When Mellow Fanning married Zeath Lupin, the cold chairman of Lupin Group, she thought their love was forever. But everything crumbled when he introduced his pregnant mistress at a family dinner.
Angry, Mellow sought to make Zeath restless by kidnapping the mistress. However, that resulted in a tragedy that nearly claimed her life and that of the child growing inside her—a child Zeath didn’t deserve.
She faked her death and ran away, bound to return as Zeath’s only means to remain as the chairman of Lupin Group.
Would he recognize her? Would she accept his apology if he ever gave one? And what would happen when the threat she once fled from rekindled, endangering her and her child’s lives once more?
>>>>>
“Do you know how much I wished you wouldn’t come near me, or even... touch me?” Zeath drones on. “All those cuddles and kisses, all the affection, made my skin crawl—like a troll embracing its victim before gobbling them. One can only imagine how much it stinks. You are no different from that troll. You merely caught my attention because you were a self-absorbed twonk, and we needed to test if you even had the heart to love another.”
“We?” I croak out.
Then Zeath’s fingers trail gently along my face, his eyes glinting with pure poison, and his voice is no better.
“Poor Mellow, it is all a dare, a gratifying one. Divorce or not, it’s your choice.”

Chapter: THE GUNSHOTPolinel doubles up with a guffaw, waving the gun in the air as if it’s a flag. Then she rises to her feet. “It’s funny, isn’t it, mother—that your favorite daughter is eager to see you dead?” She queries mockingly. “How very pitiful. Do you know I’ve always envied you, Mellow…?” Right, that’s a small and subtle step to knowing her weak point. “…Mother always saw you as the best of us both. She wanted you to take over the factory instead of me. I remember how desperate I was to show her that I could actually beat you and be the best, yet she wouldn’t buy any of that. How fervent she was to hold on to her little girl who went ahead to marry her fantasy husband, ignoring me who was right next to her.” There! There’s a w

Chapter: THE FAMILY ONCE ENVIEDI’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve blacked out and woke up only to find myself in strange places.Today is one of those days. Except, unlike other times, I’m seated in a metal chair, my hands chained behind it. I look around to check what I could make of the surrounding. Nothing. Just an empty, dusty space with piles of gun parts and a few huge cardboard boxes. The place stinks as well, gathering this tough stench of metal.

Chapter: I SEE BLACKWhen I asked the hospital if Zeath had woken up, they told me he might take some time to do so, but they would be watching him.Yet here I am being the Zeath’s keeper. I want to talk to him and urge him to wake up, but even my lips feel too heavy to move. What’s the use talking to him anyway? It’s not like he’d hear my voice.

Chapter: BEMURDA TRIANGLEWhen the DPO said some of his men would watch me, he wasn’t lying—because now I’m walking into a cozy bar hoping to escape the rest of my problems only to find two men in uniforms block my way.“I can’t even get a damn drink?” I ask. One of them stares at Zeath’s car that I drove. “Oh, well. You know what? I’m still gonna drink…” I squeeze Zeath’s car keys into one’s palm, “…and you can go ahead and drive me back home or the hospital afterward, at least save your own fucking fuel.” I cut my way between the men, pushing past them into the bar and making straight for the counter. “Please give me anything strong enough to knock me out,” I tell the barman who immediately gets to work.

Chapter: THE INHUMANITY I'VE SEENHow is it that any of this is even happening? “I mean, Zeath wasn’t even shot OUTSIDE the warehouse. Everything happened INSIDE it,” I argue with a huff. “And, yes, the place is filled with boxes but I’m sure as hell that there’s no gold inside.” “There is, actually. If you were opportune to continue with your intention you would have known.”I take my prized gaze back to the man. Maybe it’s to check the sincerity in his expression or to examine his foolishness through his stare. Which is it?

Chapter: FREAKING ZEATH LUPINThe emergency arrived after a while—a long while, actually. They mentioned something about the lateness being due to how remote the area was but I was more concerned about the man who had been sinking in his own pool of blood.When we reached the nearest hospital, Zeath’s unconscious body was wheeled to the operation room while I was left to roam the emergency section hallway.And now I’m growing more miserable by the hour at the thought of Zeath life slipping out of his own hands.

