Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose) novel Chapter 919

Zayne stared uneasily at the clock on the wall.

Josephine sat on the bed, her hands tied behind her back.

After the nth time of turning to look at the wall, Josephine could not help but tease him. "This is already the 99th time you’ve looked at the clock, Zayne. Do you want to hug it? Maybe even live the rest of your life with the clock?” 1

Zayne sat anxiously next to her.

"Josephine, what if I tell you that tonight's the night of Doomsday’s and Tourmaline Estate's battle? What would you-"

Josephine's eyes widened with fear at the implications of his words. She began to yell and scream, "Let me out. I need to go.”

Zayne was taken aback by her sudden outburst." Josephine, I just said maybe-”

Josephine began to struggle against the ties. "What if this maybe becomes a reality, Zayne? That means I’ll never get to see my family ever again after tonight. You’re taking away my last chance to say goodbye, Zayne! How could you be so merciless? You monster!"

Zayne felt his mind crack under the weight of Josephine's angry words.

"After tonight, Josephine, when morning comes tomorrow, I promise I'll untie you, okay? I promise.”

Right at that moment, a thunderous echo rang from outside the windows. As if a thunder strong enough to split the sky had sounded, its vibrations left no corner of Imperial Capital untouched.

Zayne and Josephine felt their eardrums about to burst.

The two shared a look.

Pulling open the curtains, Zayne looked toward the direction of Tourmaline Estate to find it engulfed by a dark fog.

Zayne muttered to himself, "Is it actually happening?"

Mustering up the force of 1,000 men, Josephine tried t o break free from the rope around her wrists.

Zayne turned to see her face contorting from the effort put in her hands and the breathtaking red in the corner of her eyes. She was being driven by the pain i n her heart.

"I hate you, Zayne Severe.

"I hate you."
