Zack knew he needed to speak out against this injustice, but fear and doubt held him back. Everyone in the room witnessed this pivotal moment, where courage and solidarity were expected to emerge. Emily, amidst the attention focused on her, felt the weight grow heavier but also a glimmer of hope. She wished that Zack would display the strength he had and change the course of this situation.
In the tension surrounding them, hope for Zack's courage became a desire for all present. They wanted to see change, not just for Emily, but to prove that no one deserved to be treated poorly by anyone, especially by those who should be role models. At that moment, with all eyes on Zack, hope and tension intertwined in a defining moment.They waited for Zack's action for a while, but what they hoped for did not happen at all. Instead, Zack changed his demeanor and acted gently toward his stepmother. His sudden shift disappointed the other three Alphas, who had hoped to see ZackZack began to explain very calmly, trying to provide a reasonable rationale. "So last night we partied too late. Emily was intentionally here to serve us, including making it easier for us to command her without having to call her repeatedly and shout for her to come back here. So, I think her presence here did not disrupt our party and actually made it easier for us, because anytime we could ask her to help prepare what we needed last night."He continued, "Because it was so late and we were so tired and sleepy, we unwittingly fell asleep here together. So, Mother, don't think too much and harbor bad suspicions about what you just saw."Zack's explanation flowed clearly and logically, creating a slightly calmer atmosphere. However, behind his words, there was still a lingering anxiety in Emily's heart. She felt as if all her hopes for genuine support from Zack had evaporated, even though the explanation seemed rational.Amber listened intently, her face s
The planned rebellion and resistance by Zack and his friends were drawing closer to the big day. They had carefully formulated a strategy, preparing everything to fight against the injustices they had felt for so long. The plan was to be revealed to Emily during her free moments so that she could join in the predetermined scenario.However, things were not going as smoothly as they had hoped. Amber, with all her demands, kept Emily trapped in various tasks since her return. Amber seemed to provide no opportunity for Emily to rest or relax. The tasks assigned were diverse and time-consuming, ranging from household chores to helping Amber with her own plans. This clearly frustrated the four Alphas, who felt confused about how to approach and call Emily.They hardly had any free time with Emily, and every time they tried to talk, there was always an interruption from Amber or a waiting task. Observing from a distance, they realized how difficult this situation was. Th
Chapter Emily had just finished her first task. Relief washed over her for a moment, but that feeling was quickly replaced by the memory of Amber's message asking to meet her after all her work was done. Even though Emily knew the truth about herself and her original position, a deep feeling still bound her. She felt as if she was still a slave to Amber.This mentality was incredibly difficult to shake off. Every time she tried to consider herself more than just a servant, the shadow of long and complicated attachments haunted her. Years of experience made her feel trapped, as if chained to invisible bonds. This feeling disturbed her thoughts and emotions, making her feel alienated from herself.Emily knew she had the potential for more, but fear and doubt always crept in. This attachment was not only physical but also emotional. Amber had been a part of her life for a long time, and although there was a desire for freedom, Emily found it hard to sever the tie
After trying to calm her thoughts, Emily began to step away from Amber's door. She knew that this decision was not an easy one. However, the urge to protect Zack and his friends was far stronger than the fear gnawing at her. She had to be their voice to warn and protect them from potential dangers that could be lurking.As Emily left the place, her steps felt lighter. The anxiety that had initially troubled her was replaced by a determination to act. With every step, she moved closer to revealing the truth, and although the challenges ahead might be difficult, she was ready to face anything for Zack and his friends' safety.In her heart, Emily prayed that this information would be enough to open their eyes. She wanted Zack to know that there were people who cared and were ready to fight for him. And even though Amber seemed to have a clever plan, Emily was confident that with courage and unity, they could face it together."Yes, I have to tell Zack and the
"Thank you, Amber. I appreciate it," Emily replied, trying to keep the atmosphere calm. She knew she had to get out of this situation and find a way to tell Zack without raising further suspicion.After several seconds that felt like an eternity, Emily decided to leave. "Well then, I’ll get back to my work," she said, trying to fully divert Amber's attention. She hoped to escape the room before Amber had a chance to dig deeper."Alright, have a nice day," Amber replied, but Emily could feel her sharp gaze following every step she took. The tension between them still hung in the air, and Emily knew she had to leave quickly.After closing the door behind her, Emily took a deep breath. She felt relieved to be out of that pressuring situation. However, thoughts of what she had overheard continued to haunt her.This time, it seemed very easy for Emily to lie. Previously, she always appeared shaky when she had to speak untruthfully. But now she could co
