They went past the town square, towards the marketplace.Throughout the journey, Rey kept bringing up random topics, and Alicia didn’t quite understand why.For instance; things like her dreams, and her thoughts on certain guys in their class.The breaking point came when Rey asked about her thoughts on Billy. Alicia couldn’t shake the feeling that Rey might be someone else, perhaps Justin in disguise.But on their way out of the Royal Estate, they saw Justin hanging out with his friends.It couldn’t have been him.Yet, doubts lingered in her mind; was this truly Rey?To exercise caution, she asked him questions that only Rey would know—questions regarding things they discussed in the Library or his room.“How many cats do I have in my grandparents’ house again?” And every time… EVERY SINGLE TIME… “Over thirty-seven, right?” … Rey knew the answers to her questions.It had to be him!Yet, despite Rey’s correct answers, Alicia couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off.‘So wh

“So… I was thinking…” Rey began, surrounded by Monkey Monsters. Despite the creatures around him, he spoke as if pitching an idea to fellow humans.The excuse he gave himself was that he was simply doing this out of boredom, but Rey failed to consider the possibility that maybe… just maybe he was going insane.“… Instead of picking up your Cores after killing you, couldn’t I just bring a few Hobgoblins with me to do the job?”“GRRRRRRRRRR!!!”In response to their loud growls, Rey raised his hands, as if trying to pacify them and further argue his point.“Now hold on… hear me out! They’ll just be a few. Maybe even just one who’s very intelligent and quick on their feet.”The rationale behind this was simple.While Rey was busy exterminating these creatures, the Hobgoblin would be harvesting the Cores.A win-win!… Well, except for the Monsters being slain.“ROOOOAAAARRRRR!!!”The group of Monkey Monsters—about five of them—leaped from their respective positions at the same time, all of

Dorian's POVThe email from Anna hit my inbox just as I was about to leave the office. The subject line alone made me pause as it sounded ominous—“Final Warning”. My jaws tightened as I read the message and I stared at the screen for a long moment while my pulse was hammering. The first person my mind went to was Daniel. He had definitely crossed a line there. My cousin had been meddling ever since I took over as CEO, subtly undermining my decisions and spreading dissent. I’d overlooked it for too long, chalking it up to jealousy or bruised pride. But this? Harassing Anna? Threatening her safety? That was unforgivable.I stormed out of my office and headed straight out of the building. I resolved that I was going to take the matter up with him.I entered my car and drove quickly to his office. I furiously slammed the door of the car as I reached his place. In a way, I was surprised that I hadn't been stopped by the cops due to how fast I was driving.“Hello sir, you aren't allowed

“Sir Seller… are you sure this is the Item you desire? We have better items available, and I’m not sure this suits your… style.”As Aldred said this, Rey inspected the item once more, cradling it in his palm.The enchanted item in question was a ring. It had a pure white surface, with an amber crystal affixed at the top.The amber crystal reminded him of Alicia, leading him to recall a big blunder he had made.‘I completely forgot about her!’They had both exchanged glances and smiles numerous times that morning, so perhaps she had expected them to hang out.‘My mind was so swamped that I didn’t even remember her!’ Rey thought, panicking already.That was when he made a choice that, though illogical, felt deeply fulfilling emotionally."It’s not... for me," Rey replied to Aldred with a dismissive tone.He could already see Noah smirking beneath his hooded disguise, and he felt like punching his teeth out.‘So what if I got it for Alicia? It’s normal for friends to get each other gifts

Beth's POVThrough tear-stained eyes, I looked up in surprise and confusion the moment the guns turned on Dante. I was unsure if this was a lifeline or the end of the line for me and I tried to piece together what was happening.I glanced at Nico beside me and saw that he was just as surprised as I was. Antonio chuckled as he saw our faces and helped Nico to his feet all the while staring intently at me.Nico had said that the Consigliere was my father and as much as I wanted to deny it, I couldn't do so as genetics and my eyes confirmed it. He was an older replica of Henry, my brother. The resemblance was too striking the more I looked on.“You sly fox. You were always one for theatrics. I almost fell for it all and thought you were on his side,” Nico said, embracing him with a thump on his shoulder.“I must admit, I put up quite the show. Watching you two clash heads was as satisfying as I had imagined though I had to step in before it got too late,” He said, with a faint British ac
