"Liam… that little wife of yours is really something. You are so damn lucky," the white-robed man began to say while walking towards the couple.

He was the General of the Southern Dragon region, Elton Vien. Emma had heard about him long ago, but never in her right mind, she had imagined a man so brazen like him. She thought that all of the military men, and more than everything, the ones in the dragon clan, would be quite stone-faced…

    "My lady, are you still angry?""Humph"Emma looked at the shameless man with angry eyes and turned around."Emma, please, I am sorry, okay… darling?" Liam was walking behind her as she seemed weak and in pain. He kept pounding on her for the entire day, he made her even beg to stop, however, he kept asking for one more time. She didn't know that she was weak against those pleading words. "I am sorry, okay? Please, darling, I beg you."She didn't want to forgive him so easily but the man was making a gentle and cute face.

He smirked while caressing her back. The soft and white skin of her back was now stained with his loving marks, making a beautiful painting.

    Emma was over ecstatic when the training dummy was thrown out of the training platform with one of her attacks. It was almost destroyed."That was good, my darling," Master Jin was sincerely praising the little witch that now was mastering a new technique he had taught her just a few days ago. She was learning very fast and he was very proud. Somehow he felt that her talents were too amazing to go unnoticed, and he wondered why she was kept hidden. Her family must have known."Then… Am I ready to fight someone, another person…?""That could…""No" The Duke's voice reached their ears. He was swamped that day with work, many reports had been pilled up on his desk but he still insisted on bringing his work there, close to her.He was fine watching her fight the dummies as Master Jin was controlling them, and she wouldn't receive any damage but even with that, he looked so anxious seeing her face.

    Night and thunder surrounded the castle; the tall towers of stone crumbled with the echoes of the wind hitting the walls and windows. Fear was easy to feel, anxiousness could invade the heart and soul of the weak, but the woman lying in the last room of the tower was still indifferent. The terror of residing on an earth that had been already taken over by murderous creatures didn’t make her succumb to shivers and sorrow.Even when strong golden chains gripped her fair porcelain legs, leaving painful red marks in the soft skin of her ankles, she didn’t care, nor did she make a whimper. The man who trapped her never unlocked them once from the first day he took her a year ago. He only watched as she sat on the floor with her back to the wall, occupying one corner of the room.

    "What is the meaning of this symbol?"The man looked confused. The sweet voice of Emma made him lose control of his words and actions.

The golden symbol engraved in the ring glowed with the two little red gems. It was a magnificent piece, almost as if a genius craft maker had taken inspiration from heaven. The way it was done was marvelous. A masterpiece. Victor's eyes stared at the ring for a few seconds and wondered where did she get that kind of gold. If she had sold it before, then her debt would have disappeared too. It was not as if she didn't try it, but the elders didn't let her do that. They knew it was the clue to find her real identity. However, Emma didn't hesitate to go to the ma

As they were moving around the roads, she noticed that they were leaving the small town and entering what seemed a base surrounded by tall trees and a metal fence."We will stay here, for the time being, my love," the man whispered and kissed her long hair. Emma didn't care as she was tired. For now, she shall pretend to agree with the man and his needs.She closed her eyes and slept without care. When she felt that he carried her to a room and into a bed, she let him caress her face as she succumbed to her dreams. Again, the man with the red eyes showed up.

    The restaurant, which once was filled with chatters and laughter, was now echoing with silence. The few last days, the old elders kept it closed as it seemed that no one would enter the business for fear of the consequences, they will go to the neighbor town to sell some of their goods, though the journey there was a bit long."I will go out," Emma said after her training in her room. She had been having more progress in controlling her illusions, but it was not enough, she needed to test them. She came down the stairs and the two elders were already finishing preparing for the next day as they will go to a faraway market.

    I turned around. There was a young boy with a tired face, dark circles underneath his green eyes, disheveled black hair and wearing a long white hoodie with an image of a smiling face. He seemed to have just woken up from the look of the dried saliva in his mouth and cheek. I didn't need to guess who he was. "Jason""Yes, Mr. Hill asked me to fetch you, but...""You fell asleep," I smirked at the cynical face before me. He was not even feeling guilty. "It's okay I arrived fast and well," I said with a smile that was not reaching my eyes. Later I will have a little play with him."Mr. Hill will call you for your first task this evening, *yawn...*"Mr. Hill was one of the top assistants of that old man. I had never met him before, but I heard about him by listening my father's talk over the phone. His tone was always respectful even when he was the son and heir of Peter Lark and Mr. Hill was only a mere assistant. It was evident that Mr. Hill was not a

    They lived without worries for that entire week, with no news about the mafia group nor their men. The old madame was still recovering in the hospital and afraid to return to her house though. Her younger daughter came to see her take her away from that town as quickly as she was informed. Her son, on the other hand, never showed up, no one knew where he went. However, it was almost like an illusion of safety. Quiet and calm in the streets, not many passersby, just dust and the clash on the windows. Everyone knew that the thugs will come, they had already waited a lot of time to unleash their attack. The residents and friends who had heard about the situation with the Larks were afraid to go to the restaurant; those days not many customers went to eat or even order some take-away. Only after the harsh efforts of Emma going around the neighborhood town to set a stand in the market, they were able to complete the rest of the money for that month. "Emma, my dear, you

    The local police arrived at the small house with a small ambulance to take the old madame to the local clinic. They all knew her, and some of the neighbors had already reported the situation as they heard the scandal from afar, however, all of them were scared to get out of their houses.
