Haley looked at it. Then at the camera. "Declined." She tapped the invoice with one manicured finger. The old goddess placed her hand over Haley's. Susan placed hers over both. Across the world, millions of people stood up from their knees. Not because sunlight stopped mattering. Because gratitude did not require slavery. The invoice cracked. Ra's boat shook.

Mirror ships sang it. The firewall trust picked it up and turned it into review language.

There they were, ten neatly handwritten copies of The Imperial Codex of Virtues, complete without a single missing word. "Thanks for cooperating. Welcome to my livestream room."

The notary slid the last page toward me and held out a pen. I thought of the other page, the one with a partner's name in the corner. For years, I had been proud of having refused to sign it. I'd told myself that made me clean. It didn't. I had refused the paper and handed over everything else, one favour at a time, and called it loyalty. My hand wasn't steady.

"Whatever you give up, she will not return it with trust or warmth or access. You are signing away your rights under the expectation of a return that she has given no indication she will provide."

But it’s okay, when she wants to talk, I’ll be here to explain myself. I sit in front of the computer still in my room and answer some work messages, some are from custom requests and other congratulations and partnership invitation. My gaze fixed on the e-mail that I could not read because Tobias had entered my room as if he were the owner. Smiling.

Clairol said almost whisper when she feel weaken all of a sudden. “Where?” Draven still looking at her intently while he was slowly guiding her body swaying for a dance. “Go home.” Clairol tried to not get distracted from the man—doing to her body. They were closed to each other. Coincidentally, the music sudden change into a romantic music that pushing their awkward bodies into a fluid rhythm. “It's too early.” Draven said while they continued dancing slowly. “I have still work tomorrow.” “How about I send you home?” Draven suggest. He don't want to end his night like this. There's something on this woman that makes him doing some unthinkable.

It's for the best. . . With a knock on my door, Ryan came into my cabin with a file in hand. "Sir, here are the papers you asked for. Your lawyer has asked you to contact him personally when you can." He said and put the file on my desk. With a heavy heart, I picked it up and checked the papers inside. I hated reading them but I had to. DIVORCE AGREEMENT It's for the best. I told myself and got up from my desk. "Have you cancelled all my appointments for today?"

I’m not trying to do anything to you, and I’ll be fine lying on the same bed with you till the morning. It’s too cold outside.” Kyran swallowed a gulp of saliva. “I know you’re not trying to do anything to me…” ‘It’s me who is scared I’ll do something to you.’ He could not bring himself to type that. He remembered how she resisted him in the past, and he had already done everything he could to avoid being that disgusting self.
