The wall exploded.

Evelyn barely had time to react.

Alexander pulled her backward just as a wave of silver light tore through the underground chamber. Dust and fragments of concrete flew across the room. The lights above them burst one after another, plunging the laboratory into darkness.

Someone screamed.

Adrian.

Afterlight.

Lucian.

Evelyn could not tell.

She hit the floor hard.

Alexander landed beside her.

For several seconds, there was nothing but ringing in her ears.

Then she heard breathin

  • Hate Me Till You Love Me   THE CHILD WHO CHOSE TO STAY

    The baby cried.The sound tore through the world beyond the door.Evelyn couldn’t move.She stared at the woman standing in front of her, the woman who looked exactly like her, holding a newborn with silver eyes.Her own face.Her own eyes.Her own blood.But not her own memory.The system’s words remained suspended above them.SUBJECT E WAS NEVER TAKEN.SUBJECT E CHOSE TO STAY.Evelyn’s lips parted.“No.”The woman holding the baby smiled sadly.“Yes.”“No.”Evelyn shook her head.“That isn’t possible.”Alexander stepped closer.“Evelyn.”She barely heard him.The woman looked at Alexander.For a moment, something almost like recognition passed through her eyes.“You remember.”Alexander’s expression hardened.“Who are you?”The woman looked back at Evelyn.“I told you.”“You said you’re me.”“I am.”“Then why don’t I remember you?”The woman’s smile disappeared.“Because you couldn’t.”“Couldn’t?”“You weren’t supposed to.”Evelyn’s heart pounded.“Who is that baby?”The woman looke

  • Hate Me Till You Love Me   THE WORLD BEYOND THE DOOR

    The scream came again.This time, it was closer.Evelyn stopped breathing.She stood on the other side of the first door with Alexander beside her and Elias a few steps ahead. Behind them, the doorway they had entered through was already disappearing, its edges dissolving into a darkness that looked less like shadow and more like space itself had forgotten how to exist.Afterlight’s voice whispered through Evelyn’s mind.“Evelyn.”She could barely hear her.“What?” Evelyn whispered.“Do not move.”Alexander immediately reached for Evelyn’s hand.She felt his fingers close around hers.Warm.Real.Human.That simple sensation steadied her.Elias turned slowly.His silver eyes reflected the darkness around them.“It’s awake.”Alexander’s expression hardened.“What is?”Elias looked past them.“The thing that screamed.”Another sound rolled through the darkness.Not a scream this time.A laugh.Soft.Almost playful.Evelyn’s stomach tightened.She had heard that laugh before.She knew it

  • Hate Me Till You Love Me   THE SON BEHIND THE DOOR

    The ceiling came down.Evelyn heard Alexander shout her name.Then everything disappeared beneath dust.Concrete crashed around them.Metal screamed.Glass shattered.The floor beneath Evelyn’s feet moved violently.She reached for Alexander.Her fingers found his hand.He pulled her toward him.“Run!”“Where?”“Anywhere!”They ran.Behind them, the first door remained open.Elias stood inside it.He wasn’t moving.He was simply watching.As if the destruction around him meant nothing.As if the collapsing laboratory was nothing more than scenery.“Elias!”Evelyn screamed.The boy looked at her.“Mom.”A massive beam fell between them.Alexander pulled Evelyn backward just before it struck the floor.“Evelyn, move!”“But Elias!”“He’ll come.”“How do you know?”“I don’t.”Alexander looked back.The doorway was still visible through the smoke.Elias was gone.Evelyn’s heart dropped.“He’s gone.”Alexander grabbed her face.“Look at me.”She did.“We’re getting out.”“But he’s my son.”

