Chapter 130 Darkness

• Ashlyn
• “No matter what you say, it doesn’t matter anymore.”
• Ashley’s voice was cold and unyielding, like ice pressed directly against my skin. Her words were sharp, slicing through the already-thin thread of hope I had been clinging to. I had humbled myself repeatedly, nearly begged her to stop whatever it was she was planning, but it was as if my voice couldn’t reach her anymore. Like I was yelling into a void that only echoed with silence and resentment.
