ELISE

The world seems to tilt on its axis and the temperature in the room drops several degrees.

Kieran's presence fills every corner like a physical force.

He's dressed impeccably in a charcoal suit, and his expression looks carved from ice.

His eyes are what make my breath catch. They are utterly devoid of mercy.

The chaos that had erupted moments ago… the shouting, the scuffling, the violence… all stops instantly.

Vincent freezes mid-punch with his fist suspended inches from Matthew's face while the other guards stumble back, their bravado evaporating like morning mist. Even my father, who moments ago was red-faced and bellowing orders, goes silent.

Everyone in this room knows who Kieran Westfield is. Everyone in this room is terrified of him.

The Westfield name carries weight in this city and the entire country of Cassovile. It carries fear.

Kieran's family built their empire on steel and ruthlessness, and he's proven himself to be the most dangerous of them all. There are rumors

  • The Heiress' Return For Vengeance    CH.111

    KIERANKieran's footsteps echo in the vast corridor, each one taking him further from the life his father planned for him and heads straight toward his mother's suite.However, as he walks through the familiar corridors, something feels wrong.The air tastes empty. He can't catch even a whisper of her scent that has become as familiar to him as his own breath.The door to Celeste's suite stands slightly ajar with a sliver of golden lamplight spilling into the darkened hallway.Kieran pushes it open, stepping into the dimly lit sanctuary his mother has carved from this house of horrors.Celeste sits in her usual chair by the window, gazing blankly at the darkening sky, where the first stars are beginning to pierce through.The fading twilight casts shadows across her face, highlighting the delicate bone structure that Kieran inherited.The same sharp cheekbones, the same aristocratic features that mark them both.Yet she looks frailer than he remembers.Her skin is nearly translucent,

  • The Heiress' Return For Vengeance    CH.110

    KIERANKieran is in a boardroom in Brussels, listening to projections for the European markets when a call from his penthouse comes."Sir, Mrs. Westfield has been taken." Vincent's voice rings the second the call connects.Vincent's words hit Kieran like a sledgehammer to the chest.Around the table, executives continue discussing quarterly reports, oblivious to the fact that his world has just tilted off its axis.The numbers on the projection screen blur as the voices fade to white noise.Everything narrows to a single point of focus.Elise."Taken where?" His voice is controlled, but his knuckles are white where they grip the phone."The Old Master's people, Portala. She went willingly to avoid bloodshed."Kieran's jaw clenches so hard his teeth ache."They're heading to the estate."The estate. That word alone carries the weight of decades of trauma, manipulation, and cruelty.The place where Kieran learned that love was weakness and sentiment was a liability to be exploited.And

    ELISEI can't speak or breathe.Words stick in my throat as I stare at her in shock."H-how... how do you know about... about that?" I stutter, shaking so badly. "How could you possibly know that I was... that I..." I can't even say the word 'reborn' out loud.Celeste's expression gentles, but she doesn't give me a direct answer. Instead, she touches the corner of her eye with one delicate finger."These eyes have seen many things, child. More than just what exists in the physical realm.Time isn't as linear as most people believe, and some of us are blessed or cursed with the ability to see the threads that connect past to present to future.""But that's... that's impossible," I whisper, even as part of me knows she's telling the truth."Is it? Or does it explain why you look at my son with guilt?”Each word has my jaw dropping because she's describing things I've never told anyone."The bond between you and my son isn't new, child. It's been forged, broken and forged again across li

    ELISEI follow Mrs. Westfield through quieter, more elegant corridors.The East Wing feels different from the main house. Less oppressive, more refined.She leads me to a private sitting room that overlooks the estate's gardens.When she turns to face me, there's indiscernible emotions in her eyes. Then her gaze drops to the pendant around my neck.She stares at it for too long and her hands shake slightly before she claps them together."Come, sit with me."I sit in the chair she indicates, feeling like I'm being evaluated by a particularly astute predator.The stern woman helping her pours tea from a silver service, her movements practiced and graceful. But I notice the slight tremor in her hands, the way she has to concentrate to keep the liquid from spilling.We sit in silence for a long moment until Celeste finally breaks the tense silence."That pendant. Where did you get it?"My hand goes to it protectively. "It was my mother's. She gave it to me before she died."Celeste's eye

    ELISEVivienne's face flushes with rage. "How dare you...""How dare I what?" I cut her off. "You've spent this entire meal calling me a whore, a bastard, a fraud. You've mocked my dead mother, celebrated my humiliation. And now you're offended that I won't pretend this is a friendly family dinner?"Abigail's eyes narrow dangerously. "You forget your place, girl."I laugh. The sound is bitter and sharp. "You've all made it very clear I have no place. Not in this family, not in the Blackwood legacy, nowhere. So forgive me if I don't play along with whatever sick game this is supposed to be."Alexander’s expression darkens. "Watch your tone. You're speaking to your elders!""Elders who have shown me nothing but contempt," I reply evenly. "Respect is earned. Not demanded. Well, I suppose as my nephew-in-law, you should understand the complications of family hierarchy."The subtle jab lands perfectly.Alexander's face darkens further.Natasha places a gentle hand on his arm. "Elise, we're

    ELISEBartholomew Westfield looks much younger than his years. His dark hair is barely touched with silver and his face unlined and handsome in a cold, aristocratic way.He's dressed in an impeccably tailored charcoal suit.Everything about him radiates power and control, from his perfect posture to the way his eyes assess everything."Father-in-law," I say with polite formality despite the tension crackling through the room.His gaze flicks to me. Then a single, low "Hmm" is his only acknowledgment of my greeting before he gestures with one elegant hand toward an empty chair.Beside him sits his first wife, Abigail Westfield. A sharp-faced woman with blonde hair and cold dark eyes that have watched decades of family politics unfold.Her smile is all teeth and no warmth.Gregory sits across from them. There's resentment in his eyes when he looks at me. Beside him sits Vivienne who makes no effort to hide her hatred.Her eyes burn with undisguised loathing.Alexander and Natasha soon c
