07:48we'd been sleeping together in secret for six years
07:51footsteps followed close behind me

20:17powerful guardian
20:18spirits in existence
20:19kaleb the golden
20:20lion
20:20or kale
20:21the shadow dragon

20:26the dragon
20:27they said kale was
20:28a monster
20:28volatile
20:29violent
20:29and untamable
20:31but i looked the
20:31headmaster straight in
20:32the eye and gave my
20:33answer

20:36i chose
20:36kaleb

20:38golden boy
20:39headmaster sterling's
20:40pride and joy
20:40the night we bonded
20:41he was tender
20:42gentle
20:43but six months later
20:44he threw me into a
20:45dungeon and watched me
20:46scream as i was
20:47tortured to death
20:47it was kale who broke
20:48into that cell
20:49covered in blood
20:50and fueled by a rage
20:51that shook the heavens
20:52he held my cool body
20:53and let out a roar
20:54that tore the world
20:54apart
20:55he gave up his soul
20:56for my second chance
20:57this time
20:58i won't make the same
20:59mistake
21:00i walked out of the

21:04kaleb
21:05he was surrounded by
21:06his usual sycophants
21:08his practice staff
21:09slipped from his hand
21:10it clattered on the
21:11ground
21:11stopping just a few

23:39his hand slid
23:40down from her

23:41throat before
23:42sliding lower
23:42disappearing into
23:43her neckline to

23:45maya let out a
23:46soft performative
23:47moan making no

23:49the room erupted
23:50into laughter
23:50whistles and filthy
23:52insults flew at me
23:52like knives
23:53he was following the
23:54same sick script from
23:55my last life
23:56the public shaming
23:57the casual cruelty
23:58back then i was his
23:59favorite plaything

24:15word i just ripped my
24:16hand back and stared

24:18his mind
24:19still playing innocent
24:20we both know how
24:21desperate you are ivy

24:53they keep him in the
24:54deep sub levels because
24:55he's gone feral
24:56he can't even maintain a
24:57human form anymore
24:58the last cadet who
24:59tried to get near him
25:00was turned to cinders
25:01before he could even

25:16your business
25:17either of you
25:18maya's fake smile
25:19froze
25:20suddenly she switched

46:25she was raped by a low-ranking pig beastman
46:27and killed herself
46:28before dying
46:29she falsely accused me of rigging the draw
46:32adrian took me to my sister's grave
46:33and had the pig beastman rape me when i was already in labor
46:35whatever chloe suffered i will make you suffer again
46:40i cried and begged him to spare me
46:42but he just walked

46:44i was reborn
46:45in this life
46:46i gave up flipping a coin
46:47and also gave up adrian

47:07the pain of being violated by a low beastman
47:09still seemed fresh
47:13mom i've decided

47:15mom stared at me solemnly for a long time
47:17then finally nodded
47:18silently agreeing

48:05i went to the market to buy things for the borderlands
48:08and ran into adrian and chloe
48:09they were picking out a pink wedding dress
48:11in my past life
48:12i had also liked that dress
48:13but because it was expensive and rarely worn
48:15adrian refused
48:16but now watching him buy it without hesitation

49:13adrian frowned
49:14his face full of sympathy

49:16those three words were cold
49:17without a trace of emotion
49:18i held the bracelet on my wrist
49:20i wanted to say no
49:21but meeting adrian's eyes
49:22i didn't have the courage to refuse
49:24trembling
49:25i took off the bracelet
49:26and handed it to chloe
49:26a flash of cunning passed through her eyes
49:29just as she was about to touch it
49:30she let go
49:31my eyes widened
49:32i reached out to catch it
49:33but it was too late
49:34i watched the bracelet break into several pieces
49:36tears fell uncontrollably
49:39chloe gasped in fake shock
49:40covering her mouth
49:41her eyes full of grievance
49:44joy why would you do this

49:55she spoke loudly
49:56drawing pointing fingers from the crowd
49:57adrian walked toward me step by step
49:59his eyes dark and fierce
50:00he slowly crouched down
50:02his fingernails turning into translucent claws
50:04he pressed my hand hard onto the bone fraggings
50:06cut your little tricks
50:07no matter what you do
50:08i won't mark you

50:11adrian left with chloe in his arms
50:13i looked at my bloodied hands
50:14compared to the pain in my heart
50:16the pain in my hands was insignificant
50:17olivia i'm sorry

50:21when i got home the meal was already prepared
50:23only chloe remained
50:24smiling gently

50:29seeing the sly smile on chloe's lips
50:31my heart pounded
50:32don't look joy

50:37she pushed the pot toward me again
50:39my stomach turned
50:40and i couldn't stop dry heaving

50:47before you suffer in the countryside
50:49i bit my lip hard
50:50the taste of blood filled my mouth

51:44and rinsed her burns
51:47the world went silent
51:48after adrian tended to chloe's injuries
51:50he grabbed him throat
51:51his claws dug into the skin near my neck
51:53just an inch from my gland
51:55chloe tried to pull him away
51:56but adrian wouldn't let go
51:58the ringing and suffocation overwhelmed me
