Hans slightly tilted his head, not so obvious, but I got whatever he wanted to say.

“Look at your parents. They’re glad to see that we’re getting along, although I know you’re not feeling the same way,” Hans added, making a sarcastic smile. “Are you really going to ruin that?”

I blinked twice, my gaze moving to where he was looking.

He was right. My parents were delighted at the sight.

And it’s just not them and my parents. The other guests look happy now that we’re together, too, although I co

  • His Forbidden Possession   Chapter 78: Leave Me Alone!

    My words ricocheted in the air, causing River’s eyes to widen as he took a step away from me.This is the first time I showed this kind of emotion. Ever since the Millers took me, they taught me not to show any emotions.I’ve undergone therapy, but even up until this day, I’m having a hard time telling myself that it’s okay to show people what I really feel.That it’s okay to be vulnerable. That it won’t kill me. Not literally.“I made mistakes,” River said quietly, to the point I had a hard time hearing his voice. “But believe me, Seraphina. Every risk, every step I took to save you… has been for you. Not money. Not for leverage. Just you, and nothing else mattered.”I closed my eyes as I let those words sink into my mind.I wanted to believe him, but Hans’ words planted seeds of doubt in my mind, gnawing at me.“He made a deal with the syndicate. Once River finds the lost princess, which is you… He’ll have more money and leverage in return.”As those words echoed in my mind again, m

  • His Forbidden Possession   Chapter 77: Betrayal

    I felt like the world had shattered as I heard his explanation.I held onto my chest, feeling how it tightened because of mixed shock and anger.“That… That’s not true,” I whispered, my voice trembling as I shook my head. “You’re just making things up. You don’t want to see me being happy with River, so you went here to tear us apart…”As I said those words, I couldn’t even hear my voice because of how low it was.I was convincing myself that it wasn’t true, but my intuition tells me that Hans was telling the truth.And that is what’s hurting me the most.“Come on, Serenity.” Hans chuckled. “Are you trying to tell that to me, or are you trying to convince yourself that River is the same person you thought he would be?”I didn’t answer. No… I couldn’t.It felt like my voice had left my throat already. I couldn’t even find the strength to stand properly as I felt like I could stumble down at any time.“I may be psychotic in your eyes now, flying to France just to personally tell you abo

  • His Forbidden Possession   Chapter 76: Leverage

    River wasn’t the one who sent me the message, but the contents… It was all about him.“Underground… business?” I muttered, my brows furrowing as I scrolled through the articles. “River’s a part of this? Why would someone send this to me?”If only River were here, I could easily have asked him about these contents. But he’s not, and he wasn’t replying to my texts, either.Well, he has told me that he would be busy until night, and I understand. I’m also sure that whoever sent me this message was just trying to taint River’s reputation.I’m sure it’s Hans. He just wants me to doubt River.“No… This isn’t true…” I whispered, shaking my head as I tried not to imagine anything. “Because River doesn’t have any reason to be a part of this.”I wasn’t innocent of this kind of organization. Syndicates like this were created to do illegal things.And the idea that River, the man who had risked everything to save me, could be a part of this… It makes my chest ache.Before I could even notice it,

  • His Forbidden Possession   Chapter 75: Articles

    I froze upon reading the message.Even if the sender didn’t officially introduce himself, I already knew who it was.Hans Continental.But what does he mean by this?“Seraphina,” River suddenly called, halting my thoughts. “Are you okay? You look pale, as if you’ve seen a ghost.”“Ah, y-yeah.” I cleared my throat. “Sorry, I think I want to rest tonight. Can we call this a day?”“Sure,” he answered without hesitation, and yet, he was still staring at me, as if studying my expression. “But are you telling the truth? Isn’t there something bothering you? I think you’ve got a message.”He looked at my phone.River was stronger than me, which means that if he tries to steal my phone or something, he could easily do it. He could even take a peek.But he didn’t. River respected my boundaries even if I haven’t enforced them yet.“It’s nothing,” I answered in a low tone, subtly returning the phone to my pocket. “So… Let’s see each other again tomorrow?”River smiled, but it didn’t reach his ear

  • His Forbidden Possession   Chapter 74: Message

    Those words hit me like a wave, leaving me speechless as I stared at him. I know that he loves me… But I didn’t know the duration.I didn’t have any idea that it was for a long time.Or maybe the reason I couldn’t notice him… Because I was so busy hiding my own. He’s not the only one feeling this way.I thought I only liked him when I saw him at the bar before, but it turns out that wasn’t the case.Because like him, I have loved River for a long time, too.“I… I feel the same way, too,” I whispered, looking at him with so much love and admiration. “It doesn’t matter if you kept a secret from me before. You did it all for me. I trust you. I always will.”Smiling, I added, “But you can’t do that again, okay? You can’t hide secrets from me, or else I will not forgive you.”River nodded, his smile widening, but I also saw another flicker of emotion in his eyes—something that I wasn’t able to decipher.He squeezed my hands gently, his fingers warm and steady, grounding me as the world swi

  • His Forbidden Possession   Chapter 73: It's Always You

    Nodding as if I said the right thing, River pulled me into an embrace.“If you want to cry, just do it. Your body is trying to release something. Don’t stop it.”And as if my body was following his commands, before I knew it, tears were already streaming down my face.For the first time, I allowed myself to feel all the emotions that I’ve been suppressing, especially the negative ones.I cried in his arms while he hugged me tighter, making sure I would feel that I’m not alone.And I don’t.His warmth grounded me in ways I didn’t expect.Even though I know that there was still danger and uncertainty, I wasn’t alone. River remained at my side, patient as he just waited for me to be fine.In my mind, I began the slow process of regulating my emotions. Not just for my empire, but myself.I may have lost everything I had before, but I also gained more than power.I had gained the truth, my real identity, and someone willing to stand with me no matter the cost.“How are you feeling?” River

  • His Forbidden Possession   Chapter 32: Different Approach

    I didn’t speak. I couldn’t.My mind and heart were having an exact opposite opinion about this.And even if I tried to fight it, the fear was already buried in my heart. It’s not something I could remove immediately just because I want to.“No.” Shaking my head, I removed my hand from his cheek wi

  • His Forbidden Possession   Chapter 31: Answer

    “And… Is that wrong?”“No. It’s not.” River shook his head. “As long as you’re not doing something wrong, or hurting other people, it will never be wrong to fight for your own happiness.”As long as I’m not doing something wrong…“But this is wrong,” I couldn’t help but mumble, feeling how River wa

    “You… You’re kidding,” Hans muttered as if he was convincing himself. “You chose that punk over me?”“He’s not a punk. He’s my cousin,” I answered without hesitation, looking Hans in the eye. There wasn’t any hint of fear in it; only bravery.“And if you really wanted to marry me, then you should

    I added, “And if you think you’re being attentive and charming in my eyes because of what you’re doing? Think again.”The feeling he was giving me was the same as with my parents. Like I’m being constantly examined. I couldn’t move freely. It’s as if I always need to be conscious of my actions, ev
