Tragic fall
The guards ran around, confused. Panic was written across every face. The rope was getting weaker, fraying strand by strand.At the moment, only a tiny strand was still holding it up, creaking with every shift.“Get inflatable mattresses to cushion their fall!” A reporter shouted, voice cracking over the noise. The head of security who was running around with his men wheezed. Sweat poured down his temples. It totally escaped his mind. In the chaos he had forgotten the most basic protocol.The chaos had woken the previously sleeping guards, sending them into a frenzy. They stumbled out of the lodge half-dressed, eyes still bleary.“That's right. Mattresses.” He turned to the guards behind him, jabbing a finger toward the building. “Bring out the mattresses from the security lodge, hurry. Now.”Siren sounds blared in the distance, cutting through the commotion. Wails of red and blue flashing against the glass walls. “Who called the police?” Someone muttered, turning around to check th
Women are scary
The moment the others heard the scream, every head instinctively snapped toward the two figures suspended above the entrance.The reporters reacted even faster.Camera shutters erupted in rapid succession as they hurriedly changed positions, searching for the best angles. If the woman truly was the president of Crescent Waves, this story had just transformed from an unusual incident into a headline capable of dominating every major news outlet.Being publicly disgraced in front of the very company where she had spent more than four years building her reputation and career...That alone was enough to keep the internet talking for weeks.Nancy immediately raised both hands to shield her face, panic and resentment twisting together inside her chest until she could barely breathe. Somewhere amidst the rising commotion, she thought she heard that familiar childish voice again—"Aiya!"The imagined cry sent a violent shiver racing down her spine.A strangled scream escaped her lips as she t
Clothed with shame
CRESCENT WAVES HEADQUARTERS, 7 A.MTwo people were hanging from the front entrance of the Crescent Waves headquarters. One man and a woman. The man was bleeding all over, one finger missing, navy blue trousers soaked with blood. His female companion was even worse off, her hair was messed up, soaked in something smelly and slimy. On her body, a placard was hanging visibly. [I'm a lying slut who killed my husband after stealing his properties.]On the man, another placard was hanging. [I'm an evil gigolo who scams others for money. I also kill investors after taking their money. I'm not human.]The first person who came to work was a cleaner. She'd forgotten her purse the previous day at the cubicle and rushed over in the morning to take it away before other people could arrive and tamper with it. As for the guards, some were still sleeping soundly in the lobby, while others had bathed in the detached unit Xavier assigned to guards, in order to give them a place to rest as they wor
They're not humans
The excuse sat in the room like an unpleasant fart from a titan. Trinity's face was earnest, like she genuinely believed every word she said. “Not humans.” Ryan tasted the words on his tongue, like a man biting lead. He shrugged and began to pack the needles and equipment. Trinity batted her lashes, silently praying Xavier would accept her excuse. He hated disobedience a lot, and didn't joke with a soldier’s moral code. However, Trinity had long discovered that not everyone deserved the normal kind of justice. Only her own method was perfect. When it comes to extracting confessions and making people beg for death, no one could be better than her. Except for that one person trapped at the wastelands. “Not humans, huh?” Xavier chuckled, eyes dark. “Trinity, go pick a basket of scalding nether flowers from Myrias Valley. If you're not back by morning, I will truly give you something to cry for.”Ryan’s lips twitched. Scalding nether flowers were dangerous poisonous herbs. A little co
He's awake
Serenity Hills, Ravencrest BaseSoldiers stood at attention along every inch of the corridor leading toward the heavily secured research laboratory where Xavier was currently recovering. Their backs were ramrod straight, boots planted firmly against the polished floor, expressions carved from stone. The atmosphere was unnaturally quiet. Even the occasional crackle of communication devices seemed subdued, as though the entire building instinctively understood the importance of the man resting beyond those reinforced doors.Inside the laboratory, the air carried the rich, earthy fragrance of medicinal herbs intertwined with the faint scent of essential oils. Strange glass instruments, medical monitors, and traditional bronze incense burners occupied the same room, creating an unusual harmony between modern science and ancient healing arts.Ryan stood beside Xavier's bed in his white coat, silently studying the handwritten sheet resting atop the blanket. Every line on the paper contained
Abort Mission
At another part of Erindor Trinity stared down at the unconscious Jason, hatred and disgust curdling in her chest until it felt like acid. The man who dared to poison her brother. The parasite who drank from Xavier’s blood for four years and still wanted more. She grabbed him by the collar like he weighed nothing and teleported. The world folded. The cold wind against his face woke him up with a violent gasp. The first thing he saw was the black water beneath him, waves crashing and foaming like teeth. His face turned white, horror consuming him whole. “No! Oooh!” “Aiya!” Trinity sneered, and let go. His screams tore through the night as he plummeted. A mighty splash buried him. “Trash like you dared to hurt my master? I will have to remind you where the trash belongs.” The sea was icy. It hit his lungs and stole his breath. Salt water rushed into his mouth, his nose burned. Despite being a good swimmer, his limbs felt like lead. They just wouldn’t cooperate. It could be fea
