A small stream of warmth spreads through my heart and soul as we engage in conversation that feels more normal than anything else in the last few weeks. "Sounds like you and Jacob are finally becoming friends," Chia comments. We exchange a knowing look- a memory of our meeting at that... prison of sorts. And as all good things seemed to come to an end eventually. A clatter and a crash next to us immediately took everyone's attention. "I'm so sorry," the maid says, glass spread across the floor, but it wasn't the glass that concerned me. I feel Chia tense next to me as the blood rolls down the maid's hand and drips onto the floor. A few other maids quickly came to her aid.

Leland collapsed to the ground, his body twitching violently, struggling in the final throes of life. "H-How did you find my life-bound parasite?" Leland asked in disbelief. "Because I'm the bane of all broodmancers," Cassian replied with a faint smile. "I won't let you get away with this, punk!" Leland gritted his teeth, his expression filled with hatred. "Don't bother making any more empty threats. Since your life-bound parasite is dead, you're about to die soon. I do hope you can hold out for a little longer to see how your people end up dying too, though," Cassian said.

But when I saw Tatiana's name on the screen, I was genuinely shocked. In both lives, we had never exchanged a private phone call. We both loved Matthew. In my past life, I refused to give him up, and she hated me for a lifetime. She even taught my own son to reject me. In this life, I retreated first. I removed myself from everything and escaped to the far Northern Territory. I never imagined we would speak at all. After a moment's hesitation, I answered. "Why aren't you coming back for the Full Moon Festival?" Her voice was stiff and unfriendly. It completely lacked warmth.

"You provoked Jason on purpose! You're a murderer!" After venting her anger out, she hurried off to find Vivian and Jason barefooted. I watched them leave, then looked at my phone. The notification about the cancellation being approved and the cancellation fee being processed had just come in. My heart ached. I couldn't breathe. I felt like I was drowning.

I lifted the glass of water in my hand and clinked it lightly against his. “Here’s to a successful partnership, Mr. Caspian.” Moonlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, stretching our shadows across the room. Each of us stood in our own corner, like two polite strangers sharing the same space. Outside, the city glowed brightly in the night. Only then did I truly feel that I had been given a second life. In this life, I only wanted one thing: to use the Falcone family’s resources to earn enough money to stand on my own and then walk away from all of this for good.

Three years after faking my death, Adrian Shaw and our son found me. I fought to get away from them. I cried. I struggled. I told them I'd rather die than go back. Then my seven-year-old son put his hand on my mother's ventilator. Adrian stood beside him, and his voice shook when he said it. "Mia, you pick. "Either your mother suffocates in that bed, or you're Mrs. Shaw again." I was shaking so hard I could barely stand up. But I didn't have a choice. I signed the papers and married him a second time. When I walked back into that house, I became the perfect wife and the perfect mother. Whenever my adopted sister Nina was upset and needed Adrian with her, I never called him — not

I rushed back from out of town overnight when my best friend, Siobhan Coventry, went into labor. After learning that both mother and child were safe, I got teary-eyed with emotion. "Have you decided on the baby's name yet?" I asked. Her smile stiffened unnaturally for a moment. "Leonard Kessler. We'll call him Leo." "Kessler?" I stared at her in surprise. "I thought you said the baby would take your last name. Is his biological father's last name Kessler?" She gave me a vague hum before quickly changing the subject. "Ginny, I've been craving the wraps from that place in the college town." I nodded, forcing my doubts aside, and went out to buy one for her. It was only when I reached the

On the day Dad made me draw lots to choose a wife, I was about to draw a number when comments started flashing past. [Don't do it! The whole thing is rigged. You’ll only end up married to a hideous woman and be stuck in a cold, heartless marriage alliance with the Wests!] [You’ll end up the target of enemies of the West family even before you marry their daughter. You’ll fall into their devious trap and get burned to ashes in a fire!] [Your childhood sweetheart Mindy Sullivan has a bark that’s worse than her bite. Her disdain and disregard is just a farce. She really loves you. Marrying her is the right move!] My hand froze in midair. I told my dad that I wanted to marry Mindy. On my
