Monster Can Love Too CHAPTER EIGHTY — THE DOCKS BLEED RED
The rain didn’t stop. It thickened. What had started as a steady curtain of water was now a pounding wall, each drop cold enough to sting when it hit skin. By the time the SUVs rolled past the rusted gates of the port, every surface seemed slick and alive, reflecting the harsh glare of distant floodlights in fractured shards. The air smelled heavy salt from the sea, oil from the engines, and something faintly metallic that lingered in the back of the throat, like old blood that had been left too long to rot.Steel containers rose on either side of the narrow lanes like silent giants, stacked high and tight, turning the docks into a maze of metal corridors. Each one cast deep shadows, the kind that could hide a man… or a dozen. Somewhere, the wind groaned through gaps in the stacks, low and hollow, like the place itself was breathing.The dock workers had cleared out hours ago, probably told to, or paid to look the other way. The emptiness made it worse. No distant laughter from a nigh
Monster Can Love Too CHAPTER SEVENTY-NINE — BACK TO BUSINESS
The rain was coming down in thin, icy needles, slicing through the air like the city itself wanted them gone. It wasn’t the soft kind of rain that washed things away gently, this was sharp, stinging, and relentless, soaking through clothes in seconds and turning every step into a cold reminder they were still alive. The streets around them shone like slick black glass, reflecting streaks of red and blue from distant neon signs that flickered in the storm.Alessio didn’t even bother pulling up his hood. The water rolled down his face, soaking his hair until it clung to his skin. He welcomed it. The cold was like a punishment and a cleansing all at once, each drop burning the last of ERA’s stench off his body. He wanted it gone every trace, every echo, every memory of what they’d just walked out of.Beside him, Noa kept pace, though he moved like a man who had been stitched together with nothing but stubbornness and a refusal to fall. His shoulders were locked tight, his jaw clenched so
Monster Can Love Too CHAPTER SEVENTY-EIGHT — THE LAST ERA
The light ripped through the room like it wasn’t just trying to brighten it, but tear it apart from the inside. The walls looked like they were warping under it, bending in strange ways, as if reality itself didn’t know how to hold together anymore. It was so blinding Alessio almost thought he’d gone deaf too, because for a moment, all the sound around him was swallowed by the roar in his own skull, a deep, pounding, vibrating noise that made his teeth ache and his stomach twist.He braced one arm against the wall just to keep himself upright. The other hand was still locked around the clone’s wrist with that cold, too-smooth skin that wasn’t quite human. Every muscle in his body was screaming at him to move, to fight, to do something, but the heat in the air was suffocating. It wasn’t the warmth of life, not the heat of skin pressed against skin. It was the white-hot burn of something unnatural, something that didn’t belong in this world at all.And Alessio was done with it.His jaw
Monster Can Love Too CHAPTER SEVENTY-SEVEN: THE MIRROR
For a second, Alessio didn’t breathe.Couldn’t.Two Noas.Same face. Same scars. Same lazy tilt of the mouth like they were seconds away from saying something he’d regret hearing.The one in his arms was still and faintly glowing. The one in the doorway was standing, eyes open, shoulders squared, gaze locked right on him.“What” The word came out raw. Alessio stopped himself before finishing it. He wasn’t about to give either of them the satisfaction of hearing the question.The standing Noa smiled. A real one, not the twisted metallic imitation the drones had worn. The curve was soft. Almost sweet.“Hello, Alessio.”Every nerve in his body went on alert. “You’re not him.”The smile didn’t fade.“Aren’t I?”Ivy’s voice crackled faint in his ear. “Alessio, I’m picking up what the hell? I’ve got two identical biometrics in your location. This isn’t possible unless”“It’s possible,” the standing Noa cut in smoothly, eyes flicking toward Alessio’s comm like he could hear Ivy too. “ERA mak
Monster Can Love Too CHAPTER SEVENTY-SIX: PHASE TEN TERMINATED
The smell of burning circuitry hit before Alessio’s vision even fully adjusted. It wasn’t just a scent, it was thick in the back of his throat, acrid and metallic, the kind of smell that stuck to your clothes and made your eyes water. He blinked hard, once, twice, trying to force his vision to settle, but the darkness was still oppressive, swallowing the room whole.Tiny motes of light drifted through the black. For a second, his brain wanted to think they were absurd fireflies, wrong before he realized they were tiny shards of glass and scorched insulation hanging in the air. They caught what little illumination there was, winking like dying stars before spiraling to the floor. Somewhere to his right, a blown-out control panel sparked, a blue-white flare so bright it left a ghost-image burned in his vision. Then darkness again.Noa’s body was still in his arms. Still glowing faintly, the same slow, steady pulse, like light was being breathed out from under his skin. It wasn’t natural
Monster Can Love Too CHAPTER SEVENTY-FIVE: ERA UNIT 01
The alarms didn’t just scream.They breathed.Each pulse didn’t feel like sound; it felt like a heartbeat too big for the room, a living, angry pulse vibrating through the reinforced walls, through the seams of Alessio’s armor, all the way into his bones. Red light strobed across the containment cell in harsh, jagged flashes, carving shadows into every surface. For one fraction of a second, every flash painted Noa’s face no, ERA’s face in strips of crimson.His eyes were black. Not dark brown. Not dilated. Black. Ink-black. The kind of black that wasn’t just color was absent.Over comms, Ivy’s voice snapped through, sharp, urgent, cutting like glass against the roar of the alarms.“Alessio, we have thirty seconds before full system breach.”He didn’t hesitate. “Pull the plug!”Her reply came back as a wash of static, a hiss that crawled over his earpiece and down his spine.Inside the cell, Noa or the thing wearing him tilted his head. Slow. Deliberate. Like a predator catching a scen
