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 65: The Insignia

•Nexus City, 5th Ward•

Ana

Evelyn stared at her in horror.

"What does that symbol mean?" Ana asked while gesturing to the insignia with two lions at the center of the table.

Evelyn shook her head. "I have never seen that symbol before."

"Then, what do you see? What does it mean? How can you see the future? Where did you get those powers?" Ana continued. There were so many things she wanted to know and yet instead of answers, she was uncovering more questions.

"I lived my entire life in the 5th Ward. When I was your age, I got tired of it. I wanted to know what was beyond the walls." Evelyn whispered, her voice thick with nostalgia

"I got tired of that life. I always asked my parents why we had to live a life that was inferior to those in the capital. Why are we suffering while those in the inner wards could live in luxury?" She continued.
