The road was dark, and it was very unlikely to walk on the streets with no visible lights. She walked forward with her instincts, having no idea where she was heading. Her heart felt very heavy, and she thought she might die in this lonely and desolate place without any lights. Just then, her vision was blinded by a warm light. She looked up and saw a hand reaching out.With excitement, she raised her hand, trying to touch it, but a hairy and cozy hand pulled her back. She felt that this hand was familiar and stared intently at the person's face despite the darkness around her. That's when she saw him."Asher?" she said with a shocked expression. Just then, she woke up with sweat on her forehead as she stared at her unfamiliar surroundings. She thought for a moment that she had been abducted by Asher, but she quickly realized that she was married to this "monster." Her wedding gown was still on, and it didn't look like it had been touched.She sighed in relief. She heard the

The weather on Juniper and Asher's wedding day was nothing short of perfect, as if nature itself had conspired to bless their union.The clear azure sky stretched endlessly, a pristine canvas devoid of clouds, while the sun bathed the surroundings in a gentle, golden warmth.A gentle breeze rustled through the lush gardens of the venue, carrying with it the sweet fragrance of blooming flowers that adorned the ceremony space.The temperature was comfortably gentle, neither too hot nor too cold, ensuring that the guests felt at ease in their formal attire.As Juniper arrived at the grand entrance of the opulent venue, all eyes turned to behold her breathtaking beauty.She descended from a sleek, midnight-blue Rolls-Royce Phantom, its polished exterior glinting under the soft glow of the chandeliers that lined the driveway.Juniper's radiant presence was matched only by her enchanting attire.She wore a gown that seemed to have been plucked from the celestial heavens themselves.The bodi

Juniper couldn't bear to look at the scene unfolding before her and turned her gaze away."Cole," Sunny called out in a warm voice, trying to get his attention."Yeah," Cole replied, still lost in his thoughts as he had been staring at Juniper."I said I want that set," Sunny reiterated."Okay, honey, let's ask around," Cole replied, his loving expression unchanged as he gently led her toward one of the store's employees.After inquiring, they learned that the jewelry set in Juniper's possession was the last one ordered and wouldn't be available again until next year."I'm sorry, sir, but this set was specifically ordered for Miss Juniper Reed. It's not possible to obtain another one at the moment," the sales clerk explained politely.Upon hearing this, Sunny, who was accustomed to getting what she wanted, began to simmer with anger."Then you will have to get me her set," Sunny demanded."I'm sorry, Miss, that's not possible," the sales clerk reiterated with a calm smile.Sunny, furi

Asher was amused by her facial expressions and couldn't help but smile. "I know what you're thinking. You probably hate my guts now, right?" he asked.Juniper looked at him with a shocked expression. "How..." she began to ask."That's not important. What's important is why I called you here," he said, gesturing to the chair opposite him.Juniper didn't ask anything else and took the seat he pointed at."Your life is pretty messed up, if you ask me. I don't like you very much, but I also hate the fact that your ex-boyfriend is a loser, which triggered me," Asher admitted."He is not my boyfriend," Juniper replied. Asher shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he didn't care about that detail."What I want is very simple. I agreed to this marriage because of my grandparents. I can help you with your crumbling company, and you can help me deal with the pressure from my grandparents," Asher explained."What do you want me to do?" she asked.Asher couldn't help but think that Juniper co

Days had passed since her outburst before Emily. Juniper sat with her parents around the dinner table, wearing a calm expression. She looked nothing like someone who was still going through a breakup. In just a few days, her life had turned upside down, but she didn't have time to care about any of it. Her determination to become powerful and strong fueled her thoughts, leaving little room for anything else.During these few days, she finally got to meet the loving and approachable old matriarch of the Knightley family, Sara. Juniper was a bit awkward around her, not knowing how to react. The old man was the complete opposite, neither smiling nor acting distant towards her. However, the one person she hadn't seen since their first encounter was Asher, and she didn't care as she had other things to worry about.Shane looked at Mark, and they both stared worriedly at their daughter. They had heard about what happened but didn't know what to do in this situation."Juniper, did yo

Juniper stared at Asher, who was smirking at her. She felt in her heart that this person was emanating danger. But her father's words were something she never thought she'd hear."What fiancé? Since when do I have a fiancé I know nothing about?" she asked angrily."Honey, can you calm down? This is unlike you at all," Shane said, trying to keep things calm."I'm glad you noticed that, 'mother.' Or should I call you a devil? What parent would sell their daughter for their own benefit? And you could have done better; you sold me to this worthless piece. You guys have already done your worst. I'm out of here."Before anyone could stop her, Juniper was already outside. She saw an old couple coming toward their mansion, but she didn't have the heart or energy to speak to anyone. She got into her BMW and rode off without a care in the world. What would happen next with her parents was none of her business.Back in the mansion, Mark and Shane were terrified by Juniper's attitude when sh

