Chapter: You Want Him to Take Revenge After Nicholas had finally succeeded in “humiliating me and doing exactly what he wanted.” Davios could not even do anything. All those things “pissed me off so badly.” But I could not say a word and instead just pretended and kept silent. Of course, I cannot say a word yet because I have no right. “Again.” He literally stripped me of all my rights right there in my presence. I cannot even say anything or even do anything. Even when I tried to talk to him, the council members immediately signaled for me to sit down. “Want to be in the Mansion and if I still want to be respected, I had no choice but accept what he wants.” I felt so angry. I felt like I was about to run mad. This was not how I planned it, but definitely, I know that one thing. “I’d actually succeeded.” Darius had finally made everything so obvious to me. He had finally made everything work perfectly for me. Because I know that he looked very angry and vengeful the last time we were having a discussion. “And I know he'

Chapter: No Emotions Watching them all argue together, I couldn't help but feel so sad and heartbroken. I never wanted it to turn out like this. I never wanted Darius and Nicholas to end up fighting each other no matter what, because I just wanted them to be at peace with each other. But none of that was happening. I just had to sit there like a stone and watch them argue and hate each other. And I know that this was all the plan of Nora. It was more than obvious that Nora was the one doing all this. I could see it in the way she smiled when she looked at me. It was like she was signaling me that her plans were working out just the way she wanted it to. And I could not do anything about it. Even Darius looked at me with pity. But I was not able to even make a move because I don't want to offend Nicholas in any way. And the only way to be on his good side is by silently sitting down there and watching. “Give me that position. I did not want that position no matter what.” It was soon time for the counci

Chapter: Standing Up Against HimStanding up against Nicholas. I know it was a really bad thing now, something I'm not supposed to do. But I know that I have to do it because I have to at least show it to my mother that I'm ready to protect her and I'm ready to stand by her. But if I am not able to stand up for her, then she would continue to see me as somebody who is weak for my brother. And I am really not like that. I turn my attention back to Nicholas and make sure that my frown was deep enough for him to realize that I was really angry with him. “You cannot just take away my mother's position like that. I know that that's what she wanted to do since everyone was whispering about it, everyone was literally talking about it. Even the males were already pointing it out that you don't want my mother to be the Leader anymore. And I would not just accept that. At least think of it. Laura is not even ready to become a Leader. If you ask her a million times, she doesn't want it,” I said to Nicholas, hoping he would li

Chapter: No Improvement Once the meeting was already about to commence, I couldn't help but anticipate waiting for Nicholas to make that one mistake that will make Darius finally side with me. And he did it. He cleared his throat and stood up from the Position as everyone bowed to him. He looked so angry, but his gaze was still on Laura. As his gaze on Laura seemed a bit softened, I knew that something was definitely about to happen. I could not wait. Despite the fact that I was going to lose my Leader position anytime soon, I still could not wait and was anticipating what he was going to do to me. How he was going to betray his brother by taking away the one thing that makes me a royal in this Mansion. I stood. I sat down and watched as he began his speech. “Thank you everyone for showing up here. I am really grateful that you guys came here at this time and the fact that you guys have been patient with me enough despite the fact that I never wanted to have another Partner because of what have always happ

Chapter: Your Poor LifeLaura was not "rejecting it because she liked being poor." She was "rejecting me because she was slowly losing feelings for me." This was clearly all Darius's fault. It made me so angry that I rolled my hand into a fist, hiding it behind me so she would not see it and think maybe I am angry at her thinking about everything. I felt so angry at Darius I just wanted to crush his head into pieces. But I can't do that. Instead, I'm going to get to Leader Nora. I would make sure that Nora lets go of that position as the Leader. She's going to give it to Laura no matter what. There is nothing Laura will tell me. I guess for me to do this and for my plan to work out, I don't need to tell Laura anymore. Instead, I just need to put it into action. I looked at Laura with a smile and placed my hand on her shoulder. "You don't have to worry, Laura. I won't stress you too much anymore and I won't bother you. I see that you don't want it and I don't plan on forcing it on you. I don't want to force

Chapter: Not Able to HelpI don't know why, but no matter what I do, Laura "does always find a way to annoy me." She "always looks for a way to piss me off." She "always does things that would make me want to yell at her, want to yell at her angrily." And now I don't know what to do. I feel so frustrated. I can't believe I am clearly giving her a higher position and she's dragging with me that she "does not want to take that position and wants to go back to the slave quarters." I know I wasn't supposed to yell at her the way I did, but I don't have a choice. She just makes me so angry and so frustrated these few days that I don't know what to do. I watched her being harassed by Leader Nora, unable to control myself. Now I am taking away Leader Nora's position and giving it to her, yet she is pissing me off this way. I know how many ladies "would die for that position I am giving to her that she keeps rejecting." I know how many ladies "would want everything I am giving to her, but yet she's still doing this t

