Asper Reign Dahlia’s Pov

What the hell?

I got up and frowned when I opened my eyes and saw that I was inside my room.

Who did I get here?

As far as I remember, I was at the party that Mrs. Flerry organized. I ate together with Jyn beside the fountain, then Miracle came and we talked about how she got cornered by the youngest Flerry.

That is all I remember.

I turned my head at the clock on my side table and saw that it was already morning.

Did I fall asleep while I was talking with Miracle? And she didn’t wake me up while we were going home? It is possible.

But I doubt she can lift me on her own so how did she manage to bring me home?

I scratched my head and sighed. I will not be able to get any answer to my question if I will just ask myself

I got up in bed, went inside the bathroom to wash my face, then I tied my long hair. Then, I decided to get out of my room, while thinking about what probably happened last night.

And when I reached the kitchen, I saw Miracle cooking something.

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s PovI was so nervous after coming back to the mansion of the Flerrys. Well, I didn’t waste any time and after talking to Assiyah, I immediately fixed myself and went there.And it looked like they were expecting me because as soon as I said my name, they immediately opened the gate without even asking who I might be visiting.When I reached the front door of the mansion, a maid was waiting for me and she guided me all the way to the back of the big house.In the garden.Mrs. Flerry stood up and greeted me as soon as I got near them. She was smiling but that didn’t help me lessen the nervousness that I am feeling right now.I just felt like now that someone already knew my identity, it was just a matter of time for Dad to know where I was staying.“So, I assume that your sister already called you,” she said.I gulped my saliva before nodding. “And I assume that you are aware of my real identity.”She told the maid to leave and guided me to the table set where her y

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s PovThe Flerrys were the first people I knew who had a connection with my family and I was relieved to know that they won’t tell anyone that I am hiding in this city. In fact, they also promised that they would help me by blocking the people who have connections with my father or anyone from the palace.And that would be a great help. I would lessen my worries and I can finally go out more than usual if we could ensure that no one from the Axia Region would go here.It is strange but I didn’t think twice and just trusted their words. Even though I just met them recently.Well, I guess if they have the intention of telling my family where I am right now, they already told them as soon as they learned about me.But they didn’t. So, I don’t really have to worry about that.“You…”I turned my head to the man that spoke and I frowned when I saw Jyn. He was holding a lunch box and I think he was about to go to my house. “Oh, hi.” I went to him and smiled. “I haven’t sai

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s Pov“What the hell did you even think?” I shouted at Easter and smacked his head. “Do you even think this carefully? Or just like before, you decided without minding the result of it?”With Jyn’s help, I managed to find my brother. Though, I didn’t know where they found him and I didn’t ask them anyway. The important thing in this matter is that both my brother and the woman that he impregnated are safe from Dad’s men.I don’t need to ask them how they did it since they delivered him to me safely and without any wounds.“I am sorry,” he apologized with teary eyes while caressing his head. “I know how Dad thinks and I am sure, once he learns about Ariya’s pregnancy, he will do something to her. And I couldn’t think clearly as I remember what he did before to Kezia’s ex-boyfriend.”Easter is younger than me. But as I said before, Dad expected too much for him because he was an achiever since he was still in grade school. He was a consistent honor student until high

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s Pov“It has been a year, Reign,” Jasper, my elder brother, who I am video-calling right now. “Did you not even think that maybe Dad finally had a chance to find you since you meddled with Easter’s issue?”I immediately went home to talk to him to tell him that Easter was fine and that he was with me. I also told him the reason why they got into this kind of situation.Among our siblings, Jasper is the only one who has more freedom to do what he wants, even in front of our father because he is the heir to the Dahlia Corporation, as we all have the title of Duke of Axia Region.That is why he is the only one I can count on to convince Dad to take the deal that I constructed for Easter and Ariya. Aside from that, I can also let him handle the investigation and the punishment for the people who tried to harm the company.“I am doing this for Easter and his child so I risk everything,” I said. “Besides, I am well hidden here. There is no way Dad will find me here.”A l

    Rajiv Fleisko’s Pov“We are getting too close to the aristocracy of this country, Jyn,” I said while looking at Asper who was just getting out of the mansion. “If I had known that she is the first daughter of the Axia Region’s duke, I should have stopped you from meddling with their family issue.”“Is it really bad?” Karyu suddenly appeared at the doorway while holding a bowl of popcorn. “I mean, it is not like she is here because of us, right? As far as we all know, she was also running away and laying low from her problem in their region. She doesn’t want to marry a prince so hiding from everyone is the only option that she has. It is not like she is deceiving us to harm us.”“To be honest, our situation is not that far from what Asper is trying to avoid,” Schlain said. He just got out of the mansion. “She was also being cornered by the Azaria and their ministers which made her decide to hide here and alter her identity. And avoiding her just because she is a daughter of a duke does

