Chapter: Chapter 54Lukas:I took one last glance at Mia who was fast asleep on the bed before shutting the door. Earlier, she was on the verge of losing control and we had to sedate her.Micheal appeared behind me, a gloomy look on his face. “The servant girl Mia brought back tried to run but we caught her before she could escape. She's currently in the cell.“You think she did this?” Kate asked incredulously.“She ran away immediately it happened. I guess that is enough answer”I headed down to my study, both of them in tow.“How could this happen under your watch?” I asked without turning to look at them. “I was distracted for a bit” he admitted, releasing a deep breath. I spun sharply. “Oh yeah. I bet you and Kate were too busy banging to realize something was going on”His expression turned fierce. “You were under strict orders to watch her closely”“You can't blame this entirely on us. It was Mia who brought in a girl who she barely knew and you allowed it. Now look where it's got us. You all

Chapter: Chapter 53Mia:After our date, Lukas pulled up in the driveway. I was about to alight when he held my wrist in a firm but gentle grip. “What?’ “I know what you're worried about”I raised a brow. Has he found out already? “You do?”“But don’t worry. I made sure the seer won't say a word”Thank goddess. He didn't know.“You can't be sure about that”“He knows what will happen if he ever disobeys my orders. I promised to protect you and I intend to make good on that promise. No matter the cost” He whispered with such certainty that I actually believed him.Warmth spread across my chest. I reached into my purse and brought out the velvet box. “I got something for you. Open it”He took it with a smile and popped it open.“Turn it over” He did and his smile turned wider when he saw the inscriptions on it.“I had our initials engraved on it”“LM. Always and forever. Thoughtful. I love it”He leaned in, my lips brushing against his Ina gentle kiss. “I love you Mia”“I love you too”The world arou

Chapter: Chapter 52Mia:Gathered in Lukas' study, Kate, Michael and I watched on with bated breath as the seer carefully examined his arm. The mark was gone like it was never there. “You've been silent. Aren't you going to say something?” Lukas asked, impatience dancing in his eyes.“The scar is indeed gone”“Yes. Everyone can see that. Does that mean the curse is lifted?” I held my breath, waiting for his answer.“It appears so” he replied. I released a breath of relief. I looked up to see the see the seer staring at me in suspicion. I quickly looked away. “But how could that happen? You were so certain your suggestion was the only way” Michael spoke.“Perhaps, the moon goddess has shown him mercy” I snickered inwardly. If only they knew.“Well, this was unexpected” Kate said and whispered in my ear. “Can you believe this?”I smiled as wide as I could. “I can't”“I would take my leave now” The seer bowed and left, Kate followed, then Micheal until there was only two of us left. Though I could fee

Chapter: Chapter 51Kate:I rounded a corner to see a girl leave one of the rooms. My brows furrowed. I had never seen her before. Micheal appeared behind me.“Who is that girl?” I said, watching her back as she retreated down the hallway.“A new maid. Mia brought her back”“Do they know each other?”“I have no idea” I looked on thoughtfully till I felt Michael's eyes boring holes inside me.I crossed my arms. “What do you want?”“You” his face held a hint of a smile.I stared at him like he had just grown two heads.“You are one shameless asshole. You know that, right? You think you can just waltz back into my life like nothing happened? You walk around like everything is okay, but it's not” a bitter laugh escaped my lips. “Do you have any idea how much your rejection hurt”He opened his mouth to speak but I cut him off.“Don't. Don't say a word” My voice cracked. “I thought we cared about each other. I thought I was something to you but I was wrong. I learn that the hard way”His jaw ticked. “Kate….

Chapter: Chapter 50Mia:My eyes fluttered open. My vision cleared up seconds later and for a while, my mind was empty, a loud ringing in my ear and the strained sound of my breathing.“Are you awake?” I turned to see Mira seated beside my bed. “What happened?” I asked. I glanced at my carefully bandaged hand where I had stabbed.I jolted up, wincing as a sharp pain shot through my head.“What about the curse? Is it broken?” I asked eagerly.Mira sighed “We don't know that yet”“Oh no. Did I mess things up?”“No. You did well. It might take a few days before we can be certain”My heart lurched painfully. “Take me back” “You are still weak. Look at yourself, you can barely stand”“Please just take me back! I want to see Lukas”Mira studied me and for a moment, I thought she would refuse.She nodded and muttered. “Okay”She took a deep breath while I closed my eyes, opening them to find myself staring at the familiar ceiling of the master bedroom. Kate hovered above me, worried.I hoisted myself up, not

Chapter: Chapter 49Mia:I stepped out of the shower, putting on my bathrobe. Lukas was gone. He had left before I woke up.I grabbed the blow-dryer and settled before the vanity.I looked into the mirror, realizing I wasn't alone in the room. Seated on the sofa was a red head, her legs crossed, staring at me. I jerked up with a start. “Goddess, Mira! What are you doing here?”“Well, that is an odd question. I'm your master” For the past few weeks, I went through rigorous magic training, and so far it was working. Never would I have thought that one day, magic would come so easily to me. However, the only problem I had was Mira. Whenever it was time for training, she would appear at the most inconvenient time. Once, she appeared while Lukas and I were about to make love.“Haven't you heard of the word privacy?” I asked through gritted teeth and a forced smile.She grimaced. “What is that? Is it food?”I released a sharp breath, my face flushed from anger. I ignored her and went back to drying my hai

