"I'm really sorry, but I've been following you! I secretly placed a tracker under your vehicle because I was so curious about this place and I wanted to make sure if you were truly against Asher!"

She nervously bit her lip. "I shouldn't have doubted you!" She then smiled.

"Can you please take me to my biological mother?" I asked, and she nodded in agreement.

I decided to bring Kai along with me, but I left Enzo behind because he needed time to recover. Also, I didn't want to risk exposing him to any more danger.

We eventually found the hidden city not too far from where we had discovered it before.

"It is right here!" I exclaimed.

"We can't move islands or planets, but we managed to push it a little farther. But we cloaked it!" she explained.

As we got off our vehicle, Kai was captivated by the beauty of this place. He couldn't take his eyes off it.

With every gun pointed at him, Kai raised his hands in surrender. "I come in peace!" he exclaimed, still in awe.

    It was past midnight, the VIPs had already retired to their quarters.Unlike any other night, this particular night had a chilling atmosphere.Asher was strolling on his terrace when a snowflake landed on the fence."I almost forgot what a snowflake looked like!" he exclaimed.As soon as he touched it, the snowflake disappeared."Why are you so worried, my love? We have artificial ways to create snow!" His wife appeared from inside the room and comforted him by rubbing his back."But do you realize how long it has been since it last snowed?" He asked, staring at her with wide eyes."Of course, I do!" she smiled. "Things are changing, perhaps for the better," she added."We can't let this happen," he said, sounding concerned."What power do you have to control the weather?" she asked, troubled."I believe I am the only one with the power to change the weather!" He clenched his fist.His wife, still troubled, rubbed his shoulder again. "You need to rest, my love! You have important thin

    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

    I was at the medical facility because they were conducting some tests on Calista to verify her claims. "I've endured pricks all over my body for longer than you can imagine, do you really think a few tests will bother me?" That's what she said when I asked for her permission. Finally, after a brain scan, she came out feeling slightly dizzy. "Are you alright?" I asked. "I think so!" she replied, and we escorted her to the main hall.It resembled a grand throne room with its never-ending pointed ceiling.The curved structure, ethereal brightness, and delicate engravings added to its beauty.The floor was so shiny that it looked like it was made of glass. In the center of the hall, there was a stunning dark gray round glass table surrounded by elegant dark gray chairs.The table had golden borders that matched the golden engraved circles on the chairs. Attached to the center wall was a slim, throne-like chair with a similar pattern, where the leader of the unseen sat.Her name is A

    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.

    “It will basically cool the weather down, then what’s the point?” I asked, confused."It doesn't really matter what the weather is like," she said."I never mentioned this before, but like every other Orphic, I have powers too. I can see the deaths of the people I meet. I saw his death and I had to tell him," she explained."I saw him die during a natural snowfall, and ever since then, he's been afraid of snow.So before the weather changes naturally, he wants to change it manually. And if he somehow succeeds in erupting the volcano, which he will, it will also bring down the mountains that have been keeping the Creepers away," she continued.I couldn't help but interrupt her. "The Creepers will be free to come and go as they please!"The fear and confusion among the people was evident."We need to find a way to stop him," I muttered."But how? He refuses to listen to anyone," she replied."What if I propose a deal to him?" I suggested."Asher is always intrigued by something that int

    "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

    He described himself as wearing a red and black flannel shirt, so I dressed up and went to the restaurant."Veronica couldn't contain her laughter as she continued, "As he had described, he was indeed wearing a red and black flannel shirt, but he turned out to be almost as old as my father!"I turned around in an attempt to escape, but he called out my name.Without hesitation, I swiftly turned back and forced a grin. His gaze remained fixed on me as he stood up and offered me a seat.I was in search of a companion, but I was not desperate enough to date an older gentleman.In a matter of seconds, I made a decision and began limping towards him.His smile faded, and his face turned pale, as if he had just seen a ghost.He sat down and stood up a few times throughout our lunch, and it we mostly remained quiet. I chewed my food with a loud chapping sound and had my drink, gulping it down as if I were a wild creature, causing the liquid to cascade down from my mouth.Poor guy lost his a

