“You used to say you’d rather die in the army, Caden said, stunned.

“Well, not anymore,” Zev replied, lighting another cigarette and putting it in his mouth. “Five years in Solmaris, and I’ve had enough. Now, all I want is to start a family.

Caden fell silent, putting down his tools and removing his gloves. “I’m glad you’ve figured things out.”

He had tried to convince Zev countless times before, but nothing had ever worked.

Kelly was truly a remarkable woman–sometimes, one thing can humble another.

“Take some time and tattoo this for me,” Zev said, pointing to his right chest. The strong muscles there bore a jagged scar, which didn’t detract from the aesthetic; in fact, it made Zev seem even wilder and more untamed.

“Get the whole thing done?” Caden’s lips twitched. “You really aren’t going back, are you?”

“The scar looks ugly, and she’s too timid,” Zev muttered, staring up at the ceiling.

He felt like he had lost his mind, as everything reminded him of Kelly.

But Kelly was heartless; she didn’t care–not even the tiniest piece of him remained in her heart.

“Do you think people get what they deserve?” Zev asked suddenly. “Back then, I made someone love me and then rejected them. Is God punishing me for making me feel the same way?”

“Thea is a famous singer now,” Caden replied with a small laugh. “Have you ever been to her concert? Tickets are nearly impossible to get.”

Maybe it really was karma. When Thea was still a student, she had relentlessly pursued Zev, even confessing her feelings in front of the whole school. He had rejected her coldly.

Back then, Zev had been heartless, ignoring her even when she threatened to jump off a building. He hadn’t given her a chance.

Now, however, he was running after Kelly like a desperate fool.

“By the way,” Caden said quietly, “I heard that the suicide attempt left her with lasting effects; she won’t be able to have children in the future.”

Zev frowned, clearly unwilling to hear this.

He kicked Caden lightly, his irritation showing. “F*ck off, if you have nothing else to say.”

“Alright, I get it, I’m sorry,” Caden mumbled, regretting bringing it up. He knew better than to mention things that could stir up bad memories.

Because of Thea’s suicide attempt, Wade had nearly killed Zev. In the end, Zev had been forced to agree to date Thea for three months.

Zev shot up from the chair, rushing to the door to check if Eric had left.

But when he opened the door, he frowned in dissapointment.

Eric wasn’t gone; it was just a neighbor returning from work.

Zev glared broodingly at Kelly’s door, frustrated as he scratched his hair.

This woman was heartless.

“Well, Zev, looks like you’re getting a taste of your own medicine,” Caden commented with a grin, watching Zev with a mix of amusement and indifference. From being shocked at first to now simply accustomed to it, he had gotten used to it.

In his life, Caden had never admired anyone–Zev used to be number one, but now he was number two because Kelly had firmly claimed the top spot in Caden’s heart.

To fully tame someone like Zev, who was as cold–blooded as a wild beast, could only be done by someone extraordinary.

At Kelly’s apartment.

Kelly sat on the couch with Eric beside her.

He tried to hug her, but she pulled away.

“Kelly, do you remember when we first met?” Eric asked, a smile tugging at his lips. “It was a sunny day, and you were dragging your suitcase past me when someone bumped into you and sent you falling into the decorative river.”

Kelly cringed at the memory. It was embarrassing and almost funny to her now.

She had been a mess that day, struggling to climb out of the river, and it was Eric who squatted in front of her, offering his hand.

For someone like Kelly, who had always been a model student–obedient and proper–Eric’s appearance had felt like a beam of light, opening up a whole new world for her.

“I even walked you back to your dorm and lent you my jacket,” Eric continued with a smile.

Back then, everything had felt so perfect–clean, pure, and free of any single stray thoughts.

But alas, it was all in the past.

“Kelly, my love for you is irreplaceable, unmatched by anyone. That guy doesn’t understand what we have. He’s just a sc*undrel, nothing more,” Eric sneered, his disdain for Zev clear. He believed Zev was nothing but trash, a failure of society. “Someone like him should rot in prison. Just him standing next to you, breathing the same air–it’s an insult to you.”
