LANDON

Cressida’s eyes failed to adjust to the dim lighting as they entered the drawing room.

“It's quite dark in here, could you adjust the lighting, dear?”

Landon paid no heed to Cressida’s request. He stalked stealthily towards her with a plastic bag with a patronizing smile on his lips.

Joy submerged through his veins from what he was about to do. Finally, he’d be a step closer to achieving his goals.

“Landon dear, can you-” A gasp escaped Cressida’s lips as Landon placed a clear plastic bag over her head.

Mirth trickled down his spine.

“Landon, what's going on?” Cressida wheezed.

A maniac laugh escaped his lips, “There’s no need to scream Cressy. Remember, your drawing room is sound-proof.”

“Landon, I can’t breathe please,” Cressida struggled with aggravating ferocity.

His lips parted in a sigh and he pulled the plastic bag taut against her features.

Cressida’s movements slowed until her body went slack against Landons’

Landon ran his coarse hand on the sheer plastic bag, releasi

    7 MONTHS PRIOR NICE, FRANCE JULIEN“How may I serve you, sir?” Julien groggily resumes a sitting position on the bed as his eyes adjust to the stark bright lighting adorning the room.A green-eyed blonde stares up at him with wide eyes, her perky boobs moving with her every intake of breath.He didn’t remember French girls being desperate then again, when was the last time he visited France?His lips contort slightly as he wiggles out of her grip, “Why don’t you get dressed doll? Take some cash with you while you’re at it.” Julien runs his hands through his hair and slips out of her grip.The blonde’s mouth goes slack and her lips quiver, “Monsieur Julien co-“Julien rolls his eyes,” Merde, prend le cinq cents et pars.”“D’accord,” Blondie says as she scurries off the bed.Julien doesn’t spare her a further glance, he stalks towards the bathroom, slamming the door in her face.What was I thinking last night?

    Elsida didn’t think, her feet carried her swiftly following the sounds of Julien’s bellow until she arrived at the drawing room where a commotion had already built up.“Julien,” she whispered, rushing to his side.“My mom’s gone El,” he choked.Armand remained frozen beside his son, his eyes fixated on his wife’s lifeless body.“What a catastrophe!” someone rasped.“It’s tragic really, “ another said with no regard for the grieving family, their phone cameras shuttered with each picture they took.“You’re okay Julien,” Elsida pulled him into her arms as tears escaped her eyes, she paid no attention to the curious partygoers. She held onto him tight and wiped his face as silent tears fell from it.“Everyone out! It’s time to go home,” Armand’s secretary announced as security guards led the guests out of the drawing room.Landon rushed into the room with a trail of Paramedics, “I got them as fast as I could,” he muttered with a wild look in his eyes, a tear fell from his eye as Cressida

Julien arches an eyebrow, “Okay, I’m curious El, where do you plan to take me?”Elsida let out an exasperated sigh. “Just trust me would you?” She says tugging him closer with one arm.She leads him to his black Porsche and his eyes follow her with mild amusement. The first positive emotion she’d had from him in the past few days.Thank Goodness, she muses.“Your keys Julien.” Julien hands her the keys and makes his way to the passenger seat. Elsida switches on the ignition and the car roars to life.“Care to tell me where we’re going El?”“Nope,” Elsida mutters keeping her eyes straight ahead as she reverses out of the church.A sincere laughter escapes Julien and Elsida’s heart spasms wildly against her ribcage. “Did I say something funny?” She asks as though the sound of his throaty laugh didn’t revive something deep in her.A grim line spreads across Julien’s lips, his face takes on the blank expre

His face is sweaty and crimson with panic. His hands tremble as he raises them in surrender.Landon’s eyes glimmer with amusement, “now, who do we have here?”His Father clears his throat. “Landon don’t bait the man. Kill him and be done with it.”Landon’s lips twist into a sadistic smirk, “but, that’s going to take all the fun out of it, he may have some useful information.”His Father gives him a grim look and stalks toward him, “which is exactly why you should kill him so he doesn't run his mouth, I’ll leave you to it.”His Father’s eyes flick over the man like he’s a mere ornament before he walks out of the room.“I- I didn't mean no harm.” the middle-aged man stutters.An amused laugh slips past Landon’s lips, “I’m sure you didn't, can I take a look at the phone you have in your hand?”

