As I cautiously made my way towards Clyde, the room seemed to hold its breath, as if it were collectively bracing for what was about to unfold. The atmosphere was thick with tension, an almost tangible force that seemed to tighten its grip with every passing moment.With a mixture of trepidation and determination, I mustered the courage to speak up.

As Clyde sat in the meeting room, engrossed in the important documents spread out before him, a sudden knock at the door shattered the intense atmosphere. Surprised, he looked up from his stack of papers, "who is it?" he asked aloud.To his surprise, he heard my voice, muffled yet recognizable, coming from the other side of the door. “It’s me, Isabella.” Clyde's brows furrowed slightly, his mind still consumed by the weighty matters that had occupied his thoughts. However, he reluctantly responded, gesturing for me to enter the room, “Come in,"As I stepped inside, I could sense the tension in the air.

As I sat alone in the room, the weight of my worries seemed to bear down on me with every passing moment. The silence that enveloped the space was almost suffocating, leaving me feeling isolated and vulnerable. It was in this fragile state that a sudden and unexpected knock echoed through the room, causing my heart to skip a beat in response. Startled, my voice trembled as I mustered the courage to call out, "Who is it?"A familiar voice broke through the silence from the other side of the door. It was Diyo. I couldn't help but wonder what had brought Diyo to me at such an unexpected time.As my mind raced, caught in the swirling whirlwind of conflicting emotions, fear and a faint glimmer of hope battled for dominance within me. Unlike Clyde, who seemed to have lost touch with his humanity, Diyo had shown glimpses of his human side.I found myself torn between the instinct to protect myself and to trust in Diyo.

My curiosity burned brighter as I pressed further, "But what happened next? What unfolded in the lives of Clyde and his family?"Diyo's eyes sparkled with anticipation as he continued the tale, "Well, the feud between Clyde and Carmine is deeply rooted in the past. It all goes back to the fault of their ancestors, as you rightly pointed out."I couldn't help but furrow my brow in confusion as I tried to make sense of the situation unfolding before me. "I just don't understand," I said, my voice tinged with bewilderment. "Why are Clyde and Carmine still at odds with each other over something that happened in the past? Shouldn't they just let go of the grudge and move on?"Diyo nodded empathetically. "I get where you're coming from," he replied, his voice filled with a mix of sympathy and wisdom. "But you see, it's not as simple as just letting go of the weight of history. Especially when that history is intricately tied to your family's honor and reputation. The animosity between their

"We can't waste any more time. Everyone is waiting for us."I nodded, my expression a mix of determination and fear. I knew I couldn't delay any longer, but there was something I needed to do first. I turned to Diyo, my eyes filled with resolve."You go ahead," I said, my voice trembling slightly. "I'll catch up in just a couple of minutes."Diyo hesitated for a moment, his gaze filled with concern. "Are you sure?" he asked, his voice laced with worry.I nodded again, my grip tightening around the necklace hidden in my pocket. I took a deep breath, steeling myself for what lay ahead. "I have something to take care of," I whispered, my voice barely audible. "But I'll be right behind you."W

I demanded, my eyes fixated on him, desperately seeking the truth.Clyde's gaze shifted to Diyo, his eyes betraying no hint of emotion.

She appeared lifeless and devoid of any joy, as if something deep within her had been snuffed out.All of us, her family and friends, watched helplessly as she slowly withered away. We saw the light in her eyes gradually fade, and her once radiant smile turn into a mere facade. It was clear that she was struggling under the weight of some heavy burden, but none of us knew what it was, nor how to help her.It wasn't until one day, after years of keeping her emotions bottled up inside, that she finally broke down and confessed everything to Fenrir."I can't take it anymore," she cried out, tears streaming down her face. "I'm leaving this pack, and I'm leaving you."The words hung in t

Carlo's presence, once a looming figure of authority, now elicited nothing but contempt. His eyes blazed with fury, a storm of anger swirling beneath the surface. I could feel the intensity of his glare, a searing heat that threatened to consume me whole. In that moment, if looks could kill, I would have crumbled to dust under his gaze alone. With a menacing step forward, Carlo moved to confront me, his body tensing with restrained aggression. But before he could reach me, Carmine intervened, stepping between us with a firm resolve. "Enough, Carlo," Carmine's voice rang out, authoritative yet tinged with concern. His stance was protective, a barrier between me and the father whose control over my life had finally slipped away. Carlo's jaw clenched as he regarded Carmine with thinly veiled disdain. "She belongs with her fa

In that instant, the room seemed to hold its breath, as if the universe itself were awaiting your response. But it wasn't just a query that I posed; it was an exploration of the intricate layers of my affection. My mother, with her unwavering support and boundless care, had molded me into the person I had become. Yet, you, my love, had carved out a niche within me that was uniquely yours, painting the canvas of my life with hues of passion and understanding.The notion that my concern could be compartmentalized, limited to just one person, felt foreign to the very essence of who I was. You see, dear love, my heart was a vast expanse, capable of accommodating the most profound adoration for both my mother and you.

How could he be so callous, so indifferent to everything that had transpired? His lack of remorse only fueled my frustration, intensifying the urge to lash out.I clenched my fists, struggling to contain the torrent of emotions swirling inside me. The temptation to slap him, to make him feel even a fraction of the pain he had caused, was almost overwhelming.But I held back, knowing that violence would only escalate the situation. Instead, I met his gaze with a mixture of defiance and disbelief."You don't care about anything," I accused, my voice trembling with restrained anger. "You abandoned me, Carlo. You left me to fend for myself."His expression remained impassive, unmoved by my accusation. It was as if my words were mere echoes

I sighed heavily at his question, feeling the weight of exhaustion settling over me like a heavy blanket."Clyde, do we really need to do this?" I asked, my voice tinged with frustration. "Can you not be serious for just one time?"To my surprise, instead of the usual indifference or defensiveness, Clyde's head tipped back and he burst out laughing. It wasn't his usual fake or sarcastic laughter that I had grown accustomed to. This was genuine, unguarded laughter—the kind I had never seen from him before.His laughter filled the room, echoing off the walls and mingling with the tension that had been hanging between us. I couldn't help but feel perplexed, unsure of how to react.