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s Pov“What the hell did you just do?” Miracle shouted at me after I told him what happened these past few days. She has been busy with her work at SweetHeart so I couldn’t tell her about the issue that my brother got into. “You…” She harshly brushed her hair and glared at me. “Didn’t you even think that you just revealed your identity to Jyn and his friends?”I was about to answer but was immediately taken aback after some thought. “Wait…”Her eyes widened with shock and sighed as she shook her hair. “Yeah, Asper. You didn’t think that through.”Shit!I totally forgot about that matter because I was so worried about my brother. I was too preoccupied with his issue with our father and didn’t even think about my situation.Well, I think I did that because I was also comfortable around Jyn. I have this feeling that they will never spread about my location, despite knowing my situation.I scratched my head and sighed. “As you can see, I didn’t manage to think about tha

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s Pov“Jyn!” I immediately saw him in their garden as soon as I got inside their gate.I have a lot of snacks and healthy food for Easter and Ariyah since that is what they need the most now so I dropped by here earlier than usual.I went to him and smiled. “Good morning!”“Good morning, Asper,” she said. “You are here for your brother?”I nodded. “I will give them these snacks.” I showed him the paper bags in my hands. “And I will cook for our breakfast.”“Oh.” He nodded. “Anyway, may I request for our breakfast today?”I frowned.They rarely asked what they wanted to eat so most of the time, I was the one who decided what I was going to cook for them.“Do you know this?” He showed me the screen of his tablet and I saw a dish of soup that probably he was looking at earlier. “My sister just got this dish, made by one of our staff in our main house, and she said that it was delicious. So, I wanted to taste it but she can’t get the recipe.”“I know this dish,” I said.

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s Pov“So?” I raised my eyebrows after Jyn tasted the dish soup that I cooked. “How is it?”This is the first time that I cooked this dish. I only saw my staff make this in the orphanage that the foundation supported but I never had a chance to do it myself.As I said at Easter earlier, I didn't have a choice so I had to learn how to cook but everything was just self-taught. I watch some cooking videos and look at the recipe books that I once bought.Never had I imagined that I would be cooking something for someone else so I can’t contain my agitation to hear his feedback regarding this dish.Anxiety started filling me up as I watched him put down the spoon and look at me, wearing his poker face.But after a while, he smiled at me. “I love it.”I almost fell after hearing that. I felt relieved thinking that he loved the dish that I cooked. He even made me feel uneasy at first just to surprise me with his feedback.“It is delicious,” Karyu said while eating. “I didn

    Caspian Jyn’s Pov“Something is wrong,” Rajiv said after his phone call and turned to me. “They are all acting weird.”I frowned. “Who?”“Lucky and the rest of Asper’s bodyguards,” he answered. “I don’t know what but Asper has been acting weird ever since she met Reina at Yain City.”I leaned my back in my chair’s backrest and looked at him. “What makes you think that they are acting weird?”“Asper changed, Jyn,” he said. “For the whole year that we haven’t seen her, she changed a lot. She is no longer the type to just stay on the side, keep quiet, and do nothing.”“You think they will cover for her if she is doing something without our knowledge?”He shrugged his shoulders. “I don’t know how Asper thinks now and the caporegime that we assigned to her are all afraid and loyal to you,” he said. “But I still can’t shake the feeling that Asper is doing something.”I know what he is trying to say because I also felt that way.“Pull out the last batch of security details that we sent there

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s PovDad told me not to worry too much after I mentioned to him what Hector said to me. He assured me that he and Aasiyah are ready for everything that the palace will possibly do.He already learned his lesson through what happened to me. He has no plans on making any decision for Aasiyah and he will support anything she decides once the palace proposes a marriage for her and Cloven.Well, I know my sister. Even though she is the youngest in the family and my parents kind of sheltered her, she will never let anyone around control her.Just like me, she will fight if she doesn’t want the situation. No one will persuade her to do something she doesn’t like.But to ensure that we have another person backing us up for my sister's sake, I also informed Miracle about this. I can count on her to assure me that Aasiyah will not experience the harassment that I got from the palace before.And it made me feel relieved after talking it all to them. It is reassuring that even

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s Pov“I already transferred the foundation to my sister,” I repeated. “My lawyer finished taking care of the paperwork last year and it was finalized last week. The foundation is now formally owned by Aasiyah.”Shock was still all over his face after I explained that.Aasiyah will hold a press conference about this to publicly announce the transfer. It was scheduled for next week but since there are still threats to her safety because of me, they might reschedule it once Dad formed new security details for her.I frowned when I saw the concern on Hector’s face as if I made a huge mistake.“Aasiyah took over the foundation when I left our home two years ago,” I continued. “And because of what I have to do, I decided to completely let it go. And Aasiyah decided to shoulder everything since she fell in love working there.”“You…” He cupped his forehead and sat on the floor. I don’t know what his problem is but he is acting as if it was big news for him.And it is not

