he said, his voice dropping into that quiet, dead register that meant there was no longer any room for negotiations. Bianca didn't raise a weapon. She didn't even flinch as the glass shards bit into the polished leather of her boots. Instead, she slowly raised her left hand, her thumb resting on a small, red plastic detonator that was wired directly into a thick cluster of industrial explosives strapped beneath Adam’s chair.

Where’s the damn girl code? Honestly, Mia is holding up pretty well for just doing a Julia Roberts and becoming the runaway bride. Her fiancé, Damon, will be losing his mind over her disappearing, mainly because his ego just got a big fuck you to the face. You see, Damon is one of those precious species known as a professional football player, a legend on the field. To all those who worship the ground he walks on because he can kick and catch a ball or something like that. He’s a man who no one says no to. Not even his gorgeous fiancée’s soul-sucking best friend. I never liked Tracy. There was always something off about her, like single white female off. But Mia loved her and because of that

“You look like you’ve seen a ghost.” Grace’s voice cracked. “Something terrible just happened and I swear by the goddess it isn’t my fault, it’s that stupid—“ Smite exchanged a look with Sarah, her expression darkening. “Speak clearly, girl.” Grace started shaking her hands, her eyes looking everywhere but their faces. “On my way there, I—I saw that useless maid, Poppy. She was coming from Lady Dahlia’s Quarters, and she had money on her—lots of it! I thought maybe she stole it from somewhere, so I tried to take it before anyone saw.”

I found Maya in her room twenty minutes later, sitting on her bed with her laptop open and her face red from crying. "Maya, I'm sorry you saw that," I said from the doorway. "Can we talk?" "I have something to show you," Maya said, her voice shaking as she turned the laptop toward me. "I was going to wait but after seeing you with her I think you need to know now." I moved closer and looked at the screen, seeing emails between Sophia and someone named Richard Corso. "Who's Richard Corso?" I asked. "CEO of Hastings Corp, your biggest competitor," Maya said quietly. "And according to these emails, Sophia's been feeding him information about the gala guest list, our merger plans, everything."

The Order Adrian stepped into a quiet corner and pulled out his phone. His voice was low. Cold. Controlled. "He's still alive," he said. A brief pause followed. Then he continued: "I want it done today." Silence. "You will go in as a doctor," he added. "Use the injection. Make it clean. No noise. No mistakes." Another pause. Then— "Do it while she's gone." He ended the call slowly. His heart was pounding. Because this time… Failure was not an option. Sofia Leaves the Hospital

I continued. “Monica broke the agreement by introducing herself to Poppy. She was supposed to leave after recovering from childbirth,” Sinclair explained. “I need to brush my teeth.” I walked toward the bed as he approached the sink. I had many questions, but I waited for Sinclair to come out of the bathroom to discuss them. I was worried the case would involve Dashiell. People must not know about the egg theft. “Don’t worry. I’ve spoken to Poppy. She won’t say anything about Dashiell and me. That woman is responsible for my mother’s death. She promised to serve her sentence as atonement for her sins.” Sinclair sat beside me.

I waited to hear a third new voice, but after a short time of not hearing anything, I realized what was different about this room. "We ain't stealin' kidneys or nothin'! We're here to help y'all out," Poppy announced, taking her key ring back from Mia's hand without any resistance, "All I need is yer name and Ultimate if ya got one." Poppy had taken the lead in the information briefing, and her newly returned chipper mood was met by the new guy's mood spiking up as well.

Robin Luciano appeared to be facing his biological mother, Sienna Lori, at his first meeting with Poppy. Sienna has wavy black hair, a slim build, and is as tall as Poppy.

On the other hand, his resentment of Sienna, who has vanished, is expressed through Poppy.
