Villain Ch 1624. I Want to Ruin You
The Cursed Crypts.
They were back.
Right at the center of the throne room.
Still as massive and twistedly regal as ever. Stained-glass windows cracked with spiderweb fractures of red and black mana. Velvet curtains torn and scorched. The throne—Allen's throne—sat like a jagged god's idea of comfort. Crimson velvet, skeletal armrests, and a floor still drenched in old blood that refused to dry.
Nobody spoke at first.
Not even Allen.
Vivian exhaled first. "She just threw us. Like trash."
Zoe crossed her arms, rolling her shoulder. "Now I kinda understand what Sophia felt like when Allen flicked her off. Damn."
Larissa broke the tension with a lazy smirk. She walked up to Allen and wrapped her arms around him from the side, fingers skating along the hem of his coat. "Okay. Enough pouting. Let's forget her. We're back. I didn't mean to strand you there."