    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

    And it had already laid the egg in that immortal’s body, forcing it to survive. While Oliver was watching similar, terrifying behavior of the bacteria before his eyes in that container, he was writing down its behavior.But then, something else happened.A flicker of motion caught his peripheral vision, subtle at first—but unmistakable. Something was moving. And not just within the container. Oliver slowly turned, every nerve on edge, his heart climbing into his throat. The immortal had risen. Somehow, impossibly, it was back on its feet. And it was moving. Toward him.The camera, still rolling, caught the moment. The sudden panic in Oliver’s eyes. His desperate dash. The immortal pursuing him with inhuman speed. The last thing captured on the footage was Oliver sprinting toward the freezer room as the screen static took over. I had spent days trying to pinpoint where this footage was taken. If it was found in those old, labs, then the location had to be close to them, right? Th

    Kai turned toward where I pointed, just as the shadow shifted again—this time emerging from behind the rocks and stepping into the light.My breath hitched.Cassian.He stood beneath the tower with both hands raised, stepping cautiously forward as if walking into enemy territory.“What the hell is he doing here?” I whispered, lowering my gun just slightly but keeping my aim locked.Before either of us could speak, a burst of static crackled through my communicator. I slapped it, and Jennifer’s voice broke through.“Ella was sleep-talking,” she said, her voice sounding both confused and cautious. “She kept repeating something… *‘No matter what happens, don’t turn him down this time.’*”I blinked, my heart skipping a beat. “What does that mean?”“I don’t know,” Jennifer replied quickly. “I just thought you should know. It felt… important.”The message echoed in my head as I descended the tower behind Kai. The sound of our boots on the metal stairs seemed too loud in the eerie stillness.

  • Scorching grounds and helpless soul

    "I'm hurt," he admitted. His words were slow, pained, as if even speaking drained what little strength he had left. He clutched his chest, his fingers trembling as he pressed against the sharp, radiating pain. "The place is on fire… I need to find another way out." He coughed violently, doubling over as smoke filled his lungs. Every breath burned. "Please, stay away from here," he warned, his voice dropping to a mere whisper. "There are live wires everywhere. This place… it could explode any second." The fear in his tone made my blood run cold. My hands curled into fists, nails digging into my palms. "Please, just be safe!" I begged, my voice breaking. The thought of losing him sent an icy shiver through my entire body. There was a pause. Then, with quiet determination, he said, "I promise—I’ll come back to you." It was a vow spoken in faith, but deep down, even he wasn’t sure he could keep it. Shoving the doubt aside, he turned, his eyes scanning the smoke-filled room for

  • No time to lose

    Kai stared at her, the weight of her words pressing down on him like a heavy shroud. “It was so hard to convince you,” Ella said, her voice softening, laced with sorrow. “To make you believe that I had to go back through that portal, that I needed to find *this* version of you—to warn you. But I did it, Kai. I convinced you to let me go, and here I am.” She gripped his arm again, her knuckles white with effort. “Don’t let all of that be in vain. Please. I’m begging you.” Her breaths came in shallow, rapid gasps now, her eyes searching his for any glimmer of understanding. “You have to warn Zaria. Tell her what’s coming. The attack—the devastation—it will be unlike anything you can imagine. If you don’t act now, it’ll be too late.” Kai stared into her pleading eyes, his heart pounding. Every word she’d spoken rang with tension, and though the weight of her tale seemed impossible, there was something in her voice, her expression, that broke through his doubt if he even had any, an

