ZARIA 101:

A thin line of suspicion crept into my thoughts.

I straightened slowly.

Perhaps I was reading too much into it. After all, the village often held events.

There could be reasons.

Still, nothing passed in this village without me knowing. I had made it my duty to understand every movement here. Why had I not heard of anything that required disguise kits?

I opened the door and stepped back into the room.

Gerald looked up at once. “Are you comfortable?” he asked.

“I am fine,” I replied c

  • Healing The Devil I Once Loved   CHAPTER 101

    ZARIA 101:A thin line of suspicion crept into my thoughts.I straightened slowly.Perhaps I was reading too much into it. After all, the village often held events. There could be reasons.Still, nothing passed in this village without me knowing. I had made it my duty to understand every movement here. Why had I not heard of anything that required disguise kits?I opened the door and stepped back into the room.Gerald looked up at once. “Are you comfortable?” he asked.“I am fine,” I replied calmly, returning to sit on the edge of the bed.Eric handed me a glass of water. “Drink slowly.”I did, letting the coolness settle in my throat.“Where are the rest of the men?” I asked casually.Gerald answered first. “They stepped out.”“At this hour?”He shrugged lightly. “Preparations.”“For what?”There was a brief pause, so slight that someone less observant might not notice.“For the village show next weekend,” Eric said smoothly. “We were asked to assist.”I tilted my head slightly. “A

    ZARIA 100:“Get in!” he shouted.More shots rang out from above as we rushed toward the truck. We jumped inside, and Big Chen slammed his foot down on the accelerator without looking back. The truck roared forward, tires screeching as we sped through the streets. Cars swerved out of our path, horns blaring loudly. I glanced back and saw another vehicle chasing us, gaining speed.Big Chen did not panic. He took a sudden sharp turn into a narrow street that only locals would know. The pursuing car tried to follow but lost control on the tight corner and crashed into a pole with a loud metallic crash.We did not slow down.Only when the city lights faded behind us and the road grew quieter did Big Chen ease his foot off the accelerator.“You are bleeding,” he said, glancing at my arm.I looked down and saw that blood had soaked through my sleeve, dark and spreading.“It is nothing,” I said, though my arm throbbed with steady pain.Renzo… my idiotic man, what did you do this time? My t

    RENZO 99:“No. And do not retaliate. Not until I say so. Am I clear?”The knock came again, louder this time.I frowned slightly.“I will call again at dawn,” I said.“Boss,” Asher said hesitantly, “are you sure you are alright?”I let out a breath.“I am fine.”That was not entirely true.But it was enough._________________On the other end of the call, I heard Zaria exhale slowly, and the sound was soft and tired, like someone who had fought too hard and finally allowed sleep to carry her away. I did not speak again because I did not want to disturb her rest, and I did not want the men to say my name and make her worry. I simply held the phone close to my ear for one more second so that I could be sure she was still breathing, and then I ended the call.The silence in my study felt heavy the moment the line went dead. I remained seated for a brief moment, staring at nothing in particular while my thoughts moved quickly.“Come in,” I said absent-mindedly. I was still thinking abou

    RENZO 98:Night had already settled heavily over my estate when my phone began to vibrate on the desk beside me.I had been standing near the window in my study, staring at the dark sky and thinking about China. The trip had been planned carefully. Every fucking meeting had been arranged… It was not a visit that could be delayed easily.However, my phone kept vibrating.I turned slowly and looked at the screen.It was Gerald—Asher.I answered at once. “What is it?” On the other end, the room sounded rather tense. I could hear heavy breathing, movement, and someone whispering in silence.“Boss,” Asher said quickly, “Zaria is injured. She came here bleeding and then fainted at the door.”My hands tightened slightly around the phone. “How bad?” I asked, surprised at how calmly my tone was. Because the moment I panicked, my men would lose their state of composure.“It is a gunshot wound,” Eric—Hawk’s voice joined in. He sounded cool, but I could hear the strain beneath it. “The bullet pa

    ZARIA 97That was the first sign that something was wrong, yet I still chose to follow her because walking away would have raised more questions than staying.The elevator ride felt longer than it should have, and even though the space was not small, it felt tight with our silence. The woman who had come to get me stood stiffly beside me, her hands folded neatly in front of her.She did not look at me even once or try to make small talk the way hotel staff usually do.I was completely on my own, battling with the soft humming of the elevator as it moved upward, floor after floor, until my ears felt slightly full from the height.When the doors finally opened, I sighed in relief. The carpet swallowed our footsteps, and the lights along the walls glowed warmly, but there were no other guests in sight.She led me down the hallway to a private room near the end, walking at an unhurried pace. When she opened the door and stepped aside to let me enter, I paused for a second before walking i

    ZARIA 96:Why lay all my eggs in one basket when I could take all from his basket? Whatever that meant. “You are all new,” I said. “You arrived suddenly. You work very closely. And you watch everything like a Hawk. I remember when you stopped Gerald from saying more.” I added with forced warmth. Eric did not react strongly. He simply nodded again. Seems like that's the only thing he knew how to do. “That is our job,” he said calmly.I felt irritation rising inside me.He was not even slipping into the conversation the way I wanted him to. What a serious bastard. I decided to change direction.“So,” I said lightly, “how is Daniel doing?”He stiffened slightly, then relaxed.“We are new in the relationship,” he said. “It is still fresh and we are just trying.”“You seem serious about it,” I added.He glanced away briefly. “I do not joke about that.”His voice sounded honest. I searched his face again for any crack, any sign that he was pretending.There was nothing.“You really are

    RENZO A week changed everything.And it was not because time healed or any of that bullshit, but because my body finally stopped lagging behind my head. On the second day of my recovery, the shaking eased and the weakness stopped embarrassing me. I could walk without the crutches by the fifth day

    ELIX “I’m sorry, ma’am,” Grace continued. “She’s been under a lot of stress.”I nodded once. “It’s fine. Accidents happen.”“Come, I’ll attend to that.” Grace gave May a worried look and gently guided her away, still apologizing, completely unaware of how close she had been to witnessing something
