Rise of the Paragon Villain

In a world of forgotten memories and lethal secrets, Anastasia Moreau fights for survival. Awakening in a sinister laboratory with no recollection of her past, she escapes, only to be taken under the wing of a notorious killer who molds her into an assassin. Her goal: ascend the ranks within the elusive assassin organization known as RACQI, all while unraveling the secrets of her own lost memories. But Anastasia carries a crippling burden—PTSD that renders her incapable of taking a life. Her flaw threatens to shatter her dream until a final chance arises: an assignment to eliminate Valerian Vincenzo Vanguardia, the prime minister's formidable son. A task laced with complications, for Valerian possesses otherworldly abilities and a personality that clashes with everything Anastasia stands for. When a series of gruesome murders entangles them with Ambrose Riese, the youngest scion of the powerful Spes Lawfirm, the trio forms an uneasy alliance to confront a rising tide of chaos. In their struggle against deadly foes, including bloodthirsty zombies and alien creatures, Ana and Valerian's animosity transforms into an unexpected connection, sparking a slow-burning attraction that defies the odds. As darkness threatens to consume them, they must navigate treacherous paths, facing inner demons and forging unlikely alliances. The lines blur between heroes and villains as they battle not only external threats but also the shadows within themselves. Ana's journey becomes a thrilling odyssey of redemption, truth, and justice, leading her to question whether she can triumph over her past or risk becoming something far more sinister. The fate of a fractured world hangs in the balance, and Ana's choices will determine whether she rises as a hero or succumbs to the darkness. Prepare for a saga where alliances shift, allegiances blur, and the past casts a haunting shadow on an uncertain future.

Chapter 38: When Your Past Comes To Haunt You

•Above the Sanctuary Skies, The Leviathan•

Ana

"AAAAAAAAAAAH" Lily's scream rang through the air as dead body fell at their feet.

Lily managed to convince Mr. Cane to let her ride the airship as a "caregiver" to make sure Ambrose, Valerian, and Ana would stay out of trouble. Perhaps Mr. Cane was tired of looking after them because he said yes with no questions asked.

Unlike the bodies Ana saw last time, this one didn't have its blood sucked dry, it didn't have its organs gouged out, and it didn't look like it had any bite marks.

Instead, there was a single stab wound in its stomach. "A-ana..." Lily started to tremble beside her. They were just trying to look at the view of the bottom deck but what greeted them as they opened the door was a dead body of a man. Judging from his overalls uniform, it seemed like he was a worker from the engine room.

"H-help me-" The man croaked out before his eyelids fell as he drifted into an eternal sleep.
