By any means

Nina drags herself home, her thoughts a swirl of worry and exhaustion. As she steps through the front door, the sound of muffled sobs fills the house, stopping her in her tracks."Nina! Save us!" Her stepmother, Doris Lauren, rushes toward her, desperation written all over her tear-streaked face. She clutches at Nina as if she's her last hope, her grip tight and trembling."Aunt Lauren, what happened? Why are you crying?" Nina asks, her voice laced with concern as she looks from Doris to her stepsister, Grace, who is sitting nearby with puffy, red eyes."The creditors... somehow they found us. They came here today, demanding payment by five o'clock this afternoon," Doris says, her voice cracking. "If we don't pay, they said they'll take your father to court... and sell you and Grace to a bar to work as whores!" Doris's voice rises hysterically as she pulls Grace closer, cradling her head.Grace sniffles and wipes her eyes, but Nina catches the glint of something cold and calculating b

Worthless

Troy Roger, who used to wait for her under the cherry tree in May, would stand there after school, his silhouette framed by the soft petals falling around him. His smile was always warmer than the spring breeze itself, a comforting presence in her world. She could still hear his voice, filled with a kind of tenderness that made her feel safe. "Nina, grow up faster," he'd say with a playful grin. "On your 18th birthday, I'll take you to the sea. Just you and me."Back then, those words felt like a promise, a beacon of hope she held onto as she navigated the trials of her young life. The sea. She had never seen it before, and the idea of it-vast and open, full of endless possibility-was something that kept her going. She wanted to grow up, just so she could stand beside him, looking out over the water.Troy Roger, who appeared out of nowhere like a god from heaven when those off-campus punks tried to corner her. She could still see the flash of his fierce determination when they made a

What did you say?

Nina's anger spikes. How dare he try to control me like this? Her eyes blaze with fury as she glares at him. "I'm not your prisoner," she spits, her voice icy. She slams the phone down onto the table with force, the sound echoing through the room. Her chest rises and falls rapidly as she fights to control her breathing. "I may have agreed to this, but I'm still my own person. You don't own me."Lucien's jaw tightens. Her defiance annoys him, but it also intrigues him. "So many women would kill for this attention, but you-" His voice hardens as his gaze locks on hers. "Why are you acting like this? You're too sentimental."Nina's face flushes with anger. She narrows her eyes at him, her lips curling into a sneer. "Why don't you try tying yourself to your bed and see how it feels? Then you'll know what it's like being treated like a possession!" Her voice rises with her frustration, her fists clenching at her sides.Lucien's eyebrows arch in surprise at her outburst, but before he can r

It's already taken

Nina Morrison slowly opens her tear-soaked eyes, her vision blurred by the flow of tears, and stares up at Lucien Gray. Her body feels heavy with resignation, yet a flicker of defiance still burns inside her.Lucien pauses as he catches the ineffable pain and pallor in her gaze, something cold and distant that sends a chill down his spine. In that moment, he knows-there's another man in her heart.A violent surge of anger courses through him, lighting his blood on fire. How dare she? His hands clench into fists by his side. His chest tightens, the raw fury pulsing within him like a heartbeat. Who is he? The thought of her thinking of anyone else is unbearable. Nina Morrison is my woman. I'll never allow her to belong to anyone else.Lucien's eyes blaze, his expression darkening with rage, his lips curling into a tight, furious line. Without another word, his mouth crashes down on hers, a fiery, angry kiss meant to claim her. His lips are rough, cold where hers are soft, demanding wher

What have you done to me

Late at night in the villa, the fine crystal chandelier casts a warm, luxurious glow throughout the room, illuminating every corner. Lucien Gray swirls a glass of deep red wine in his hand, his dark eyes glinting like a dangerous cheetah, filled with an intensity that could set the room ablaze. He has just emerged from a hot bath; droplets of water cling to his forehead and hair, glistening like tiny crystals. As they trickle down, they leave faint trails on the white fabric of his bathrobe, which hangs loosely around his broad shoulders, revealing a hint of his muscular chest. The front of the robe is half open, exuding a confident, almost arrogant allure.The bathroom door creaks open, breaking the silence.A seductive figure steps out, her skin dewy and radiant, with a faint blush painting her cheeks. She casts a sidelong glance at Lucien, her eyes filled with an almost worshipful admiration as she approaches him on the leather sofa. "Lucien, why are you drinking alone? Don't you

