The launch party for "Vera's Spring Collection" was the talk of the town.

The grand ballroom was decorated with thousands of white lilies. Serenity stood in the center, wearing a shimmering silver gown that she designed herself. She looked ethereal, like a goddess descended from the moon.

Jackson stood beside her, his hand firmly placed on the small of her back. He was acting as her shield, glaring at any man who dared to stare at his wife for too long.

"Relax, Jackson," Serenity whispered, pin

  • Pregnant With The Ex-Husband's Twins   Chapter 217: Bonus Story - The Ultimate Heist

    The Sterling Manor was supposed to be a place of unbreakable rules and impenetrable security. But today, its defenses were being severely tested by a four-year-old in a Batman onesie.Julian Sterling, son of Alex and Cassandra, stood at the entrance of the Grand Pantry. His arms were crossed over his tiny chest, his eyebrows knitted in intense concentration behind his plastic blue glasses."Objective," Julian whispered to himself. "The high-fructose strawberry gummy bear jar. Altitude: twelve feet. Defensive measures: Level-four laser grid, pressure sensors, and Grandma Margaret’s constant vigilance."He pulled a customized smart-tablet out of his diaper bag. He began to type rapidly."Alex locked it," a voice said from the kitchen counter.Julian jumped, spinning around.Nova, his seventeen-year-old aunt, was sitting cross-legged on the marble island, eating an apple. Her violet eyes were amused. She wore a casual oversized hoodie and no shoes. Since the war ended, she was learning h

    (Bonus Story 1)The Mediterranean Sea was a perfect, crystal-clear sapphire under the midday sun.Floating gracefully on the calm water was the Sovereign Serenity, Jackson’s four-hundred-foot mega-yacht. It was a masterpiece of naval engineering, featuring everything from a cinema to an indoor botanical garden.But currently, the most powerful man in the world was standing on the aft deck, arguing with a seagull."This is private property," Jackson Sterling warned the bird, which was aggressively eyeballing his plate of fresh caviar and toast. "I bought the airspace above this ship. Technically, you are trespassing."The seagull squawked defiantly and hopped closer to the plate."Don't test me. I will buy your entire island and pave it," Jackson narrowed his dark eyes.A soft, melodic laugh broke the standoff.Serenity emerged from the master suite, wearing a flowing, semi-sheer white cover-up over her swimsuit. She carried two glasses of iced champagne. The sea breeze played with her

    Pier 88, Manhattan. A Glorious Summer Morning.The harbor was alive with sunlight reflecting off the deep blue waves. A massive, towering vessel was slowly navigating its way to the docks.It was the Sovereign Serenity, returning to New York after ten glorious, incident-free years of sailing across the world.A massive crowd waited on the pier, but there were no press passes allowed today. It was a private gathering of a very large, very powerful family.The boarding ramp lowered to the ground with a heavy metallic clank.Jackson Sterling, stepping onto American soil for the first time in a decade, looked incredibly sharp. His hair was entirely silver now, lending him an aura of ultimate, undisputed authority. He offered his hand.Serenity stepped down next to him. She was glowing, wearing a white summer dress, her timeless beauty undisturbed by the years."Grandpa!"A loud, excited shout rang through the crowd.Julian (13) ran up the ramp. The young genius had ditched the preppy suit

    Ten Years Later.Deep in the Andes Mountains, Peru.The air inside the ancient, unmapped temple was thick with dust and secrets that hadn't seen the light of day for three thousand years."Watch your step," Ash said, shining a high-powered, shoulder-mounted halogen flashlight into the gloom. He was twenty-eight now, rugged, broad-shouldered, and wearing a leather exploration jacket equipped with dozens of hidden tech-pouches."I can see fine in the dark, Ash," Nova replied.At twenty-five, Nova Sterling was a breathtaking force of nature. She wore practical cargo pants and a tank top. She didn't need a flashlight. Her eyes glowed with a faint, controlled violet light that illuminated the stone corridor.They reached a massive circular stone door blocking the main burial chamber. It weighed at least twenty tons.Ash pulled out a portable laser cutter. "Give me about two hours to slice through the locking mechanism. I can probably bypass the counterweights if I—""Ash, put the laser awa

    Pier 88, Manhattan. One Month Later.The Sovereign Serenity was not just a yacht. It was a marvel of modern engineering.Moored at the VIP dock, the massive silver-and-white vessel gleamed in the morning sun. It was 400 feet long, featuring a glass-bottomed observation deck, two helipads, and a cascading waterfall pool on the aft deck.A small crowd stood on the pier. It wasn't the press—Jackson had banned them. It was just the family."It’s too big," Mia commented, shading her eyes with her sunglasses. "If pirates attack, clearing all those decks will take at least twenty minutes.""Pirates?" Kian wrapped an arm around his wife’s waist. "Mia, the hull is reinforced with military-grade titanium. If pirates ram it, their boat will shatter like glass."Jackson stood at the bottom of the boarding ramp, looking incredibly relaxed in a linen shirt and chinos. Serenity stood beside him, wearing a wide-brimmed sun hat and a flowing white summer dress.Behind them, Luke and Sebastian were alr

    The Sterling Estate. One Week After Graduation.Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.The antique grandfather clock in the hallway sounded unnaturally loud.Serenity was sitting in the sunroom, enjoying a cup of jasmine tea and reading a thick novel. It was noon on a Tuesday. The house was empty. The staff moved silently like ghosts.Jackson paced back and forth in front of the window. He checked his watch. He checked his phone. He stared at the ceiling."Jackson," Serenity turned a page. "If you wear a hole in that Persian rug, I’m making you weave a new one yourself.""It's too quiet," Jackson muttered, stopping to glare at a very peaceful, un-moving vase of flowers. "Nova sent a text saying they reached a motel in Vermont. That took exactly two seconds to read. Alex hasn't called because he is 'optimizing the European server grid'. Mia is doing weapons training in Japan. And Aurora is passing tax laws."He dramatically flopped onto the sofa next to his wife."They abandoned us, Serenity. We are

    The tunnel ended abruptly.Jackson stopped at the edge of a precipice. He fired a flare gun into the darkness.Sizzle...The red flare drifted down, illuminating a space so vast it defied logic.They stood on the edge of a massive underground volcanic crater. Far below, violet magma bubbled, castin
