Together, we run toward the flying spacecraft’s light. It beams us inside. The miners follow

“Ten seconds until detonation…”

When I’m inside, I can’t believe my eyes. Rekker stands, manning the vehicle. His body is young again. His muscles, rippling hard.

He turns, smiling. “Hello, sweetheart.”

The alphas join his side.

I fall to my knees. “You… You… You survived,” I stutter.

“Just a minor fix,” he says. “As soon as the machine healed me, I knew I had to take the risk. I couldn’t let you go,” he says.

I run to hug them, kiss them, and touch them, but as soon as I take the leap forward, I hear Slain’s final scream.

“I am oblivion.”

“Let’s go,” Akron shouts.

We zoom out of planet Ferän as the starfisher bomb detonates the entire planet.

With fire and rubble trailing our ass, Rekker turns on our forcefield and sits back.

“Well, that was interesting,” he jokes.

Earth – here we come.

Love does not come easy.

You have to find it. But to do that, you have to leave familiarity.

You have to take the biggest risk of your life.

That’s what I did. And my alphas followed my lead. Each and every one of us sacrificed a part of ourselves to get where we are today.

Love is sorrow. Love is pain. Sometimes, it’s near damn impossible. But you fight for it. You hold on as long as you can.

The truth becomes more apparent than ever. Love is the only answer.

Akron stands near the escape pods. The miners stand by his side. It’s hard not to feel a little sad about his leaving, but I know he’s ready to get his life back in order. Ubara is a planet in need of a leader. I have faith he’ll fix things. He’ll make it right over there.

“You sure you don’t want to come to Earth?” I ask.

He chuckles. “What, and be forced to wear a cloaking device all day?” he asks. “No thanks. I think I’m ready for something bigger.”

“Like what?” Rekker asks.

Akron grins and holds out his palm. “You still have that Resnyx?”

“Don’t tell me you’re going down that road,” Lök replies.

Akron turns serious. “The sentinels are still roaming those streets. I’ll need a bargaining chip if I want to gain power.”

“The only thing the Resnyx brings is chaos,” Vraik grunts.
