Ahh the 😭🔥 “The Wild Zones”—this one had me absolutely gone. That opening—just Rose and Kai walking away from the settlement, the laughter fading behind them—ugh, it hit right in the chest. You can feel how much they’ve left behind. The silence between them wasn’t empty; it was heavy, full of all the things they couldn’t say. And when Kai asked, “Do you want to tell me anything?” and she just… didn’t? 🥺 My poor heart. He knows her far too well, it’s painful in the best way.The journey itself had that eerie, crawling tension—the trees twisting, the air turning thick, the whole world feeling slightly off. It was brilliant, honestly. I could hear every crunch of their boots and feel the wind shift around them. And when Rose whispered, “Stop moving”—I actually froze 😭 The calm in her voice, the quiet command—it sent chills. And Kai just stepping in front of her without a single thought?? Ugh, perfection. That’s trust. That’s *them.*And when the creatures showed up?? Oh my days. I was clutching my phone like it owed me money 😭🔥 The ground exploding, Rose’s energy hurling them back, Kai’s glowing fists slamming down like thunder—it was chaos and beauty all at once. The way they fight—completely in sync, no hesitation—it’s like instinct. You can tell they get each other in a way no one else does. And that silence after? Not peace. The kind of quiet that makes you hold your breath because you know something’s still watching.The ending though… Rose saying they need shelter, Kai’s soft “Agreed,” and the two of them disappearing into the dark while the last light fades—ugh, goosebumps. 🥺🔥 It was haunting, but in that breathtaking way. Every moment felt alive, like the world was pulsing around them. I swear, every chapter just pulls me deeper in. I adore these two. I’m fully obsessed, it’s actually embarrassing 😭
