    Summary

    “You can’t keep controlling my life like this,” he whispered, his voice barely above a breath.
    Zee stilled above him.
    For a moment, the room was too quiet.
    Then, slowly, Zee’s hand reached out, fingers tracing over Nunew’s cheek with a tenderness that felt wrong—because it came from him.
    “I’m not controlling you,” Zee said, voice steady, measured. But there was something dangerous curling beneath the surface. “I just can’t do anything without you.”
    His grip on Nunew’s chin tightened—not enough to hurt, but enough to make him listen. Enough to force him to understand.
    Nunew’s throat tightened.
    “Zee…” He tried again, softer this time, trying to reach him. “You have to let me breathe. I need to be able to do things on my own. To think for myself. To—”
    “No.”
