I hesitated between laughter and sorrow as Alex and I found ourselves exiled from the monastery. The incident in one of its rooms had clearly crossed a line. Even though Alex was one of the largest donors to the monastery and was called brother by the staff, having sex on the monastery grounds was really considered blasphemy by them.

"I'm relieved you didn't shave your head," I said, wrapping my arms around Alex affectionately.

"I was close to it, Aurora. If you'd arrived even a day later, today would've been my initiation, and I'd be bald," Alex replied with a chuckle.

Returning to the orphanage to visit Mrs. Collins, we were greeted by the familiar walls, infused with the lingering scent of detergent from the hanging clothes, and the joyful laughter of the children.

"Mother," Alex began, sitting beside her. "This is Aurora."

"Yes, my son, I remember her. She worked here voluntarily for four months. But tell me, have you chosen her as your partner?" Mrs. Collins asked, her eyes twink

    Alex's face turned pale as he sank into the garden chair, his voice barely above a whisper. "Let me think about it for a moment. This is still a shocking revelation to me."I unfolded the cloth with trembling hands, revealing the message written in blood."Alexander, we love you. When you find your mate, you're meant to be the Alpha king. Only with the Moon Goddess's blessing can you save us, your people. You'll always be our Alpha. Love, Mom."The weight of his destiny seemed to hang in the air, a tangible presence that Alex couldn't simply dismiss. This was his sole link to his family, a calling to become the alpha king."Aurora," Alex finally spoke, his smile forced and brittle. "I think I'll pass on it." His voice wavered as he continued, "My parents might have been like yours – ambitious, perhaps even cruel. Think about it, they abandoned me at an orphanage. I don't need to be the alpha king. All I yearn for is a simple life in the village. With you."I moved to the chair beside

    He walked to the other side of the door and placed his hand on a fingerprint scanner, then spoke a voice password. Instantly, the mansion sprang to life.

    "Your mother isn't actually thinking she can eliminate Nathan and Daniella, right?" Alex's concern echoed through the study room as he watched my mother disappear into Nathan and Daniella's room. The absence of CCTV left us blind to her actions within. His voice, tinged with anxiety, broke the silence.I felt a knot of worry tighten in my stomach. "Why?" I managed to ask.He glanced at me, his eyes reflecting the gravity of the situation. "Today marks two months, since the Moon Goddess's battle began. There's no way they haven't prepared for an assassination attempt," he explained, his voice low.I swallowed hard, a sense of dread washing over me. "For real? What's going to happen to my mom?"Alex let out a heavy sigh, the weight of his thoughts apparent. "In my opinion, she may fail to kill Nathan and Daniella. But with Linda here, she might escape unscathed or maybe some miracle could happen, still she will survive."I tried to muster a smile, seeking solace in his presence. "Then I

    Alex and I stood atop the mansion, our training session in full swing. He stripped down to his shorts, revealing a physique sculpted with muscles and adorned with numerous bullet wounds - a testament to his resilience. I couldn't help but marvel at Alex's strength, watching him effortlessly perform one-handed push-ups, his count effortlessly surpassing a hundred.Despite being endowed with werewolf power, Alex's physical prowess was undeniably impressive. Dressed in my sports bra, I joined him in the rigorous workout, our bodies glistening with sweat under the relentless sun. It felt surreal, considering our past - simple conversations about books and teaching, now replaced by this intense preparation to conquer the world. I took a moment to gaze out at the sea from our elevated vantage point, musing softly, "Yes, it truly feels like a dream."Alex, continuing his one-armed push-ups, broke the silence. “I have sent a letter proposing honorable battle to Prince Nicholas and Nadine. It'

    Bianca gazed at Alex, her eyes shimmering with unshed tears. "You jerk, how could you still be alive?" she exclaimed, her voice a mix of disbelief and relief.Alex replied with a light-hearted jest, "Because I am still missing you," attempting to diffuse the tension with humor.Bianca's expression softened, yet her eyes remained tearful. "But I already have a mate now," she confessed, her voice trembling slightly.Alex, undeterred, offered a playful challenge. "Don’t worry, I will beat your mate tonight. You could hug me now, if you want," he said, spreading his arms wide in a welcoming gesture.Overcome with emotion, Bianca embraced him, her tears flowing freely. "I am really happy you are still alive," she sobbed into his shoulder.Edward, witnessing this reunion, turned to me with a look of determination. "Can I beat that asshole who's hugging my mate?" he asked, his eyes burning with a mix of jealousy and protectiveness.I laughed, understanding his sentiment. "Yes, that's the pur

