“And they don’t know I exist?” Victor shook his head. “Not yet.” Ethan looked at the black sedan. Then at the mansion looming behind him. Everything in his life felt like it was standing on unstable ground. “If I agree, where would I go?” Ethan asked quietly. “The Cross Estate.” “That place still exists?” “ It was rebuilt in secrecy. Only the inner circle members are aware of its location.” Victor replied. Ethan exhaled slowly. “And you expect me to just walk into this life?”

It means spending every night for the next month in this apartment, breathing the same air, dissecting the worst moment of my life with the man who caused it. "Priya thinks I’m insane for working with you," I say, trying to find some ground to stand on. "Priya is right," Cole admits. He leans back, his eyes searching mine. "I am the last person you should trust. But I’m the only one who knows where Dex hides the bodies." My phone pings on the table. It’s a text from Theo. *Hey sis, you okay? Some guy named Dex came by the music hall today. Said he was a friend of yours?*

"We're almost there." He raised his hand to a taxi driver at the other side of the parking lot. The taxi driver drove his beat-up Toyota towards us. A small man in a white dress shirt and Khaki pants jumped out. "Where are you going, sir?" the man spoke in accented English. Dad unfolded his map of the modern city and squinted over it for what seemed like forever.

I am Daisy, the queen of your land; Daughter of King Magnus; sister of King Arthur and here I stand before you as Queen. Princess Nella will resume back to her original powers now that I have returned and I promise you to be the Queen you deserve” she smiles and looks at the thousands of audiences seated in the gallery and the millions who are watching from their homes through the media. “Where have you been all this while Queen?” A male Journalist questions.

How can he still be good to me after what I did to him? I looked at him and my eyes went down on his neck and noticed a small and shiny object on his neck. "You're still wearing it," I whispered but just enough for him to hear it. He hummed, "It was a gift from you… the best I ever received." That made me smile. I reached for his necklace and ran my fingers on the pendant. It was a lion pendant necklace. Lion 'coz his zodiac sign is Leo. I bought it with my own savings. I did some extra work on their farm to earn some money without him being suspicious. I even sold my paintings to my teachers.

"Technically speaking, Hector is the owner of DreamSmith. I believe he has a plan to use his influence as DreamSmith's owner to cause a rift between his family and the Connors." "Yes, I see your point." replied Derek as he took Hector's suggestion into deep consideration. "Since grandma seconded Hector's suggestion, and no one seems to disagree, Hector, we will go with your suggestion. Maybe you can work with Chloe and Madison on that."

The room sat with that. "We need someone who's been inside that compound," Fallen said. "The layout. The numbers. Guard rotations." She was already half standing, her coat in her hand. "The rogues we've taken — I'll start tonight."

We’re only here for twenty minutes, but when we step outside again, it feels like closing a chapter, even if it was only a really short one. We make it back to the cabin by noon, and the mood shifts the moment we walk through the door. Jaxon comes hurtling toward us the second he hears us, his little arms flinging around his dad’s legs before Ryder can even crouch down to his level. Parker follows closely behind, leaning against the door frame. “I have a surprise for you,” Ryder grins, reaching into one of the bags and pulling out the Lego box.
