No Way

“I asked about Nightroe. Why did you bring me to a place like this instead?”Svanna was so confused that she didn’t even know why she was still following Orlando as he walked past several graves. It was strange that he’d brought her to a cemetery without even trying to say anything after she’d asked her question.Perhaps there was something important Orlando wanted to convey specifically in a place like this. Svanna blinked and shrugged. There was worry within her, but she tried to stay calm; trying not to think too much about how awful it was to be here. She didn’t know—it was some kind of unexpected feeling; a feeling she could barely control, forming a cluster of dark clouds.Orlando stopped right there; as he also quickly closed the remaining distance between them.However, the most shocking part was when... pure instinct demanded that she glance toward the headstone.That name.That date of death.Everything....It brought Svanna back to the day

The Whole Truth

The sound of hurried footsteps was the first thing Orlando heard after waiting quite a while. Svanna had fainted, and he had no choice but to take his sister-in-law to the hospital.Lightroe had already been notified. That was where the man was now; he had just arrived and suddenly grabbed the collar of his shirt. Orlando understood if there was anger that needed to be vented excessively, but he knew better that—whatever Lightroe was trying to do... it wasn’t appropriate.After all, the truth had come to light; Svanna had the right to know where Nightroe’s grave was, if that was indeed what had triggered Lightroe’s baseless rage.Besides, he was being pressed. Where was that man when Svanna tried to ask directly about the things their family had been hiding?“You shouldn’t have taken her there!”Orlando gave a faint smirk. “Why? I wouldn’t have taken my sister-in-law there if you hadn’t gone off to avoid the matters you needed to resolve,” he said, indirectly mak

Always Like This

After waking up and finding herself in the hospital, the only thing Svanna could do was stay calm, occasionally mourning her husband’s passing. It would take her a long time to come to terms with reality, even though she had almost no clue where to even begin.Perhaps when she set foot in the house again. When she saw her children’s faces. That would make things a little better. Ironically, for now, Svanna wasn’t ready to go home because, after all, there were so many memories in that house. They’d started everything from scratch there. It would be excruciatingly painful if she had to pretend she didn’t remember anything.Blinking, Svanna took a deep breath and exhaled roughly. She tried hard to hold herself back so she wouldn’t cry anymore. Enough was enough. Her eyes stung. She didn’t want to add to the burden or let anyone notice even the slightest oddity about her.Staying like this will never bring Nightroe back, will it?No, that will never happen.For now,

Happy Family

It felt like something new to return to this luxurious mansion with her husband. They had finished getting ready in the bathroom, and now it was time to see the children.Svanna didn’t know what made Nightroe freeze the moment they opened the door to the children’s room. Perhaps it was because the quadruplets turned their heads quickly when they heard the sound.Their faces were absolutely adorable.“What’s wrong with you, Nightroe?” Svanna asked after feeling that Nightroe had been silent for too long.There was no answer. Instead, the man looked at her skeptically.“Nightroe?” Svanna called out slowly. She had intended to wave her hand in front of Nightroe, but the man suddenly hugged her tightly.Well, this was strange. She hadn’t realized that meeting the children would bring out a different side of Nightroe.“What’s wrong with you?” she asked again. This time, she felt the moment when Nightroe leaned in to rest his face in the crook of her neck.

Not That Fast

“Are you sure Nightroe won’t get mad that you left without his permission?” Cochette kept asking the same thing over and over. Sometimes it made Svanna feel uneasy having to think about Nightroe’s reaction, but on the other hand, she was also pretty sure he wouldn’t overreact. They were only going out for a short while; to do some shopping; then they’d come home. “You don’t need to worry. Nightroe isn’t home. He’s already back to being busy with his activities outside.” Truth be told, Svanna wanted Nightroe to rest until he was fully recovered, but what could she say? He was too stubborn and always insisted that everything would be fine, so she gave in. At least Nightroe had promised it wouldn’t be long. Likewise, Svanna would be home before he returned. So everything would be fine. She immediately gave Cochette instructions so they could refocus on their original goal. Everything they needed was right here: ingredients and kitchen equipment. Coch

Hard Choice

“Your husband agreed to come here right away. He must really love you, doesn’t he?”Svanna unconsciously closed her eyes after hearing the man’s words. She and Cochette were tied to wooden chairs. They were in an old warehouse. It all seemed to be happening so fast.Nightroe....Truly, Svanna didn’t want that man to come alone and put his own life in danger. For God’s sake; Nightroe had just woken up from a coma, but now he had to face a huge problem.This man—Hendri... from what she’d gathered from overheard conversations here, he was clearly targeting Nightroe in any way possible. Svanna didn’t know what the main motivation was that ultimately led Hendri to orchestrate a kidnapping like this, but truly; she still hoped Nightroe wouldn’t be reckless enough to come alone.Indeed, there weren’t as many of them as she’d imagined. Still, they were armed, and the threat felt all the more real.The mere thought of gunfire made every nerve in Svanna’s body suddenly

Not a Chance

It felt like something was different. Svanna was still staring at Nightroe, while the man looked down as if trying to hide his guilt at having to make such a sudden decision here.“Looks like you’re out of luck, Sweetheart. Your husband chose his sister-in-law,” Hendri’s voice echoed as his men untied the ropes binding Cochette—who immediately ran toward Nightroe.Her husband had given her a signal, and it seemed Cochette understood she had to leave this old warehouse immediately.It was just the some of them now. Svanna felt a wave of fear wash over her as the gun remained pointed right at her.“Where’s my money?”Hendri began demanding payment. Svanna had no idea what kind of game Nightroe was playing. Coincidentally, the man glanced at one of the men behind him, then said, “I need my phone to transfer the money.”Perhaps he needed Hendri’s permission, and when the mastermind behind this kidnapping gave his consent, the phone was immediately handed back to

Finally

“Are you sure you want to come?”Svanna didn’t know why Nightroe had to ask the same thing over and over. Perhaps the man was unsure of how he would handle his feelings once Hendri’s punishment began.She wouldn’t miss this opportunity. At least for Svanna, it was important. She wanted to know what kind of punishment Hendri deserved after the crimes he’d committed in secret.“I’m absolutely sure,” she added, smiling at Nightroe. Hoping he wouldn’t keep her at home.However, for a moment, those sapphire eyes stared as if weighing something.Svanna didn’t want to hear it if Nightroe suddenly objected, so she immediately clung tightly to her husband’s arm. They were about to embark on a journey to where Hendri was currently being held.Thankfully, Nightroe didn’t say a word. Just as they happened to arrive at the front yard of the house, the man opened the car door. There were still many things they needed to discuss together, and Svanna was truly waiting for Ni

The End

The entire Sullivan family had gathered at the same event. However, there was one person who caught Svanna’s attention the most. Nightroe had seemed restless ever since they arrived, as if he were mulling over something but also waiting for the perfect moment to address it.“What’s wrong with you?” she finally asked.Nightroe glanced at her briefly. He made no attempt to say anything. Only a faint smile. Svanna looked at the man seriously, though she couldn’t deny that the children’s well-being was the most important thing she had to keep in mind.When she spoke with Nightroe that day—indeed—she hadn’t planned on bringing the quadruplets just to make Lightroe feel more desperate. However, something inside her truly objected to leaving the children for too long.After all, Svanna already had a hunch there would be a long series of activities, considering how much Russol Sullivan valued tradition.“Finally, someone’s here.”Nightroe’s deep voice filled the sudd
