The night sky was a deep, foreboding shade of indigo, with clouds that seemed to swirl and twist like living shadows. The air was heavy with an unsettling stillness, as if the very wind itself was holding its breath in anticipation of something.The stars above twinkled like icy pinpricks, casting an eerie glow over the landscape. The world was bathed in an unnatural silence, as if all living creatures were hiding, waiting for some unknown terror to pass.The moon, a silver crescent, hung low in the sky, casting long, ominous shadows across the ground. The night seemed to be holding its breath, waiting for some ancient evil to stir, some long-forgotten terror to awaken from its slumber.In this quiet, ominous night, anything seemed possible, and the darkness seemed to whisper terrible secrets to those who dared to listen.Serpens stood in front of the mirror, adjusting his shirt collar and running a hand through his hair, as he prepared to attend the opening ceremony of Jack Brunner's
The drive to the venue was quiet and Serpens was lost in his thoughts. He gazed out the window, the city lights blurring as they sped through the streets. Lan was sitting right beside him in front, but she remained silent, focused on the road ahead, as though she was the one driving. After a few minutes, they arrived at the grand building of the Brynner's Artificial Intelligence Agency, illuminated with festive lights and the hum of chatter and music seeping through the open doors.The whole place was now looking different from the way Serpens had seen it earlier during the day.As he stepped out of the car, he took a deep breath, steeling himself for the evening ahead. Everything was beginning to look like how he had once experienced it, when it was Rose who had invited him for the party and had sent her driver to come and pick him up.While he was still there waiting for Serena to come out, another car pulled up in front of them. Flynn and Jeremy stepped out of the car, their arri
Flynn, with a warm and genuine smile, navigated through the crowd, his eyes fixed on Serena sitting alone. She seemed lost in thought, observing the vibrant party scene before her with a mixture of curiosity and longing.Ever since he laid his eyes on Serena, he hadn't been able to take his eyes off her. She had captivated his heart and he just couldn't wait to have a conversation with her, and you get to know her better.The music pulsed around Serena, the laughter and chatter of the other guests creating a stark contrast to her solitude. Flynn approached her, his confidence evident in his stride, his eyes never leaving hers."Hi, mind if I join you?" he asked, his voice friendly and gentle, as if not wanting to startle her.Serena looked up, startled, and then smiled, her eyes sparkling with a hint of surprise. "Not at all," she replied, her voice barely above a whisper, as if unsure of herself."I could do with some company," she added, her smile widening.Flynn sat down beside her
"Welcome," the young waitress greeted with a warm smile as Flynn and Serena settled into their seats at the bustling central café in Lennox Mall. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee and the soft murmur of conversations filled the air, creating a cozy atmosphere that invited them to relax.As the waitress handed them the menus, she paused, her eyes lingering on Serena. "Sir, your girlfriend is very beautiful, just like me," she said, her voice playful yet laced with sincerity.Serena's cheeks flushed a soft pink at the unexpected compliment. She looked down, her fingers tracing the edge of the menu as a shy smile spread across her lips. While she was no stranger to being admired, the candid remark from the waitress caught her off guard, filling her with a mix of embarrassment and flattery.Flynn, noticing Serena's reaction, couldn’t help but feel a surge of pride. The fact that he was yet to ask Serena out officially, and was already being regarded as his girlfriend, made him feel like
As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a warm orange glow over the bustling city of Draketwon, a sense of excitement and anticipation filled the air. Lady Kim with a heart full of love and a smile on her face, slid behind the wheel of her car and began the winding journey to the cozy cottage where she and Jack had agreed to meet.The GPS led her through a series of twists and turns, each one revealing a new breathtaking view of the countryside. She couldn't hide the optimism that washed over her, as she looked forward to a breathtaking romantic episode with Jack.The sky transformed into a kaleidoscope of pinks, purples, and blues as the stars started to twinkle like diamonds scattered across the velvet expanse. The gentle breeze carried the sweet scent of blooming wildflowers, filling the car with an intoxicating aroma that heightened her senses and made her heart skip a beat.As she drove, the trees grew taller and the road narrower, until she finally turned onto a secluded pa
Serpens arrived at the hospital, his heart filled with excitement and relief. He had been waiting for this moment for what felt like an eternity - the moment when Rose would finally be discharged and he could take her home. He just couldn't contain the excitement that surged through him when Dr. Sun called to inform him that Rose was ready to be discharged home. Finally, he'll be with the girl he loves once again.He made his way to her room, where Doctor Sun was waiting to brief him on her condition."Good news, Serpens," Doctor Sun said with a smile. "She's made a full recovery and is ready to go home. Just make sure she gets plenty of rest and follows up with her medication."Serpens beamed with joy, feeling a weight lift off his shoulders. He thanked Doctor Sun, who quickly helped him up call Inspector Lui, who was already at the hospital, to come and help Serpens take Rose home.Together, the three of them made their way to the car, with Inspector Lui taking the driver's seat wh
The evening unfolded like a dream, with a candlelit dinner set before Serpens and Rose, a soft music playing in the background, and tender moments shared by the two of them.It's been exactly two weeks since Rose www discharged from the hospital, and she had fully recovered. Memories of how she landed up in the hospital finally came back to her, as she recalled the night of the storm and how Winter had tortured her cruelly.Serpens apologized and Rose forgave him. She really hated fighting with Serpens, and now that she was back, she wanted them to make up for all the time she was away in the hospital, looking forward to a romantic night with Serpens.Being with Serpens once again, made those feelings resurface, and she yearned for some intimacy, some shared moments of emotional connection.The night was a magical one, a night to remember, a night that would stay with them forever. Serpens' heart swelled with joy as he looked into Rose's eyes. Feeling a surge of confidence. The atmo
As the class section came to a close in Draketown University, students began to pack up their belongings and file out of the classroom. Serpens, still gathering his things, was greeted by Tiara, who approached him with a curious expression."Hey, Serpens! Welcome back! I've missed you in class," Tiara said, eyeing him with a hint of concern. "Why haven't you been coming to class for the past three days? You weren't sick, were you?"Serpens looked up, feigning surprise, but a hint of a smile played on his lips. "Oh, I just had some personal stuff to take care of," he replied, trying to brush it off. "I'm fine, thanks for asking."Things were really different in this parallel universe where Serpens now lived, as everyone's seems to be friendly with him, even Tiara, reminding him of his time in the future where Tiara had been one of his most helpful allies.Tiara raised an eyebrow but didn't press the issue. Instead, she waited for Serpens to finish packing up his belongings, chatting wi
