The woman’s smile froze awkwardly on her face. I glanced at her briefly. I had already looked into her background yesterday. Pearl Maddon. A streamer on a platform called TikTok. Her specialty was disguising herself as people in marginalized professions to conduct so-called "social experiments." She must have pretended to be deaf and mute to record my reaction as content for her videos. But her carelessness caused her to crash into me, ruining the footage and likely making it unusable for editing. That explained why there had been no new updates yesterday.

"Our legacy, Aric, is not measured in grand monuments or statues in our likeness. It is the collective spirit of Emeridia—the resilience, the unity, and the commitment to progress—that will endure. Our legacy is the transformation we have witnessed in the hearts and minds of the people. It is the symphony of renewal that will continue to play on long after we are gone." Aric nodded, a sense of peace settling over him. "You're right, Kaida. Our legacy is the ripple effect of our actions, the inspiration we've sparked in others. It's the countless individuals who now believe in their ability to make a difference, to contribute to the symphony of renewal. We've shown them that change is possibl

That same day, news of Lucien temporarily taking over Lucas Corporation hit the trending charts. Online, people were buzzing about how even heroes couldn’t resist love—William Lucas had given up his legacy for the woman he loved. At the same time, another piece of news broke. The Xander family had set up a memorial for Layla on the seventh day after her death, building a symbolic gravesite and officially marking the date as her memorial day. The internet blew up with backlash: “She’s gone, and you’re still trying to milk the attention? Putting on a show for the living? That’s just gross.”

I quickly went to an online news platform on my laptop, and the trending topic made me freeze: JUSTICE FOR LACROIX BOY KILLED IN AN ACCIDENT BY BILLIONAIRE CEO, SEBASTIAN CARVERS. Only one name came to my mind. Liora.

I leaned my head on her shoulder and whispered, “I can’t. You guys are rabbits. You started with one and now you have millions of grand kids.” Virelle threw back her head laughing and replied, “You are never serious, are you ? Just like the naughty sextuplets ! And it is not that bad. Wolves are involved in so many wars, so we tend to produce many offsprings to keep the legacy alive !!” “Good excuse,” I rolled my eyes. As if they all were from royal families and had a legacy to continue. Legacy my ass. “Remind me to never set a c*ndom company at your pack. I will be out of business in a few days,” I grinned.

The ink was uneven, as if the writer’s hand had trembled. My Sons, I don't expect forgiveness. I don't even expect you to read this. But I had to try. I have spent the last six months in a cell, thinking about legacy. I thought legacy was a name. I thought it was money. I thought it was control. I see now that I was wrong. Legacy is memory. And my legacy... my legacy is fear. That is what I leave you. That is what you will remember when I am gone. I wanted to change that. Just a little. Before the end.

POV: Lilah When I was a kid, legacy had meant two things: An old guy in a suit on TV left his company to a smarmy son, or a cursed script that said, “You die on an altar so everyone else lives.” Neither of those was on my vision board anymore. “What do you think?” I asked, fingers hovering over the stack of printed pages on the council table like they might bite. Naomi perched backward on a chair beside me, craned her neck to read the title.

"Bearer bonds?" Wallace's breathing quickened in an instant. "The thing is…" I paused and sighed, as if disappointed. "Those bonds have a three-year lock-in period. You can't cash them until they mature. And you know how my dad was—he was super particular about tradition. Before he died, he said his grave couldn't be touched unless a direct family member stayed there for three years to honor him. Otherwise, it would bring bad luck." Wallace's eyes gleamed with excitement.

But she didn’t feel dangerous tonight. She felt…abandoned. And then—her phone buzzed. Unknown number. A text message. Just one line. “You’re not the only one who bleeds for legacy. —L” Her breath caught. Her lips parted. She reread it. Legacy. That word wasn’t just a crown. It was a curse.
