Rhys Wakefield Purge 소설 & 이야기

The mother of his child and what had happened to her and why she'd sent R to him and then vanished from the world. "The person you're looking for," Phoenix said, with the careful tone of someone who'd heard this before and was still moved by it in ways he kept controlled, "is the only person who might have accessed the relevant files before they were destroyed." "The only person I know of," Rhys confirmed. "My investigators went as far as they could go with conventional methods. Whisper119 went further. Whatever they found in there before the shutdown—if they extracted anything, if any of it survived—that's the closest I've come to an answer in five years."

I murmured, my heart thudding a final, syncopated rhythm. "We're going back to the rain." But as we hit the first layer of the clouds, Ryan’s tablet shrieked. The "Gene-Clearance" hadn't been stopped. The First Omega had sent the final code before she shattered. The global resonance map didn't just flash gold. It began to turn white. "Phoenix..." Ryan whispered, his face a mask of absolute, structural failure. "The purge isn't coming for us. It's coming for every wolf who knelt."

Rhys sat behind his desk, phone pressed to his ear, watching the morning sun seep through his office window. “Cut all ties with Mr. Walker’s corporation. Every contract, every partnership, I want them gone by morning.” His voice was calm, which made it worse. “And make sure he loses every investment we control. I want to watch his stocks plummet.” A pause as his assistant confirmed. “Good. Maybe that’ll teach him to keep his damn eyes to himself.”

“You sabotaged your own tower. You framed your own son. You wanted me ruined.” “Yes,” Harrison said simply. “And?” Savannah blinked. “And?” Harrison tilted his head. “Girl, you married into power. Did you think morality came with it?” Jackson’s hands curled into fists. “You don’t get to walk out of here.” “Oh, I already have,” Harrison said, gesturing to the glowing console. “In three minutes, the purge completes. All physical records upstairs are useless now. And the digital ones here will vanish forever.” Cole stepped forward. “I can stop it.”

I asked, aghast. “I didn’t mean to,” Rhys pleaded, tears lacing his eyes. “What do you mean ?” I asked, too shocked to comprehend what was happening. However, I snarled, stepping closer, the predator in me clawing for release. “Explain yourself. Now !” That had Rhys talking quickly. “I admit that I stored the fireworks in the basement and deleted the entry in the accounting books,” Rhys admitted, his voice shaking. “But I swear, I did not set them off,” he told Bolt more than me, begging the beta wolf to believe him.

I asked, standing up and pulling Silas to his feet. "I’m the **Original-Draft**," the man said, tipping his hat. "The version of Aris Vance that he 'Deleted' when he decided to become a hero. I’m the 'Cynic' he didn't want you to see. And if you want to stop the 'Hard-Purge,' you’re going to have to help me **Hack the Administrator**." I looked back up. The "Hard-Purge" was coming down like a curtain of white fire, erasing the "Wireframe" world above us.

His expression flickered—curiosity, maybe even doubt. Sophia continued. “You talk about inevitability like it’s sacred. But we’ve seen what people do with truth. With transparency. They don’t always choose the lie.” Aether tilted his head. “Some do. Enough do.” “Not all,” she said. “And that’s enough for us to fight.” --- Raven moved quickly, setting her spike into the server port. “I’m triggering a purge. Every node that hasn’t yet synced to external forks.” Aether watched calmly. “You’ll set progress back years.”

I nodded “yes, but that is not the issue Rhys, they are sick… I don’t know what it is, but it was bad…. Grace has been using wolvesbane on them as a cure” Rhys growled, his eyes turning pitch black “where the hell is she!” I place my hand on his shoulders stopping him “you need to calm down Rhys” “Get out of my way!” I added pressure on my hand “I am serious Rhys, take a breather” I said. He moved away from me “I need a fucking run” he said and headed out of the door. I did not make a move to stop him this time, I just got out of the way and allowed him to leave.

The disappointment and bitterness gnawed at me, wearing me down. Still, the moment he saw me injured, it didn't matter how he tried to hide it, the sheer panic and worry on his face were unmistakable. "Carlee, don't be scared! I'm here!" His voice, mixed with the pounding rain, filtered through the shattered window, sending a chill down my spine. The smell of gasoline inside the car was getting stronger, and I had no idea when it might explode. Moreover, with the flash flood raging down the mountain, who knew if it would sweep through the road at the base?
