The news of Cassius and Indigo's engagement being called off spread like wildfire, reaching every corner of Australia and beyond.

Netizens were left wondering about the reason. No explanation was provided, but it was obvious that this was Mr. King's decision.

Just when they thought the cold Mr. King had finally found a woman, the engagement was called off.

"This is unbelievable! It still feels like I'm dreaming, Tatie. What could be the reason? It's so shocking!" While Jolene rambled about the news, Tatiana’s expression was slightly disturbed.

What could have made Cassius decide such a thing? Was it because of her? That can’t be possible.

Her mind drifted to the kiss, and her face turned red. Jolene noticed it.

"Did you blush because you knew the reason was you?" Jolene asked teasingly.

"I'm seriously considering removing that tongue of yours."

"I heard from Catelyn that you spent the night at his mansion..."

"Nothing happened!" Tatiana almost yelled, her face turning red.

    The woman before Cassius broke into a cold sweat after hearing his order. She hadn't signed up for a torture like this."Please...""Do what I say, or you'll wish you had," Cassius's piercing blue eyes seemed to scream, 'You're doomed!'The woman looked at Tatiana, silently begging for pity.Tatiana stared back with a cold expression, clearly waiting for her to follow through. The woman’s heart sank—her face might fall off!"Are you testing my patience?" Cassius’s cold voice snapped her back to reality."One," he began counting. If he left, her punishment would only worsen. The others watching gave her pitying looks.Even the two girls who had insulted Tatiana trembled secretly in fear."Two."The woman quickly knelt beside the bowl of hot water. She dipped her face in briefly, and immediately, her scream echoed through the whole place. The pain was far worse than she had imagined.Watching the woman tremble in pain brought a small, satisfied smile to Cassius’s face. He then returned

    After making several mistakes, the director in charge of Indigo's shoot sighed."What’s the problem, Indigo? Are you not feeling well, dear?" he asked gently.Indigo immediately apologized. "I'm sorry. I'm okay, just not feeling too well.""You know we can't delay this shoot. That would be a huge loss for us, ma'am. If you can't do it, please let me know," he said.Indigo knew he was trying to hold back from yelling at her because of her status in the industry. She had never been like this before, making several mistakes."I'll give it another try, Director. I'm sorry," Indigo said, and the director nodded.After her shoot, her assistant rushed to her with a bottle of water. She had almost been replaced because of her mood."Do I have another schedule for today?" she asked after drinking enough water."No, ma'am. The weekend is clear too," her assistant replied."Alright," Indigo said, noticing the stares of others. They quickly averted their gaze when it met hers. She knew what they

  • One Night With Mr. King   Chapter 29: Hurt

    Cassius had thought about how he would punish her when he arrived. She was stubborn, disobedient, and his crazy little rebel.So many thoughts dove into his head the moment he saw her draped in just a towel. Fucking perfect.His eyes scrutinized her from head to toe. Her wet hair glued to her face made her look incredibly hot, her skin begging for his attention, and he couldn’t stop himself from kissing those wet lips that had him addicted. The thought of her driving him crazy made him kiss her harder, demanding her response.When she didn’t respond, he went to the next level, pulling up the towel only to find that she had been resisting. She told him to stop, which only added to his anger.He wanted to pin her to the bed and drive some sense into her, but that would be moving too fast.Instead, he held her neck with his other hand and whispered dirty words in her ear. She finally spilled out what she yearned for: "Please, fuck me with your fingers."He drove one of his fingers into h

    While they discussed Zero, Tatiana couldn't help but feel helpless. She had thought Cassius would offer her help last night, but he never said anything."I'll go myself," Tatiana said, and the others looked up at her."I'll go with you. I’ve got some stripper moves," Stacy smirked."I'll keep watch," Jolene said, and they all looked at Parker, who sighed."I hope we're not going to die, babes. I’ve got a date with my boyfriend tomorrow, and I don’t want to come back with bruises," he said."It's not a must, Parker, you can—""I'm going too. I never said I wouldn't go!" Parker exclaimed hastily. "Besides, it'll be fun," he shrugged."Let's go get that bastard," Tatiana said, and they all nodded.Paisley’s eyes were closed as the makeup artist worked on her face. She was clad in a sexy gown for the movie project she was working on.Getting up, she went to meet the others."You look stunning, ma'am," the director greeted as Paisley flung her hair to one side."Let’s get started," she sai

