Chapter 158: Trust Issues

Lianna jumped from the 10 story high apartment building without hesitation, leaving behind everything in that moment. She looked like a dove which had finally spread its wings after a lifetime in captivity, experiencing the joys of flying for the first time.

Jayce watched on with shock, taking in the beautiful sight. The sadness and yearning she was exhibiting earlier was nowhere to be found, replaced with acceptance of her fate.

His point of view changed once again, appearing on the streets below and watching Lianna freefall. As she was racing towards the ground, a sudden shockwave struck the city. The screech of breaking windows and structures being destroyed entered his ears, shocking him.

'What the hell was that?' he thought for a moment, yet Lianna's body hit the pavement hard just seconds later. The dull thud of her frail body hitting the ground was jarring, sending a jolt of discomfort through Jayce's body.
