My Ten Wives and Ten Rings in the Apocalypse



The train chugged along the tracks, a long, sleek body of steel and metal, slicing through the heavy downpour like a knife through butter. The raindrops pelted against the windows, creating a deafening sound that drowned out the hum of the engine. The train was a blur of colors in the bleak, cold, and desolate city, the only sign of life in the otherwise barren landscape.

The train pulled away, gathering speed once again, leaving the figure behind.

The city faded into a blur of monochrome colors, and the train hurtled through the rain, its headlights illuminating the darkness.

Inside the carriage, the passengers settled back into their seats, lost in their own thoughts, as the rhythmic sound of the train's movement filled the air.

As the journey continued, the train passed through abandoned factories and warehouses, their broken windows and rusted roofs barely visible in the dim light.

The rain pounded relentlessly against the train, creating a curtain of water that obscured everything outside. The cold, damp air seeped inside the carriage, causing a few shivers and coughs.

Moreover, despite the gloomy weather, there was a certain beauty to the scene. The train seemed to be battling against the elements, pushing through the rain, and forging ahead, toward its destination.

In addition, the sound of the rain, the chugging of the engine, and the rhythmic swaying of the carriage created a hypnotic effect, lulling the passengers into a sense of calm.

However, the sense of calm ceased to reach the conference room as the room was filled with a sense of dread and everyone lowered their head unable to look at the chief in command.

Standing at the corner of the room was a silhouette, haggard with bloodshot eyes, bruised face, and bandages around his waist.

In addition, he gnashed his teeth, trying to stop his trembling legs and the bead of sweat dripping from the corner of his face.

On the left side of the commander, a cold beauty with fear and panic sat quietly while twisting her fingers nervously under the table.

Subsequently, her chest rose and fell erratically as she tried her best to remain calm. Nonetheless, everyone inside the room could perceive her nervousness.

'What would I do if he decided to send me out of the ark…'

'No. No. He can't do that. We have the soul link. He can't forsake just because of his betrayal…'

'I can't decide like… since he became a star realm existence. His thoughts had become more unreadable. I can't rely only on the soul link…. I must look for other alternatives.'

'Sighed. I should have killed those bastards and shouldn't have appealed to him when he first showed his evil side…'

"Susan! Susan!" Kira called her voice raising an octave while everyone inside the room fixed their gaze on the cold beauty.

"What!" Susan snapped out of her thought as she raised her head with widened eyes and only to all the gaze directed at her.

'What happened?! Has he finally decided to send me out of the ark because of their betrayal….'

Thinking of this, her heart fell to rock bottom as she realized the gravity of the situation. She had never been in such a dangerous situation before, and the thought of being alone in an unknown land terrified her.

She tried to hold back the tears that threatened to spill down her cheeks, but it was no use. They streamed down her face, betraying the sadness and fear she felt inside.

She felt as though the weight of the world was crashing down upon her shoulders, and she was powerless to stop it.

The thought of leaving the safety and security of the train, and venturing into the unknown, was almost too much to bear.

She wished that she could just stay where she was, surrounded by the familiar faces of her colleagues, and never have to leave.

"W-why are you crying…." Kira stammered as she stood with panic written all over her face. She glanced at Justin before she rushed to her side.

"Please….don't send me out of the ark…. I-I can…" Susan broke into tears as her face flushed red, staring directly into Justin's eyes.

The sudden change in the event caught everyone by surprise. Besides, no one expected the cold beauty to have such a weak side. Thus, they looked at each not knowing how to react to the situation.

Nevertheless, they realized the situation may be direr than what they imagined. On the other hand, Leah could have the soul-piercing pain come from her soul link with Susan as she could feel her anguish.

She briefly explained what she was scared of and how attached she was to the group. Previously, when she was young, she had been abandoned by her mother who went to live with another man. Thus, making her lack motherly love and had a phobia of being abandoned by her loved ones.

Hence, she creates a cold wall around her to prevent others from knowing her weaker side. But now, the thought of being abandoned by a sole man that captures her heart once again. Her world was shattered and her emotions were in disarray.

"Don't cry… don't cry." Kira hugged her and caressed her hair gently. She turned her head and glared at Justin, saying with her eyes that he was at fault.

Seeing this, Justin rolled his eyes and wondered what was his fault. He hadn't decided anything yet, so what was his fault?

'You should know how she felt about being abandoned by her loved ones. So don't give me that look.' Kira said through their soul link.

Sighed. Justin shook his head and wondered how he was going to resolve the sudden misunderstanding. 'How would I know that she would be this fickle…when…it is related…to this…'

He rubbed his temple and looked at the tears streaming from the corner of her eyes and stood up from his seat.

Seeing this, everyone inside the room stood up all at once. Even though the meeting took a drastic turn, none of them had any expression on their faces. They knew Susan may be crying but she wasn't in any way weak. Besides, she seems to be in a relationship with their king.

Thus, making her position more delicate and dangerous.

Meanwhile, the people looked at Justin and wondered what he was up to and only for him to move closer to Kira and Susan.

He whispered and only Kira and Susan heard his voice. And behold, Susan's tears stopped and she raised her head, staring directly into his eyes and under the look of everyone.

Justin wrapped his hand around his thin long waist and brought her closer to his body. Under his shocking behavior, Susan's face had turned red like ripe tomatoes.

The cold expression Susan turned into a shy girl that was in love. In addition, her heart raced as she watched Justin's lips getting closer to hers. Seeing this, she closed her eyes and expected the heavenly kiss.

'Hmm'

Everyone inside the room widened their eyes as they couldn't believe how the tense atmosphere turned into a romantic one.

Gasped!

They looked at each other with shock written on their faces before they sighed and shook their heads jealous of the affectionate display.

'Know this, nothing will happen that will make me leave you in this life. Do you hear/' Justin's voice echoed inside Susan's head.

She nodded with her best smile.
