LYSSANDRA I keep thinking this man cannot get any worse, and he somehow finds a way to convince me that he can in fact, do that. “Sit down, Cade.” Nathan commands him. “You should be ashamed.” “Well, I am not. She needs to hear the truth.” Cade mutters. When no one supports him, he loses steam. Even Arch is not foolish enough to openly support him in front of Erden.Erden shoves back his chair, stands, and lifts Cade clear off the ground with one hand. He drags him to the door and throws him out with a clear warning. “If I see you again, I'll kill you.”He shuts the door in his face, returns to the table and sits, watching me furtively. He doesn't ask if I'm fine, and I don't need him to. I'm used to Cade bringing up my family every time I make a decision he doesn't agree with. It's his way of manipulating my feelings, of telling me that I'm behaving crazily. I stand shakily. “It is agreed then. Mr. Kryne is the new CEO.” No one argues or tries to speak. I stand and walk awa

LYSSANDRA The flutters in my stomach must not be from butterflies because I feel as though I'll throw up. Erden’s blue eyes are suddenly a dark, empty blue colour that I want to throw up. He backs away from me. “Why would you ask me that? Your father and I weren't that close.”“But your father and him were, Erden. Will you stop lying to me after all these years?” He doesn't answer me. Instead, he leads the way to the same conference room we used the last time. He's ignoring me and it pisses me off. But he's also storming ahead of me. I don't catch up to him until he opens the door and holds it, waiting for me to step in. It doesn't escape my notice how despite being angry, he still does this. This man is a walking contradiction. “Don't ever mention your father to me again, or I will disappear and you will never see me again.” Erden hisses at me. I gulp, becoming just as angry at his words. “He was my father! How can you ask a thing like that from me?!” “Your choice, Lys.”

ERDENThe chef is hanging from the ceiling. His face is devoid of all emotions, and the dungeon casts shadows on his face. His lips are split, and his eyes are almost swollen shut. They're a deep blue color and he hacks out a cough, trying to double up to shield his stomach as Aksel punches again. “He's going to kill him.” Trent mutters, leaning against the wall beside me.“He's a stone cold murderer. He deserves to die.” “Lyssandra might want to speak to him.” “Why would she do that?” “Because he was poisoning her? Erden, stop thinking like a cave fucking man.”The last thing I'm doing is behaving like one. And Trent is dumb if he really believes Lys wants to spend another second in the company of a man who wanted to kill her. “And didn't you say it was Cade? Why isn't he hanging up here?”Cade didn't know a thing. Farouk went into his phones and computers, and there was nothing there even showing he had any communications with his chef. I had hoped it was him. Hell, I would

LYSSANDRA “Is this the right way to treat your sick wife?” Erden asks him. “This is between my wife and I. You shouldn't interfere, Erden. You've already done enough harm.” Cade insists. “He's done enough harm? I just got back from the hospital, and your welcome back is a punch to my face?” I want to slap that angry look off his face, but I honestly don't care enough to. The fact that he is capable of putting his hands on me only disgusts me further. “You disrespected me, Lyssandra. That video of me begging is going viral. I'm the CEO. How does that make me look?” He thunders at me. “I'm the one who made you CEO, Cade.” My brows furrow. Doesn't he hear how whiny he sounds? Like a little boy who has lost a toy he didn't even want in the first place?“Apologize and get out of my sight, Cade.” Erden says coldly. “I will not apologize to her. Who are you to ask me to? She should be apologizing to me.”Erden steps toward Cade, and he shrinks back against the wall, bringing up his

LYSSANDRA It's Uncle Nathan. He shifts and sits beside me. He takes my hand in his gently, but I yank it back, glaring at him. “What are you doing here, Nathan?” He grimaces at my tone. “I heard…I heard about what happened with Cade.” He meant Cade making a fool of himself in front of everyone. “What does that have to do with me?” Nathan’s eyes fill with worry. “I know you're mad at me, Lyssandra. But since your father died, you can testify that I've only done what I thought was best for you.”I'm unable to disagree with that. After Father's death, I had moved in with Nathan and his wife for years, while I rebuilt the house which was burnt to the floor. “I'm sorry I called you a… that name at Erden’s house. I was just surprised.” “That's not an excuse to disrespect me that way.” I'm not in the right frame of mind to argue with my uncle. I've just found out someone has been slowly poisoning me, the last thing I need is another argument with my uncle.“What do you want, Nathan?”

LYSSANDRA My head feels like someone took a drill to it while I was sleeping. And even worse is the white light stabbing my eyes when I wake up. I close my eyes and I try to sit up, but a pair of hands press me back into the bed. “The doctor hasn't said you can move.” The voice sounds vaguely familiar, and when I hear the snap of the light switch going off, I force my eyes open again. Erden is leaning over my bed. His eyes are cold and blank, and he lifts a pillow which he placed under my head to lift it a bit. “I have to get to work. My serum…” “You haven't even asked what happened to you, Lyssandra.” He interrupts me coldly, pulling a chair closer. Erden settles into the chair, and his eyes narrow. His shirt has been pulled over his fore arm, and his hair is rumpled, maybe from running his hands through it multiple times. What's he doing here? And I know what happened to me. It's the rot. I've gone a few weeks without it. I was lucky to have that much time. “Where's Docto
