The diamond slipped from my pocket and skidded across the polished floor. No. No, no, no A hand reached down and picked it up before I could. Slowly… I looked up. And for the first time that night I felt something close to fear. He was tall. Composed. Dangerous in a way that didn’t need to be loud. His dark eyes locked onto mine like he already knew everything. A slow smirk curved his lips. “I had a feeling you’d show up,” he said calmly. “ The notorious jewel thief.” My stomach dropped.

All seven guards had arrived at the scene, wearing very long faces. "How did she get her hands on this book?" The other one asked before turning to me. "You're a thief, aren't you?" "Thief? No, not at all, " I answered, quite surprised that they'll think that of me. I had never stolen anything all my life and I didn't plan to do so. Sadly, they didn't know me. All they could see was a lowly peasant who would do anything to survive. "Liar!"

Just enough room existed for me to fly straight up and back down to get to my special items. I had a big stack of books I kept right next to my bed. Gera usually found them on the side of the road, sometimes left outside the door of the library, not properly tucked into the slots.

I cleared my throat and tried to sound authoritative. "Let me tell you something… This is a second kidnapping, and that's an extra charge. You'd better put me down right now, or when my cross-stitch kit arrives, I'll hang it right over your bed so you wake up to the majestic mountains every morning."

"It seems that this pack has been in remote parts of the country for many years, which is why they have remained undiscovered for so long." "That explains why they survived so long," Reese said. That was true, but a much more important question came to mind. "Why are you telling us this?" Not that that wasn't interesting, but it didn't explain my boss's behavior. "There's a very simple reason for that." Jilin hesitated a moment, then pushed the folder towards me. But she left her hand on it. “That is all the information we have gathered about the Drein so far. But not all of them are beautiful and some of them can bring back bad memories. ”Jilin looked me in the eye. “Grace, these tattoo num

Unfortunately, our mother saw through our plan and with one spell she closed and strengthened all the doors and windows in the house, cutting off any escape route. Fortunately, I finally managed to break through this protection and we got outside, into the garden, and then into the forest, but my mother caught up with us and trapped all three under an energy dome that seemed to be quite weak, so there was a chance to pass it, but only Oliver would probably survive going through. ~~~~~~~~~

“I know what is running through that devious brain of yours, don’t think for any second that I am not aware of how devilish your mind could become. I am no longer that terrified youth you beckoned with a little crook of your finger, so think well before you hatch an evil plan. “ “Bravo, bravo, what inspiring speeches! “Don Vito applauded. He flicked his finger and suddenly, the gate opened and armed militia surrounded his three guests. He thought he had the last laugh and was so smug that he didn’t notice one of the thugs approach Devlin with a nudge. Devlin knew in an instant who it was and gave a subtle nod to Alonzo and Matan. All three of them rose at the same time and Alonzo announced u

She took her time, removing his phone, his keys, his expensive wrist watch and necklace. It was a veritable gold mine for a thief like her, and when she was done, she silently slipped out of the room, leaving Logan alone and helpless.

CHAPTER 76 “You really said that, Theo?!” “Hmm!” Theo nodded innocently, admitting his own crime without guilt. Which only led to Shia laughing frantically that she laughed so hard. She was clutching her stomach. “Yes! He did. That little boy did!” Eve snapped with a pout, staring at her son with jokingly angry eyes. This made the poor boy confused that he looked at his mother, then to his laughing Aunt Shia. When Shia calmed down a bit to speak, she held Theo’s arm and gently tugged it. “Theo. Didn’t you know? You just put your mommy in great danger!”

"Naomi wants deep-dish pizza. Let’s leave early tomorrow." I shut the laptop and headed back to my room. The second I pushed open the door, an overpoweringly sweet perfume hit me in the face. My princess-style bedroom had been turned into a bunk bed setup. The desk that used to hold all my academic trophies was now covered in Naomi Gibson’s lipstick, foundation bottles, and half a box of leaking strawberries. This room had stopped belonging to me a long time ago. I climbed onto the top bunk and froze when I saw my pillow. That day came crashing back into my mind all over again. Cameron Morrow had ripped Naomi’s exam admission ticket out from inside my pillowcase and hurled it straight at my
