Chapter 151
That evening, Melody Lee stepped across the marble floor of the family penthouse, with the city lights glittering from just right beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows that stood right on the walls of the house.She did not think she would not be questioned by anyone, but she did not expect anyone to be around waiting for her either way. The first person she saw was her mother, Eleanor Lee, standing at the grand staircase, wearing a silk robe, with her arms folded like she had been waiting there hours on end.Melody tried to ignore the woman, acting as though she had not seen her at all. “I know what you’re up to,” her mother finally said quietly.Melody didn’t flinch as she heard the cold words. She had practiced this moment in the car the whole entire ride back home from Nathan's house. “I have no choice, Mother." She sighed, shutting her eyes in a moment of resignation. "I cannot afford to be poor. No, not in this life, but certainly not in another.”Eleanor’s eyes softened, but on

A few days ago, Michael found himself in the height of dispair. He was in a club, with bass thumping through the VIP lounge of the place like a second heartbeat. Neon lights from moving bulbs in the roof bled across the black marble tables, and the air smelled of expensive whiskey and desperation. This was Club Eclipse. It was one of the most exclusive high end underground clubs in the city.Michael Lee slumped in a leather booth with a glass in hand. It was the fourth—or was it the fifth?—drink burning its way down his throat that night. His two-thousand-dollar shirt was unbuttoned at the collar, and the usual arrogant smirk had long since slipped into something raw and ugly.Jason, a friend of his sat across from him, his blond bangs falling over his sharp blue eyes, nursing a single neat scotch. Max and Jones flanked Michael, both already grinning like sharks that had smelled blood in the water.“I’m telling you,” Michael slurred, slamming the glass down on the table, with not a

A black SUV rolled to a stop in a narrow alley just two blocks from Club Eclipse. It was a very suspicious and looking place, the kind of place one would imagine demons crawled out from. The streetlights here were broken or missing, and the only glow in the place came from a single flickering bulb resting just above a rusted steel door. Jason killed the engine of the car, its roar stopping right there. “Remember what we said," he said, turning to Michael. "Don’t speak. Don’t look at anyone, either. Just keep your head down.”Michael’s head was still spinning from the whiskey from the club before, but the warning cut through the fog in his mind. “Where the hell are we?” he managed to ask. Max opened the door and gave him a shove. "Just go outside, now."The moment Michael hopped out of the vehicle, the smell of the place hit him right in his nostrils. It was the smell of chemical, acrid, like burning plastic and bleach. His stomach lurched, almost twisting inside out. This wasn’t som

Michael’s legs felt like it was made from water as he followed the others down the narrow hallway, shaking in spite of himself. The deeper they went, the thicker the air became, Choking with chemical, and a sweet-rot smell that burned the back of his throat and made his eyes drip with water. Every breath to him smelled and tasted like plastic and bleach, as his hands shook at his sides. Hee tried to hide it by shoving them into his pockets. But the tremor was obvious to everybody around him. “Stop being a chicken, Michael” Jones muttered behind him, his voice low but not less sharp as he jammed lightly at Michael's back.Caesar laughed without turning around at first. Then he did, glancing back over his scarred shoulder. The jagged line running down his face caught the dim light from the overhead bulb up above their heads, and made the prosthetic arm gleamer. Michael flinched at the sight of this.“You ever done this before, rich boy?” Caesar asked with a voice rough like gravel.M

Melody Lee’s eyes snapped open at exactly 2:17 a.m. The glowing numbers on her nightstand were the only source of light in the dark room.Her heart was already pounding with much purpose. Tonight was the night she had planned for. She had waited long enough for this and she wouldn't let it slide away from her. She slipped out of bed, her bare feet silent on the marble floor as she was nearly tip-toeing about, and moved through the penthouse like a shadow. In the kitchen she filled two porcelain cups with fresh coffee, with steam curling upward into the air. One cup was left untouched, while the other she was stirring with a single measured spoonful of a sedative she had taken from the medicine cabinet earlier. It was one enough to make her father drowsy and compliant, not enough to raise alarms when he woke up.She ran the plan through her mind one final time as she tiptoed. She was going to walk into the study casually, and hand him a drugged cup of coffee, and talk about anything

