Geneva Cathedral – Final Countdown: 00:04:59
The air inside the cathedral was suffocating.
The timer's red digits glowed ominously against the ancient stone walls, each second a brutal reminder that time was running out.
Selina stood at the threshold of the altar, her entire body trembling as she stared at her son, strapped to a deadly device, his small chest rising and falling in panicked gasps.
Tears welled up in her eyes, but her hands were steady as she reached for the concealed blade at her thigh.
How many times had she faced death? How many times had she clawed her way back from the edge? But this… this was the ultimate test. Was she strong enough to sacrifice it all, even if it meant losing the one thing she fought so hard to protect?
Her heart cracked, but her resolve never wavered.
生动比喻Her love felt like a dam breaking against a tidal wave of despair, flooding her entire being with agony and desperate determination.
From the shadows, the Silent King emerged.
X.
Unmasked.
And to Selina's horror—it was the face she had long buried in the deepest parts of her memory.
Her childhood protector. The boy she once saved… now the man threatening to take everything from her.
"You promised me forever, Selina." His voice was low, deadly calm. "But you forgot. Broken promises have a price."
Selina's lips parted, her hands shaking as she took a step closer.
"Don't do this… please."
X tilted his head, the timer ticking louder with every second.
She had one shot. One final move. And if she missed… everything would end in blood and regret.
X's finger hovered over the detonator.
Selina lunged.
A gunshot rang through the hollow cathedral.
The screen went black.
