Celeste had been staring at her reflection in the mirror for a long time, seemingly lost in deep thought.“Señora Celeste, are you alright?” Lisa’s voice pulled her back to reality.Lisa and Lyn were currently doing her hair and makeup, while Celeste sat silently in front of the vanity table.She nodded listlessly. “I’m fine, why do you ask?”“Hmm? Are you sure? It seems like you didn’t sleep well last night, and you look low on energy this morning. Did you stay up too late?” Lisa asked, her concern evident.Celeste sighed heavily. “I’m not sure… It feels like something happened last night while I was asleep, but it’s all so jumbled that I can’t remember.”“That might explain why your eyes are so puffy and red today, Señora,” Lyn said, noting her unusual demeanor.“My eyes are red?” Celeste looked at herself in the mirror and was startled to see how swollen her eyes were, complete with dark circles. “I look like I’ve aged five years. Do I look terrible?”“Oh no, Señora Celeste! You don

Two months versus nearly two decades. Diego chuckled to himself.He understood that it wasn’t easy for Celeste to erase her feelings for her ex-husband, especially in such a short time. It was impressive how she managed not to show any emotion whenever the name of that man came up.Love, pain, trauma, resentment, and anger towards her ex had all mixed together. Anyone who had gone through what she had would likely choose to harden their heart.Even Diego, who had been single his entire life, understood these things. He grew up watching his mother being cheated on repeatedly by his father. Diego remembered the physical abuse his father inflicted on his mother and the way he poisoned her mind. For Diego, a child at the time, it was traumatic and the reason he now avoided romantic relationships.In the end, his mother chose to end her life by hanging herself right in front of him.Diego sighed as he recalled that memory. He shook his head and pushed the thoughts away.The point was, he c

“Primo Semion!” Lisa, one of Celeste’s personal assistants, exclaimed in surprise when she saw Semion entering the mansion late at night. “You’re coming home tonight?”He nodded. “Where’s Celeste? Is she asleep?”“Yes, Primo! Señora went to bed early because she didn’t sleep well last night and was tired from her activities today.”“Is that so? Alright, I’ll head up. Lock the door.”“Yes, Primo!”He took large strides toward the long staircase, hurrying to their bedroom.In truth, he wasn’t supposed to come home tonight since he was busy leading their organization, and Diego had wasted his time by taking him to that bar. So, he decided to come home since his plans were already ruined.When he arrived at the room, he carefully opened the door, afraid he might wake Celeste. He made no noise until the door was securely closed behind him.“T-Take it easy… don’t…”Semion froze at the sound of Celeste’s crying. His eyes widened as he looked at their bed, where Celeste was curled up under a

“I’m sorry, I didn’t know…” Celeste lowered her gaze, hiding her face in her hands.She had no idea that this was happening to her while she slept. She had no clue that she was dreaming about her parents and crying in her sleep!“S-Sorry!” She suddenly covered her face with her palms. “I really didn’t know, Semion. I must be disturbing your sleep! I’m so sorry!”After a month of sleeping together at night? It was embarrassing that she hadn’t realized she was showing such a weakness to Semion!“Please don’t get me wrong, Celeste,” Semion said gently. “I’m not telling you this to embarrass or discriminate against you. I just want you to be aware and get help for your condition.”Celeste lowered her hands and looked at Semion with a long face. “Do you have anyone you can recommend who can help me? Because no matter how I think about it, I don’t remember having nightmares—there haven’t even been any good dreams. Last night was just particularly bad, and I felt overwhelmed…”Semion swallow

“Celeste…”With eyes dim and red as if she hadn’t slept in weeks, Darson stared at a photo of his former wife from when she was still single.The picture showed fifteen-year-old Celeste with a broad smile, looking at the camera. She was wearing a simple pink dress that highlighted her glowing complexion. Her hair was styled in waves, reaching down to her waist.She was such a beautiful woman… who should have been his alone.“Celeste,” he stroked the picture frame with his thumb. “You’re a lying bitch. You said you would love only me. Where are you now? With another man?”He had downed countless bottles of alcohol in his rage, and now expensive empty bottles were scattered across the bed he used to share with Celeste.In his pain, Darson clenched his fist, ready to hit his chest.“Celeste! Celeste…” He repeated her name over and over, lost in a cycle of frustration and despair.He seemed irrational, unable to understand why Celeste had left him. He couldn’t grasp why she was now in ano

“Madam! Thank you so much, Madam!”“Madam Celeste! You’re a blessing to us!”“We’ve got our farm back!”“We can bathe in the river again!”“Madam Celeste!”Celeste was taken aback by the crowd that greeted her as soon as she stepped out of their van in the province after her three-week absence. She hadn’t expected to be mobbed by people so excited to see her.“Please, calm down, everyone!” she urged, though she couldn’t help but smile at their enthusiasm. They were reaching for her hand and trying to hug her. “I only did what was right for all of us!”“Madam! Thank you for coming back!”“The Allegra’s goons are finally leaving!”“Madam Celeste, long live!”Celeste’s heart was deeply touched by the warm welcome from the people. She spoke to them emotionally, despite their eagerness to see and embrace her.She knew that little by little, people were getting back what was rightfully theirs thanks to the departure of Demetrio’s men from the area. But it still didn’t occur to Celeste that

