Long before Zelios raised its walls. Long before the Custodians sealed Station Zero beneath stone and silence.cHusen was simply a man. He had not been born a monster. Nor had he sought immortality. He had been a physician.

Not the kind who served kings or armies, but the kind who wandered from settlement to settlement with a satchel of herbs, worn books, and a stubborn belief that every life was worth saving. Disease had become the greatest enemy of mankind after the world collapsed. Food was s

    "Mama?" The voice came again.Soft. Small. Almost frightened. Sera didn't breathe. Nobody did. The ancient chamber remained completely still. The crimson light around the empty stone cradle pulsed once. Then again.The voice came from somewhere beyond it.,"Mama?"Sera's fingers tightened around Husen's hand. "Did you hear that?"Husen nodded. "Yes."Verek's blade was already in his hand. "Where?"He looked around the chamber. Nothing. No door. No passage. No movement. Only the cradle.Kael raised his weapon. "Could be an echo."Listener shook his head. "No."Everyone looked at him. He stared at the cradle. "It isn't an echo."Nysera's expression hardened. "What is it?"Listener didn't answer. Sera stepped toward the cradle. Husen immediately caught her wrist. "Wait."She looked back. "Why?""I don't know what's inside.""There's nothing inside.""That's what concerns me."Sera glanced at the empty cradle. He was right. It wasn't merely old. It was too clean. There was no dust inside i

  • Crimson Love   Chapter 146 : The Night She Was Born

    You remembered. The voice echoed through Sera's mind. Not loudly. It didn't need to be. It seemed to come from everywhere at once. From the cracked earth beneath her feet. From the blood moving through her veins. From somewhere behind her own heartbeat. Sera stood frozen. Crimson light crawled across the ground around her boots, spreading through the cracks in the ruined village like veins beneath skin.Husen's fingers tightened around hers. "Sera."She didn't answer. Her eyes remained fixed on the ground. The voice returned. Now remember the night you were born.Her breath caught. "No." The word came out before she could stop it.Husen turned toward her. "What did it say?"Sera looked at him. "It wants me to remember.""Remember what?""The night I was born."Husen went completely still. Mother's expression changed. Listener looked toward the earth. And for the first time since Sera had met him, he looked afraid. Not surprised. Not curious. Afraid. Sera noticed. "What?"Listener did

  • Crimson Love   Chapter 145 : memories

    The photograph trembled between Sera's fingers. Not because she was afraid. Because her hands were shaking with anger. The old image had already begun to curl at the edges, its surface scarred by years of heat and moisture. Yet the faces remained visible. Her mother. Young. Alive. Standing beneath the old oak tree that had once grown beside their house. A little girl standing in front of her. Sera. And behind them Husen. Younger. But unmistakable. His dark hair fell loosely around his face, and his expression carried none of the cold amusement he wore now. He looked almost human. Almost peaceful. And beside him Nysera. Sera slowly lowered the photograph. Her eyes moved toward the vampire queen.Nysera hadn't spoken since admitting she had been there. The silence between them had become heavier than the ruins surrounding them. "You knew my mother."Nysera didn't deny it. "Yes.""You knew me." A pause. "Yes."Sera's jaw tightened. "And you knew what happened that night."Nysera looked a

    The hidden passage seemed to have no end. They moved through darkness with only the faint crimson glow from the walls to guide them. No one spoke. Behind them, distant explosions continued to shake the tunnels. The Council had entered Station Zero. But they hadn't followed. Not yet. Sera walked beside Husen. Their hands were still joined. She hadn't let go. Neither had he.,Ahead of them, Mother walked silently. Behind her came Nysera and Verek. Kael followed several steps behind them. Listener remained at the rear. The enormous creature walked last. Every few seconds, its claws brushed against the stone. A reminder that something ancient was moving through the darkness with them.Sera finally broke the silence. "How much farther?"Mother didn't turn. "Not far.""You said that ten minutes ago.""I wasn't measuring time."Sera sighed.Husen glanced at her. "You sound impatient.""I am.""Good."She looked at him. "Why is that good?""It means you're not afraid."Sera frowned. "I can be

    The message remained on the screen. SOURCE CONFIRMED.Then, MOTHER LOCATED.And finally, SUBJECT SERA REQUIRED FOR EXTRACTION.Nobody spoke. The words glowed across the old terminal, bathing the chamber in a faint crimson light. Sera stared at them."They knew."Kael slowly approached the screen. "They didn't know."He examined the flickering symbols. "They know now."Verek glanced toward the ceiling. "How long?"Kael checked the machine. "Not long."Nysera's expression darkened. "They'll already be moving."Husen looked toward the broken entrance. "Then we leave."Mother didn't move. "No."Everyone looked at her.Husen frowned. "No?"Mother looked toward the ceiling. "They are not coming here."She paused. "They are coming for her."Her gaze settled on Sera.Sera felt the weight of it. "For me."Mother nodded. "The Council has spent generations searching for Crimson Blood. They believe you are the source."Sera looked at her. "But I'm not.""No." Mother's expression softened. "You ar

    The stone beneath them cracked again. A long fracture raced across the flooded floor. Everyone stepped back. Even Listener. The creature stood completely still. Its enormous body was facing the darkness beyond the broken doors. Its head was lowered.Almost reverently. "Mother."The word echoed through Station Zero.Sera stared into the darkness. "Who is she?"Nobody answered. Husen's hand tightened around hers.Nysera looked toward Listener. "You knew."Listener didn't respond.Verek stepped closer. "You knew."Still nothing. Verek grabbed Listener by the shoulder and turned him around."Who is the Mother?"Listener's eyes remained fixed on the darkness. "You don't want to meet her."Verek's expression hardened. "That wasn't my question."Listener finally looked at him. "She is the reason we exist."Silence. Nysera's face lost its color.Husen slowly turned toward her. "You knew too."Nysera looked away. "Not enough.""Then tell us what you know."Nysera's gaze returned to the darknes
