THE DEVIL'S MISTRESS The gathering!
"Come on!" "I'm coming! You don't have to drag me!" "Then move faster!" "I shot her a look as we hurried down the stairs. "I hope you know that if I trip and fall, I'm taking you with me." She laughed. "You wouldn't dare." "Try me sis." We reached the bottom of the stairs, and the voices coming from outside made my heart beat a little faster. Camila immediately turned towards me. "I'll go get mom and dad," she said, already heading upstairs towards our parent's part of the house. "You handle the door!" "Camila, wait—" She didn't even turn around, I sighed and stood there for a second, wondering whether my sister had always been this insufferable or whether she'd recently taken lessons. Then I heard Rynna's voice outside. My daughter. Whatever nervousness I'd been feeling immediately softened into excitement. I hurried towards the door, stopping just in front of it to take a deep breath. Renz's parents, Marco and an entire entourage I hadn't been informe
THE DEVIL'S MISTRESS Four cars at the door
"It answers everything." "Camila." "Nyx." I gave her a look, she burst out laughing. "Relax. You'll find out soon enough." "That's exactly what you've birxeen saying all day." "And look at you. You're still here." "Only because I'm too tired to drag you to Mom and ask her to deal with you." "She would take my side." "Of course she would." Camila grinned before turning back to the mirror. I said nothing more.At this point, arguing with her was a waste of my remaining energy. So I settled into silence, watching as she adjusted the dress at her waist, turned sideways, then frowned at her reflection again. "Well?" she asked. I raised an eyebrow. "Well, what?" "How do I look?" "You haven't even turned around properly." She turned. The dress was simple, but it suited her beautifully. It was a soft lilac shade that fell just below her knees, with delicate flowers scattered across the fabric. The fitted waist gave it a lovely shape, while the short, slightly puffed sleeves
THE DEVIL'S MISTRESS A dress rehearsal
Nyx's Pov I should have known something was wrong the moment Camila suggested we visit the salon. My sister hadn't merely suggested it. She'd practically dragged me there, insisting that we both needed a new look. By the time we returned home, exhausted from hours of having our hair done, she was still full of energy. I, on the other hand, wanted nothing more than a shower, comfortable clothes, and a few uninterrupted hours of rest. Unfortunately, Camila had other plans. First, she insisted we cook. And when I say cook, I don't mean preparing a few dishes for dinner. She wanted options. Different meals, different sides, different everything. Before long, our kitchen smelled like a restaurant preparing for a busy evening, and I was beginning to question whether my sister had secretly opened a catering business without informing me. Even our mother had noticed. "Camila, why are you making so much food?" she asked, looking over the dishes we'd prepared. "Are we expecting guests?
THE DEVIL'S MISTRESS a granddaughter at Last
My mother waved a hand at me. “Yes, yes. And you’ve given me enough trouble for one day.” Rynna burst into laughter. I stared at her. “You’re laughing at me, little fire?” She shook her head quickly, though her smile betrayed her. “No, Daddy.” “Of course not.” My mother drew Rynna closer to her side, looking far too pleased with herself. “I think she has excellent taste.” “Apparently, everyone does except me.” That earned another round of laughter. “There’s something else,” I said, drawing their attention back to me. “I’ll arrange a place here so we can talk properly before we leave. We need to discuss the wedding and how we’re going to approach Nyx’s parents.” My mother nodded. “That’s sensible. We can’t arrive there without knowing what we’re going to say.” My father folded his arms. “Finally, something we agree on.” He paused, then glanced at my mother and Rynna. “I’ll come with you while you arrange the room. That way, the men can discuss the wedding preparations whi
THE DEVIL'S MISTRESS I'm ready to marry her
“Come here, sweetheart,” mom said softly, holding out her hand to Rynna. Rynna glanced at me. I gave her a reassuring nod, and she slowly released my hand before moving towards her grandmother. My mother took her little hand, then guided her towards the edge of the bed. “Now, tell me, Rynna. How old are you?” “Six.” “Six?” She widened her eyes playfully. “And you're already this beautiful? What am I going to do when you turn sixteen?” Rynna giggled. “You'll still love me, Grandma.” My mother pressed a hand to her chest. “Oh, my goodness! Listen to this girl. She's already stealing my heart.” “Daddy says I'm his little fire.” “Does he?” She glanced at me, then lowered her voice conspiratorially. “Well, between you and me, I think you might be a little angel.” Rynna leaned closer to her. “Daddy says I'm naughty sometimes.” My mother laughed. “Then perhaps you're an angel who needs a little discipline.” “Grandma!” Their laughter filled the room, and something inside me loos
THE DEVIL'S MISTRESS And You Show Up with a Child?
She pulled back slightly, her hands still resting on my arms.“How have you been, my boy?” she asked, with a softness only a mother could manage.I couldn't answer. I simply watched her.She was still beautiful, her hair framing her face perfectly despite the silk bathrobe she wore. But time had left its marks. A few strands of grey showed through her hair, and when I looked into her eyes, I noticed something I hadn't expected.She was getting older.“Mom,” I murmured.Her expression softened further.“How have you been, Lorenz? I heard whispers that your business suffered huge losses recently, but you never called.” She brushed a hand over my arm. “I tried calling you a thousand times, but I couldn't reach you anymore.”“It was nothing, Mom.”She scoffed. “Your brother assured me during his last visit that everything was under control, but I still couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong. It was as if you had stopped existing.”Her voice faltered. I couldn't find a single
THE DEVIL'S MISTRESS The weight of her hatred
Gabriel’s PovThe place was a mess.I stood there with Sandro and a few of the men, staring at what was left...trying to understand what I was seeing. Drawers torn out. The safe empty. Blood dried into the floor like a warning carved in red.“How did this happen?” I asked.Sandro shook his head. “

*Six Months Later*Renz's PovMarco stood across the table, calm as ever.“Everything’s moving,” he said. “Our guest will arrive soon.”I exhaled slowly, letting the breath steady the storm in my chest. Then I asked the only thing that mattered.“And Nyx?”Marco didn’t rush his answer. That alone t

Gabriel's PovEver since the news of Renz’s death dropped, something inside me loosened. Relief… finally. A sense of order returning, like the world had clicked back into the place I designed for it.Except for one problem.Nyx.She’d spiraled the moment she heard. Crying for days. Skipping meals.

Renz's PovI woke up to silence.Thick. Cold. Endless. The kind that presses against your chest till you forget what air feels like. My head spun as I blinked, trying to tell if my eyes were open or shut. The dark was that deep.The cell smelled of mold, metal, and blood that wasn’t just mine.For
