"Nica," Vincent mumbled to himself in disbelief, his expression a stunned one.

"Hi. Uhm, I heard Old Evan was terribly sick, so I had to come over," Nica said, and Vincent nodded slowly.

"He's getting better now. Thanks for the, uhm, payment," Vincent said, clearing his throat. He watched Nica sit beside the old man, entangling her fingers with his.

She sighed. "I was so scared when I heard he got sick. I had to fly over to check on him." She met his gaze, and Vincent realized he was staring too much.

"Sorry, I uhm... was just wondering. How have you been?" he asked.

"Good," she smiled. "You?"

"I'm... uhm... good," his reply sounded surreal, as if he didn't mean it.

"That's great to know." She rose to her feet. "I'll be leaving now." As she made to leave, Vincent suddenly held her back.

"Nica... I... I, uh... I'm sorry. I wanted to apologize for that day you came over. I wasn't myself, and I didn't..."

"It's okay," she cut in. "I'm not mad at you."

Vincent sighed. "Nica..."

"I'm sorry

    "Mom, I can't go to the same college as my brother!" Morticia exclaimed from the kitchen."Too late. You're already admitted. Besides, having your brother with you gives me peace of mind," her mother, Ava, replied calmly from the living room.Rolling her eyes, Morticia peeked out from the kitchen, locking eyes with her mother."Mom, Vincent is a wizard. He literally tormented me in high school."Vincent, lounging nearby with his legs crossed and sipping a smoothie, winked at her. Morticia felt the urge to gouge his eyes out."College is full of all kinds of people, Morty, and that scares me. I've been there-it's a whole new world. A sweet, innocent soul like you needs someone to guide you. Your brother's in his third year; he'll help you," her mother said, her tone final. Morticia knew there was no changing her mind."Stop overreacting, sis. I've always protected you in high school. Want me to start telling you all the stories?"Sure, he protected her from bullies, but he also kept he

    "Really?" Rhea exclaimed on the other side of the video call."Yes, really! I... I don't know what to do. It's driving me nuts," Morticia complained."Can't you just tell him? You've been crushing on him since you were twelve." This wouldn't be the first time Rhea urged her to confess her feelings to Klaus."For the millionth time, it's impossible. He doesn't see me that way; he's way out of my league. Vincent would go crazy once he finds out I think of his Bestfriend like that... I'll just try to bury these feelings," the words felt like a lie on Morticia's lips. Her heart had a mind of its own around that demigod."Oh yeah? And how long have you been trying to kill those feelings?""I don't know... I guess I'll just keep trying," she mumbled. "I hope you're okay. You know we... plan to...""No, it's fine. Washington is way better than here. I knew your mother wouldn't agree to send you to a low-tier school," Rhea said. "But the good part is... you're at the same college as your chil

    'Wet dreams? What does he mean by wet dreams?'Think, Morticia, think. Wet... dreams... Wait, could it be..."Hey!" Her fist flew to his chest. He didn't flinch, not even a little. "Wet dreams? Do I look like a kid who dreams about wetting the bed? Screw you, bonehead!"Klaus's face turned stunned. She doesn't know what wet dreams are. A chuckle tore out of his throat. She's so innocent, and he loved teasing her."You don't look happy to see me, Bunnie. I thought you'd miss me, but I guess I was wrong.""Why would I miss a bonehead like you? Not only do I have my brother to tease me, but now you too. A few seconds ago, you even thought I'd wet my bed," she snapped, her voice just quiet enough not to wake the others.He chuckled. "That's not what I meant...""Whatever... I'm going to bed," she snapped and turned to leave."What about the bowl of ice cream you're craving?" he asked, and she halted.Wait, how does he know?Klaus scoffed and went to get the ice cream for her.

    "Hey, little nerd. Long time, no see," Nica greeted as she sat beside her, while Dimitri sat with Klaus, arms folded."Hey," Morticia greeted awkwardly."If you don't want them here, I can send them away," Klaus said coldly."No, no, it's fine," she shook her head. They'd hate her if she said yes."It's really nice to see you here, Morticia. I can't believe we're going to be attending the same college," Dimitri said, her voice dripping with sarcasm."Right? I can't believe that either," she mumbled, glancing over at Klaus, who was quiet, wearing his usual cold look."How about you come to my birthday party tonight?" Dimitri offered, and Morticia swallowed hard. She was inviting her to a party? Her?Klaus finally looked up. "No, she's not.""Why not? It'll be fun to have her there. You're showing her around, right? She should get to know the college better," Nica chimed in."It's not a place for her. She's not going.""Why are you deciding for me? I can make my own decisions," Morticia