    Paisley's downfall went viral and became the top-searched news online. Netizens threw insults, demanding an explanation.This incident only brought more attention to Tatiana. However, the media still remained curious about the child. Just then, a picture surfaced—a picture of Tatiana and Dylan at the park."Aww, you both look so cute," Jolene commented. "I miss little lion so much. But, who sneaked up on you like this? Definitely someone with a death wish."Tatiana had always wanted to keep a low profile. It had been that way even back in the day.Even when scandals surrounded her, she remained calm and used that opportunity to build her fame. She had learned the craft of making her enemies stepping stones—until she fell in love with Nathan. She fell deeply.They were friends at first, with Nathan trying to make her fall in love until he succeeded. His dreams and hers were similar—to build a great empire in the entertainment industry, and to focus on this, she had to quit acting.Tati

  • One Night With Mr. King   Chapter 32: Zero

    Zero, a mafia underground dealer in the world of entertainment industry. His work was simple. Pay and he'll deliver what you want. He was a mafia, a drug dealer, ruthless in his ways.Staring at the strippers on stage, his eyes fixed on one particular woman. A definition of sexy. Her curve made his skin tingled with interest.However, the look on his face was unreadable as if he had something rilling in his mind."The pink haired woman," he answered his assistant, who bowed in reply."How would you like me to please you, my Lord?" The pink haired woman whispered, trailing her hand down his member. She felt it hard and ready, begging to be touched.Zero trailed his hand to her hair, his lips parted as he felt her finger rub against his bulge. "Anyhow you want it, my lady,""Shall we play a game then?" She whispered and buried her face on the crook of her neck. "I'll do the touching."Zero rolled his tongue in, and a dark smirk crept his lips."How about I do the touching?" He asked in

    Jolene, who heard the shocking confession, froze, her eyes widening like the moon.“B…big B…oss?” she stuttered, her face paling.“Jolene?” Cassius’s voice sounded from her speaker. She had forgotten she had already called him. “Is everything alright?” he inquired.She couldn’t reply and just ended the call, her hand trembling. She shook her head.“That can’t be right,” her lips trembled.__Meanwhile, the room turned dead silent after a word. One could hear a pin drop.Mr. King?!Cassius King?!The father of her son?!Tatiana felt the world around her slow down as Zero’s words sank in. Her mind went haywire, her face paled, and her heart pounded hard.Not Cassius of all people! He’s lying! Zero is lying!“Your look shows you do not believe me—” Zero scoffed. “What did I expect, anyway? Of course, no one will believe the King that dominates is a devil in disguise…”“You’re lying,” Tatiana retorted, her voice barely audible. She was already tearing up. This was just too much for her to

    "You've been running your mouth too much, Zade," Cassius called him by his real name.Zero laughed, even with the pain coursing through his mouth. He glanced over at Cassius."It's been a long time since I've seen your Devil. What a breath of fresh air.""You killed Isabella Wallington. Why?"Zero laughed harder, a sound that made Cassius's jaw clench with anger. He moved swiftly to grab Zero's collar."Spill it out, Zade. You’re not going to like my next move," he growled."C'mon, Cassius, I know you well. Stop pretending to be so innocent, like you've never had blood on your hands before..."In the next moment, a knife was at Zero's neck, drawing out a small trickle of blood."I don't mind adding another," Cassius glared."You know damn well you can't kill me. I won't spill, even if I die. That's just how I roll.""It must be someone pretty powerful, huh? Or are you just trying to piss me off?""Both," Zero chuckled, and Cassius let go of him."Well, that would be pretty fun. Your d

