CALISTA“We are here.” Maco's voice jolted me out of my daze, and I glanced briefly at him before turning to look outside.“Oh my.” My lips parted slightly at the sight ahead of me. A few steps away from the parking lot stood a towering skyscraper building, rotating slowly, with the words "Sparta Tech" imprinted at the top.I didn't expect it to be this magnificent in real life. I felt a hard gaze on me, and I turned my head to look at Maco, seeing the coldness in his eyes. But when he caught me looking, a warm smile spread on his face, the coldness disappearing instantly.Umm… What was that?“Uh, thank you for the ride.” I forced a smile as I grabbed the car door handle and opened the door. He didn't answer, and I took that as a cue to escape from there.I shut the door and turned to the building, my files pressed tightly against my chest with my left hand.“Let's do this. Fighting!” I nodded firmly in determination and began walking towards the building. My heels barely balanced as

MIKHAILShe was something.I turned the steering wheel as we drove away from the company. From the corner of my eye, I saw her glaring at me, still pissed about what had happened earlier.I could take her anger, her disgust, and most importantly, her hatred towards me. But I could never imagine seeing fear in her eyes when everything repeated itself again.I came to this realization when I led her into the bunker with bullets flying around us.She begged me to let her out of there, but all I did was make her watch me get shot.From time to time, I saw her staring at my chest, and at one point she tried touching the spot. It might look like she was being nasty and bratty, but I saw the worry in her eyes.Thankfully, I had asked Eren for treatment before she woke up. That was why I did everything to make sure no danger came her way.“So… where did you go dressed like this?” she asked, and I glanced briefly away from the road to her and saw the way her brow arched.I smiled and focused o

CALISTA“Cal.” Sera's voice trembled from the speaker. “I never knew he was the man you kept telling me about. If I had known he was your stepfather… I would have created a distance between us.”“You never sent a picture of how he looked. All you've talked about is your hatred towards him and how you never wanted to be in his life.” She let out a shaky breath and continued. “I will never do something that will destroy the precious bond we have together. So… please, I beg you to forgive me.”If it were other times, I would have done so.I stared at the phone on the dressing table in silence. After a while, I turned and walked to the wardrobe. Opening the doors, my eyes skimmed through the dresses, and I picked one, walking over to the bed and throwing it there.“Let's meet tonight,” I said, walking to the dressing table and pulling one of the drawers. Inside was a key. I grabbed it and closed the drawer. “This isn't something we can talk about over the phone.”“O-okay, where is the pla

CALISTA“M-Mihail?” My teeth clattered as I stared at the body far away from us. “Y-you hit her. She's not moving!”“H-hey, hey.” He ran over to me as my legs gave way beneath me. He caught me before I could hit the floor and covered my eyes with his hand, pressing my head to his chest. “S-she's not dead.”My body shook violently as coldness seeped into me. H-he hit her.Is she dead?Dread crawled through me at the thought of witnessing a murder scene. Why would he do that?“Let me go.” I lifted my hand to push him away, but it fell to the floor. I struggled to lift it again, but it fell limp beside me.Mikhail hugged me tightly, his heart beating heavily against my ear. “It's okay.” His muffled voice followed.My teeth sank into my flesh, and just as I was about to speak, a voice echoed from the parking lot.“Calista…huh? What happened here?” Footsteps approached us, and I didn't know where the strength came from, because one minute I was wrapped in Mikhail's embrace and the next, I

CALISTAI messed up.“We are here,” Mikhail’s voice snapped me out of my thoughts, and I shook my head, slapping my cheeks lightly. “Um… are you okay?”“No.” I snapped at him, unhooking the seatbelt. “I’ll only be fine if you cancel those 20 guards you assigned to watch over me.”Mikhail laughed softly at my words and didn’t say anything.Gritting my teeth, I pushed the car door open and got out, slamming it with all the strength I had.I knew he would visit the mechanic workshop, and that was my motive.I bent down to look at him through the car window and gave him the middle finger.“Bye bye. Enjoy spending some dollars on your car door.” I stared at the expression on his face in satisfaction before marching toward the company.I hurriedly climbed the short stairs before making it inside the entrance. My gaze swept around the people walking about, each one of them having their ID card hanging around their neck.I walked past the receptionist and got inside the elevator along with ma
