Chapter 138: Unexpected Alliance
Sarah POV
The moment my human memories fully returned, I lunged at Viktor before anyone could stop me. My fist connected with his shocked face, sending him stumbling backward.
"That’s for what you did to my little brother!" I screamed, hitting him again. "Tommy was only eight years old!"
Viktor wiped blood from his lip, looking more shocked than hurt. "You remember?"
"I remember everything." Rage burned through me like fire. "I remember you tearing open the physical barrier above our town. I remember the void creatures pouring through. I remember watching my family get tainted one by one because you wanted to test your new power!"
The other warped Void Walkers around us shifted nervously. For the first time since coming, they looked uncertain instead of confident.
"Sarah," Lily said softly, "we need to focus on stopping the Moon Goddess."
"She’s not the real enemy," I said, never taking my eyes off Viktor. "At least, not the only one. These Original Vampires opened the first tears between worlds. Everything that’s happening now started with them."
Elena stepped forward, her face cold as ice. "We were following orders. The Moon Goddess showed us visions of a perfect world where—"
"Where everyone who disagreed with you was dead or corrupted," I interrupted. "I lived through your ’perfect world,’ remember? I was one of your monsters for three years."
The memories hurt to think about. Three years of being trapped inside my own body while something else directed my actions. Three years of watching myself hurt harmless people and being unable to stop it.
