“You’re always like that! What’s even your right to dictate what I do? Why don’t you look at yourself first before minding my fucking business?”I saw how his jaw clenched in anger. He was suppressing himself from venting out, but boy, was I just so mad right now that I didn’t care if he went out of
“Della… Where are you? Please be safe. I’ll be waiting for you in the flower room. Promise I’ll explain everything to you. Just… see me. Please.”After reading his message, I angrily tossed my phone away from me on the bed and sat up.I thought about it for a long time before I finally decided to se
Della’s POVI never felt so drained before. There were still tears on my cheeks when I heard my phone pinged with a notification. I grabbed it from the bedside table and looked at my screen, only to see that it was a message from Stella.With irritation, I opened it. “Hey, Della, I am surprised that
“That’s great news,” I answered nonchalantly.“Are you okay?” he suddenly asked, making me momentarily stop breathing.“Of course I am. Why would you ask that?” I asked, trying to sound chirpy.I heard him sigh. “No need to pretend. I can hear how horse your voice is right now and that obvious prete
(Kylian's POV)"What the fuck was that?" I exasperatedly shouted as I pushed Stella's hand away from my arms.I was clenching my jaws and menacingly glaring at her. My chest was also moving fast as my breathing became fast and shallow.I couldn't believe that she kissed me! How dare she?"I was just
My eyebrows furrowed with a mix of irritation. “This…”As if seeing the changes in my emotion, Stella spoke, “My father told me that he and your father had talked about this agreement beforehand. All that’s left is for you to sign it.”Every turn of the page that I do, the more skeptical I become.I
“Finally!” I said with rejoicing and relief.“Here it is. Take it,” I told Stella while handling her papers.After accepting it, she said, “Thanks.”Though I pushed hard to keep the negotiation fast, it still took far too long than I imagined.As smart as she seemed, Stella seemed to be uncharacteri
Albert’s POVI was about to enter my car when I heard one of my men running after me. With great urgency, he caught up to me.“Sir, Prince Jackson is on the landline,” he said, which took my attention.Looking back at him with menacing eyes, I asked, “Did you call him?”“I…”“Did you?” I shouted! I
‘Not while I’m here,’ I silently vowed to myself, feeling my heart clenched with pain.“Della!”I was jolted back into reality when I heard Albert’s booming voice echoing in my ears, paired with Aaden's hard tap on my shoulder.Blinking a couple of times, I was shocked by everything I was thinking a
Della’s POVThough I didn’t sleep well last night, I still woke up early and prepared everything I needed to visit the ruby mines.“Mommy!” Aaden ran toward me as soon as he saw me entering the dining room for breakfast.Instinctively, I bent down, caught him, and carried him in my arms. Pinching hi
Della’s POVFrustrated, I leaned back to my office chair and dropped the list of personnel files that Sapphire had gathered for the laboratory.I pinched the bridge of my nose and took a couple of deep breaths to calm myself down before I leaned on my table again, elbows on it, hands clasped togethe
Kylian’s POVI didn’t know when or how it started, but it had been like this for years. The name Flora had become like a stubborn splinter stuck in my heart. Every time I heard it, a sharp, burning irritation would curse through my being.Taking a deep breath, I turned around and sent him a sharp ga
She went silent for a while, and I saw her demeanor changing through the monitor.“Do you understand?” Henry pushed through.“Yes…”“Just escort them safely. That’s your sole purpose in meeting them,” he said sharply.“Yes, I’ve escorted them out safely–”Henry looked at me as if to see if I was alr
Kylian’s POVI went to the Shadow Hush, a secluded and under-bankruptcy bar I found, bought, and remodeled. Just as it’s name, it’s a well-hidden place and a perfect location to unveil secrets without fear of being discovered.Unbeknownst to them, it’s one of my critical information centers in Wakel
“You know, I’ve always wondered… what kind of history do you have with Mr. K? He’s not someone who takes notice of people easily,” she asked.Merely tilting my head and feigning mild amusement, I asked with a raised brow, “Shouldn’t you be asking him that question instead?”How would I know what’s g
Della’s POVActing shocked, I stared nonchalantly at Rylee and blinked a couple of times as though I was in deep confusion before I asked, “What do you mean, Princess?”Rylee, utterly unfazed by my question, turned to face me and crossed her arms over her chest. She leaned her weight on the right si
My jaw tightened, and my hands curled into fists. Stepping forward, I replied in an icy voice, “Krendrell isn’t the manager of this place anymore, Mason. You should learn to restrain yourself before I report this disgusting behavior of yours to the Lycan Princess.”Unfazed, Mason hysterically laughe
