The underground chamber was unlike anything Anastasia had ever seen. Cold stone walls stretched around them, casting shadows that seemed to shift and sway with every flicker of the torches. The air was thick with the scent of damp earth, secrets buried long ago. This was the heart of Moretti’s empire, where his corruption had festered, where his darkest deeds had taken root. And now, it was here that their final confrontation would take place.
Anastasia stood beside Maximilian, their hands intertwined, their bond stronger than ever. The battle above had left its mark on them both—cuts, bruises, and exhaustion hung heavy on their bodies—but they had survived. Side by side, they had fought through the chaos, the betrayals, and now they were ready to face whatever came next. This wasn’t just about revenge or justice anymore; it was about breaking free from the darkness that had loomed over them for so long.
