"I really don't see why you need to keep doing this to yourself." Priya set her wine glass down with more force than necessary with her eyes fixed hard on Seraphina who was seated across the table. "I just see these two months as an unnecessary delay. You are spiraling."

"I am not spiraling." Seraphina replied.

"First of all, you've barely left your room in a week. Your mother was so worried that she had to call us to help." Camille chimed in from beside her with her arms crossed. "We

    "I really don't see why you need to keep doing this to yourself." Priya set her wine glass down with more force than necessary with her eyes fixed hard on Seraphina who was seated across the table. "I just see these two months as an unnecessary delay. You are spiraling." "I am not spiraling." Seraphina replied. "First of all, you've barely left your room in a week. Your mother was so worried that she had to call us to help." Camille chimed in from beside her with her arms crossed. "We had to practically drag you out for lunch today."Seraphina picked at the food in front of her as her appetite was long gone. "I don't know what you want me to do about it. I am just overwhelmed by everything that is happening in my life." "Just say yes to the marriage proposal, Sera, and escape your father's eyes. What else is there? Just say yes. This is Nicolas Vale that we are talking about. Do you know how many girls would kill just to be with that man?" "He already told me he doesn'

    "I have told you not to call me that." Saint said with displeasure. Nicolas smiled and sat up. "My bad. I totally forgot." "Are you like this with everyone else?" Because to Saint, having such a carefree attitude wouldn't have made people be scared of him like they were. "Nah. I am only like this with you." His answer made Saint's heart skip a beat for a few seconds before he managed to put his reaction under control. Nicolas stood up and went to where he had dropped a folder that he had brought in with him earlier. "Something came up, that was why I had to rush off. Anyways, I also managed to get something about Peter." He slid the folder across the surface. "Our fathers think he's clean. He has no leverage or dirt, he is just an ambitious man with good PR." "You don't think so?" Saint asked as he flipped the folder open, revealing a photograph of a young woman who was soft featured and smiling faintly. From the looks of it, the picture seemed to have been take

    Saint finished dressing and had just stepped out when a guard found him in the hallway, wandering about. "Storm." The man inclined his head respectfully. "Boss Nicolas is back and has informed me to bring you to see him. I am guessing you are less busy now?”Saint nodded.“So please...this way." “Hmm. Lead the way." He followed the man behind, climbing the few stairs that seemed to lead towards another angle of the mansion. They reached a set of glass doors and the man pushed one of them open, gesturing him through and then shut it firmly once Saint had stepped inside. The space opened into a private pool area with sunlight glinting sharp against the water. Nicolas was mid-lap, cutting through the surface of the water with such powerful strokes that would have made one conclude that he was a professional athlete. He was unbothered by the audience he had and just remained focused until he got to the other end. Saint's mouth went dry despite himself. He watched helplessly and u

    "You have to release the boy." The Commander instructed Simon, one of the City's local inspectors. Simon frowned heavily at this order. His hands that were behind his back carefully found their way to his sides as he adjusted his position. "Sir? We should release him?" "Yes. Release him." "But he is a major suspect in this case. His fingerprints were found all over the murder weapon." Simon insisted. "So are you claiming that he committed the offence?" Simon shut his eyes briefly, wet his lips with his tongue and nodded. "Not at all, sir. I am just saying that I don't think it is appropriate that we let a major suspect go while investigations are still ongoing." "Inspector Simon," the Commander called it with agitation. "Sir!" Simon stood firmly. "Who is the boss between you and I?" "You are the boss, Commander." "Good. Now go do what I say. His people are here to bail him out already and keep it from the media that he is a part of

    A car drove right into the Vale family compound. After it had parked just right at the entrance of the mansion, Saint stepped out of the car with his duffel slung over one shoulder. His jaw was tight beneath the mask as two guards led him inside the mansion. "Have a seat. Someone will attend to you shortly." One of the men informed him and Saint nodded. He put his bag on the floor and waited. Upstairs inside a room built like an office, Nicolas had watched Storm walk into the house with a pleased expression. He glanced at his father who was busy scribbling down something with a serious expression. "I had no idea Storm was the person you had in mind for the job." He said, walking back to the desk. He pulled the chair out and sat on it. "Hm. He will be assisting with the Peter situation. Vincent offered to loan him to us for some time. Maybe we can also see how capable he is and use him for our benefits."Nicolas nodded. "That is good. I'm assuming he is working directly u

    The underground bar buzzed low with music and the air was full of smoke. It was clear that such a place like this was reserved for men who preferred their business and pleasure kept far from public eyes. Nicolas slid into the booth across from Aaron, already reaching for the bottle sitting between them. “I thought you weren't going to come.” “The motherfucker fainted before I could drive a knife through his throat.”Aaron laughed. “All talk but no action. Despicable.” "So,” Aaron leaned back, arms spread along the top of the seat as he watched his friend pour some wine into his cup. “How is married life treating you? Or well… should I call it your soon-to-be-married life?" "Don't start." Nicolas drowned half of the glass in one go. "I'm just asking." Aaron grinned, unbothered. "You've barely mentioned her since the introduction. What is the verdict though? Tolerable? Insufferable? Clingy? Annoying? Submissive? Somewhere in between all?" "She is fine." Nicolas sh
