Maya stood frozen in the doorway, her mind racing. Four pairs of eyes stared at her, waiting. Dr. Mitchell had just confirmed her worst fear—two weeks, not three. The apocalypse was accelerating even faster than she'd calculated.

"I..." Maya's voice came out hoarse. She cleared her throat. "I've been tracking the same patterns. I have data that might help."

One of the other scientists, a thin man with wire-rimmed glasses, scoffed. "You're not a meteorologist. Your email didn't mention any crede

    Maya stood frozen in the doorway, her mind racing. Four pairs of eyes stared at her, waiting. Dr. Mitchell had just confirmed her worst fear—two weeks, not three. The apocalypse was accelerating even faster than she'd calculated."I..." Maya's voice came out hoarse. She cleared her throat. "I've been tracking the same patterns. I have data that might help."One of the other scientists, a thin man with wire-rimmed glasses, scoffed. "You're not a meteorologist. Your email didn't mention any credentials.""Dr. Rahman," Dr. Mitchell said sharply. "Let her speak."Maya stepped into the office, closing the door behind her. The room was small, crammed with filing cabinets and stacks of research papers. The large screen dominated one wall, showing temperature projections that made her stomach clench. She'd lived through those numbers once. She knew exactly what they meant—death on a scale that would dwarf any natural disaster in human history."I'm not a scientist," Maya admitted. "But I've b

  • Frozen Revenge    Chapter 7

    Maya's apartment had become a war room. Her laptop sat open on the coffee table, surrounded by printed weather reports, climate data charts, and three empty coffee cups. She'd been awake for sixteen hours straight, cross-referencing every piece of meteorological information she could find with her memories of the first timeline.The results terrified her.In her previous life, the apocalypse had hit on January 15th. She remembered the date with crystal clarity—it was etched into her soul like a scar. The temperature had dropped from fifteen degrees to negative forty in less than six hours. The power grid had failed. People had frozen to death in their homes, in their cars, in the streets.But that was supposed to be five weeks away.Now, staring at the data on her screen, Maya realized with growing horror that the timeline had shifted. The atmospheric pressure patterns were already showing the same anomalies that had appeared just days before the freeze in her first life. The jet stre

    The restaurant Catherine Hart chose was the kind of place where a salad cost fifty dollars and the waiters looked at you like they were doing you a favor by serving food. Maya sat across from her future mother-in-law, watching the older woman cut her salmon into precise, identical pieces. Everything about Catherine was controlled—her platinum blonde hair pulled back so tight it probably gave her headaches, her designer dress that cost more than most people's monthly rent, her smile that never quite reached her cold blue eyes.In her previous life, Maya had been terrified of this woman. She had spent three years trying desperately to win Catherine's approval, cooking her favorite meals, remembering every preference, enduring criticism with a smile. It had never been enough. Catherine had looked at her like something stuck to the bottom of her shoe.Now, knowing exactly what this woman thought of her, Maya felt nothing but contempt."The wedding is in three weeks," Catherine said, dabbi

  • Frozen Revenge    Chapter 5

    Chapter 5Maya drove through the dark streets like a woman possessed, her knuckles white on the steering wheel, tears streaming down her face. The parking garage where she'd last seen Daniel was fifteen minutes away. Fifteen minutes to find out if he was alive or if she'd gotten him killed.Her phone kept buzzing with messages from the unknown number, each one a countdown, a threat, a reminder that she was running out of time. She ignored them all.The parking garage loomed ahead, concrete and shadows. Maya pulled in and killed her engine, her heart hammering so hard she thought it might burst. She grabbed the flashlight from her glove compartment and got out, scanning the area.Daniel's car was gone.Maya's breath caught. That could mean anything. Maybe he'd driven away. Maybe the killer had moved the body. Maybe the whole video had been staged.But then she saw it—dark stains on the concrete where his car had been parked. She knelt down, her flashlight revealing the unmistakable pat

    Chapter 4Maya's hands were white-knuckled on the steering wheel as she stared at the black sedan. The engine ticked as it cooled, each sound unnaturally loud in the concrete tomb of the parking garage. She had two choices: turn around and run, or walk into Ethan's penthouse and pretend everything was fine.Running would confirm his suspicions. Staying might get her caught.Maya took a shaky breath and got out of the car.The elevator ride to the top floor felt like descending into hell. Her reflection in the mirrored walls showed a composed woman in a designer coat, her hair perfect, her makeup flawless. But inside, Maya was screaming.Someone knows. Someone threatened me. Who?The elevator doors opened with a soft chime.Ethan was waiting in the foyer, still in his work suit, tie loosened. He looked furious. Behind him, Maya could see his mother Catherine sitting in the living room, a glass of wine in her hand, watching like a predator."You're late," Ethan said coldly."Traffic," M

  • Frozen Revenge    Chapter 3

    Chapter 3Daniel Torres called Maya at exactly 7 PM the next evening. She had spent the entire day pacing her apartment, unable to focus on anything except the meeting ahead. Every time her phone buzzed, her heart leaped. But it was always Ethan, and she deleted every message without reading it.When Daniel's name finally appeared on her screen, Maya answered before the first ring finished."The Blue Moon Bar. Ninth and Amsterdam. One hour." His voice was clipped, urgent. "Come alone."The line went dead.Maya's hands trembled as she lowered the phone. The Blue Moon Bar was on the edge of the city, in a neighborhood that became dangerous after dark. Daniel was being careful, she realized. He didn't trust her yet. He was testing whether she would show up, whether she was serious.She grabbed her coat and headed for the door, but froze with her hand on the knob. What if Ethan was having her followed? In her previous life, she would never have believed him capable of such paranoia. But n
