How To Open Stargazers Ruins

Darling: Don't Open That Door

My lips were tightly shut. My expression—blank. As if I didn’t understand the meaning behind his gaze, now sharper than ever. His fingers traced slowly along my jawline. The motion was calm. Measured. Too careful to be called affectionate. “So naive,” he whispered, barely audible. “Your breath... unchanged. Even your heartbeat is steady.” He leaned in. His lips brushed the skin beneath my ear—warm, but not seductive. A mere distraction. “These eyes... don’t lie. But they’re not completely honest either, are they?” His left hand slid to my back, tracing down my shoulder blades, then lower—to my waist. And stopped. Still. As if checking something. “Do you realize...” he continued, his voice soft yet piercing, “...of all the people who’ve seen my darkest side... you’re the only one who didn’t run.” I stayed silent. Just blinked once more, then gave a faint smile. “And why would I run?” My voice was light. Playful. I even let out a small laugh, more like a sigh. He didn’t laugh back. His gaze remained deep. His hand still touched my cheek—cold, scented with metal and leather. And then I... ...smiled. Genuinely. I leaned up slightly, raised his face gently with both hands, and kissed his cheek. The kiss left no mark, just a soft sound: chu — sweet, innocent. Almost like a child trying to show love. “Oh! You must be tired,” I said lightly. “I only made fish soup tonight, but the cuts are... kind of a mess.” I tugged gently at the hem of his shirt—playful, affectionate. Pulling him to hover directly over me. I slowly lay back on the bed, though my feet still touched the floor. My gaze never left him—looking up from the most vulnerable position. “But don’t ask why the cuts turned out so ugly,” I added with a small giggle. “Because earlier, the knife—” “The knife?” He interrupted. Flat voice. I nodded slowly, my eyes still bright. “Yeah, it’s so heavy! Where did you even buy it? Sharp, scary... but cool. Like... the kind used by a serial killer! Hehe~” For a few seconds, his expression shifted. Not angry. Not bothered. But... something changed. As if his mind had just collided with a memory that should’ve stayed locked away. Then, still calm, he said: “Don’t use that knife again. You could get hurt.” His fingers slipped into my hair—gentle, yet cold. “Tomorrow, I’ll give you a new one. Something that suits your hands better.” Then his lips lowered again. To my neck. At first, it tickled. But it quickly turned into something deeper than clumsy affection. Our breathing grew uneven. His body pressed heavily over mine, making the bed creak with every move.

MASTERPIECE OF RUIN

The room was thick with the smell of wine. January 2025, Aezren leaned against the couch with wine in his hand, His eyes red like the sun during an eclipse, while his hair a chaotic Blonde framed his face with eerie elegance, hoping not to be disturbed by the screams of people. He was the Grim Reaper and the cause of people’s misfortunes, so it was only natural that he was embraced by screams day and night. Without a moment’s notice, he heard another person cursing him. “Not this again…” he groaned as he got up. He sipped his wine as he watched the drunk woman cursing him from the reflection on his wine. Lavinia stood on the parapet wall with high heels, ready to fall at any moment. Her red lipstick messed up, her skin a shade of bright olive, her hair had faded black hair dye, her eyes a shade of deep green, reminiscent of the forest. Her movements came out unstable as she screamed out, “Seems like all doom is attracted to me!” she laughed, tears rolled down her face. “I’m really not,” Aezren scoffed as he rolled his eyes. His eyes blew into saucers at a closer look at her face. “That face, it’s her!” he exclaimed. “I can’t let her die,” he pleaded with desperation as his “heart” raced. Aezren put his glass of wine back on the table with telekinesis as he stood up and teleported to Lavinia. However, it was already too late and she jumped off. Aezren jumped off of the terrace and held her in his arms as he floated in the air. He quickly took her back to the terrace before anybody could notice. Lavinia shut her eyes tight, hoping for the worst to happen—her death. She opened her eyes soon after she realized that she was on solid ground. “What is it,” she smiled, “Am I in heaven or hell?” she walked as she wondered. She was in her own world. “You’re in none,” Aezren told her, about to crash out at her obliviousness. But of course, she was half rat — drunk as hell. He let out a deep sigh. She didn’t listen. He recited some sort of spell, his index and middle finger pointed at her. Since alcohol has similar affects to being dead, it was easy enough for him to get her to be sober. She blinked in surprise. “Wh…Who are you?” she stammered, taking steps back defensively. “Be my muse.” He asked her. He has been searching for a her for over 4 centuries now. Having been living for so long, he has started making paintings to pass time. He has her face like a fuzzy faded painting in his head, and he has always struggled to capture her in his paintings. Finding her was a dream come true for him. She couldn’t die. Not before he painted her. Lavinia’s breath hitched. She was hit with nausea and dizziness. “Please.. please leave me alone!” She begged, her voice came out louder than she wanted it to. Aezren stared at her, his expression unreadable. “I didn’t save you because I care about your life,” he said, voice low. “I saved you because you have a face that doesn’t belong to this era.” Lavinia’s breath hitched again, her head spinning, “What the hell does that even mean…?” “I’ve seen you before. In dreams, in sketches, in brush strokes I never finished.” He sighed, “Centuries of searching. And suddenly, you’re on a rooftop, yelling about doom like some half-broken opera.” “You’re insane,” she whispered, backing away. He didn’t argue. “Probably,” he said with a shrug. “But I don’t care what you believe. You’re here. And I need to paint you before you disappear again.” Lavinia blinked, confusion and fear wrestling inside her. But something about him—his tone, his posture, the weird mix of detachment and obsession—made her pause. Her stomach flipped. The room still spun, but she wasn’t sure if it was just the wine anymore. “Okay,” she said slowly, swallowing hard. TW: Might include topics or references to Self harm.