“Hmm~ nanana, nana, hmm mhmm~” Chiarra hummed softly as she gently stroked her large belly.She looked serene and content, like a delicate pregnant woman quietly resting on the plush sofa in the living room. It seemed she was happily taking care of herself for the baby growing inside her.However, behind her, a maid knelt with a swollen face, secretly sobbing. This was because Chiarra had just vented all her anger on the maid, Tami.Why wouldn’t she? Darson had ignored her for two whole weeks. She couldn’t contain her frustration any longer, so she took it out on Tami, who was failing miserably at serving her.“Tami, turn on the TV. The baby wants to watch cartoons.”“O-Okay, Madam!” The trembling maid stood up, her knees buckling as she walked to the TV to grab the remote and turn it on.But before she could even change the channel, the loud volume of the news broadcast filled the room.“‘The Costa family has taken over private lands in the province currently being contested by farme

As night fell, what was supposed to be a small gathering with Celeste and the farmers turned into a grand celebration, almost like a fiesta for an entire neighborhood. Loud music, strong drinks, and appetizers emerged, quickly leading to a lively dance party.“Is it cold?” Semion asked Celeste as he draped a large black jacket over her shoulders.The chill in Celeste’s arms, caused by the evening breeze, was replaced by the warm comfort of the jacket. Her attention shifted from the dancing people to Semion, who had seated himself next to her.“Thank you,” she said with a big smile. “Are you done talking to your staff?”“All done.” Semion adjusted the jacket on her. “Wear this properly, or you’ll catch a cold.”“Okay,” Celeste chuckled as she put on the oversized jacket. She could smell Semion’s pleasant cologne, which made her inhale deeply with a sigh of contentment.“W-What?” Semion looked away, puzzled. “Why are you sniffing like that?”“You smell so good,” she complimented.Semion

Anna quickly turned around, pulling Danica away from the dangerous scene. They ran as fast as they could, her desperate need to escape the forest pushing her forward. The faint light ahead told her they were nearly out—the low clouds overhead slowly beginning to disperse.But even as they moved, her mind swirled with confusion. Killian’s words kept echoing in her thoughts, and she couldn’t make sense of them. How could he be willing to kill to save her life? Tears welled up in her eyes. She had been wrong. She had misjudged him. Killian wasn’t like Primo Alessandro. Just because he was a Lombardi didn’t mean he was an enemy. Her thoughts were interrupted by a sudden, blood-curdling scream: "UNCLE, NO!!"Without thinking, Anna stopped running and turned. She knew exactly who the voice belonged to.But before she could even react, a loud gunshot echoed through the air. A searing pain ripped through her shoulder, and she stumbled, feeling the blood begin to trickle down her arm. She ba

"No! No, no, no!!" Danica’s voice broke with desperation as she dropped to her knees in front of her. "No, Anna, I won’t do it! I—I can't!" Her gaze shifted to Primo Alessandro, filled with defiance, as she stood up. "Who the hell are you to do this?! Do you really think I’ll play your disgusting game?!""Danica," Anna called out firmly, standing up beside her. Her voice was steady, but the uncertainty that gripped her heart was clear in her eyes.Primo Alessandro stood up abruptly, his sudden movement sending a chill through the air as he swiftly pulled out a gun, aiming it directly at her. Anna’s eyes widened as she instinctively took a step back."Primo," KIllian’s voice rang out, his grip firm as he seized his uncle’s arm, halting him mid-action."What!" Alessandro snapped, grabbing Killian’s arm in turn, but Killian didn’t even flinch.Their actions drew the attention of everyone in the room. Killian's gaze, full of intensity, was locked on his uncle. He gripped Primo Alessandro’

"Déjà vu." Primo Alessandro's smile was maddening.Anna could hear every beat of her heart, so loud it felt deafening. The wind’s chill brushed over her hands and feet, sending a strange shiver through her body. Her skin prickled, refusing to settle, as she stood frozen, her eyes wide open and fixed on him. Her breath was heavy as she stared into his eyes, and memories of seventeen years ago came rushing back.The pounding in her chest screamed with fury, a fury born from his murder of her parents. The memory of his men beating her mother was still fresh in her mind. The sound of the gunshot that ended her mother’s life echoed in her ears."We've met again," Primo Alessandro said, his smile dripping with the promise of death.Anna couldn’t speak. Her tears had dried up, but the sharpness of her glare remained, piercing through him. If her glare were made of knives, his head would have been severed from his neck by now.He hadn't changed at all in appearance or posture. But the gray in

