MARTAHow bad could a person's life get? How unlucky could one person be?Marta had these questions running through her mind as she ran out of her car. She had been driving at a crazy speed, she nearly ran into a truck. But she wouldn't have cared if she did. At the moment, she'd rather be dead than live this nightmare. Her parents, grandmother and Penelope were at the terrace when she arrived. They seemed to be having a conversation and stopped when they saw her. Marta wasn't the only one that looked worried. She'd never seen her grandmother more upset before. "How?" The word fell from her lips with pain. "I saw her yesterday," Penelope started with a sigh. "To my surprise, she'd been looking for me for five years. I couldn't recognize her because... she looked beautiful. Clearly, she found a way to get rid of the scar. She wanted to know where I buried the kids, but fortunately, I found a way to discard her. So, when I left her, I did my research and got to know she was

         MARTA She was losing her mind. She had spent a long time with her family trying to work up something against Lyric. They'd contemplated killing her but were skeptical as it was risky. If Lyric survived and it's somehow traced to them, they'd be doomed. If they had to kill her, it would need to be done smoothly. She returned home late and was furious when she checked on the kids and got to know from the nanny that they were at Lyric's. She'd lost all sense of reasoning. All she could think about was the fact that Lyric was trying to take her kids from her. It rang in her head that the twins were actually with their biological mother. If she hated Lyric before, she despised her now. If there was a word greater than loathe, she'd use it. She wanted her as far away from her kids as possible. And she was ready

        JARIS Something was wrong with me. I might need help for real this time. Because why the hell was I motivated by the face of just one person when I was up there? The task had been extremely difficult. It was enough to make even the strongest Alpha give up. Zarek was quite strong to have held on to the end, like me. People kept praising me for how effortless I made it seem. I didn't show any sign of weakness during my time there. But they didn't know what went on in my head. While I was pulling the heaviest weight I'd ever had to deal with in my life, I was tempted to give up. But a constant face kept playing in my mind. I kept picturing her large green eyes smiling at me, urging me to stay strong. When the weight seemed too much, I imagined how disappointed those very pretty eyes would be. 

      LYRIC  I woke up earlier than usual that morning, and the first thing I did was to go look for Jaris. But his office was locked and he wouldn't open the door to his room when I knocked. There was no way he'd gone out, right? This was the reason I woke up early so I'd catch him before he went anywhere. "He's still asleep, ma'am." Someone said behind me when I knocked on his door again. I turned to find one of the servants smiling at me. "Oh. How do you know that?" I pulled my robe tighter together. "I just finished working around here. He hasn't stepped out of his room yet." Damn it. I was tempted to wait around, but that would make me look ridiculous. So, I returned to my room, deciding to come check again in fifteen minutes. I fo

      LYRIC "Are you...okay?" The woman asked, bringing me back to reality. I swallowed painfully and looked around. Were there more of her? "I'm—I'm fine." "Okay. You haven't answered my question. Do you know who she is?" My eyes darted back to the paper. Then, I shrugged. "Not at all. Sorry I can't help." Her cold gaze lingered on me. But I didn't waste any more time. I hurried back to Maddy and told her we needed to leave. ..... As soon as I was home and alone, I put a call through to Jace, my hands shaking as I narrated everything to him. "They've come for me. What am I supposed to do? Who knows when they'll run into someone that knows me? Jace, I'm so scared!" I blurted so many words in seconds. "Lyric, calm down. We don't even kn
