Author's Pov "I am so exhausted." Katherine groaned. She plopped down on her bed, covering her face with her pillow. Going to the Delacroix Mansion was not something she had counted on in her entire life but Elaine made it happen. Mila might have gone there but she no chance to. "Miss. Your sis
Elaine’s Pov “That’s your brother? He’s ugly. Really ugly.” I whispered to Zade who snickered at my words. Truly, to me, this Jade was really ugly, not as handsome as Zade. I stared at him for a while, frowning, even from where he stood, I could smell the amount of female perfume coming from him.
Elaine's Pov “Yours? How noble.” Jade sneered, brushing imaginary dust off his shoulder, “But don’t think for a second that your actions will go unnoticed. Father doesn’t take kindly to being disobeyed, baby brother. You know that better than anyone.” “Like I said, it's your problem not mine. H
Elaine's Pov “They’re just people, Elaine. It's not like you've not stood in front of a lot of people before. You literally did this when dealing with Caleb and Emily.” I muttered under her breath, trying to steady my raging nerves. Guests who were dressed in glamorous attires filed into the l
Elaine's Pov. “This is bullshit, you know?!” I muttered angrily under my breath, frowning when a gust of wind flowed into the shed, making my body automatically shiver. Not only was I locked up in a place where it was going to be hard for people to pass through, I was also cold, dirty and smelly.
“Elaine, although to you and to others, this is just a normal debut, but it's not. You don't know how you went missing and why I spent so much time finding you. There are people in this family who haven't shown themselves. Those who are waiting for you to be officially recognised into this family so
Elaine's Pov It was as if a boulder had fallen down on Mila and Jade, the both of them stumbled in shock and horror. I went straight to them, my brother's and Zade right behind me. When I stopped, I beamed at them, stretching out my hands for a handshake. “Mila Hall and Jade, right? I've heard s
Elaine's Pov “Am I interrupting something? And why is my dear sister on the floor shaking like a leaf? Did she do something to you, Elaine?” Katherine questioned, standing beside me, next to Elijah. After this, I was going to become a wingman for both of them. If Katherine could get married to E
Elaine's Pov "Different headlines. Different stories. Different talks. All in all, we got what we aimed for, right?" I glanced at Elijah who nodded. We were lounging on the patio of our mansion which by the way was renovated to a bigger mansion and then council's part of the building was destroyed

Her once-loyal allies were turning away, slinking toward the exits like rats fleeing a sinking ship. Cowards. She had built them from scratch. She had given them everything, made them who they were. And now, in the face of a little adversity, they were abandoning her? No. No. NO!Her hand shot out
Author's Pov Gasps rang through the entire place as the recording played. Vivienne stared in shock, the corner of her eyes going red."Turn it off! Turn it off!" She shrieked. But no one moved to do so, either they didn't want to or they were frozen in shock. Vivienne growled under her breath and r
"Oh, so you admit it’s your love life!" Jared teased, grinning widely. "Jared!" Elijah snapped, though the tips of his ears turned red again. Zade, who had been quietly observing the lively exchange, finally spoke up, "We need to stay sharp. The council will try to salvage whatever they can at t
Author's Pov The council room was quiet, none of the elders speaking. Each were deep in their thoughts. News had began to circulate, news that they weren't able to control and it didn't help that no matter what they did, they were not able to find something they could use on the Delacroix family, i
Elaine's Pov “Pregnant?” I blinked, staring at him as if he’d just spoken in a foreign language, "W… What?" "You’re about eight weeks along.” He continued gently, his eyes twinkling, "And everything looks healthy. Congratulations." For a moment, I couldn’t speak. I couldn’t even breathe. I tu
Elaine's Pov"So... Have you set a date for your wedding with Zade yet?" My mother asked while wiggling her eyebrows. "We haven't actually. With all the stuff that's going on, we haven't been able to see each other as much as we used to. And it doesn't help that he's always at the company, I barely
Authors Pov "There's nothing?! You've checked and there is really nothing?!" Vivienne questioned, her eyes wide, "But how is that possible? There should be at least something that we can use to..." Vivienne frowned."How about fabricatng evidence against them? If we are able to do that just to thro
