It had been weeks since she last heard from her family, ever since the incident involving Vincent Bianchi.
“Is that how you greet your own mother?” Eric said as he walked toward them, a faint smirk on his lips. “Or have you already picked up Rafael’s cold-hearted ways?”
Seren frowned, her eyes narrowing at him.

Just as Eric had promised, he called for a gathering of all the leaders under the De Luna organization.He invited them to the mansion.The meeting would be held there, and that very night, he planned to execute Rafael’s removal as the head of De Luna.For weeks, Eric had already been working behind the scenes, meeting the leaders one by one, quietly earning their sympathy. He knew Rafael’s youth would work against him. It made the others easier to sway.From her room, Seren watched as one car after another arrived at the mansion.It was unusual.The leaders rarely gathered there, despite it being the organization’s main headquarters. Most of the time, when Bernard called for a meeting, it was held in hotel conference halls.But tonight was different. Tonight, they were all here. Seren couldn’t hide her unease.Even though Eric had assured her that everything was under control, she couldn’t shake the fear creeping into her ches

“Because I want you to wake up,” Eric replied. “Before you start falling for them.”His tone turned colder.“You should know who they really are. Were you invited to that leaders’ conference?” he asked. “Did you see Rafael’s little ‘display of power’? He pretended to poison a man right in front of everyone.”Seren’s eyes flickered.“And Bernard?” Eric continued. “Did you see his reaction? Nothing. As if it meant nothing at all.”He gave a quiet, humorless chuckle.“They waste money like it’s nothing, even that auction. That wasn’t generosity. It was a performance. Rafael wanted everyone to see what he’s capable of.” His gaze darkened. “He doesn’t care who gets hurt.”A beat passed before he spoke again.“Tell me this,” he said. “Why would Bernard bother educating someone like you? Someone unknown from a poor family?” His voice lowered. “Do you really believe they’ve accepted you?”Seren froze.“That brooch?” he ad

She didn’t know what he was planning, but whatever it was, dragging her parents into it crossed a line.“I wouldn’t be surprised if you’re the reason she’s here,” she said coldly.Eric only smiled. “You’re a clever girl.”He turned to her mother. “Now you see it for yourself. This is what she’s become. That family…” he paused deliberately,“…they’re not a good influence on her. I understand your circumstances forced you to sell Seren to Bernard… but look at what they

“How is life,” Eric said from the doorway, “as the future wife of a mafia prince?”Seren froze. She turned slowly and saw him leaning against the doorframe, watching her as if he had been there for a while. The smell of breakfast still lingered in the kitchen, but the air suddenly felt heavier.Eric had been staying in the mansion for days now. And he showed no intention of leaving.“Don’t look so surprised,” he went on, pushing himself off the frame and stepping inside. “You’ll have to get used to seeing me. I plan to stay… at least until I take over De Luna.”Seren said nothing.“You look innocent,” he added, studying her. “At a glance.”He stepped closer. “But are you really?”Before she could react, his hand settled on her waist. Seren flinched. She immediately stepped back, pulling away from him as if burned.Eric laughed

“Uncle Eric.”Rafael stopped the moment he saw him inside their mansion. Kim, who stood just behind him, froze as well.They had come straight from the hospital after Rafael received a call from his father. Come to the mansion. We need to talk. That was all Bernard said. It was enough for Rafael to ignore his injury and leave without getting admitted.He didn’t expect this.Standing in the middle of the room was the man he hadn’t seen in years.Eric was not a blood relative, but he had been raised alongside Bernard like a brother. He was the son of a loyal subordinate who died saving Bernard’s father. To repay that debt, the old man took Eric in and raised him as his own.Then, one day, he left.No explanation. No return.Until now.“You look surprised,” Eric said, a faint smile forming on his lips.His eyes shifted to the woman beside Rafael.Rafael noticed it immediately. Without hesitation, he reached for Seren’s hand and subtly pulled her behind him.Seren glanced at him, confused

“Is Anna with her family?” Rafael asked once they were far enough, his voice steadier than the blood quietly seeping through his side.He shifted in his seat. And felt it. Warm. Spreading.Damn. The curse stayed in his head as his fingers brushed the wound beneath his coat. The bullet had found him after all, right where he had shielded Seren.“Yes, Boss,” the driver replied.“Good,” Rafael murmured, leaning his head back against the seat. “Take us there.”“No.” The word cut clean through the air.Rafael’s eyes opened. Slowly, he turned to Seren.“Why are you looking at me like that?” she asked, catching his gaze.“Nothing,” he said, looking away just as quickly. “I’ll give you time to see your family. I know you’re worried. You don’t have to---”“You’re wounded. She cut him off, her voice firm.“You need to go to the hospital.”Rafael stilled for a second. Then a smirk tugged at his lips.“You’re worried?” he asked, almost teasing.“This is your chance to run from me. I told you befo

“Rafael.” Seren’s voice came out in surprise the moment she stepped into the mansion and saw him seated in the dining hall with his father. “Seren, hija, you’re back,” the old man greeted warmly. “Come, join us.” She didn’t respond. Silently, she walked over and took the empty seat beside Rafael.

“Marry me.”The words hung in the air, heavy and unreal.Seren blinked, her thoughts stalling as she stared at Dean. For a moment, she wondered if she had misheard him. But the look on his face, earnest, unguarded, told her otherwise. He was serious.A strange feeling settled in her chest.Yes, she
