Realizing Logan was useless, Luna’s voice quivered as she turned to the only one left who might help. “Mr. Grant… please…”Dorian clenched his fists, then took a steadying breath. He stepped forward and addressed the room with as much composure as he could muster.“Mr. Harker. Mr. Pitt. With all due respect, let’s not involve the women in this. As the heir of the Grant family, I’m asking for a bit of restraint… and decency.”Ace leaned back in his seat, a faint smirk curving his lips. “Respect for the Grant family?” he echoed lazily. “Of course.”Dorian’s shoulders relaxed slightly. “Thank you, Mr. Harker—”“But,” Ace cut in sharply, his voice turning cold. “You can leave. The women stay.”The room fell deathly silent.Ace’s eyes swept over the group like a predator selecting his prey. “I’ll keep the three—Luna, Bella, and her.”He nodded toward Elise.Luna and Bella froze in terror. Elise, wide-eyed, took a half-step back. Her heart pounded violently in her chest.Ace’s gaze lingered

Adam shook his head with a faint, bitter smile but followed along, his steps steady and quiet as the group headed toward the Celestial Room.Inside, the lavish chamber glowed under a crystal chandelier. Gold-trimmed furniture, velvet upholstery, and an atmosphere thick with expensive cigar smoke painted a scene of careless wealth.Dorian lounged confidently, sipping from a glass of aged scotch, still oblivious to the storm barreling his way. The moment he spotted the man leading the approaching group, his demeanor shifted.He stepped forward. "I’m Dorian, eldest son of the Grant family. What exactly do you plan to do with my friend?"The man before him gave a cold, crooked smile."The Grant family? That name means little to me."Dorian's brows furrowed. He was about to snap back when his gaze landed on the woman clinging to the man’s side—Chloe.Everyone knew who she was—Ace Harker’s mistress.His voice caught in his throat. "You... you’re Mr. Harker?"The man chuckled darkly. "At lea

The atmosphere inside the Emperor Room shifted instantly.The once-lively energy dulled under the weight of Daniel Pitt’s bloodied face and explosive entrance. The tension thickened like smoke.“Mr. Pitt—what happened?” Chloe rose to her feet, her voice crisp with alarm, eyes darting to his bruised cheek and disheveled shirt.Daniel Pitt—infamous for his ruthless business ventures and dirty billions—looked like a man who’d just swallowed humiliation and broken glass.He threw his jacket to the floor, chest heaving. “I stepped out for a piss and spotted a pretty girl outside the restroom. Figured she was one of those high-end hostesses, so I made an offer. The little wench slapped me across the face and called some punk over—he beat the hell out of me!” He jabbed a finger at his swollen lip. “Look at this! Do I look like a damn joke?”Ace Harker’s smile was ice. He leaned forward, resting one elbow on his knee. “Don’t worry, Mr. Pitt. You’ll get your justice. Whoever laid a hand on you

Logan scoffed as he watched the portly man disappear down the corridor, limping.“Nobody,” he muttered under his breath. “Clowns like him don’t even deserve a second glance.”In Dawnhaven, power was everything—and Logan came from enough of it to know who was who. The man wasn’t a familiar face. No ties to the elite. No presence in the inner circles. Just another loud drunk in the wrong place.But when he returned to their private room, all the laughter died instantly.“Luna, what happened to your face?” someone gasped.Her cheek was visibly swollen, a red print standing out against her pale skin.“Don’t ask,” Luna growled, furious. “Some drunk idiot thought I was one of the club girls and tried to put his hands on me.”Adam’s lips twitched. He couldn’t help it. Luna’s outfit—tight leather shorts, a plunging neckline, and ten-inch heels—didn’t exactly scream ‘guest.’“What the hell are you smirking at, you hillbilly?” she snapped, catching the look.“My bad,” Adam said calmly, offering

“Elise, it’s getting late,” Adam said calmly, standing up and moving toward her. “Let’s head back.”His tone was gentle but firm. Something felt wrong—the air was off. The atmosphere in the room was turning darker with every drink poured, every laugh forced.Elise blinked at him, visibly tipsy. Her delicate features were flushed, her eyes glossy from the alcohol. She hesitated, swaying slightly as she glanced between Adam and her so-called friends.Then came Luna’s voice, sharp as glass. “Are you serious right now? We’re in the middle of having fun, and you decide to be the party pooper?”Her mockery sliced through the room, drawing a few snickers from others.Dorian leaned forward on the couch, resting one arm on his knee, a smug smile playing on his lips. “You really think Elise is your fiancée?” he sneered, swirling the whiskey in his glass. “Let me make it crystal clear—Elise is my woman. Not yours. If you ever even breathe in her direction again, I’ll make sure your life turns in

The moment Adam stepped through the café door, all conversation seemed to halt, as if the air had been vacuumed from the room.Luna Green was the first to speak. Her eyes swept over Adam from head to toe, stopping pointedly at the creases in his jeans and the scuffed soles of his shoes. His entire outfit looked like it couldn’t fetch more than two hundred dollars, maybe less.She let out a scoff, her voice dripping with contempt.“So, it’s you? The guy hoping to marry our Elise?” She laughed as if she’d just heard the punchline to a joke. “Seriously, Elise? He looks like he wandered in off the street.”Elise’s expression tightened, but she didn’t speak.Logan Mason, Dorian’s ever-faithful sidekick, leaned back in his chair with a mocking grin.“Tad, you must be lost. Elise Carter is high society. She’s a phoenix; you’re not even a feather on a chicken. Guys like you shouldn’t be within five feet of her. Consider this a warning—stay in your lane, or things might get... uncomfortable.”
