ACROS' POVNow that Arcilla's gone, A piece of my revenge has been served. I read a text on my phone from Scarlet. Saying that our next move is ready.

Aiden developed a fatherly bond with him since Aiden's father died years ago. "Would you guys w

CHAIN's POV "Chain, Just breathe." Mhorein has been trying to calm me down for the past few minutes. Im pretty sure Im having a panic attack thinking that Im going to be surrounded by these people again. "I cant, Mhorein." I said with my voice shaking. I gritted my teeth and glared at myself in the mirror. One, two, three more splashes of water on my face. I clenched my fist and hit it on the sink. "Chain Yuan Castranuevo." Such a stern tone but I felt my heart beat slowly going back go normal. Mhorein held both of my hands and looked me in the eye. Something about her made me feel like the fear and anger is slowly leaving my body.
