Chapter: Chapter 119Chapter 119Jayson drove slowly along the narrow road, his hands gripping the steering wheel so tightly that his knuckles had turned white. He had been silent for most of the journey, speaking only when necessary to direct his father, Michael, Davey, and Suzzane. Every few seconds, he glanced through the windshield, searching the roadside for anything familiar.The place looked different in the fading evening light. During the day, the trees lining the road would have appeared ordinary, even peaceful. Now, their long shadows stretched across the pavement, and the thick bushes on either side seemed to conceal endless possibilities. The air was unusually still, except for the occasional rustle of leaves stirred by the wind.“This is it,” Jayson finally said, his voice tense.Michael leaned forward from the passenger seat. “Are you certain?”Jayson nodded slowly. “Yes. This is the exact spot. I saw Daisy and her friends walking in that direction.” He pointed toward a narrow path disappea

Chapter: Chapter 118Chapter 118The moment Michael ended the call with Suzanne, the living room fell into a heavy, suffocating silence.For several seconds, neither father nor son spoke.Jayson, on the other hand, could not remain still.He paced across the living room with frantic, uneven steps, moving from one end of the room to the other and then turning back again. His hands repeatedly clenched and unclenched at his sides. Every few seconds, he dragged his fingers through his hair, pulling at it in frustration, before continuing his restless march.Daisy was missing.The thought circled through his mind like a terrible echo.Missing.The word was too frightening to accept, too dreadful to attach to someone he loved. Daisy was impulsive, stubborn, and occasionally impossible to deal with, but she had always been there. He knew where she was, who she was with, and how to reach her. Even when she stormed out in anger, he had always been able to find her.This was different.There had been no message fro

Chapter: Chapter 117 Chapter 117The struggle back into consciousness was not a gentle drift; it was a violent collision with reality. Daisy’s eyelids fluttered, heavy and coated in a draining weight, like leaden curtains she couldn’t quite pull back. When she finally forced them open, she was met with an abyss of absolute, suffocating darkness.A sharp, metallic tang burned the back of her throat—the lingering residue of the sedative that had turned her world into a void. Every muscle in her body screamed in protest, locked in a state of sluggish paralysis. She tried to shift, to recoil, but her wrists bit into the coarse texture of rope, locked firmly behind the small of her back. The sudden realization of her vulnerability struck her like a physical blow. Her heart, which had been beating in a lethargic rhythm, suddenly spiked into a frantic, erratic thrum against her ribs.Panic, cold and sharp, flooded her veins. She tried to inhale, but her breath hitched, catching in a throat raw from the chemica

Chapter: Chapter 116Chapter 116The walkway leading to the academic block was crowded, the air thick with the humidity of the afternoon and the ceaseless chatter of students. Sasha trailed a half-step behind Daisy, her hands nervously gripping the strap of her bag. The silence between them had become suffocating, a taut wire waiting to snap."Did… did you really have to remove Hannah from the team?" Sasha ventured, her voice barely rising above a mumble. She kept her eyes averted, afraid of the judgment she knew would follow. "I don’t think it’s… fair. She’s worked just as hard as the rest of us."Daisy stopped so abruptly that Sasha nearly bumped into her. The sudden stillness was like a vacuum, sucking the noise out of the surrounding hallway. Daisy pivoted on her heel, her movements sharp and predatory. A deep, jagged frown etched itself across her brow, her eyes narrowing into cold, crystalline slits.Sasha flinched, instinctively pressing her lips together until they turned white. She looked like a

Chapter: Chapter 115The silence in the bedroom was shattered by the sharp, rhythmic trill of Suzzane’s phone. She was mid-clasp with a pearl earring, her fingers trembling slightly as she glanced at the caller ID: General Harry. Her heart hammered against her ribs like a trapped bird. She knew what this call meant. This was the final piece of a puzzle she had been desperately trying to avoid assembling.She swiped "Accept" and pressed the device to her ear."The result is out, Mrs. Ashford," General Harry’s voice was clipped, devoid of the usual professional warmth he reserved for the town’s elite. It was cold, clinical, and ominous.Suzzane’s breath hitched. A sudden, chilling clarity washed over her. The vanity mirror reflected a pair of mahogany eyes wide with a frantic, desperate anticipation. Her pupils dilated, darting across the glass as if searching for a lie—anything other than the truth she feared. Her skin went paper-white, and her hands, which had been so steady moments before, now betrayed h

Chapter: Chapter 114Chapter 114 At school the next day, the cafeteria was a cacophony of clattering trays, metallic screeching, and the overlapping drone of hundreds of students seeking respite from their morning classes. At the center of this social ecosystem sat Daisy, anchored at the prime circular table by the window just exactly where she loved sitting down during breaks. She sat with a rigid, practiced elegance, her posture projecting an aura of untouchable authority. Her laughter, punctuating a lively exchange with her friends, was light and melodic, yet it carried the sharp, rehearsed quality of someone who knew exactly how she was being perceived. The atmosphere shifted abruptly, the air growing heavy and static. A shadow fell across the table, fracturing the light. Hannah stood there, backed by her loyal but visibly anxious friend, Gloria. Hannah’s face was a study in controlled agitation; her jaw was set, and her knuckles were white where she gripped the strap of her bag. “Daisy,” Hanna

