Veyra’s POV

The sound came again.

Cairos immediately raised his weapon, his entire body becoming tense as he stared toward the wall. I stood behind him, trying to see through the darkness while another deep metallic scrape moved through the building, making the floor vibrate beneath our feet.

“What is that?” I whispered.

“I don’t know.”

Cairos moved closer to the wall and listened carefully, his eyes fixed on the darkness as though he expected something to come through i

  • Apocalypse: My Husband's Stepbrother Is The 001 Commader   In Built

    Chapter Forty EighrChapter Veyra’s POVBy the time I returned home, I was completely exhausted.My clothes were dusty from walking around the construction area all day, my feet hurt from being on them for hours, and my head was still filled with everything that needed to be done before the building could properly start operating.There were still workers I needed to speak with, equipment that had not arrived, rooms that needed to be repaired, and several parts of the system that I needed to go through again because I wanted everything to be done properly.I had expected to walk into the house, go straight to my room, take a shower, and finally rest.Instead, the moment I entered the living room, I saw Astra sitting there.She was looking at something on her phone, but she raised her eyes as soon as she heard me.For a moment, neither of us said anything.Then she put her phone down.“I heard about the little thing you are doing.”I stopped walking.My tiredness almost disappeared be

  • Apocalypse: My Husband's Stepbrother Is The 001 Commader   Information

    Chapter 47Veyra’s POVThe next morning, I left the house before anyone could ask where I was going, carrying the folder I had prepared the night before and the rough plans I had drawn for the defense information system I wanted to build.I did not tell Astra.I did not want her to know yet.She had already involved herself too much in my life, and this was something I wanted to build without anyone interfering before I even had the chance to start.The land Cairos had given me was on the eastern side of the settlement, far enough from the main buildings to give me space, but close enough for people to reach it without difficulty.When I arrived, I stopped my vehicle and stepped outside.For a few seconds, I simply looked at the land.It was bigger than I had expected, with an open area in the center and a clear road leading toward it, while a few old structures stood farther away that could be repaired and used instead of being destroyed.I opened my folder and looked at the plans ag

  • Apocalypse: My Husband's Stepbrother Is The 001 Commader   Choose Between

    Chapter Forty-Six : Choose Between Cairos’s POVAstra walked into the room just as Veyra was preparing to leave. “I want to see you, Cairos.”I looked at her for a moment before turning back to Veyra, who had already picked up her things.“I’ll leave you two to talk,” she said.“You don’t have to,” I replied.Veyra gave me a small smile. “It is fine. I have already said what I needed to say.”I knew she was talking about the land, and I was about to remind her that I would take care of it when she walked toward the door.She left without noticing that she had forgotten the list she had brought.I watched the door close behind her, then turned toward Astra.“What do you want?”Astra walked closer. “There is something I need to discuss with you.”Before she could continue, her eyes fell on the papers Veyra had left on the table.She picked them up. “What is this?”I held out my hand. “Give it to me.”She looked at the first page, then turned to the next one.Her eyes stopped when she s

  • Apocalypse: My Husband's Stepbrother Is The 001 Commader   My Own Defense

    Chapter 45 : My Own Defense Veyra’s POVI did not sleep much that night not because I was crying over what happened at the Defense Center, but because I had already made my decision.If they no longer wanted me there, then I would stop wasting my energy trying to prove that I deserved a place I had already earned years ago.There was something I had wanted to build for a long time, but I had always pushed it aside because the Underworld needed me, the Defense Center needed me, and there was always another emergency that demanded my attention.Now, I finally had the time.By morning, I had already gone through the old plans I had kept in my room, changed some of the designs, removed the parts that depended on the Underworld’s system, and started making a completely new plan.It would be my own defense information system, no government would control it, no Underworld official would own it, no one would have to pay to use it.If someone was in danger and needed information that could h

  • Apocalypse: My Husband's Stepbrother Is The 001 Commader   Determination

    Chapter 44Veyra’s POVBy the time I returned home that evening, I felt like I had lived through an entire week in a single day.I was exhausted, but it was not the kind of exhaustion that came from physical work. My body was fine, but my mind felt heavy from everything that had happened, and every time I thought about the empty desk, the missing files, and the way that employee had stood there and told me that I no longer had a place in the Defense Center, anger rose inside me all over again.I had spent five years of my life in that place.Five years of waking up every morning knowing that hundreds, sometimes thousands, of people depended on the decisions I made behind those screens. I had worked through nights without sleeping, stayed awake during emergencies, fixed problems that could have cost lives, and built systems that people now used as if they had always existed.Yet in one day, everything connected to my name had been removed.I pushed the door open and walked inside witho

  • Apocalypse: My Husband's Stepbrother Is The 001 Commader   Position Taken

    Chapter 43 Veyra’s POVI woke up that morning feeling tired.Not the kind of tired that disappeared after sleeping for a few hours, but the kind that settled deep inside me and made even getting out of bed feel difficult.So much had happened in such a short time.I had lost my position as Head of Defense.I had watched Astra take the position I had spent five years building and protecting.I had tried to accept it because I believed I had made the right choice.Then there was everything happening at home.Astra was there almost every day, Zuri was becoming more attached to her, and I was slowly beginning to feel like a stranger in a place that had once felt like home.Even Cairos seemed different lately.I could not explain it, but something about him had changed.I was tired of thinking about all of it.That morning, I decided to focus on work.Even though I was no longer the Head of Defense, I still had a place in the Defense Center. At least, that was what I believed.I got dress
