ELINNA

I stayed quiet through out the time Lizzy took me up to the first floor.

She told me the names and department of all the employees that passed and I watched as they greeted her with a good smile.

It showed that she was a good boss.

”I hope I didn't make you miss your meeting. It's past nine am.”

She looked at her watch.

“I told them I was having breakfast with the CEO so we moved it.”

The elevator opened and we stepped out into our floor.

She pointed across the hall way.

“That’s your office. This is mine on this side. Do you want to see your office?”

Looking at it from afar, I did want to go in it buy on second thought, I could wait.

“Let’s go to yours.”

A young girl greeted her as we passed and I figured that was the receptionist for this floor.

“Welcome go my office. Have a seat anywhere you want. Because you will be doing a lot of work today. There's a new I vestor in the market. i hear he's rich. I'm not talking new money, those people have too little. I'm talking, old mone

    ELINNAI took a deep breath. It felt like I was writing an exam and I had the questions right in front of me and I didn't know anything. There were actually a lot of things I wanted to ask but I wasn't privileged to do that so I just had to think. Three questions. One request. “The Book of Knowledge. The last page, what was written on it and why was it torn out?”The trio laughed..“She’s trying to be smart. That's two questions, honey so you have to choose so be smart about it.”Shit. I didn't even realize that. “What was written on the last page of the Book of knowledge?” Crimson looked at both her sisters. “You give us a lot of credit. What makes you think we have read the book? I'm surprised that you have even laid eyes on it. Some people spent their entire lives trying to prove it existed.”Wow. So they hadn't read the book. Ice did tell me that though. I just thought that since they were so respected and feared and they had been around for centuries, they would know about

    ELINNA“Do you think Carlisle would have noticed that we were gone by now?” We had been walking for four hours now. And I was hungry, tired and sleep deprived. To make matters worse, I didn't want to tell Lawrence that I didn't know where we were going. Initially, I did but after a while, I lost the way and right now, I think we were walking in circles. “Is it just me or does that tree look familiar?” I didn't dare turn around to look at him because I knew that we had surely passed through this place and I had lost the way. Maybe if we just keep walking around like that, we'll eventually realise where we're going. I pray we find that fast before Lawrence realizes that something is wrong. “Lawrence, is there water somewhere in your bag? My throat's getting kinda-”“Here, let me check.” I was panting heavily and my body felt like falling to the ground but I just couldn't help it. He handed me the water and I tipped my head back, downing as much as I could like a camel out in th

    CARLISLEI'd just woken up when I heard a knock on my door. The book I'd been reading last night fell from my hand and I ignored it to open the door. It would most definitely be Gomez coming to tell me that we had something to do today. At this point, everyday was a weekday to me because I always had something to do. “Good morning, My King.” I was surprised to see Alex at my door but with the way he was holding his laptop, I could see the urgency in his eyes and I moved away so he could walk in. “What’s going on? What news do you have?” He set his laptop down and began to type on it and then he turned the screen to me. “Lawrence asked me to look at footage of the accident because he wanted to know who had caused the accident. He didn't think the police would take it seriously, especially with everything that's going on. I just got hands on the footage.” The footage was exactly five minutes. Halfway through the clip, my heart sank because that was when Elinna's car got stuck and

    ELINNA“Lawrence-”He laughed but it wasn't coming from a place of amusement. “Scarlett, you are a wonderful person and you've shown me more love than I thought was possible. You and the King made me realize that there are still good people on earth. I just wish things were different.”As I looked into his eyes, I didn't want to believe he was saying what I thought he was saying. “Lawrence, what do you mean? What are you saying?”“In a way, I wish the King was right. He saw it coming from a mile away but I think he wanted to deny it for the sake of peace. The King will have my head if he finds out about this though. I love you, Scarlet. I love who you are behind closed doors, away from all the glam and noise. I love who you are when no one else is around. I know it's never going to happen and we're never going to get our own story but if I didn't say anything to you, I felt like I might die.” As he finished talking, I felt very dumbfounded. I'd never not known what to say before bu

    ELINNAHere I was with myself at three in the morning, trying to navigate the deep woods with injuries from the car crash and a headache. After my conversation with Ice, we had both decided that it was best to take that step rather than just sitting and letting things happen. Before I left, I called Keisan and told him that I was going to be going away for a little while and they may not see me. “Where are you going?” I opened my mouth to tell him.but then I remembered that he was still a demon and that meant that he could still be manipulated. And they could still get to him. If that happened, then I was as good as dead..Then, I called Gomez and did the same thing..“You called me and told me. Why didn't you tell Carlisle?” I was silent because I didn't want to talk about what happened. It was embarrassing and I didn't know if he would take his brother's side. But of course, he already knew what happened. “Carlisle told me what happened. You know he didn't mean all those thing

    CARLISLEAs I got back home, I plopped down on the couch and just tested my head. On the entire drive back here, my mind was filled with crazy thoughts that wanted to consume my insides. I knew that the accusations were insane and Elinna had assured me time and time again that she would never cheat on me. Fact was, even if she didn't, I trusted her and I knew that she surely won't cheat on me. But I couldn't deny the fact that I felt like something was going on behind the scenes and I wasn't aware of it. The fact that she had gone off with him without informing me or anyone, the way she was worried when he was unconscious which is honestly understandable and the fact that the fight that they had made her a shadow of herself..I didn't even know what the fight was about so I couldn't even take sides. They could be having relationship issues for all I knew. Pain shot through my heart as I said those words. I didn't even want to imagine it. Gomez had been standing on the stairs and l
