The Perfect Bait
The tip of the scalpel felt cold right above Dimitri’s heartbeat. The blue light from Adrian’s eyes flickered, creating shadows that danced hideously on the rusted warehouse walls. Around them, total darkness enveloped everything, except for the thin circle of a blue aura emanating from the Architect’s body."Don’t... Adrian... I beg you..." Dimitri’s voice caught in his throat, barely more than a passing whisper of wind."Do you feel it, Dimitri? The coldness of this steel?" Adrian asked. His voice was flat, devoid of any hint of anger, which only made him sound a thousand times more terrifying. "How many times did you place this object on my body? Ten times? A hundred times?""I did it for Julian! For the future of Durnevra!""And now, this steel demands your own future."Adrian pressed the blade a little deeper. Dimitri’s expensive suit fabric tore. A drop of red blood seeped out, contrasting sharply with Adri
Hunt for Subject B-02
The VVIP elevator doors closed with a heavy metallic thud, as if locking the outside world away from the suffocating tension within. Dimitri Durnevra stood leaning against the elevator wall, his breath ragged, his eyes staring sharply at the masked figure before him."You... you're a devil," Dimitri hissed, his voice trembling."I am only a mirror, Dimitri," Adrian replied flatly from behind his black silk mask. "You see a devil because that is what you reflect."The floor indicator screen moved up rapidly. Dimitri's heartbeat could be heard amidst the silence of the luxurious elevator. Suddenly, Dimitri's phone vibrated violently. A call from his private assistant."Yes? What now?!" Dimitri shouted as he answered the phone."Sir... Mr. Julian..." the voice on the other end sounded panicked, mixed with chaotic background noise. "Mr. Julian collapsed in the middle of the shareholders' meeting!"Dimitri's eyes widened. "What?! How is that possible? Didn't he just get his new dose of med
Elena panicked
Hans pushed Elena out onto the mansion terrace, in front of dozens of reporters held back by a security cordon. Elena tried to cover her face with her hands, but the flashes still pierced through the gaps in her fingers."As of this moment, Elena is no longer part of the Durnevra family!" Dimitri shouted from the doorway, his voice loud enough to be caught by every outstretched microphone. "The company will not be held responsible for any of her future legal actions!"BAMM!The massive door was slammed shut. The sound of the electronic lock beeping sounded like a death sentence to Elena. She now stood outside, in the middle of a rainstorm that had begun to pour heavily, with nothing but the clothes on her back and a plastic bag containing a few pieces of fabric.The reporters surged forward as the mansion security began to retreat inside the gates."Mrs. Elena! Please give us a statement!""How does it feel to be kicked out by your own husband?!"Elena started to run. She pushed throu
You Want to kill yourself?
Elena Durnevra was still sitting on the cold bathroom floor, her fingers clawing at the slick ceramic tiles. Around her, sedatives were scattered like dirty snowflakes. The door remained locked tight. The screams of the mob outside the mansion gates sounded like the hum of a giant swarm of bees demanding blood.The mirror in front of her was still glowing, displaying a black silhouette wearing a silk mask. A pair of blue eyes behind the screen stared at her without blinking, without mercy, and most terrifyingly without recognition."Open the door! I beg you, open the door!" Elena screamed, her voice breaking and hoarse."Why do you want to go out, Mother?" Adrian’s voice came through the hidden speakers, so clear it was as if he were whispering right in her ear. "The world out there is celebrating your honesty. Didn't you always want to be the center of attention?""Stop it... I beg you, stop it..." Elena sobbed, hiding her face between her knees. "Why are you doing this to me? I'm yo
Organ Failure Within
"[ ESTIMATION: TOTAL ORGAN FAILURE WITHIN 48 HOURS. ]""Save that for later. I want him to see his father destroyed first."I stared out the window. The city sky was now completely dark, covered by storm clouds. Somewhere in Sector 9, I knew Subject B-01 might be waiting for me. The new power emerging there was a variable I could not yet calculate.My phone vibrated again. This time it wasn't Sarah, but an unknown number. I answered it."Hello?""You did that very neatly, Adrian," the voice on the other end was that of the red-eyed youth. "Our mother looked very pathetic being kicked out like that. But do you know what's missing?""I don't need your help," I answered coldly."You need me to do the dirty work your code can't. Dimitri is planning something big. He’s hired mercenaries to find your physical location. He no longer cares about the law.""Let him search. He will only find a trap.""What if I told you he already knows about Sister Mia? He knows she is the only weakness you ha
Level Nerve Damage
The silhouette of the red-eyed youth stood calmly on the balcony railing, as if gravity did not apply to him. A sharp night wind whipped the hem of his black suit, which was identical to mine. In the darkness of the apartment, silent due to the system blackout, his pair of red eyes glowed like embers thirsty for blood."Who are you?" I asked. My voice did not tremble. The absence of empathy within me made fear a foreign concept."Me?" The youth laughed. His voice was a mirror of my own, yet it possessed a wilder tone. "I am Subject B-01. I am the failure you found inside that zinc coffin, Adrian. Or more accurately, I am the remnants of a soul that refuses to be extinguished.""Altar does not detect your existence as human," I said coldly. "You are an anomaly.""And you are a puppet who is far too obedient," he countered, leaping down from the balcony railing and landing silently on my office floor. He walked closer, staring at my shattered monitors. "You spend too much time playing w
