You deserve someone better.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas stiffened. He pulled back just enough to look at her, his eyes narrowing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you even hear what you’re saying?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy nodded weakly, tears blurring her vision. \"I don’t deserve you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heartbreak flashed across Silas’s face. The next moment, he gently laid her on the bed and began to undress her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy froze. \"What are you doing?\" she asked shakily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas didn’t answer. He undressed quickly, then paused, looking at her bare form with reverence rather than desire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaned down, brushed a kiss against her cheek, then pressed one to her forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy’s heart raced, confusion mixing with warmth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas cupped her cheeks gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"These are the cheeks I dreamed of touching,\" he murmured. He kissed her lips softly. \"These are the lips I dreamed of kissing.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He kissed her forehead again, then her eyes, her ears. \"These were all things I craved... but never dared to take.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, he lifted her fingers, kissing them one by one, almost as if worshipping her. His voice softened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You might not know this,\" he said quietly, \"but to me, you’re a goddess.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A goddess he had never dared to harbor impure designs on, yet one he had shamelessly chased, believing that one day his devotion would overflow enough for him to finally claim a place beside her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew the method he used was despicable. He knew it clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, from the depths of his heart, he loved this goddess and engraved her existence into his very bones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now Ivy was saying that she was not worthy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If that was the case, then shouldn’t it be him who was unworthy instead?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was the one who had used such a shameful way to stay by her side. He was the one who did not deserve Ivy at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy’s eyes watered as she shook her head lightly, her voice trembling. \"You’re saying nonsense again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas interrupted gently, his tone firm yet warm. \"That’s how I feel.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He truly could not understand why Ivy could not feel assured about herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no one like her in this entire universe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one possessed such power. No one carried such beauty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one had a soul that could bind him so deeply, so obsessively, that even breathing felt incomplete without her presence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one could ever compare to Ivy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why? Because even after everything she had endured, even after witnessing the cruelest sides of humanity, she never abandoned humanity itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She never cut it off. From all the experiments inflicted on her in her previous life, from every scar carved into her existence, she could have chosen destruction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could have burned the world down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, she turned her hatred only toward those who had wronged her and shielded the innocent with her own hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There was no one like you,\" Silas murmured, his thumb brushing her cheek. \"And there never will be.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could not understand how someone like Ivy could hold all of that together and still act as if she had done nothing alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From his perspective, Ivy was a goddess meant to be worshipped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As those words fell from his lips, he leaned in and kissed her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His kisses were deep yet reverent, carrying no hunger, only devotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy did not feel claimed. She felt cherished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tears slipped from the corners of her eyes, soaking into the sheets beneath her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Why is he so gentle?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead of overwhelming her, he kissed her softly, everywhere, slow and patient, until the tension in her shoulders eased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her cheeks warmed, a faint blush creeping up as her shame slowly dissolved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the light, teasing touches that followed only made her laugh breathlessly, the heaviness in her chest finally loosening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, it was Silas who guided her to the bathroom, steam filling the air as he helped her wash away the remnants of fear clinging to her skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy sat quietly on the small bathroom stool, the scent of warm water and soap lingering in the air, while Silas knelt and gently rubbed her feet dry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hesitated before whispering, \"Don’t you feel humiliated... doing this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas laughed softly, his voice relaxed. \"Humiliated? No.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked up at her, eyes sincere. \"I feel fortunate. I get to do this for my goddess.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy turned her face away, suddenly flustered after seeing something she was not yet ready to face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice dropped to a murmur. \"One day... I’ll be able to accept you completely.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas chuckled, unbothered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Becoming your husband is more than enough for me. Even if I never become your whole world, I’d still be the luckiest man alive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silas might have lusted after Ivy, but the true root of his love lay far deeper, buried in a childhood memory neither time nor pain could erase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first time Ivy and Silas met, the world had been unbearably harsh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ivy was running away from home, overwhelmed by the pressure that a child should never have known.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was only seven, thin and fragile, knowing only one thing... she had to escape parents who had nearly killed her.\u003C\u002Fp>",1001,"2026-06-05T15:12:36.808Z",1,"novelbin.me","3a792b3d2b2b0971d0400895b3c0224fd734b52a2efb1a50c898cc0ce8c85acd","zombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-chapter-475","zombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-chapter-473",706,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fzombie-apocalypse-i-have-safe-zone-superpower-cover.jpg"]
