Novel & Cerita The End Of Sparta: A Novel

A ghost of a smile appeared on her lips but it eventually vanished. “He went out first. The team needed him immediately.” I nodded and shyly stood up from bed. Of course, he’s the Alpha. Why would he even wait for me, right? I just fixed myself before docking from the ship. My mouth dropped open when I saw the situation outside. Trees were lifeless. I don’t even think there’s life here. Buildings and houses were destroyed and burned. This has become their life? In all of my years in experience, I have never saw something like this. Even being a Warrior Witch, I have never seen something like this.

“Bravest strongest and arrogant Bashful proud but diligent The un-vanquished city shall be his grave None but a sacrifice to Gods could save The Slayer of Knots would die by, A disloyal Ganymede on day nine: The cursed city would weal havoc A Golden Age would break forth The fire would spread through Hella’s heart A clash of two heavens would cause the spark On the month of Daesius , die or do your part.” It was as if the words gargled out forth her unmoved lips. Eyes unfocused and lips slightly parted, Cassandra looked horrified as if any evil spirit has possessed her. It remained just for a few moments and then she tumbled down on the steps of Parthenon, unconscious. Silence prevailed wick

Joanna rolled down the car window, gulping fresh air to combat the suffocating weight on her heart. So, this was it. She finally understood. To Henley, the one who had once saved him had now become the very embodiment of his trauma. People were contradictory and complicated. Memories of their darkest days together flooded back—the blood-stained walls, the violence, the young man clinging to her as if she were his last lifeline. His desperate whisper echoed in her mind. "Joanna, I have nothing left. You're all I have. If you ever leave me, take me with you. Don't let me suffer here alone."

After a few minutes, Aidan tore the divorce papers into pieces as he seemed to shout something at the Alpha King. The Alpha King only patted his shoulder before he turned around and left. Standing behind Aidan, Seraphina, who initially looked tense, finally smiled. However, she changed into a concerned expression before she stepped forward. She wanted to touch Aidan’s shoulder. Just as she put her hand on his shoulder, Aidan angrily swept everything from the table. Seraphina quickly dodged the hot coffee, but some of it still stained her white dress. Aidan did not avoid the coffee. He let the hot coffee burn his arm as he paced back and forth anxiously.

The hand holding the food container trembled as though it had lost all strength. Had they just showered together? Had Ethan stayed the night? Had they slept together? A wave of bitterness flooded my chest. My heart was aching. Then what had five years of devotion amounted to? A joke. As my thoughts spiraled uncontrollably, Clara stepped out. She wore a silk slip dress that clung to her curves, the hem so short it nearly brushed the tops of her thighs. From head to toe, she was all slender waist, long legs, pale skin, and striking beauty, with every curve perfectly placed.

Destroy what it had become in the process of learning to love. Elena grabbed Elara and Julian still partially shifted, still bleeding, still unable to stop what was happening. “The vault,” she whispered. “The journals. There’s another way. There has to be.” But as they ran, as the consciousness began its final dissolution, as the Triad prepared to reclaim something that had chosen freedom over safety, Elara understood: The consciousness hadn’t severed the bond to save them. It had severed it because it finally understood what great-great-grandmother Elena had tried to teach it.

"He's close, I can sense him and that evil woman." Noah said as they made their way to the front line. Amelia drew her closer to him when he said those words, and Ryder slowed down his pace so he could stay close to them. "Wait." Ryder's father said, and they all paused, causing the troops behind them to stop as well. "He's here." Ryder whispered, and went to stand in front of Noah and Amelia. There was the sound of leaves and twigs crushing under the feet of many men, before Jasper and Camille appeared, with a great multitude of troops right behind them.

Sophia's voice trembled. "Marcus Kane." Her hands began shaking. "He killed my mother." Silence. Nobody moved. Nobody spoke. Emma stared at her. "What?" Sophia burst into tears. "When I was eight years old, my mother disappeared." Victor slowly nodded. "I know." Sophia looked up. "You knew?" Victor closed his eyes. "Because I was there." Emma's heart stopped. "What?" Victor's face filled with regret. "I watched Marcus Kane destroy your family." The room fell silent.

"Yes, Luke. I'm throwing you away now. From now on, you can stay exactly where you belong and spend the rest of your life regretting how you betrayed me and destroyed everything." "No, Bianca! You can't do this to me! Come back!" He cried out desperately and slammed his hands against the glass. The guards immediately restrained him. I stood, smoothed the wrinkles from my shirt, then turned and walked away without looking back. Outside, the sunlight was almost blinding. I looked up. Clouds drifted slowly across the blue sky. Ramond was dead, and Luke's life was destroyed. Their so-called happy family of three had been nothing more than an illusion built on lies and betrayal.

A broken scream tore from my throat. “Mom!” The flesh on my hands was shredded. Even that pain was nothing compared to the pain in my heart. Memories of all the sweet moments I once shared with Suzanna flashed through my mind. Regret and hatred twisted inside me until I coughed up blood and collapsed. As my consciousness faded, I whispered, “Suzanna, from this moment on, we mean nothing to each other anymore.”