    Alex exhaled deeply, his chest heaving with the weight of his words. With a voice tinged with desperation and fervor, he implored, "Oh, Dear God, grant me the entirety of Your Might, the strength I need for this final onslaught. A thousand moons fang attack, fueled by 500 million dollars."The people started to yell, "Great attack!"Edward, his expression morphing into a wry smile, responded with admiration and a hint of resignation. "Your prowess is truly unparalleled. This alpha can no longer withstand your formidable attack. I have coughed up blood, my innards are shattered. You are the victor, my Alpha King."The crowd erupted into a frenzy of shouts, their voices intertwining in a loud chorus, "Alex! Edward! Alex! Edward!" Their excitement was palpable, each shout vibrating with energy."This is truly a spectacular duel," one audience member remarked, their voice laced with awe. "I doubt I could withstand such an attack. I would have faltered at the mere 100 million mark.""Alpha

    In the midst of the chaos, I couldn't help but think, 'This is insane.' Never in my wildest dreams had I imagined finding myself in such a harrowing situation.The gunfire persisted relentlessly, bullets penetrating the back door and shattering the front glass. Alex lay prone on the bed, his breaths shallow, his body succumbing to unconsciousness as the poison and medicine took its toll.Armed with nothing but my wits and the ambulance, my only option was to drive as fast as possible. Under the cloak of night, I pushed the vehicle to its limits, relying on my werewolf-enhanced reflexes to navigate each turn. The ambulance careened wildly, teetering on the edge of control as it swerved from one side of the road to the other, its wheels occasionally lifting off the asphalt.Inside, the contents of the ambulance were tossed about, sliding from side to side with each abrupt movement of the vehicle. For ten adrenaline-fueled minutes, I struggled to maintain control and distance from our pu

    On the study room, perched in the same spot where Alex had nestled just yesterday, I still could felt his warmth envelop me, his thigh a comforting presence beneath my own. His arms encircled me in a protective embrace, a surreal sensation washing over me. And now he was not here.How could such misfortune befall him, a man of such kindness? My tears were leaking uncontrollably.Ten minutes ago, I gazed upon him, lying tranquil under the high-tech sleeping capsule, a marvel of modern technology designed to decelerate bodily functions. He appeared to be in a peaceful slumber, and in my heart, I clung to the belief that he was merely sleeping.The pressing dilemma now lay in acquiring the antidote from Nadine before a month. And for that, I needed Linda. I was looking at the six big screen.A tumultuous storm of emotions — anger, panic, fear — clamored for recognition within me.

    I looked at the baby he was so cute, but I know I had to act. I dressed him in new clothes and wrote the prophecy about his future role in saving the world on the cloth. He was destined to return here, to build a dome for humanity and fulfill his fate—perhaps he had already completed his mission. I donned the wrist device and fashioned a smaller one for the baby, so we could travel through time together. But first, I had to ensure that the future would be free of problems. The spheres were set to manage the environment, programmed to halt their work when CO2 levels reached 0.04%. As for who would rule in the future, I chose not to decide. The people must learn to govern themselves; some were already training to use the spheres. I couldn't always be their deity; they needed to become self-sufficient. With the baby in tow, I prepared to leave this era, knowing I would never return; it wasn't my place. Together, we activated the high-frequency drive, propelling us into the fourth

    On the night the baby was born, the parents was sleeping soundly, unaware of the sphere descended to take a sample of the newborn's blood.It was painless. And the sphere quickly checked the DNA.As the results flashed on the screen, it not fit my DNA. But I saw a connection between myself and this baby—a sibling, perhaps.I didn’t now if I have messed up with the future or I still unborn in this time.Two years later, the woman I believed to be my mother was expecting again, this time a daughter. It was clear then that the baby wasn’t me.All I can do was waiting.In the five years since I came here, we constructed 76,910 domes worldwide, sheltering 500 million survivors from the once 8 billion-strong human population.The disparity was stark: some domes teemed with life, while others stood empty, their ecosystems meticulously engineered and automated, home only to selected wildlife.The advent of virtual exploration allowed people to survey these domes remotely, relocating if they f

    "Show me where my parents are," I commanded the sphere with excitement. After long years, I was about to meet my long-lost parents.The sphere generated a screen for me to view, revealing a young man and woman, perhaps around 20 years old, entering the Eden Dome for the first time. They appeared bewildered and lost, their eyes wide with a mix of fear and wonder."Are you sure they are my parents?" I questioned, my brow furrowed in doubt. They were even younger than me. It felt odd, almost as if I should call them little brother and sister instead of parents."Yes, Master," the sphere responded affirmatively. "Your genetic DNA matches theirs perfectly.""But," I hesitated, scrutinizing the image, my heart pounding with a strange apprehension. "Send one sphere to them; I need to ask them something."The distance seemed vast, with our dome situated half a world away, creating a chasm between us."As you wish, Master."A sphere glided toward the man and woman in the distant dome.

