One Bride, Two Masters Who Are You, Adrian?
“I need to focus on proving to the board that I made the right investments,” Darius muttered, frustration heavy in his tone.Papers covered his entire desk figures, proposals, receipts, and reports scattered in uneven stacks. He had been awake since dawn, double-checking numbers and rewriting explanations he had already gone through a dozen times.He rubbed his forehead and sighed. “There’s no room for distractions right now.”To be honest, Lena was the last thing on his mind. He cared more than he wanted to admit but work had taken over completely, pushing everything else to the side. He didn’t even notice that he had not spoken to her properly in days....The next morning, Lena stood in front of her mirror as Clara fastened the back of her simple but elegant dress.“You look calm,” Clara said, smoothing the fabric. “But I know you’re nervous.”“I’m excited… and worried,” Lena replied quietly. “But mostly excited. Today means a lot.”“It will go well,” Clara assured her. “Volkov doe
One Bride, Two Masters IT'S TIME
Lena stood still at the top of the staircase, her breath caught in her chest.“Darius…?” she whispered.And there he was.Tall, calm, unreadable as always. His dark eyes moved from her face to Daniel and back again, quietly searching for answers she wasn’t ready to give.Daniel stepped back the moment he recognized him, lowering his head respectfully.“Sir.”But Lena didn’t move. Her chest tightened with all the things she had wanted to say for days… and all the things she had tried so hard not to feel.Darius looked at her carefully. “Are you alright?”Lena forced a nod. “Yes.”Her voice came out softer than she intended. She cleared her throat. “I’m fine.”He stepped closer, the distance between them shrinking by slow, steady inches. His eyes stayed on her, warm but guarded.“You look shaken,” he said.She looked away quickly. “I’m just tired. That’s all.”That wasn’t the truth and they both knew it.Darius studied her a little longer. “You’ve been avoiding me.”“I haven’t,” she rep
One Bride, Two Masters A BACKBONE UNDER THREAT
“Lena… stay calm,” Daniel whispered, pressing his hand gently against her arm. His voice was steady, but she could feel the tension in his grip.“I… I can’t believe this,” Lena murmured, her eyes darting toward the door as the handle slowly turned. Her heart pounded against her ribs.Daniel motioned for her to crouch behind the large armchair near the wall. “No sudden moves. Whoever this is, they’re dangerous, but they don’t know we’re aware yet.”Lena pressed herself against the furniture, trying to control the tremble in her legs. “It’s… it’s Grandma. They want her gone because of me,” she whispered, more to herself than to Daniel.Daniel’s jaw tightened. “Exactly. That’s why we can’t rush. If they realize we know, they’ll move faster. And Grandma… she’s our priority.”The footsteps outside slowed, then paused. A shadow fell across the doorway. Lena could see just the tip of polished shoes and the hem of a dark uniform someone moving with purpose.Daniel tilted his head. “Listen car
One Bride, Two Masters THE LIST
“Don’t scream.”The voice was low, familiar, and close enough that Lena felt the warm breath near her ear.She froze, unable to move or speak.“It’s me,” the voice repeated quietly.Lena slowly turned her head and found Daniel, one of the senior guards, standing behind her. His face was tense, his eyes sharp.She let out a shaky breath. “You scared me.”“You shouldn’t be here,” Daniel whispered.“I heard something,” Lena whispered back. “Someone is inside that room. Someone is talking.”Daniel looked past her shoulder toward the unused room. “I know. I’ve been trying to get closer without being noticed.”Lena’s eyes widened. “So you heard it too?”Daniel nodded once. “Enough to know something is wrong.”They both turned their heads slightly toward the doorway.The voice inside the room continued speaking low, calm, but serious. Lena couldn’t make out the words from this distance.Daniel leaned closer. “Stay behind me.”“I’m not going anywhere,” she replied.He hesitated but didn’t arg
One Bride, Two Masters There is More to This Chaos
“Grandma, wait” she finally managed to say.Her voice came out soft but firm enough for Grandma Grace to pause. The old woman looked up, a little confused, but she set the cup down gently.“Is something wrong, dear?” Grandma asked.Lena swallowed. She didn’t want to sound paranoid. She had no proof that anything was wrong with the tea. All she had were whispers she heard in the unused room earlier. Words about a “portion” that “works like fire.” Words that wouldn’t leave her head.“I… I think you should drink water instead,” Lena said carefully.Grandma Grace raised her brows, waiting for an explanation.Lena forced a small smile. “I don’t trust anything coming out of that kitchen right now. With all the noise earlier, the maids were scattered. Someone could have mixed things up.”It wasn’t the complete truth, but it wasn’t a lie either.Grandma nodded slowly. “Ah. I understand. I’ll wait.”Relief washed through Lena’s body. She hadn’t realized how tightly she had been holding her bre
One Bride, Two Masters Disguised Chaos
The sound came first as a distant echo one loud bang, then another.Lena froze in her tracks. She was still with Grandma Grace, who had been telling her stories about her late husband when the noise grew louder.“What is that?” Grandma Grace asked, her voice trembling slightly.“I don’t know,” Lena said, standing quickly.Then came the panic. The shouts of maids filled the hallway. Doors slammed, footsteps rushed. Someone screamed from the corridor, “They’re breaking in! Armed men!”Lena’s heart jumped. She hurried to the window and pushed the curtain aside. From the second floor, she could see the front yard a group of masked men were running around, firing shots in the air. The security guards at the gate were shouting and taking cover.“Grandma, stay back,” Lena said, turning to pull her away from the window. The old woman’s hands shook as she held onto the armrest of her chair.“What is happening, my dear?”“I don’t know,” Lena replied, her voice low. “But please, stay calm. I’ll
