Elara pulled up to her estate gate, already exhausted from the emotional whiplash of the day. But the security guard stepped out of the booth, looking overwhelmed. "Ma'am, we have a... situation. These were delivered for you an hour ago."Behind the gate sat ten massive bouquets, each packed so tightly with tulips that they looked like solid walls of color. Ten bouquets, a thousand tulips each. Ten thousand flowers sat there, glowing under the streetlights. Elara reached out and pulled the small, cream-colored card from the nearest one."I'll love you a thousand times over. ~Love, Alex."Elara started coughing uncontrollably, the sheer audacity of the gesture hitting her like a physical blow. She clutched the card, her eyes watering. 'Ten thousand tulips? So now remembers?' "Ma'am? Where do you want them?" the guard asked, scratching his head.Elara tucked the card back into the petals and straightened her back, her face hardening into a mask of indifference.

We’ll reschedule.""Thank you for being so understanding," she said, feeling a wave of relief.Ethan gestured to the menu. "At least let me get you some take-out to go.

The streetlights caught the sharp lines of his suit and the dark intensity in his eyes. Her heart got caught in her throat. He looked like a dream—a perfect, handsome dream—and it

Alexander's blood was boiling. He smoothed Lyra’s hair. She was shuddering and shaking like a leaf."Whose fatherless child put a hand on my boy?" Joseph Murano yelled. His voice was loud. You could hear it from inside the office."Who touched you, Jamie?" Joseph asked his son.Jamie started sobbing hysterically. "It was Leo Vance, Daddy. He threatened me. He pushed me to the ground and yelled at me.""Vance? Who the fuck is that?" Joseph barked. "A vermin with an unrecognizable last name dared to touch my child. Do you know how much I've put into this school? I'm one of your biggest benefactors! I built your annex and science labs!""I know sir, I completely understand. It's unacceptable," Josh pacified him."I want them expelled immediately. If that's not done by the end of the day, your monthly payments stop immediately. I'll convince the other parents to do same. What's the point of the kick backs if you're going to be useless Milton!"The door swung open. Josh Milton, the directo

Paparazzi were going crazy at the Vanguard City airport. They had been tipped off that a powerful woman had just landed. When she walked through the gates, everyone stopped to stare.She was beautiful and exuded pure power. Her eyes were striking, and she was dressed in designer clothes from head to toe. Every brand she wore was rare and hard to find.Beside her was a handsome man. He carried a young boy in his arms. The woman held a beautiful little girl who looked just like her."Mummy," the girl called out, "is this where we'll be living?""Yes, Lyra," she replied, her voice smooth and confident."Let's get ready to conquer this city, babies," she said to her children.Her whole life had done a 360. She was no longer Elara Smith, but Elara Vance.She had finally returned to the city with her twins, Leo and Lyra. By her side was her brother, Alistair Vance who had found her six years ago, right after Alexander Sterling had completely shattered her heart.She still hadn't forgotten t
