There was no satisfaction or pity, only a near-calm indifference. The mountain that once crushed me had long since eroded into a heap of dust by the roadside, unnoticed. And I had crossed that mountain, now seeing a wider world beyond. I hit delete and blocked the number. Some images aren’t worth keeping, just like how some people didn’t deserve space in memory.

For one brief second, hope returned to his face. “Really?” “Yes,” I said. “But I will never go back to you.” The light in his eyes went out. “Aria…” “Forgiveness is not another chance. It only means I’m done carrying you with me.” He stood there without moving. Outside the hall, winter sunlight fell across the steps.

“Yoon Taeha.” Taeha turned. Jaehun stopped directly in front of him. “Do you like Han Seoyun?” “Yes.” The answer came without the slightest hesitation. Jaehun’s jaw tightened. “She’s a married woman.” “She’s a woman preparing for a divorce.” Taeha met his gaze evenly. “And what happens after that is her decision.” Jaehun punched him. His fist struck Taeha across the mouth. The nearby security officers immediately moved toward them, but Taeha raised a hand, stopping them.

~ Heath ~ “Alpha?” “Do it now!” My command is heavy with my alpha aura, leaving Dane with no choice but to obey. Would it be kinder to shoot them…perhaps…but the werewolf world cannot rebuild if there are no werewolves left. The ominous thud of the electricity lever being turned on resonates within my chest, as one by one my once obedient pack members drop down to the ground. The smell of burning flesh spreading around us, their bodies writhing on the ground in pain.

All he knew was from his instincts that the man standing in front of him was his worst fear. "Let me remind you," Joonjae said. "You...you took the life of the person I cherish the most.

“I’m just thankful that we are still your mates, I was worried that things would end up being different with you not being a fallen.” I shook my head in shock. “What’s a fallen?” “They were angels in past lives and they’re used as tools to combat demons. They’re extremely rare because they’re normally killed off but you had survived. Baby, what I’m telling you is the truth.” He said. “This is a bit much for me to digest honestly, I barely know any of you.” I told him. A fallen? What’s he going on about things being different? I’m so confused. “I made you fall in love with me once, I’ll do it again.” He approached me and I felt tingles, proving that we were mates. He rested his forehead on to

She finally enjoyed a few days of peace. … One evening after work, Gwyneth and Kieran stopped by a diner and unexpectedly bumped into Asher and Liana. Liana was yanking on Asher's shirt in public, clearly arguing over something. Suddenly, Liana noticed Gwyneth sitting by the window. She marched up, grabbed a hot bowl of clam chowder, and dumped it all over Gwyneth. "Gwyneth, why are you still breathing? You should've died during the abortion!" Kieran quickly reached out and pulled Gwyneth into his arms.

*** Ji Hwan came to Aura's house shortly after reading Aura's text message informing him that she had landed in Seoul. "Ae Ra-ya! You're finally back!" "I missed you, Oppa!" "I missed you too! How does it feel to be a mom?" "Well, it's very enjoyable, although tiring!" Aura replied. "Then where's that annoying husband of yours?" "Oppa! Are you still not fond of him?" "I'm just kidding, Ae Ra-ya! Why are you so serious? Seeing how happy you are now, I'm sure Axel has done a good job taking care of you, as he promised," Ji Hwan replied sincerely while smile.

“And you—don’t get caught siding with me. If Clara senses even a hint of betrayal, I won’t save you. Remember that.” Rico nodded quickly, cold sweat beading at his temple. When the room finally emptied, Jaeyoon stood before the wide window, staring out at the city of Seoul bathed in glittering night lights. “Josh…” his voice was a low murmur. “This time, I’ll strike through your heart.
