CHAPTER SEVENTY ONE: The City is Mine
“Juliet… Juliet… look what you’ve made me do.”I stood at the edge of a rooftop, right at the very top, the cold Paris wind brushing against my face as I looked down at the streets below.Cars moved like slow streams of light.People walked, talked, laughed—Completely unaware of what was happening around them.Or rather…What I had made happen.For days now, I had been searching for her.Alone.No help.No leads.Nothing.So I changed the game.One by one—I started taking control.Police officers.Civilians.Anyone I came across.A glance.A few words.And they were mine.Now they all carried her face on their phones.Her image burned into their minds.Searching.Watching.Reporting.An entire city…Looking for one girl.And still—Nothing.I exhaled slowly, my eyes scanning the endless streets below.“Maybe this was all for nothing…” I muttered.Paris wasn’t enough.If she wasn’t here—Then I would have to expand.France.Maybe beyond.I was just about to turn away—When my phone r
CHAPTER SEVENTY: Captain of Nothing
I returned to the safe house in Paris with a small bag of groceries in my hand.The streets were quiet, the morning still settling in, but something felt… off.I didn’t think much of it at first.I got to the door, unlocked it, and stepped inside.I was expecting noise.Metal clanking.Low conversations.Maybe even arguments.My two men—cleaning, checking weapons, organizing the gun supplies we had found in the safe house.But instead—Silence.The kind that immediately tells you something is wrong.I paused just inside the doorway, my eyes scanning the room slowly.Empty.Completely empty.No movement.No voices.No signs of anyone.My grip on the grocery bag tightened slightly.Then I noticed it.A piece of paper on the table.Torn.Carelessly placed.I walked over, each step heavier than the last, and picked it up.My eyes ran across the words."Captain, we are sorry for what we are about to do… but you can’t really blame us. This is a losing war. We were sixteen when we set out on
CHAPTER SIXTY NINE: The False Prophecy
Jane glanced down at the lifeless body on the ground like it was nothing more than an inconvenience.“Well,” she said calmly, “we’ve fixed your problem.”Her voice carried no weight of what had just happened. No guilt. No hesitation.Just certainty.“Better clean up the body fast.”Then she reached for my hand, her fingers sliding into mine like it was the most natural thing in the world.“Let’s go, Stephen.”I let her pull me slightly, but I didn’t move.“Wait.”My voice came out steady.Jane stopped.So did everyone else.“I need to clarify something,” I said.I looked at Juliet first.She looked… shaken.Completely frozen, her eyes locked on the dead man like she couldn’t process what she had just witnessed. Her breathing was uneven, her body stiff, like she was still trying to convince herself this was real.Then I shifted my gaze.The others.Timi looked like he wanted to say something but held it back, his jaw tight with tension. Daniel… Daniel was staring at me like I was a pro
CHAPTER SIXTY EIGHT: Frozen in Desire
The man Francis had called Nate stepped forward slightly, his posture calm but clearly irritated.“Francis,” he said, his voice smooth but edged with impatience, “I have a ball to host downstairs. Are you going to get to the point of this meeting… or are you and your friends going to keep pointing fingers all night?”The room fell silent again.Francis raised his hands slightly. “My apologies.”Then he turned—his eyes landing directly on me.“Can we all behave like civilized people?” he said calmly.I didn’t respond.My attention was elsewhere.But he continued anyway.He turned back to the group in white and began explaining.“It’s about a girl,” he said. “Ayara.”He spoke clearly, carefully.“She was born a werewolf… but later became a vampire as well.”That alone drew subtle reactions from the group.“But something went wrong,” Francis continued. “After a while, her body began rejecting the transformation. Completely.”He paused briefly.“She’s basically human now.”A faint shift m
CHAPTER SIXTY SEVEN: La Nuit Éternelle
The past two weeks had been long…Too long.And hard in ways I wasn’t prepared for.Ayara lay on the bed, barely conscious, her breathing shallow, her body weak in a way that didn’t make sense for someone like her. We had tried everything—every idea, every remedy—but nothing worked.We had no clue what was wrong with her.And that was the scariest part.We had already said our goodbyes once.That alone should’ve been enough.Timi had taken her back to Antarctica, back to Nhim—the only place we believed could save her. The sacred spirit shrine, the source of their strength… it was supposed to restore her.But when he got there…Everything was gone.A war had broken out between the Nhim and the Braves, and by the time he arrived, it was already too late. The kingdom had been destroyed—reduced to ruins. The sacred shrine… gone.The energy of the spirits had vanished completely.There was nothing left.No power.No hope.He had no choice but to bring her back.And now…Now she lay here, f
CHAPTER SIXTY SIX: Midnight in Paris
Blue Luck nightclub stood alive in the heart of the city, brighter, louder, more modern—but still carrying that same energy I remembered. The neon lights flickered above the entrance, music pulsing faintly even from outside, bass vibrating through the walls like a heartbeat.I stepped in.Instantly, I was swallowed by the atmosphere—lights flashing in different colors, bodies moving to the rhythm of the music, laughter, voices, chaos. The air was thick with perfume, alcohol, and something darker beneath it all.It hadn’t changed.Not really.I walked to the bar, ordered a drink, then another. The liquid burned slightly on the way down, but it didn’t affect me the way it would a human.Then I moved to the dance floor.I didn’t think. I didn’t plan.I just… moved.Strangers came and went—faces I didn’t care to remember, bodies brushing past mine, laughter shared for no reason. For a few hours, I let myself blend into it all.Disappear.Eventually, I found someone.A girl—carefree, unawa