Zack and his friends approached eagerly, as if they understood that something important needed to be discussed. Emily felt the tension in the air, but the excitement to share this information was far greater. She knew this was a crucial moment that could change the course of the situation."I have important information," Emily whispered, ensuring her voice was not heard by anyone else. Her eyes sparkled with urgency as she began explaining what she had overheard from Amber. She detailed Amber's plans to match Zack with Connie and how this could potentially endanger them all.Zack and his friends listened intently, noting every word Emily spoke. They also wanted to inform Emily about the strategies they had agreed upon to face this situation. By sharing information, they felt stronger and more prepared to handle whatever might happen.Emily realized how vital this communication was. Every detail shared could be the key to thwarting Amber's plans. As they ta
The four Alphas felt the same tension. They whispered to each other, trying to strategize on how to divert Amber's attention. However, with Amber sitting comfortably and reading the newspaper, all their efforts seemed futile. They had to find a way to create an opportunity for Emily to talk to them without interruption.With uncertainty looming, they continued to monitor the situation, hoping there would be an opening to exploit. Emily, on the other hand, felt the need to act quickly before the situation worsened. She knew that time was not on their side, and every second that passed could mean a lost opportunity."What's wrong, Emily?" Amber asked while reading the newspaper, her tone sounding enigmatic. The sudden question caught Emily off guard, and she immediately swallowed hard, feeling the tension envelop her. It was as if time had stopped; she felt frozen and silent, unsure of how to respond.Emily's mind raced, trying to find the right words to res
Amber immediately approached Emily after she finished her tasks. It seemed that Amber had been watching Emily’s every move even without being visible to her. The four Alphas observed from their hiding place, feeling the tension surrounding the situation."I told you that Amber wasn’t really gone, didn’t I? She’s still keeping an eye on Emily’s movements even if we can’t see her," Marko whispered, his voice full of concern.Emily sensed Amber's arrival and, unwittingly, the tension between them resurfaced. The four Alphas remained hidden, watching closely, worried that this situation could develop into something more complicated. They knew that the meeting between Emily and Amber could potentially change everything, and they had to be ready to act if needed.Against this tense backdrop, Emily tried to stay calm. She knew that Amber’s presence could not be ignored and that there had to be a strategy to face this situation. Zack nodded in agreement, adding, "
Amber's eyes sparkled, and without realizing it, tears streamed down her cheeks. Her gaze appeared stiff and straight ahead, as if trapped in such immense and hard-to-explain feelings. A mix of hope and longing filled her heart as she recalled all the memories that had once existed.Meanwhile, the others were stunned and silent, affected by the meaningful words of Amber's ex-husband. The atmosphere became quiet, only the sound of heartbeats could be heard, as if everyone felt the tension and hope enveloping the room.Amber then directed her gaze to Zack and then to Emily. In that look, there was a deep affection and a profound fear of loss. She knew that their father's presence could change everything, and the fear of losing something precious began to cloud her thoughts.Zack and Emily felt the same emotions. In the midst of confusion and doubt, they sought support from each other. Everything that happened seemed like a turning point, and the three of the
Feeling compelled to help, Emily took the initiative. She placed her right palm on Zack's forehead, trying to send the remaining positive energy within her. With full concentration, she focused on her intention to revive Zack, hoping to reach his soul trapped in darkness.However, as time passed, Emily began to feel weak and almost overwhelmed. The energy left in her was dwindling, but her determination to help Zack did not waver. She still managed to hold on, fighting against the fatigue that engulfed her.Finally, after a while, signs of Zack beginning to regain consciousness became apparent. Slowly, his eyes began to move, and his breathing started to regulate. Hope flickered back to life in the hearts of everyone witnessing this moment. They knew that Emily’s struggle was not in vain, and they all united in hope to see Zack return to a better state."Emily," Marko said, looking worried about Emily's weakening condition."Look, Zack is waking u
As debris fell and the noise continued to echo, hope for recovery felt increasingly distant. The three Alphas kept trying, but with no clear results. In this chaos, they realized that to save Zack, they needed to find a way to reach the remnants of his humanity before it was too late."What do we do now?" Stefan asked, confused. "Unite our strengths!" Marko commanded. "Let’s do it!" Freddy urged excitedly. Jennie and Lucy fell, affected by the wild energy radiating from Zack’s hands. The impact of his overflowing anger sent them tumbling, losing their balance amidst the chaos. Connie’s father was also caught in the fallout, falling in confusion and fear.Meanwhile, Connie and her mother lay unconscious, trapped in a worrisome state. The atmosphere in the room grew increasingly grim, with the noise continuing to echo. Amber, in a panic, crawled backward, trying to find a safe hiding place from the threatening chaos.Emily stood frozen
