Nyx’s POV

The hospital corridors smelled of disinfectant and sorrow. I pushed the door open, as the door shut behind me, Machines hummed. My daughter lay pale, unmoving, my little girl laid lifeless before me...

Her small chest rose and fell beneath the sheets, steady but fragile, as though even breathing was too much to ask of her.

I sat by her bed and broke.

The tears I had fought in front of Renz, the tears I buried under liquor and anger—they came spilling now. My sobs cracked.

  • THE DEVIL'S MISTRESS   Who hates tablets?....

    Marco quickly grabbed a pillow and threw it at me, I didn't dodge, the pillow hit my chest and dropped to the floor. I smiled at him, "Violent." "You deserved it." I chuckled before bending to pick up the pillow. "But then why didn't you tell me about Rynna?" Marco's expression became more serious. "I only confronted Camila about her after everything with Gabe." "So you_" "I didn't think it was my place." he shrugged, "I was already hurting, and Rynna was part of Camila's personal life. I didn't think I had the right to start asking questions." I nodded slowly, "So you initially thought Rynna was Camila's daughter?" "I did." Than made me laughed, "Seriously?" "She looks like Camila." He shrugged again "If you look closely, you can see it." I smiled. "She also copies some of your traits."he added. "Some of your expressions. The way she looks at people when she's annoyed." I laughed under my breath, "That's definitely my daughter." Marco smiled "Yeah." My phone suddenly buzze

  • THE DEVIL'S MISTRESS   What made the shadow!

    He nods gently. "We're forever in this, boss." then he straightened slightly, his voice carrying the kind of certainty that didn't need a second explanation.I looked at him for a moment before turning toward the table. I poured myself another drink, letting the silence settle between us, the tension in the room had finally begun to fade."There's something you still don't know about me," I said.Marco glanced at me, "I know you're from a wealthy family.""That's the easy part." I took a sip. "You know I left home and built everything from scratch. You probably assumed it was because I wanted to prove I could.""Wasn't that the reason?"I shook my head, "Not exactly." Marco's eyes narrowed as I leaned against the table. "I was bullied for years." His expression changed. "Being a wealthy heir didn't make me immune to anything. If anything, it made me an easier target." I stared at the drink in my hand."They found every insecurity I had and used it against me. For years, I took it." M

  • THE DEVIL'S MISTRESS   What we became!

    I decided to pay marco a visit from work, I found him sitting comfortably on his couch when I arrived. He looked better than he had days ago. Still thinner, still recovering, but the man was finally beginning to look like himself again. He looked at me for a moment before shaking his head with a smile. "It's still unbelievable." I raised an eyebrow. "What is?" "You." "Me?" "You're getting married." I scoffed. "Don't sound so surprised." Marco laughed. "How am I not supposed to be surprised? You? Finally getting married?" "Yes, and I can't wait." "That's what makes it worse." He leaned back. "For all the long I've known you, Renz. I never thought I'd see the day you'd willingly tie yourself to one woman." "She's not just one woman." His smile grew as he picked up his glass and took a drink before looking at me again. "How are Rynna and the twins?" "We spoke before I came here." "Everything okay?" "Yeah." I smiled faintly. "They're fine." Marco nodded, then his

  • THE DEVIL'S MISTRESS   A kingdom called family

    Renz's PovThe moment we stepped outside the house, I felt like I could finally breathe again, a weight I hadn't realized I'd been carrying all day seemed to lift from my shoulders.Her parents had accepted me, not completely, not without conditions...but enough.Enough for me to know that I wasn't fighting for Nyx alone anymore. I reached for her hand, and she let me take it, we walked quietly side by side toward my car, the cool night air brushing against my face. I wasn't thinking about enemies, money, or the next move. I was thinking about her. When we reached the car, I leaned against it and pulled her closer.Her body felt cold.I frowned. "Why are you cold?" She looked up at me, her expression softer than before. "I'm not cold.""Nyx."She sighed. "I still can't believe you're really giving up everything."A smile pulled at my lips. "Forget the empire.""Renz—""I mean it." I brushed my thumb over her fingers. "I'd give up my own life if it meant keeping you and Rynna safe." S

  • THE DEVIL'S MISTRESS   The King choose love

    Dad stared at him. “Even without my approval?” Renz's eyes darkened. “If you make me choose between your approval and my family, I will choose my family.” My breath caught, and dad's face hardened even more. “Is that a threat?” “No.” Renz's voice became dangerously calm. “It's assurance.” I touched his arm. “Renz…”He glanced at me briefly, then returned his attention to Dad. “I don't want a war with my in-laws. I don't want to fight you. But I won't lose my family just because you don't like the man I became.”Dad leaned back slowly. “So you are prepared to drag my daughter and granddaughter into this life no matter what I say?”Renz's expression changed. “No.” The answer came immediately. “I'll leave it.” The room went completely still, I stared at him.Dad frowned. “What?”Renz looked directly at him. “I'll leave it.” I could barely breathe, he continued calmly. “The empire. The illegal operations. Everything I've built that keeps bringing danger to my door.” He paused, “
