Danny stood before the fainting woman, and sadness drenched his face when he had to knock her out cold.

Shortly after that, he carried her body inside and laid her on the bed. Then, he took her thumbprint on each form before he kept the form in his pocket.

The man spent an hour cleaning her body and dressed her nicely into her nightgown. He also disposed of the band-aids around her slender fingers as her skin turned pale. Then, he left her room only after making sure that she was no longer in any possible danger.

The next day, Mira woke up with a very sore neck, and she had forgotten that Danny had visited her last night.

After freshening up, she was ready to leave for work when four men in black suits kidnapped her in a limousine and took her away.

She was taken to a large and luxurious house, unlike any other house that she had seen before. Then, she was escorted to the garden where a couple was waiting at a gazebo.

Two maids were standing, with their backs straight, beside the c

    Danny turned his gaze towards his mother and answered, "I have been busy, moving her stuff from the apartment to my penthouse."Mira, who listened, got flabbergasted. Moving her stuff into his penthouse? Danny had a penthouse?!Mira eyed the chatty man as she forced a smile.Ah, she must still be dreaming because Danny Stanford never owns a penthouse!During their relationship, Mira had always known that Danny only had a small house that was much smaller than her apartment room. He also dressed humbly all the time although he was a womanizer who always hook up with any beautiful or interesting women that he could find. He had never found his small house to be an issue for him to have fun."Baby, are you okay?" Danny asked as he suddenly caressed Mira's flat stomach. "Have you eaten for our child inside here?" He added.Suddenly, Mira broke into a loud laugh. She had lost herself to the stress that she couldn't process with her head. Everything started to fall apart on their last ni

    The chubby man on the screen eyed her sternly and then he spoke. "Mira, sweetheart, Danny is your husband now. Also, your mommy accepted him as he is. He is a nice guy and please don't be disrespectful towards his family otherwise you will make us sad." His voice was so gentle as his expression turned soft, and his fatherly aura could be felt brimming out of the speaker.Then, he added, "By the way, daddy borrowed ten million from him to refurbish the school.”Mira fisted her hands and her face turned red with rage. However, she had no idea if she had the right to get angry. Ten million?! It wasn't a small amount but, since when had they borrowed that amount from Danny?Mira swallowed hard with clenched jaws. "Where had all of the money gone? Those that I sent every month?" she asked painfully. At the same time, she held herself from cursing.Demo smiled at her from the screen and replied, "Well, that money was never enough to pay for the salary of our teachers. Honey, daddy implore

    Marvina clenched her jaws when she heard them bad-mouthing her friend. They had the gals talking about her friend before her face as if she wasn't there. They need a good whoop in the asses!Suddenly, a voice broke the conversation before Marvina could curse at them."Ladies, that handsome man is her husband. Mind your words please."Jerome appeared from their backs and he held a laptop by his side. Everyone turned their heads in his direction. They all seemed surprised. One of the women, then, shot him a question. "What are you talking about, Mr Banner?"Jerome looked at him with knitted brows. "Eh, the whole lot of you have no idea that she is married? Aren't you lot her good friends?" he asked as sarcasm swam smoothly in his voice. He was only keeping an appearance before the humans. He approached them only to clear the misunderstanding around his master's wife since Mira would no longer bother her. Even better, Mira's family crisis would now lead to a better future, and his team

    Royce said nothing but nodded his head. He entered the car and ignited the power. Meanwhile, Elaine looked back at the balcony again. Her brows knitted.'I am sure I saw someone there just now...' She murmured alone. The presence she felt earlier had disappeared. Then, she got into the car.The vehicle moved away slowly, leaving the villa alone. As time went by, the sound of its engine disappeared.Little Veen reappeared on the balcony as he stared at the car that had now reached the main road. "Siblings?" he mumbled alone. When he turned around, Little Viele was staring at him. The two of them looked at each other with their poker faces. Then, after a minute passed, Little Viele finally spoke, "She is the sister of your master's wife. They are here to bring her home.""Thank you for the intel," Little Veen said, thanking him. "How about your master?"Little Viele explained with a monotonous tone, "He is busy searching for the culprit who had messed around with Luca Tybelg. That c

    About fifteen steps away, Mira spotted the couple. Her eyes widened and her jaws dropped when she saw Jennet nagging at a handsome blonde. She also noticed that they looked so intimate with one another."Jennet got another man? What about Luca?" she murmured in dissatisfaction. She wandered alone about the fate of her former crush, whom she had already given up on because she hoped Jennet would be with him."Jennet!" she called out and her tone was icily cold. Then, she strode towards the couple as she had gotten angry about what she had witnessed.Jennet lifted her head and she frowned when someone called her name. She turned on her heels and saw Mira pacing towards her."Jennet, what are you doing here with this man?" Mira bombarded a question without waiting for an explanation from her. She sneaked a few wary glances at the handsome blonde.Jennet inhaled a deep breath before she broke into a smile as she explained, "Well, I'm here shopping with my husband."It was about time that

