This university, however ideal it might seem at its core, still operates on the daily spenditure of money and resources. And the Hurons are the ones who provide these money and resources.” He pauses, and tries to recollect his memory: “I think a few years ago Mr and Mrs Huron donated 10 million to our department. That’s where yours and Martha’s scholarship came from: a small portion of this donation’s annual interests.” “I know.” “Do you remember in our class, when we compared the image of lotus in Eastern and Western

The whole mafia world knows that Laura was the mistress of Luke Morris' father. "Sir Theo said we can settle everything if you agree to meet with the Lord of the Phoenixes." I gritted my teeth. "We lost six men and he wants to settle everything? No!" "Sir Theo insisted, sir. We have to secure the Sanford HQ since we're protecting Miss Blue and Lady Sunny."

The only difference that set us apart was the fact that I pursued him for five long years. I was just about to leave when I received a text message from Julian. "I'll be waiting for your 100th proposal tomorrow." I smiled faintly before blocking his number and deleting every last trace of him from my contacts. After bidding all my colleagues goodbye, I left the company with my suitcase in hand and headed straight for the airport. ... The next day, Julian kept his word and appeared at city hall in a sleek suit.

"Who is it?" "It's the humans," the Guardian on watch spoke. "Almost a thousand of them. One of the scouts says he saw banners with the gold lily emblem." "The Sage King," I muttered to myself. I wasn't exaggerating when I said they could outnumber us ten to one. Luckily, with the advancement of our new recruits and some craftier methods, we may be able to pull this off, but I didn't want to fight them. I had hoped taking out the pack of Strigoi would have prevented this from happening, but it appeared I couldn't have been more wrong. I looked up to see the men all staring at me, waiting for orders from their commanding officer. I glanced at Dimitri, hoping to find the answer in his eyes, bu

I tagged several more staff in the group chat who also had the same kind of rare blood as Chloe. [@ZoeSmith @JakeMartinez, aren't you both RH-Negatives too? Why aren't you going?] [Or are you both into Chloe too?] RH-Negative blood had always been precious. If they had been willing to go, they would not have been stirring things up in the group chat.

Silvia had a rough idea about the number of warriors in Alonso's army. They were far less as compared to the Royal Army. But Alonso's men were vicious. They weren't skilled fighters like Moon Pack warriors. Alonso's men just know how to use brute force to win. Silvia was calm as the silent deep ocean when Alonso motioned her to open a portal. She let out a deep breath before filling her lungs with air. Her eyes snapped up and she let the power buzz through her veins. "I'll open three portals in total. One outside the hall gate, one at the main entrance, and one inside the hall," She said confidently.

I used to believe that even if she graded me from zero, by the hundredth time, I would've gotten a perfect score, and she'd finally agree. So, I chose to propose for the hundredth time on my 30th birthday, hoping to start a new decade and a new chapter with her. I had assumed she would say yes without a doubt this time.

But for the poor people of the town. Her team grew the more she saved people from the tyrant king. She now has twenty men and women who steal from the rich to give to the poor.
