THIRTY ONE: JESSICA'S POV All heads whipped to the entrance of the door and in sync, gasps erupted from their throat. I gulped. At the door, stood Gray.... His eyes blazing with fury, face twisted in rage. “What the hell is going on here?!” He seethed, his voice bouncing off the walls of the entire room. The three girls stood straight, a fake smile appearing on their lips. “And what do you think it is? We were trying to welcome her.” The Eve of a girl said, and a shocked gasp filled my throat. There weren't only whores but also liars? “And you think I'm daft to buy that?” Gray questioned, cocking his head before walking into the room completely.“We....”“You were trying to welcome her?” They tried to speak, but he cut them off, his gaze sweeping over my face, then back to the girls. “Can you explain the split on her lips and how you both pounded on her? I'm not blind, Eve!!” He snapped further, his jaw clenched. None of them said anything; they only ro

THIRTY TWO: JESSICA'S POVI had no plans to pack anything. After all, the first day we were brought here, we came with nothing, just dragged in here like criminals. With a sharp exhale, I walked to the bedside, leaned in, and tapped Willow twice. She whimpered, then opened her eyes. If there was anything I was grateful for, it was the fact that Willow was a light sleeper. She turned to me, her brows slightly furrowed. “Get up Willow.” I mumbled, my gaze sweeping across the room. She groaned. “Why? I still want to sleep.” She muttered, and I sighed. “We have to get something outside....”“But what? Can't it wait till morning?” She quickly cut in, her eyes snapping closed again. I bit my tongue hard with an exhale. “Willow, just get up already! There is still time to go back to sleep. All we just have to do is go get the stuff real quick and then come back.” I mumbled once more, hoping Willow would buy the lie. Instead, she sat up on the bed, rubbed her eyes

Chapter 33

THIRTY THREE: LUCIAN'S POVThe room reeked of heavy stench of blood, the dim red light flickering on and off, a stick of cigar trapped between my lips as I took slow puffs, events of everything that happened echoing over and over again in my memory. Varran Leone. The thief. Ming Hao. Those three! Varran Leone thought he could be smart with me, he thought he'd continue hiding from me, but no, I was going to make him crawl out of his hiding. I was going to make him taste death, but it'll be far from taking his life. And for Ming Hao? I don't regret how I ended him. When I chose his hotel, it wasn't because there was no better hotel in Beijing. When I asked him to find that thief for me, it wasn't because I hadn't gotten all the facts I needed—that criminal was under the protection of Ming Hao. I had no plans to spend four days in Beijing, but he actually tried to act smart with me. Even when I gave him countless opportunities, provide the criminal for me

Chapter 34

THIRTY FOUR: JESSICA'S POVMy feet clicked against the floor, soft but trembling as I walked into the abandoned building, my heart was pounding in my chest. The heavy stench of blood which swirled in the air was heavy, but that didn't even bother me, that didn't even make my skin crawl, not when I didn't know why he called me, not when I had no idea why he wanted to see me. I rushed here the moment I confirmed Willow was okay. Not like there was something I could do if it was the opposite, but my skin had crawled in fear when I remembered his threat, so I rushed and first confirmed Willow was inside, but not sleeping. She was reading her novel once more. Before I left the room to this building. I had instructed her to lock the door and not to open it for someone else who wasn't me. I didn't know how that made me sound or look, but I was only trying to protect my sister. I'll have myself to blame if anything happened to her. With a sharp exhale, I proceeded

Chapter 35

THIRTY FIVE: JESSICA'S POVI opened my mouth to speak, but I couldn't even think of what to say. My heart thudded in my chest as I stared between Lucian then back at the girls whose tears were dripping torrentially, but they couldn't even say a word, they could only shake their head, hoping that a miracle would happen.I would have been the most excited if these girls ceased to disturb Willow and I, but what I didn't want was their deaths, that too because of me. I didn't want anyone to lose their lives because of me. “You don't want to keep me waiting, princess. Do you?” Lucian's voice sliced through the air, snapping me out of my thoughts.I exhaled briefly, then swallowed emptiness before forcing a smile to appear on my face. “I don't understand what you're saying...” I tried to steady my voice, making sure it wouldn't tremble. “What's all this about?” I narrowed my gaze at him as I questioned. His gaze shot up to me, his lips stretching, not enough to call