    Things turned haywire as the rich family were Luca's most valuable client, and when the couple knew Jennet worked for Luca, they told him to be nice to her. So, Luca treated her nicely, thus rising another misunderstanding among his fanatic fans. They assumed she was his hidden mistress and Luca was kept in the dark about that for years, and even if he knew, he ignored such rumours.Then, when Jennet managed to afford an expensive car after working in the company for only a year, almost all of her colleagues hated her as they had no idea that the car was sold to her at a super-duper low price. Initially, the couple planned to give it to her for free but, she refused and insist to pay for it. At about the right time, she found an article about a villa that was on sale at a very low price. She, then, contacted the owner and made a deal with him. As soon as she paid the full price five years later, she moved out of the apartment and lived in the villa, and she also stopped tutoring the r

    "That good for nothing Royce is good at keeping things a secret. I hope he's taking good care of you," Rosella laughed on the phone.Elaine laughed along too. Then, she said, "Don't worry, Mama. He is taking good care of me. You should relax from overthinking things, alright? Also, I'll make sure to punish him on your behalf because he kept things secret from you.""Don't worry about me, Elaine. I'm fine here because your dear cousin is keeping me company right now. Anyways, since we're already on the phone, I want you to enjoy your holiday, and mama is not going to disturb your time.""Thank you, mama." Elaine ended the call shortly after that. She placed the phone down and turned her head towards her husband, smirking.She scoffed sourly, "Mama said that my dear cousin is keeping her company. I am sure she meant that rotten Helena, the two-faced woman!".Royce coughed softly. "Ahem, my dear, we're in public right now. Watch your words please..." he said.Elaine, then, zipped her lip

    Hue hushed her softly as he patted her back gently. "Love, they won't be able to hurt you anymore. Remember, I am with you. I will protect you from them," he whispered to her. Then, he kissed her head. "I won't let them take you away."Jennet looked up, eyeing him with her red and wet eyes. Her wet eyelashes made her look innocent and...tempting."Don't betray me..." she said without averting her gaze. "Please don't betray me."She looked like a child who had been forsaken and betrayed countless times by the people she trusted the most. Hue saw fear and helplessness, that was boundless, reflecting in her eyes. He started to wonder what she had gone through before they met. Why would his better half have to be someone with such a sad life and even under his watch she still lives her life miserably?"I won't betray you," Hue replied honestly. Then, he kissed her eyelids. "I won't betray you..."He might not know what the future held for them but he would do his best to give her a life

    "I am Jennet Lockhart!" claimed the silver-haired woman. Delton furrowed his brows. He had no idea a foreign woman had the gall to make such a claim. He had just returned from the palace and heard of something bizarre from the emperor who was reluctant to divulge the truth. His mood deteriorated after the meeting."Can you prove your claim?" he asked coldly."My ring!" she said loudly. "Hue gave me a ring as proof!"Delton glanced at her finger. There was no ring."I'm sorry, but I don't think you can play around with such a claim," he said. "Lying will add more bad deeds into your account.""I'm not lying," she slapped the bed. "I am Jennet Lockhart. Get my husband here to verify this claim!"Delton exhaled. "I'm sorry but it's improper to call upon him to verify your claim. Have you looked at yourself in the mirror?"How could she claim she was Jennet Lockhart when her appearance differed greatly from hers? This woman must be desperate to get away from her punishment.The woman we

    'Apologies for not helping much...' added the spirit.Delton sighed. "Never mind."He turned around and gestured at the reapers to leave the place....After visiting the nursery, Jennet asked to go out for a date.Hue smiled. "I love that idea. Where do you want to go? The gardens?"He was about to get bored and she proposed such an amazing idea to kill time. He was grateful that they clicked.Jennet smiled. "Is that a great place for a meaningful date? We have not gone on a proper date before. I want it to be a proper full-day date!"Hue responded after pondering, "I guess going to the garden is great. Unless you have a place in mind.""I do have one in mind," she said. She gave him a side glance and then smiled widely, "Can we go to the market again? Just the two of us."Hue's face dropped. "The market? Again?" Disappointment was clear in his voice.Jennet leaned closer. "Please, honey. This one time, please..."Hue scratched the back of his ear, contemplating. "Uh, can we go to a

    Many hours ago...After spending some time gazing at Hue's sleeping face, Jennet went to the kitchen for a drink. As she quenched her thirst, a gust of wind blew hard, knocking on the back door to the yard.She glanced as she placed the glass on the counter."That's a strong wind..." she murmured and approached to close the ajar door.'West gate...'She froze. She furtively eyed the vicinity. Her heart skipped a beat and goosebumps crawled her skin.Although terrified, she stepped out slightly and looked around; just to ease her feeling.The backyard was mantled in darkness with the twin moon hiding behind thick black clouds.Thud, thud, thud, thud...Jennet flinched and looked up. The sound of footsteps came from upstairs and, strangely, she felt it wasn't her family members.She hurried inside, locked the door, and rushed upstairs. But, the hallway was empty. However, the door to their bedroom was slightly ajar with the lights dimly lit.Jennet furrowed. 'I remember switching on all