    Morticia's cheeks burned under Klaus' intense gaze. Was this the right thing to do?His expression shifted quickly, replaced by his usual cold demeanor."How do I look?" she asked, excitement clear in her voice."Good," he said with a shrug, and Morticia's face fell. "Let's go," he added, leaving the room first.Good? Just good, after all the effort she put into dressing up?"I don't think he even noticed me," Morticia muttered as Nica drove them to the party. Dimitri and Klaus were in another car, already ahead."Tsk... Sin never tells a girl she looks good. He usually tells them to fuck off. But you, you're different.""That's not the first time he's said I look good," she mumbled. What was the point of all this? Though something felt different this time, she couldn't quite place it.Maybe he only said it to avoid hurting her feelings because she was Vincent's sister.Morticia expected the birthday party to be a typical event, filled with well-wishes and gifts, but it was nothing li

    Morticia managed to get home, though she was shocked to have seen a taxi around at such a late hour. She slammed the door with a light thud after paying the driver.As she entered the house, the taxi driver made a call."I've brought her home, Sin," he said and drove away.Morticia quietly walked into the house. Her mother was sleeping on the couch with the television still on. She switched off the television and covered Ava with a blanket before heading to her own room.The weight of what had happened at the party crushed down on her, and her heart felt like it was ripping apart.She sat on the floor, resting her back against the door, and began to let her emotions out.Why did she have to fall for a jerk like him? She had asked herself this question several times and still got no answer.After crying for a long while, she drew out her diary and wrote:"Dear diary, Klaus has hurt me again. I knew getting into Washington College was a terrible idea. This is going to be hard, but I pro

    Dimitri was beaten until she passed out. Nica and the other girls then took her to the nearby clinic.Klaus didn't care, even though he knew this might cause a stir, especially with Simon.Dimitri was Simon's cousin!The moment he saw the bruises on Morticia, her face wet with tears and her blouse soaked in apple juice, he wanted to end whoever did it.The picture of her pitiful state popped up on the school blog, and immediately, a comment from Vincent's account appeared.~Delete this, or I'll fucking hunt you.~Almost immediately, the post was deleted. Klaus gritted his teeth, frustrated that he hadn't gotten the name of the blogger before it vanished. He'd ask Vincent when he saw him."Ahhh," Morticia winced at the sting on her knee as Klaus helped her treat it."I didn't even put much. Stop being dramatic," he said, his voice cold, still showing his anger.Morticia took a moment and stared at his serious face, watching him as he brought out the bandage to dress her wound. Every si

    Morticia's dorm preparation was finally approved, though her mother didn't love the idea, as she wanted to see her every single day."It'll be fine. I'm sure I'm going to have a really nice roommate," Morticia said to her overreacting mother as they drove to her school."What if she's bad? What if she hurts you or influences you in a bad way?" Ava asked."They won't, and for the millionth time, I'm not a kid. I can handle myself," Morticia sighed, then recalled something. "Right, Mom, what does Morticia mean?""Morticia? Why are you asking about the meaning of your name?" Ava asked."Just curious," Morticia shrugged."I got your name from my favorite movie, The Addams Family. Since we have the last name Addams and Morticia Addams was my favorite character in the movie, I decided to name my daughter after her," Ava shrugged."So, you don't know the meaning?""Nope. It sounds nice, so it should be nice. Go online and search."Morticia didn't like being online. Her phone's purpose was fo

    {Four years later}Montana A man turned to his group of workers, his eyes blazing with anger. "Where is she?!"The workers shrank back nervously, exchanging glances. None of them knew what to say."Are you all deaf?!" he roared."Mr. Miller... she usually comes around 9 a.m., sir," one of them managed to reply awkwardly."What?!" Miller bellowed. "Workers are supposed to be here by 8 a.m.! Who does she think she is?! Just because she won Best Designer Award in a year doesn't mean she can act however she wants!""Sir, we can ask Miss Rhea from the tech department to contact her," the worker suggested awkwardly."Then go get her. Now!"Soon, Rhea was brought to the office. She was surprised to see Manager Miller in the company but quickly realized why she was called.Her stubborn friend hadn't arrived."Sir, I'll call her," Rhea said, excusing herself to make the call.-On a white bed draped with a brown duvet, a phone resting on it rang, flashing the name Bestie.Morticia, wrapped in

    "Klaus!" Morticia snapped when he remained silent. "Are you not going to defend yourself? What is going on?""What if I slept with her, huh?" he asked, making her frown."What?" she whispered, her voice trembling."She came over when she heard about my mom's death and wanted to console me. We just... ended up in bed. I'm sorry, but I needed it," he explained, looking away."That's a lie. Whatever you're doing, stop," her voice broke in an unimaginable way. "You don't have to keep doing this.""What?""You're trying to push me away, aren't you? You're hiding something..."Klaus sighed. "Can't you just wake up? You found an exposed woman on my bed-doesn't that ring a bell? I miss my old life, Morty. I miss being free, not stuck with just you. Tasha reminded me of that."Morticia searched his face for a clue that he was lying, but his expression was cold, hard, and unforgiving."That's a lie," she croaked in a whisper. "You love me."Klaus placed a hand on her shoulder, his gaze piercing

