she added. “That’s the usefulness of the stealing,” Victor replied calmly, like he was explaining something as simple as why the sky is blue. “I hijack the Skoll pack’s shipments, rebrand them, and then sell them at a cheaper price to feed the whole pack.” Mia stared at him like he had grown two heads. She didn’t believe a single word he said. Her hands went to her waist and she started pacing around the room. That was her thing— she paced when she was trying to control her anger.

The executive I meet on a dating app, Eric Cole, convinces me to invest in a supposedly foolproof investment scheme. After weeks of him wearing me down, I invest my entire savings of one million dollars. The next morning, I open the app and find a message saying the server is unavailable. Confused, I assume it's just a system update and immediately text my perfect boyfriend. But the message won't go through. Realizing the investment platform has vanished, I rush to the cybercrime unit to report it. After tracing the IP, the police tell me I've fallen for a classic scam. I'm stunned. Eric and I have even picked out names for our future children! No matter how many chat logs I provide,

The Villain I'm wiping down the counter at the diner when all chatter ceases expeditiously. I look up to find the reason for the lack of breath from most of the patrons standing at the doorway, angry green eyes fixed on me. I unconsciously gulped as he stalked closer, eyes narrowed. "Aren't you forgetting something?" I looked around, every eye in the diner was fasten on us. "Um.. no?" I said unsurely. He came up to the counter, his arms flexing under his shirt as he grips the marble. "We made a deal, princess. Don't tell me you go back on your promises."

The husky words had me trembling until he continued, "You challenge me, you die. And your friends die. One less cat and two humans means nothing to me." Even his threat was sexy as hell. "Do you plan to let me pee inside the bathroom or would you like me to mark your leg?" He released me and I'd swear I saw the corner of his lip tilt up. "Hurry," he grumbled. I fought not to run away. I walked slowly knowing my hips swayed. What he didn't know was I'd played this game before. It kept me alive. I would trade my body for the lives of my friends. If Ivan wasn't in charge of what happened to them, chances were a vampire was. Blood sucker, wolf, or both... I would use my body to save the people I

Scarlett commanded, turning to the vampire. "Are you insane?" Valerius grabbed her shoulders. "That’s raw stellar energy! It will burn your meridians to ash!" "I don't need to hold the energy. I just need to use it as a signal booster," Scarlett said, her voice dropping into a cold, absolute authority. She raised her jade brush, the tip trembling but resolute. "The Creators think they are the only ones who know how to hack a system. I'm going to show them what a 'Soul-Invasion' looks like."

I struggled, but I was nothing in their hands. “Jayden!” My father lunged forward, but the scarred man blocked him. “Relax, Mr. Talon,” he said with a smile. “As long as you cooperate, we will not touch him.” “What exactly do you want?”

I pitched forward and crashed awkwardly onto the cold deck. Frederick towered over me with a sneer. "You're the type who would do anything for money. What wouldn't you stoop to?" As I lay there, sweating profusely from the intense pain, my mind remained surprisingly clear. The system prompted: "Frederick's affection dropped by 10, heartbreak value up 20%. Suggest activating Victim Mode to accelerate task rewards."

"Look at you, all eager to please. You didn't even offer anything in return. Why would she help you out?" He then handed me a card. "I'm Daniel Jenkins. Here's a little something for our first meeting. ZenWave's beauty clinics are all part of my family business. With this card, you can enjoy unlimited visits." ZenWave was a well-known, high-end beauty clinic chain. A single visit there could cost tens of thousands of dollars. This gift was too generous. I didn't take the card, but Leon snatched it from Daniel's hand and stuffed it into mine.

Scar sits up, realizing her trick failed, she starts bargaining, “Give me a good reason why I have to do it.” “You are giving him two billion dollars, and you don’t even want a thank you from him?” Silco answers with a question. “Nope, I’m THAT generous,” Scar fakes a smile. Silco laughs at her capricious tantrum, teasing: “Well, I’m not. I want my money spent with the beneficiary acknowledging it.” “I’ll acknowledge it!” Scar pleas, “You are doing this for me, no?” “Okay,” Silco complies with her plea, smirking: “So you are saying, it’s YOU who wants to save Sebastian Knight, not me?”

This pull is strange, scary but amazing. The problem now is, how do I keep the most stubborn Vampire to ever exist safe without having a fight with her?
