Satella Re Zero Novels & Stories

access terminal. They weren't in a fishing village anymore. They were in the "Zero-Point" of the world. "The countdown for 'Project: Phoenix' has started," Aria said, pointing to a massive, holographic display that filled the center of the hall. "We have forty minutes before the 'Great Re-Stabilization' goes live." Ethan looked at the terminal. It didn't have a keyboard. It had two biometric plates—one for the "Furious Youth" and one for the "Iterative Asset."

"Did the Alpha just say what I think he said?" I forced myself to speak past the lump in my throat. "Who are you?" "Don't you know?" A ghost of a smile crossed his lips. It did not reach his eyes. Then I saw the marking on his collar, a silver crescent moon ringed in thorns, and my heart stopped. "You are Alpha Zarek," I whispered. "Our Alpha." "I am." He tilted his head, studying me. "And you are my fated mate, which means you are my Luna."

The room was silent, save for the crackle of burning wires. Aradaa’s eyes cleared. He looked at the ceiling, then at Kaelor. "They... they have it," Aradaa whispered. Kaelor pulled back, his face a wreck of soot and grief. "Have what?" "The code for the satellites," Aradaa said. He reached out, his trembling hand touching Kaelor’s cheek. "The Southern Federation... they’re not building a city, Kaelor. They’re building their own hive mind. And they're going to use my mother to run it."

Camelia asked, smiling graciously at a passing French senator. "Global. Two hundred million live viewers. The feed is unhackable—we’re running it through the Phoenix Grid’s primary relay." Camelia saw him then. Kaito Sato stood near the grand staircase, surrounded by a phalanx of admirers. He looked triumphant, the air of a man who believed he held the master key to the world’s most powerful company. When his eyes met Camelia’s, he offered a slight, knowing nod. He thought William had broken. He thought the deal in Tegel was the end of Camelia’s reign.

Once everything was in order, I gathered every gift Jasper had ever given me and burned them all. Under cover of darkness, I took my son in my arms and boarded the next flight out of the country. The following day, the banquet hall was full of guests who were here for the celebration, but there was no sign of me anywhere. Jasper called my phone over and over again, but every call went straight to voicemail. Panic crept in. Something felt very wrong. He raced home but found nothing on the nightstand but a single note. 'The Gamma homeworld has summoned me back to my planet. I'm taking the kid and ditching the dad. Don't miss me. Don't wait up.'

Chapter 198: The Sky-Fall Protocol The warning didn't come from Vance’s console or the ship’s dying sirens. It came from the stars themselves. The bruised violet sky above Lagos-Aethelgard suddenly turned a blinding, clinical white as six distinct orbital nodes ignited in the upper atmosphere. The offshore cartels had officially given up on asset recovery. They weren't trying to reclaim their investment anymore; they were cleansing the ledger with kinetic rods of solid tungsten falling from the satellite arrays at Mach ten.

Felicity replied while slightly turning her head towards Lucia now. Lucia nodded her head slowly, before finally releasing the embrace of her right hand from Felicity's shoulder. "This is my car. Come on." Lucia walked over to the black SUV that was in front of them now. She unlocked it, and got into the car. Similarly, Felicity got into Lucia's black SUV as well.

Giselle straightened up and looked him squarely in the eyes. “No,” she said coolly. “The contract says one round for one hundred thousand dollars. That’s the deal. If you want another, you’ll have to book me again—and my schedule is full.” Alpha Joel’s expression darkened, and he reached out to grab her arm, but his strength was no match for hers. With a swift push, Giselle shoved him back, making him stumble onto the bed.

Cattleya prompted her, “Get in the car. Fast!” She hardly closed the car door when Cattleya shifted the gears, brutally reversing the car in a curve, making the tyres screech before hitting the gas pedal. The engine roared fiercely, the Bugatti Chiron accelerating furiously, reaching a phenomenal 100kph in mere seconds. “Seatbelt, love.” Selena buckled her seatbelt, downright scared. She clasped her phone, calling Cassandra and she wasn’t answering. She swallowed hard, trying again and again, her tears blurring her eyes, as she exclaimed amidst the noise engine, “Why isn’t she picking up?”

Elias roared as he knew she would be asking another question if he did not put an end to this conversation. "I'm the Luna and you have to obey me or you'll be punished for disobedience, you think I'm weak because I'm a woman. I'm the Luna of this pack so accord me with respect, I deserve it" Reyna roars as Elias cackles; "You want to punish me?"
