AlexanderCharlotte stormed inside. Her gaze widened, trembling from the sight of blood gushing out of Alex. Charlotte quickly covered the wounds I inflicted as a severe punishment. I watched in silence. If she didn’t come, I’m sure my hands would be tainted with fresh blood again. Ending everything all at once was the most logical thing to do.I would never regret anything. That bastard deserved more than that.Charlotte shouted. She called Andrew as loud as she could, trembling from the sight of life fleeting away from his body. She lifted her head up as tears flowed relentlessly. Her eyes buried against my skin. Those teary eyes bore such loathe that my heart felt uneasy.Loud stomps also appeared from the hallway, as if it sounded like horses rushing to the scene. The door was left open. Liam and Zac appeared, catching their own breaths.Zac froze, staring at Alex’s weak body on the floor. “Brother, what have you done?”Liam’s eyes trembled before me, locking his gaze on my bloody

EmmaMy mind raced. How had he found me here? No, I had to stop thinking that way. He was the Lycan King. He had eyes everywhere. Of course he knew where I was.“What about?” I asked carefully, keeping my voice even.“About Alex,” Alexander said. His tone was low, steady, but there was weight in it I couldn’t ignore. Frustration, anger, something raw beneath the calm.I froze. I had hoped, maybe foolishly, that Andrew had changed. That he had really cared for Charlotte.Alexander explained everything he had uncovered. How Andrew was manipulating Charlotte. How he was playing a game she didn’t even know existed. I listened quietly. Every word sank into me, a mix of dread and resignation pressing against my chest.“I thought… maybe he had changed. Maybe he truly loved her,” I whispered. The words sounded weak even to my own ears.Alexander shook his head. “He’s after something else. I need your help. Can you dig into his past? Anything ugly that would open Charlotte’s eyes?”I blinked.

Andrew“Are you sure everything will work out, my love?” I asked Charlotte.“I told you right? I will stand by your side. No one can harm you again as long as I am here.” Charlotte held my hand. As we both enter the council room. The room was already filled with the Elders.“Greetings Princess Charlotte.” Everyone stood up from their seat.“No need to be formal. I’m just here to introduce my fiance to everybody. You may take your seats.”With a single word, everyone followed. I could barely hide my satisfaction. Desire filled my head. As long as I have Charlotte, I can have this place in a matter of time.“As everybody knows already, Andrew will be staying here as my fiance. And I demand the same respect I received from you towards my fiance. Is that clear?”The council agreed without an ounce of hesitation. No protest. No mockery. Charlotte held them on their throats.She made me give a short speech as an introduction. As I stood doing my best to my act, Charlotte stood beside me li

EmmaEarly in the morning. Same as the usual ones. I distracted myself with the pile of papers waiting to get done. MedCare Pharma doesn't sit around and relax on any day of the week. We always ensure quality work over comfort. However, today was unique. Ara’s smile plastered all over my face. It’s been a whole 10 minutes and she still hasn’t given up on sucking some details. I couldn’t run away from it.She leaned on the desk, tapping the wooden surface. “Hello?” “What?” I answered unenthusiastically. “So… how was the palace? You were gone for days, surrounded by royals. Don’t tell me nothing happened.”I sighed and kept my eyes on the documents. “Nothing worth talking about.” If I fuss, even the slightest, it would interest Ara more. So I continued to distract myself until Ara got tired. I read, signed, and pretended Ara didn’t exist. But she doesn’t know how to give up. She pulled the wheeled chair near my table. Smiled and whispered,“Nothing? Not even with the Lycan King? I

EmmaThe office buzzed with all kinds of noise. Printers scanning papers. Ringing phones from left to right. And voices talking in a slightly high tune. Everyone was absorbed in their own timeline. A usual day at the office.Strangely enough, I felt out of place. I was the one left behind. The usual noise I tackled every morning inside the office was out of rhythm with me. As if it was my first week working with the team, while the rest were in the same flow as everybody.I took a long breath, tapping the same page I was trying to dig upon. Words seemed jumbled in a way I couldn’t understand. My pen almost felt like a useless one without ink. I couldn’t write any.No matter how hard I tried to bury my face upon the layers of the papers, my thoughts were drifting somewhere else. I was only present physically, but the rest were flying around.I bit my lips, forcing every cell running in my head to focus on the paperwork today.“You’ve been staring at those numbers for an eternity. Don’t
