I went up to her, grabbed her shirt, and enveloped her in it, giving her a comforting embrace and patting her on the shoulder. "Why didn't you kill him?" I inquired. "Because I was a captive, and I was terrified. Before you, Zaria, I had lost all hope. If I had made a move, his formidable security system would have shielded him. He doesn't kill his enemies, he drives them to madness through torture," she clarified, holding onto me tightly and trembling. "I get it," I replied, turning to my mother, who understood my intentions. I knew there would be a massive argument about this, but at least she was on my side. "Tell me what Asher intends to do," I asked as we brought her inside. "Before we begin, I want to know one thing. If Asher wanted to turn me into what I am today, why did he hire someone to kill me during the tournament?" I questioned. "I'm sorry, Zaria. It wasn't Asher, it was me who hired that person to kill you!" She left me speechless. "How generous of you. Can you

Which means I developed feelings for him, President Alpha was my brother and I desperately wanted to save him from the doom that awaited him. In a bold move, I decided to approach the president himself, hoping to find a way to stop the catastrophe. As expected, he refused to cooperate. However, when I decided to fake my pregnancy, surprisingly, it worked. This led him to reconsider his decision to launch the nuclear attack on Beta, but unfortunately, it was already too late. Just when it seemed like all hope was lost, an unforeseen event unfolded, that no one expected in the slightest. A technical malfunction caused the missile to crash right into the center of both nations, resulting in a catastrophic accident that plunged the entire world into darkness as electricity was knocked out on a global scale. The explosion wreaked havoc, shattering even the crystal that held the cure within. As it turns out, there were two more identical replicas of the crystal, each containing the sa

"Do you really think I can't change my mind?" He was furious, but there was a hint of amusement in his eyes as he watched my daring move.As I approached him, I couldn't ignore the countless guns aimed at me, with snipers positioned in the towers.Despite the danger, I managed to get close to him. He raised his hand, and everyone eagerly awaited his command to shoot.There was something in my eyes that unsettled him, and I realized he was afraid of losing his power. He feared growing old and sick, or getting minced at the hands of his victims. "Don't you want to know what my abilities can offer, Mr. President?" I smirked, whispering near his ear."I'd rather kill you right now than say that you scare me!" He muttered."Then don't let anyone see your fear. Instead, let them believe that we are allies.Tell them that you sent me on a mission to find the cure!" I circled around him, hands folded behind my back."No one needs to know anything about Jaganod," I shrugged."Why are you volu

I turned around, closing my eyes tightly, my heart racing with fear. "If it means catching a glimpse of you, I willingly give you permission," I whispered.His warm breath tickled my neck as his hand wrapped around my waist, holding me firmly.Pulling me closer, he brought his mouth close to my ear and softly kissed me."It's going to hurt," he murmured.I held onto his hand, which was still tightly gripping my stomach, preparing myself for what was to come.His breath grew heavier, surrounding me with warmth, and in an instant, I felt numbness take over. Then, I heard him whisper again."I wish we had more time!" He exclaimed, feeling a sudden prick on the lower left side of my neck.As I groaned in pain, I realized something was forcefully being inserted into my flesh, like a slow bullet.In that moment, I continued to cling onto his hand, gripping it even tighter.He responded by wrapping his other hand around my shoulder, holding onto me tightly.His whispered words reached my ear

While I was still processing, Kai diagnosed some strange behavior on the tracker's data.He took some time to figure out that it was a timer. "This bastard planted a time bomb in her body! The timer has just begun." Kai exclaimed, smashing the table in anger."How long do we have?" Enzo asked."Not very long!" Kai answered.Veronica, overwhelmed with guilt that she wasn't even responsible for, asked, "What are we going to do now?"Enzo inquired, "You mentioned we have a supporting hologram in our tracker.Does the anonymous tracker have the same capability? and can you replace that hologram with a recorded message?""I think I can!" Kai responded.Concerned, Enzo asked, "Will they notice if we try to contact her through this?""No, it's just a time bomb and a tracker," Kai reassured. "What's your plan?" he asked."Asher is a lunatic. He must have calculated the timing perfectly, knowing when she would reach Jaga... freak or whatever it's called.Once she reaches the jaguar, the bomb w
