Chapter 213 – I Came for the One with My Billions

Ravyn couldn’t stop the memories from creeping in, no matter how hard he tried to bury them. The images, the videos of Voren and Seraphine together flashed through his mind like something determined to haunt him, refusing to fade no matter how much he forced himself to focus on something else.