Teresa Trees towered above Teresa, overgrown bushes and dried out roots lay about in the woods. The wind rushed past Teresa as she ran as fast as she could.She could barely maintain her speed, getting increasingly exhausted as her fatigue rose with every step she took. Her right foot got trapped within the dried tree roots causing her to fall on herself.Teresa tripped and fell, using both her hands to cushion her fall. But then she lay there, her chest rising and falling in quick successions. Her lungs burning, she could barely move.Teresa wasn't sure just how deep into the forest that she had wandered, but she had just kept on running, despite the gunshot...Teresa shut her eyes close, stopping her from wanting to cry again, although she was unsure if she had any tears left. She tried to push herself off the floor but failed at it, her body was shaking and weak.They'll catch me if I don't run. She thought to herself...As soon as she thought about those words, she heard a loud c

Teresa"Good morning dear? Are you feeling alright?" Mrs Rachael asked her calmly whilst she opened the door to her rooms.Teresa kept her eyes closed, she wasn't feeling well enough to come to terms with her reality. Last night had really been a shocker for her, she had hardly slept after listening to what Stefano had said about her.The words calmly resounded in her head, how badly he wanted to kill her, his words had truly broken her heart. It made her understand just how lonely and broke she was in this world.For a moment she had even considered killing herself, ending her pain and sorrow all at once, no one would miss her, in fact isn't that what they all wanted?Perhaps only people at the church might miss her but that was about it. Yet she lacked the courage to do anything to end her life. It was indeed a sad situation.She had thought endlessly about what to do, where to go? Who to meet? She has no doubt that Mother Supreme had already been approached by KING. She was so sure

Teresa became scared to the wits. She stood in a position and held her breath as Guillermo and Stefano drew closer towards her direction to know who was also with them in the woods.“I won't hurt you, I promise. I just need to know who is there.” Stefano lied as he echoed the words loudly.Teresa knew now more than ever that if she surrendered she would likely be dead by morning. She could see Stefano five feet away from where she hid herself but still chose to stay firm and hold her breath.“My lord, I don't think there is anyone here. I really haven't heard any movement in the woods since we came here.” One of the gang members said.“Same here, I believe it was probably the wind.” Another gang member chipped in.“Alright then let's head back to KING,” Stefano said as he turned back so they could leave.Shortly after they left for KING and Teresa could finally release her breath. She began painting so hard but was still shocked as regards what she just found out. She had a mixed feel

Teresa ran as fast as she could till she located the house where Mother Superior directed her. She got to the door and stood there for some minutes to catch her breath before she finally knocked.“Who is there?” A woman inside the house voiced out.“It's Teresa, from Mother Superior.”The woman immediately rushed to open the door for Teresa as she asked her to hurry inside. She handed over a cup of water to Teresa and offered her a seat.“I heard all that had happened to you, Teresa.” Mrs Rachel said as she gave a huge sigh.Teresa felt sad and didn't know the best reply she could give at the moment.“How long am I going to stay here?” “For just a few days, Teresa. There are plans to take you out of the city to a safer place. My house isn't safe as well.”Teresa bowed her head in disappointment as she began to cry. She felt like her world was falling apart. She wanted freedom from the convent but not something like this.Mrs Rachel walked towards where Teresa sat and parted her shoul

It was a very drowsy morning in the convent and almost everyone was still fast asleep. Seeing that everyone was tired and there wasn't enough food to go around for breakfast, Mother Superior decided to summon sister Maria.“You sent for me, Godmother.” Sister Maria asked in affirmation.“Yes I did, I would love you to go to the marketplace and get some food.” Mother Superior said.Without further discussion, Sister Maria agreed to go to the market to get some food. She went almost immediately and as she approached the market, she heard people wailing and crying. She decided to choose a hideout to view what was happening carefully and quietly. She saw the people living around the market being terrorized. She also realised it was Stefano's men.“What's going on? Why are they rough handling the people?” Maria asked herself in so much pity.She decided to stay in the hideout and watch carefully to at least have a grasp of what was going on. The mass terror of the people was quite alarmin

Stefano was in shock as he headed back to the base with the remaining of his gang members. He spoke to no one and turned deaf ears to everyone as well. Vincent was really worried and spoke all manner of appraising words to Stefano but they all kept falling like a pack of cards.Guillermo noticed Stefano and the gang members approach the gate and he was so shocked his brother made it back alive. He thought Lucas would kill him but it seemed as though Stefano had conquered. Guillermo walked to Stefano trying to greet him. Stefano pushed him away in disgust as he didn't want to talk to anyone.“What's the matter?” Guillermo asked as Stefano walked past him.Everyone was quiet as well as they watched Stefano head for his inner chamber.“What's going on here?” Guillermo asked more curiously.“It was all your fault,” Vincent replied in anger.“How dare you?” Guillermo raged as he walked closer to Vincent.“You can't do anything to me, and I am not afraid of you. You are so much unlike your
