“Tonight, you’ll learn what that costs.”The words echoed in Carl’s ears… the words seemed ethereal, as though they were coming from another dimension.He had not fully regained his senses from the visual impact created by the presence of the man who seated, like an emperor, life and death balanced effortlessly in his hands, when the words were spoken.Once the staff left and the man sat down, everything became a blur. He had no idea when Mr Walter left the room nor when these people arrived. But he knew one thing for sure… today was not just judgement day, it was also doomsday for him.He didn’t know when he had dropped to his knees… but now, he was kneeling before the Night Lord, who is also known as the Demon emperor of the Night Empire. Chris was no longer in his civilian clothes; he too had changed into his alter ego although no one saw how they changed.Chris snapped his fingers and sat back. He didn’t need to say anything else.Two men, wearing similar outfit to the man next to
“Big treasure, what do you think Daddy is preoccupied with?” Emm knitted her pretty brows as she tilted her head at her brother.Big treasure frowned slightly before raising his hand to smooth the crease between his little sister’s brows. “Don’t worry too much. Daddy must be preoccupied with Mommy.”“Don’t try to trick me.” Emm pushed Chris Jnr’s hand away with a childish snort. “I’m not stupid.”“Why do you have to be smart?” Chris Jnr muttered in frustration before lifting his head with a perfect poker smile. “What are you saying, little treasure? What could Daddy…”“Okay…” Little treasure stood up, pushing her chair back in annoyance. “If you want to play dumb, then go ahead.”She was about to stomp out of the room when Chris Jnr caught her.“Don’t run away. Brother apologizes.”“So, are you going to tell me?”“Would you believe me if I told you I don’t know?”Emm folded her arms with a fierce expression. “What do you think?”“I really don’t know.” Chris Jnr shook his head. “I was
The ceremony was meant to be short and simple.The ceremony itself was… short and simple. The ruckus that followed was anything but...Music filled the cathedral as everyone arrived, welcoming and blissful.The ceremony began with two small figures, the flower girl and boy, walking with careful importance down the aisle. And then, as though summoned by mischief itself, their little tail followed…then came another… and another… until the aisle bloomed into a parade of Burke and Walter children, their laughter spilling softly into the hall like sunlight.Soft laughter rippled through the hall, warmth settling into every corner.And then, the bride appeared.Like a hush falling over a restless sea, chaos stilled into quiet excitement. Conversations faded, breaths softened, and all eyes turned as one to admire the bride.Night Wing, a man who had walked battlefields with ease, with the quiet confidence of a man certain of his path, froze…His heart stumbled… then raced… then seemed to sto
Four weeks passed in a blink, and soon it was the morning of Abbey’s big day. She had no idea how time had slipped through her fingers. It seemed like she was in a dream, and she never wanted to wake up.She had her life carefully mapped out. Though she appeared bright and cheerful, Abbey understood the darkness of the world around her. The only light in her life had been a girl around the same age as her, the one who walked into a restroom where she was being bullied when she was around eight and led her out of that quagmire.The young girl had unwittingly entered the restroom where she was being bullied. But she didn’t walk away like the others, she thrashed every single one of them, like a rowdy overlord before holding her hands that were covered in filth without hesitation and leading her away. One might think that was the start of a beautiful friendship but to Abbey, it wasn’t.She was grateful to the Burke princess for standing up for her, for disregarding the filth on her hand
Night Wing and Abbey had planned for a small wedding. Night Wing had no living relatives, at least none that he knew of, and Abbey had cut ties with her family long time ago, even before she was an adult, after they abandoned her at an orphanage following her parents’ passing.Their plans had been perfect on paper- a small, simple affair. But reality had other ideas. The only thing that remained unchanged was the cathedral wedding. It had been Abbey’s dream, ever since she was a little girl.The cathedral chosen for the ceremony was the one the Walters had attended ever since Adam moved his family here. Having been Chris’s shadow since the day they met, it was the only church Night Wing knew, was part of, and so the choice had been easy.Abbey’s original plan was to get ready from Emile’s place, Rose Villa. However, the arrival of the Burkes once again changed things.“My dear girl, the bride has to be escorted to the church from her home, not the groom’s place,” Agnes insisted.Abbey
Life slipped back into its familiar rhythm.Chris Jnr and Emm, along with their ever-present little tail, kept the entire household on its toes... decorating, re-decorating, and transforming their room into what they insisted was a “properly baby-friendly space.” Each new idea somehow demanded undoing the last, and the constant cycle drove everyone to the brink of madness.Until finally… Chris packed the trio off to Devil Island for training.“Finally… some peace. And my guilty pleasures.” Emile sighed contentedly, sinking into the couch as she unwrapped a bar of chocolate.Abbey arched a brow, glancing up from her tablet. She and Night Wing were knee-deep in wedding planning. Pulling everything together within a month was no easy feat… but at least neither of them had relatives hovering over their shoulders, offering opinions they didn’t ask for.A small mercy.“Those two have been driving me crazy,” Emile continued between bites, her tone light, her eyes bright. “Not allowed to eat
Daniel had no idea where he was or how long he had been lying in this position. He could only guess that it might have been a long time since his bones felt so stiff that he couldn’t even move without groaning. He struggled for a long time before being able to stand straight, even though it was onl
Emile felt a bit anxious as she entered the room with Chris’s and Neil’s masters. Although she knew them, she wasn’t very familiar with them. She looked towards Lai-Li with an anxious gaze; Lai- Li was the only person in the group whom she knew a little better.“It will be alright.” Lai-Li comforted
“What did you say?”“Daddy, don’t be stressed.” Big treasure winked towards little treasure as he coaxed in a soft voice “Daddy, Big treasure has been taking care of empress since he went over, before that…” He sighed in relief in an adult like tone “Luckily the empress’s brain was working before I
Everyone went back to their rooms to rest and change before the reception banquet, which was also the continuation of the wedding extravaganza with no expense spared. With all the guests housed in Royal Lux, the hotel was closed to outside business, other than the ones that had a pre-booking and cou