    As Klaus got to his room, he spotted Tasha sitting on his bed with a smile. She was wearing only a robe."Get the fuck out," he demanded coldly."Why?" Tasha asked, spreading her legs for him, exposing herself. "Don't you want this? You've always wanted it back in high school days."Klaus simply stepped out; there was enough room in the mansion anyway. He was just going to find another room. Tasha quickly followed suit.But as Klaus entered the next room, with the thought of slamming the door in her face, he met the unexpected. The moment he opened the door, he felt a sudden stab in his stomach. It was an injection, pierced into him by Katie.His eyes widened as he pushed her away. He quickly removed the injection and glared at her."What the fuck did you..." He paused, feeling an intense sensation surging through him. His body felt hot, pain growing in his abdomen. Katie smirked at him.Drugs."I'm only trying to help you, Klaus. Helping you get Morticia out of the way. It's up to yo

    Katie continued "I was raped by their Mafia Lord, became pregnant, and was tossed aside like a used côndom. I didn't tell my friends, Josephine and Ava, about the rape because they judged me when I shared the news of my pregnancy," Katie explained calmly, capturing the attention of both men."That's why I left, disappearing from my friends' lives. The Moore family had a huge reputation in the Mafia world. The leader, Don Alex, was wary of his father, the former Don. He respected and feared him. I did my research during my pregnancy and went straight to the old man, reporting everything. Alex tried to deny it, but I had evidence. Since Alex had no wife, I became his until I gave birth to Gideon. Alex's father gave me a chance to return home. I went back to my friends and saw how well they had been doing. I never told them about the Moore family because I wanted to keep my identity a secret, even though they wouldn't stop asking." Katie paused to take a sip of her wine and clear her th

    As her threat hung in the air, Klaus tried to process all that was happening. Katie was Void, the mysterious figure who had been using him and Vincent like puppets.It was a woman. A woman now married to his father."You're Void. How?" Klaus couldn't help but ask, his voice cracking in disbelief.Katie shrugged. "Why is it so hard to believe?""Did you kill her?" Klaus asked, his vision blurring with tears of anger. "Did you kill my mom?"Katie rolled her eyes. "What if I did?"Klaus grabbed her by the collar. "You know I can kill you right now, don't you? I've got blades of mine, and the scene I crave is the sight of your still-beating heart separated from your body.""Klaus," Finn stepped closer, but Katie raised her hand, stopping him."Before you do that, Klaus, I need you to understand that I have every life of the people you care about in the palm of my hand. Once my people hear of my death, they'll start by ending the life of your second mother, Ava. It would be wonderful for h

    "So, how's Klaus?" Rhea asked Morticia as they spent time together."I..." Morticia sighed, taking a deep breath. "I don't know.""What do you mean?" Rhea asked."We haven't talked," Morticia replied. It had been more than a week since Josephine's death, and the last time she saw Klaus was at the funeral. He left before the ceremony was over.She had searched for him at his apartment the next day, but found no sign of him either. The only place remaining was Mr. Finn's mansion, here in Washington.Rhea sighed. "I hope he's okay then. What about your mother?""She's watching movies more than she can handle. She's trying to distract herself. My brother is taking care of her," Morticia croaked. Everything felt as though it was falling apart since Josephine's death.Rhea reached out to hold her hand, giving her an assuring squeeze."Everything will be fine, okay? Perhaps he's just trying to get himself together and doesn't want to hurt you," Rhea said."That's what Vincent said. He said h

    Morticia staggered backward, her head spinning at the scene. Oh heavens! This should be a dream!Josephine can't be dead. This was surreal. The doctor mentioned she was responding, and her chance of survival was slowly rising.How could she have died just forty minutes before her last surgery?Klaus was unconscious, lying on the bed. Finn had hurt his head pretty badly, and the nurse was treating him.Wait. Ava.Morticia spun around, her eyes scanning the hall with no sign of her mother."Mom?" she panicked."She's in the ward at the end of the hall," Katie responded."What!""She passed out after hearing the news of her death."Morticia spun, rushing toward the ward. There, on the bed, Ava had an oxygen mask on her face, unconscious."She will be fine, miss. She just went through a shock and will wake up tomorrow morning," the nurse assured.Morticia burst into loud cries, sliding to the floor, her fingers tangling in her hair as she pulled it in frustration.It was too much!

    "Klaus, you have to try this," she said, bouncing with excitement as they stopped before the game Dance Upon Revolution.Klaus crossed his arms, towering over the machine with a skeptical look. "You really expect me to jump around on that thing?""Yes! It's fun!" Morticia grinned, pointing at the screen. "The goal is simple: step on the arrows as they light up to match the rhythm of the song. Easy.""That's literally jumping, not dancing," Klaus muttered, his brow furrowing."It's not about looking cool; it's about not falling off the platform."Klaus huffed, stepping onto the platform reluctantly. Morticia joined him on the second pad, cracking her knuckles like a seasoned pro."Let's start with an easy song," she said, scrolling through the menu. She picked a cheerful, mid-tempo tune.The music began, and the arrows on the screen started scrolling upward in time with the beat. Morticia's feet moved fluidly, hitting each step with precision. Klaus, meanwhile, hesitated, stomping awkw
