Novel & Cerita Breaking The Cardinal Rule

He lifts a brow and when I stare at him with confusion clear in my eyes, he proceeds to say, "The arrangement rules. " "Those have been broken for long, Ford. " I tell him, reminding him of how quick we were to break the rules that we were so sure we would keep to. "I know, but there was one particular rule, Carson. One that claimed your body as mine, " he explains, and I nod; remembering the words he forged into a rule that night.

"But I only held it out. The glass sucked it in, you saw it. There was no way for me to throw the bread in." "It was because of your intention," It added. "You intended to feed those fish, and the system reacted to your intention. That counts as a violation of the rule." "I think it's not just a rule, but a curse," Gawin said, his voice strained. He looked at Ploy's hand, then at James. "And what are we going to do with James...?"

Maybe I was the stupid one after all. Don’t fall for him. It was the first rule, the unspoken truth of this arrangement. And I was breaking it so fast it should’ve been illegal.

It was a door. A door the Ledger was using to keep him contained. A door I could rip open. If I was willing to pay whatever the system demanded for breaking it. Behind me, Lumi made a broken sound—half laugh, half sob. “Do it,” she whispered. “Before it recalculates.” The Heart shuddered. The Ledger’s hum turned sharp. A final, cold message pulsed through the air like a blade sliding from a sheath: NEW RULE GENERATED. IF DEVIATION CANNOT BE DELETED—

"I was going to let him, Daddy. Really. I had it all planned out for Monday morning. But... he broke my rules. He’s officially disqualified." I froze. . What rule? What did I do? "What rule?" Mr. Sterling asked. "He touched himself," she said, her voice turning icy. "He couldn't handle the wait. He broke the Golden Rules." My heart dropped into my stomach. Did she see me? Wait. Is she seeing me right now?

They were frantically trying to fix their clothes. The guy froze mid-buttoning when he realized I hadn't left yet. He turned toward me, his wide eyes locking onto mine as he took me in. I cleared my throat. "But hey, whatever. Rules are meant to be broken." He looked away and resumed buttoning his shirt. I let out a sharp sigh. "Next time, be more careful. Not everyone is as nice as I am," I deadpanned.

“Any rules?” He shrugged before replying. “I believe we are all mature. No expensive play that’ll possibly cause drowning and violence is prohibited.” Bobbing my head to show I understood, I returned my gaze to Maxwell, cracked my head and fingers before exclaiming. “Let’s begin!” “I’m going to show y’all who is boss,” Maxwell screamed and hauled himself onto the Unicorn’s back, causing it to dip violently. He windmilled his hands and stayed on. “And that's how it's done.”