    “Rosa,” Zade approached her quietly. She sat alone on the hotel rooftop, gazing up at the night sky.“How did you find me?” Rosa asked, her expression blank.“I figured you'd be somewhere quiet, probably with a nice view and fresh air. The rooftop seemed like the best bet,” Zade explained. “Care if I join you?”“As long as you don’t become a burden, help yourself.”Rosa had always been the one who smiled the most in the clan. She was cheerful, helpful, talkative—everyone loved her. Talented. Beauty with brains.But after Viktor’s death...Zade hadn’t seen even a glimpse of a smile on her face.It had been over a week since the war ended. Leonard was now being held in a psychiatric facility known as the Phantom Cell, secured with high-tech restraints. That guy would be tortured until his last breath.Not the violent kind of torture, but the kind that would haunt him. Trapped between walls, injected with things that would slowly drive him insane.Rafeal had said Leonard was saved agains

    Angie Hales. That name was carved into the gravestone. The yard was the place where all the dead mobsters were buried. Rafeal approached, placing a bunch of flowers on the stone, his expression blank, but inside he was breaking. He hadn't seen her death coming. Even though she had made a grave mistake that caused the clan to suffer, Angie had been his friend ever since he joined the clan. She was brave, smart, and always there to calm him with her words. Even now, he still found it hard to believe Angie was truly behind it… Rosa walked to stand beside Rafeal, her face unreadable, but she was breaking inside too. “I shouldn’t have told her to die after the mission,” Rosa said, taking a deep breath to steady her nerves. “I regret my words that day.” “It’s not your fault,” Rafeal said. Rosa nodded, understanding what Rafeal meant. “She was my best friend.” “She paid her debt,” Rafeal mumbled. Memories of Angie surfaced, striking Rosa’s heart. “Still… I hope she fin

    Several days passed, and Milena didn't leave Rafeal’s side for a second. She watch the doctor feed and treat him occasionally, read him stories and watched him sleep until her own eyes shut.Three days had passed, and Milena grew worried, missing him so badly. She missed his voice, his smile, his touch, and the way he made her feel.Wake up soon, Rafeal.The doctor mentioned his body was still healing and that it would take time before he regains consciousness.Milena rested her head beside him, taking his hand into hers and falling asleep like that. She loved doing so—she could sense even the slightest movement from him.The sun rose from its horizon, casting a warm glow over the city.Milena stirred in her sleep, releasing a light moan. She looked up, and shock rippled through her.She was lying on the couch, and the bed was empty."Rafeal!" she gasped, shoving off the sheet that covered her one side of her and bolting to the bed. "Where did he go? He can't be up! Did the doctor tra

    Milena blinked in shock, still frozen in place as her limbs refused to listen to her.Finally met her? Why would the great Tatiana Wallington be anticipating meeting her?As if reading her thoughts, Tatiana spoke again in that smooth voice.“We've heard about you, dear.”Milena’s legs wobbled. “Good things, I hope,” she muttered under her breath. She glanced at Cassius, who still had his sharp gaze fixed on her.Then she bowed deeply, her head almost touching her knees.“Nice to really meet you too, Mr. and Mrs. King,” she straightened up and flashed them a nervous smile as Cassius gave her an acknowledging nod.“Rafeal told me about you guys too,” Milena added.The Ward's door slid open, and Zade walked in as well, standing beside her. Milena flashed him a glare as if asking, *Why didn't you tell me they were here?*Zade gave her a replying look too. *You didn't give me a chance; how am I supposed to do that?*Milena sighed defeatedly, knowing he was right. Tatiana offered the empty

