Claude made this speech in front of his men before every mission, this one is no exception. They answered "Yes! Sir!" And they joined their units. Claude's mind was not only clouded by the risky mission but also by Flora and Lottie he left behind. He felt ominous. And he didn't know why.

“Let’s get you back to the mansion. The police took over the city but still, it won’t be safe till a week later,” said Claude while taking Charlotte from Flora’s embrace. Gimmy helped Flora get out. The poor woman looked pale as a leaf. Claude saw it and bit his lower lip secretly: First, the truth will hurt you, torment you to the core. Then, it will set you free. “How are Vlad and the others?” Asked Flora. She concealed her agony for a second so she could come back to take care of others around her. Flora never failed to surprise Claude. “Vlad got shot. But it is not life-threatening.” “Goodness me!” Flora hurried out to check on Vlad outside, while Gimmy asked his boss: “Was her hiding voice proof?” “I don’t think so” “The poor lady.

"Madame Flora! Mr. Vlad! Are you both alright?! Where’s Lottie and Mr. Knightly?!” “Carl!” Flora immediately hugged the boy. She seemed full of the joys of spring for seeing him alright. Carl was taken by the warmth. He hugged her back and accepted her maternal kisses on the head: “Lottie is fine” answered Flora while caressing the boy’s cheek “However we had to operate on her ear and she should see a doctor as soon as possible”. Frightened by the news, Carl was about to inquire about the location of Lottie, when he saw Claude coming over holding the little girl: “Get in the car. We are going home” ordered Claude. Flora asked to drive with Claude. He accepted by shaking his head. So on the road, she had the chance of talking to him: “What will you do to the kids?” “For the moment I will get them and you to my manor. It is the safest place around” “Charlotte needs a doctor. And they better get scanned. Maybe something else was implanted in their bodies.” “Okay” Flora explained

Flora was half asleep. She was probably delusional. Then she felt some rough lips touching, caressing, suffocating hers, and she lost consciousness for good. The kiss was hard, yet sweet and warm. She couldn’t tell if it was a dream or reality. But she could tell that it was the sweetest feeling ever. The only kisses she got after her mother’s death, were Jack’s kisses. And they were extremely painful and harsh. But although this kiss is masculine and tough, it was gentle too. And it was gentle enough to drive the anxious heart of Flora, to calm down.When Flora woke up. She was clean and tidy. Someone showered her, removed her makeup, and changed her clothes into a white nightgown. Flora tried to stand up but two things prevented her: The first was her stomach ache, and the second was the red ropes chaining her hands. She looked around to ask for help when she saw him sitting next to her bed.Claude almost fell asleep by the bed of Flora. Under the fragile light of the cloudy morning,

It was chilly outside. Claude put his jacket on Flora's shoulders: "Don't go to the balcony with a nightgown. You may get a cold."Flora smiled at him and asked: "Where are the kids?""I sent them to the hospital to get scanned. Also, Charlotte needs to get her ear treated properly. They will be back soon""You said you think about keeping them?""Yes. I want to foster them. I will start the legal process, once the atmosphere calms down""That's generous of you.

They deserve the protection of an adult.""The care of an adult, too""I'm not sure if I can help them with the care they need. I may need your help.""With pleasure!"Flora looked so delighted by the suggestion that her cheeks went pinky. Claude was astonished by her happiness.He said: "I believe you can make a great mother one day."Flora's cheeks went from pink to red, hearing his statement.

Flora woke up the next morning to the sound of knocking on her chamber door.“Yes?!” She asked“Are you decent?”“A moment please.”Flora jumped off the bed and went to the bathroom to wash her face. She knew the voice owner: That was the voice of Mr. Wolfgang! Flora changed her clothes and did her hair then she stood up in the middle of the chamber, head high, straight posture, and severe facial expression:“Please, come in.”Wolfgang came into the room and smirked looking at Flora: She tried to appear solemn and severe but the excitement in her eyes failed her:“How was your night, young lady?”“Cozy, thank you. How have you been, sir?”“You can call me Father. Or don’t. That silly son of mine shall marry you first.”Flora got as red as a cherry and she looked down shyly. He knew she was emotionally entangled with his adopted son! “Calm down Flora.

