'You can take your revenge by this engagement, you know that, right?' Receiving the note from her best friend Saffron, Scar sighed and turned to look outside of the car.

Yes, Saffron was right. The Edwards family belonged to veteran aristocrats in this country, which meant that being their daughter-in-law would bring you endless wealth as well as strong power.

And it was said that their heir was a young genius who got a god's face. But Scar was not sure whether it was true as she never had a chance to meet him before.

'I am not into getting married. Well, at least not like this.' Shaking her head, Scar replied to her friend with a negative choice.

'Just for the relic.' Closing her eyes, she took a sharp breath and reminded herself of the motive of her joining the banquet.

Soon they arrived, Scarlett stepped out of the car and found out that the ladies here tonight had given their best to look catchy.

'Maybe I can keep myself hidden from others' eyes if I keep my distance away.' She thought in mind.

"Oh dad, don't worry. I will be an obedient girl and do what makes my father happy." Camilla said sweetly, batting her lashes, trying to play innocent and be close to Connor.

'What a bitch!' She couldn't help rolling her eyes at her so-called sister, who seemed so full of herself.

Connor nodded his head, looking around and trying to keep his posture charismatic. "You better show your performance tonight." He started and then his eyes fell on his other daughter.

"And you..." He lowered his voice at her, only for Scar to hear. "You should better attain the task or can forget the relic."

Her already sour mood turned more tetchy. But she knew she wasn't in the position to fight back for now.

With a slow nod, Scar clenched her fists. "Yes, I remember."

"You better be." He stated. "Now, don't just stand here and try to charm the people."

With an inward sigh, Scar stepped behind her father, only to be stopped by Camilla. She closed her way and Scarlett frowned in annoyance.

"What are you doing?" Her tone was low, but cold enough to voluminous her venom for Camilla.

"Stay away from me."

"Oh!" Camilla's lips raised in a sly smirk. "You better stay away from me and the heir of Edwards. I will be getting all for myself, you filthy slut."

A curse for her was just at the tip of Scar's tongue, but it was not worth wasting words with an idiot like her.

"Wish you good luck, sister. After all, there are so many dazzling ladies tonight." She just walked away with a sarcastic smirk on her face, leaving Camilla in a stinging jealousy.

Getting inside the banquet hall, Scarlett was once again caught by her father, when she only wanted to hide in some corner. He kept introducing his two daughters to others, hoping to find any possible marriage which could bring him more benefit.

And as much Scar hates her, she still has to thank Camilla for her becoming the most irritating social butterfly and catching all the guests' attention toward her.

Suddenly, an exclamation from the crowds. The heir of the Edwards just joined the banquet, grabbing every attention over him.

Like others, Scarlett too turned her gaze in the heir's direction. Only to get choked on her own breath just by looking at his face.

'What the fuck!'

That's the only line her mind could utter at the moment as she turned speechless by all means.

Because the heir looked exactly the same as the stranger she had spent all night with yesterday!

That cold and dangerous, but extremely good-looking man.

As he was surrounded by other guests,  Scar tried to cover herself while listening to other women squealing with excitement.

She might be the only woman trying to hide and probably running away.

Yet, she failed when her father grabbed her hand tightly.

"Remember the relic, Scarlett?" His low cold voice once again, reminding her of how cruel and selfish this man could be.

"I do." She jerked his hand away, standing still behind him but not wanting to step further anymore.

Every candidate was meeting the heir and he was replying to them with a charming smile on his face.

Connor was also going to introduce his daughters to him.

'Oh, God! Why is it always me!?' She screamed in her mind, frustrated.

She didn't really want to be recognised by the man. What if he would make fun of her overtly?

She already ran away after that sinful night. Would he feel humiliated and take revenge on her?

Connor would definitely keep forcing her to get the marriage if he knew what happened!

Her thoughts broke the moment her father started the conversation.

"Hello, Mr. Edwards. I am Connor O'Dean. These two are my precious daughters' Camilla and Scarlett."

'God! Now he finds me!'

    "Rafaelle Edwards."The man introduced himself right before them but his deep voice rolled out kindness, unlike last night, which was filled with cold and dominance."Hello." Scar only nodded respectfully, still lowering her face, in order not to let him recognize her."My both daughters' graduated from the prestigious college with high grades." Scar heard his father bragging about them as if he loves his daughters and dotted on them every now and then!'Yeah, an idol father.' She rolled her eyes at his words.However, Rafaelle didn't utter many words nor spare any special attention to his daughters.He was polite in socializing while maintaining his distance.'That's great!’ Scar convinced herself in mind while keeping herself obsessed with the floor.'As long as I survive this boring social time, I'll be free!'Her heart beat faster when he turned to leave. She unconsciously turned to her left, covering her face more. However, it stopped Rafaelle on his track.Scarltt would never kn

