Olivia

“Philip…” His name left my lips as he strode straight toward me in the quiet of my private garden, where the roses leaned heavy with dew and the air smelled faintly of jasmine. I barely had a second to react before his arms wrapped around me, and his mouth pressed to mine in a kiss so urgent it stole my breath.

“Philip…” I tried again, breathless when he finally pulled back just enough to rest his forehead against mine, our breaths colliding in the warm evening air.

“I couldn’t wait another second,” he murmured, his voice low and husky, vibrating straight through me. “I missed you so much. Do you know how many nights I’ve played this moment in my head? Being away from you for just one month was torture.”

My heart thudded against my ribs. Everything was too much all at once. Sebastian’s presence in the palace, my father’s endless schemes, and now Philip’s sudden arrival. I should have been relieved. I should have been happy. And I was… but not in the way I expected. Not in

    Olivia The first thing I heard was a broken voice whispering my name. "Oh my God... Olivia, you’re awake." My eyelids felt heavy as I turned my head to find Lucas sitting beside me. His fingers were wrapped around mine, his cheeks wet with tears he wasn’t even bothering to hide. The only word that left my dry lips was, "Sebastian..." I said it again, louder this time, as though repeating it might summon him to me. But the joy that had just lit up Lucas’s face melted into something sadder. His lips pressed together as if he was trying to hold back the truth. "Olivia... let’s not talk about that right now." My chest squeezed tight. That wasn’t an answer. That was avoidance. My heart nearly jumped out of my body, and in panic, I tried to push myself up, but pain exploded across every muscle. It felt like my bones were on fire, like my body didn’t belong to me anymore. Before I could even question him further, the door opened. A doctor entered with a face so unreadable it scared

    Olivia The first thing I heard was noise. At first, it was distant—muffled shouting, like echoes carried by the wind. But then it grew louder. Screams, crashing, metal clashing against metal. The sound of terror. My eyes flew open just as Sebastian stirred beside me. He was already on his feet before I could process what was happening. He yanked open the window, and my heart stopped. The night sky was drenched in smoke, flames roaring so high they painted the darkness orange. “We’re under attack,” Sebastian muttered. His voice was steady, but I could hear the edge of panic beneath it. He turned back to me, his grip firm as he took my trembling hands. “Stay here, Olivia. Do not leave this room. You’ll be safe here. I promise. I’ll come back for you.” He didn’t wait for me to argue. He was gone before my lips could form the word no. The room suddenly felt like a prison. My pulse pounded so hard it drowned out everything else. My nightgown clung to me, sticky against my skin, the h

    Olivia The grand hall shimmered with beauty, every corner dripping in elegance. Crystal chandeliers cast a golden glow across the marbled floor, and delicate petals trailed along the aisle. Yet, I barely noticed any of it. The weight of the gown clinging to my body made it almost impossible to breathe, and the veil that trailed behind me tugged at me like chains, heavy enough to make me stumble. Today was supposed to be the happiest day of my life. Today, I was marrying the man I had once thought completely out of reach. And there he stood, waiting for me at the altar. My chest tightened at the sight of him. Sebastian. Regal, commanding, every inch of him radiating the kind of power that could silence a crowd. He didn’t need to try—he simply existed, and my heart obeyed. The music swelled, soft notes of violins floating through the air like whispers. My hands trembled around the bouquet of roses and silver orchids bound in crimson ribbon. My pulse hammered against my skin, and the

    Kaylee The palace halls glittered like a dream. Chandeliers rained golden light across marble floors, the air humming with violins and the sweet trill of flutes. Perfumed candles lined the walls, and royals from every powerful house filled the ballroom in their finest silks and jewels. Their voices rose like honeyed music, their laughter ringing like bells. This was supposed to be my night. The night I proved I was more than a bastard child. The night I finally wore my crown of respect. The stares of the nobles had been fixed on me, their admiration lingering on my curves, my beauty, the bride they were forced to acknowledge. For once, I felt untouchable. Until they arrived. Sebastian and Olivia. The doors opened, and in one single breath, the entire atmosphere shifted. Their presence sucked the life out of my moment, like the celebration had never belonged to me at all. My jaw ached from the false smile I plastered on my lips, but inside, I was seething. Phillip’s voice cut th

    Sebastian General Kai was dragged into the throne room, covered in blood and bruises. “Is he really fit to talk now?” I asked, and Nathan nodded. He looked like a complete mess, but I didn't feel an atom of pity for him. Instead, my rage grew. His head was bowed as he used both his hands and knees to support himself, as what looked like water mixed with blood dripped from his hair. “Please... please, my king, have mercy on your subject. Please, my king.” I couldn't help but let out a dry laugh. “Look at me,” I said in a calm but deadly voice. “Look at me,” I said again. The room shook under the weight of my voice. General Kai slowly lifted his head, his face completely swollen with cuts and bruises. His eyes were barely open, and one was completely closed. He looked at me with fear in his eyes, his body trembling. I descended the stairs of my throne, every step I took echoing off the walls of the empty hall. “You dare beg for mercy,” I said quietly, each word dripping with

    Olivia We had breakfast by the balcony, and I couldn't help but keep smiling. After last night, my legs still trembled—but it was worth it. And I was getting married to him. It still felt unreal… but it was. He smiled at me as he took a bite of his bread. “Why are you smiling?” he asked with a smile on his face, taking another bite. “Is that how every night is going to be?” I asked shyly, my face burning with embarrassment. He'd already seen me naked—what more was I being shy about? “Worse,” he echoed, eyes wide. Sebastian’s eyes darkened with heat as he leaned forward, placing his elbows on the table and cradling his cup between his hands. His voice dropped to that velvety tone that made my stomach flip. “Worse in the best way. I held back last night, Olivia.” I nearly choked on my tea. “You… held back?” I said, trying not to squeak. He held back when he almost drove me insane? He gave a slow, dangerous smile. “Mm-hmm. You were already shaking so much I thought I’d broken