“Are you happy?” said Mielle. Cassius barely added a word after Claude left him and Mielle. He asked her to give him her seal and gun if she had any. Mielle took off the necklace she kept under her clothes. That necklace had a seal on it: The seal of a thorny rose. With that seal, Mielle has the access to the Brotherhood’s database and has the right to communicate with other members. Without a seal, she is just a hanged member who has no voice. Cassius was not afraid of her. Even if she asks for help, his position as enforcer will prevent her from getting any. Plus, he knew she didn’t want help. Mielle was far too proud to not accept the consequences of her free actions. But he respected the protocol. From the moment she is considered a sinner, to the moment she accepts redemption, Mielle shall stay isolated from the rest of the brotherhood to not spread her sins among them. It was ridiculous, but it was the law that protected this brotherhood for centuries. Mielle gave him her gu

Roxanna was aware of the situation. The moment Cassius told her Claude was waiting for her. She nodded and spared herself successfully from the police. She walked into the study where Claude was smoking and greeted him:- I pay my respect to the glorious silver knight.- Welcome Miss La Rosa. Do me the honor of sharing a discussion.It was a bit dark inside. The smoke made the air thick and gloomy. Roxanna knew that Claude was angry. With his dominant posture and cruel face, he looked quite the dangerous. Claude sat in front of Roxanna and offered her a cigarette. She accepted it and smoked as well. Claude sighed and asked her, with a dry tone:- Long story short, are you the one who did it?- Would you punish the one who did it?- No. I want a painful death for that witch. Yet, choosing this time is just irrational.- It was not me Mr. Knightly. If it was me, I would admit it with no fear.- In that case, do you know who did it?- No, no one told me about something like that happeni

He will damn kill her!Once they heard Bianca’s scream, Flora was about to run into the building and head to the ballroom, when Vlad caught her hand:“Stay here, I will go to enquire.”“Yes.”The moment Vlad disappeared, Ludovic appeared as if he was waiting for her to be alone. “So? Shall we go?”“What have you done?!”“Nothing. But it is a good occasion to run without Jack and Claude noticing us.”“No, I can’t! I didn’t tell Claude yet that I am going with you! I can’t just disappear again! That would be cruel and disrespectful!”Ludovic grabbed the woman’s arm and growled: “Do you want to meet Wolfgang or not?”“But…”“Yes or No?! Make a choice!”“Yes.”“Then let’s go. We have no time left. Soon the two men will get aware of your disappearance.”Ludovic took Flora to his car and ordered his men to act as secretly as possible.

Bianca screamed as her mother collapsed in the ballroom: “Mother! Mother! Wake up!!!”A line of black thick blood was coming out of the mouth of the unconscious woman. “Poison!” cried a lady “She is poisoned!”Claude came to the ballroom with Jack as soon as they heard the screaming:“Is that your doing?” Claude asked Jack the moment they got to the door.“No. Yours?”“No.”“Who then?”They didn’t need that answer for the moment. Instead, they approached the victim:“What the f*ck is this?” said Jack as he knelt beside the collapsed woman.“Oh! Mr. Black! Mother! Mother got poisoned!” responded Bianca crying.Claude ordered his men to call the police and an ambulance. But Jack said coldly as he examined the woman: “Order them to hurry and bring a doctor along. I do not think she can make it in more than an hour.”“Alright. Ladies and gentlemen, please do not leave your positions. Stay where you are until the police are here.”Inside, Claude was cursing.

Flora looked around her all the time. Claude was nowhere to be seen when she needed to talk to him as soon as possible. Staying around Roxana was the best. But Flora was anxious so she excused herself and went into the hallway to look for Claude. The anxiety made Flora not pay attention to Jack who came after her. But suddenly as she walked in the long corridor, she felt a shiver. And she immediately knew what it was. She turned to look solemn and saw Jack behind her, smiling as the devil he is:- Did you miss your Daddy, babydoll?He said with a teasing smile and Flora had the desire to vomit. And she did not answer. She just kept looking at him with pride and confidence.Jack’s smile started to fade as he sensed something was different about Flora’s eyes. He saw her arrogant look thousands of times before, but this… this was something different:- Come back to your house my dear wife.

First, they got disappointed seeing he had a partner. Then, they got even more disappointed to see him dancing with the ball’s queen: Flora La Candida.Cassius only smiled at Flora. No word was said for a while. He led her softly and naturally. They looked perfect dancing together. But after some time, Cassius bent on his partner and whispered:- Tell me he didn't hurt you that night Flora. Please, tell me he didn't.- He didn't- Thank goodness. Cassius sighed. Now that you are back things will get better. As his close friend, I am truly happy you are back, Flora. Claude was acting strong but inside he was burning.

When she opened her eyes she saw him looking at her and she felt like heaven."We must go back to the ballroom, don't we?""I think we should. I'll never get enough of the shocked face of your stepmother."Flora giggled:"Neither I !""Let me help you dress then I will go and ask a maid to help you with your hair and makeup.""Gosh! I have a problem. I didn't bring anything to correct my appearance!""That's alright. In the resting room, they are keeping some brushes and makeup simple.""What a relief to be in a masquerade held by a billionaire."Claude laughed and said:"Are you aware you came to a masquerade without a mask? All of that to disturb those b*tches?""Well, in fact, I was planning on wearing a mask and meeting you privately. Then I thought: Why am I scared? Let them know I am alive.