Chapter: God Of WarIt was stifling night. Thick clouds passed slowly over the moon throwing creepy shadows in the deserted harbor. The wind was moaning among metal containers, rusted, and rickety fences. An ideal location of a secret prison. Jayden was on a metal rooftop and was wearing a full black outfit. He was covered with ash and dirt on the face, and his eyes were straight. He was no longer fugitive. He was a father and awakened soldier.Nova, Georgina and two of his best operatives hid in the vicinity with him. The old harbor-house lay like a sleeping monster below. A couple of windows were blinking with the lights and armed guards pacing circumspectively around.Jayden murmured, They will have him under ground. Viper would not take that chance by keeping Caspian anywhere close to the surface.”Georgina nodded. we go by the program. Noiselessly. Out. In case of everything wrong…Jayden said coolly, I will.They acted as shadows.Jayden crossed the path, climbing over fences through small cracks a

Chapter: Family Under FireThe air of the morning was pregnant with silence, that silence which augers great mischief. Jayden had a thick hoodie on top of a low cap covering his eyes, and one could not miss him in the bus station. He was not a driver. Too risky. By bugging his car then they could find him anywhere. To-day his most powerful weapon was stealth.Just as he passed the gates of the school of Caspian the school bell rung. Parents were talking, children were running around having fun, though Jayden was looking through the crowd, frenziedly. He experienced chest pains. Caspian was not visible.He went to the gate and waved a teacher."Pardon me! said he, quietly. Jayden Cross. My son is Caspian Cross and he is in Grade 2. Did he call up today?”The teacher scowled in order to look at the clipboard that was hanging on her hand.I am be sorry, Mr. Jayden... Caspian is absent to-day. Are you okay?”A lump formed in Jayden throat. With a constrained smile he nodded. Probably, only that. I shall call up at

Chapter: Warmth SurprisesJayden stood at the cliff's edge long after Rhea had gone. Ocean wind chilled his skin, but he barely noticed it. His mind stayed in the heat of Elsie's kiss, the tremble of her fingers across his cheek, the look in her eyes when he had turned to walk away. Guilt stuck to him like an inescapable drumbeat inside of his chest. He didn't like having to leave again. But staying? That was even more dangerous.He ran his black hair through his fingers and breathed slowly. There was always someone waiting. Always someone who would pursue him for shortcomings he had not even made. He could never quite catch his breath and think that the past was not behind him, closing in with every step.He climbed into his car, the motor coming to life in the quiet of the early morning. The road curled like a snake across the hills. Driving, he couldn't help but see the face of Caspian in his mind. The boy's questioning eyes, the ring of his laughter at seeing Jayden, and that

Chapter: Shadows That FollowJayden had not moved for what felt like hours.Wind teased at the bottom of his jacket and battled his hair, but he did not move on the crumbly stone steps, his eyes staring blankly into nothing. His mind was anything but quiet. It churned like the ocean in a storm, each waves crashing another memory, another jolt of remorse.He could still feel the shape of Elsie in his arms. The faint trace of her scent lingered on his chest lavender and saltwater, like summer from a lifetime ago. The kiss had been unplanned. Gentle, filled with all the words he couldn’t say. And now it haunted him.“I’m not ready,” he whispered to himself, dragging a hand through his hair. “Not yet.”Behind him, the door creaked open. A soft footstep followed deliberate, hesitant. Jayden didn’t turn around. He didn’t need to.“You’ve always done this,” Rhea’s voice floated down, light as smoke. “Run toward the flame, then away from the ashes.”He let out a slow breath. “You were listening.”"I always do," she answe

Chapter: Loving in Hiding He sat down on the steps which were worn and old, as the sky danced with pink and purple colors. Leaves shuffled and whispered across each other as a breeze moved along the trees and carried secrets he could not discern. With his elbows propped up by his knees, he hung his hands limp as he stared ahead, working hard to forget how Elsie stared right through him.She was back in his life again. And it all comes after such a long and silent period. It turned out that things happened differently than he’d hoped. He saw that the girl he was comfortable with, the energetic she-wolf who had always been by his side in summer, had become someone different now. Hardened. Guarded. Just like a person whose body has been repaired again and again.He shut his eyes and felt a cool breeze touching his skin. He could remember her voice which was always sharp and full of worry. His memory of it still shows her hands shaking softly when she claimed she was not attached to him. Because the war was on the

Chapter: The Wedding Day 11111Elsie carefully chose a simple yet filling dish to warm up their bodies and spirits during breakfast. The house smelled of sizzling eggs and toast and the noise of the waves was a gentle background. The fresh morning light made her face appear golden while she carefully did the things needed in the kitchen. While playing football on the beach, Jayden and Caspian were having fun and their joy could be heard in the sound of ocean breezes.After Elsie finished everything and sat the table, she went outside and the wind blew her robe along. She covered her eyes with her hand and spoke to them in a cozy and affectionate way. The meal is done and ready to serve.Jayden looked at Caspian and smiled in reply. Come on, my dear! Shall we have something to eat?They ran back home, feeling the sand between their toes and entered the kitchen full of laughs. They all sat around the table for a family-like meal. The chance to relax while eating together was what made the evening so wonderful