  • Hate Me Till You Love Me   THE CHILD THEY ERASED

    The crying continued.A small sound.Fragile.Almost impossibly innocent.Evelyn stood in the middle of the ruined laboratory, staring at the screen.THE CHILD WAS EVELYN’S.The words remained there.Unmoving.Unforgiving.Her mind refused to understand them.Her child.No.It couldn’t be.She had never had a child.At least, she didn’t remember having one.Her hand moved instinctively toward her stomach.Nothing.Her body felt exactly as it always had.Alexander was beside her.He hadn’t moved.He was staring at the same message.“Evelyn.”She didn’t answer.“Evelyn, look at me.”She finally turned.“What did you see?”Alexander swallowed.“I don’t know.”“You said you remembered me.”“I do.”“At seventeen.”“Yes.”“With a baby.”“Yes.”Her voice shook.“Did you see me give birth?”“No.”“Did you see me pregnant?”“No.”“Then how do you know the child was mine?”“I don’t.”The answer hit her like a slap.Alexander stepped closer.“I only remember you holding the baby.”“Then it could

  • Hate Me Till You Love Me   THE FIRST THOUGHT

    Something walked out of the door.Evelyn couldn’t move.She couldn’t breathe.She couldn’t even blink.The figure stood in the center of the white room, surrounded by darkness that seemed to bend around its body.At first, Evelyn thought it was a child.Then she realized it wasn’t.It only looked like one.Its body was small, almost delicate, but there was something ancient in the way it stood.Something that did not belong to any human being.Its face was Evelyn’s.Its eyes were Evelyn’s.Even the tiny scar above its eyebrow was there.But the expression was wrong.Too calm.Too knowing.The figure looked at Evelyn as if it had been waiting for her for a lifetime.Or longer.Alexander was still on the floor.Silver light crawled beneath his skin.His hands were pressed against his head as he fought whatever had entered him.“Evelyn…”His voice was weak.She looked at him.“I’m here.”“Don’t…”He struggled to breathe.“Don’t go near it.”The figure smiled.“Alexander.”His body went r

  • Hate Me Till You Love Me    THE ALEXANDER BEFORE ALEXANDER

    Something screamed inside Alexander.Not a human scream.Not entirely.It began deep in his chest, beneath his heartbeat, beneath the bones and muscles that made him Alexander Kane.The sound seemed to come from somewhere older.Somewhere that had been waiting.Evelyn grabbed him.“Alexander!”He collapsed to one knee.His hands pressed against his head.“Get away from me.”“No.”“Evelyn, get away!”“No!”She dropped beside him.His body was shaking violently.Silver veins of light moved beneath his skin, traveling from his neck toward his jaw.His eyes flashed black.Then silver.Then black again.The older man stood across from them.Calm.Almost amused.Evelyn stared at him.He looked like Alexander.Not similar.Not close.Exactly like him.The same face.The same eyes.The same mouth.Only older.More tired.And somehow much more dangerous.Alexander looked up.His breathing was ragged.“Who are you?”The man smiled.“I already told you.”“You said you were me.”“I was.”“That’s

  • Hate Me Till You Love Me    The Ultimatum

    The morning came like a thief quiet, pale, and merciless.The sunlight slipped through the curtains in thin golden blades, cutting across the bedroom floor. It glinted off the glass, the marble, and the edges of the silk sheets that still held the faint imprint of Alexander’s body.Evelyn sat up sl

  • Hate Me Till You Love Me   Afterlight

    The world had gone quiet. Too quiet.Evelyn woke to the sound of waves lapping against the shore, it was gentle, rhythmic, utterly at odds with the chaos she and Alexander had survived. For a long moment, she lay still, staring up at the wooden ceiling of the seaside cottage. The boards creaked wit

  • Hate Me Till You Love Me   THE BREACH

    The darkness didn’t just fall.It collapsed, like a wave of ink pouring over the world.For a full, paralyzing second, Evelyn couldn’t hear anything except her own heartbeat pounding against her ribs. Every breath felt stolen, cut short, swallowed by the void pressing into her lungs. No light, no w

  • Hate Me Till You Love Me   The Alliance with the Devil

    For a long time, Evelyn didn’t move.The rain had stopped, but the world outside still looked bruised and gray. Through the fogged glass, she could see his silhouette, his broad shoulders, hands resting at his sides, face tilted slightly down like a man waiting for judgment. Alexander Kane.The man
