Until that time, the company will be entrusted to the capable hands of my esteemed friend and brother-in-law, Chairman Vincent Lee Feng.” "Sarah manages a brief smile, hugging her grandfather and granduncle tightly. 'Oh my God, it's actually happening,' she thought, a knot of anxiety tightening in her stomach. 'So, help me God.' Her grandfather has mentioned it days ago, but she hadn't anticipated this – a formal announcement in front of the entire family." Among the assembled relatives, Benjie Lao's eyes flashed with fury.

That's my real name now. So book the best stylist in the city," I said. "I want a dress that makes every person in that room forget every other woman who walks through the door. Remi smiled slowly."And Damian," he said. I set the invitation down, picked up my pen and opened the next file on my desk."Damian Cole is going to walk into that gala thinking he is there for a business opportunity," I said.

How he brought down an empire with a single roar and burned a third of the vampire dominion in the space of a night. They think they killed that line. Buried it with fire and silence.