The sun was just beginning to rise from the horizon when Nathan’s phone vibrated on the nightstand, pulling him from his slumber. The penthouse was still dark inside, as the lights were switched off before they went to sleepThe city skyline outside the floor-to-ceiling windows was just beginning to blush with paint of dawn. Melody was sleepover right beside him. He glanced at the screen. The caller was none other than Melody Lee. Nathan answered on the second ring of the phone."Hello," Nathan greeted.“I got the certificates,” Melody said without greeting. Her voice was tight, breathless, the words tumbling out, overwhelming Nathan before he could even respond. “We need to do this quickly, now. Everything is getting bad faster than I thought. My father is already talking about selling the last downtown properties just to make payroll. I really need to do this quickly."Nathan sat up, noting the raw urgency in Melody's tone. “Slow down. You're speaking so fast. Come to the Cloven T

The next morning the boardroom on the fifty-eighth floor of the Cloven Tower felt smaller than it usually was as sunlight poured through the glass walls. The air was thick with a kind of tension that seemed to had frozen even the air around them.Victor Lee sat at the head of the long mahogany table, flanked by his wife Eleanor who had a blank expression on her face, and a handful of other stone-faced executives, all of whom gathered around the couples like flies. Only Melody stood a little apart, with her arms crossed, and her chin high as always. Her hair was pulled back in a bun, making her look extremely like her bother Michael, who coincidentally had only empty chair in the hall. He was no where to be found, and no one mentioned it. Through varied interpretations, it would be easy to think that Melody had replaced him as the man of the House.Nathan Rhodes entered last with David Brune. He took a sit right opposite the Less, while David Brune sat exactly at his side. He wore a

The hallway outside the business wing of ESU was filled up with whisperes from the students all clustered in various groups, as they stood with their phones out, and their voices low but with that same excitement that characterized gossiping students, especially with the recent news that was pervading across all walls of the school and beyond. “Did you see? The Lees folded. Cloven owns everything now," one student said with an electrifying tone to his voice. It almost seemed like the news was the best thing ever. "Those damn Lees would surely have their tails under their legs in school, wouldn't they?" “The Pauper King just swallowed another empire," another student said to his own group. "That Nathan is not slowing down isn't it? He is like a moving train, you better get off the way or get knocked into a sea of sharks. Loan sharks. Get it?" He laughed. His other friends thought he was being corny, yet laughed as well.Meanwhile, Melody kept her head high and her pace steady as alwa

In a penthouse overlooking Central Park in all its beauty, one was supposed to feel like they had just won something glorious, something ever lasting, a victory like no other. Instead, Amelia Frank paced over the marble floor like she was a caged animal in heat, while the seven beautiful vixens lounged on the cream sofas that were across the living room of the penthouse. Donna, Avery, Gene, Golden, Bella, Rene, and Chloe watched her with a mixture of amusement and boredom, they lips looking like they were they were just a little push away from laughing disastrously.They had grown closer in the last weeks with Amelia, bonded by a single thread that still held them together: every one of them still felt that they had been betrayed in some way by Nathan.“I still can’t believe it,” Amelia spat, voice sharp enough to cut the glass that framed the high floor to ceiling windows. “The one person that I thought would never break, the one person who I thought hated Nathan the most, just han

The trap house felt strangely smaller tonight to Michael. The air was thicker, and heavier. Above them fluorescent bulbs buzzed with insects if varied shape and sizes flying close to it, and some of them even dying from going too close, as the lights casted harsh shadows across the stained concrete walls. The chemical stench was still in the air. An acrid smell of burnt plastic, bleach and a ton of other things too numerous to mention, clung to every breath Michael Lee took in, burning the Inside of his nose. He was still not used to this life. His palms were slick with sweat as he stood at the round table, staring at a burner phone Caesar had just slid across the scarred wood.Caesar leaned back in his chair, with his prosthetic arm glinting under the light from the flouroscent bulb. The scar on his face twisted when he smiled. “Listen carefully, Michael and all of you. From here on, there’s no going back. Once the money moves from you, you’re blood in. There are no refunds, and e
