STYGIAN Chapter 45
“She'll lead you to your room,” Paulo said, gesturing towards the housekeeper in the background. Lewis didn't bother to argue anymore. He just wanted to be done with everything that connected him to Derek. But the more he tried to break loose, the more he got intertwined with him. The hallway was quiet as he moved. He didn’t speak. He didn’t ask questions. He just walked. The housekeeper moved ahead of him at a steady pace. She didn’t look back, didn’t try to start a conversation. It was as if she understood that silence was exactly what he needed.Finally, they stopped in front of a door.“This will be your room for the night, sir,” she said politely, stepping aside.Lewis nodded faintly. “Thank you.”She opened the door and gestured for him to enter.Lewis stepped into the perfect room. Everything inside was displayed as if it was just prepared for him. “Dinner will be brought to you if you need it,” the housekeeper said. “I’m fine,” he replied quietly.She nodded once and left

Lewis didn’t remember the drive. All he knew was that his hands had been tight on the steering wheel, his jaw was clenched, and his thoughts ran in circles that all led back to one name.Derek.By the time he pulled up in front of the mansion, his anger hadn’t cooled. If anything, it became hotter. The gate opened without question. That alone irritated him more because it felt like they had expected him to show up… Like he was already part of something he never agreed to.He parked roughly, stepping out of the car, barely containing his frustration. His steps were quick and uneven, driven more by his anger. The door opened before he could knock, and the staff stepped aside silently, letting him in.That annoyed him too. Everything about this place annoyed him. He thought he wouldn't have a reason to come back there. He thought he was done with everything that concerned Derek. But Derek clearly didn't get it. And his house?It was too quiet and calm for someone who had just cause
STYGIAN Chapter 43
For days, Lewis had buried himself in work. He did everything to occupy his mind from thinking about Barbie. From calling, texting or visiting her. Despite his ever present self at work, he was asked to go home. They actually begged him to take a leave from work. Reluctantly, he went home and forced himself to sleep. Even in sleep, his body didn’t fully relax, like it was waiting for something to go wrong.And it did.A loud bang shattered the quiet, jerking him awake. For a moment, he didn’t know where he was. His eyes struggled to adjust, his mind slow and foggy as the sound echoed again. Instantly, his heart began to race.Was he about to be robbed? He wondered as he struggled to push himself out of bed. But before he could successfully get out, the door burst open with a loud slam. Faster than his mind could work, he sprinted toward the door. And there she was with eyes blazing with fury, standing there, breathing hard as if she had just lifted a heavy load. Lewis rubbed hi

The mall was alive with conversations from every corner. Their voices overlapped as everyone talked at once. Soft music played in the background through hidden cameras. And the sharp rhythm of the ladies' heels clicked on the polished floor as they went from roll to roll. Barbie walked at the center of the mall like she belonged there. Her confidence and polished presence drew attention without her even trying. Two of her friends walked beside her, both equally dressed for attention, their arms filled with shopping bags that swung lightly with each step they took.“Wait, wait…no,” one of them said, laughing. “That bag is not worth that price.”“It is,” Barbie replied, flipping her hair slightly. “You just don’t understand quality.”“Or you just like expensive things,” the other teased.Barbie smirked. “Same difference.”They stopped in front of a glass display, the reflection of their perfectly curated appearances staring back at them.“That one,” Barbie said, pointing at the red ba

“I don't like that woman,” Paulo said, his irritation evident in his voice. Derek didn't talk. Instead, he started walking towards his room. “She's overdoing it,” Paulo added as he trailed closely behind Derek. “I know,” Derek said without looking at him. Paulo shook his head. “Do you?” Derek stopped, then turned. His eyes stayed on Paulo for a fleeting second before he continued walking. “You're overdoing it,” Derek finally said. “How?” Paulo asked. “I'm not the one walking around someone else's house, as if I've known them all my life. She's not even cautious about her speech and attitude.”“And you are?” Derek asked him flatly. “This is not the time for this, Derek,” Paulo said, his frustration spiking. “You are the one preventing me from letting her know her place in this house.” “And what exactly would you have done if I gave you the chance?” Derek asked, glancing at him once. “I'll just make sure she's not too comfortable. Remind her of her place and make her watch her

Whenever he was in his gym, Derek never rushed his movements.As he did each rep, his muscles tightened, releasing and stretching under the strain. Sweat traced slowly down his shoulders, across his chest, disappearing beneath the waistband of his shorts.This was one of the few places where things made sense, and his efforts showed clear results.He lifted again.Exhaled.Then set the bar down with a quiet thud.The moment he lifted his head, he noticed Raine.She didn’t walk in like someone unsure. She didn’t even hesitate at the doorway. She moved through the space like she had been there before. Like she knew where everything was and where everything belonged.Derek watched her for a moment before speaking.“Someone is getting too familiar.”Raine stopped mid-step and turned to him. There was a flicker of surprise on her face, but it faded quickly.“I live here,” she said simply.Derek reached for a towel, wiping the sweat from his face.“Not long enough to know every corner.”Rai

Derek sat behind the large desk in his office, his fingers loosely tapping against the table as he listened to the man sitting across from him.“Our package couldn't pass the border last night,” Mr Marina said.Mr Marina is like the face of Derek's illegal business. It all started when Paulo was to

“Get him,” Derek ordered. Paulo left without saying a word. There was no time to waste in situations like that. They've never gotten themselves into something like this before. While Paulo was gone, Derek thought of all possible ways to get rid of Lewis without drawing attention from the public.
STYGIAN chapter 12
Derek’s eyes stay on Lewis for only a moment before his expression changes. He doesn't have to say much before Lewis can understand that he was in trouble. “Paulo.” Derek calls. Paulo entered immediately. “What did I say about this young man? He asked. Derek got no response from Paulo but his e
STYGIAN chapter 11
Paulo led Lewis down another long hallway after leaving Derek’s room. The mansion felt even larger in the morning light, though the heavy curtains kept most of the sun from entering. Their footsteps echoing faintly against the polished marble floor.Lewis' body remained stiff as he walked behind Pa
