Chapter 11One Condition.Elara Winterfell“You look familiar.” His voice was deep as he looked at me from across the table, squinting his eyes as if trying to remember where he could have seen me.I pressed my lips together into a thin line while putting the document on the table. “Um. I have a very common face, that's all.”He smiled a little and shook his head. “No. Your face is not a common one.”I just smiled in response and got straight to the point. “Here is a redo of the proposal, Mr. Daniel. I understand that our stance wasn't made clear in the last proposal that you went through.”We sat in the VIP section of a high-end restaurant that Rowan had booked for us. I evaluated Daniel Russo's features, and I was impressed. He had dark and wavy hair which fell to the left side of his forehead, his eyes were a kind of blurred hazel brown, and his face was finely carved to highlight his chiseled jaw and sensual lips. All in all, Daniel Russo was very attractive, but not close to Rowa

Chapter 13The Two Truths.Rowan Nightshade.The office was quiet like every other day, until Catherine stepped in with a stack of folders in her hands.“Hello, sir" She said professionally as she walked into the office. “Here are the files that I have worked on. It has been completed, and all that is needed is your approval before I send it to the required departments of all the companies we own.”I nodded to her and pointed to the corner of my table. She understood the sign and dropped the documents there. I didn't need to speak much, in fact, I barely ever spoke.“Sir…" She drew my attention again, and I nodded for her to continue. “Your friends just arrived. Should I let them in?”“Who and who?”“Daniel Russo and Dean Salvatore.” She said.I tried to hold down the growing irritation in me as their names were mentioned.“Let them in.” I said calmly, even when I knew I was going to regret this.“Whoooooo!” Daniel's voice was the first irritating voice to reach my ears. “Hey, man!”I

Chapter 15A Wedding.Rowan Nightshade.“Is that all there is to this?” Daniel leaned against one of the bookshelves that lined against the wall, one leg crossing over the other.“What do you mean?” I asked, my eyes slightly drooping from the exhaustion that threatened to eat me up.“I mean this Elara woman!” He said with a little annoyance.I knew what he was talking about, but I just felt like he was reading too much into things.“What about her?” I asked again, and I could see his knuckles turn white in anger at my frustrating response.“Look…" He pushed himself away from the wall and took cautious steps towards the sofa I was sitting on, “If Connor finds out…"“If Connor finds out what?” My eyes darkened immediately and my jaw tightened in anger. “What does it matter to him?”“He is your best friend, Rowan…"“I don't remember having a best friend!” I replied coldly, glaring at him.Daniel smirked, his eyes lighting in a cunning way. “That hurts me to hear, Ro. What are we, then? W

Chapter 17 Hospital Sabotage.Elara Winterfell.*Six Months Later*I felt something slippery pool down my legs as I stood behind the counter of the bakery, about to hand over some croissants to the customer who was in front of me.My eyes flew wide in surprise as I looked down. Had my water broken? And, as if to answer my question, a sharp and intense pressure washed over my lower abdomen and I could feel my eyesight getting blurry. The pain was so immense that it radiated to my back and thighs. The packaged croissant slipped from my hand on to the counter as I rushed to hold it for support.“Are you okay, ma'am? You don't look too good.” The customer, a nice old lady that was a regular, asked calmly.My head was spinning, and the room suddenly became very hot. The doctor had told me that I wouldn't be giving birth this early. I still had two more weeks to go. My body was covered with sweat as I struggled to breathe through the pain.“Oh my God!” Tanya almost screamed as she rushed

Chapter 19Another Issue.Rowan Nightshade.I pinched the space between my eyebrows, my hands shaking in anger.“What do you mean by she disappeared last night? As a ghost?” It felt like my brain was about to explode at the incompetent staff I had employed.“We've been reviewing the footage, sir.” His voice was shaky. “It shows her leaving the room last night, but the children were not with her.”“What? What do you mean?”The air conditioning in my office seemed to get even colder as my knuckles turned white.“We think the friend who visited her last night took the children, while…"I banged my fist against the table before cutting him off. “I don't want to hear it! Find her and bring her to my house in the next one hour!”“Your…" His voice trailed off. “Your house?” The voice was laced with shock. “Sir… We can arrange a hotel or something…"“Did I stutter?”I could hear a loud gulp from the other end of the call. “No sir. You made yourself absolutely clear!”“Good!” And with that, I
