Love In A Deadly Game のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

Something was wrong. Lena couldn’t feel her body. Not pain. Not cold. Not even the ground. Just… nothing. A heavy darkness pressed around her, thick like smoke but colder. It didn’t move. It didn’t breathe. It just… existed. She tried to inhale. Her chest didn’t rise. “I…” her voice came out weak, barely there. “Hello…?” The sound didn’t travel. It just… died. Her heart—or whatever was left of it—started racing. “Okay… okay, think…” she whispered, her words uneven. “I got hit… I remember that… the car…” Her mind dragged slowly through the memory. Headlights. A scream. Impact. Her body jerked. Her hands moved instantly, touching her face, her arms, her chest. No blood. No pain. No injuries. She froze. “That’s not… right…” she whispered. Her fingers pressed harder against her skin like she was trying to prove something. “I should be… hurt… I should—” Her voice broke. Silence swallowed the rest. Then— “…hurt… hurt…” Lena’s breath caught. The sound didn’t c

The thing lunged. Too fast. Too close. Lena didn’t move. Her body locked. Her mind went blank. “I can’t—” A hand yanked her hard. “MOVE!” Noah’s voice cracked right beside her ear. Her body jerked sideways. The creature slammed into the ground where she had been standing a second ago. The impact shook the cracked surface violently. Dust rose. The ground trembled. Lena stumbled, falling hard to her knees. Her palms scraped against the rough surface. Sharp. Cold. Real. “Get up!” Noah grabbed her arm again, pulling her roughly. “Get up, Lena!” “I… I can’t breathe…” she choked, her chest tight, her lungs refusing to cooperate. “You don’t have time to breathe!” Another scream tore through the air behind them. Raw. Painful. Cut short too quickly. Not far. Too close. Lena flinched hard. Her heart slammed violently against her ribs. “I’m going to die…” she whispered, her voice barely holding together. Noah shook her. Hard. “The

The group moved slowly through the dim twisting passage, fear thick in the air. Lena stayed near the middle, her long dark hair sticking to her pale neck from sweat. Her expressive eyes kept darting around, taking everything in. Noah Reed walked close beside her, lean and quick, his nervous energy making him glance back every few seconds. Tess Lorne clung to Lena’s arm, her innocent face looking even younger in the low light, eyes wide and watery.Then Jax Hollow stepped forward.He was rugged and intimidating, broad shoulders filling the narrow space as he cornered the weaker players against the wall. His presence felt heavy, like a storm about to break.“Stick close,” Jax said, his voice low and rough. “Or you won’t last long.”It sounded like he was offering help. But to Lena it felt like something else entirely — control.A thin man with shaking hands looked up at him. “What do you mean by that? We’re all in this together, right?”Jax leaned in closer, his rugged face hard. “Toget

Chapter 8 “Run.” The word hit Lena like a slap. Cold. Sharp. Commanding. For half a second, she just stared at Riven Cross. At his unreadable face. At those dark eyes that looked completely calm while something behind her growled like it was starving. Then the sound came again. Closer. Wet. Violent. Lena’s entire body locked. “I—I can’t move…” The growl exploded into a scream. Not human. Something slammed into the wall behind her. The black stone shattered. Lena turned— and her breath died in her throat. The creature crawling out of the darkness looked wrong. Its limbs bent in impossible directions. Its jaw hung too wide. Its skin looked torn open, exposing black veins that moved beneath it like worms. Its eyes— completely white. It smiled. Lena screamed. And ran. Her legs nearly collapsed beneath her. She heard the creature slam into the ground behind her. Fast. Too fast. Its claws scraped the floor. Sharp. Metallic. Hunting. “Oh God—!” “Keep mov

And Riven slowly turned to look at her.Lena stopped breathing.“No…”The word barely came out.The glowing words stayed on the metal wall like they were enjoying her panic.ONLY ONE PLAYER MAY EXIT EACH CHAMBERELIMINATE YOUR OPPONENT TO PROCEEDLena shook her head so hard her hair stuck to her tear-stained face.“No. No, no—this is sick.”Her voice cracked.“This isn’t happening.”The metal room felt smaller.Hotter.Like the walls were closing in.Riven said nothing.That silence made everything worse.Lena stared at him.“You’re not seriously considering this.”Still nothing.Her chest tightened.“Say something!”Riven’s jaw moved slightly.“I’m thinking.”She laughed in disbelief.“That’s somehow worse.”The floor trembled beneath them.A distant scream echoed through the walls.Then another.Then several people.Begging.Crying.Dying.Lena covered her ears.“No…”A male voice screamed somewhere nearby.“PLEASE DON’T DO THIS!”A woman sobbed violently.“I DON’T WANT TO DIE!”The
