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.

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.

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 129: Desperate Times

Ana

Ana blinked at him confused.

Did he really just say that? 'He'll miss me? Was I just imagining it?' Just the thought of it made her heart leap with an unwelcome feeling of joy.

The simple statement echoed in her mind, prompting a wave of conflicting emotions to wash over her. Doubt, curiosity, and a glimmer of hope danced in her eyes. 

As the notion settled in, a flicker of joy ignited in Ana's heart. The prospect of being missed by him stirred a warmth within her, an unexpected emotion that caught her off guard. It was a feeling she hadn't anticipated, and certainly not one she was prepared to confront.

Yet, Ana was no stranger to disappointment and heartache. Life had taught her to be cautious with hope, to guard herself against the vulnerability that came with expectations. 

She couldn't afford to let her guard down, not when the past had left scars that still lingered.
