It had never changed, never moved, never spoke since the day she vanished. And now, something has happened to it. Tobias stares at me, uncertain. “Luna?” I force a smile that doesn’t reach my eyes. “It’s all right. Come, we’ll go meet them.” The omegas don’t try to stop me, though fear flickers in every gaze that follows. Will crosses himself instinctively, whispering, “The world’s turning again.” I don’t answer. I can’t. The path towards the gate is narrow, framed by tall olive trees that whisper secrets in the wind. The air grows cooler as we move, the sunlight dimming beneath the canopy. Birds scatter at the sound of our footsteps.

It was the last small piece of hope I held for this world. This was the man I had loved, feared, and tried to understand. On his scale, my pain and his rug held the same weight. Morgan waved her hand. “Enough. Stop being an eyesore. “Go wash up. Do not let that poverty of yours touch my son.” I lowered my head and stepped back as if released from a sentence. As I walked toward the bathroom, I heard Morgan say behind me, “Daniel, these playthings are fine for amusement, but Ms. Weston is back for her break. You should meet her.”

One of our villa districts had already been transformed into a steel fortress, strong enough to keep even zombies out. Remembering the extreme cold from my previous life, I felt a chill deep in my bones. I added a few more instructions. I told them to move all the supplies underground, stock up on heating equipment, and make sure the place could stay warm continuously for 50 years. In my previous life, we died early, at the hands of the Bakers. I never found out how long the freeze would last. However, my family had power and resources. Upgrading a place like that was nothing for them.

His brow lifted slightly. “Ran.” “They’re not training us,” Emma added. “They’re conditioning us.” “For what?” he asked coolly. “For war,” I answered. “For leverage and attack against the werewolves.” He stopped moving. “Explain.” I swallowed. “Kyra is in danger.” The name lingered in the air. His expression didn’t change, but his attention sharpened. “She’s the Last Omega,” I said. That did it. A faint shift in his eyes.

She needs me there to do just about anything right. "I should've put distance between us a long time ago. "I don't want to divorce Melissa, but I've let her down too many times." Walter found his breaking point, and tears streamed down his face without restraint. "Then... then you go." By then, I had made it to Lyndon without a hitch. The professor and some seniors were there at the airport to welcome me. It had been ages since I last visited, and those times were always too hurried to catch up with anyone.

spoke to himself as if it were a spell, one that would somehow make him believe that it was possible, that she could overcome those traumas somehow, And I wish I could give her the lap she needed when she couldn’t take it. Going through processes alone was painful, no matter what the process was. "These wires...they’ll never fall apart, will they?" Amethyst’s eyes were empty, completely opaque and no more life "they’ll stay here forever, won’t they?" asked things like he was in that cell again, as if the only thing I had was the moonlight and that dagger that was as bright silver as Audra’s eyes. Yes, the bright eyes, the eyes that were the last thing she had seen in that icy, lonely darknes

Sophia didn't sound entirely convinced, but she chose to let it go. "Well, don't forget your rehearsal this afternoon," Sophia reminded her, her tone brightening. "The charity concert is only two weeks away. You've been preparing for months, so don't let one bad night throw you off." Elena offered a small nod, wishing it had truly been just a bad night. Across the city, inside a black SUV parked beneath an office tower, a completely different conversation was taking place. A phone vibrated against the console, and the man in the driver's seat answered it without looking at the screen.

On the dining table, beside Adrian's neat stack of vinyl proofs and tour passes, Lily's marked-up lyrics were spread out in pink highlighter. My lyrics. The Last Firework, with hearts drawn around the chorus and little notes in the margin. Make this softer. Ask A if I can sing this line alone. I thought of the yellow lamp I had once bought at a flea market because it looked like something from my mother's old apartment. Adrian had taken one look at it and said, "Please don't bring that cheap-looking thing into my house." Now Lily's things were everywhere, and somehow his house had survived. I forced myself into the office.

The money I had saved from that month’s wages was just enough to cover the deposit. On the morning I officially opened for business, the sunlight was beautiful. I bought an acrylic display case and placed the damaged recipe book inside, setting it where everyone could see it. The tear across the page was left plainly visible. It was my mother’s legacy and proof of every step I had taken to get here. Dylan came by again. He had lost so much weight he barely looked like himself. He waited in line at the window and ordered the cheapest breakfast set. When it was time to pay, he did not scan the QR code. Instead, he pressed the document showing the ring’s canceled registration beside the payment

"Uh, Zac organised it for me." "Yes! I'm so glad you came. Come with me." The Last Word was a beautiful place. Everything in the store was basically wood. The register was at the front and behind it was columns of bookshelves. On the side of the registers were stairs leading up to a balcony that wrapped around the store. It looked larger than what it did on the outside. "There is our manager- Owen!" She shouts at him. "I'll be back downstairs if you need anything," Zari said and went back downstairs.