To Put A Leash On The Master
“Heidi, call me a monster. Call me a beast. Fuck, call me the Devil. It does not change the way I feel about you.”
“How about the way ‘I’ feel about you?” I whisper. “This hatred—built from love, passion… trust.”
Hunter gently takes my hand and interlocks it with his before placing both on his chest. He then leans down to bump his forehead on mine, making me close my eyes and sigh as it drives in me sensations that cause me to crumble. “I love you, Heidi…” he whispers—doesn’t do good for my eyes bleeding more tears. “…and I will let the world burn for you.”

H E I D I
I’ve lived twenty-two years but never seen a man like Hunter. He has killed everyone I know and is bound to do more, which is why I’m determined to stop him, if only I wouldn’t have to deal with these emotions—old feelings clashing with new ones; love and hate—that make me want to squash his heart one moment, then piece it up the next. But I know I can’t hang between these feelings forever. I have to choose, and quickly.
H U N T E R
I am told she is dangerous, a being forbidden from existence. Yet, I find myself protecting her. I shouldn’t, but I do. Then I realize she isn’t the threat. Where danger lies is with my feelings—ones that I must not have, that will be my downfall.
To be that creature feared by all, I need to be the man with nothing to lose. But now I have so much to lose. Even nature has fated our Love to be doomed and will see to its vow that one of us is destroyed.

Chapter: An Accomplice Of DarknessThe hallway echoes the footfalls of stomping darkness.But as the mute walls give way to the caress of a slow and brooding piano motif, the huge, two-way door at the hallway’s end brings us the pleasantries of a room screaming sanity and proper celebrations.A descent of steps in front of me leads to the dance floor, where pillars are still but bodies swing. With the roof high and unending, the floors are as slippery as the devil’s tongue, absolutely unfit for a person to walk on.Except these aren’t people. No, they’re not. They look paradisiacal. Vibrant despite the hall’s caliginous state.As the ladies trip the light fantastic to a hypnotic rhythm, their bowl dresses swirl around their feet, their long and colorful strands like air behind them. The smiles capturing their countenances tell the tales of their light minds, charming the gents who look graceful in patterned tailcoats over black pants.Their light tones unite to battle the funereal aura of the hall, somehow nearly kil

Chapter: Turn Me Above A FireNot a familiar name, that one. I’ve heard nothing of it until now.Maybe he didn’t make it to the history books. It could be about the empire; history must have registered the empire instead.But I must find a way of asking about it without compromising myself. That way, I can also note this woman’s level of intelligence.“Um…” I clear my throat, shuffling to the stool I once sat on and placing my hands on it to drop my weight. “My ‘experiments’ have eaten most of my time, and I’m probably too exhausted to recall a lot of… things.” Wait. Do I sound medieval enough? “Did I... have any plans for today?” Does she understand? She’s looking at me with her lips slightly parted, and I think it’s disbelief, especially since her hands have stopped working.“Queva,” she says, then rests against the counter. “Finish the Battle of Cutting Seas, conquering Queva. Then... celebrate... with the emperor. Your experiment’s progress has not fared well of late, and you needed to ease your mind. Seeing

Chapter: Dead And AliveHEIDI.The rich, warm scent of soil, of fresh rain on earth, reminds me of how it feels to be alive.It looks to me like I’ve been thrown into a random fiction series—dark fantasy, to be precise. Should I say it’s the underworld? Nah. The underworld wouldn’t look this good. Heaven wouldn’t be this bad(?) either. Between? Maybe. But I can’t recall whether Philosophers mentioned a place between the two.Regardless of what this is, it’s a surety that I’m dead. Its near ruin of greys and ashes, mists and moisture, stones and bristled grounds, only makes me thank my shoes—and a soul that had formed a sole to tread on melting metal.I find I’m standing in a lone and narrow medieval street that looks like a painting, flanked by dark, imposing brick buildings. Their pointed roofs give me chills, especially as they look as if they could pierce the looming, twilight grey sky until it releases the clouds upon my very head.Speaking of the sky, I don’t know if I should tag it sunless or moonless.

