Breaking The Dark: A Jessica Jones Marvel Crime Novel 소설 & 이야기

“We will not give in to the darkness!” The light pulsed around them, pushing back against the shadows. But just as they felt the warmth of victory, a final surge of darkness threatened to overwhelm them. “Embrace the truth!” Jessica screamed, her voice echoing with despair. “You will never escape me!”

POV: Mia (Zero) I didn’t ease back into myself. I snapped. One second, I was lost in the cold weight of silence—no breath, no wolf, no pulse in my limbs—and the next, I was choking on firelight and blood and the unmistakable scent of home. Darkhaven. Not burned. Not overrun. Still standing. But barely.

The world didn’t break all at once. It cracked in thin white lines, like stress fractures in glass, quiet and calm at first, then louder, then unstoppable. Olivia felt the shift before she saw it. The air in the ruined temple grew heavy, dense, almost liquid. Every breath tasted like smoke and metal. Jessica’s copies stood in a half circle around her, faces identical, eyes glowing red like embers pulled straight from the underworld. Their smiles didn’t move. Their bodies didn’t sway. They didn’t even breathe.

"Jessica arranged the escape. She bribed the prison officials. She set up the transport ambush. She's been funding everything since Brock got out. Providing intelligence. Resources. Strategy." "Why? Why help Brock? He failed her before. He's sloppy. Emotional. Everything Jessica isn't." "Because he knows you." Agent Park zoomed in on specific intercepted messages. "Look at these texts. Jessica asking Brock about your patterns. Your habits. Your vulnerabilities. Where would Bethany hide? What would Bethany do under pressure? How would Bethany react to threats against Emma?" I read the messages. My stomach turned. Brock was describing me in intimate detail. My psychology. My fears. My triggers

The irony isn't lost on me. "Oh?" Professor Martinez looks surprised. "Is there a scheduling conflict?" Jessica doesn't look at me when she answers. "I just think it would be better if I worked with someone else." The professor's eyes flick to me, then back to Jessica. I can see the moment recognition dawns on his face that she has clearly seen the photos or heard the gossip. "I see," she says quietly. "Jules, are you comfortable presenting alone, or would you prefer to join another group?"

"May, I've put up with you for far too long. Flaunting your fancy job, dictating 'you're in charge of the world outside, I handle home affairs.' I'm the man! I'm no slave of yours! "Rowena is different. She loves me, treats me like I'm her world, and gives me the dignity of a man." Rowena, the neighbor I had always looked out for, stood smirking behind him. "Thanks a million for handing over such a catch, May. Oh, and those healthy kids, too. Without you, I'd be at a loss with my own dead baby." I tried to fight back but was mercilessly pushed under the water. In my final moments, I saw my real daughter, the one they had switched, screaming to stop those monsters, only to be struck until she

“Not a line anymore. A path. And I’m walking it on my own terms.” --- The New Power Dynamic Cassian’s expression darkened slightly. “This is far from over,” he said. She nodded. “I know.” But now… She wasn’t just surviving. She was controlling. She was striking. She was ready. --- The Cliffhanger As the night deepened, alarms went off across the building. Someone triggered an external breach. Something massive. And Aria knew instantly— The next move wouldn’t just test her skills. It would test her limits. And push her and Cassian to the edge.

Elise broke her train of thought for a second before continuing, “Good luck to us all, and may the Goddess be on our side.” “She is,” Jake said definitively. She is, Xavier echoed in my mind. I hope they are both right. Rachel~ He couldn’t be here. He couldn’t. A moment of shock hit me and he smiled, hand still clutching my wrist. Suddenly it felt like time unfroze and I was faced with the reality of this absolute evil creep here, at my home, touching me, in the dark. I ripped my hand away and was a little surprised with how I was able to do so so fast. We were far into the garage, I needed to get out on the shared driveway, get some help.

She stared up at the black sky, not sure if she was dying. "You do realise what happens to those who dare defy the mafia lords, don't you?" he increased the pressure, just enough to induce fear inside her. The dread had addled her brain. Nikaulas' demons were feeding on her fear. The nervous trembling of her lips, slight quivering of her eyeballs, her irregular breathing while she tried to act brave.....fuck him, he was getting a sadistic pleasure from her vulnerability. How intoxicating it was to have her at his mercy. He could kill her right now if he wanted. Be done with her for once and all.

Jasper offered me a curt nod and the three of us took off in the direction of the battlefield, the effects of Dark’s blood attack were still squeezing at my insides, but the pain was easy to ignore when I knocked the first rogue I saw off its feet. Jasper, Susie and I teamed up instinctively, making our way through the crowd, and taking out as many rogues as we could. “NO! STOP!” Dark’s voice roared suddenly, garnering the attention of everyone in the vicinity. Pack wolves and rogues alike watched the psychotic man in a trance-like state as he curled his fingers at his side. I knew what was coming, but as his eyes blackened, I knew the little control the man held onto had finally snapped.
