The footage showed the Maroon Mansion on fire. Joseph's attention was immediately drawn to it. This was one of Cora's properties, operating as an exclusive private club.

Otherwise, you’re gonna brood yourself into an early grave and trust me, no one wants to explain that cause of death at your funeral.” I pitched my voice dramatic: “Here lies Steel, survived bullets, blades, and betrayal… but couldn’t survive a dry spell.” Steel groaned, dragging a hand down his face. “You’re enjoying this too much.” “Little bit, yeah.” I grinned, dropping into the chair across from him. “So, what’s the plan? Cold showers? Meditation? Or are you just gonna glower at the ceiling for three months and hope your self-control doesn’t snap?” He ignored me, which was as good as admitting he di

Giveon ~ let me go✨✨ Max leaves the room, I stay at the balcony enjoying the view and cold breeze. Andrei comes to meet me with a glass full of cognac. I nod at him as I take it from him. The substance burns deep in my throat, the moment it hits. It has been my only friend since she left. Just a few shots and I enter my world of oblivion but I can't afford to do that here.

“But you also have to learn how to smile. I never seen you smiling even once.” “There is no reason for me to smile,” she told him what she truly feels. “I will give you a reason, then. Just wait after the party. I will tell you something that will make you smile.” He said as he left the wardrobe. “What is it, my lord? Are you going to free me?” Lucas looked back at her as he stepped out of the door. “It’s something like that,” he said and smirked. “So, learn to smile, Camila. Or should I force you to smile?”

❦ Rosalind ❦ At first, the smoke was so thick I couldn’t see. My throat burned with every inhale. Then, the unmistakable sound of a mag snapping into place filled the space. Something rolled across the floor toward me, clattering to a stop. “Viktor?” My voice barely rose above a whisper. “Rosa! Get down!” The explosion ripped the ground apart.

He had been in Glorious Sun for a long time, so he naturally understood Burning Beard very clearly.

It was such a place for demons and night creatures, a place where they came to unwind and sort of relax but then there was almost nothing relaxing about Smokes.
