Novel & Cerita Your Words Cut Deep Deeper Than Any Blade

The blade sliced through my skin, and I cried out, pain radiating through my body. Maya’s eyes were wild, her expression manic. “You think you’re so much better than me,” she hissed, her voice dripping with venom. “You think you’re the hero, the savior. But you’re just a coward, hiding behind your ideals. You don’t have what it takes to win. You never did.”

Like chains being dragged across bone. And deep inside, my wolf—what’s left of her—whimpers. She knows this tongue, and she’s terrified. He lifts the blade again. The next cut is longer. From my sternum to just above my navel. Shallow. Deliberate. Cruel. The blade sings as it moves, not slicing, but waking up.

Ignoring my writhing body and muffled cries, he deepened the cut, the blade a torturous extension of his malevolence. My body trembled violently, every nerve ending screaming in protest. As I thrashed beneath him, he laughed, a cruel, mocking sound that reverberated through the small room. “This is what happens when you disrespect me, you slut,” he sneered, the word a venomous insult that cut deeper than the blade. He pressed the knife further, the pain intensifying, the blade moving inexorably towards my most vulnerable areas. Desperate, I struggled, twisting and kicking, but each movement only intensified the agony.

Pathetic. I raise my arms, blade poised high, cold steel gleaming beneath the flickering light. I scream as I drive the blade deep into his chest, feeling it slice through flesh, muscle, and bone. I feel the brittle snap of our withered bond breaking inside me like a dry twig, echoing in my ribs. I press the blade in harder, snarling into his wild, panicked eyes, forcing him to relive every pathetic moment of his pitiful life as it bleeds out of him.

This man must not be human. “Because the title was never yours to begin with.” He goes on. My heart clenches. I should be used to it by now. The sharp edges of his words, the way he wields them like knives, cutting me down without hesitation. But somehow, each one still manages to pierce deeper than the last. I swallow past the lump in my throat, refusing to let him see how much it hurts. How much it breaks me to pieces with every word he says.

I stated, the words sharp and jagged. The words felt like shards of glass leaving my mouth, cutting into the silence of the room. “He didn't even bother to hide it from the pack or from me.” A profound, shocking silence filled the chamber at my revelation.

It was as if he realized the depth of the wounds he had inflicted with his thoughtless words but it was too late, I cut him short this time around, the weight of his words still echoing in my mind. "No, Cullen," I interjected, my voice laced with a mixture of anger. "You can't take back what you said. Those words cut deep, and I won't let them be brushed aside." I paused, then continued. "Don't you ever call me a hoe! Ever in your damn life, Cullen!" I exclaimed. The pain of his words reverberated within me, and I refused to let him diminish my worth. I turned to leave, the sting of his hurtful words still echoing in my ears, but Cullen's hand reached out, gripping my arm firmly, holding me

With extreme fear, Delilah shook her head vigorously as she pleaded, "Tristan, it's me, Lila! What are you…" A scream echoed through the air as he slapped her harshly across the face. He inserted the dagger between her thighs, his tone frosty as he asked, "Was this what you did to my child?" With each word Tristan spoke, his voice grew quieter. Soon, all that could be heard were Delilah's faint gasps. The live stream flickered with static, but the ban still hadn't been enforced. I felt a chill down my spine as I met his eyes on-screen.

The relentless sharpness of the blade methodically ended their lives. “You little bastard, you...you’re ruthless...”

He trusted me, and in that trust, I found my own strength. The reminder, realizing his empire of fear had crumbled, made a final attempt, a desperate lunge. Blade intercepted instantly, a brutal counter that left him gasping on the ground, powerless. I stepped forward, raising my voice, cutting through the remnants of his bravado: “You brought wolves to hunt me,” I said, letting the words hang in the charged air. “But you forgot one thing—wolves run together. And when we run together, no shadow can hold us down.”
