The moment the plane landed in Moscow, I knew I didn’t belong here.

The sky was gray, the air sharp with cold, a stark contrast to the warmth of Italy. Even inside the private car that awaited us, I could feel the chill seep into my bones. I pulled my coat tighter around me, trying to suppress the shiver that ran through my body—not just from the cold, but from the dread tightening my chest.

I had never been to Russia before, and honestly, I had never wanted to. Yet, here I was, forced into an engagement I despised, traveling to a foreign place that felt nothing like home.

Damian sat beside me in the car, silent as ever, his posture rigid and unreadable. He hadn’t spoken a word to me since we left Italy, and I wasn’t exactly eager to start a conversation. The tension between us had only grown in the days leading up to this trip. I hated how unaffected he seemed by everything. As if our upcoming marriage was nothing more than a business deal—and to him, maybe it was.

  • The Devil's Vow #1: Crimson Promises   Crimson 92 [ Special Chapter 11 ]

    Five years had passed since that first time we’d visited the Carnaval. Time had flown by in a way that both amazed and overwhelmed me. Nathan was now a little boy, five years old and full of energy. His laughter was contagious, and every day with him felt like a new adventure. As a family, we had our ups and downs, but there was something about the way our little world had come together that made everything worth it. The idea of going to the Carnaval again was something Damian had suggested a few weeks ago. I had almost forgotten about the tradition we started with Nathan when he was a baby. Now, with him being five, I knew this would be a different experience. Nathan was old enough to appreciate the colors, the music, the rides, and, of course, the games. We were no longer a young couple trying to figure out parenthood. We were a family—stronger, closer, and so much more in tune with each other. I watched as Damian helped Nathan into his little outfit. It was cute and casual, perfe

  • The Devil's Vow #1: Crimson Promises   Crimson 91 [ Special Chapter 10 ]

    The day had finally arrived. Isabella had been feeling the first signs of labor for a few hours, and the excitement—and nerves—were palpable. She had been waiting for this moment, but now that it was here, she felt a whirlwind of emotions. Damian, however, was the one who seemed to be caught up in a storm of anxiety. His hands were shaking slightly as he paced the floor beside Isabella’s bed, watching her as she breathed through the contractions. Nadia, ever the supportive sister-in-law, stood nearby, doing her best to keep things calm. But even she couldn’t help but laugh a little at the sight of Damian, who looked as though he was about to faint. His face was pale, and he kept running his hands through his hair in frustration. "Damian, take a breath," Nadia said, trying to hold back a giggle. "You’re going to pass out if you keep pacing like that." Damian gave her a nervous glance. "I don’t know how you’re so calm. This is—" He stopped himself, realizing how ridiculous he sounded

  • The Devil's Vow #1: Crimson Promises   Crimson 90 [ Special Chapter 9 ]

    I’ve always heard about the strange cravings and unpredictable moods that come with pregnancy, but nothing really prepares you for experiencing it yourself. When I first found out I was pregnant, everything seemed so surreal—like it was happening to someone else. But then, as the days went on, the reality of it began to sink in, and with that came a whole new world of experiences. The first change I noticed was my cravings. And let me tell you, they were... unexpected, to say the least. At first, it was subtle. I’d crave a little extra chocolate here, a strange combination of pickles and ice cream there. But then, one evening, I found myself standing in front of the fridge, staring at a jar of mustard like it was the most precious thing in the world. I couldn’t explain it, but I had to have it. Damian was on the phone, talking business when I grabbed the jar, and when he saw me sitting on the kitchen counter, spooning mustard straight into my mouth, he nearly dropped his phone. “Isa

    As Damian and I continued to bask in the warmth of the moment, I noticed a soft sound coming from the door. My heart skipped a beat before I realized who it was. Nadia. She had probably been watching the whole thing through the hidden camera, waiting for the perfect moment to join us. Her timing was impeccable, as always. I barely had time to process her arrival before the door creaked open and she stepped inside, her eyes twinkling with mischief. “Well, well, well,” she said, leaning casually against the doorframe with a smirk on her face. “It seems someone’s getting a little too comfortable in their new role as ‘Daddy.’” Damian, still sitting on the edge of the bed, shot her a surprised look before a sheepish grin spread across his face. He looked between Nadia and me, clearly caught off guard. “Nadia, you were watching the whole thing?” Nadia raised an eyebrow and crossed her arms, her playful expression never faltering. “I may have had a front-row seat to the most beautiful mo

    It had been a week since Nadia, the maid, and I discovered the surprising news. A week since I saw the small, positive pregnancy test in my hand and realized that my life was about to change in ways I could never have anticipated. The excitement and fear still bubbled inside me every time I thought about it. But it wasn’t just me who was going to be affected by this news—it was Damian, too. And that’s why I wanted to do something special for him. Something that would surprise him, something that would be ours to share, even if it was just for a moment. I had an idea in my head ever since Nadia and I had looked at that little pink line. Damian had no idea yet, and I wanted to give him a surprise—an unforgettable moment when he would find out. Nadia, as usual, was all for it. She supported me in whatever I wanted to do. “This is for both of you,” she said when I told her my plan. “I’ll just set up a hidden camera in the bedroom, and then it’s all you. I think he’ll love it. You both w

  • The Devil's Vow #1: Crimson Promises   Crimson 87 [ Special Chapter 6 ]

    It had been four weeks since our honeymoon in the Maldives, and something felt different. At first, I dismissed the strange feeling, brushing it off as just the weight of all the changes in my life. But the dizziness that came and went, the lack of energy, and the growing sense of exhaustion couldn’t be ignored. There were days when I simply didn’t want to do anything—days when getting out of bed felt like an impossible task. I wasn’t sick, not really. But I felt off. At first, I thought it was just the stress from adjusting to this new life with Damian. There was still so much to figure out—our relationship, the balance between work and life, everything. But as the days went by, I began to notice something else: my appetite had changed. I was eating more than usual, craving things I wouldn’t normally want. I could feel my body demanding food at strange hours. It wasn’t like me, at all. Nadia, my ever-watchful sister-in-law, seemed to notice too. One afternoon, as we sat together in
