The cold welcome

Sleep refused to come. Even though the bed was soft and more comfortable than anything I had ever slept on before in my life, my mind refused to rest. I kept turning from one side to another in the bed, staring at the unfamiliar ceiling above me. Everything still felt unimaginable.Just a few hours ago, I was still living in my small, cramped apartment, worrying about my poor life. But now, I was lying in one of the most luxurious mansions in the city, married to a cold billionaire I barely knew.I could never imagine my life changing this fast.Slowly, I turned slightly and glanced beside me. Alexander Lucas was still awake, sitting at the desk with his laptop open. He stayed focused, as nothing had really changed for him. The soft light reflected on his face, highlighting his sharp features.He looked completely okay and relaxed. Unlike me, looking disturbed.I quietly watched him for a moment of silence, my thoughts running wild. This man… was now my husband, just like that. Even t

The family rules

The silence in the mansion felt heavier after leaving the dining room.I remained there, standing by the large window for a few more minutes, carefully staring at the peaceful garden outside. The calm scenery was beautiful, yet it couldn’t ease the tension inside me. Their shocking words still echoed in my head endlessly.“Know your place.”I slowly exhaled and admitted that inside this mansion was nothing as it appeared on the outside. Despite the luxury and elegant setting, there was still huge pressure inside…Everywhere was silent, like people were carefully studying me. Then I slowly turned away from the window and began walking through the dining hall. Staff were moving quietly, attending to their duties, yet, I could still feel their cautious glances toward me, as if I was the main topic for everyone.Literally, everything here still felt unfamiliar. Just as I stepped into the hallway, the head housekeeper approached me respectfully.“Ma’am.”I turned slightly to her and answer

The first night

The silence in the mansion after Alexander Lucas left the room felt heavier and more personal, like unseen people eyeing me.I stayed in the sitting room for a brief moment, still holding the folder tightly in my hand. My fingers were slightly stiff from the way I had been gripping it without realizing.The rules were still ringing in my head endlessly. They were not just written anymore… they already had a space in my head.I slowly placed the folder back on the table.Everything in this place felt controlled. Even silence didn’t feel free like my old apartment.I walked out of the sitting room and moved slowly through the hallway, trying to clear my head. The lights in the hallway were dim now. The mansion was quieter than before, as if it had slipped into another world at night.When I reached the bedroom, I immediately paused at the door. I didn’t step inside as expected.I just stood there, noticing. Because something about this room already felt different now. Not because it was

The morning tension

“This mansion is for the weak.” That is all everyone said to me, and now I am just viewing it. But the most surprising part of it is that Mr. Alexander is not back from the hospital yet. When he returns, this house will be even colder.But anyway, I really need to win. Suddenly, a soft knock came at the door.“Ma’am?”I turned slightly and said, “Come in.”The door opened slowly, and a maid stepped in, bowing slightly.“Good morning, Ma’am. Breakfast is ready,” the maid said.“Thank you,” I replied softly.She hesitated for a brief second before adding, “Sir is already downstairs waiting for you.”That small sentence was enough to tighten something in my chest again.“Okay, I’ll be there soon.” She nodded and left respectfully.Slowly, I stood up and took a deep breath, then walked toward the mirror again. I carefully adjusted my dress, making sure everything looked neat and classy. My fingers paused slightly at my hair before I finished fixing it.I stared at my reflection in the mir

The silence pressure

I still stood there for a few seconds after he said that.“Good.”That was all. Just good. No reassurance. No explanation. Just that one simple word. And it settled heavily in my chest.He turned away from me as the conversation had already ended and walked toward the door. For a brief moment, I thought he was going to say something else… something more. But he didn’t.Reaching the door, he paused slightly.Without turning back, he said, “Isabella, prepare yourself. Everything won’t be easy.”And just like that, he walked out. The door closed quietly behind him. I remained standing there in the middle of the room, staring at the space he left behind. My fingers slowly tightened by my side.Everything won’t be easy. Though it was never meant to be easy.Slowly, I let out a deep breath and ran my hand through my hair, trying to steady myself. This uneasy mansion… this cold family… this rough life of mine… it felt like I had been thrown into something I didn’t fully understand.But one t

