Damp concrete, metal, the faint metallic tang of blood already hanging heavy. Four of my men stood guard near the entrance. I gave them a sharp nod. They left without a word. We walked deeper. Small, broken whimpers drifted from the far end. Painful gasps. Chains rattling faintly. Amber’s grip on my hand tightened. She still looked confused, until we rounded the last row of shelves. There she was. Irina. Wrists chained high above her head. Her arms stretched wide, toes barely brushing the floor.

I Rewrote the Ending. "I wasn't 'Not Enough' because of the square, Weaver," I whispered, pressing my scarred hand against the silver-oil. "I was Too Much for a world that only knew how to take!". I drove the charred, black-emerald key into the heart of the First Thread.

I calmly stated as I quickly hid my killing intent but the butler could sense my anger. “Are you prepared to dirty your hands for them?” The butler asked out of curiosity. I looked at him with a smile on my lips yet my eyes weren't smiling. “My hands are already stained, why would I need to bother about it as long as I can kill them? I'll chase them to hell even if it means it brings me misery.” END OF CHAPTER 8

He watched in astonishment when the wound closed and another arm grew in its place, the new hand was caressing a ball of fire, which unceremoniously Zachary threw at him with a deadly force hitting his torso, burning his skin.

Rowan lunged for his golden shadow, their blades clashing with a sound like glass breaking. "Iris! The book!" Rowan shouted, parrying a blow that would have leveled a house. "Do whatever you're going to do!" I turned to the Manuscript. I threw open the cover. The pages were blank, but as I looked at them, words began to appear—thousands of lines of text scrolling at impossible speeds. IRIS (PROTAGONIST) FEELS CONFLICTED. IRIS WEEPING.
