Guardian of Ruin SEQUEL CHAPTER
Chapter Twenty Four: EndgameThe dawn was slow to break, the sky a bruised purple over the city. The streets were silent, except for the occasional hum of early traffic and distant sirens — the calm before a storm that none of them could ignore.Eden stood at the edge of the rooftop, wind tugging at her hair, eyes scanning the horizon where the first pale light met steel and concrete. The city felt alive, but tense — like it was holding its breath, waiting for what was coming.Behind her, Roman moved silently, checking the weapons and gear they would need. Her father was already on the comms, coordinating with old contacts and allies who had promised their loyalty once again.“Today, it ends,” Eden said softly, more to herself than to anyone else.Roman glanced at her, eyes sharp but kind. “It will. One way or another.”She turned to face him fully. “We don’t get a second chance. No mistakes.”Roman nodded, understanding the weight of those words. They both did.Her father stepped for

Chapter Twenty: Ashes and Echoes The ground split beneath their feet.Chunks of debris rained from the ceiling as Eden and Roman sprinted through the narrowing corridor. Sparks hissed from severed wires overhead, and smoke curled around them, thickening by the second. Behind them, the collapsing core groaned like a wounded beast, shattering the silence of the deep.“Up the secondary shaft!” Roman shouted, his voice barely audible over the chaos.Eden followed, lungs burning, vision blurred with sweat and smoke. Her mind buzzed with images—Beta’s blank stare, Valeska’s unnerving calm, the glow of the monolith as it surged with volatile energy. The final words echoed louder than the alarms:> “You still can.”As if she had a choice. As if she hadn’t already chosen.Roman hauled open a steel hatch just before it locked, dragging her through. They climbed into a vertical crawlspace that led up—angled, narrow, and built like a maintenance vent. Every surface was hot to the touch. Somewher

Chapter Nineteen: The CoreFor a moment, Eden forgot how to breathe.The boy in the glass chamber didn’t blink. His gaze was sharp, lucid—but there was something wrong beneath it. Like a storm caged in glass. Amber veins pulsed faintly beneath his skin, forming strange patterns that shimmered and faded. Artificial. Controlled. Designed.Roman stepped in front of Eden instinctively, scanning the hallway behind them. The steel doors they entered through were now sealed—hermetically, judging by the sudden hiss of pressure locking them in.Valeska’s voice echoed again, honey-smooth and venom-laced.> “Don’t bother trying the doors. You’re in my house now, Eden. I’ve been waiting a long time for this.”Roman growled, “We need to find the control room. Now.”But Eden didn’t move. Her eyes were still fixed on the boy—no, the weapon. That’s what he was. Another experiment. Another product of Caldera’s twisted vision.“Who are you?” Eden asked, stepping closer to the glass.The boy tilted his

Chapter Eighteen: Smoke Signals The safehouse near Innsbruck was quiet—too quiet.Snow gathered against the windows like reluctant ghosts trying to sneak in. Inside, Eden stared at a massive wall of intelligence reports and satellite images, stringing red yarn between photos like she was building a web that might finally catch Valeska Dormer.But Valeska always slipped through cracks like smoke.Roman leaned against the doorway, arms crossed. “You haven’t slept.”Eden didn’t look up. “Neither have you.”He smirked. “Touché.”Kessler walked in, holding a mug of something vaguely caffeinated and definitely burnt. “I’ve narrowed Caldera’s last supply shipment to three villages—only one matches Sovren’s usual perimeter habits. Heavy drone interference. Weak signals in and out. Rural, isolated, and with three disappearing civilians in the last month. That’s our needle.”He slapped a pin on the board.Eden followed the name: Las Nieblas, a ghost town tucked into the southern spine of Spain

Chapter Seventeen: What Lurks in the SmokeThe night after the mountain burned was too still.Eden sat cross-legged near the wreckage, the faint orange glow of the ruined compound casting eerie shadows against the snow-dusted forest. The survivors they’d pulled from the labs—six in total—lay inside a makeshift shelter, wrapped in thermal blankets, their eyes hollow. Silent. None of them had spoken since the escape.Roman stood a few feet away, rifle slung across his back, watching the treeline like it might lurch forward and devour them all. Kessler was muttering into a secure satphone, coordinating the pick-up that would take them out of the mountains by dawn.But Eden couldn’t rest. Not after what she saw.She kept thinking of the girl with the grey skin and luminous veins—the one who had looked at her and begged for help. That plea had etched itself into Eden’s bones."Help me."How many others hadn’t been saved?“I should’ve gone deeper,” she said quietly. Roman turned his head bu

Chapter Sixteen: Into the BlackThe Carpathians greeted them with a silence so complete it felt unnatural—like the trees themselves were holding their breath.Eden stood at the edge of the cliffside trail, wind biting at her face as the early evening sun dipped below the horizon, staining the sky in blood-orange hues. Below lay a forgotten valley where shadows pooled like oil, cloaking the concrete bones of an old Soviet facility reborn as a fortress. Volkov’s stronghold.It looked dead from above. But Eden knew better.Inside those steel walls, something monstrous was stirring.“We’re on a timer,” Kessler whispered, pulling the infrared tablet from his pack. “Drones sweep every five minutes. Thermal’s hot—lots of bodies, high-output generators, and multiple energy nodes.”Roman was crouched beside her, eyes on the path winding toward the ventilation shafts marked on the Broker’s floor plans. “He’s built a lab inside a mountain. Dense concrete, triple-reinforced gates. No satellite fe
