“Who dares to cause trouble in my territory?”

Yvonne Hall's voice boomed as her bodyguards encircled the auditorium, holding their rifles close to their chests.

Luther's lips parted in surprise when he saw Yvonne.

“Yvonne’s the richest person in New York. Did my lie about us being close just manifest into reality?” he snickered.

“If she's here to greet me, I must take advantage of this,” Luther thought to himself.

With a smile and egoistic chuckle escaping his lips, Luther took steady steps towards Yvonne, stretching his hands as if to give her a hug.

The guests who immediately recognized Yvonne murmured amongst themselves,

"I didn't really expect Luther to have such a relationship with Yvonne..."

"Yeah! I know right? Luther is simply amazing. He keeps surprising us!"

When Sera heard the whispers, she beamed with pride while Luther approached Yvonne.

“My daughter's really marrying a capable man!” Sera thought to herself, smiling even wider as Jim snug close to he

    187. The rain was falling like angry needles from the sky. Amanda was crouched behind a pile of cracked cement blocks and broken steel pipes, barely breathing as she peeked toward the old glass plant. She’d followed Viktor here earlier, against her better judgment, and now she was beginning to regret it. Far in the distance, she had see them. Cars, so many of them approaching, and they looked quite dangerous, to say in the least. There were four of them, matte black, and no headlights on. They looked like ghosts in the rain as they came to a stop. Then the doors opened, and armed men got out, looking like a war set. Her eyes widened when the last cars opened. “Shit!” She whispered. What was it with her and getting involved with dangerous men? She knew that face. Devin Stone. Dressed in all black, and looking like he was about to rip the fucking world apart. Behind him, stood Dreykov, and he looked just as cold, and just as dangerous. His men looked like mercenaries stra

    Devin got into his study and took a seat, closing his eyes. What was the use of a system upgrade if the one person he wanted to find was able to block themselves? He turned on the screen again, and a blinking bar sat next to a line of text. >Enter Query. Devin took in a deep breath and typed again. >What killed Henry Blake? The screen froze and symbols started to pop up on the screen. Devin was annoyed. “What the fuck is this?” >How to override magic locks? The system started to load, and all of a sudden, his inventory made a sound. He opened it, and saw a large key in one of the sections shining. He selected it and dragged it onto the screen. >Magic Key Detected. Attempting Override... …Bypassing Restrictions... WARNING!!! TRACING FORBIDDEN ZONE!!! HIGH-RISK SPELL IDENTIFIED!!! Then it stopped working. Devin wanted to curse at the world. All of a sudden, a message popped up. >Cause of death: Hexed Nightmare Charm Spell. …Caster: Viktor. Devin’s heart s

    Devin didn’t care about what nonsense they warlock was spewing at him here. He didn’t care about what he did or did not do, he was going to get what he came here for. Jareth’s eyes twinkled as he watched Devin carefully, like he was studying a rare creature. The man before him was quite intriguing, and he felt powerful. But Jareth felt he could take him on if it came to it, defeat him even. “I need the necklace.” Devin said simply. Jareth leaned back against the leather armchair behind him with an amused smile playing on his lips. “Everyone needs something, Mr Stone. That’s not how transactions begin.” Devin folded his arms, trying to hold back his irritation. “Alright then. How much?” Jareth started to laugh mine Devin had told him the funniest thing ever. “Y-you want to buy it? You will go bankrupt and have your soul in debt for the rest of eternity if I give you a price.” He wiped off a tear. Devin shrugged slightly. “Money, power, land, whatever you want.

    Devin heard a knock on the door. He didn’t look up immediately. He sat on the edge of the large armchair in his private study, his shoulders heavy, and his eyes bloodshot from grief and exhaustion. He tried to keep the fact that he was still broken a secret from everyone else, but had been solitary confined to his room and study. He had had long days of silence and whiskey, and the last person he expected or wanted to see was anyone that wasn’t Kia. He heard another knock. He sighed, irritated. He had explicitly said that he didn’t want to be disturbed. Whatever it was better be damn important. He rubbed his face with his palms, and finally grumbled. “It’s open.” The door opened, and Petra Knight entered inside, dressed in a long, black coat, her hair tucked into a sleek bun. She looked beautiful, but her eyes bore sadness for him. “Petra.” Devin said, surprised. He rose to his feet and shook her hand. “I wasn’t sure if I should come.” She said. “But I had to. I n

    The restaurant was nice and pretty, the music was good, and the air smelled really delicious. It as the perfect place to eat, Devin thought. He pulled out a chair for Petra, who smiled and sat down, brushing her curls off her shoulder. “This place is… nice.” She said, looking around. “It’s the only place I could think of that didn’t reek of bad memories.” Devin muttered as he took his seat. “Everything else reminds me of her.” Petra nodded slowly. She didn’t speak right away. Instead, she watched him for a while, watched the way his fingers tapped the table, the way his eyes kept looking anywhere but at her. “You didn’t have to take me out, you know.” She said finally. “I get that you’ve been through more than a rough patch.” “I wanted to, actually.” Devin replied. “You’ve been there for me after everything. I figured I could at least do something decent.” Petra smiled shyly. “Fine. Decent is good.” A waiter came by, took their orders, and poured wine into thei

    Amanda had never felt this invisible in her entire life. She was sitting quietly of Viktor’s living room, munching on some food and scrolling through her cracked phone. Viktor had barely spoken to her in two days, let alone offer to get her a new device. No good mornings, no how are yous, and not even his usual smartass comments he would say when they discussed before all of… this happened. He barely looked even at her. The silence wasn’t peaceful, it was suffocating. She dropped the fork and crossed her arms, glaring at the back of his head. He was sitting by the window, reading a thick old book like she didn’t even exist. “You’re ignoring me, aren’t you?” She asked. Viktor didn’t even act like he was being spoken to. “So we’re doing this now?” Amanda snapped. “I’m just some bug you’re waiting to squash?” “No.” Viktor said without looking up. “Bugs at least make noise. You’ve been sulking like a rejected puppy.” Amanda’s jaw clenched. She got up and walked over, sta
