Chapter 1

"This is our last chance to evacuate! If we don't leave now, we'll all die here!" Several team members yelled themselves hoarse, attempting to pull Noah Black away from the exit he was blocking with his body."Esmeralda isn't here yet! Five more minutes won't kill us," Noah said coldly, refusing to budge."You'd risk every one of our lives just to wait for her? Don't be so selfish, Noah!" The team was frantic.Right then, someone snapped and lunged forward to drag him aside. However, the very next second, Noah raised his gun and fired. The bullet zipped right over everyone's heads, drawing a collective gasp. "Have you lost your bloody mind?"Instead of backing down, Noah seethed, "You're the ones who are despicable, shameless, and selfish! Esmeralda isn't here yet, so no one is getting on that plane! "You selfish cowards, you'd abandon a teammate to save your own skins! Do you think you deserve to live?"After hearing that, the deputy leader shot me a troubled look. "Skyla, th

The rescue helicopter closed its hatch at that moment and lifted off with some of the evacuees.Those left behind erupted in rage. "Noah Black, you're out of your fucking mind! You just cut off our only way out! "And that jinx over there! Who the hell runs home the night before the evacuation just to get a guitar? Who are you planning to play it for, the Grim Reaper?"Shouts and curses filled the helipad. The blood drained from Esmeralda's face. "I-I'm sorry. This guitar is my most treasured possession. I had no idea I would delay everyone's evacuation…"Feeling everyone's hostile stares, she hastily hugged the instrument to her chest and ducked behind Noah.Even my teammates looked at me with resentment. "You're the one who kept dragging us out of near death, Skyla. We chose you as our captain because we believed in you. How could you… lose your head this time?"I gave them an apologetic look and patted their shoulders. "It's my fault. I shouldn't have let my feelings cloud my

The promise of rescue and the stockpile of supplies quickly dulled everyone's fear.In the days that followed, Noah completely relaxed and indulged himself with Esmeralda—washing clothes with purified water, popping the emergency antibiotics like daily vitamins, and even stripping batteries from devices to power their music player.On the third evening, barely half an hour before the rescue team arrived, Noah burst through the door, interrupting my meeting with the others. "Skyla, quick, give me the serum!" he demanded.I frowned and looked up. "What do you need the serum for? Did someone get infected?"Yet, Noah's response made everyone's jaw drop. "No, but Esme's running a high fever! I've given her fever medication, but it isn't doing a thing. Enough chatter—give me the serum so I can give her the injection right now!"I slowly rose from my feet and inquired coldly, "Do you understand what you're asking for? This serum is the result of three years of research! It can halt the z

Noah's face became ghastly pale when he heard that. He whipped his head around to look at me, his eyes wide with disbelief. "W-What's going on, Skyla?"I stood at the helicopter door, meeting his gaze calmly. "This rescue was approved for only six people. The military is only taking highly skilled personnel, like me and my five teammates." I paused before adding, "I only managed to get that extra seat after pleading with the higher-ups. It looks like… One of you will have to stay behind tonight."My team members struggled to keep a straight face inside the cabin. Surrounded by heavily armed soldiers, Noah didn't dare make a scene. He turned to the side, his voice trembling. "Esme, I…"However, before he could finish, Esmeralda brazenly hurried up to the soldiers. "Let me on! I-I used to be a famous musician. I'm much more useful than that man!"As soon as her words fell, Noah's breath caught. He couldn't believe that the woman, who had just sworn to protect him with her life, w

As the helicopter slowly lifted off, Noah huddled in a corner of the cabin, like he'd lost his soul, his eyes puffy from crying. To my surprise, Esmeralda still had the gall to inch closer to him. Lowering her voice to barely a whisper, she cautiously said, "Noah… I can explain. Earlier, I—"Before she could finish, he raised his hand and slapped her. "What's there to explain? You were the one who said all that. Now you want to act like it never happened? Esmeralda, y-you heartless bitch!""I-It's not what you think!" Esmeralda deliberately glanced in my direction. "I did it to expose Skyla!"After hearing that, he froze with his arm still in the air. "W-What do you mean?""Noah! Isn't it obvious? I was acting the whole time! Skyla was trying to drive a wedge between us with such a nasty trick… I-I had no choice but to play along." Everyone cracked up at her outrageous excuse. At this point, she still had the nerve to dress up her selfishness. To my disbelief, Noah actually wav

