Kayla’s POV

Silence.

That was all there was at first—an endless, weightless quiet. No pain, no sound, no heartbeat. Just the strange, floating stillness of a world between life and death.

Then, slowly, the silence cracked. A soft hum filled the air, deep and steady, like the sound of the ocean beneath my skin. I opened my eyes.

Light. Too bright. Too pure.

The air smelled of ash and rain. I lay on a bed of soft grass, the sky above me an endless gray canvas. For a moment, I couldn’t remember where I was—or who I was. Then it hit me all at once. Ethan. The explosion. The core.

I sat up sharply, gasping. The world spun, but it was real. I was alive. Somehow.

“Kayla?”

The sound of my name was like a thread pulling me back to reality. I turned, and my breath caught in my throat.

Damien knelt a few feet away, his face streaked with dirt and blood, his eyes wide with relief. He was alive. When he saw me move, something in him broke; he exhaled a shaky laugh and closed the distance between u

  • Love me again, Dear Ex wife!   Chapter 119

    Kayla’s POVThe night was unnaturally still. Even the fire that had consumed the facility burned quieter now, its glow painting the sky in shades of crimson and ash. Every step we took toward the blue light in the distance felt heavier, as if the ground itself was pulling against us.Damien walked ahead, flashlight cutting a narrow path through the smoke. Liam followed close behind me, his limp worse now, but he didn’t complain. None of us spoke. The silence between us wasn’t peace—it was the fragile kind of quiet that comes before something breaks.The pulse of the blue light grew stronger the closer we got. It wasn’t just a visual glow; it had rhythm—steady, hypnotic—like a heartbeat. But it wasn’t mine, or Damien’s, or even the earth’s. It was Ethan’s.Each pulse sent a faint vibration through my chest, syncing with the warmth that still burned beneath my skin. I could feel him—inside me—alive in the places where fear and power met.You don’t have to fight me, his voice whispered,

    Kayla’s POVThe tunnel was endless, opening up before us like the throat of a wounded beast. The smoke and dust-filled air was tearing at my lungs with each breath. Damien had his arm around my shoulders, half-leading, half-carrying me down toward the dim light ahead. Liam followed close behind, his face pale, his movements unsteady.The sound of collapsing steel roared behind us, drowning out everything except the thunder of our footsteps. Every vibration felt like a heartbeat—Ethan’s heartbeat—echoing through the bones of the building he’d built to trap us.The tunnel was endless, opening up before us like the throat of a wounded beast. The smoke and dust-filled air was tearing at my lungs with each breath. Damien had his arm around my shoulders, half-leading, half-carrying me down toward the dim light aheadDamien knelt beside me, brushing my hair back, his voice hoarse. “It’s over, Kayla. It’s really over.”I wanted to believe him. I wanted to let the words sink in and become real

  • Love me again, Dear Ex wife!   Chapter 117

    Kayla’s POVThe sound of glass breaking echoed like thunder. My mother’s warning still hung in the air, sharp and desperate, as smoke and light flooded the chamber.Damien pulled me back, his grip firm, but my eyes wouldn’t leave her. My mother. Alive. Her eyes—my eyes—glowed gold, and for a fleeting second I saw the same power that burned inside me flickering beneath her skin.She looked at me with so much sorrow it made my chest ache. “Kayla, listen to me,” she pleaded. “You don’t understand what he’s done—what he’s made you.”Before I could respond, the air split open. Ethan stepped out of the smoke like a shadow come to life. His white coat was torn, his skin streaked with blood, but his expression was calm—too calm.“Did you really think I’d die that easily?” he said softly. His voice was smooth, eerily gentle, like a lover whispering in the dark.Liam moved instantly, stepping in front of me, gun raised. “Stay away from her.”Ethan’s eyes flicked toward him, and with one small m

  • Love me again, Dear Ex wife!   Chapter 116

    Kayla’s POVThe silence that followed was unbearable. It was the kind that pressed against your ears and made your heart beat too loudly, the kind that told you the danger wasn’t gone—it was just hiding.Damien’s arm was still around me, steadying me as I tried to catch my breath. The air was thick with smoke and the chemical stench of whatever had leaked from the shattered tubes. Liam sat slumped against the far wall, his breathing shallow but determined.I could feel Ethan’s absence like a hollow echo, but even that was too quiet to trust. He wasn’t gone. He had just slipped somewhere deeper, waiting. Watching.Damien turned to me, brushing his thumb lightly over the cut on my cheek. “We have to move before this whole place collapses.”His voice grounded me. I nodded, though my legs trembled beneath me. He guided me toward the door, but when my hand brushed the wall, a surge of energy pulsed through my fingertips. The lights flickered once, then died completely.I froze.Damien look

  • Love me again, Dear Ex wife!   Chapter 115

    Kayla’s POVThe atmosphere was electric. Each hair on my frame stood on end as the whirring of the machinery increased in pitch, vibrating the walls. Lights flashed furiously, bursts of blue and white coloring the icy corridor in wild designs.Run!" cried Damien, yanking me toward the only door still ajar. Liam was behind me, limping badly, but dead set on it. Metal screeched against metal all around us as walls started to converge on us like the jaws of a trap.We had hardly stepped through the door before it thudded shut behind us with a deafening bang. I stumbled forward, gasping, my heart thumping so hard it hurt. The room that we stepped into was unlike any other—round, metal, spotlessly sterile. Walls were lined with tubes containing silently pulsing blue fluid.The air was charged. Every hair on my frame stood on end with the added thrum of machinery that made the walls shudder. Lights blazed frantically, streaks of blue and white lighting up the small passageway in wild patter