Chapter 36

THIRTY SIX: JESSICA'S POV “You're tracing out again, Jessica.” It was Willow's voice that jolted me out of my thoughts. I turned and glanced at her, then shook my head. She wouldn't understand, and I had no plans to tell her that the man she admired actually killed those three girls last night. How could I even tell her that? “I'm.. I'm just nervous.” I replied slowly and she dropped the book. She was sitting on a couch before me, but she came to sit on the empty space beside me. I was wondering why, not until she took my hands, then caressed softly before smiling. “I get it, you're nervous because your wedding is in 5 days...” she began. I didn't say a word though; I quietly stared at her, wondering the point she was trying to make from her statement. She smiled, it was brief. “I also know you don't like him, but try not to be nervous huh?” She chuckled, and I forced myself to nod. Well, Willow was partially right. I was nervous about getting married t

THIRTY SEVEN: JESSICA'S POV My brows furrowed, twitching and I returned the gaze back to Lillian, so did the others. “Why did you stop talking?” I asked, mirroring my gaze at her. “I think I saw someone's shadow. More like the person was eavesdropping, but the moment I stopped talking, the shadow disappeared.” She explained and Emily and I shared a confused glance. “Do you think someone did eavesdrop? Why? The girls are all dead anyway, so?” Emily questioned and I shrugged. I had no idea why whoever it was eavesdropped, “Maybe we shouldn't talk about it.” I said.“But I want to know more of what they did.” It was Willow that grunted and we all chuckled. “You don't have to know everything, Willow. And besides, why aren't you with your novel? You need to bury your face in that book.” I muttered playfully and she grinned. Lillian picked the knife from the counter once more and resumed with what she was chopping. Emily went to the fridge to get meat which she b

Chapter 38

THIRTY EIGHT: Lucian's POV“Don't”My voice cut through the air, as sharp as a knifeRaphael froze. His hands were still in midair; he stiffened before slowly dropping to his side. The entire kitchen became silent. It became so quiet that I could hear the refrigerator humming and the hot, frightened breath that was escaping from Jessica’s lips.I stepped forward slowly, my shoes making a sound from the sharp marble tiles. Each sound echoed like a countdown to Raphael’s death."Lucian..." He began, his voice was trembling, but he tried so hard to sound composed.I didn't even bother to reply. My gaze landed on Jessica first; her fingers were trembling. She held Willow behind her, trying to appear brave too. Her face was pale, like a vulture beaten up by endless rain. Though she was pale, her eyes said otherwise; those eyes were steady, unblinking, locking eyes with me.Good. She knew how to get me even without trying.My attention shifted back to Ra

Chapter 39

THIRTY NINE: Jessica's POVImmediately the door shut behind us; silence followed. That silence that can make you hear a pin falling.Willow held me so tightly, like I was going to run away. Well I don't blame her, not after what we experienced down there. I felt my heart beating so fast.First was Raphael, claiming that I bewitched Lucian. Now Lucian is acting so strange.Willow stood for some seconds before walking to the bed and then sat slowly; her face was pale from the incident.“Jessica,” she whispered slowly, still trembling. She was too innocent to face this cruel world."It's over; we are safe now" I said, forcing my voice to sound composed. "No one is going to hurt us here," I continued, which I knew might be a lie deep down. What if Raphael comes in here again? What if he comes and kills us here?She nodded, but her eyes said otherwise; she was still scared, I saw it in her eyes. "H...he was so angry. I thought he was going to kill...""Yes, but he di

Chapter 40

FORTY: LUCIAN'S POV The air felt silent as I came out of Jessica’s room. Her words were living rent free in my head. "I hate you!!!""I hate you, Lucian!!" Those words of hers made me upset. I tried my best to protect her, and all she could do was hate me.Of course, who will love the person that caged her against her will, then forcefully tried to marry her? Absolutely, no one. Moreover I don't mind what people think about me, but there is something about her. I walked slowly to where Gray was standing. My steps moved with great aura."Where is he?" I asked Gray; my voice was more mean than I intended. "Still in the training chamber, boss. He has been there since the incident happened in the kitchen" he replied. “Good” I scoffed. I started walking, my shoes hitting the marble floor and echoing. The corridors were empty, just some guards that got tense anytime they saw me.I entered the training chamber and met Raphael hitting the pun
