The image moved on its own, the ink rippling as if it were a living thing. I was hit with a sudden wrongness that was so strong it caused me to take a step back. It was accompanied by that strange glint in her eyes.

Behind the walls of the ancient Maltos Castle, a unique scent of roses and blood coated the air. The room could be described as a black paradise, with black painted walls and thick striped curtains. A huge four-poster bed lay in the middle, the black curtain sheets stretched, wrinkled by the entangled bodies hidden beneath them. The ethereal beauty sprawled on the bed, with the arms of her lover, wrapped around her delicate body. “You smell nice,” he whispered lazily.

Braxton was right. There was something about this mystery woman that I couldn't quite place my finger on. I took in her almond green eyes, framed by thick coal-black lashes, and they were mesmerizing the very second they had met my gaze, and it had felt like every ounce of blood in my body had rushed to my cock.

As I slowly calmed down, I explained to Lawrence what happened the previous night—the purchase of the health supplements, my passionate evening with a celebrity-level beauty, and how Nancy had given me an aromatherapy massage that put me to sleep.

There were different kinds of bottles,bath oil,herbal bottles and bath bombs also. I compared my room in the Silver Claw Pack and this together and I couldn't help but burst into tears. “Natasha what's wrong?” Lisa asked worriedly but that didn't stop the tears. “Can…you…give..me a moment.” I pleaded with Lisa. She sighed and walked outside. When she was gone I cowered to the ground and wept bitterly.I felt a hand around me and I knew it was Ryan.

For several breaths, she could not speak. Wonder moved through her so suddenly and so cleanly that it almost hurt. She had seen fire take shape. She had seen Hell’s palace, the pits, thrones, monsters, wings, impossible magic, nightmares with teeth and prophecies dressed as dreams. But beauty still had the power to ambush her. That was the part she never expected. Beauty still found places inside her that fear had not ruined, places that opened before she could stop them. “Oh,” she whispered, and this time the sound carried gently through the cavern, touched the crystals, and returned to her softened.

“Don’t be shocked, okay? I also reviewed the footage and found out that there was no driver. Jerome traced the plate number but it was odd that it wasn’t even registered.” The hair on the back of my neck stood up after what I heard from him and that made me flinched at the moment. That was the same dark and mysterious night where all I could see was complete darkness in the balcony. I felt a flash of terror on my chest but I didn’t make it transparent to him. Would that be Juno’s doing? She might have wanted to kill me out of jealousy. “Can you promise me one thing, Aris?” I stopped from walking that made him do the same thing.

She finally started to walk and retraced the steps of her master after a minute of waiting for a call but got none in the process. When she got through the shabby entrance, what she saw stopped her in her tracks. Paintings of flowers and nature gathered at one side and at the other were of the family of three in different happy poses. Fade could also see many peculiar metallic things that attracted her vision. She saw Maru open one such thing and got a bottle that contained a chilled liquid inside.

And as for me, I was seen as suspicious due to my clothing and scent. By the time we arrived, I was then led into a mansion like house that was very big and fancy, with gates outdoors guarding the entrance and a fountain in the middle of the place. The balcony like stairs and the beautiful grassland surrounding the mansion made it beautiful.
