Doomsday Revenge: Payback Time (Josie) novel Chapter 155

Chapter 155

Even as a Norm, he was the Base Commander’s son. In this place, he still had the status. He still had the glory.

But watching everyone else get stronger while he stayed the same? It stung. Deep down, Tate was starting to regret it.

His biggest mistake was not bottling that rain while it was falling. No one had thought to do it.

Back then, it felt like there was plenty of it. Why bother saving it, right?

By the time the storm passed, everyone realized they’d screwed up. If you changed your mind and wanted to roll the dice on getting a superpower? Too bad. You missed the boat

The rain was gone.

Every storm after that was just normal rain. Zero energy. Once that Power Rainfall hit the dirt or the river, the earth sucked the juice right out of it. It became worthless instantly.

Because Tate didn’t have a superpower, his voice in these meetings carried less weight every day.

People only gave him the time of day because of his old man. They were just humoring him.

When real shit went down, he wasn’t part of the decision–making process anymore. They just gave him a heads–up after the fact.

Tate knew it, and it ate at him. Lately, he’d been in a permanent shit mood.

When he felt like this, he needed a distraction.

Josie had just pissed him off, so he decided to go see June. He needed someone to talk to.

However, when June heard Tate wanted to see her, she just smirked. It was pure contempt.

She didn’t turn him down, but anyone with eyes could see she didn’t give a damn about him anymore.

June’s fingers gave a sharp, involuntary twitch.

She’d braced herself for this, but she hadn’t expected it to happen so fast.

Josie had messed up so many times. But just because she was powerful, everything was suddenly forgiven? Was that how it worked?

Might really was right in this new world.

“Look, she’s your sister regardless,” Tate said, looking like he’d just swallowed a fat fly. “Get back in her good graces. It might pay off for us later.”

June wasn’t taking it any better. Her voice was pure ice. “Make things right? How the hell am I supposed to do that? She hacked off my parents‘ legs and fed them to the dogs! There’s nothing left between us but a fight to the death.”

“So, who’s the one going to talk to Josie?”
