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

But one day after bringing victory to his country once more, a call came through for him and he found out his parents had been killed and his sister was to be sold off at an auction.

A lot had happened within the five years he was away, his family had been destroyed by those who set him up, the Innocent had been wrongfully punished for spending the night with him, not to mention the death of his parents.

Chapter: Mom??? Is that you??? Among the first things that Elsie perceived on opening her eyes was the stillness. It is more of the silence that tells you nothing but rather that kind of silence that surrounds your mind and makes your thoughts louder in your head. She was sleeping at the console, one cheek austere against the cool side of the restored Echoheart core. The lights still flickered low, a slight red light was pulsing in rhythm. Threadlight activity.Gradually she roused. Her neck was paining through the awkward position but she did not notice it. There was a change of some kind.Nova! she said.No answer. It was vacant in the lab. There were still sketchpads and coils of wiring on Jayden workstation. The containment ring hummed away in the standby.Then she heard it very softly,--nay, scarcely a whisper. There was a childling voice.It is not over yet.Elsie turned in the direction. Isaac, sitting cross-legged by the edge of the core, had a pencil in his hand, and continuing to draw red thread symbols o

Chapter: The EdgeThe place of red threads was endless around Caspian. It glimmered but not with fire but with memory ribbons of soft light and sadness. His bare feet pass noiselessly over the glowing threads that swayed but inches above the floor. Step by step he seemed to hear a thing or two saying across his skin. He did not know whether it was fright or hope. Maybe both.He was yet a child.Small hands. Soft eyes. a heart which had been opened too prematurely.In this world, however, time never traveled as before. It snaked and twisted and caused him to feel old and young. How long he had been on his walk he did not know. It was days and nights. Perhaps it was years. Or it was only a few minutes.A change was beginning to come in the sky above.Here it was always red. Just the same color as the threads as though the world were painted in grief. But now far away he beheld it alter. A kind of radiant glow. Not red. Not yellow. Something else. Something gentle. A color that was weird on his chest.Blu

Chapter: AwakenedCaspian awakened.He did not in the first place know what he saw. Sky above him was red, but not that red of paint or fire, a deep red that showed you knew that something burned somewhere, like the embers that had not burned out. The floor, which was beneath him, was soft as though it were a blanket, but as he sat up and stared more carefully he could see that it was composed of fine glowing threads.Red threads.They extended in all directions twistings and loopings and moving smoothly, like breathing.He reached on one. It throbbed under his hand, not hot, but with a tender light. It recalled him of that. Of someone. And he did not know what. Or who.Caspian rose deliberately. He had no shoes and he only had a plain shirt and shorts on. He worked rather deep into the ground covered with threads upon which the feet sank a little, it did not hurt. Actually, the threads appeared friendly to him as they slurred lightly around his ankles saying to himself, You are home.This was not his

Chapter: Quiet Red SkyThey went down to the lower layers where light has not been seen during the past months.The doors were creaking metal and the air that came out was stale as burnt breath.There was darkness and red light inside. There were symbols of thread on the walls and they beat lightly like the veins under the skin.Isaac was not afraid to walk. His little hand went up and touched the wall and the symbols grew brighter.He has the direction of which he is going, said Nova to herself.Jayden dutifully trail followed him, light in hand.They went further beyond the destroyed labs, broken glass malays, and dead terminals.Then Isaac held.before them towered a half-burnt, half-alive machine. Wires came dangling down it like roots. At the core of the room something was burning.Jayden came nearer. This is a sub node. A storage cache of memory.”Nova nodded. It must have been crash proof.The two hands were on the machine.He shut his eyes.And whole the vault flared up, Nova glimpsed it in flights

Chapter: Threadless They stood in a dis-integrated adaptation of the Echoheart chamber. There were broken glass pods. In and out of shape flickered the walls. Static prepended with the air as did the mist.Of this network what remained.Elsie looked round and found Silva in the corner.Silva was wearing the same dress that made her die but appeared calm on her face. She smiled at Elsie, and said in a low voice, You aren t dreaming. This is a fact. You didn t give him all of yourself.”Said Elsie, I do not see it. How is all this left at all? Ava: said: the core burned, Nova: said: it is dead.”Silva nodded. The flesh is cut off. The thread has not gone away.”“Thread?”Ava put her arms against her body and came up on the same side of Silva. It was not that when Caspian made his decision to cut his connection, he would cut. He devoted himself to the network completely. It just could not contain him. But the bit which belonged to him, which had his feelings in it, it melded with the thread.”The thread? W

Chapter: Inference The sky gloomy in the morning was dull steel-colored. Low clouds tipped the compound in shade. Vans and drone news hovered in the boundaries, like their blinking lights were the vultures waiting over something already dead. It was tense inside that facility.Nova was sitting in the command center and was fiddling with the controls. The Echoheart Core had melted out inside and killed and yet the interest it had aroused was on the increase.Them--"they want it," she grimly murmured. She spoke with a tight voice. Everyone of them.Foreign government officials, proprietary technology companies and even humanitarian agencies were insisting to be allowed to oversee the wreckage. Everybody desired to witness what still existed of Olivia project. Nova denied them everything. So far.And she called to Jayden.In a few seconds he was here beside her. His eyes were aged more than yesterday. They had some dark shadows under their eyes, and his hair was out of order. yet scarcely had he slept sinc
