His First Kill, My Second Life
“Aiden, you think this is about this life? You think I rejected you because of what you did this time?”
Aiden's golden eyes widened in horror. He froze, as if struck by lightning.
"You're... you're reborn, too?" he stammered.
I looked at him, the man who was once my entire world.
Now he was a pathetic wreck on a street corner.
And I suddenly felt nothing.
"Aiden," I said his name one last time.
My voice held no hatred, only a dead, hollow calm.
“In our last life, your son with Cora murdered me. In this one, you destroyed yourself. Don't you see, Aiden? With or without me, you are the architect of your own ruin. That was always your fate.”