    Milena snapped awake with a gasp, her eyes meeting an unfamiliar room. She was surrounded by white walls—too bright, too sterile. The ceiling spun above her for a moment before everything began to settle.Her heart pounded in her chest as she pushed herself up, the hospital sheets sliding off her trembling body. Her hands instinctively clutched the fabric at her chest, panic crawling up her throat as her eyes darted around the place.“Rafeal…”Her voice came out as a whisper, hoarse and broken.Memories surged in—his limp body in her arms, the flatline sound, the doctors shouting.She swung her legs off the bed, nearly collapsing from the dizziness that hit her. But she didn’t care. Her feet touched the cold floor, and she forced herself up, dragging her weak body to the door.She yanked it open.A nurse turned at the sound, startled. “Ma’am, please—you need to lie down, you’re not—”“Where is he?” Milena demanded, voice trembling but full of desperation. “Where is Rafeal?”"Ma’am, yo

    While Milena cradled Rafael's unconscious body, Angie ran to Rosa's side and saw the scene. Just like Rosa, her body froze in place, but she quickly recovered, pulling out an injection from her gear and running towards them.She shoved it onto Rafael's lap and injected him, then checked on his state."He is not breathing," Milena sobbed, her whole body trembling. "Rafael is not breathing!"Angie immediately lifted him despite the exhaustion from searching for the antidote clouding her senses. She carried him out, and Milena struggled to follow.She was drained, her bones threatening to give up, darkness slipping into her mind, and she almost fell, but Rosa caught her.Zade appeared too, shocked at the scene. He was covered in blood and sweat; it seemed they had been fighting off the men outside.He rushed to help Milena, taking her from Rosa and leading her out.However, Rosa paused and glanced at unconscious Leonard, her eyes dangerously cold as deadly intent rose within them.Angie

    Milena watched them clash like two storms colliding.No hesitation. No holding back.Rafael was a blur—faster than Leonard remembered. Every strike was brutal, precise, like he’d been waiting for this fight his entire life.Their fists met, their bones cracked, and their snarls echoed like monsters in a cage.Both were skilled; no one would know who was stronger among the brothers.Leonard went for Rafael’s throat with a wild hook, but Rafael ducked and slammed his elbow into Leonard’s ribs, sending him staggering back and coughing blood.Leonard smirked, wiping the blood off his face with the back of his hand. “That all you’ve got, little brother?”Rafael didn’t answer. He spun low and swept Leonard’s legs, sending him crashing to the floor. Rafael pounced, fists flying, hammering into Leonard’s jaw over and over.Blood splattered across the floor, warm and slick. Leonard twisted, caught Rafael’s arm, and flipped him—hard.Rafael slammed onto his back with a groan but rolled to his f

    Oxford’s fingers flew over his keyboard, trying to find a way to connect with his allies. He needed someone to back him up.Gunshots echoed everywhere. It was no longer just one man with a sniper—more had come to attack them.He already sensed that Leonard and his men were cornered. But no matter how many times Oxford tried, he couldn’t get through.He had another method of connecting with his allies and requesting help, but access kept being denied. Were his allies under attack too?Each time he tried to reach them, someone—or something—kept blocking him out. A hacker? Fuck. He wasn’t that good at this stuff.“Where’s Zinnia?!” Oxford barked at X. Zinnia was the head of hacking.“She—” That was the only word X could manage before the van door swung open—no, it was ripped open.Before X could react, a dire wolf pounced on him.

    Oxford’s van arrived at the port first. The ship was ready, and his men had already begun unloading the illegal drugs, weapons, and poison into it.He knew staying in a country dominated by Silence was a deadly risk, but he had to come. After all, one can't defeat an enemy without getting a little close.More importantly, there was his little daughter—she might have something that could help him bring Silence down. Once he got what he wanted from her, he would kill her… and if she insisted on keeping quiet, she would be tortured until death.Oxford snickered as he took a drag from his cigarette. Who would’ve thought he’d manage to break into the territory of the most dangerous man in the mafia world?And even kill one of his best men…Ha! Silence is getting old, after all. It was bound to happen. No one stays king forever.If it hadn’t been for Silence, he and Maximus would have had the entire world beneath their feet.“Rest well, brother,” Oxford muttered.
