I was left dumbfounded. Party? What was Reign thinking? Why would I go with him to a party?    I just recovered from my wounds, but this is the first thing he’d want me to do. I don’t know what Reign’s mind is thinking. Party? God! What am I going to do there? Become a proxy? Pretend to be her lady?   I gently touch my chest when someone suddenly grabbed my shoulder. I almost fell with a panic of being greeted by the face full of paint; I mean, makeup.    I was surprised when I found out that he was already standing next to the bed. I’m still leaning on the headboard. When Reign asked me to stand up earlier, I didn’t.   “Oh, such a lovely face,” he said and suddenly flashed a smile on his face, “I’m Crie, Jaccobich’s personal designer,” his introduction of himself.   I just stared at Crie; his smiles were scary because of the thick makeup on his face. Oh, he’s a designe

I was stiffened. My legs are shaking. What is going on? Why are there gunshots? I thought we were going to the party Reign talks about in this middle of the ocean, but why there’s firing going on? My soul was about to be taken away when someone was banging the door and was forcedly opened. I looked at the person who had caused the door to be smashed. It was Reign, and he’s holding a gun in his right hand. I was surprised while looking at him. When he saw me, Reign walked quickly to me. I just stayed in my position. I was very shocked because it was the first time I had heard a loud gunshot.  “Are you okay?” Reign asked worriedly. I wanted to open my mouth to answer him, but I couldn’t, so I just shook my head to let him know that I wasn’t okay.  Who would be okay if you suddenly heard a loud bang? I just want to take a nap! That’s all! 

“Get another lifeboat ready,” Reign said as he cocked his handgun then looked at me. He took me by the right arm and gently guide me to stand because I was still sitting, “and we will hold the enemy here to protect my woman,” the words he added made me blush, but I was confused.   Why does he keep insisting to become his woman and saying those words? Is this the sole reason why he brought me to the auction?    “Yes, boss,” I turned my gaze on Reign’s back. One of his men was already preparing another lifeboat. Reign was truly authoritative in all his subjects. Everything that comes out of his lips is immediately followed by them.    “Look at me,” said Reign. I was surprised as he gently touched both my cheeks and turned my face to him, “Do you know how to paddle?” he asked while his blue eyes were staring at me intensely. I left no choice but to nod.    Actually, I do not know-how. If

Reign got off first when the speedboat reached the shore. He still holds the gun as he reaches out his hand to help me down as well. When I got down, he suddenly placed his right hand on the side of my waist and gently pulled me closer to him.  I was shocked at what Reign did. Even though he was hit by a bullet in the left arm, and I knew he was exasperated, his body didn’t seem to be running out of energy. Is he really a robot? I just ignored him. I wanted to struggle, but I couldn’t because I was also losing physical strength. I just turned my gaze to the front.  “What happened to you, Sir Reign?” One of the female islanders suddenly asked while anxiously looking at Reign. When I looked at the faces of them all, I don’t know there was a trace of concern as they looked at Reign’s arm with a bullet wound. Reign gently released my waist, but he kept me sta

WARNING: There's an inappropriate scene for youngsters! But you can read anyway, I'm just giving a heads-up. Enjoy! <3   —   “You look stunning,” Reign greeted me as I stepped on the last step of the stairs. He was wearing a mint green t-shirt and faded jeans while his hair was a little wet. He had just finished taking a bath.   I don’t know if I will answer him. His deep, blue eyes stared at me. Suddenly my chest throbbed as my gaze landed on his kissable lips. Wait, did I say kissable? My God, Ruchee!    I just shifted my gaze to his eyes because when I glanced at his lips, I remembered what happened when we kissed under the sea. My body heats up. Did we really do that? I can’t believe it happened!   He immediately reached out his right hand. I stared at it and directly looked back into his eyes, “Take my hand,” said Reign. His baritone voice filled my