    Elsida doesn’t waste time unbuckling her seat belts when the taxi driver arrives at her house, she rushes through the door and lets out a ragged breath when she sees Nancy and Natasha crouched together.“Nancy,” she sighs as tears fall down her cheeks.“Elsida,” Nancy breathes, pulling away from Natasha and walking towards her briskly. She wraps her shaky arms around her.“How bad is he?” Elsida croaks.Nancy attempts to get the words past her lips but they just quiver and Elsida grips her arms tightly in reassurance. Who was she kidding? She could barely keep herself together, Nancy’s hands clasped in hers provided her with a sense of reassurance of whatever was to come.With one last glance at Natasha, they made their way out of the house.“Can you at least tell me how he is?” Elsida whispered, her eyes meeting Nancy’s for a brief moment.They rode to the hospital in stark silence, the driver was not chatty, the radio was turned off and the usually bustling streets of New York were

I heard it was all part of a game.”“You’re not Elsida Benoit, you’re a Dalton!”Elsida releases a shuddered breath and it takes an immense amount of willpower for her to make it to the front door.The door opens on its own revealing a scowling Julien. His eyes narrow slightly when they take in her tattered state.“Julien,” she breathes.His eyes soften a fraction and the scowl on his mouth dissipates. “Where have you been El? You left in such a hurry.”Elsida’s eyes betray her and they cloud with tears, her gaze remains unrelenting.“Hey, what’s wrong?” Julien pulls her to him and she breathes his woody scent for a second before she pulls away, wiping at her tears with s

She approaches Elsida with a careful smile on her face. “They are good friends of your Father, they seem nice and have been hoping for a child, why don’t you give them a shot?”Her hands move to her baby bump on instinct. The bump she found herself getting uncharacteristically attached to. It wasn't as though she wanted to keep the child.All she wanted was for the baby to not end up in the hands of some rich bratty work-ohssesd family. The only person she wanted to have him was staring at her with a hopeful gaze.She let out a sigh, “Fine, lead the way.”As they arrive in the visitor's suite, the middle-aged couple seated rise to their feet with matching excited smiles.

The recent events have made Julien to see his Father in a different lens and he eyes him as though he’s not the same man that instilled rigid manners in him.This was not why he came to see his Father, he didn’t have time to dilly-dally yet so he cracks his knuckles and cuts to the chase.“Tell me something Father, did you know I had a son?”Armand’s gaze finally flickers to Julien but he doe

    ELSIDA “Tell me El, did you run from the peony garden to get to me?” My cheeks flush impossibly redder as I try and fail to glare at him. The moment I stepped into Julien’s limo his eyes started to twinkle and his lips drew into a large grin before he took in my disheveled expression. “Fine,” I huffed. “I won’t tell you.” His gaze grew serious as he closed the gap between us with one arm reaching for the curve of my neck. “I’m never letting you out of my sight El. Never, nothing is going to stop us from being together. Morals be damned.” I let out a bated breath as his lips hovered over mine. I try to speak but my mouth opens and closes like a fish. My head swarms with so many thoughts all at once but one stands out the most. I have him now and I don't plan on ever letting go. He robs me of breath with a light peck on the mouth that starts first as light, almost tender before it picks up. All at once, he’s everywhere. I’m clutching onto his shirt like a lifeline

    ELSIDACORONATION MORNING 5:45 AMThe last thing I remember is Adrian joining me on the bed in the earlier hours of the morning, pulling me softly to him, his grip almost fervent as he whispered sweet nothings to me.“I love you El, I hope you know that,” I recall him whispering and now at about 5 AM I feel nothing but guilt stretching me into four equilateral pieces.I stifle a yawn and stretch to his side of the bed. Noticing the emptiness, I sit up and my eyes quickly adjust to the brightness of the day.Where could he be so early?Adrian never got up until at least 6:10 so this was a tad bit too early for him to be up.I wrap my silk night robe around my body, place my feet in my slippers, and make my way through the castle in search of him.I needed to see him this morning before it was too late.I needed to tell him how I felt about everything and what I wanted to do even if he’d hate me for it.I search almost every living space of the bustling castle where servants and maids

    ELSIDA My little surprise meet cute with Beatrice turns into a sob session I had no clue I needed.Scratch that, it’s exactly what I needed, it was like the universe positioned us in the same place when I needed her the most cause what were the odds that I would find the only female friend I ever made in high school in Spain?“I know I shouldn’t love him but I just-“ I croak, trailing off as I wipe my tears hastily.“Oh please Elsida, don’t say that. We cannot control who we love. If we were able to do that, I don’t think love would have had such value.”“Not helping,” I murmur. “You’re supposed to be telling me that it’s entirely wrong and I shouldn’t be thinking about Julien in such a way when we share a sibling.”Beatrice blows a raspberry and moves closer to me, she rubs my arm softly. Luckily, the peony garden shields us from my guards and over-curious maids.“You know I can’t do that, this isn’t the first time something like this is happening in the universe. Shit happens, our