After traveling for two long days and a night, we finally made it to the safe zone. Everyone barely had a wink of sleep throughout the journey.Right after getting off the helicopter, I requested the best accommodations for my teammates. When it came to Noah and Esmeralda, I casually told the soldier, "They're not important. Just give them a place to sleep. There's no need to give them special treatment."As soon as her words fell, Noah snapped, "Skyla! Are you even listening to yourself? I'm your boyfriend, and you're fine with dumping me in the cheapest mixed dorm?"I snorted and questioned him, "Didn't you say you'd never leave Esmeralda? Now, you two can sleep together in the mixed dorms. How convenient."His cheeks flushed crimson when he heard that. He glanced at the tents a short distance away, where people in grimy, foul-smelling clothes milled about and showers were out in the open."Don't do this to me, Sky…" His tone softened right away. "I-I just want to look out for E

"You? Seriously?" The deputy scoffed, pointing at the dark circles under Esmeralda's eyes. "Don't make me laugh. You're nothing but dead weight; you only know how to scream for help when trouble shows up."The rest of the team burst out laughing.Noah's face turned chalk-white, yet he stubbornly stood his ground. "I know we've messed up… But please give us a chance to make it up to you. I promise we'll follow your every order this time!"However, everyone was well aware that they were only after the mission's lucrative rewards and wanted a share of the spoils. I lifted my hand to quiet the room. Then, I lowered my voice and said, "Let's bring them along. If we run into danger, we can leave them behind to buy us some time."After hearing that, the others stopped grumbling and reluctantly agreed to Noah's request. On the way there, Noah insisted on riding in the lead vehicle I was driving. He mostly kept to himself, but I could feel his eyes on me through the rearview mirror ever

"Wait for me, Esme!" Noah called out as he charged forward, but all he could do was watch Esmeralda climb the emergency ladder. He tried his best to reach for the ladder, but his hand caught nothing but air.Esmeralda looked down at us with a triumphant smile, clutching the precious sample tight against her chest. "Esme… Lower the ladder. I haven't climbed up yet!" Noah's voice trembled uncontrollably.Esmeralda chuckled derisively. "And why should I save you?"Patting the sealed container in her arms, she continued, "With this, all the credit for the mission will be mine!"The blood drained from his face in an instant. "That's not what we agreed on! You… You said once we found the sample, we'd both—""You fool!" Esmeralda cackled. "You actually believed that? I only stuck with you to get into Skyla's team to stay alive! Do you know how funny it was to watch you argue with Skyla over me every time? "Did you genuinely think I liked you? You're nothing but a pathetic loser…" With

Chapter 9

On our way back, Noah kept chasing after us, pleading, "Sky, after everything we've been through, give me one more chance to make things right. I swear I won't screw up again!""Shut up!" the deputy team leader cut him off sharply. "I can't believe you still have the nerve to bring that up! Because of that bitch, you made us miss the evacuation, wasted the precious serum, and almost got us all killed! Get the hell out of here before I put a bullet in you, you fucking idiot!"I yanked a dagger from my belt and tossed it at his feet. "You're on your own now. From this moment on, you've been removed from the team. "Also, in case it hasn't sunk in, we broke up a long time ago. Don't you dare come after me again!"After hearing that, Noah crawled forward on his knees and held onto my leg, refusing to let go. "Sky, I know I was foolish. I made a mistake…" His tears soaked my pants. "I swear I'll only listen to you from now on. Whatever you tell me to do, I'll do it!"I pried his fing

Chapter 10

I chuckled and waved my hand. "If you shoot her, you're only going to give her an easy way out. I say we let her feel what it's like to be torn apart alive. That's the kind of ending a traitor deserves!"The team roared their approval. However, Esmeralda, who was barely breathing, suddenly cackled. "If you don't save me, I'll destroy this sample! Then, you can kiss your new anti-virus serum goodbye!"Hugging the sample to her chest, her eyes were filled with malice. I let out a low chuckle before pulling an identical sample tube out from my pocket. "You mean this one?""T-That's impossible!" Esmeralda's eyes went wide, her face twitching uncontrollably. "Then… What you gave me was…""Fake." I shook the tube in my hand. "Why would I hand over something so important to someone as unreliable as you? I never trusted you, not for a second!"I paused before looking down at her terrified expression. "Esmeralda… The one you're holding is a decoy I developed. Hence, even though you ran