Chapter: Lunacy Meets Obsession“Another blood oath? I resisted the first,” I say as I look at the Umbra Crown who is suddenly bearing an excited demeanor.“Ah, ah. This one is different.” He rubs his index and thumb fingers like a chef warming up for his next delicacy, disappearing and appearing in the fog while scurrying around pillars. He suddenly stops close to me, sniffing near my neck. “It is like… an awakening. Hah!”Then he vanishes again.When he comes back, it’s with a ring this time, one the size of his head. Its property is unknown, but it shimmers with lights that seem alive, looking like a colorful snake slithers inside it.The object could break if it falls; that is how fragile it looks. The Realm’s Future, they call it. It is also the only thing with color in the Labyrinth, aside from the Umbra Crown’s golden eyes that are now peering at my face pores.“No,” I mutter when he tries to crown me with the ring. I know what it does to people. It deceives. “Do not manipulate me with that thing again.”“O

Chapter: Hunter's POVHUNTER.There is a forlorn whistle; a tune sounding like a call for help, only, it’s not that.It is a bird―Tapi’s Fury. A creature of the dark, built like the nightingale, with a song as loud as the latter’s. It’s never found in the human world or the Realm. Tapi’s Furys are known to exist only in the Labyrinth of Shadows―a dreaded dwelling created by the legendary sorcerer, Tapi, to shield Kings of the Realm from the talons of Firnes.It has endless pillars—of roughly stacked stones—spread out in rows through the Labyrinth, all leaving four paces between each other.The pillars’ tops reach the sky where they disappear in black clouds of rumbling mess, while their bases are rocks shaped like vines, stretching out as roots on the dry, rough ground.One distinctive feature of the Labyrinth is its colorless nature.Diverse smell is not a leisure either.One could wear whatever scent they liked. As strong as it may be, it all ends in a blast of roasted earth breathing in the wake of a b

Chapter: The Last Sound I HearMy car’s parked across the road with me in the driver’s seat. White’s main company building overlooks us, the road partition and the crowd serving as my only blockade to it.I should ride into the building’s garage. It’s safer now, after all, as the police are now limiting the severity of violence and have placed barriers so the crowd won’t obstruct people getting in and out of the building.But I’m still feeling like a tightrope walker; afraid of so many things at once that I can’t begin to point them out.And yet what’s more disturbing is the wailing throng. Their famished appearances, coupled with the fact that most have slept here for days because they can’t return home and be reminded of their deceased loved one is enough to drive even the cold-hearted to sympathy. Hunter excluded.While watching the hectic scene, I notice an odd person cut through the crowd into the building. I only saw their backside. Yet, regardless of them being fast, I caught that the person was a male.He wo

Her Men Of Ruin
“I’m going to have to f^ck you if you keep this up,” he growls. “I’ll bend you over and bury my c0ck deep in your needy little pu$$y.”
Heaven moans. His words only fuel the fire inside her, and the knowledge of her turning him on makes her rock faster, arching her back more until her cl!t drags harder against his thigh.
>>>
A failed final-year school project. Seven wasted years in a school of dance. An unclear and unstable future. Those mark the start of Heaven’s miserable life.
But then a random man comes along with a job offer that she cannot resist—teach his kid and earn an enormous amount.
Heaven accepts the offer. Little does she know this man is Ziason Father, the Alpha of Moon’s Wrath pack.
He’s infamous for his deviltry, rumored to bathe in blood and feed on it.
Now Heaven is trapped under his dark claws, forced to safeguard his biggest secrets with her life and liberty.
She knows she can never escape him. Even though she tried, she may end up losing her life. Yet, how sure is she that he wouldn’t still k!ll her if she stays? Especially with his brothers looming, hellbent on being obstacles to her survival.

Chapter: A Weak Alpha“There is no way to revive her soul in another body, Alpha. However, my advice would have been to just bury her if I did not find her ability extraordinary,” the pack’s forensic doctor notes after examining Kaicha’s corpse, which is on a stretcher. Looking up, he faces Alpha Ziason, who’s leaning against the wall at a far end of the dim-lit morgue room. “I studied a few bodies of the dead enemy soldiers and found out that this child’s power roasted their hearts. I am willing to discover more.”Ziason sighs deeply. His original plan for wanting the forensic to study Kaicha’s body was to determine if there was a way he could extract her soul to an alive body in order to resuscitate her powers.It’s obvious that her powers really damaged the other pack. Anyone can see it.What happened in the battle would definitely shake Tribalan pack, which is why he’s more convinced about her usefulness in the pack’s present and future.However, if her soul can’t be revived, then it’s useless to hope

