Novel & Cerita Buried Hearts Ep 1

Looks like there’s another soul who’s caught up in the drama between Kida and Alexander. “Hey, boss, just wanted to let you know that the body’s arrived,” I said, casually closing the lid. I always thought disturbing someone’s final resting place was a bad idea, but in this case, it revealed hidden truths. It was a relief to find the body as we suspected, despite the ominous warnings about its centuries-long burial. Now, our new challenge was figuring out who was messing with us and why. ... Seraphina

"I know she's endured enough without you dragging her into this." "Stop!" My ember throbbed under my ribs, searing me alive. "Please, stop fighting." My father crouched, movements jagged, like his body was relearning itself. He stretched out a smoking hand. "Beneath the roots. They buried her flame deep, hoping it would die. But it hasn't. I can feel it. You can too." And I did. Something stirred under my ribs, flaring like a second heartbeat. "I feel...something."

But I need to do it. If you do, they wanted me to call me crazy because of this mindset? Well, you're free to call me that. You can even slap me because I deserve that. I don't want to see him broken but I still want to continue my plan. MISSION: BREAK MY BOYFRIEND'S HEART. But... But how to break a heart? How to break his heart, I can't break his heart just like that, I love him so damn much… Suddenly, I saw Charles' face flashing in my mind…

I pulled out my SIM card, snapped it cleanly in two, and let it fall into the trash, severing the last thread. I boarded the plane and turned off my phone. As the plane rose into the sky, I looked down at the city beneath the clouds, watching the place that held all my pain slowly fade from view. Silently, I whispered farewell to the life I once knew. … Ryan held his phone, waiting for a reply that never came. The screen went dark, and he pressed it to wake it again. A restless irritation twisted inside him, sharper and more relentless than ever. He loosened his tie, trying to shake off the strange discomfort.

Hours later, I had no idea that I would be clawing my way out of a shallow grave, buried alive by the same man I'd sworn to love and the women I trusted the most. I don’t remember the exact moment I died, only the parts that mattered. Jade’s laugh, Mara’s smirk. Ethan’s hands on my throat. They didn’t bury me deep, just enough to forget me, but the earth isn’t quiet when you’re still breathing it presses on your ribs, fills your mouth, and steals your scream. I woke up choking on dirt. At first, I thought it was a nightmare, then the taste of soil and blood, the pain throbbing in my skull, crushed ribs, and lungs gasping. I screamed, but only the earth heard me.

******************************************** FROM PENCILS TO YOU Lila has gotten much more powerful than she was, do you agree? I didn't say this before but CURSED HEART would be coming to an end soon. We're still a few chapters away from that and I already miss Lila and Miguel, ship Liguel. Let me know what you think about the story so far.

Eric said with biting sarcasm. James replied, "Pleasure doing business with you. I look forward to working with you." After hanging up, James' expression turned grim. Celeste's face appeared in his mind again, and his heart skipped a beat. He realized then how he had never truly loved her. But all of a sudden, he yearned to see her. He wanted to go home.

“Stay here.” His eyes lifted to hers. And then, for one heartbeat, she saw him. The real him. Fierce. Broken. Furious. Loving her so much it almost hurt. The thing in his palm shrieked and suddenly burst apart in a spray of black light, but before it vanished completely, it spat out one final truth in a voice that was no longer its own. “The first body was never buried in Kael,” it whispered. “It was buried in the child.” Aira froze.

Elias muttered: “So we’re walking straight into ground zero.” Lena nodded. “We either face what made her… or wait for her to hunt us down one fragment at a time.” Alexander tightened his hold. “Then we face it.” And as they disappeared beneath the trees, the drone circled above the buried lab — transmitting the last known coordinates of the awakened heart… straight back to Kass.

Ethan snapped, "What for? So you can make him kneel and beg you?" She broke down and desperately pleaded. "I'm begging you, Ethan. I know everything now, so please just tell me." Her every sob felt like a knife was twisting in my chest. Finally, with a bitter sneer, Ethan gave her my address. "He's at the suburban cemetery." The moment she heard it, she scrambled to her feet, only to collapse onto the pavement. Her legs had gone numb from sitting too long. She dragged herself up, flagged down a cab, and headed straight over.
