She turned her head and looked around, trying to understand what was happening. And her throat was dry.

“Who are you? What do you want?” she managed to whisper, squinting at the man before her.

Victor let out a soft laugh, the kind that seemed like he didn’t want to.

"My name’s not important," he said, brushing invisible dust from his sleeve. "But yours… well, let's talk about that." He pointed to her shirt. The name ZAGAFF printed in big black letters was stretched across her chest.

His tone became serious as he leaned forward.

"Where is he?"

Kamala frowned, shaking her head slowly. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Victor raised an eyebrow. “Ashley, please,” he said mockingly. “Don’t do this. Just tell me where Zagaff is… it'll make things easier for you.”

Kamala looked down at her shirt, and she felt her heart beating louder. She hated herself. Why did I get involved in this? She thought. It was just a stupid idea to get attention. She didn’t know it would lead to this.

    The room had grown quiet after Marvin left. Only the soft sound of the city outside filled the silence. Zagaff rested his hand on the armrest, the other drumming lightly against his knee. He narrowed his eyes, and a slow, almost dangerous smile tugged at his lips.“I will soon be on your door, Nia…” he murmured under his breath, and he sounded serious, almost like a vow. “To finish off where we started.”Coco, who was still curled at his feet, lifted his head at the sound of his master’s voice. His dark eyes glistened, and his ears twitched as though he understood everything behind those words.Zagaff leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees. He stared at Coco with a half-smirk. “You hear that, boy? I won’t hide myself this time. Sylvania is different… and I want more.”Coco gave a small whine, then wagged his tail, as if agreeing with him. The dog tilted his head, watching Zagaff closely, almost like he shared the secret.Zagaff chuckled softly, he reached down and scratched b

    The following morning, the light poured through the tall white curtains. It was soft, but too bright for Sylvania’s half-asleep eyes. She shifted against the sheets, her hand brushing a pillow that wasn’t hers. The room smelled of expensive cologne and fresh roses. It was very quiet inside than her own bedroom, where she could hear the sound of traffic from outside.Her lashes fluttered open, and she froze. This wasn’t her room. The ceiling was high, the walls were painted in gold, and the air carried the chill of an air conditioner that never shut off. She turned her head, and there he was… Zagaff. He was already dressed and he sat at the edge of the bed with his elbows on his knees.“Good morning, Nia,” he said softly, a slow smile pulling at his lips. “You sleep like an angel.” His eyes lingered on her face as if memorizing it. “I could’ve watched you for hours.”Sylvania pushed herself up, clutching the sheets against her chest. “Morning,” she murmured, her voice was rough with sl

    All he could do was stare as Sylvania moved deeper into the hall below, her red dress twinkling a little with every step. He forced his eyes back to Ruger, leaning normally in his chair as if nothing had shifted inside him. His fingers drummed slowly against the table, a habit he used when trying to keep control.Ruger, sensed the change in Zagaff’s behavior but he pretended not to notice. He picked up his fork and gave a small grin. “This… this is one of a kind,” he said, nodding at the spread before them. “You don’t get this kind of flavor anywhere else in the country.”Zagaff smirked a little, his eyes turned once more to the glass before replying, “Divas Delux only serves the finest. They know how to treat their guests.”The girls beside Ruger leaned in closer, one gently resting her hand on his shoulder while the other traced a finger along the rim of his glass. Ruger chuckled, murmuring something about how they were, “and these birds beside me really know how to keep me warm.”

    She didn’t appear to be angry, and she didn’t even smile; she was just surprise, she hadn’t expected to hear those words today.“…You’re asking me that now?” she said softly.Charlotte didn’t know what to say next.Sylvania closed the notebook gently, and she didn’t blink. “Charlotte… look at my face.”Charlotte lifted her eyes, meeting Sylvania’s.“This face,” Sylvania said, almost in a whisper. “Your brother was about to smash it with a bottle.” Her lips trembled slightly as if the memory still burned behind her eyes.Charlotte’s shoulders sagged. “He just… overreacted, Sylvania. He didn’t mean to do something like that.”Sylvania smiled, like she didn’t want to. “It’s time to move forward, Charlotte. Not live in the shadows of our past mistakes.”Charlotte opened her mouth to speak, but Sylvania’s face changed; like she had suddenly remembered something important. She straightened up.“Actually… I need you for something. We’re dressing someone important for the business gala next

    Sylvania didn’t even glance at Charlotte. She kept her chin high and her eyes on the crowd of young recruits standing in front of her.She put on that smile, studying each and every one for a second before she continued. “Welcome to Scarlet Fashions,” she said with a calm voice, and she sounded friendly. “This place may look old now, but soon, it will be full of life and beautiful. We’ll see our dreams coming true.”The recruits listened closely. Some looked excited, others unsure.“I know many of you didn’t expect this,” she continued, “but this…” she waved her hand at the dusty building, “…this is where we begin. Not in a perfect place, but in a real one.”One girl raised her hand. “Miss Scarlet… are we going to design clothes today?”Another boy asked, “Where are the sewing machines?”A taller girl near the back added, “Are we really working in here?”Sylvania chuckled lightly. “Good questions. The machines are coming later today. Right now, we clean, and we prepare. That’s how eve
