250 Apostles

Alice was put in a difficult position.

It was one case to perform the experiments herself but another for someone else to conduct it on her.

Could she trust her body over to someone else?

Could she go through what had haunted her throughout the 10 years?

Just the thought alone made Alice's heart pound against her chest in anxiousness. She trusts Allura and Kaden.

But that was also the case for her father and brothers. Yet in the end, she was chained up and collared against her will.

What if she were to lose consciousness halfway through the experiment just to find out that another collar has been placed against her neck?

Subconsciously, Alice raised her hand against her neck. She has grown accustomed to the lack of weight against her neck. But the phantom pain of the collar forever haunted her.

Even now, she could feel its sting, the biting cold metal pressing against her skin.