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s Pov“You are really out of your mind, Asper,” Hector shook his head after I told him what I did to Jyn’s men who were assigned as my bodyguards. “You used yourself just to hold them in the neck.”“I only have myself, okay?” I said. “I can only take advantage of Jyn’s feelings for me to make them what I want.”He shook his head again and continued bathing the horse. “You like taking advantage of everything around you to make sure that every situation will side with you.”We are in the horse stable right now. He is working while I am sitting in the corner.“Don’t talk to me about taking advantage of things, Hector. You have done worse than what I am doing right now.” I rolled my eyes. He talked like he never abused his position as the crown prince to get what he wanted before.He looked at me and pointed to himself. “I am trying to change myself for the better, right?” He pointed at me. “But you? It seems like you are changing your path.”“Well, I am entering the wo

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s PovI received a warm welcome from the original workers of the farm. I have known most of them since they started working here when Granny was still alive. Some of them were hired by me when I started handling things around here and there were new ones that Dad hired to help Judith with the work in the mansion.And of course, Hector, who immediately got along with the people here. They know that he is the former crown prince but it seems like it doesn’t matter to them. They might be treating him as a normal person but they are all nice to him.Which is good since we never know how long he will be working here.Since I let him choose what work he wanted to do here, he chose to take care of the horses we have here. Maybe because he is already familiar with that since they have been taking care of horses in the palace. And he often joins horseback tournaments so he knows how to handle one.After taking care of things around the changes that will happen around the far

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s Pov“Sorry, Dad.” That is all I can say to my father who I was talking to through Lucky’s phone right now. I am standing in an abandoned port while staring at our helicopter that was burning down through the sky. “I am still not sure about how much money I have right now but I will try to buy a new one for you.”I heard Dad sigh. “Don’t worry about that. I already had plans to buy a new one for myself and give that to your brother.”“Oh.” I scratched my head. “Now, I feel even more bad. Helicopters are the easiest mode of transportation that he can use to go to Yain City without neglecting his job here at Ilore City.”“But you are okay, right?” Dad asked. “It is good that you noticed the problem in the helicopter sooner than later.”“Maybe I was getting sharper when it comes to danger.” Ever since I learned about the Rioghail, Dad made sure to train me every day. Not just some self-defense techniques, but also about the things that I should be looking around me th

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s PovEverything that I need to move to the farm is all set. Dad already sent there the people that will help me to start the new chapter of my life.Though, I will still visit here from time to time. That is why I don’t understand why my siblings and mother are crying right now.“Seriously, guys?” I shook my head while looking at them. Especially Kezia who has been hugging me tight. “I am just three hours’ drive away. You can visit me any time you want. And I will also try to visit as much as I can. This is not something like when I was hiding in Yain City. You can call me whenever you want.”“It is still different whenever you are here,” Kezia exclaimed. “Why do you have to live there? You have been taking care of Granny’s property remotely since you all got it, right?”“I know.” I sighed. “But now that I don’t have the SweetHeart and the foundation, the farm is currently my primary source of income. I had to study everything about it from scratch. So, please? Sto

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s Pov“Give him time, Asper,” Miracle added and lay down in my bed. “He is not used to what is happening to him right now.”“I understand what is happening to him and I am trying my best not to become his burden while he is fixing everything around him,” I explained. “Isn’t that the reason why I am leaving? I chose the farm because I know that I can do everything to protect myself there without holding back. So that when he is finally ready to come back to me, he will not worry about my safety anymore.”“Does it mean, that when he finished solving all his problems and he is ready to come back to you, you will not hesitate to accept him again?”“Yup,” I immediately answered, which made her get up. I looked at her and smiled. “Moving on from him is not really part of my life. I just want to give him space while he is working on his personal issue. And I am working on my life so I can live it the way I want without fearing for my safety.”We will not be able to do anyt

    Asper Reign Dahlia’s PovPeople in the house were shocked by my decision to hire Hector and as I expected, Jasper and Kezia voiced their disagreement with my decision. Though Dad didn’t say anything, I can see in his eyes that he is also on their side this time.Mom, Easter, and Aasiyah also do not agree with it but they choose to respect what I want to do, just like what they kept doing for the past months. I guess they trust me that much now.“He is changing!” I insisted on them because they kept telling me that I shouldn’t trust Hector since we all know who he really is. “Why don’t you give him a chance?”“Do you really believe that he is capable of changing?” Jasper asked. “What if he is only pretending to get your sympathy? And when you are finally comfortable with him, he will use that opportunity to take back everything he gave up and force you again to marry him.”I narrowed my eyes on him. “Are you hearing yourself now, brother?
