Chapter 30: Goddess of The Night
Kael lay on his bed, staring at the empty ceiling above. He tried to sleep, but he couldn’t. Every time he closed his eyes, the memories kept replaying, and Kronos’ voice haunted him.
He was tired—exhausted.
As he stared at the blank wall above, questions started filling his mind.
Was the life he was living all planned? Was his destiny chosen by the people around him since day one?
It felt like everyone knew what was coming—everyone except him. Like he had been left in the dark while the world pulled the strings, leading him to this exact moment.
He felt like a puppet.
Controlled. Manipulated.
Empty. Unmotivated.
Then, memories of his father’s last words popped into his head.
"Whatever happens next, it’s your choice. Not mine. Not fate’s."
Could that be true? Did he really have a choice?