  • Crazy Theory

    Ella was lying on the floor in the corner of the room, her face contorted in pain, her hands gripping the sides of the sheet under her. Her breaths came in labored gasps, her body trembling with the effort. Jennifer and a few others stood around her, their faces tight with worry. The air was thick with tension, the sound of Ella’s cries filling the space.Kai rushed to her side, dropping to his knees beside her. He took her hand in his, his heart breaking at the sight of her in so much pain. “I’m here, Ella. I’m right here,” he whispered, his voice thick with emotion.Ella turned her head toward him, her eyes glistening with tears. “Kai,” she gasped, her voice weak but filled with relief. “I…I thought you wouldn’t make it.”“I’m here, love,” he reassured her, squeezing her hand. “I’m not going anywhere.”Jennifer moved closer, her expression serious. “She’s in active labor, Kai. The baby is coming, and we don’t have much time.”Kai nodded, his mind spinning as he tried to focus. He co

  • What no one expected

    As Jennifer struggled to reach Enzo, the tension was visible. When she finally succeeded in connecting with me, her voice brimmed with a mix of joy and nervous energy. “We’re finally connected to the system!” she exclaimed, her excitement spilling through the static of our communication line.A grin spread across my face, and I turned to Kai, who immediately understood what had happened without needing an explanation. My expression said it all.“Enzo?” I called out, trying to connect with him directly. The line was dead silent. My smile vanished as quickly as it had spread, and an uneasy weight settled in my chest. My pulse quickened, each beat echoing in my ears as I glanced nervously at Kai. “He’ll be alright,” he reassured me, his voice steady but strained. Before either of us could take action, a deep, echoing hum filled the air, overpowering even the sound of our racing hearts. The noise was overwhelming, drawing our attention toward the city gates. With the restored power, the

  • Wrecking Paradise

    He pressed himself against the wall, trying to steady his breathing. The ground beneath him groaned, a sharp reminder of the fragile state of the entire building. He couldn’t afford to stop now—not when so much was at stake.Pushing forward, Enzo reached a junction where the stairs split into multiple paths. Consulting his mental map of the city’s layout, he chose the left corridor, knowing it led directly to the control room.As he advanced, the air grew colder, and the flickering lights overhead cast dark shadows.Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his side. Enzo stumbled, clutching his rib as he gasped for breath. He had hit a loose beam that swung down unexpectedly, narrowly missing his head but cutting through his torso.Blood trickled from a small cut, staining his shirt. Ignoring the pain, he pressed on, his strong will fueling his determination.The corridor opened into a vast, open space—the control room. The room was a chaotic mess of shattered consoles, broken screens, and

  • A Chance of Survival

    “No, we can’t retreat!” I shot back, my mind racing. “If we fall back now, we’ll just be leading them to the survivors! Who knows what these things are capable of if they breach the bunker?”The immortal army was unstoppable, their unsettling faces and wide-open mouths still screaming as they marched forward. The situation was dire, and every second felt like we were inching closer to doom. Then, an idea struck me. “We’ll lead them somewhere else instead! Somewhere they won’t follow the others!” Without waiting for a response, I took off running toward the right, motioning for the others to follow.“There are plenty of ruined buildings to the east,” Kai called after me, sprinting to catch up. “We can find cover there, maybe even set a trap!”"Exactly! We just need to buy the rest of the team some time to regroup and bring the right equipment,” I agreed as we bolted toward the Ferric Burg, a place that had once been a bustling district but was now reduced to crumbling ruins after the a

  • Caught in the Tide

    I yelled for everyone to move. "Run!" I shouted, leading the charge as we turned and sprinted away from the impending disaster. But we were too close. The ground shook violently beneath us, the force of the lab’s landing sending a powerful jolt through the battlefield. The shockwave hit us hard, like a giant hand swatting us aside. We flew, bodies tossed into the air like ragdolls, crashing to the ground in a brutal cascade.I groaned, feeling the sharp sting of pain from the fall. My vision blurred for a moment as I pushed myself up, dirt and debris filling the air around me. Many of us survived the impact, but not everyone was so lucky. As I looked around, the grim reality hit me. The number of those who fell, the martyrs—was far greater than the survivors.I pushed myself up from the debris, my body aching as I limped up to my feet. Dust and rubble filled the air, and the sight before me was nothing short of devastating. Those who hadn’t made it halfway to the bunker were crushed,
