Lyra’s POV

In the afternoon

I was standing in the hallway thinking of how I will go see my parents. I know they must be looking for me.

“Lyra!” Zane’s voice rang out. “You planning to starve to death and haunt the hallway?”

I can say from the time Zane arrived, he is freindly. His words brighten my day.

I forced a smile and stepped in.

Lillian’s face lit up. “Mommy, sit by me!”

Lucian didn’t look at me, didn’t acknowledge my existence beyond the tension that immediately settled over the room like a cold fog.

Zane patted the chair beside him. “Right here, bride of doom.”

I sat quietly, hands in my lap. The scent of roasted vegetables and buttered rice turned my empty stomach, but I couldn’t eat.

“Something wrong?” Zane asked after a few minutes. He’d stopped mid-bite, his sharp eyes scanning my face.

I hesitated.

Lucian didn’t look up, but I saw the muscle in his jaw twitch.

“I… I want to see my parents,” I said quietly. “It’s been days. I don’t know how they’re doing, and no one has g

    He turned back to her and shook his head.“I’m sorry for all the past, dear… oh, sorry, Lyra,” Lucian said.Lyra’s eyes widened. “Dear?”“Why the sudden change? when it’s too late, Lucian?” Lyra said with a drunk voice.He smiled, taking a step toward her.“I have never bowed my head to anyone before. If you won’t forgive me, you will surely do so if I shower you with my gentle touch and actions,” he said, reaching around her to grab the soap and sponge. His arms brushed against her naked flesh with every move he made, and she tried desperately to shield her body’s eager reaction from him, folding her arms over the hard, red tips of her breasts.“Then you have to change your plan,” she continued desperately, watching as he applied the soap to the sponge. He remained focused on the sponge in his hand.“Let’s see.” His voice sounded a little strange and his expression was neutral. When he looked up again, he gently started running the sponge over her folded arms.“You abused me, you ra

    Lyra’s POV“As your father, it’s a command that you must follow him.”The words struck like a hammer, firm, unyielding. My father’s voice carried that weight that always made me freeze as a little girl, yet tonight it only churned my anger.“Oh, Dad, what did he do to you that makes you so blind?” I shouted, my throat trembling with suppressed tears. “How can you stand here and tell me to follow him after everything? Did you forget he’s behind everything that ruined my life?”The room fell into heavy silence. Nobody breaths. The walls themselves seemed to hold their breath, watching the storm that cracked open inside me.Then—Mom broke. Her cry shattered that silence. She covered her face with both hands, shoulders trembling. “So I cannot beg you? Cannot look for one favor from my own daughter?” Her voice cracked, begging. “This is the only way you can be safe. Please, Lyra. Please.”Her tears rolled, but it was her next words that tore me open.“Or should we kneel for you?”The sight

    Third Person POvSurprisingly Zane left the room picking up call.Lyra’s hand trembled so much she could barely keep the phone steady. Her throat tightened as the line rang, every second stretching like eternity. She kept darting glances toward the door, terrified Zane would suddenly barge back inside.The ring kept going. No one picked. Her heartbeat thudded louder than her own breath.She was about to drop the phone back when suddenly the line clicked and a voice answered.“Hello?”Her heart froze. It wasn’t her mother’s voice. It wasn’t even her father’s.It was Lucian.Lyra’s lips parted, anger flaring instantly, almost overpowering her fear. “What—what are you doing with my phone?” she whispered harshly, clutching the device so tightly it hurt her palm. “Why do you have it? Give it to my parents!”On the other end, Lucian’s voice was low but urgent, straining against emotion. “Lyra, listen to me. I have it with me for some reasons. Just—just tell me where you are. Please. I’ll

    Lucian’s POV“I want to go out from here! Please—help me!”The desperate voice pierced through the room, sharp. My heart jolted. I pushed myself up from the chair, my legs heavy but fueled by sudden urgency.I followed the direction of the cry, my footsteps echoing against the marble floor. Zane, to my shock, didn’t stop me. Instead, he trailed behind in silence, his smirk increasing, his eyes unreadable.We reached a door on the far end of the room. Without hesitation, Zane stepped forward and placed his palm on the lock. The door slid open with a hiss.The sight before me left me frozen.Inside the room, more than five ladies were sprawled across the floor, tied hand and leg with thick ropes. Their clothes were torn, their faces pale and gaunt. The air reeked of sweat and tears. Their eyes widened when they saw me, some pleading, some too broken to react at all.My words caught in my throat. I wanted to say something, anything, but the horror silenced me.“You all here,” Zane began,

    Lucian’s POVI was so surprised to see that the gate opened freely without anyone stopping us. For a moment, I sat still in the car, my hand tightening on the steering wheel as though I needed to ground myself. Something wasn’t right. Places like this were never left open—especially not bobonishe’s place.I killed the engine and got out, the guard stepping out behind me. His boots crunched on the gravel, echoing far too loudly in the silence that cloaked the compound.There were no guards. No gateman. No movement. Not even the sound of birds. The place felt… abandoned, yet not abandoned. The kind of silence that made your skin crawl, the kind that whispered danger.The guard shifted uneasily beside me. “Are you sure we’re at the right place?” he asked, scanning the compound like he expected shadows to leap at us.I just gave a small nod, though doubt twisted inside me. My eyes were already locked on the massive glass door ahead. The surface was strange—nothing reflected back at us, no

    Third Person POV.As Zane stood tall, bare-chested, Lyra instinctively stepped back, her spine pressing into the wall. Her breath came fast, shallow. Zane's gaze slid to her and settled there, dark and steady."Don't worry, I'm not touching you now," he said, lips curling into something between a smirk and a threat. "Not till tonight."Then, without a care in the world, he turned to the lady who was sucking him. The lady moaned as Zane grabbed her hips and pulled her toward him. She spread her legs instantly, inviting him in. Zane didn’t hesitate. He positioned himself at her entrance, gripping her thighs tightly as he thrust into her in one brutal motion. Her back arched as she cried out, her nails digging into the couch.Zane grunted, his voice low and rough. He pulled out almost all the way before slamming back into her, setting a relentless pace, the room, mingling with the woman’s moans and Zane’s heavy breathing. He leaned over her, his hands moving to her breasts, squeezing an
