Epic 120

Kyrian and Jasmine studied the letter in silence, a sense of dread creeping into their thoughts. They both knew what "come alone" implied. But they also knew that this was their best chance of finding John.

"We can't risk it," Jasmine said, her voice firm. "We need backup."

Kyrian shook his head, his eyes filled with determination. "No," he said, his voice low and resolute. "This is the only way. If we bring backup, John will know. And if he knows, he'll disappear again." Jasmine bit her lip, her mind racing. "Kyrian, we can't let you go alone," she said, her voice edged with worry. "It's too dangerous."

Kyrian reached out, placing a hand on Jasmine's arm. "I know," he said, his voice soft but sure. "But I can't ask you to come with me. If something happens, someone needs to be there to pick up the pieces."

Jasmine swallowed hard, the weight of his words sinking into her heart. She knew that he was right. "Promise me something," Jasmine said, her eyes searching Kyrian's face.

    Epic 121As the trapdoor opened beneath John, he dropped through the air, the rope snapping taut with a sickening crack. For a moment, his body jerked and convulsed, his limbs flailing in a desperate bid for life.But then, slowly, the struggles subsided, his limbs falling still.

It was a smile that spoke of dark secrets and hidden knowledge, of a sinister satisfaction in the face of death.In those final moments, John's true nature was revealed. With John's execution complete, Kyrian and Jasmine's attention turned once again to the figure who had been at the centre of their investigation all along Ken, Kyrian's foster father.Despite the dangers and uncertainties that lay ahead, they were determined to pursue the truth, no matter how elusive or dangerous it might be.As they began to retrace Ken's steps and delve deeper into his connections to the corporate world, they were hau

    Epic 122Kyrian stood before Ken, his entire body rigid with anger, every muscle and tendon coiled tightly like a spring. His eyes flashed with fury, his breathing quick and shallow as he struggled to contain his rage.The revelation of Ken's betrayal had cut deep, tearing open old wounds and unleashing a torrent of pain and anger that he had long suppressed. He felt as if he were standing on a precipice, teetering on the edge of a bottomless abyss of emotion.And yet, despite his anger, he could not bring himself to strike out at Ken. Kyrian's voice was hard and unrelenting, his words cutting through the air like blades. "Tell me about Inspector John," he demanded, his eyes fixed on Ken. "Why did you and he hate each other so much?"Ken flinched, his expression darkening as he recalled the long-standing conflict between himself and the late Inspector John. "John and I were adversaries from the beginning," he said, his voice filled with bitterness."He was always one step behind me, a

"I am only telling you what I know," he said, his voice calm and even. "I am not the only person in this world who is capable of causing harm."Kyrian's expression hardened, his voice filled with determination. Kyrian's words dripped with bitterness and sarcasm as he glared at Ken. "As it stands now, you're the only one who seems capable of causing harm in this world," he spat. "You've done nothing but bring pain and destruction to the people around you."Ken's expression grew colder, his eyes dark and unfeeling. "And what would you have me do?" he demanded. "What would you have me say to make you believe that I am not the monster you think I am?"Kyrian shook

"I know this isn't easy for either of you, but I appreciate your understanding."I just need a few more days. If Ken doesn't surrender himself by then, you have my word that I won't stop you from bringing him in."Timi nodded, his expression grim. "Just promise us one thing," he said, his voice filled with concern. "Don't take any unnecessary risks. You've been through enough already."Kyrian nodded, a small smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. "I promise," he said, his voice filled with a newfound sense of resolve."Now, if you don't mind, I need to get some fresh air," he said, his eyes flicking towards the door. "I think I could use a walk to clear my head."Timi and Jasmine exchanged a look, a smile passing between them."We'll be here when you get back," Timi said, his voice filled with warmth.

But in the meantime, we'll be searching for the leak."Kyrian nodded a fierce determination in his eyes. "We need to be extra careful," he said, his voice grave. "If Ken finds out we're on to him, he'll disappear into thin air, and we'll never get justice for your father. Timi shifted uncomfortably, his mind racing with

Why did you become what you were?"Ken remained silent, his eyes unreadable, his expression impassive. Then, he spoke, his voice low and resigned. "I have made my choices, Kyrian," he said. "Choices that I cannot undo, choices that have led me here," Ken continued, his voice growing softer, more reflective. "But I want you to know, Kyrian, that I am not without regret. I have done many things in my life, some of them good, some of them bad. But I am not beyond redemption."Kyrian stared at Ken, his heart aching with the weight of the moment. "Then why?" he asked again, his voice shaking slightly. "Why did you turn away from me? Why did you turn away from everything we believed in?" Ken's gaze

As they walked through the snow-covered forest, Kyrian turned to Jasmine and said with a mischievous grin, "You know, I think King would love the beach. Maybe we could take him there for his first birthday. We could build sandcastles, swim in the sea, and watch the sunset over the ocean."Jasmine laughed, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "That sounds perfect," she said, her voice filled with joy. "And we can take a family photo on the beach, with King laughing and playing in the sand. The days and weeks pas
