Clara’s eyelids fluttered as consciousness slowly crept in. The room was dim, unnervingly cold, and her body refused to obey her fully. Her hands were bound tightly behind her back, and a rough gag muffled her mouth. Every shallow breath scraped against the material, but she dared not struggle too violently. Pain shot through her arms with the slightest movement.

A shiver ran through her as she tested her legs. The chair beneath her was solid, anchored to the floor. The distant scrape of metal

  • GOLDEN CONTRACT OF DESIRE   Chapter 82: Hidden Bruises

    Clara’s fingers remained on the door handle after the question left her mouth. The office suddenly felt quieter than before, almost heavy enough to press against her chest. Behind her, the faint sound of glass touching the desk echoed softly before silence settled again.Her boss finally leaned back slightly. “You already know the rules. Agents are not allowed to know the client until the mission is successful.” Her eyes stayed fixed on Clara. “The less you know, the longer you stay alive.”Clara lowered her gaze immediately. “Yes, boss.”“You’ve been asking too many unnecessary questions.” She brought out a cigarette. Clara’s fingers tightened slightly around the rod still in her hand. “It won’t happen again.”Her boss watched her for a few seconds without speaking. “Good,” she said eventually. “Because I’m already taking a risk by keeping you alive after this level of failure.” She tilted her head slightly. “Don’t make me regret it, Velora.”Clara bowed immediately after hearing th

  • GOLDEN CONTRACT OF DESIRE   Chapter 81: Consequences

    The back door closed behind Clara with a muted mechanical thud, sealing her inside the Eclipse Breed Organization’s private vehicle. After long driving and the vehicle finally stopped, she stepped out without hesitation and walked straight into the facility. The moment the gates began to part automatically, the illusion of abandonment dissolved completely.Armed guards stood in position at both sides of the entrance. She walked in deeper into the compound until she stopped in front of a building made of dark glass and reinforced steel. Clara adjusted her coat. The air felt different. Not just colder, but controlled.One of the instructor lowered his head slightly the moment she passed, while another stepped aside without being ordered. No one questioned her arrival. She was already expected.Clara walked forward steadily, her heels echoing faintly across the metallic floor of the inner corridor. People inside the facility paused briefly as she passed, not enough to stare openly, but

  • GOLDEN CONTRACT OF DESIRE   Chapter 80: The Funeral

    The burial ground remained silent as the ceremony slowly came to an end. Rows of workers dressed in black stood around the open grave with straight expressions and lowered heads. Nobody spoke unless necessary. Even the sound of shoes moving against the ground felt too loud in the atmosphere.The coffin was slowly lowered into the soil while the ropes were firmly held from both sides. The wooden casket disappeared little by little beneath the earth until it finally settled at the bottom. Once the ropes were pulled back up, silence spread across the place again.Clara stood beside Jeffery without moving.Her eyes stayed fixed on the grave as the first handful of dirt landed on the coffin below. The repeated sound echoed softly through the burial ground while the workers remained still around it.No family members were present. Only Rothwell workers.Clara slowly released the breath she had been holding inside her chest. It felt like a mountain had finally been removed from her heart.

  • GOLDEN CONTRACT OF DESIRE   Chapter 79: Hidden Condition

    “What condition?” Clara asked again, her voice weak but clearer this time. Her eyes stayed locked on him, not letting him escape the question. The room felt quieter the moment she spoke.Jeffery froze for a second, his hand stopping mid-air near the edge of the bed. He looked at her briefly, then turned his face away as if searching for words that were not coming. Clara noticed it immediately, her gaze sharpening despite her weak state.“What condition?” she repeated again, softer but more serious.Jeffery exhaled slowly and stepped closer to adjust her pillow instead of answering directly. “You should rest first,” he said, avoiding her eyes completely.Clara didn’t move. She just watched him carefully, her fingers slowly tightening on the blanket. “Was it because of the wine?” she asked. “Did something happen to me?”Jeffery shook his head slightly, still not looking at her. “It’s nothing serious,” he replied. “You just need rest.”Clara stayed silent for a moment, studying him close

  • GOLDEN CONTRACT OF DESIRE   Chapter 78: Condition

    Daniel stepped out of the airport, dragging his suitcase behind him as the evening wind brushed past his face. A black car was already waiting by the roadside the moment he came outside, its engine running softly. He slowed for a second before his phone started ringing inside his pocket, pulling his attention away.He brought it out and checked the screen briefly before lifting it to his ear. “How was your trip?” Malcolm asked immediately, his voice calm but firm. “Has the owner agreed to sell?”“Yes, sir,” Daniel replied while opening the car door and stepping inside. He closed it behind him and settled properly in the seat. “Everything has been settled already, sir.”“Good,” Malcolm said, and faint paper sounds came through like files being moved on a desk. “Take care of the necessary things and make sure every record is wiped clean.” His tone stayed steady as he continued speaking. “After that, we’ll decide what to do with the lounge.”Daniel adjusted slightly in his seat and nodd

  • GOLDEN CONTRACT OF DESIRE   Chapter 77: Not The Same Jeffery

    Clara lay still on the bed, her breathing slower now, not perfect but no longer fighting her the way it had moments ago. One of the medics adjusted the sheet slightly over her and glanced at Jeffery before speaking. “She’s stable for now, but she needs proper care at the hospital,” he said, his tone calm. Jeffery eyes stayed on Clara. He was still watching for something that might be wrong.Another medic stepped closer, checking her again before adding, “Let her rest for a bit, then we’ll move her.” The room felt quieter than it should have been, like everyone was waiting for something else to happen. Jeffery’s hand hovered close to her, not touching. He didn’t trust the distance. His jaw stayed tight, but he didn’t say anything more.Clara’s fingers moved slightly against the sheet, small and weak, but enough to show she was still there. Jeffery leaned in a little, his voice dropping without thinking. “You don’t get to scare me like that,” he said quietly, more to her than anyone

  • GOLDEN CONTRACT OF DESIRE   Chapter 30: More Than What He Saw

    Later that night, Jeffery stood alone in his study. The screen in front of him replayed the same footage again. A small phone hidden beneath her hair. His eyes stayed on it, his thoughts going beyond what the screen actually showed.He replayed it once more. Clara wasn't aware he knew, or at least

  • GOLDEN CONTRACT OF DESIRE   Chapter 22: Just What She Needed

    Clara dried herself carefully in the changing room in the swimming pool area. She removed her soaked dress and changed into something soft and comfortable. She let out a quiet sigh. The water had left her hair slightly damp, clinging to her shoulders, and she walked toward her room. H1 had already

  • GOLDEN CONTRACT OF DESIRE   Chapter 19: A Proper Morning

    Later that night, Clara walked into her room while Jeffery returned to his own. Each of them carried different thoughts from the long evening. Jeffery removed his jacket and set it aside, thinking about the lady who had tried to trap him at the party. His men had already taken care of the situation

    Their hands brushed as they moved together toward the door. It was a small, fleeting touch, but enough to set a spark between them. Throughout the ride, he kept stealing glances at her, a quiet, unspoken admiration. She felt his gaze, but fought to look straight ahead, keeping herself composed.AT