    "Guys, please stop it," I implored, the urgency clear in my voice. "There will be no use."The spheres that had been hovering alongside each of the gang’s leaders and their members suddenly flared into a menacing red hue. "The host is showing harmful behavior. The security protocol will be launched," it announced in a dispassionate tone.Without warning, the spheres emitted a piercing frequency that targeted all guns, weapons, and harmful items. In moments, they disintegrated into fine atom dust, which the sphere then collected and whisked away, presumably to be repurposed as building material.The bear leader's and all gang’s members face registered shock, then eyes wide with disbelief and fear."In Eden, when you make a mistake, there are two options for you to choose from," I continued, my voice steady. "One, we simply expel you back to where you came from. Or, alternatively, you can e

    In the dimly lit underground city, I had just finished selling my last can of food. Eagerly, I was about to purchase more slaves, when the bear gang leader approached me with his smelly body odour.Water was precious here; people wash their body once a year.His burly frame cast a long shadow as he strode towards me, flanked by two other gang’s leaders, their footsteps echoing in the small alley.“Alex, the fish seller,” he growled, his voice deep and menacing.“That’s me!” I responded with a cheerful smile.“We want you to take us to the fish factory. Can you, do it?” His eyes, sharp and probing, seemed to pierce through me, daring me to decline.“Sure,” I replied happily. “The owner already mentioned he'd be thrilled to have you all there. He said there’s plenty of food.”“Really?” he asked, scepticism written all over his rugged face.“Yes, take as many people as you can,” I urged, sensing their disbelief.The three of them exchanged looks of shock and disbelief. “Whatever,” one of

    I stood in my house, gazing at the sprawling expanse of New York City below, dreaming of transforming it into a colossal dome.However, the architectural limitations soon became apparent, leading to a revised plan of constructing a network of smaller domes, each the size of a soccer field, interconnected like a honeycomb.This design was not only efficient but also practical in case of emergencies, such as shattered glass or structural failures. It could be easily detached and repaired without causing trouble to the entire dome.As the temperature inside the dome needed to be controlled for the plants and for the humans.The first group of eighty slaves, were settled in one of the completed domes. For the time being, they shared a common sleeping area, heavily medicated to aid their recovery and adjustment to their new environment.Each person was assigned a spherical device designed to help them acclimate to this "new Eden."At the night before, I was guiding them out of the undergro

    ‘No, I cannot move now before I know everything about them. I may wrongly save people and cause trouble. I need to study them more,’ I thought, my mind racing with caution.“Spheres 567, stay on the underground and record everything about their activities,” I commanded, letting them delve into the shadows.Finding one of the human underground hubs, I dispatched another hundred spheres to scout the area. Because humans may concentrate in one locale, and my hunch was spot on.Humans were crafting an underground city, intertwining with the natural caves and beginning to carve out a vast space within the earth's embrace.Through the spherical eyes, I glimpsed a colossal chamber that sparked memories of the largest underground city ever discovered, Derinkuyu in Cappadocia, Turkey, capable of sheltering around 20,000 people along with their livestock and food stores.But the population here seemed to surpass 80,000, with the capacity to house over 200,000. As I used the spheres to map the e

    One had to remember where he was from. I had completed my research to elevate human frequency to a higher dimension, allowing passage through space and time. This ambition was fueled by my desire to meet my parents in the future.In my study room, I carefully handled the clothes that had swaddled me as a baby, left at the orphanage door. The fabric held the mystery of my origins. Despite using the gate to the past to uncover who had placed me at the orphanage, no one appeared. The clothes and I simply materialized out of nowhere.I placed the garment on the scanning blueprint machine, aiming to record every atom and deduce the era it hailed from. This information was pivotal for my journey to that specific time.The smart device strapped to my wrist was brimming with data necessary for the impending future war. In moments, the year 2112 flashed on its screen. Was it truly 80 years into the future?Activating the smart device on my left arm, my body began to feel ethereal, as the body

    AlexI brought back a child, a five-year-old girl, to my mansion when I encountered Nadine. "Can you take care of this child as you do our own?" I asked tentatively."Who is she?" Nadine inquired, her eyes narrowing slightly in confusion and curiosity.I hesitated, grappling with the truth. The thought of Nadine possibly becoming a cruel stepmother to Aurora's daughter haunted me. But the weight of the secret was too heavy. As she could find the answer by herself anytime she wants."She is Aurora's daughter," I confessed. "I killed Nicholas, and soon Aurora will vanish from this world. This child is utterly alone, bearing no fault in these tragic events.""And her name?" Nadine pressed, her demeanour softening as she gently took the child into her arms, cradling her with maternal warmth.Shaking my head, I replied, "Aurora refused to name her. She's been living like a shadow among the maids, an unwanted soul.""How heartless can one be!" Nadine exclaimed, her face contorting in anger