    Hue and Jennet were downstairs when they heard loud bangs coming from upstairs.“What is that?” Jennet glanced in alarmed, half-jumping from her seat. Hue rose from his chair and assured her to sit comfortably. “I’ll go and check,” he said.“Be careful, honey.” Jennet sat down, hoping nothing bad would happen.Hue went upstairs and realised the loud bangs had come from their bedroom. He grabbed a hanger from the laundry basket near the stairs. In his grasp, the hanger morphed into a sabre.“Gomi?” he called.‘Yes, master?’ replied a voice in his head.‘Do you sense something off?’‘Apart from the spirit is ill, nothing else.’Then, Gomi’s presence vanished from his mind. Hue didn’t think much of it because he was sure Gomi and the rest of their familiars were unhappy after the twins placed them under restrained orders. In Fantasy Realm, restraining orders were considered a major distrust of the master towards the familiars. But, if the familiars were innocent, they could refuse to s

    Hue woke up when something buttery and toasty hit his nose. He unfurled his eyes and saw the Smell Folk dancing in mid-air. Their dance was very graceful and beautiful, unlike usual. It seemed as if they were celebrating something that was long forgotten.He sat on the sofa and tied his long hair into a low ponytail. Yawning, he placed the bolster on the sofa bed and approached the kitchen.Standing at the entrance, he eyed his wife, whose back faced him. She was donned in the pink apron he uses when working in the kitchen. She was placing sunny-side-up eggs on a plate."Honey, I thought I would be making breakfast today," he said.Jennet turned around and smiled brightly. "I was up too early today. So, I thought of making breakfast for us since you always made it.""Why didn't you just wake me up?" he asked."You were sound asleep, and I don't want to rouse you from your peaceful sleep."Hue scratched his head and covered his mouth to yawn. "Is this your roundabout way of asking forgi

    The turtle inhaled deeply. He broke into a smile. "Yes, of course, because some of the stuff I sell needs the good deed.""Oh..." Jennet nodded her head. She was confused but she had nothing to ask because she had no idea what to ask. The more she delves into the sensitive case, the more she gets confused about everything around them.After the conversation, Jennet and the twins took their time to see all of the stuff on display. The vast majority of the items were human's everyday stuff and were broken. For example, the quills without nibs, shoes without soles, cups without handles, bows without strings and the list just went on.Jennet came across a hilt, the only one among thousands of items on display. She felt a strange sense of Deja Vu as if she had seen it before."That one is notorious and dangerously powerful, but had a sad story..." The turtle gave an intro.Jennet glanced and asked, "What happened to it?" She was interested.The turtle inhaled deeply. "He was once a powerf

    Jennet rolled her eyes at them. "Arro, that is not nice. Please don't blatantly harm others.""But, he disrespected you. I can't let that slide."Jennet knocked his head gently and said, "Young man, you can't do that. It was my fault he got mad. I nearly stepped on him due to my carelessness. It's understandable why he talked harshly with me.""But-""That is enough. Let us continue shopping." She stopped him before he could speak his mind. If she said nothing, he would take revenge on her behalf.Arro hesitantly responded, "...Alright."Then, the twins walked ahead of her as she followed them from behind. She heard them talking, enthusiastically, about the festival that was going at full throttle.Jennet smiled and enjoyed herself looking around the place. Suddenly, someone brushed past her and something pricked her arm."Oww!" She gasped in pain. She looked down and noticed blood bleeding through the fabric on her left arm. Grimacing, she pressed her palm onto the cut to stop the b

    "Can we go to the market again?" Hue paused, reeled his hand and turned on his heels. His brows knitted at what he heard from his wife. They were in the room, making the bed. "Why? Have you forgotten that you fell ill after our first visit?" He tried to pound some sense into her head. He hoped she would cancel her plans. Jennet clasped her hands to her chest and begged, "Honey, I just want to go shopping!" Hue raised an eyebrow. "Shopping?" It was a wonder how loosely humans think about their safety. Humans love to break the rules and never learn their lesson until it is too late. Jennet nodded. "I want to bring some gifts for my family." Hue exhaled and then sighed. "Honey, I don't think that is a great idea." "Why?" "Well, in my opinion, it's best to buy the gifts in the human realm. Get something that is more of a human thing because everything here is not normal to humans." "Then, how are we going to explain about our kids to my family?" She dropped the bomb a

    Hue smiled as he crawled out of bed and stood before her. He took off the hair band that tied his long mane and it flowed free, dispensing a pleasant scent."Keep your eyes on me..." he said with a smirk."I am keeping my eyes on you," answered Jennet brazenly.Hue, locking his gaze on his wife, popped open the buttons on his shirt from top to bottom. His movement was neither slow nor fast. Then, his flawless skin came into sight. His sexy abs and sturdy pecs glistened under the light from every corner.Meanwhile, Jennet said nothing, but she gulped silently. His abs that she had not touched for weeks were within her reach. She was itching to run her fingers all over the perfect specimen! Hue tossed his shirt away but halted from taking off his trousers as he gave her an alluring gaze."You like to see me getting naked, right?""What do you mean?"Hue tilted his head to the side.
