He’d lost a lot of weight, dark circles under his eyes.
“Sera, I finally found you!”
Laica’s eyes were bloodshot, his voice trembling.
“Sera, I fucked up. Please, please… just come back with me.”
He reached out to embrace me, but I stepped back.
“Sera, I just… I just lost my mind for a moment. All men make this kind of mistake.”
“Tomorrow is our ten year anniversary. Can you really bear to throw away everything we had?”
He pulled out a ring, kneeling on the ground, trying to grab my hand.
I felt nothing but disgust.
Luca took my silence as softening, attempting to slide the ring onto my finger when suddenly Ash appeared from nowhere and snatched it away.
“Luca, why can’t you forget this bitch? This was supposed to be my engagement ring/
“Is your human side affecting you again?”
“Don’t worry, I’ll find a way to kill that human personality and bring Lynx back to me.”
Ash cupped Luca’s face, her voice fierce with determination.
I watched this scene coldly, unable to suppress a mocking laugh.
“What’s wrong, Luca? Haven’t you told her the truth yet?”
“What truth?”
Ash positioned herself protectively in front of Luca, eyeing me suspiciously.

“I was just some sex toy for you?! Luca, tell me she’s lying!”
Ash stood frozen in place, refusing to believe it, desperately seeking one last shred of hope from Luca.
“Yes. I never loved you. You were just a good pussy to me, nothing more.”

So he used the fake disorder as an excuse to hurt me repeatedly, testing the depth of my love for him.
I understood what Luca couldn’t finish saying, and found it pathetically absurd.
I wiped the tears from my eyes and glared at him with hatred.
“Luca, you’re a piece of shit. You disgust me.”
I lifted the fabric covering my prosthetics, my voice dripping with venom.
“Luca, what fucking right do you have to ask for my forgiveness?”
Looking at those artificial legs, Luca’s lips trembled. He couldn’t say a word, didn’t even dare reach out to touch them.
“Fuck off and die. I hope I never see your pathetic face again.”
