Republic of Looke
The Republic of Looke would have burned long ago without General Khan.I despise him deeply, but he is right! -President Kurot Shaldova I'm just an ordinary man who blacked out for twenty years while writing this script.
But I woke up again...because the cursed words inside this manuscript refused to die. I will win, I said coldly.
Win? What will you win, Zaid? If you die, what will be left?
I clenched my fist, my jaw tightening.
If I stop now, I am no longer General Khan. I am not the man you love, Zoyya. I am the fire that has burned for too long. And I will not go out until everything is reduced to ashes.
Zoyya sobbed, her voice trembling. Then what should I do? Should I wait for you until I die? Should I stand over your grave, wondering whether your revenge has been paid in full?
I closed my eyes for a moment, then looked at her sharply. If that's what happens, then remember one thing, Zoyya... I will not die as a victim. I will die as a legend... in your heart.
Zoyya's tears flowed even harder; she embraced me again, as if this were our last embrace. Then... never die. Don't... If you die, I will die.
My jaw tightened. I wiped her tears with my thumb. Held her longer. If you die, I will die.
She laughed-a laugh filled with sorrow. Then she raised her hand to her forehead.
Cole and I stepped toward the Dodge, but suddenly, something pulled me from behind. Not physical-not Zoyya's hand-but something heavier than her body: the feeling of loss beginning to fuse with my bones.
The first step felt like punishment.
The second step like a sentence.
The third, I was already standing before the Dodge's door.
I felt the cold grip of metal beneath my fingers. In the window glass, my reflection looked strange-like someone who had long been dead but was still being forced to walk. Then I felt her shadow; she was chasing me, running, wrapping her arms around my waist from behind, her head pressed against my back. I felt the scent of her breath, inhaled it deeply.
Medicine.
Herbs.
Cancer.
