When she pushed the door open, Anya was there, a mass of black mist clawing toward the neck of a sleeping woman on the bed. Seraphina raised two fingers and sent a small blaze of soul fire shooting forward. It struck Anya squarely. Anya shrieked and pulled back at once, then froze when she saw Seraphina and Kieran. In the next instant, she tried to flee.

It wasn’t her though; it was Osline, but it’s still the same thing. I had to burn my hand to match the exact pain she’s probably feeling, to punish myself. I know it’s crazy, but like I said, I can’t help it. After I rinse away the spilled coffee, I open the cupboard and pull out my lighter. For a moment my stomach drops. I stare at it, heart racing in my ribs. I flick the flame and press it to my arm. I hold back my scream as it keeps burning me. This is what happens when I can’t stop thinking about ‘her’ I have to hurt myself until I can stop.

Elise’s voice coming through a payphone on the other end of a prison barrier. “Just survive it,” Elise whispered. “Survive it, and I’ll come get you.” The memory hit them both. Sera didn’t flinch. Echo staggered. > “Where are we ” Sera grabbed her by the shoulder, dragging her through time. > 2016. An apartment fire. Sirens in the distance.

His complexion cycled rapidly from a ghostly white to a deep, burning crimson, and finally to a sickly, suffocating blue. He realized, with absolute certainty, that there was no mercy to be found here. The bridge wasn't just burned; it had been totally vaporized. He couldn't say another word. Crying hysterically, he scrambled backward toward the grand doors, tripped over his own wet shoes, and practically tumbled down the front steps into the roaring storm outside. A few days later, the financial and tech news channels broke the story globally.

He then left the room, leaving the door ajar. The sounds from the next room were muffled at first, a rattling of chains then, a sharp slap. Barbara flinched, but Mellisa’s eyes remained fixed on the doorway, a strange anticipation in their depths. Then, a sharp cry, unmistakably Mellisa’s, followed by another slap. Barbara’s heart hammered against her ribs.

To be precise, it was Simon who had smashed open my front door with his men and slaughtered their way through. Sally, Serena McFadden, and the rest of my crew had died from stray bullets. I had broken down, screaming again and again, "I didn't hurt her!" Simon had ignored me and coldly pressed a button in his hand. With a deafening boom, the three core armories I had bled to build were gone in an instant. In this life, I didn't want him anymore, and I wouldn't hurt Giara. I just wanted everyone to live.

I led her to a quiet corner and lit a cigarette out of habit. Madison stood awkwardly in front of me. Her voice came softly. "You used to hate cigarette smoke. Why are you—" "Just cut to the chase, or leave," I said curtly, my voice icy. She paused. When she spoke again, her voice trembled. "I thought you were dead. Both of you."