The loud commotion pulled her out of a restless sleep. Anna's eyes snapped open, her head pounding and her vision blurry. It took her a moment to realize she had fallen asleep on the cold, hard floor of her room the previous night.Her sluggish thoughts were quickly jolted into clarity by an ear-splitting explosion that shook the entire mansion. The tremor was so violent it felt as though the earth itself had shifted beneath her.What’s happening?She bolted upright, twisting the doorknob and stepping out into the hallway. Her ears rang with the deafening sound of gunfire, and her breath hitched as she peered down the staircase. Smoke engulfed the mansion like a suffocating shroud.Her eyes widened in horror. Men clad in all-black tactical gear swarmed the premises—uncannily similar to the Lombardi’s men. She froze on the spot, watching as the Costas guards exchanged relentless gunfire with the intruders.“A-are those…?” She covered her mouth, a trembling hand betraying her growing p

Decades ago, when she was only six years old, Anna vividly remembered the night her life changed forever.It was late evening when she arrived home from school, walking alone because she had assumed someone would pick her up. Innocent and unaware, she returned to find their house in chaos.Scattered belongings littered the floor, shards of broken glass crunched under her small shoes, and droplets of blood painted a chilling path across the ground. Still clad in her uniform, her bag slung over her shoulder, she froze in the doorway, her voice trembling as she called out.“Mama?”“Mama? Mama!” Her cries echoed as she searched the house, growing more desperate with each unanswered call. The sound of a baby’s wailing drew her to one of the rooms. There, she found her infant sister, Danica, locked inside a wardrobe.“Danica!” she gasped, her shock momentarily paralyzing her. Without hesitation, she scooped her into her arms. The baby babbled incoherently, managing only, “A... A!”—her attem

"Can you please just stop?!"After an hour of non-stop crying from the baby, Chiarra couldn't handle the frustration anymore. She clutched the infant in her arms even tighter, which only made the baby wail louder."Enough! Enough! Stop it!" Overwhelmed by the incessant noise, she nearly dug her fingers into the small, swaddled body of her child. Her eyes filled with tears, no longer sure what to do to make the crying stop.The exhaustion from sleepless nights spent caring for her baby, combined with the constant arguments with Darson, left her drained and on edge every day. Because of this, all her pent-up anger and frustration were taken out on the maids in the mansion—and on her own child."I told you to stop already! I can’t take this anymore! Please, just give me a break!" Chiarra pleaded tearfully, her voice shaking with both rage and desperation as she yelled at the baby."M-Madam… I'll take care of Chrystal for you. Please, just get some rest—""If I could, I already would have

Celeste woke up the next morning feeling like she had just competed in a championship sport the night before—her body was sore and battered.She rubbed her eyes, stretching and turning her gaze to the man beside her, who was holding her tightly.Sunlight was streaming onto his handsome face. It was no longer the early morning peek but rather noon.She lifted her weak arm to smooth out Semion's thick, disheveled hair. Her eyes traced his prominent brows and long eyelashes. She ran her fingertip down his high nose and over his thin lips.Then she realized Semion was awake, as he couldn’t suppress the corners of his mouth lifting into a smile. His cheeks also rose, trying to fight returning to their usual state.Unable to help herself, she smiled and closed her eyes. “S-Se…” She stopped, her voice hoarse, likely from all the shouting and cheering from the previous night’s joy. “Are… um, have you been awake for a while?”“No.” His eyes remained closed.She tried to remove Semion’s heavy a

Celeste leaned back against the wall as she sat on the low cabinet. The items that were neatly stacked there earlier were now scattered across the floor.Her heartbeat was as rapid as her breaths as she watched Semion’s head between her parted legs.This was the second time he had lowered himself like that in front of her. She was used to seeing Semion with his head held high, as if he never bowed to anyone. But now, the scene before her was the complete opposite.There was something in her feelings she couldn’t explain, despite the darkness enveloping the room and the single dim light providing scant illumination.He was torridly kissing her intimate parts, just like how he had kissed her lips earlier. Hungry and thirsty for her essence.“Ahhh… Ummm, ahhh!” The heat was overwhelming. She was leaking slick fluids that mingled with Semion’s lips and tongue. The addicting sound only ignited every muscle in her body.She gasped for air as Semion spread her long legs further apart. The on

“S-Semion…”Celeste gasped as Semion’s soft lips descended on her neck. Biting her lower lip, she dug her nails into the luxurious fabric of his black coat.“Mmhhmmp!” She couldn't help but moan at the sensations coursing through her.The room was dark, perhaps because as soon as they entered, Semion had seized her with a kiss, like a thirsty stranger.Her plan to shower and change into comfortable clothes was quickly forgotten due to what Semion was doing to her body.His large hand slid up her dress, moving toward her underwear. Semion’s fingers pressed down on her lower body with a mixture of intensity and possessiveness. Celeste felt it acutely when he suddenly bit her neck!“Ahh!” She cried out in pain, her throat dry as she gasped for breath.“My wife,” Semion’s warm breath invaded her ear, making her shiver and raising the hair on her arms. “I want to mark you as mine…” He kissed the spot he had bitten. “Just for me…” He licked the mark. “All mine.” His teeth brushed against he