    ELSIDA PRESENTWith Adrian in Cartagena carrying out the coronation tradition and the bustle of the castle, I needed a freaking reprieve from everything.A reprieve from work, a reprieve from work, Fae’s incessant disturbance due to boredom of not having her brother around to pester, Natasha’s nagging over what she was going to wear on the coronation, and my father’s constant “Are you okay?” I didn’t think twice before I slipped past the castle doors, packing a picnic basket alongside my laptop and other drawing essentials.It was just 9 am. Two hours after the sun had risen but it seemed as though the sun had been up for over eight hours.It was all too stimulating.I let out a sigh as I chew on a strawberry and my free hand doodles nonentities on my sketchbook.“Hi El.”Julien’s voice slides into my ear and my hand flies to my chest as I stare at him with wide eyes, my heart thuds at a rapid pace as I take in casual yet classy attire.“What the hell Julien, you’re not supposed to b

    CONTINUATION OF FLASHBACKELSIDA“Can I turn around now Beatrice?” I huff as I cross my arms around my chest and feel the shimmery fabric of the red Dior dress my mother dearest purchased for me.“One more minute, patience is a virtue dear!” I snort. If I were allowed to have my eyes opened, they would have rolled to the back of my skull by now at her overzealousness for high school events.“Okay, you can open them now. Tada!” Beatrice Bellows just as I blink at the 2.0 version of me in the mirror.A smile tugs at my lips and for a split second, I let it slip through. “I look…”“Magnificent!” Beatrice completes.“Don’t you think it’s too much though?” I ask uncertainty clawing my thoughts. I looked like I was going to draw a lot of attention, attention that I could certainly do without.“Oh please Elsida, who cares? There’s no going back now. Give me a minute, let me slip into my dress and we can get going!” She bellows as she scurries across the room with her perfect-as-ever makeup

    ELSIDATWO MONTHS LATER “Are you ready?” I peer up at Adrian from my position on the bed. He sent all his assistants away who tried to pamper him with traditional powders and help him complete tasks he considered too menial to not get done by himself.He gave me a small smile through the mirror but I could see the slight frown forming on his forehead.“I’m okay Elsida,” he mutters and I have my answer confirmed.Adrian was far from okay I was one hundred percent certain that beads of sweat were lining his forehead even before I rose to my feet and clasped my hands around his shoulders.“You’re going to be a great King Adrian,” I whispered into his ear and drew soothing circles on his shoulders, the exact thing he did whenever I was nervous.I don’t blame him. If I were him, at this very moment I’d be shitting my panties.It’s not every day one got to partake in a reversal coronation.His shoulders visibly unclench. “Thank you Princessa,” he murmurs and places a soft kiss on the back

    JULIEN Two months later.It’s been exactly two months, three weeks, and four days since I last had a meaningful conversation with Elsida. She’d done her best to make sure our interactions were curt and cordial at best but whenever the opportunity came for us to be alone or have a casual conversation, she would immediately dismiss me and not spare me a further glance.However, I could tell from the longing in her eyes, that it wasn’t what she wanted, we both knew what she wanted but it wasn’t the right thing hence, at least one of us had to be mature and leave it to Elsida to be the bigger person.“Mr Benoit,” are you listening?” A business associate’s voice filters into my mind putting a pause on my mental spiral.“Of course, yes go on,” I rasp, zooming in on a recent photo of Elsida attending a ball with none other than her lovely husband.I turn my laptop off and fight the urge to throw my phone on the floor, I don’t think I can stand another minute of listening to any talk of bus

    ELSIDA“Are you ready?” Julien asks while I readjust my lipstick in my compact mirror.“Just a second, Mr Benoit.”Julien’s glare is scathing when his gaze flicks away from his phone to mine. “I told you to stop calling me that.”I ignore him and return my compact in my Chanel purse, I place my hand on the door to make my exit when his warm palm snakes around my ankle.“Are you good El?” He calls me by the nickname even though I’ve warned him several times not to use that title on me and I roll my eyes at him.“You know, this is a very important meeting for this project, we cannot let our emotions get the best of us.”As if I wasn’t aware?I knew how important this meeting was, this company was my baby and Mr Gonzalo’s investment wasn’t something I planned to play around with.He was a very successful business tycoon in Spain who liked to give nouvelle companies and empires of the sort a chance with his hefty investments and today might just be my lucky day.