    Before Scar could realise what happened, she was out of the water, coughing violently."You okay?" She heard a concerned deep voice beside her. When she looked up, it was Rafaelle! All drenched in water. His neatly combed hair was messy and his black shirt was hugging his perfect sculpture, making him so hot in her eyes.Her obsession broke when the servants came running there, looking for their master. "Young master, are you alright? Oh, God! You are soaked in water!" One middle-aged man in a butler suit hurriedly tried to put a dry towel on him.Rafaelle raised his hand and stopped the servant, who obliged him obediently but was concerned as hell. "It's alright, Martin. I am fine." He took the dry towel from his hand and wrapped it over Scarlett, who was still in a daze by the intensity of the situation."B...but master..." Martin tried to argue but stopped once again when Rafalle signaled him to stop."Oh my God, Scarlett! What happened to you!?" Camilla quickly came to her sister,

    "Aaachoo." Scarlett sneezed once again for the nth time in just an hour after entering the office.Wiping her nose with the soft cotton clothes she sighed lowly. Feeling limp. 'Fuck those bitches and my crappy fate!' She cursed in her mind out of anger and frustration.Because of falling in the water yesterday, she caught a cold and fever. A very disturbing feeling. She has always been sensitive with water and that's the main reason she never learnt swimming. 'Aaachooh!" Another blow came, startling her. "Fuck!" Scar cursed again and this time audibly. She was having a sneezing trauma since this morning!"Hey, Scar." Jonathan, her colleague pushed his chair a little toward her desk, giving her a cup of hot ginger tea. "Here drink this. Maybe, it will help you to feel a little better?"Wiping her nose, Scarlett looked up at him and smiled brightly or she tried, just then "aachooh." She sneezed again. Scarlett sniffed "I am sorry, Jonathan, and... Thank you for this." She took the cup

    Scarlett blinked her eyes, thinking of him as a hallucination. But, when she looked up at him again, he was standing in front of her.She was tipsy because of the wine she had in her dinner. Scar specially ordered it for their anniversary which never happened and she just gulped the whole bottle by herself.The cold and domineering aura radiated from him, capturing her in the intense situation as if he was the emperor.And the face of him started recollecting the memories the night of a few days ago.

    'Wait... He left me a note?' Everything was making her a bit confused as she read the line he wrote. 'It's your time to find me, little bird.'That's the only thing written on the note with a very clean handwriting.Scar frowned. "What the hell? He really just left with this note? Fucking childish!" She was surprised a bit too. Last time it was her and this time it was him who left.Rolling her lower lip under her teeth she let it go, thinking about the consequences she could face if he did not leave. And the first thing Connor would have done to force her to marry him, which she did not want."Maybe, it's for my good that he left without causing any scene." She mumbled under her breath, feeling a bit glad in her mind.Her eyes once again stopped on the note as for the first time she discovered the special logo printed on the right corner of the top.It's a capital 'W' written in a special symbolic font with a little crown carved on top of it. The design was very simple but has elega

    Tonight, Scarlett wore a thin stripped shimmery blue dress, with a slit starting from her right mid-thigh and as usual a minimum part of her cleavage. This one too was selected by her father.As beautiful as it is, it was also uncomfortable for her. Yet, she didn't protest just because of the relic.After they reached the venue, Scarlett saw some familiar faces but those women from last time weren't present there. That's a relief for her because she did not want any drama like that.However, the tension was still there as she had spent another night with him and he left her with a note.'Don't have any idea, how he will react? Or, like last time he will ignore?' She thought. 'The worst part is, what if he discloses the secret between us? What will happen then?'As she was thinking of many possibilities, Rafaelle appeared followed by two men. Tonight, she did not hide but stood in front, curious to see his expression after watching her. Moreover, he already knew her, and no point in hi

His odour, which did not belong to him when those two nights she was with him!'This scent... This is not what he smelled like before!' Her mind tried to alert her from the deep intricate she was getting involved in. 'What could be the answer for this?' She thought, eyes stuck on the man in front.Rafaelle was amused by her astonished gaze as if she saw something unexpected in him. She was so drowned in her thoughts and not concentrated on her dance at all."See something fabulous to even remove your eyes?" Rafaelle whispered, giving her a spin and in the next se

    Scarlett felt a little nervous meeting her father. She didn't know how he would react.She felt a soft and assuring touch on her back. It's Gabrielle. "Hey, it's alright. Go inside." He whispered in her ear.Inhaling a sharp breath, Scar knocked on the door and stepped inside.Immediately, her feet froze, watching a sickly man, lying on the bed.

    "MAMA!" Scar's eyes wide opened with a scream. She wanted to sit up but a harsh pain all over her body made her groan as she once again was forced to bed."Baby, what happened!?" Gabrielle's panicked voice came from beside her. His eyes just closed in tiredness when he was jerked out with a panicked scream.When he opened his eyes, it was Scarlett, trying to jump off the bed.He quickly held her hands. "It's alright, Baby. I am here. Let me call for the doctor."Soon, doctors appeared and checked her, declaring, she is fine but they will keep her in observation for another day. Then doctors left her with her fiancée.Gabrielle sat beside her on the bed, holding her in his arms. Both were silent, when she spoke, "I saw mama in the dream.""Umhm... What did she say?"Hearing his words, Scar couldn't hold back her tears and hiding in his chest, she started crying. "I...I am the rea...son for her death..." She sobbed. "I...

