"Damien!" Cinthye's scream tore through the ballroom.

Everything seemed to stop. All of it faded beneath the sound of her voice.

On the balcony above Victor Lang stretched his lips into a smile. Satisfied seeing her reaction. "Goodbye, Damien." His finger tightened on the trigger.

"No!"

A second shot rang out. The entire room exploded into confusion.

"Who got hit?"

"Where's Damien?!"

"Get down!"

"Move!"

Cinthye shoved people aside, ignoring the pain buying her skin. Completely ignori

    The guard collapsed without a sound.For one terrible second, nobody moved.Then the sanctuary exploded."North ridge!""Take cover!""Shields up!""Move, move, move!"Hidden warriors flooded the courtyard.Wooden doors slammed shut.Ancient bells screamed across the mountains.Cinthye reached for the pistol at her waist.Damien caught her wrist immediately."Stay behind me.""Absolutely not.""Cinthye—""I'm not hiding while someone shoots at us."Another shot cracked through the valley.BANG.A stone lantern shattered beside them.Fragments sprayed across the courtyard.Master Aurelio didn't even flinch."Inside," he ordered."We're being attacked," Cinthye snapped."No," the old man replied. "We're being measured."Silence.Even Damien frowned."Explain."Aurelio pointed toward the ridge."If they wanted us dead, the second shot would have taken one of you."Another pause."They're announcing themselves."Well.That was somehow worse.---An hour later, the sanctuary sat under lock

    "I was there." The shadow matriarch begins, her voice shaking a little. The words refused to leave Cinthye's head.Repeating itself a million yimes. Like a curse. Like a wound that refused to heal. Like a bullet still lodged inside her chest."I was there."Her mother's trembling voice haunted every corner of her mind.The footages, the hidden shooter. the lies and secrets they sacrificed lives for. Was it even worth it? She wanted to ask yet her voice won't come out. Everything she thought she knew had shattered.And for the first time in months—Nobody had answers.Three days have past since the chaos a private helicopter landed in the mountains. The blades slowed gradually noise faded into the background. Silence swallowed the world. Cinthye stepped onto the grass. "Wow."Mountains stretched endlessly before her. Ancient forests covered the valleys. Waterfalls cut through cliffs. Mist drifted across the horizon.For a moment—the war disappeared.The blood disappeared, theunderworld d

Satisfied seeing her reaction. "Goodbye, Damien." His finger tightened on the trigger. "No!" A second shot rang out. The entire room exploded into confusion. "Who got hit?" "Where's Damien?!" "Get down!" "Move!" Cinthye shoved people aside, ignoring the pain buying her skin. Completely ignoring everything. "Damien!" Her voice sliced through the tension, her hazel eyes glistening with tears she was afraid. A hand suddenly grabbed her waist. "Cinthye."She froze slowly turning to look for the source then Damien was standing behind her, completely uninjured. For a second she couldn't breathe. "You idiot!" Her palm slammed against his chest, her nails clutching the fabric of his top crinkling the corners. "What the hell is wrong with you?!" Damien blinked. "What?" "I thought you go

    "I don't think Adrian Reyes is an actor." Nicholas muttered holding the photographs in his hands. Shaking them a bit and then looking into them again to make sure they didn't miss something. The words echoed through the war room like a gunshot. Because Adrian Reyes—the charming co-star, the internet's newest obsession, Hollywood's golden boy—was staring back at them from a classified surveillance photograph. Holding a file marked: ARCHIVES. How did it get there and what is his intentions? Is he a friend or a foe? it was too soon to decide. Romnick was the first to recover. "Nope."Cinthye side eyed, her eyes warning him not to do something stupid in this type of situation. But Romnick being himself he did not listen. "Nope." Still nothing. Romnick pointed at the screen. "I reject this reality." Aiva raised her brow and crossed her arms. "Unfortunately, reality doesn't care." "I want a refund." "Denied." Aiva snorted. James buried his face in his hands trying to grasp the momen

    Cinthye never leaving his ocean blue orbs. Her lips pursed shut unable to speak. Damien met her gaze. For the first time—there was vulnerability there in it's very depths. The genuine pain, sadness and something she did not dare to name. "I didn't know until years later." He confessed. "I tried to verify it. I couldn't." The confession hurt more than she expected because he wasn't defending himself. He was not making excuses to cover it up. He was not trying to manipulate her to put himself in a pedestal because of the act he was able to wear every day. He was simply telling the truth which somehow that made it worse. She could feel his emotions. he wasn't ready yet. he won't open up completely. at least not for now. The emergency monitors exploded, booming across the different directions of halls including the one they are in. Every screen turned red. The war interrupted them again, of course it did. The timing was almost insulting. Another problem arising. Nicholas'

    "They'll discover who ordered Cinthye's father's murder." Cinthye looked at the space, the words echoing inside her head. Damien remained silent beside her, unmoving and focused elsewhere. Because Damien's expression had become terrifying. He did not look angry or furious.Not murderous. That was the surface level feeling she sensed but Cinthye knew better than that. Deep inside Damien he was planning something. He had always been a man of a few words and Cinthye knew that better than anyone. He did not talk because he's not ready to talk. This topic was sensitive. Everything about family triggers both of them. Cinthye wished that she could grab his hand, hug and offer some support. But silence and her presence is what he needs now. Cinthye did that. She didn't want to be a distraction to him. She wanted to be his catalyst for growth. Even now she can't believe she became his wife.
