Her heart pounded rapidly, but she kept her movements calm so as not to panic or lose track of her plan.

Chapter 4: A Night of Despair Elena couldn’t sleep. She lay on the massive bed in the dark room, staring at the ceiling, her heart pounding against her ribs. The walls felt like they were closing in, trapping her inside this nightmare. She could still feel their touch—Alessio’s firm grip on her chin, Gabriel’s teasing fingers brushing against her skin. She hated them. Her body was exhausted, but her mind wouldn’t rest. The events of the night replayed over and over—her failed escape, the way they humiliated her, the way they looked at her like she was already theirs.

I couldn’t sleep, and I wasn’t sure I even wanted to. My skin felt too tight. My blood too loud. I stood alone in the candlelit corridor outside the chamber we’d been given. The flames danced strangely tonight, longer, flickering in odd directions, almost whispering to me.

My demonic phone must think it’s at an audition with this enthusiastic performance it’s giving…Oh God, why won’t it shut up! If I can get my sadistic phone and put it on silent, maybe I can get in another thirty minutes of sleep, I contemplated. Deciding to do just that I began to feel around for it…space, space, space, silky sheet, is that a feet?!! My eyes snap shot open, and immediately closed back;uhh, my head hurts… wait, did I just see a feet, curious I slowly peeped through an eye. Why am I staring at a feet?, those can’t be mine right?, I was never good at gymnastics and there’s no way my feet could be that close to my face, not to talk of how big they look right now.

They began to walk toward the smoke, leaving the darkness of the earth behind them, and stepping into the blinding, dangerous light of the unknown. End of Chapter 14

Chapter 41: The First Night The fire in the stone hearth crackled with a mocking warmth. It cast long and dancing shadows against the walls where the severed heads of beasts stared down at me with glass eyes. I sat in the heavy velvet armchair facing the door. My knuckles were white where I gripped the iron fire poker.

"I am the first successful Phase 4 subject. And I am here to retrieve my original code." Marcus dragged Liora away forcefully, while in the distance, a massive explosion echoed from the direction of London Mavric had begun his assault. END OF CHAPTER 100..

I slipped back into my shirt since there was nothing to change into. Our luggage is still missing. I quietly got into bed on the other side but it wasn’t up to ten minutes when the storm started. Heavy rain slammed against the windows while thunder shook the building. The lights flickered twice and then everything went dark. “I can’t believe this!” Lyra groaned from the other side of the bed while I rubbed my forehead.

Chapter 40: A New Dawn The first thing Caden noticed when he woke was the warmth of the sunlight spilling through the thick curtains, casting soft golden rays across the room. It felt like a strange comfort after the cold darkness that had gripped him for so long. His body was still heavy with fatigue, his muscles aching, but there was a new kind of peace surrounding him. The panic, the fear, the doubt that had plagued him in his final moments—before everything had gone black—were gone.

Shadows moved around him, shadows of men, I couldn’t see their faces but their figures screamed of brutality. They kicked him, punched him, dragged him up just to throw him down again. I screamed his name, but my voice didn’t reach him. I ran forward, but the space between us stretched like an endless hallway, no matter how fast I moved. I tried to save him but I couldn’t.