    With the beeping sounds in the monitor and IV attached to her hand with some other tubes, Scar was laying on the white hospital bed, looking pale much.And a pair of golden green eyes was staring at her without a blink for a second. Twenty-four hours and he has been sitting beside her the whole time. No one could move him from there, not even his mother.He could not believe what the doctor had said when they had to operate on her. They asked him to pray to God, so the baby and mother would be alive.He was devastated and confused when the doctor informed her she is pregnant for a month now. When he was frustrated with the thought that why she didn't inform him, the doctor sighed and said that Scar wanted to surprise him on his birthday and that's why the doctors didn't inform him in the first place.Fortunately, the mother and the infant were fine. However, she needed complete rest during her whole pregnancy and stress out.Gabrielle rubbed his face, still in shock, thinking about wh

    With beeping sounds, Gianna woke up with a heavy head. She got hurt in the head when that gangster pushed her hard and lost consciousness.Opening her eyes, her first thought was about Scarlett, if she was alright.She tried to sit up but suddenly the sharp pain crossed her head and a groan escaped her lips."Don't move." A deep voice said, adjusting her pillow and quilt.Immediately, her eyes snapped to the person and it didn't take her a second to learn that, he was none other than Rafaelle, her son."R...Rafaelle..." She muttered. "Y..ou are he...re?" She asked with her groggy tone."Yeah, I stayed here... Umm... While Gabrielle was with Scarlett." He said.A little hope of getting along rises in her mind, thinking that her son has taken care of her in silence when she needed him. Nothing could be more good than this."Scarlett... How is she?" Gianna asked, breaking the silence."Yeah, she is now under observation... In a weak condition as she is... Pregnant." He said, didn't know

    "Oh no!"Gianna gasped, earning Scar's attention on her as she watched her in concern."A...are you alight? Umm... Yeah, I know that's a stupid question to ask. Still, ma'am."Gianna blinked her eyes. Now, everything seemed normal. Her looking like the little Lillian she knew and somewhat represents her dead friend.After Isabelle died, she looked for Lillian (Scarlett) and Ryan (Connor), but they seemed to disappear in thin air. And now she was watching her again after years later.Gianna gulped the heavy lump in her throat. She was feeling happy and guilty at the same time. Happy because she finally found her, guilty because of her past behaviour against her and all the badmouthing she did to her best friend not knowing the truth."Miss Wolfe?" Scarlett called her again."Huh!? Umm... Yeah, I... I am fine." She stuttered, keeping the truth aside for now."O...okay." Scar felt a little strange. But, this was not the time for greets she asked in a whispery tone. "Do you have a Bobby p

    Scarlett opened her eyes. They felt so heavy as inside her head she could feel a drumming ache.She tried to move around but she couldn't. Confused, Scar looked around only to realise, she was tied up in a dark room, with thick chains on her hands and legs.She tried to drag herself but the heaviness of it was not helping her at all."How the fuck I stuck in here." She mumbled to herself as she looked around again, recalling what just happened.'Wait... I...' She gulped hard. 'I am being kidnapped!' He whole body froze up as she tried to recall the exact sceneries which seemed to be blurry in her mind.'But, who would do that to me?' She thought when suddenly a low painful groan came to her ear.Scar was startled at the sound as she looked beside her and gasped. "Miss Wolfe!" She whispered as it hit her.When those men were forcing her, she came to help but ended up being kidnapped."Oh no, shit!" Cursing in mind, Scar somewhat dragged herself to Gianna as much as he could and whisper

    'Papa could be in danger!'Gabrielle held her in his arms. "I will not let anything happen to your or your father and will also catch that cunning woman. Even though I don't have much connection here, I will try my best. And for all this, I need you to trust me, little bird. Do you trust me?"Scarlett nodded her head in silence. She might not say the words or know Gabrielle's actual power, yet she was always aware that he could be trusted blindly. And she would always trust him."Good. You..." However, before he could complete it, another deep voice fell in their ears."I can help with that..."Both turned their head in the same direction and find Rafaelle standing before the entrance, hands in his pockets."Rafaelle..." The couple were in definite shock as it turned into anger for Gabrielle at a slow pace, but Scar's assured hand on his, tamed it a little bit.Rafaelle watched them and shrugged. "Well, I know you guys are not expecting me here. But, I am." He sighed slightly."I saw

Only stopped before the toilet seat and puked all that was inside her stomach.She was so panicked and feeling sick that she didn't even feel Gabrielle's presence behind her and his rubbing on her back.After she let out everything, Scar felt numb and too weak to move as tears started streaming from her eyes.Without a word, Gabrielle picked her up in his arms and with a wet towel, he cleaned her face before taking her back to the bed.She kept crying and there was no stop of it while Gabrielle kept holding her in his arms."G...Gabe...
