Author's point of view... The royal warriors advanced precision, overwhelming Rona’s men with sheer numbers and superior tactics. Rona never wanted a fight but he was forced to fight fiercely to get his way out, his blade clashing against the enemy's, but the odds were impossible. The royal warriors were all trained ones whereas Rona and his men were mere assassins. Despite Rona's immense strength, facing a hundred even stronger warriors was no easy feat. They were no match for the royal army. One by one, his men fell to the ground and some ran away. In no time, Rona was the only one left standing. With a final, defiant cry, Rona swung his sword, but it was knocked from his grasp, and he was forced to his knees, a sword at his throat. A tall figure stepped forward, removing his helmet. It was Kevin, his eyes cold and calculating while a smirk tugged on his lips. "Welcome, Mr. Wuji," Kevin said as one of his subordinates lifted Rona's head. Seeing him made Rona jolt. R

Author's point of view... Scarlett was bent down to her knees. Feeling helpless, she squeezed her eyes shut. Adrian knelt beside her and looked at her. His heart sank. This wasn't what he wanted.She wanted her to be his, only his but not like this. "I'm sorry, Scarlett," Adrian mumbled under his breath, his heart ached, "I know you hate me but at least you will be safe". The more she was in pain, the more he struggled internally. She had no idea what he was going through when he saw her like that. Scarlett hung her head and cried. Catherine was captured. Rona was beaten so harshly, even she was in his grip right now. Her life was shattered. Adrian sighed and knelt before her, his eyes earnest. He wanted to touch her but hesitated. "I never wanted it to come to this, Scarlett. But you left me no choice. We have to end this conflict..." Before he could say any further, she lifted her gaze and glared at him, her eyes filled with mere hatred and disgust. Those beautiful

Author's point of view... Once the maids were done with all the formalities, Scarlett stood before the mirror, smoothing the satin of her green dress and adjusting a stray curl. She was a vision of elegance, her beauty magnified by the soft candlelight that flickered around the room. She took a deep breath, steadying herself for the evening ahead. Tonight, she had a mission, one that required her to be every bit the alluring and devoted partner Adrian believed her to be. Soon the maid standing guard outside informed that Prince Adrian had arrived. Scarlett let out a sigh and looked in his direction. When Adrian entered the tent, he was taken aback. His heart racing with anticipation. The moment he saw Scarlett, his breath caught in his throat. She looked more stunning than ever as if an angel just descended to the earth. Scarlett clenched her fist on her dress and forced a smile. Though a hesitant one, her radiant smile made his pulse quicken. He had longed for this ni

Author's point of view... The divine stone began to dissolve the black smoke surrounding him and Xian's hazy image began to interpret. Even though, he had no intention of holding back from his vicious plans, even if he was going to disappear completely from this world. He desired to possess Scarlett and all her powers but if that proved impossible, he would prefer to destroy her. He let out a deep, painful sigh and stretched his smokey tendrils, determined to choke the hell out of her. Just as Xian's smoky tendrils reached out for Scarlett, a blinding white light struck him with the force of a thunderbolt, causing him to recoil with a furious howl of fury. Scarlett shielded her eyes from the intensity, her heart pounding in her chest. When she dared to look again, she saw Adrian stepping out of the darkness, his expression determined and fierce. "Adrian!" Scarlett exclaimed, relief washing over her. Adrian didn't waste a moment. He hurried to Scarlett's side, his hands m

Author's point of view... Deep in her dreams, she saw Adrian drenched in blood and backing far away from her. She screamed to call him but he didn't stop at all. Shivering, she opened her eyes and jolted into a seating position. "Adrian..." she shouted and looked around, only to find herself alone in the tent, lying on the bed. Where did he go? He was brutally injured...! Her breath was not at ease and so were her thoughts but a concerned voice from the door, snapped her back. "You woke up...! How are you feeling right now?" A familiar voice echoed through the tent and Scarlett snapped out of her thoughts, sprang from her bed and ran towards the direction of that voice. "You...how are you...Rona?" she asked in return, hugging him tightly, her eyes filled up as she gasped. Rona smiled. Scarlett stepped back, her eyes filled with tears of worry and regret. "Did they make things hard for you?" she asked scanning his body for any wounds. She recalled how he was covered
