I woke up to the sound of knocking in my room.

“Who is it?” I asked in a raised, sleepy voice, but there was no reply.

I dragged my feet to the side and headed for the door. I looked for someone’s face in front of me, only to find them below.

“Tobias?”

The boy stared at me as if regretting that he had even knocked. It seemed that he had been there the whole time.

“Uhm… are you okay, darling?” I crouched and rubbed his head. “Do you need anything?”

“I…” he began, stuttering while trembling. “I just wanted to say… thank you.”

I checked the clock in my room and realized it was still four in the dawn. Did the thought of not thanking me weigh on his mind too much for him to approach him so early?

“I-I’m sorry I disturbed you… I’m gonna go—“

“Wait—“

But the boy had already run back to his room.

I felt a little warm that Tobias had thanked me. It made me feel like I was finally doing something right in gaining his trust.

Baby steps, they say.

The next morning, while me and Sebastian were

    “You have all the answers that you need, Kierra Evans.”Kaspian smirked at me. “Sebastian is one of the suspects before your father died.”A chill traced down my spine, sharp and sudden.It can’t be…The air felt heavier, like the world had just tilted off its axis.“You… you can’t be serious, right?” I whispered, my voice strangled with disbelief. “There’s no way Sebastian would betray me like this.”“I’ve heard you ran back to that scoundrel,” Kaspian chuckled lowly. “What are you going to do now?”I took a slow, trembling step back. My world—already broken and stitched with string—cracked again beneath my feet.“What… what should I do?”I wasn’t asking him anymore. I was asking myself.“Always trusting the wrong people, aren’t you, Kierra? You’re a trouble magnet.”“Don’t have to tell me twice,” I muttered bitterly, crossing my arms.I was already spiraling, but now… now there was a seed of doubt in my chest that bloomed like poison ivy. I needed to know what was behind that pictur

    “Kierra, you’ve been the silent the whole time. Is there something that’s bothering you?”I didn’t have the stomach to finish all the food that Sebastian had brought into the apartment. What I found out the other day was chilling. I have so many questions I wanted to ask, but how? I didn’t want to start losing my trust after i had just made up with him. I cannot be too rash anymore.I gave him a pretend smile, “I’ll be meeting with Alessio and Alex today. You really should leave before they pick me up.”Sebastian sighed and crossed his arms, disappointed. I knew he didn’t want to leave. But the apartment was way too small for two people. “You don’t want to tell them that we’re back together?”I rolled my eyes and pushed him out of the door, “Trust me when I tell you that they already know.”Sebastian turned around and smirked, before planting a kiss on my hair. “Well, is there anything else I can help with you with?”I thought of it well, “No… not at the moment. I’ll contact you if

    As the boardroom meeting continued with icy pleasantries and false smiles, I quietly excused myself, murmuring something about needing air. No one questioned me—not after the bomb Sebastian just dropped. He had them all trembling in their tailored suits. But I had my own move to make.This was it. My moment. No more delays. No more fear.I kept my strides quick and silent, heels muffled against the thick Eboncorp carpet. My father’s office—once the heart of this empire—sat just down the corridor, usurped and bastardized by the man who stole it from me.Damian.My chest tightened. Just thinking of him behind my father’s desk, sitting in the chair of a man he never deserved to breathe near—let alone replace—made bile rise in my throat.I was just steps away when—“Excuse me, miss.”A clipped voice halted me. One of Damian’s secretaries rounded the corner, eyes narrowing with suspicion.Shit.I wasn’t supposed to be seen near this floor, especially not unaccompanied. My mind raced for a

  • The Mafia Devil's Princess   Comeback

    Damian Hail and the others in the board meeting stared at the only empty seat left in the room. His knuckles tapped against the mahogany table, a shallow rhythm that betrayed his building anxiety. The board was restless. Their eyes flicked between their phones, the entrance, and each other.“Who’s this late investor again?” one of the board members whispered to another.“No idea. Not on the registry. Just… a name. No face.”The murmurs grew. So did the dread.Damian gritted his teeth. Whatever name he scribbled on the guest list to pacify the committee wasn’t adding up anymore. The identity of the new stakeholder had been deliberately kept vague—and now that the time had come, no one knew who was about to walk through the door.Then chaos rippled up from the lower floors.Security radios buzzed erratically. People were rising from their desks, craning their necks to catch a glimpse of the storm rolling in. Screams, flashing lights, and the unmistakable chaos that followed power.And t

  • The Mafia Devil's Princess   A Semblance of Peaceful Life

    I woke up with my body all sore. The rays of sunlight burned my eyes as I opened them. Struggling to get up, I search my eyes on the apartment only to see Sebastian in the kitchen, his back to me.He turned around with a smile on his face. “Up already?”I looked around the bedroom. I expected it to be thrashed, clothes all over the floor. But to my surprise, it wasn’t. Our clothes were folded neatly on the side of the bed. He had cleaned my room and prepared breakfast for both of us.“I had to use what was left in your fridge,” he told me while serving his plate on a small bedside table, which he carried onto my lap. “Is this all you eat every day?”I pursed my lips and looked away. How do I tell him that I was struggling?“I’ll have my assistant bring over some clothes for you.” I stared at him. He was still undressed and only with pants on. I looked at my own self. I had nothing on but a blanket. I could feel the blush escaping my cheeks as I realized the events that transpired th

  • The Mafia Devil's Princess   Confession

    “Sebastian. You need to go home.”I had to push him out of my apartment because he didn’t want to leave. He thinks that if I left him for a night, he wouldn’t be able to see me again in the morning, and I find that completely ridiculous.“I don’t want to…”“Come on! I have work tomorrow!” I sighed at him. “And I can’t possibly let you stay in here either. The bed’s too small.”“Still, that didn’t stop us from sleeping together before—“I palmed my face.Ugh, why is he being so hard-headed?“If you won’t leave, then I will.” I crossed my arms across my chest.He rolled his eyes and pouted, “Fine. I’ll pick you up tomorrow.”“Tomorrow?” I raised an eyebrow. “I… have a day off tomorrow.”He pinched my nose, and I glared at him. “Do you want to infiltrate Eboncorp or not?”My eyes widened, surprised. “W-Wait… you have a plan already?”“I’m a shareholder,” he tells me, which even surprised me more. “YOU’RE A WHAT—““Since you asked for help from me a long time ago, I bought stocks in the
