last update 公開日: 2025-11-28 11:21:48

Dominic had spent months trying and failing to unsee the moment he destroyed the woman who once loved him with her entire heart. Every night followed the same routine, one that neither of them spoke about but played their part.

The moment Dominic closed the door behind them, Althea’s shoulders dropped, as though something inside automatically switch off. She would removed her robe without a word, moving with the detached precision of someone following steps memorized long ago.

Then she lays nak

  • His Dead Wife: No Longer the Surrogate Bride   CHAPTER 252

    Sebastian slowly lowered his weapon while the reinforcement collapsed motionless beneath him.Nobody spoke.Nobody even looked at the body long.There was no time anymore as the descent narrowed further.Suddenly, the tunnel opened and all of them froze.The Axis Core chamber stretched impossibly beneath the mountain like an underground cathedral buried beneath centuries.Massive.Ancient.Terrifying.Stone pillars rose upward into darkness beyond visibility while enormous circular pathways spiraled downward toward the center structure below.Old machinery.New technology.Ancient engineering fused with modern systems layered across centuries of occupation.And at the center is The Core.A massive circular mechanism embedded deep into the mountain itself.Metal.Stone.Rotating structures humming softly with impossible age.Enzo stared. “Oh.” He muttered, looking at what his eyes are seeing. “Oh, that’s deeply evil-looking.”The chamber wasn’t empty as dozens of armed figures already

    The Axis Gate descended deeper than any of them imagined.Instead of expecting it to be tunnel or bunker what greeted them were layers being uncovered of the history itself, every step downward felt older and heavier.As though the mountain remembered every death that had occurred beneath it.Now, it will remember them too.Dominic’s group moved through the collapsing bypass corridor with brutal urgency while gunfire echoed endlessly behind and below them.The unknown operators continued pushing from the upper ridges while Luca’s men hunted from the lower descent.The Gate itself kept pressing against their minds with whispers, disorienting them and pressuring them as well as instilling fear.The deeper they descended, the less human the tunnels felt.The walls changed.Stone became smoother in some places, carved deliberately with markings older than modern language. Ancient symbols stretched across the surfaces in faded geometric sequences that seemed almost mathematical beneath the

    “DOMINIC!” Luca’s voice roared through the tunnels. Another explosion shook the corridor violently. “You should’ve stayed at Blackstone!”Dominic advanced instead.“YOU F8CKING SHOULD’VE STAYED AWAY FROM MY FAMILY!” He yelled angrily.More blood and gunfire started to exchange again, the tunnel becoming war itself. The unknown operators attacked from the upper ridges again suddenly.This time, they are hitting Luca’s men directly where three men dropped instantly.Another tumbled screaming into the lower shaft below.“They’re everywhere!” Aurelio cursed sharply as he took a shot.“No, they’re not.” Reyes muttered grimly beside Dominic. He looked towards Luca and his men before staring towards the direction of the gunfire from the unknown operators. “They’re herding us.”Realization hit Dominic immediately on their every movement, every engagement and every tunnel split.The one Althea found. He thought hardly.The Axis Gate kept compressing all three groups toward the same convergence

  • His Dead Wife: No Longer the Surrogate Bride   CHAPTER 249

    The Axis Gate fought back with no mercy and Dominic understood it now.The Gate itself resisted intrusion like a living thing buried beneath centuries of stone and blood.The deeper they descended, the worse it became.Gunfire thundered endlessly through the tunnels.Muzzle flashes erupted violently against ancient walls while three separate forces collided beneath the earth in a storm of violence and confusion.Dominic’s men.The unknown operators.Luca’s network.Somewhere beneath all of it, the Axis Gate is manipulating them all.“LEFT!” Dominic shouted over the chaos while firing toward the advancing corridor ahead.One of Luca’s men dropped instantly, blood spraying against the stone before another rushed into position behind him.Explosions shook the tunnel violently and dust cascaded from above.The walls groaned like the mountain itself resented their presence.Michael moved beside Dominic with brutal precision, eliminating another approaching shooter before dragging one wound

    The descent finally began slowly and the tunnels swallowed the sound almost immediately.Stone walls narrowed around them while overhead lights attached to tactical gear cast shifting shadows across ancient surfaces carved long before any of them were born.Water dripped steadily somewhere deeper below.The air started to smell metallic and old like buried history and rust.And worst of all, the tunnels felt wrong.Althea had warned them repeatedly.“Pressure manipulation.” She enumerated dozens of times. “Behavioral funneling. Instinctive directional control. You have to focus.”Now Dominic understood exactly what she meant.Every few minutes, his body would automatically want to turn right despite logic telling him otherwise.The tunnels subtly curved.Perspective shifted and the space started to compress unevenly.Psychological architecture. Dominic thought darkly.Sebastian muttered quietly behind him, “This place is engineered to make people panic.”“It’s working.” Enzo answered

    Only the faint glow of dashboard instruments illuminated the inside of the armored vehicles as the convoy moved without headlights.Dominic led the descent northward through abandoned mountain roads few people even knew existed anymore.Rain fell intermittently but it was not enough to slow their movement but it did make the darkness heavier as the drive continues.More suffocating.Inside the lead vehicle, nobody spoke for nearly twenty minutes. Their weapons are rested ready while maps remained open across Sebastian’s lap and the men are looking at them from time to time.Vincent continuously monitored the encrypted movement tracker while Michael reviewed the last structural overlays Althea gave them before leaving.Enzo meanwhile stared out the window like a man reconsidering every life decision that brought him here.“I hate tunnels.” He muttered but no one answered. He let out a heavy sigh. “You know what’s beneath tunnels?”Sebastian rubbed tiredly at his forehead.“Please don’t

    Althea felt the shift as she looked up from the medical book she is reading inside the room.The estate, she noted ever since, had a way of breathing. She felt an imperceptible rhythm that those who lived within its walls eventually learned to read.During ordinary days, the corridors hummed softly

  • His Dead Wife: No Longer the Surrogate Bride   CHAPTER 95

    The library was too quiet. The unnatural stillness of the room, the room that had learned to keep secrets.Althea felt it the moment she stepped inside.The heavy doors closed behind her with a soft, final click, as she entered the room, sealing her in among shelves of leather-bound volumes and the

    Dominic woke before the house did.It was a habit carved into bone since the death of his father. Long before he’d learned how to love and long before he’d learned how to lose.The Valtieri estate never truly sleep. It just changed shifts, exchanged eyes, and recalibrated. However, Dominic was able

  • His Dead Wife: No Longer the Surrogate Bride   CHAPTER 93

    Dominic didn’t speak when he entered the room.The door closed behind him with controlled force. It was not slammed but it was not gentle either.Althea, sitting on a chair by the window, looked up and immediately knew something had shifted. She saw the way his shoulders were set and too rigid. He