Chapter: Epilogue "Do you take Edward Beau to be your lawfully wedded husband?" "Yes, I do" she said. She hadn't realized the priest had asked Edward first due to her nervousness.They exchanged vows and rings."You may now kiss the bride" Before the priest could finish speaking, he already captured her lips in a heated kiss. She smacked him on his arm before he finally let go. More shouts of excitement filled the air."I love you" he muttered, his forehead resting on hers. "I love you too" "Congratulations boss" Dana said, Brick was beside her. She had given up on trying to make him fall in love with her. She was going to move on and be happy."Congratulations" Brick said. He was satisfied with the fact that she was happy. That was enough for him.Edward and Lily left the party as a newly wedded couple. It was night when they arrived. They faced each other on the bed. She knew what was going to happen next, and felt shy even though they had done it several times. She was in a saying white gown wit

Chapter: Chapter 37 Lily entered the Savage mansion. She had ordered one of the servants to inform her when it was just Silvia in the house.She didn't bother to knock and barged into the room. Silvia shrieked at the intruder and let out a sigh of relief when she realized it was Lily."Don't you know how to knock?" She questioned angrily. Lily crossed her arms, and made herself comfortable on a sofa. She smiled."Need I remind you that this place officially belongs to me now. I can send you out whenever I want to, so behave" Silvia glared at her. She regretted ever hiring an incompetent assassin. "I came here for something very important. I don't want to spend a long time here. I have some questions for you"Silvia scoffed and rolled her eyes, "What makes you so sure I will answer you?" Lily ignored her and continued. "Why did you kill my mother?"Silvia laughed. "You need to get yourself checked in case you are going insane. Everybody knows your mother died of bronchiectasis" Lily sighed. "I suggest

Chapter: Chapter 36She drove away in a sour mood. Though she had readied herself that Marie could really be Rupert's child, she was still sorely disappointed.She picked up her phone when it rang."Hello Miss Savage. Can you come back to the hospital, please? It is very urgent" It was the doctor who had done the test. She did a U-turn in the direction of the hospital. "I am so sorry, Miss Savage. I gave you the wrong paternity test results. Can you give it back, please?" Indeed, she didn't know the names there. She returned it, and he gave her the right one."I'm truly sorry" "It's alright"She opened the paper and was stunned.Probability of paternity: 0%She threw her head back and laughed in happiness. Silvia and Marie. Those worthless humans. It was over for them.************"Why have you called us here?" A shareholder asked impatiently. Rupert almost snapped, but he reminded himself he had to gain their sympathy. If only he had not lost his position, they wouldn't dare disrespect him this way.

Chapter: Chapter 35"I am on my way to your place, Nana" she said, on the phone with Nana. Just as Edward had predicted, she felt extremely guilty and sorry when she learned her dad tried to kill her, just because she knew their secret."I missed you so.......ah!" She screamed as she felt a car bump into her from behind multiple times. She had forgotten to wear her seatbelt and hit her against the steering wheel. She became dizzy, and her head bled."Lily! Are you alright?" Nana asked worried on the end. The car didn't stop wrecking havoc on hers. It was a bit bigger and was fortified, so it had not even a single cent. The driver, who was in black sunglasses, and face cap, drove forward and peered into her car. He found her slumped against the wheel, her head was stained with blood. He then drove away.Nana ended the phone when she heard no sound coming from the other end and called Edward, explaining everything to him. He sprang up in the middle of the meeting and ran out. His hands on the wheel shook

Chapter: Chapter 34Jayden drove crazily towards the hotel in mad rage. He stormed into the elevator, heading towards the room. The room number was included in the message. He didn't knock, and burst in. The sight that greeted him had blue veins popping in his head. Marie was on her knees naked, giving a stinking old man a blow job."Marie!" He bellowed. She scrambled up when she realized he was there. "Jay..... Jayden? What.....you…." She had no idea what to say. It was sudden. "You have been cheating on me" he narrowed his eyes dangerously. She shook her head."No. I…. I did it for you and your company. If it was failing and…. and he offered to help""Helping me by fucking another man?" Suddenly, out of nowhere, a slap landed on her face. She screamed and she saw stars. She fell immediately."So you are the one. You are the bitch sleeping with my husband!" She screeched. Marie looked up. Towering over her was an ugly fat woman, with thick makeup. She wore expensive jewelry. She didn't need anyone t

Chapter: Chapter 33"Success!" She texted her husband the moment she entered the elevator. He replied almost immediately."Hm. Congratulations. Meet me at the entrance" She raised a brow. That fast?She saw him as soon as she reached outside."I am so honored to have esteemed president Savage in my car" she chuckled. "It was all because of your lawyer. He did really well. Rupert could not win against him" she fastened her seatbelt, and noticed his face had become silky."What is it now?" "Stop praising another man other than me" he said sourly."Alright. Alright. I will keep that in mind from now on. All of this happened, thanks to you. Mr husband is the best!" she sealed it with a kiss, and pulled back when he was going to deepen it. "Are you happy now?" He nodded with a smile."What are you going to do now?" "I will take full care of my mum's company and destroy those imbeciles..... for good. Before I can do that, I need evidence. Solid evidence that Rupert killed my mum. I won't let him get away"