Chapter: Triggering ChaosZiason witnessed the same thing Zeedar saw. What he didn’t expect was the ambassador dashing like that.He runs after him. But due to his lost wolf, he’s not as fast as his brother. The scene he meets when he arrives the front of the tower is Zeedar’s wolf aggressively slashing at Kaicha’s chest, her blood splashing all over him, yet he doesn’t seem to care.“BROTHER!” the Alpha screams, running with all the might in him.He reaches the ambassador just the latter digs out Kaicha’s heart and pieces it all over the place. Then Ziason proceeds to tug at the wolf by the furs of its nape. Zeedar obeys and allows himself to be dragged away from Kaicha’s corpse, turning back to his human form and sitting on the ground naked. He watches as Ziason kneels beside Kaicha’s body, ignoring the blood pooled around her. “No…” Ziason whispers. His voice comes out hoarse. “What have you done, brother?” He glances at Zeedar before looking back at Kaicha. It’s certain there’s no remedy for the child

Chapter: An Overturned BattleThe woman’s smile is wide and can be mistaken to be wholesome… or charming. But Heaven knows it’s nothing close to those.That smile is lethal. And Heaven confirms it when the woman starts moving forward, approaching Heaven while still fluttering her fingers and never wiping off that smile.Heaven shifts backwards to avoid the woman. Her direction is towards the window, until she hears the man that scaled the tower walls earlier landing into the room from there.She turns back to find him standing near the bed, blocking any form of withdrawal she would have had—not like going to the window would be of any help, though.But… how did they even know the precise room to come?“This is quite tricky,” the strange woman whispers. “You need to be calm, Heaven, so I don’t hurt you both.”Heaven shakes her head, looking back at intervals from the man behind her to the woman before her.She can sense that the woman is a witch, and that the man is a soldier—a wicked one—due to his rigid expressio

Chapter: An Overturned TrialTWO DAYS LATER.The pack’s prison is set in a valley. It’s a really wide, ten-story structure with nothing except the empty rooms, the bars, the muddy floors, the darkness, and the stink of dust and mud in each room.Zeedar’s sitting cross-legged on the floor in one of these rooms, resting against the wall with his eyes closed. He hears the prison main door creak open before his sharp hearing picks up the slowly approaching footsteps.He can tell it’s the Alpha from the rhythm of the footfalls, and as they stop in front of his prison room, he sighs.“What exactly is my charge?” he groans. “I know you cannot punish me with the truth. That would expose your secrets.”The sides of Ziason’s lips tip up a little as he leans sideways against the prison bars. “The pack will have to believe whatever I say.” He flashes a torch on his brother’s face. The ambassador doesn’t open his eyes. The latter doesn’t flutter either. “I’ll punish you on account of treason—working with the enemy. After all

Chapter: Cruel MatingMoon’s Wrath Pack.The horrible smell stopped a few hours after the incident, but it doesn’t leave Heaven’s mind. Even the sight of it still lingers, as well as the sensations of Ziason’s grip as he pressed into her rear while forcing her to see the view.She has been sitting by her bed for a long time, still facing the window. Except, it’s the sky she’s staring at even though she can’t see much of it. She watched the sun’s ray shine into the room through the window, and she watched the afternoon go by. She also watched the sun descend, and now she’s seeing nothing but a gloomy night sky.Even as the door opens to let in her new handmaid, who sets food on the table and leaves, Heaven doesn’t spare her one glance. The girl came in the afternoon too to prepare her bath. A bath she didn’t bother having since.She’ll avoid her with every ounce of blood left in her. That’s the vow she told herself. A vow she’s determined to keep.Right now, she can think of nothing but Lakri and her fam

Chapter: To Hurt, To ProtectAs Ziason makes his way down the staircase, he realizes that on this long run where he’s slowly falling for Heaven, it’s best to keep his distance to protect her.What she said was right. When Kaicha is discovered, it would put her in great danger merely because she belonged to him. But Heaven didn’t realize even she herself can be in danger just by being his mate. Forget about Kaicha, his enemies will focus more on scouting around for Heaven to kill her, knowing how killing his mate would affect him.So, to keep her safe, and keep him sane, it’s best he does this to prevent her from leaving the tower in the name of escaping or seeing the world. She’s best protected when she’s under his control and in the tower.It’s serves them both well.Zechariah meets him on the stairs just when he lands the staircase to the bottom floor. The man reeks of smoke.“Would you mind if I go with you to the meeting?” the pack’s delight asks. “Zeedar is already waiting.” Ziason nods. And they both qui