Stefan moved out from his hiding place, followed by Freddy, who couldn’t stay still. The two of them tried to approach the increasingly heated situation, wanting to support Zack and perhaps help calm his anger. Amber, Connie, and Connie’s family and friends looked increasingly shocked by the appearance of Emily and Zack’s friends in this tense situation.Their reactions reflected confusion and disbelief. It was clearly difficult for them to believe that their movements had been monitored by hidden spies whose presence was unpredictable. The situation, which initially seemed orderly, had now turned into chaos, with everyone trying to understand what was happening.That moment brought deeper tension. Everyone felt the impact of Zack's anger and the uncertainty enveloping the room. Emily and her friends tried to manage the increasingly difficult situation, while Stefan and Freddy worked to navigate their steps without worsening things.Amber and Connie exchan
Amber, confused by Zack’s sudden behavior, asked, "What do you mean, Zack?" Confusion and worry enveloped her thoughts. She felt embarrassed by Zack’s statement, which had shocked everyone, including herself. In her heart, Amber felt unsure how to mend this situation. She saw Zack’s expression full of anger and rejection and felt trapped between her desire to support Zack and her responsibility toward Connie’s family. The tension in the room increased, and Amber realized that this moment could have a significant impact on their relationship. Quickly, Amber tried to find a way to diffuse the atmosphere. She knew that communication was key, but right now, words felt difficult to say. In her mind, she hoped Zack could explain further so they could find a way out of this complicated situation. All eyes were on Zack, who stood with a sharp gaze. His hands clenched tighter, and his face grew redder, signaling that the emotions within him were r
Without waiting for Zack’s confirmation, Amber began to help him. She quickly grabbed some suitable clothes and started tidying up Zack's appearance. Zack, feeling helpless, could only resign himself to the situation. He tried to dodge, but with Amber’s attentive presence, he had no other choice.Amber continued to dress Zack, ensuring he looked neat and ready to join the family. The process went quickly, and although Zack felt a bit awkward, he knew that Amber only wanted to help him. With each touch Amber made, Zack began to accept that his mother’s support was an important part of this moment.After a few minutes, Amber finally finished getting Zack ready. She looked at her work and smiled with satisfaction, happy to have helped Zack look good for this special moment. Amber let out a long sigh, feeling relieved after completing her task. "Finally done," she said, feeling satisfied that Zack was ready. However, on the other hand, Zack’s expression looked annoyed,
Joyfully, they all began to enter the house, feeling the warmth of the genuine welcome. Amber guided them to the room that had been prepared, where a large table was already filled with various delicious dishes. The aroma of mouthwatering food filled the air, creating an even more delightful atmosphere.The food presented was diverse, ranging from appetizers to desserts. Each plate was filled with tempting colors, reflecting Amber’s efforts in preparing this event. The guests exchanged glances, enchanted by the deliciousness awaiting them. Joy began to envelop the room as they saw the lovingly prepared food.Amber felt relieved and happy to see everyone starting to enjoy this moment. She wanted to ensure that every guest felt valued and comfortable. With a wide smile, she made sure everyone had a cozy seat and offered drinks to accompany the meal.Once everyone was seated, the atmosphere became even more lively. They began to chat, laugh, and share stories
Swiftly and cautiously, they managed to hide behind a door and in the corners of the room, ensuring they could see what was happening without being detected. Emily felt her heart race as she saw Amber approach Zack, who was still standing there, seemingly unaware of the danger lurking nearby.At the same time, the atmosphere in the room felt increasingly tense. Amber finally reached Zack and, with a relieved tone, said, "I’ve been looking for you, and here you are, Zack." Her expression showed that she was happy to find Zack, unaware that the situation around them was far more complicated.Zack, still stunned, didn’t know how to react. He looked around, sensing the tension in the air. Emily and her friends held their breath, worried that their cover would be blown. They tried to remain calm, even as the situation grew more urgent.Amber, with a smile on her face, seemed unsuspecting. She had not realized that everyone was trying to keep their distance, and
Emily felt the tension simmering in the air, remembering that all eyes were now on her. Zack asked anxiously, "What’s wrong, Emily? What’s happening, and what don’t I know?" He looked very curious, as if the information she was about to share could change everything.Stefan, eager not to be left out, urged her to speak up. "Yeah, Emily, tell us quickly before Amber gets back here!" Stefan's voice was filled with urgency, showing how important this information was to them.Freddy added his encouragement, "Yes, Emily, come on!" He clearly wanted to hear what might be the key to this situation.Emily felt the pressure mounting. She knew they were all relying on her to provide clarity. In her heart, she struggled between fear and responsibility. Every passing second felt heavier, and she realized that time was running out.Although she wanted to explain immediately, the words seemed difficult to articulate.