The complicated level

Everything about that sentence felt too heavy. It wasn’t just a warning. It felt like something certain, like he had already foreshadowed what was coming.As I walked in, the mansion felt so different.Not because anything had changed physically, but because I knew Mr. Alexander was returning soon. The atmosphere had totally changed. The staff seemed different. Their movements were quicker than before. Their faces were more serious. No one was wasting time. No one was speaking carelessly. Everywhere was literally tense.I kept walking quietly, trying to remain focused and calm. But deep down, my thoughts were moving faster than I could control.What if he questions me again?What if he notices something wrong with my emotions?What if I make one mistake?What if he becomes concerned about my background?I took a deep breath and continued forward.Immediately upon entering the main hallway, the head housekeeper approached me respectfully.“Ma’am.”I turned to her slowly and answered, “

The return of power

Immediately, I heard the words, and my heart reacted in fear.“He is asking for all the family members in the main sitting room.”I stood up immediately, carefully, and said,“I’m coming.”The maid bowed and left.For a brief second, I stood there alone, staring at the ceiling. Then I took one deep breath.This was it.Everything had reached its peak already.When I entered the main sitting room, several people were already there, sitting quietly.Alexander Lucas coldly stood near the fireplace. Alexander William leaned against one side casually. Two middle-aged women I had met earlier were seated quietly. And at the center of it all… Mr. Alexander.He was seated in a large chair, showing he was the head of the family. Though he still looked physically weak, nothing else about him looked weak.The room setting was tense because everyone’s expression spoke of power.The moment I stepped in, every eye turned to me.Especially Mr. Alexander.I greeted him respectfully.“Good evening, sir

The Dinner Setting

I remained standing there in the hallway for a few seconds after Alexander Lucas walked past me, while his words still echoed endlessly in my head.“You handled that better than I expected.”Then, just as quickly after he praised me, he said this:“Don’t become comfortable.”That was how he always behaved. When one of his hands pulled you slightly forward, the other pushed you back a step.Slowly, I exhaled and continued walking toward the bedroom. My steps were calm, like everything was okay, but inside me, everything wasn’t moving well.Tonight, I had survived again. But tomorrow was already waiting ahead of me. And within myself, I knew tomorrow would surely come with more pressure.The room was quiet when I entered. I closed the door behind me and leaned slightly against it for a moment. My body suddenly felt tired, as if all the strength I had forced out of myself downstairs had finally left.I walked tiredly toward the mirror.My reflection, my body shape, looked the same. But m

Dinner with power

The woman questions was still amazing me, but I didn't react instead I smiled faintly and answered“Yes, ma’am.”She sat down and adjusted her scarf elegantly.“I assumed this house would have frightened you away by now.”Before I could answer, Mr. Alexander interrupted sharply.“No. If she leaves, it will not be because of fear.”The room went tense and silent.The woman quickly lowered her head.“Of course, sir.”I remained still, but inside, I was surprised.Was he defending me?Or simply protecting his decision?With him, nothing was simple.And nothing could be sidelined.Breakfast ended soon after.Alexander Lucas stood first and said, “I’m leaving for work now.”He looked at me briefly.“Be ready by seven for dinner.”“Yes,” I replied.He walked away.William followed shortly after, but not before giving me one unreadable glance.Then only Mr. Alexander and I remained, with a few staff nearby attending to their duties.He wiped his hand slowly and stood with assistance from his

The dangerous shift

That tiny reaction from Alexander Lucas stayed in my mind longer than it should have.It was barely a smile. But my head couldn’t possess it.Just the slight movement at the corner of his mouth before he returned to his laptop as if nothing had happened. But somehow, it unsettled me more than his coldness ever had.Because coldness was predictable. The Silence was familiar. But there is something warmer than usual from him?And that was dangerous.I stood there for a moment after removing my shoes, watching him quietly from across the room. His attention was already back on the glowing screen in front of him. His fingers moved across the keyboard calmly, steadily, like he carried no burden at all.Meanwhile, my own thoughts were in complete disorder Because Dinner with Mr. Alexander had changed something so far.I could feel it.The old man’s words still echoed inside me.You are not as weak as they think.No one in this house had spoken to me that way before. Everyone else here had t