HOW TO RECOVER BACK STOLEN CRYPTOCURRENCY

My name is Viktoriya, and I’m from Russia. I’m here to share a story I never imagined I’d tell. It’s a story of trust, betrayal, heartache, and finally — hope. It’s about how I was scammed by an online fake investment platform, nearly lost my marriage, and how Autopsy Mainnet Recovery saved me from losing everything I held dear. Like many others, I was always looking for ways to improve my life. As a mother, a wife, and someone trying to secure a future for my family, I found myself searching for opportunities to make our life better. That’s when I came across an online investment platform that promised huge returns. The website looked professional, the testimonials seemed genuine, and the offers were too good to ignore. The excitement of possibly changing my life was overwhelming. It felt like the chance I had been waiting for. I spoke with the so-called “investment advisors” who reassured me at every step. They were persuasive, calm, and made me feel confident. They showed me charts, explained strategies, and before I knew it, I had invested almost everything I had — savings, retirement funds, even money I had set aside for my children’s future. It was a huge risk, but I thought it was worth it. Little did I know, I was walking straight into a trap. Over the next few weeks, everything seemed fine. My investment appeared to be growing. The platform’s updates were regular, and they made me believe that my money was safe. But one day, everything changed. I woke up to find that the platform was completely gone — no contact, no way to access my account. The website disappeared overnight, leaving nothing but a cold void where my hopes had been. I was devastated. But that wasn’t even the worst part. I was too ashamed to tell my husband, too embarrassed to admit what I had done. He had trusted me, and now I had betrayed that trust. The tension between us grew. We argued constantly. My husband became distant, and I could feel our relationship slowly crumbling. I felt like I had ruined everything — my marriage, my future, and my children’s security. I cried every night. I lost sleep, my health started to deteriorate, and I couldn’t stop blaming myself for being so foolish. I didn’t know how to fix things. It felt like I was suffocating. That’s when a friend told me about Autopsy Mainnet Recovery. At first, I was skeptical. How could anyone help me after everything was gone? But I was desperate. I had nothing to lose. I contacted them, and from the moment I spoke with their team, I felt a glimmer of hope. They listened to my story without judgment. They understood my pain. They reassured me that I wasn’t alone and that they would do everything in their power to help me recover what I had lost. Their team quickly started working on tracing the funds, using advanced techniques to track where my money had gone. Within weeks, they recovered a significant portion of my lost investment. The relief I felt was indescribable. It wasn’t just the money — it was the weight that had been lifted off my shoulders. For the first time in months, I felt like I had a future again. Autopsy Mainnet Recovery not only helped me reclaim my funds, but they also gave me the chance to rebuild my life and my marriage. I can never thank them enough. Autopsy Mainnet Recovery are the best at what they do. If you’ve been in a similar situation — if you’ve lost hope — please reach out to them. They can help you too. You don’t have to lose everything. WhatsApp: ‪‪+44 758 601 9698‬‬ Website: ‪autmainrec.com‬ Email: [ Autopsymainnetrecovery@autopsy.co.site ]
