LYRA'S OUTBURST

Hours later, I walked back into the estate building and the entire air felt different, heavier even, and expectant, as though everyone already knew something had shifted, and they were waiting to see what I would do next. My heels clicked softly against the marble floors as I walked, I kept my posture straight and my expression unreadable.When I had walked in the last time, only a couple of people had turned to stare. Now, when I walked in, every single person in the estate turned to face me. Whispers kept on trailing behind me, but I ignored all of it.I had far more important things to deal with, and almost right on cue,“Nyssa.”I didn’t stop walking, but I also didn’t need to turn to know who it was. My mother, Sarah. She was standing near the reception desk this time, her arms were crossed and her expression was both tight and controlled“Where are you going?” she demanded, her tone low but sharp.I walked past her without a blink.“Nyssa.” this time, her voice carried more weig

NOT MY BEST FRIEND

“Away from you.”Those words left my lips with a tone that made it pretty clear they were cold and final. For a long second, Lyra just stood there and stared at me like she had not heard me properly. Then, her expression cracked from confusion to anger.“What?” she snapped, “the fuck is wrong with you, Nyssa?”I kept silent, and that only angered her more. Her chest rose and fell rapidly as she took a step forward, her anger almost boiling over.“I am trying as much as possible to be your best friend!” she shouted, her voice cutting through the street and getting the attention of even some bystanders, “I gave you space when you started acting weird. I did not question you when you rejected Adrian, and even when you started doing all of this insane shit -”She gestured wildly from the movers, the boxes and me.“And now?” she continued, her tone filled with disbelief, “I hear you have bought a duplex? Where the hell did you even get all this money?”I tilted my head and studied her, re

YOU NEED ME!

One of the first things I learned back in my last life when I first got mated to Adrian was that money changed things, and it was just as true even now.It didn’t change things in the way people often thought, with comfort or luxury. What it did help with though, was speed, access and the ability to act most times without asking for anyone’s permission.And right now, speed was what I needed. I had told Damien that the herb was going to be scarce for the next few months, and that was right, but what I didn’t tell him though, was that the loss of the shipment was going to happen in three weeks.And that meant I needed to start moving as fast as I could.The warehouse I was eyeing sat at the end of the industrial district. It was not the largest building in the area, nor was it modern. But it was exactly what I needed – something accessible, isolated and most importantly, almost invisible.It was just perfect.With a calculating gaze, I stepped out of my car and adjusted my coat as my e

FIRST KISS

Friday came faster than I expected. I had spent most of the week at the warehouse, and even with the commitment I had coming up later that night, I still spent most of the day at the warehouse.I oversaw the first set of deliveries and made sure everything was packaged well and kept exactly where they needed to be. I was not importing the herbs themselves. No, I didn’t have the time to manage a green house for that. Instead, what I was doing was buying Moonshade herbs, drying them, and grinding them into a packaged product.There was a similar product already on the market, but it was available in very small quantities only and most people usually went for the fresh plants. After all, why get something dried if there was something else that was fresher and more presentable?By the time I left the warehouse, every crate had been checked, every label verified, and every movement accounted for.I walked out of the warehouse with a tired expression on my face, but I couldn’t deny the fact

DAMIEN

“I should not have kissed her,”That was the first thought that crossed my mind. The second thought was far worse: I didn’t regret it,Nyssa stood in front of me, and she was close enough for me to feel the warmth of her breath. And even though seconds had passed after our kiss, the softness of her lips still lingered in my thoughts in a way that shouldn’t be possible.I watched her carefully, not her face, because even though she was clearly shocked by her own actions, she had already schooled her expressions. No, I watched her eyes. That was where I could clearly see the truth.And what I saw made me furrow my brows. Even though she hadn’t planned or accounted for it, she did not regret the kiss. There was no guilt, panic or recoil in her gaze. But there was something far deeper, something that told me she was regretting her own thoughts.A faint shift in her posture gave it away, the way her spine subtly straightened and the quiet withdrawal I could sense. These were all signs tha
