Tragic Love
When Alexander Smith stands in front of me and says he's going to marry someone else, that's when I realize he's been reborn too. I remember our 20 years of love in our past life. A plane crash. And then, rebirth. "This is to save Sophia," he says. "In our past life, she was sold to a Vostmark oligarch after her father's political scandal. Not long after, she took her own life due to abuse. I can't let that tragedy happen again, so I need to get engaged to her." As he speaks, he hands me an orange prescription bottle. "If you take this, you'll forget me for a little while. You won't feel the pain. It's just seven days. Once her father's scandal blows over, you'll stop the medication and your memory will return. Then I'll end the engagement and officially propose to you." I stare at the bottle, knowing it's a lie. Not the part about Sophia's suicide. The lie is about the drug. He thinks it only causes temporary memory loss. But I know better. The suppressant causes permanent damage to emotional memory. The seven-day countdown isn't the time it takes for my memories to return. It's the time it takes for my love for him to die.

Why Mourn What You Killed? Chapter 6
After the signing ceremony, Mikhail didn't immediately ask me to move into the Romanov estate. Instead, he arranged for a private villa along the Serova River."I know you'll need time to adjust," he said. "This place is only a ten-minute drive from the Romanov estate. If you need to be by yourself, stay here. But whenever you'd like company, I'll be close by."The villa was a remnant of the Vostmarkan Imperial Era, but the interior had been fully modernized. Every detail had been thoughtfully considered. He'd even replicated the essentials from my apartment in Veridon, down to the exact brand of coffee machine.He came by every evening after work, sometimes to walk with me through the snow, other times just to talk by the fire.When I mentioned missing Veridon's bagels, he flew in a baker from Belgrave. Even so, the water in Droskav was different. Despite using the same recipe, the taste never quite matched. Regardless, I was deeply touched by the gesture. He left on a three-day
Why Mourn What You Killed? Chapter 5
The wind at Dravensk Airport in Droskav, Vostmark, was razor-sharp, slicing straight through layers of clothing.As I stepped off the airstair, I spotted a tall figure waiting on the tarmac. It was Mikhail, and he was far more imposing in person than in his profile picture. His dark brown hair was slicked back with meticulous precision, and his gray-blue eyes were as cold and unreadable as a Nordveil ice lake.He approached with long, purposeful strides, his gaze intense and unreadable. "Emma," he greeted me in Velric, his Vostmarkan accent unmistakable. "Welcome to Vostmark."By standard business protocol, he should have addressed me as Ms. McKenzie. The use of my first name caught me slightly off guard.He must've noticed the flicker of surprise in my expression, because a faint, knowing smile curved the corner of his lips."Forgive me. I got ahead of myself. I've waited a long time for this day.""Do we know each other?"Mikhail didn't answer directly. Instead, he opened
Why Mourn What You Killed? Chapter 4
The champagne glass slipped from Alexander's hand, shattering on the floor and scattering crystal shards everywhere."What? She went to Vostmark? That's impossible! She's too proud! She would never agree to a political marriage. I'm going to the airport!"He turned to leave but was blocked in the doorway by Claire.She stood tall in a black suit, sharp and commanding, like a prosecutor about to deliver a closing argument. Her eyes were cold, blade-like."Proud?" Her voice cut through the room. "Alexander, what made you think she would wait around for you forever?"You really believed that that memory suppressant would only cause temporary amnesia? I just got my hands on an internal report from the Food and Drug Administration. That drug causes permanent damage to the brain's dopamine receptors. Congratulations. You've destroyed the very love you were trying to preserve."This entire week, she's been fully aware. She witnessed you purchasing a replica of her ring for Sophia, openl