Chapter: Chapter 18The sounds came again and Leilani moved further into the room. Her heart was beating so fast against her chest and yet, she couldn't turn and run out. "Help...me...help..." Leilani gasped sharply immediately she heard the faint voice. She stopped abruptly, straining her neck, trying to see anything in the dark."Who could be here?" She mumbled to herself, walking slowly.She heard a noise from behind and turned sharply. The door behind her was opening! She could hear the clicking from behind. QHastily and blindly, she ran into a corner, crouched down on her knees, panting noisily but trying so hard to control herself.She saw a figure walk around the room and few minutes later, it left. Leilani breathed in heavily, her hand on her chest. She thought she was going to get caught. Although the room was dark and she couldn't see the face of the man that had entered, Leilani knew who it was.King Tarzan. Slowly, she got up on her feet, traced her steps to the door and left the room a

Chapter: Chapter 17Tarzan's hand dropped down, still glaring at her. He moved away from her, his anger and fury boiling. "Stand up on your feet."Leilani shivered as she slowly stood, her eyes glued to the floor. She knew she was in trouble. A deep one."Once it is eight PM tomorrow, I want to see you waiting at the palace hall." Tarzan said, staring out of the window. Leilani nodded vigorously, hoping she would be save from being whipped."Get out." Tarzan's voice was dangerously low and without wasting a second, Leilani bowed and fled the room.Tarzan groaned in pure torment as he stared down at his erection. It was impossible for him to stay that way. He need something to get him back to normal."Roman." He called sharply.The door opened and Roman stepped in. "Yes my king." "Get me Nikita." He ordered and Roman left the room immediately.Tarzan walked to the bed and sat, his angry mind on Leilani. He would teach her just exactly what she needed to know.Few minutes later, Nikita walked into the ro

Chapter: Chapter 16The pregnant young lady moved forward, her hands on the surface of her bulging tummy. "You almost died. What are you doing in my house? I ask again."Luca swallowed hard, still moving backwards on the ground. "I was attacked." The girl nodded, still coming nearer. "Or are you one of those who has been sent to kill me?" Luca frowned. "No. You said it yourself that I almost died and besides, why would anyone want to kill you? Who are you and what is a girl in your condition doing in a terrible place like this?""So much questions. Are you a spy? I was right after all. I saved your life so it would be really ungrateful if you do anything to me."Luca forced himself on his feet, holding on to one of his sides. "Why would anyone want you dead? Who are you?" He asked again."Leave me the hell alone and get out of my house. I don't want you here. Get..ahhh!!" She suddenly screamed, her hands gripping under her bulging tummy. It was obvious she was in pain and ijln labor."Are you okay?" Lu

Chapter: Chapter 15The cranky old bed made some sounds as the woman on it moved, her back still turned against the world. Tarzan stood behind her, glaring down at her, his hatred showing in his blue eyes. "The shadow, wolf... everything. What's happening? Why am I suddenly seeing these things?" "She's here." The unsteady voice sounded from the woman on the bed. Her voice sounded old. Weak. Dry. "Who's here?" Tarzan asked with a snort, his eyes having that look of deep hatred. "She's here. Your special abilities are finally coming to you." Tarzan stared on, expecting her to say more. When he heard nothing more from her, he walked to the door. "Tarzan." The trembling voice called again. Tarzan stopped at the door, slowly turned to take a look. "Get me out of here." "Not even in your dreams is that gonna happen." With that, he opened the door and left the dark room. He walked back into his chambers, took off his clothes and had another shower before walking to the table to uncover his dishes. He

Chapter: Chapter 14The raindrops slapped against her back as she bent, digging out logs of yam. She was alone in the farm again as instructed by the king.Leilani stood up straight, stared around the large farm. She was drenched in the rain but that was the list of her problem. Slowly, she looked up at the king's window and saw him standing there, probably glaring down at her.She stared back, not minding what the punishment would be later on. He was like a huge black shadow; a golden stature. Her axe fell off her hand when she felt something invisible crawling into her head. She held her head with both hands, still staring up at the window. "Leave me alone. Please. Please. Don't kill me." She pleaded, her tears mixing up with the rain as she wept."For you... I'd go to the extremes. I'd punish you for disobeying me in different ways."A voice said in her head.Leilani closed her eyes and sat on the ground flowing with flood. "Please... don't kill me...""Stand up and continue working!" Hugo suddenly b

Chapter: Chapter 13Leilani crouched down in her cold dungeon, her arms around her legs with her eyes staring up at the dark and old walls. Memories after memories swept past her. She'd been a princess with little or no choice of her own. She was always ordered around, told whom to walk with and whom to hate. At the early stage of her life, she'd come to know that she was betrothed to someone; a prince. Someone she doesn't have the slightest feeling for and she'd left the palace because of him. She couldn't bear it anymore, seeing him being so possessive over her and so commanding. And now, she'd become a slave. A slave to someone she never thought she'd see again; someone she hurt badly unintentionally. Leilani sighed and reached for back and groaned out in pain. She was in the biggest pain of her life. Her back ached badly that it brought tears to her eyes. Suddenly, she noticed a movement from the corner of her eyes and when she turned to take a look, she saw a huge black snake crawling right t
