Fractured Promises
Last Updated:
2025-08-30 06:17:33The warmth of that moment lingered between them, fragile and fleeting, like sunlight breaking through storm clouds. Jessica wanted to hold onto it, to believe that nothing could shatter what she and Romeo were rebuilding. But reality had a way of creeping in, of reminding them that the world outside their bubble wasn't so forgiving.
Romeo's phone buzzed. Once. Twice. Relentless. Jessica stiffened as he hesitated to reach for it. His eyes flickered to hers, gulit written in the silence. "Are you going to answer it?" she asked sofly, though her heart was already racing. He didn't move. "It's business". Her lips pressed into a thin line. Business. That was always his shield, the wall he used when he didn't want to explain. She had promised herself she wouldn't doubt him, but old scars burned fresh whenever secrets lingered between them. "Business or trouble?"

The room was silent except for the faint hum of the rain outside. Jessica stood frozen, eyes fixed on the message pulsing across the screen.You thought the fire died. But some embers never fade. Romeo moved first, leaning over her shoulder, scanning the encryption signature. "It's not from any of our frequencies. Whoever sent this... they're using Syndicate-grade coding".Daniel frowned, pulling a tablet from the table. "That's impossible. The Syndicate's servers were vaporized in the blast. I watched the core melt"."Then someone rebuilt", Jessica said quietly.She turned toward them, her face lit by the flickering blue glow of the monitor. The firelight from the ruins outside danced in her eyes but it wasn't fear that burned there anymore. It was the same cold, relentless determination that had carried her through every battle."Trace it", she ordered. Daniel's fingers flew over the keys. "Trying. The signal's
365 Days With My Fake Husband The Queit After the Storm
The city had begun to breath again. Days had passed since the Syndicate's fall, but the smoke still lingered like the ghost of every battle fought beneath it's shadow. Streets once soaked in blood were now being scrubbed clean, glass replaced, walls patched. Life, cautious and fragile, was returning. Jessica stood by the window of the temporary safehouse an apartment overlooking the ruins. Below, workers and volunteers moved like ants, rebuilding what the war had tried to erase. The silence felt unnatural after years of gunfire and sirens.Her reflection stared back at her in the glass tired glass, lips pressed in thought, bandages around her arms. The kind of look that didn't belong to the same woman who once fought through fire and betrayal.Romeo entered quietly, his shoulder still bandaged. He carried two mugs of coffee, the faint aroma of something almost normal cutting through the metalic scent of ash that clung to everything.
365 Days With My Fake Husband Ashes of Tomorrow
The city was quiet for the first time in months. Not silent never silent but the chaos that had once ruled the skyline was gone. Smoke curled lazily from the ruins where the Syndicate's headquarters had stood, glowing faintly beneath the broken moonlight.Jessica stood at the edge of the bridge, the wind lifting her hair as dawn crept over the horizon. The air still carried the scent of gunpower and ash, but beneath it was something new hope, fragile and trembling, like the first beneath after drowning. Romeo joined her, limping slightly, his arm bandaged. He didn't say anything at first. He didn't have to. The suprise painted faces in gold, and for once, they both let themselves breath."It's strange", he murmured, watching the light spill across the river. "We fought for this moment for so long... and now that it's here, I don't even know what to feel".Jessica's lips curved faintly, the kind of smile that came for exhaustion rather than joy.
365 Days With My Fake Husband Into the Inferno
The city groaned beneath the weight of it's own destruction. Smoke coiled upward like dying prayers, wrapping the skyline in gray despair. Somewhere beneath it all beneath the chaos, the ruins, and the rain the Syndicate pulsed like a heartbeat of darkness. Jessica led by the way through the shattered streets, boots crunching over glass and ash. Every corner whispered danger. Every shadow carried memory. Romeo and Daniel moved in sync behind her, weapons drawn, eyes sharp.The storm hadn't stopped since the first explosion it only grew louder, angrier, as if sky itself wanted vengeance. "Signal's strong", Daniel muttered, glancing at the handheld tracker. "We're close. Less than half a mile underground".Jessica's eyes flicked toward the collapsed overpass ahead. "Then we go through".They descended into the old subway tunnels, air thick with dust and the metalic scent of brunt circuitry. Graffiti lined the walls remnants of a forgotten
365 Days With My Fake Husband The Storm Unleashed
The night air trembled with the growl of engines. Floodlights cut through the mist, turning the ruined skyline into a battlefield of shadows and steel. From the rooftops, snipers took position their laser sights tracing silent promises of death.Jessica crouched behind a collapsed wall, scanning the streets below. Every instinct screamed that this wasn't just another ambush it was an extermination. "Phase Two", she whispered, voice laced with dread. "They're going all in". Romeo checked his weapon, his jaw tight. "Then so do we".The roar of a gunship echoed above them, shaking the ground as spotlights swept across the debris. Through the static of their comms, a familiar voice crackled. "Targets located. Eliminate without delay".Jessica's blood ran cold. That voice... it was the same operative who had betrayed them back at the safehouse. The same one who had almost killed her. She glanced
365 Days With My Fake Husband Shadows of Retaliation
The morning after the explosion came in fragments smoke still lingering in the air, a faint metalic scent of burned steel carried by the wind. Jessica stood on the rooftop of the abandoned factory they'd turned into a temporary base. The city below still buzzed with sirens, chaos, and speculation. News drones zipped overhead, broadcasting flames and broken streets. They had struck a nerve. And now, the Syndicate would srike back. Romeo walked up behind her, the faint limp from last night's blast barely hidden. "We don't have long", he said queitly, his voice steady but taut with exhaustion. "Reports say the Syndicate's already regrouping. They lost suppiles, not soldiers". Jessica didn't look away from the skyline. "Then we hit them again. Harder this time". Michael appeared at the doorway, tapping at a glowing tablet filled with surveillance data. "I intercepted one of their encrypted transmissions", he said. "Th
