Natalie screamed as her body hit the ground hard, sending up a cloud of dust. Her hair fell wildly across her face, and her eyes filled with pain and despair."Daniel, how could you do this to me?!" she cried, her voice choked with sobs and anger.Daniel ignored her, trying to enter the room, but Natalie clung desperately to his legs."I won't let you hurt my mother and brother, not today!" she said, tightening her grip, her fingernails digging into his pants."Daniel, please, spare them!" she pleaded, her body trembling slightly, but her hold on his legs unwavering.Daniel's expression was cold. He pushed her slightly, sending Natalie flying.She tumbled like a withered leaf, crashing against the wall before falling to the floor.Oof! She coughed up blood, her face turning pale, but she struggled to get up, determined to stop him again.Daniel glanced coldly at her and strode into the room.Just as he entered, Grace emerged."Daniel

"I bought a lot of food. Everyone must be hungry, right? I'll go cook! It's not often we all get together like this, so let's have a drink!" Shirley said cheerfully as she carried the groceries into the kitchen."Shirley, let me help you!" Chloe called out, following her into the kitchen.Rose wanted to lend a hand too, but Daniel hadn't finished yet, and she felt the urgency. Her mouth was going to be numb.Finally, the three women settled down at the table, with Daniel sitting opposite them. They shared dinner in a charged atmosphere, the air thick with unspoken tension.After dinner, Rose quickly excused herself. She feared that if she continued interacting with Daniel, she might lose her innocence. She thought that giving Daniel oral sex and cleaning herself afterward wouldn't leave a trace, but sleeping with him would be a different story entirely.Chloe leaned over and kissed Daniel on the cheek before leaving, which left Shirley alone with him."

The entire Hale family had been plunged into a bloody nightmare; corpses and despair lay scattered everywhere.As the last member of the Hale family fell, Daniel stood amid the carnage, his eyes devoid of emotion.Flames devoured the Hale family estate as he turned and walked away; this was the price of crossing him.From the shadows, Peter and Patricia watched in terror, realizing that Daniel had killed so many with the same ease one might use to slaughter chickens.After Daniel's departure, an elderly man appeared at the Hale family estate.This was Wesley Hale, Jaxon's father and the former head of the Hale family, who had lived apart from the world due to his dedication to martial arts."Who wiped out my family?!" Wesley roared, his voice thick with grief and disbelief.He surveyed the blood-soaked ground, his eyes bloodshot and his hands trembling with rage."What have they done to deserve such a massacre?!" His voice echoed through the c

Daniel and Rose returned home. After Rose parked her motorcycle, she glanced at Daniel anxiously before quickly speeding off.She and Natalie were best friends, and she didn't want to get caught in the middle if Daniel did something to Natalie. It was better to leave.Just as Rose drove away, Natalie's red sports car screeched to a halt in front of the house, the tires squealing in protest, mirroring her frantic state.Click-clack-click! Natalie's high heels echoed as she rushed toward Daniel, her breath coming in short gasps, her chest heaving."Where's my brother?" Natalie's voice was tight with anxiety and fury, practically spat out. Her eyes were fixed on Daniel like daggers as if she wanted to stab him.Daniel lounged on the couch with his arms crossed, showing no sign of alarm. "Don't rush," he teased, a smirk playing on his lips, almost taunting her.Natalie stepped closer, her heels clicking sharply on the floor. "Daniel, cut the crap. Where's m

Just then, Daniel received a text message about Edward.After reading it, he sneered, his laughter filled with mockery and disdain. 'So that's it. Edward is a Blood Angel. His target isn't Natalie; it's me. Interesting. Let's play.'Edward elegantly raised his exquisite wine glass, lightly clinking it against Natalie's. A hint of suspicion and displeasure flickered in his eyes. "Natalie, aren't you divorced from Daniel? Why are you with him?""I thought you were completely out of his life. I can't believe he's here. Natalie, what's going on?" Edward gently swirled the wine in his glass. The crimson liquid shimmered alluringly in the light.Natalie's hand trembled slightly as she held her glass, a flicker of embarrassment and hesitation crossing her face."It... it's an accident," she stammered, unable to meet Edward's gaze. "I didn't expect him to follow me."Edward took a sip of wine, set down his glass, and leaned forward. "Natalie, you know I can hel
