Ava's POV

The days leading up to the ball were a controlled blur. It was all work for me, and I soon fell into a routine. Thankfully, it wasn't that hard since I'd been doing it during my life as Ava.

Once I woke up in the morning, I headed over to the head maid and spent almost the whole day with her—planning, budgeting, and cross-checking—as she let me take the reins for this particular ball, intending to familiarise me with my obligated duties. Lyanna shadowed me all day regardless of my rigorous schedule and put herself in charge of making sure I ate at the perfect intervals and ended my day at the exact hour to get some early rest.

It was almost unreal to be treated with that much care while doing considerably less physical activity than I did when I was Ava.

Evenings were spent settling the accounts.

I wasn't much of a scholar as Ava, but I had basic education and was given a quick and easy crash course in finances and accounting, so it wasn't exactly difficult—if I didn't ac

  • COME BACK OF THE SCARFACE PRINCESS    I loved You

    Corvin's POV I saw out Ben and Vivian, following them downstairs and escorting them to their car as we chatted briefly. I was unable to take my eyes off them as it made me uncomfortable to see the way Ben had his arm wrapped around Vivian's shoulder. He also seemed to be quite affectionate towards her, asking her how she was feeling almost every minute as we walked.The jealousy I felt only increased every second I spent with them.Vivian had introduced him as a friend and judging from his lack of reaction to that, I could tell that she wasn't lying. I just don't trust Ben's presence.I don't know if he truly only sees Vivian as a friend and with how hands on he's been with her since he hugged her, I was sure there was more to it for him."Oh, Corvin," Ben turned to me like he just remembered something. "What can I give to reward you for taking care of her? I can understand that it can be tasking to care for a stranger you know almost nothing about? I would like to do something to

  • COME BACK OF THE SCARFACE PRINCESS    Quit That

    Corvin's POVThe mere utterance of those words had put the whole room in a tense mood that day. Linda's face darkened and Vivian narrowed her eyes while I simply kept my poker face, choosing to observe rather than react."How can we be sure that you both are not the traitors working together to ruin while acting like our allies?" Linda asked with a deep frown etched unto her face. "Personally, I don't trust you two one bit."Vivian gave her a deadpan glare in response."Look no one is after your husband. I'm only helping out.""Maybe because those bastards killed my father, ruined my life and I've been locked in freaking white room while battling with my mental stability while all of this was going on! Is that enough reason?"Vivian seemed taken aback by her outburst but didn't reply to her. Instead, she turned her attention to me."I don't trust you.""I know that," I replied. "You don't like me either, anything else, Luna?" "I'm pretty sure you are the culprit," she hissed. "I know

  • COME BACK OF THE SCARFACE PRINCESS    When Life Crumbles

    TEN MONTHS AGOAvala's POV The past few days since my altercation with Corvin went by uneventfully. I avoided any interaction with people throughout these days. Living in isolation helped me think about a lot of things and I needed to think since my altercation with Corvin has caused my thoughts to be all jumbled up and made me quite a wreck.I've never seen Corvin like that. He has surprised me a few times by showing emotions I thought he was incapable of expressing, but he has never been that shaken before. I understand that he must be troubled with all the information we got from Jace, that vile bitch, but I can't help but think that a huge part of it had to do with me. And that kiss......It's been so long since I've felt his lips. I could never forget the feel of his lips but I was still mesmerized by them when our lips connected. And that annoys me.I should hate Darrell. He's living his life with a woman who warms his bed whenever he wants while I'm stuck here longing for h

  • COME BACK OF THE SCARFACE PRINCESS    True Colors

    Lyanna's POV"Ugh," I groaned at the sound of those words. The last thing I wanted right now was having to meet anyone after getting into my residence."She's coming upstairs, sir," Soren said and the door opened slightly as the familiar blue eyes peeked in. "Busy?" she asked from the door."It's not like you care if you came all the way up here without asking first," I sighed as I sat up. "What do you want?""Brought you some food," she smiled, walking in and revealing herself completely. She was dressed in a strapless short black gown, that exposed a good portion of her cleavage and barely covered her ass. She also had a flask which apparently contains the food."Which one is it?" I asked. "You or the flask?"She looked behind her at Cara who still stood at the door waiting for an order. "You can leave now, Cara. Go get some rest.""Oh, yes, ma'am," Cara nodded and hurried away. "You can choose," she said looking back at me. "Just keep your primal instincts in check and don't mark

    Avala's POVFlashbackI laid back on my bed when my phone rang and to my pleasant surprise, it was Dravin who was calling."Hey, Dravin," I said excitedly. "How have you been? It's been a while since we talked.""Yeah," he replied. "I've been okay, and I'm sorry I took so long to call. I've had a lot going on since the last time I saw you.""I understand," I laughed it off. "So, how has things been for you?""I should be asking you that," he replied. "You're the one who was in a pretty precarious situation the last time we met. How has things been? Is Ben making good of his promise to protect you?" "He's trying his best," I shrugged. "He isn't omniscient, you know, and he's a busy man too. He can't watch over me 24/7. But I'm handling myself just fine so you have nothing to worry about.""I need to make sure of it," he replied. "I wanna see you again and be sure that you are okay. We should go out today.""Oh," I smiled. "Are you asking me out, Dravin""Just for a wellness check," he

  • COME BACK OF THE SCARFACE PRINCESS    Instincts Of A Demon

    Dravin's POV Curiousity consumed me and overrode my instinct of caution as I wondered what the identity of the lady who contacted me was, what she wanted with me and why exactly she chose to contact me.Dashing outside to my car, I got in and drove off to the address she texted me. It was awfully far from town and I became increasingly suspicious and my caution was beginning to surface as I got farther from town and closer to her address.I eventually got to the home and I was dumbstruck by the opulence and extravagance it exuded. The magnificent structure dwarfed my home in all aspects, making it look no more than a middle class abode despite our wealth. It seemed like a building fit for royalty. Only kings and queens could possibly think of building suchab regally extravagant structure. Or some stupidly rich person with more money than they knew what to with. A luxury I do have but don't think I understand on this scale.Shaking off my initial shock, I drove into the compound wh
