Third POV

Enzo opened the lid of the energy drink Cassiel had passed to him, gulping down the content in a go.

“I want to hear everything, leave no details out.” Enzo said as he faced Cassiel, his eyes on his every movement.

“Is that meant to be a command?” Cassiel asked as he closed his computer.

“I wouldn't dare boss” Enzo said, correcting his tone and posture as he sat diligently to listen.

“The system beeped that an intruder had entered Julian's room with something deadly, I opened the camera but it was blurred, I couldnt see anything and that was why I put a call across to you.” Cassiel explained.

“But I received a signal from you and it was from where I was at the moment that your call came through,” Enzo said, trying to decipher the meaning of the situation.

“That might be a system error.” Cassiel suggested saying he never sent a signal to Enzo.

“So did you drive recklessly down to the hospital and that led to the accident or am I being too forward?” Enzo asked calmly.

    Third POV“I’m sure,” Iris replied, glancing at the door to make sure no one was listening. “I overheard Cassiel. They’re launching a surprise attack on the council. Everyone will be focused on that.”Renata’s laughter was low and satisfied. “Perfect. You just keep doing what you’re doing. Make sure no one else decides to stick around. We can’t have any unexpected heroes getting in the way.”“I’ll handle it,” Iris promised. “But are you sure about this? If it goes wrong…”“It won’t,” Renata cut in sharply. “Cassiel will be too occupied, and by the time he realizes what’s happened, it’ll be too late. Stick to the plan, Iris. You’ve done well so far. Don’t lose your nerve now.”“Yes, Renata,” Iris whispered, trying to push down the knot of anxiety in her stomach.The call ended, and Iris took a moment to steady her breathing. She couldn’t afford to let her fear show. After all, she’d worked too hard to secure her position within Cassiel’s mansion. This was her

    Third POVCassiel stood by his massive desk, the sharp lines of his jaw tightening as his eyes locked onto Iris. His gaze was cold, cutting through the dim light of the study like a blade. He didn’t move, but the sheer force of his presence filled the room with a suffocating intensity. Iris shifted uneasily, her fingers twitching at her sides, as if caught in a silent battle with her own nerves.“What were you doing in Julian’s bed?” Cassiel’s voice broke the silence—calm, but edged with menace.Iris swallowed hard, lowering her eyes for a moment before lifting them again to meet his. “Boss, I… I was only trying to pick up a blanket. Julian was asleep, and the blanket was half off him. I wanted to cover him.”Cassiel didn’t blink. “A blanket,” he repeated slowly, voice cold. “And yet you were under the sheets, with Julian’s phone in your hand.”Iris’s face flushed, a flicker of panic crossing her features. “His phone? I didn’t mean to take it. I think it fell out

    Third POVCassiel’s mansion was unusually quiet that afternoon. The soft rustle of leaves from the open window mixed with the faint ticking of the wall clock. Julian stretched on the couch, one hand resting over his eyes, trying to fight off the lingering sleepiness.A gentle knock at the door made him sit up. Before he could respond, the door creaked open, and a young maid with striking white hair stepped inside, carefully balancing a silver tray with a teapot and a plate of cookies. She moved with practiced grace, her steps almost soundless as she approached the small table in the corner.Julian watched her curiously, a faint smile pulling at his lips as he noticed her glancing at him every few seconds. She placed the tray down, her hands trembling slightly, and he couldn’t help but chuckle softly.“You know,” Julian started, his tone playful, “if you keep checking me out like that, I might think you’re in love with me.”Her face flushed a deep red, and she imm

    Third POVRenata pulled her sleek black car to a stop in front of a modest-looking beauty salon. The neon sign flickered weakly, half the letters burnt out. She smirked, tapping her long, polished nails on the steering wheel before stepping out. Her heels clicked against the cracked pavement as she approached the entrance.The salon’s glass door was smeared with fingerprints, and a faded “Closed” sign hung crookedly on the window. Renata raised an eyebrow and tried the handle. Locked.Just as she was about to knock, a young attendant appeared from behind the counter, her face a mixture of annoyance and caution. She cracked the door open just enough to peek through.“We’re closed,” the attendant stated, her tone flat and dismissive.Renata didn’t budge. “Tell Iris the black rose is in bloom.”The attendant’s expression immediately changed. Her eyes widened, and she looked nervously over Renata’s shoulder, checking the quiet street. Satisfied no one was watchin

    Third POVRenata sat in the dimly lit underground bar, smoke curling from her lips as she took a long drag from her cigarette. The air was thick with the scent of alcohol and sweat, the kind of place where secrets and sins coexisted. She leaned back against the worn leather couch, legs crossed, eyes half-lidded as she watched the room through the haze.A slow, sultry jazz tune played from the dusty speakers, vibrating through the floor. Renata’s eyes were glazed, a smirk playing on her lips as she exhaled, letting the smoke swirl around her like a dark halo. Her thoughts were a jumbled mess, but that was the point—she didn’t want to think tonight.A shadow fell over her, and she glanced up, eyes narrowing. A woman stood before her, barely clothed, with a wicked smile and eyes that promised distraction. Renata didn’t bother hiding her once-over, gaze trailing from the woman’s messy blonde hair to her fishnet-clad legs.“You look lonely,” the woman purred, sliding onto

    Third POVEdgar leaned back, drumming his fingers against the polished wooden armrest, his expression contemplative. George was muttering under his breath about “kids running things,” while Samuel remained silent, eyes narrowing thoughtfully at the recent news.Suddenly, the door to the chamber burst open, slamming against the wall with a loud thud. A guard stumbled in, breathless and disheveled, almost tripping over his own feet. He straightened quickly, his chest heaving as he tried to catch his breath.“What the hell do you think you’re doing?” George barked, his face twisting with fury.Samuel shot the guard a glare. “Do you have a death wish, barging in here without permission?”The guard swallowed hard, his face paling. “S-Sir, I apologize. It’s urgent—”Edgar raised a hand, silencing both his companions. His cold gaze fixed on the guard. “This better be worth your life. Speak.”The guard’s voice was shaky, his eyes darting between the three men as
