LOGINEzra Slain Velleoti is a man that everyone wants to avoid. He's a tough enemy. A mafia boss who disapproves of almost everyone. Anyone who gets in his way will never make it out alive. Khione Louelita Silay is a woman who is socially awkward. A person who has socially anxiety and dislikes crowds and other people's opinions. She is a nerd who prefers to work and stay at home. Working as a top counterintelligence agent for the NBI, Khione was unintentionally able to uncover the dark secrets of some government officials. Khione desperately wanted to flee, but she couldn't until they killed her, and Ezra, the notorious Mafia boss, was the only one who save her.
View MoreThe morning it happened, nobody noticed at first. That was appropriate.The best changes in the north house rarely arrived with speeches or anything dramatic enough to deserve witnesses. They came disguised as inconvenience, noise, crumbs, missing socks, two children arguing over a pencil sharpener as if inheritance law were involved, or Rosa muttering the names of saints under her breath because someone—almost certainly Eiji—had brought mud into the kitchen and then denied the existence of weather.This morning began with bread. Burnt bread, specifically. Ezra was responsible.Louelita knew that before she had even opened her eyes fully because the smell drifting through the upstairs hall had none of Rosa’s authority in it. Rosa burned nothing unless the world was ending, and even then she would probably apologize to the pan.This was a man’s mistake. A confident one. A man who had underestimated heat because he was reading a briefing while claiming to “watch the toast.”She sat up i
The first time all of the children fit around one table, the house nearly lost the argument with itself.Not because the table was too small, but because adulthood was.That was the truth of it, Louelita thought as she stood in the kitchen doorway and watched chaos slowly gather shape in the dining room. The space had once belonged to polished dinners, donor-perfect flowers, carefully folded napkins, and adults who knew exactly which fork to use while discussing things they preferred to keep respectable. Now it belonged, correctly, to jam, soup, sharpened pencils, missing socks, mismatched bowls, and children who had absolutely no interest in maintaining the dignity of furniture.Ezra stood beside her with one hand tucked into his pocket and the other holding a plate Rosa had told him to carry several minutes ago. Somehow, despite possessing the organizational ability to move entire operations without losing track of a single detail, he had still not managed to set it down.“You’re bl
The first person Noel trusted with silence was not Louelita.It was not Rosa either.It was Louie, and that surprised almost everyone except Louelita. She had been watching the shape of the house more carefully than the adults around her realized, paying attention not only to who the children approached but also to whom they allowed themselves to simply exist beside. Somewhere along the way, she had begun to understand that frightened children often trusted people in the middle before they trusted the obvious centers of safety.Louie lived in the middle.He was not fully a child anymore, but he was not fully an adult either. He was not soft in the theatrical way some grown-ups tried to be when children frightened them, coating every word in sweetness until kindness itself began to feel suspicious. Neither was he armed with authority, at least not the kind that announced itself in doorways and changed the air simply by entering.Louie was just there.He was on sofas, in hallways, at th
The trouble began with a form.That, Louelita would later insist, was how all the worst adult ideas entered rooms meant for children. They rarely arrived through shouting or open cruelty anymore. Those things were too obvious, too easy to recognize for what they were.The dangerous ideas came quietly.They came through paperwork.It was raining that afternoon in the soft, determined way the season preferred, steady enough to silver the back windows but light enough that the children could still hear one another over it if they argued properly. Water threaded slowly down the glass, blurring the garden beyond into green and gray.The dining room had long since stopped functioning as an actual dining room. Occupation had transformed it into a worktable, an art station, a negotiation zone, and occasionally a battlefield over whose pencil had been whose first. Crayons lived there permanently now, along with soup stains, half-finished reading sheets, folded paper animals, and one chipped gr
“Get out of my way!”Ezra’s furious voice boomed through the hall, his sharp, commanding tone slicing through the chaos like a blade. He was charging forward, his long strides fueled by urgency, his pulse hammering against his skin. His heart clenched at the sight of the carnage left behind. Bodies
“Is that how you greet your mother after twenty-five long years?” The woman’s voice dripped with sarcasm, her lips curling into a taunting smile. The statement made Ezra’s jaw clench tightly, his grip on Louelita's hand growing rigid. His entire body radiated fury, muscles coiled like a predator re
“I can’t let other people see me, especially those who know me… I’ll only put them in danger! I will drag them into this mess, and I cannot bear that in my conscience.” She said, barely whisper.Louelita’s voice wavered, her emotions cracking through every syllable. Her fists clenched tightly on he
Omar hesitated, gripping his phone tightly, his voice unsure as he spoke. “B-But, Boss—”Ezra's patience was extremely limited. He didn’t have time for objections. “Are you questioning my decisions, Omar?” His voice pierced the phone like a sharp instrument.Immediately, Omar shook his head, though
