Damned

Anastasia kept her side of the deal and told Atticus everything that had happened during the one month he had been asleep.

After he fainted, the entire Sector 3 entered a state of absolute defense, with every single entry into the sector strictly monitored. No one, aside from the Ravensteins, was allowed into the estate, regardless of their importance.

The Ravensteins were a tier one family, and considering Atticus's importance, none of the other tier ones had any intention of earning their ire by insisting on visiting— not that Magnus would have allowed it anyway.

Not long after, word spread across the entire human domain and even further. The human apex, Atticus Ravenstein, had battled a paragon and forced him to flee.

The entire world froze.

It was a revelation as absurd as it was maddening. A 17 year old battling a paragon? It had to be false news.
