Recap – Chapter 65: Ashes and Chains
On the burning rooftop, Lilith broke free of her chains, shattering her fire crown in an eruption that turned night into day. The hunter's obsession, the ex-husband's cruel claim, and Kazuki's unwavering devotion all clashed in a crucible of fire and shadow. Lilith screamed her defiance: no more crowns, no more chains. But the hunter refused to relent, the ex-husband only smiled darker, and Kazuki—bloodied but unbroken—threw himself back into the storm. The battle shifted from possession to survival, as the rooftop cracked beneath the weight of their desires.
The rooftop was unraveling. Every tile hissed underfoot, every wooden beam groaned like a dying animal, threatening to collapse into the flames consuming the mansion below. The night itself seemed torn open, the sky above a canvas of smoke and fire.
