Chapter: Episode 123The next morning I stood next to Aljona again on the field and trained to exhaustion.I needed it, couldn't stop exhausting all of my energy."Enough for today, Riley," she said finally, taking a deep breath."I admire your ambition, but you're still plowing your way to death."

Chapter: Episode 122After dinner we went back to the tent and I suppressed a groan when I saw Logan sitting in front of the entrance."Hello, young man," my father greeted him kindly and looked at me.“Target practice starts in half an hour.Since Logan already took part yesterday, he can show you the way there.I'll clear it up with Lex in the meantime.

Chapter: Episode 121"Stop it," I hissed and roughly wiped my eyes, which were tingling dangerously again and heralding new tears.“He's not the man you thought he was.Get over it at last! "But I couldn't and got another crying fit."You are really pathetic," I muttered to myself, letting the warm water wash away my tears.“In love with the murderer of your mother and sister.Can you sink any deeper?

Chapter: Episode 120The next morning my father brought me something to eat, but I only got a few bites and then crawled back into bed.I spent the next few hours coping with the overwhelming emotions that held me tight.Part of me absolutely refused to accept that One had committed the atrocities he was accused of.And this part was feverishly looking for an explanation that would exonerate him.Maybe he had been forced?Maybe he had no other choice?But the rational part of me made it clear t

Chapter: Episode 119I came to, blinking.Muffled voices reached my ears.I turned my head to the side and saw two blurry figures.Groaning, I closed my eyes very tightly again and opened them again until my vision finally became clearer.And then my eyes caught the spirit again.So I hadn't just dreamed it, he actually appeared.With a startled sound I straightened up and backed away.Lex and the man who couldn't possibly be the one my eyes were trying to fool me looked at me.

Chapter: Episode 118"If you anticipated the attack, you must also know who was responsible," I said, pressing my lips together.I was afraid of his answer while hoping he wouldn't repeat what Logan's uncle had revealed to me."Yes, I know that," Lex confirmed the next moment.“And my friend Rachat already told you, Riley.They were hunters.They carried out the orders of the Empire government.At that time, many settlements were wiped out by the hunters.There were few survivors.&nb

Chapter: Ch. 33A shake of my shoulder brought me out of deep sleep.I stood up, blinking, and looked into One's face."Come on, get dressed," he said softly."We'll be signing the papers in a moment.""Papers?" When I got what he meant, my mouth formed a

Chapter: Ch. 32Every time a noise came from somewhere outside the cell, I'd lift my head and look around hopefully - only to find that no one came to hear me or to get me out of the cramped space.In time, I finally gave up and came to terms with the fact that soon no one would come to help me.I was all the more surprised when suddenly someone said my name.I looked to the side and was flooded with such relief that tears welled up in my eyes.

Chapter: Ch. 31The dining room, into which One and I were later shown, was huge and impressive, like all other rooms in the One house.I looked around in amazement and took in all the impressions.I did this very focused in order to distract myself from my nervousness.To my relief, One's parents hadn't been in the room yet, but I knew, of course, that they would appear any minute.And when the time came, I automatically tensed.Ones mother looked very elegant, like every encounter before: the

Chapter: Ch. 30I was woken up by One when he eventually came back and lay behind me."Go back to sleep," he whispered in my ear when he noticed I woke up."Mh-mh." I turned around and ran my lips over his chin, which finally felt a bit scratchy and therefore

Chapter: Ch. 29I felt dizzy when One let go of me so I dug my fingers into the fabric of his shirt to keep holding on to him.Then I looked up at his face.He looked different, his cheeks clean-shaven, his hair neatly combed back from his face.Neat and tidy.I immediately missed the bold and rough that had always surrounded him."You shouldn't have come here," he said the next moment, which gave me a painful stitch in the chest.His kiss had made it clear to me that he missed me as much

Chapter: Ch. 28Only on closer inspection did I realize that I was wrong.Hope and joy fizzled out when I noticed that the man who spoke to Arron wasn't quite as tall as One.His hair was also a little darker, his shoulders less broad.He wasn't wearing Hunter clothes either, but a shirt and black trousers made of slightly shiny fabric.Confused about this new visitor, it took me a few more minutes to see that a dozen armed men were standing nearby, keeping an eye on the area.When Arron's gaze