Unknown feelings

Lucien Gray tries to rid his mind of distracting thoughts, especially the image of the little woman haunting him. Right now, all he wants is to vent. Any woman should suffice-anyone who can clear the chaos in his mind.Lying idly on the sofa, he closes his deep-set eyes halfway. His strong arms encircle the woman's waist.But the moment he touches her, his body stiffens.Damn it! What is this feeling?"Get out!" Lucien Gray shoves the woman away, his dark eyes blazing with anger."Gray! Gray, you-" the woman stammers in shock.But Lucien's expression darkens further. There's nothing-no spark, no desire for the woman before him.Because the one he truly wants to hold, the one he craves to touch, is not her."Damn it! Get out of here!" he growls, roughly pushing her wriggling body aside. Rising abruptly, he strides toward the window, his posture tense, his face filled with frustration.Grabbing his phone, he activates the locator system on Nina Morrison's wristband.His brow furrows dee

Confession

She dared to hang up on him.His cold, dark eyes burn with fury, but there's no trace of sleep in them. He grabs his suit off the sofa, snatches his car keys, and storms out of the house.At the flower shop, Nina Morrison finishes wrapping the last bouquet, packs her things, and prepares to close up. Just as she turns to shut the door, she spots a tall figure approaching under the streetlights."Nina, are you off duty?" The man walking toward her is Marcus Bell, a classmate from school."Ah, Marcus, what are you doing here?" Nina rubs her temples, feeling a headache forming. She had just dealt with Lucien Gray, and now Marcus shows up.Marcus has always had a soft spot for her, though he's never directly said it. But Nina isn't oblivious-she just doesn't want to encourage him."Nina, you must be exhausted. I heard from Lily that you work here, so I thought I'd drop by to check on you," Marcus says with a smile."Oh, well, I'm used to it. I was just about to close up and head home. See

Nothing to Tell

Marcus, though tall and sturdy, is no match for Lucien's raw, dangerous aura. He hesitates, unsure of what to do.Lucien's thick eyebrows knit even tighter, his fists clenched so hard that his knuckles turn white. His anger is palpable. Nina Morrison, are you protecting your lover? The thought sends his fury skyrocketing.Marcus, still confused, barely has time to react before Lucien's fist slams into his face. The force of the punch sends him staggering backward."Lucien Gray! What are you doing? Are you insane?" Nina yells, stepping in front of Marcus. Her bright eyes glisten with unshed tears as she stares at Lucien, frustration and desperation etched on her face.Lucien's chest tightens painfully. Nina's blatant defense of Marcus only fuels his anger. His dark eyes narrow dangerously. "Nina Morrison, move out of the way before I hit you too!" he growls.Marcus, now furious after taking two punches without cause, clenches his fists and charges at Lucien.Lucien smirks coldly, deliv

Strangely calm

"It's none of my business?" Lucien's lips curl into a grim smile. "Don't forget-you're my mistress. A mistress follows the rules."Mistress.The word stabs at Nina's dignity, and the bitter reality of her situation crashes down on her. A mistress. That's all I am.Her lips pale as she bites down hard to steady herself. With a chill in her voice that feels like ice, she looks him in the eye. "Yes, I'm just a mistress. Someone without dignity, without freedom. I'm poor and pathetic, so I deserve to be at your beck and call, right? I deserve to be treated however you please. It's the honor of my life to be noticed by someone as powerful as President Gray. I should obey without question. If you tell me to go east, I must never think of going west. If you say it's sunny, I must never say it's raining. Isn't that what you want?"Her words hit Lucien like a whip.He stares at her, stunned by the fire in her tone and the cutting sarcasm in her words. No one-no one-had ever spoken to him like

Am I weaker than her?

The city looks particularly beautiful on summer nights. Row upon row of tall buildings lines the horizon, while the busy streets and vibrant lights, red, gold, and green create a lively yet serene atmosphere. The warm, humid evening breeze carries the faint scent of gardenias, drifting in through the car window.The sleek Lamborghini heads toward the shantytown where Nina Morrison lives."Nina Morrison, you have ten minutes to say goodbye to your stepmother and sister, then get out immediately," Lucien Gray orders, his tone sharp and unyielding."Ten minutes? I still need to pack my things," Nina protests, shooting him a displeased look. Her face is marked with bruises, her eyes tinged with blue and purple-her misery etched visibly.Lucien's gaze softens for a moment, but his voice remains cold and detached. "Fifteen minutes, then. But if you take any longer, I can't guarantee what will happen."Tyrant. Devil. Psycho. Megalomaniac! Nina curses him silently, rolling her eyes in exasper
