The morning sun rose over the Franfurt estate, painting its marble walls in gold. But inside, the air was tense, heavy, alive with the hum of preparation.

Denilson stood in the training yard, pistol in hand, Carver pacing behind him. Targets were set up along the far wall, human silhouettes marked with red circles at the heart and head, “Again,” Carver barked.

Denilson raised the gun, his wound pulling with each movement. BANG. BANG. Two shots ripped through the targets, one clean, the other slightly wide.

Carver exhaled smoke. “Too slow. You hesitate when the pain kicks in. Pain is a teacher, but only if you learn fast.” Denilson’s jaw tightened. “I’m learning.”

Carver smirked, stepping closer, his voice low. “Then learn this: trust no one. Not even me.” Denilson’s brow furrowed, but Carver clapped his shoulder and walked off before he could reply.

Inside the mansion, Jenna sat alone in a dim parlor, her hands wrapped around a glass of water. She hadn’t touched food in two days. The

  • Chapter One Hundred and Ten – The Wrath of the Crown

    The chains fell silent, Denilson knelt in the blinding white void, Jenna’s limp body in his arms, her warmth fading by the second. The molten shackles that bound her glowed brighter, dragging her deeper into the abyss with each pulse.“No… no, no, no!” His voice cracked, broken with a terror he hadn’t felt since the night he lost her the first time. His arms wrapped tighter, refusing to let her go, even as the chains tore at his flesh.The Prime circled them slowly, its golden robes whispering across the glass floor. It wore his face, smiling with the cruel serenity of a god.“This is balance,” it said softly. “Her sin, her choice, her chains. You are free because she is not. Rejoice, Denilson Franfurt. The abyss has already chosen its queen.”Denilson’s golden eye flared, but the third eye in his forehead remained sealed, unresponsive. Rage boiled under his skin, clawing, begging to be unleashed.He shook Jenna harder, his blood mixing with hers. “Wake up! Jenna, don’t you dare leave

  • Chapter One Hundred and Nine – Chains of the Crown

    The world vanished, Silence pressed on Jenna’s ears until she thought she’d gone deaf. The abyss was gone, the screaming winds, the devouring shadows, the Prime’s laughter, all erased in a single heartbeat.Yet the chains remained, They cut into her wrists and ankles, biting deeper every time she struggled. She tried to scream, but her throat was locked tight, her chest crushed by iron bands.She wasn’t floating anymore. She was standing. The void had shifted.A floor stretched beneath her, smooth, white, endless, like glass polished to eternity. No walls. No ceiling. Just blinding light. Her head snapped up. Denilson stood across from her.He was bound exactly the same way. Chains coiled around his chest, shoulders, legs, throat. His golden eye dimmed, his third eye shut. His body trembled, weak, but alive.“Denilson!” Jenna’s voice broke free, ragged, desperate. She tried to run, to tear toward him, but the chains yanked her back so violently her bones cracked.Blood sprayed from he

  • Chapter One Hundred and Eight – Into the Abyss

    The chains swallowed him, Denilson’s outstretched hand slipped from Jenna’s fingers, dragged downward into the chasm of shadows that split the void. His scream faded into the depths until only silence remained.Jenna collapsed to her knees at the edge, her nails raking into the obsidian ground. “DENILSON!” Her voice shattered across the infinite dark, raw and wild. “Don’t you leave me!”The abyss roared back, a black hurricane rising from its depths. Chains surged upward like serpents, snapping at her wrists, her wings, her throat.The Prime’s broken voice echoed from below, jagged and merciless. “If you want him, come and die with him.”Jenna’s tears streamed freely. Her wings flickered, feathers burning to ash, but she spread them anyway. Her body shook, bones creaking under the abyss’s pull.She knew the abyss wasn’t just darkness. It was everything the Crown had cast away, hatred, despair, endless hunger. No mortal could enter it and return whole, But she didn’t hesitate, She thre

  • Chapter One Hundred and Seven – The Blade Falls

    The void split with the scream of eternity as Denilson’s blade descended.Jenna closed her eyes, bracing for the pain, for the end, for the sound of her own life tearing apart. She had no shield, no strength left, only love blazing raw in her chest.The blade struck, But not her.Blood sprayed hot against her cheek, not hers, but his.Denilson’s scream ripped through the void as the black blade plunged, not into Jenna, but into his own side. His body convulsed violently, the weapon sinking deeper until it burst out through his ribs.The Prime’s smile faltered.“You”Denilson staggered, clutching the blade with one hand, his own blood pouring over Jenna’s trembling fingers as she caught him before he collapsed fully. His eyes lifted to hers, gold flickering faintly inside the void’s blackness.“I told you…” he rasped, his voice broken but defiant. “No crown commands me.”The Prime roared. The sound shook the void apart, chains rattling violently across the titan’s body.“You would woun

  • Chapter One Hundred and Six – The Fractured Soul

    Denilson’s body shot forward, faster than lightning, Jenna barely had time to gasp before his hand clamped around her throat, slamming her onto the obsidian ground. Her wings of light sputtered against the pressure as cracks webbed beneath her skull.“Denilson!” she choked, clawing at his wrist. His grip tightened, merciless, veins glowing black-gold as though molten chains pulsed inside him. His third eye burned, blank and hollow, staring down at her with an alien cruelty.The Prime stepped closer, its smile carved into the void like a scar.“Yes,” it whispered. “Strangle her. End her. Let me watch you break what keeps you weak.”Denilson’s golden eye flickered faintly. For a heartbeat, just a heartbeat, his fingers trembled.Jenna seized the opening. Her hands pressed against his chest again, pouring light into him, into the cracks that bled shadow.“Come back!” she cried. “I know you’re in there!”His scream tore out, half his, half the Prime’s. His grip loosened an inch, then tigh

  • Chapter One Hundred and Five – Chains of Eternity

    The chains pulled harder. His fingers spread, power gathering like black lightning in his palm. Jenna’s skin blistered in the waves of force radiating from him, yet she didn’t flinch.She took a step closer, Then another, And another.Every step sent blood streaming from her feet, staining the void.The titan behind him roared. Its voice wasn’t sound, it was law. It rattled through Denilson’s skull, through the very fabric of the void.“OBEY.”Chains erupted from the ground, latching onto Denilson’s arms, legs, spine. His body jerked forward like a puppet, his mouth spilling blood.“Jenna” His voice cracked, splintered, layered with something not his own. “I… can’t”“You can!” she screamed. Her wings of light shook, half-broken, feathers scattering like fireflies in the darkness. “You’ve always been stronger than them. You’re not theirs. You’re mine!”The words slammed into him harder than the chains. His golden eye flickered. His void eye snarled. The third eye, however, burned brigh
