Lotus Casebook Novels & Stories

I crept silently to the window and peered through the narrow gap in the curtains. Inside the living room, Lydia sat on the couch. Several books lay open on the table, their covers etched with runes that I couldn't understand. A black wooden box rested nearby—a tool of dark magic. So, it was her! Lydia cast the spell! I waited for a few minutes. She finished her drink, stood up, and headed toward the stairs. Seizing the opportunity, I slipped inside her house and moved quickly to the table. I grabbed the books and flipped through them, searching for anything about the curse.

I narrowed my eyes at her. What was her game? "She's as slithery as a snake," Lotus remarked, observing her every move. He clearly didn’t trust her, and I could feel his annoyance rising. "She's acting a bit strangely," I replied. "She's making me uncomfortable," Lotus growled, gesturing to her fingers stroking my arm. "Is she trying to seduce me?" I muttered, feeling sheepish. "That will be the day," Lotus growled, forcing Sade to quickly withdraw her hand. "That's much better!" he barked. "Keep your filthy paws to yourself!"

Marcus POV Victory in a courtroom is a strange and difficult thing especially when you have a case against the Federal government . You walk out through those heavy oak doors with your freedom technically intact, the charges dismissed, the gavel final verdict was swung in your favour. Then your phone lights up. Then another problem surfaces. Then another. And you begin to understand that the trial was never the war. It was just the opening ceremony.

Before Riley and Ezra could escape, four policemen stepped into the hall. “Miss Aster, Madam Riley, and Mr. Ezra, you are hereby arrested for having a link to the accident of Miss Lotus and Madam Serenity; embezzlement of the Meyer company funds…”

Lotus, my head bouncer said as she walked up to me. My eyes darted to the huge bundles of cash that she was holding. The clubs had been doing well. We had a lot of customers and the Santoro family had suffered a huge loss after I stole the money in the vault and ran away. It was the least they owed me for what they did. “ Lotus, I told you not to walk around with bundles of cash. What if the cops show up?” I asked shaking my head as I walked to the bar. “ We already have an inside man. Why should we be afraid? Besides, everything is legal.” Lotus said as she dropped the money on the counter.

"I won't!" Livia's eyes were red. She was past the point of caring. "You know why she's given up completely? You think it's just a tantrum? You think it's because of the family's law? Dante, she's known all along that you've been deliberately swapping the lots!" Dante's pupils contracted sharply. He went cold. "What did you say?"

Dad suffered a sudden cerebral hemorrhage from overwork and was hospitalized. The nurse couldn’t reach Mom. So ten-year-old Asher was told to take Dad’s bank card to withdraw money to pay the hospital fees. Instead, Asher handed the lottery box to the nurse.
