Chapter 72 Did With A Smile

• Dante's POV.
• Everything was crashing down around me.
• As I watched Elena walk toward the cliff, it felt like the world had narrowed into a single, unbearable moment. My breath caught in my chest, like something was sitting on top of me, heavy and unrelenting. I wanted to scream, to drag her back, to make it all stop—but I didn't move. I couldn't. My mind was split in two, torn between fury, fear, and something deeper I couldn't even name.
