Novel & Cerita The Villianess Turns The Hourglass

One's hand was bent in a peculiar angle which indicated it had dislocated. Then Diana clutched the wrist of the two lackeys trying to hold her back, and with an intense squeeze,the sound of bones shattering split the air. In a blink of an eye,the two lackeys were already howling in an excruciating pain. How was a lady able to do all of that? Stone was extremely terrified. "How dare you make a move against my lackeys? You must wish to marry death.." Stone's expression darkened and he ordered "Kill him!"

I inquire, emphasizing each word. “As I previously informed you, you’ll know soon. Before that, I’m a guidebook for you as the villainess.” “Villainess?” "Yes, I'm going to serve you from now on. You can say that I’m a guidebook for a villainess like you since you're getting your vengeance once more. Furthermore, you are in this location for a reason. You need to locate the individual they call the shadow monster.”

And there, in the center of the destruction, was Lila. She was in a wedding dress, walking down the altar to meet blackthorn,who was laughing with joy. I stumbled, the image burning into my mind. Blackthorn’s cruel laughter echoed around me “This is your future, Alex,” he whispered. “No matter how hard you try,you’ll always fail. She’ll always be mine” I roared, shattering the illusion with a burst of solar energy. The darkness peeled away, and I found myself back in the facility, my heart pounding in my chest.

I straightened up with determination, and focus like someone on a deadly mission. It took us some time to get ready as Kylie insisted that I change my attire because I would be meeting Theo's ex-fiancee. It was already evening before we got to the magnificent Villa. I wouldn't pretend not to be intimidated, but I had to do this anyway. Escorted by Kylie whose presence didn't make the countless guards question us, we arrived at the luxuriously decorated Grand garden behind the building. All attention focused on us as we walked towards them, "Raise your head, bitch" Kylie encouraged.

They moved like a single body, no fear—only fire in their eyes. --- One Hour Later… Inside the gilded blackstone palace of the Crimson Circle, Lila lounged in her private chamber, adorned in red silks and surrounded by incense and shadows. When her servants hurried into the chamber, carrying the sealed box, her lips curled into a smug grin. “At last,” she purred, “Zara has brought me that mutt Ella’s head.” She motioned for her servants to place the box before her. The room went still. She lifted the lid—slowly, seductively—expecting triumph.

Vivienne slid to the floor like a heap of rags, clutching her throat and gasping for air. Miles fell to his knees, his hands trembling as he reached for the box, yet he didn't dare to touch it. For a liar who poured the cure down a drain, he had killed the woman who had loved him for seven hundred years.

When Adrian and Lila were ushered into the Vance foyer, the air seemed to crystallize. Arthur and Eleanor stood frozen, their mouths agape as they tracked the transformation of the daughter they had discarded like yesterday's trash. Lila looked nothing like the broken girl who had fled the altar. The emerald silk of her gown hugged her curves with predatory elegance, while the dazzle of the diamond necklace at her throat was rivaled only by the massive stone currently weighing down her ring finger.

They had assumed she was exiled—or simply too ashamed to show her face among the glittering rivals. Cassandra, already seated inside her serpent-carriage, leaned out the window with a thin smile. “Well, look who crawled home. Did you get lost on the road to obscurity?” Velarissa’s red eyes gleamed from behind her lace veil. “A lamb among wolves. Delicious.” Nymira’s floral gown fluttered as she laughed, airy and cruel. “Someone forgot to weed the garden; an unwanted bloom has popped up.” Kaelith—bronze-armored and towering—snorted a jet of smoke. “This is a competition, not a charity ward. Go back to whatever hovel you slunk from.”

] I felt a jolt of nausea as his mental gaze shifted toward me. [And then, Vanessa. Once your 'hero' is a cooling corpse, I will break your spirit and mark you right here on this floor. I’ll bind your soul so tightly to mine that you’ll forget you ever belonged to another. You are the crown jewel of this conquest.] [They think they’re so smart,] Lily hissed internally, her eyes darting to the High Council members seated nearby. [Matthew thinks he’s poisoning a few rivals. He doesn't realize I’ve laced the entire kitchen’s water supply with hemlock and silver dust. Every guard, every servant, every Alpha in this room will be vomiting blood by midnight. The rogue pack is waiting at the treelin

She leaned her curvy body back against the sofa, allowing her chubby fingers to tap rhythmically against the edge of the marble table. "You Vance people are truly fools..." Vivienne hissed, her voice low, heavy, and filled with the arrogance of a queen who had successfully hacked into the heart of her enemy's command center. "You thought you could imprison me and treat this curvy body like a disgusting object to be passed around on Sunday? Instead, I used Tristan's stupidity and obsessive madness to unlock the door to your golden cage, then walked out carrying away all your wealth." Benita sat down beside Vivienne, her beautiful face hardening with a serious expression. "So what's our next m
