“Ezra… What have I done?” Louelita’s voice was hoarse from crying, her throat raw from the sobs she had been holding in for hours. Her hands trembled as she clutched Ezra’s arm, her nails digging into his skin as though anchoring herself to him would stop the world from crashing down around her.

Ezra, unfazed by the panic in her voice, simply cupped her face with both hands, his thumbs gently wiping the tears that streamed down her cheeks. His sharp blue eyes, usually cold and calculating, softened as he looked at her.

“You did what was right, Vita Mia.” His voice was steady, full of certainty. “And now, it’s my turn to take care of everything.”

Louelita shook her head, fresh tears spilling onto his fingers. “But… but Ezra, you don’t understand! I didn’t just expose corrupt politicians in the Philippines—I handed over files that could bring down entire governments! Illegal arms trades, human trafficking routes, drug syndicates… I connected the dots, and now those bastards know I’m the

    “Mama!” Louelita turned at the sound of the tiny, excited voice. As soon as she saw Louie running toward her with open arms, she bent down and embraced him. His laughter was pure and light, filling the grand Velleotti estate with warmth.Her heart is also filled with happiness having Louie here. She feels like the child that had been taken away from them by fate was filled by Louie. “My sweet boy,” she murmured, kissing his forehead. “Did you have fun today?”Louie nodded excitedly. “I played with Uncle Primo and Uncle Vito! We built a castle in the garden!”Ezra, watching them from a few feet away, smirked. “A castle? Who was the king?”Louie puffed out his chest proudly. “Me!”Ezra chuckled. “Then I assume you ruled wisely?”Louie grinned. “Of course! Uncle Primo was my knight, and Uncle Vito was the princess. We had a feast and everything!”Inizio and Elio, who was guarding Louelita burst out laughing as they heard and imagine what Louie told his parents. But, when Ezra looked at

    “Ezra!” Louelita’s voice cracked as she screamed his name. She panicked. Her breathing was uneven, her pulse racing as confusion clouded her mind. She couldn't see. Everything was dark. A blindfold covered her eyes, leaving her vulnerable, lost in an unfamiliar place.Panic clawed at her chest. Her hands trembled as she instinctively reached forward, only to find nothing but air.“Hey, calm down! Nothing bad will happen to you.” The voice beside her said.“Inizio!” she cried, her voice sharp with fear. “Where am I? Where’s Ezra?”“Calm down, okay?” Inizio's voice came from somewhere to her left. It was steady, but it did little to ease her anxiety.“Calm down?” she echoed, shaking her head. “I can’t see! I don’t know what’s happening! Where is Ezra?” She asked again. Another voice joined them—Elio. “Just trust us, Queen Lou. You’ll understand soon.”That didn’t comfort her. Her heart pounded against her ribs as the ground beneath her vibrated slightly. The steady hum told her one th

    “Where is he?” Louelita’s voice trembled slightly as she stepped inside the orphanage. Her heart pounded against her chest, a mix of excitement, fear, and longing flooding through her veins.Sister Faith’s warm eyes softened as she looked at the young woman in front of her. “He’s in his room, just as always. He barely speaks. He doesn't even play with the other children.”Louelita’s grip on Ezra’s hand tightened.She already knew. Ezra had told her everything.Her little brother—the only family she had left—had shut himself away from the world. He was only two years old, yet already broken in ways that no child should ever be and their parents did this just like what she experienced before. Her heart clenched painfully.“He’ll be okay,” Ezra murmured beside her, his voice firm and reassuring. “You’re here now.”Louelita turned to him, searching his piercing blue eyes for strength. As always, she found it there. Unwavering. Solid. She nodded.Then she took a deep breath, trying to ste

    “P-Please… I’m begging you—”A hoarse, pitiful voice cracked in the cold, damp prison owned by Ezra Slain Velleotti. The sound barely held strength, but the desperation was unmistakable. This was a countless beg Ezra heard but, he didn’t mind. Ezra sat comfortably in his chair, leaning forward slightly, resting his elbows on his knees. His sharp, calculating eyes were fixed on the woman trembling before him. The very woman who had once called herself his mother.He could’t end their lives just yet. They need severe punishment before he can end them. His mother’s breathing was uneven and labored. The iron collar tightly wrapped around her throat was spiked on the inside, piercing her flesh with even the slightest movement. Dried blood had crusted along the edges, a stark contrast against her pale skin.She could barely hold herself upright. Every breath, every slight shift sent waves of excruciating pain through her body.But Ezra? He looked unmoved. Unaffected. Why would he?“You’re

  • Behind Him   Chapter 39

    Ezra stood in the dark lit underground prison, his presence suffocating, like the devil himself had descended upon the condemned. A cruel smirk twisted his lips as he surveyed the pathetic figures before him. If he had the time and the patience, he would have made them his personal grotesque experiment—perhaps something as twisted as a human centipede. But no, he had other plans for them. Plans that would carve their suffering into the very fabric of their existence.Louelita’s parents… They would die here. He had no interest in dragging out their suffering. Their mere presence in this chamber, under his watch, was torture enough. But for the others? Oh, he would ensure that each of them felt special as they met their demise, especially the two bastards who had defiled his Vita Mia—the men whose depravity had taken the life of his unborn child.His orders had been clear: imprison them. His men had carried out the command without hesitation, forcing these wretched creatures to straddl
