And I would be behind the counter cooking some dinner for h… Focus. Just stay focused Xander and stop daydreaming, this is not Nirvana. In this life I lived, it's either you got your shit together, or you get buried 6 feet underground. Even being buried was more civilized. Bodies were found dumped in sewers and lakes, so yeah. Some people thought you’d have to be a really messed up fuck to live the life I do and actually enjoy it. But it was who I am, it was in me.

"Even if I were close to death, I wouldn't need you to save me." The door slammed shut, and the last sliver of light vanished. Someone had set the air conditioning to an icy chill. I felt as if frost was forming on my skin. My hands were slowly going numb, and with that numbness, a cold realization settled in my chest. As a doctor, I knew without doubt that my hands were ruined. As for Galen's life, there was no one left in the world who could save him. Just as the cold and hunger threatened to crush me, the basement door burst open.

“This was not the time for that.” Kaelen felt his chest give, leaving his lungs losing air in his breath. The creatures charged at him, dodging all that Kaelen threw at them, and he stabbed his sword in the chest of one and the next. With a guttural screech, the creature crumpled in a heap of charred tissue. Serena made a sound, sucking in oxygen through her throat. The Ruins were worse than anything she’d known. They weren’t even beasts; they were corseted husks of a distant abomination, and the sight of them made her quail.

Everything between us finally came to an end. At that moment, a sharp scream echoed from the rooftop, followed by a violent tremor. I looked up. The rooftop structure collapsed entirely, sending debris and dust swirling through the air. Claire’s figure was buried beneath the ruins; not a trace of her remained. The woman who had ruined my entire life had finally received her ending. I floated in midair, silently watching as the world continued to destroy itself. Buildings collapsed. The earth shattered. Lava erupted. Oceans overflowed.

Violet POV “ Stupid irish brut” I hissed walking to the closet to pick up my clothes for the night. “ I’m going to pay you back for humiliating me and making your stupid guards touch my skin, you arrogant, stupid, toxic dumb head” I screamed at the empty room, throwing a hanger across the room. I caught my reflection in the mirror and stopped dead, I have never looked this horrific, my hair was a mess and clothes were ruined stained with whatever disgusting filth on that warehouse floor.

The word comes out strangled, barely a whisper. “Miss, you can’t be here…” “That’s my mother’s purse!” I’m screaming now, “that was her phone! Where is she? Where is she?” “Miss, there was an accident. You can’t be here.” And somewhere in the distance, an ambulance siren wails, carrying her farther and farther away from me.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ The world tilts. I stare at the purse and the phone,the broken glass catching the red and blue lights.

“Because he was proud of you.” Tears burn behind my eyes. “He said you were stubborn,” Ruin says. “Too smart for your own good. That you survived things that should’ve broken you.” My shoulders shake with the silent sobs I can’t control. “He said you had a wolf that refused to die,” Ruin finishes quietly. “And that if anyone ever tried to cage you again… he’d burn the world down.” A soft, aching sound slips from my throat. I press my fists to my eyes, trying to hold myself together.

Jason followed him and glanced back once with an apologetic smile while the cold girl named Alyssa stared at Noah for a bit before taking her leave too. Noah, on the other hand, frowned. He didn't know what the man was talking about. To his knowledge, Ruins were sort of like inheritance grounds where a high level Battlesoul master once lived while they were alive. The things found could be weapons, Elixirs, resources or battle techniques. He didn't think that his three-day absence would cost him some valuable intel.

The foundation of love she had built her life upon had crumbled, leaving her to navigate the fragments of her once-cherished relationships with a wounded spirit and a mind overwhelmed by conflicting emotions. Riya's heart, once whole and vibrant, now lay shattered into innumerable fragments, each piece representing the trust she once held for others. It seemed as if the very foundation of her existence had crumbled, leaving her adrift in a sea of despair. Waves of anguish washed over her as the stark reality of her pathetic life took hold. No respite could be found from the relentless tears that streamed down her face, a reflection of the overwhelming pain that consumed her.
