SummerEvery head in the dining room turned in Grace's direction the moment she walked in. My eyes widened, and before I could stop myself, I called out her name with excitement.Grace froze in the middle of her steps. She looked at me with clear surprise, obviously caught off guard by my reaction. Fiona's eyes moved from me to Grace, her expression full of suspicion."Do you two know each other?" Fiona asked Grace, her tone making it sound like simply knowing me was some kind of offense.I had made another mistake, I my excitement, I had forgotten who I was supposed to be. I wasn't Summer anymore , I was Elena. Grace held my gaze for a brief moment before answering. "No, I have never met her," she said, giving me a cold, piercing look.I quickly cleared my throat, trying to cover up my mistake. "Sorry. She just looks like someone I know," I said.Fiona slowly rose from her seat, her face filled with disgust. "I've lost my appetite. I can't sit at the same table as a peasant like he

Summer "Who are the Marcini brothers, and what did I do to them?" I asked."Well, they are the leaders of an Italian mafia organization," Amelia explained. "They're ruthless and don't forgive anyone. A few months ago, you scammed them, and they've been hunting you ever since."I rubbed my hand over my face, silently regretting everything I had done today. Maybe I should have been nicer to Ethan. If the Marcini brothers ever found their way here, this family wouldn't hesitate to throw me out of the estate to save themselves."I don't think the king is going to protect me," I said quietly."Elena, I'm begging you. Do whatever you have to do to make sure he doesn't hand you over to those men," she said. "If you have to seduce him, if you have to sleep with him, then do it. You can't even begin to imagine what the Marcini brothers would do to you."Even through the phone, I could hear the fear and panic in her voice. If these brothers were really that dangerous, what could Elena possibl

Summer The moment I saw the men, I froze. My eyes locked with theirs, and fear wrapped itself around my heart so tightly that I could barely breathe. There was something terrifying about the way they looked. Their faces held no trace of kindness or humanity. They looked like predators that had finally cornered their prey, and I was that prey.For a brief second, I lowered my head and shut my eyes. A bitter laugh almost escaped my lips. I wanted to curse the Moon Goddess for giving me a second chance at life when she already knew I was only going to die again, and probably in an even more horrible way. What was the point of saving me if this was how everything would end? Why give me hope only to snatch it away?One of the brothers slowly rose to his feet. "Thank you for taking care of her," he said to Fiona before turning his attention to me.Then he started walking in my direction. Every step he took made my heart pound even harder against my chest. I stood completely still, unable t

Summer The brothers grabbed hold of me and started dragging me toward the front door. As they pulled me across the living room, my eyes drifted to the exact spot where I had fallen and broken my neck.I stared at it for a long moment before slowly shaking my head. So, it had all been for nothing. Everything I had gone through. Every ounce of pain. Every sacrifice. None of it had changed my fate.A bitter smile tugged at my lips. The Moon Goddess could be so cruel. She had given me a second chance only to throw me right back into the same nightmare. If this was how my story was always meant to end, then why save me in the first place?Just as we reached the door— "Stop."Ethan's deep voice echoed through the living room. The brothers came to an abrupt halt, their grip on me tightening as they turned around.I slowly lifted my head, hardly believing what I had just heard."I won't let you take her away," Ethan said firmly. "She's in a vulnerable condition, and it's obvious she doesn't
