I could feel her breath like she was behind me. What I read were exactly the stories she told me back when she was alive. I flipped the pages when I saw another title that peaked at me.

I still hated him and that hadn’t changed. Needing a distraction, I headed to the library, determined to lose myself in a book. My fingers trailed over the spines until I settled on a book on the second world war. It wasn’t the type of book I would usually go for, but Lorenzo’s collection was as dark and intense as the man himself—history, philosophy, and war. Hours slipped by unnoticed, the afternoon sun casting golden light through the tall windows. My stomach grumbled, reminding me I hadn’t eaten since breakfast. With a sigh, I closed the book and made my way to the kitchen.

We had to be ready to pay the price. I should have felt righteous as we closed the door and moved into the dark, but the victory did not taste like anything yet. It tasted like cold iron and the knowledge that this war would not end with one head. It would end with many and I was ready to make sure each one fell in time.

And whispered: "Your death was a beginning, not an escape. I won’t waste it." Outside, the city blinked to life. And somewhere in the dark, the war that could’ve been faded. But its echo would never truly vanish. ~~~~~ BOOK OF BLOOD — ENTRY: WHAT IF "He dreamt of fire without end. And woke to a world with fragile peace. Fragile… but his.” "In a dream, I saw my father win the war. And the world lose itself." "Peace was never his path. It was mine." "And to walk it, I had to let him go."

She had never tasted pasta this good — not even at the fancy Italian restaurants her father used to take her to. “It’s…” She swallowed and forced her expression to stay neutral. “It’s too salty.” She lied, taking another dramatic forkful to hide her smile. Dante scoffed. “That’s the worst lie you’ve ever told, Arabelle.” He chuckled as she burst into soft laughter. “I’m sure you haven’t tasted a meal this good before. “Fine,” she held up her hand. “You got me. It’s delicious. Like… really delicious. I rate it ten.”

“I want to celebrate on something that isn’t concrete.” He floored it. Behind us, the warehouse burned like a beacon. Ahead of us, the war had finally, truly begun. And God, it felt good.

I am expecting her to be alive and kicking. He is still putting the spoon in my mouth and he is just waiting for me to taste it. I dont wanna taste it. But realizing how much effort he put just to make this poison just to poison me—food, want me to taste this one. Please, you must be good. You know what, I don't believe in the saying don't judge the book by its cover but by tasting this one. Huh! How I wish I didn't appreciate things so that I didn't taste this.

The voice said its tone sarcastic. I shook my head, trying to clear the doubts from my mind. I had made my bed, now I had to lie in it. I would just have to be careful and make sure my cover didn't get blown. But as I turned to lock the door, I couldn't shake the feeling that I was being watched. I glanced around but saw nothing. Still, the feeling was there, like the bitter taste of regret that hung at the back of my throat after I landed myself in this mess.

“I know, I know. It’s an acquired taste.” “That’s one way to put it,” I muttered, forcing myself to swallow. The warmth spread through my chest, oddly soothing despite the initial assault on my taste buds. I took a few more spoonfuls, my headache easing slightly. Maybe there was some magic in this terrible-tasting soup after all. Katie smirked. “Told you. Now eat your food before you pass out. You look like death warmed over.” Rolling my eyes, I reached for the toast and eggs, my stomach begrudgingly welcoming the meal.

She screamed, still looking up. "Ahhhhhhh!" She screamed, like never before... War has started. This is survival of the fittest, Who will survive and who won't?
