Hii guys

Let get started
Zephyrus Valtieri/Night Reaper/ML
That artifact isn’t something you should play with. It’s not a toy. It’s older than you could possibly imagine—and far more dangerous.
Zaira Veyrin/FL
(leaning in slightly, her voice a whisper)Dangerous enough for you to hide it in a vault beneath your empire? What are you so afraid of, Mr. Valtieri?
Zephyrus Valtieri/Night Reaper/ML
(his voice dropping to a deadly whisper)I’m not afraid of anything. But maybe you should be. That device doesn’t just alter time—it alters fate. And fate has a funny way of punishing those who try to control it.
Silence falls between them, the tension crackling like a live wire. Zaira feels a pull she can’t explain—something about Zeph is magnetic, dangerous, and maddeningly alluring all at once. She hates it. And yet, she doesn’t move away.
Zaira Veyrin/FL
(softly, but with an edge)Maybe I don’t believe in fate.
Zephyrus Valtieri/Night Reaper/ML
(smirking, his hand brushing hers as he reaches for the glass casing)Then you’re either a fool….or braver than most.
The lights flicker again, and the hum grows louder. Zeph’s eyes dart to the device, his expression darkening.
Zephyrus Valtieri/Night Reaper/ML
(gritting his teeth)Step back Now.
Zaira Veyrin/FL
(defiantly)What’s happening?
Zephyrus Valtieri/Night Reaper/ML
(grabbing her arm, his voice sharp)I said step back!
Before she can argue, the device emits a blinding flash of light. Time seems to freeze for a moment, the room warping and twisting. Zaira’s breath catches as flashes of unfamiliar faces and places flood her mind—images of her and Zeph together in different eras, different lives, each ending in chaos and bloodshed. When the light fades, she’s on the floor, gasping for breath. Zeph crouches beside her, his expression unreadable.
Zephyrus Valtieri/Night Reaper/ML
(quietly)Now do you see why I warned you?
Zaira Veyrin/FL
(looking up at him, her voice trembling)What… was that?
Zephyrus Valtieri/Night Reaper/ML
(standing, his tone cold)The past. The future. And everything in between. You just opened a door that should’ve stayed shut, Miss Veyrin.
He turns, walking away as Zaira stares after him, her mind racing with questions. The device glows faintly behind her, its secrets still untold.
