Hearing that Stephanie doesn't want to go back to Roman ignites a fire inside of Anthony Petrov. It's like he has declared a state of emergency, and he has ordered the entirety of his security team to come and extract him and Stephanie from the northern province. From there on, he makes sure that hundreds of guards are outside his walls, to make sure that the vicious dragon general doesn't break in to angrily take back his wife. When the members of his cabinet, the other ministers, and his team hear about his plot to keep the dragon general's wife, they immediately jump into panic. They can't allow this to happen! They can't offend the dragon general by holding his wife hostage in their country! So, even though they fear their president more than anything in the world, they immediately make a plan to save their heads. In their large number, there are over a hundred of them,they wear black to show that they are in a mournful state, then they pay the Professor a visit in his res

Anthony's jaw drops to the ground. "You will marry me, Stephanie?" She shrugs with a small chuckle. "Are you unsure?" "You know that's not true. You marrying me would be the best thing that has ever happened to me in my life." "Good," she smiles. "Because I want us to get married in the next five days!" *******Even though everything is just unconfirmed rumors for everyone else in the country, it gets compounded when they finally hear that an official marriage might be happening. Anthony Petrov is a very strict man and he has done many cold hearted things, but marrying Stephanie makes him very nervous. No woman has never made him feel this way at all, and he wants to make sure that he doesn't fuck this up...Flowers? Only the best, imported from overseas. Her dress? It has already been sorted out. The celebrity designer is going to be flown into the country in three days! As for the divorce, Stephanie has asked Anthony to leave it to her. She will get Roman to give in, she i

"Oh no, no, Lilith, you've got this wrong. I'm not that kind of person," Stephanie immediately defends herself. "I'm not like Anthony, I would never hurt you like him." "You just told me that you are going to marry him!" Lilith snaps at her. "I dare say that only a sicker person would make that decision knowing fully the kind of demonic person that he is!" Stephanie holds on the bars and looks at her with true desperation. "Please, I can't give you too much information, for your own safety, but you must believe me when I say that I am going to help you. Do you know how to handle a gun?" "A gun?" Lilith smirks incredulously. "You can as well ask me if I have seen a bloody dinosaur before!" "Lilith, this is a time to be serious, I'm trying to help you." Stephanie begs, but the girl's mind has been made up. She turns away from Stephanie and won't even look at her again. "You want to help me? Find a way and kill me already. I'm so tired of living." Stephanie bites down on her lips,

Its not easy, but Lilith finally knows what is expected from her. Her father can tolerate her for just so long before he tells Stephanie that she will be moving to the servants' quarters. The servants has been very surprised with the odd addition to the President's household, but they know asking too much questions would get them into trouble. But a few days later, when the girl is taken into their quarters and given her own tiny room, she has an introductory tale for them. She is an orphan that was found by the kind President, and now he has informally adopted her. Yet, she must work as a servant in the house, as a personal maid for the President's new fiancee, that's how she is expected to earn her bread around here.There is a rumor about the 'fight' at the dining table from the night she appeared, but no one dares to mention it ever again...The wedding plans are going fine and now, Anthony goes on his official dealings as president. As much as he would want to stay at home

Stephanie and Carmen are forced to make Lilith sit down and recount the claim she have just made, but she doesn't change her words. "I know everything about my father," Lilith says. "Morgan knew a lot too, but he died, so I'm the only one now. Every one of his secrets, I know them by heart." "That's not possible, Lilith, I mean, even if your brain is the size of a supercomputer," Stephanie chuckles. Lilith sighs, "Don't you realize that's why he kept me locked up for so long? Out there, I would have been the cause of his downfall. I'm surprised that he didn't lock me up before leaving. Maybe it's because he was somehow dumb to trust you so much..." Carmen immediately takes out a piece of paper and a pen, then he slaps it in front of Lilith. "You claim so much, and we will need proof. Give us something, else we cannot believe this claim of yours." Lilith exhales through her mouth and immediately grabs the pencil and paper. Instead of writing just anything, she writes three dif
