Alysha’s military boots crunched against the gravel path as she walked through the gates of her old villa, the air thick with the scent of earth and pine from the surrounding military camp. She paused, taking in the sight of her former home—a fortress of stone and iron, surrounded by layers of security and patrolling soldiers. It had been a while, but she felt the familiar hum of power and security vibrating through the air. She was back.

As she pushed open the heavy door, the echo of her footsteps filled the hall, but it wasn’t long before a familiar figure emerged from the shadows. Charles Sternly’s eyes narrowed when he saw her, his posture rigid, his arms crossed tightly over his chest. “What are you doing here?” he demanded, his voice sharp, the surprise flickering across his face.

Alysha tilted her head slightly, a slow smile spreading across her lips. “Isn’t this my home, Charles?” she asked, her tone smooth and calm. “Why shouldn’t I come back?”

    The Military Villa loomed under the darkened sky, its sharp lines and sturdy construction exuding an aura of authority and precision. Inside, the air was thick with tension, the faint hum of the overhead lights the only sound as Charles marched down the corridor, his footsteps measured, his grip firm on the envelope in his hands. Inside it, the truth. Every piece of Alysha Jarl’s life that Neil Holland had worked so meticulously to bury.He stopped at the doorway to the dimly lit study where Alysha sat, her head bowed, lost in thought. A single lamp cast a pool of light over the desk, highlighting the faint slump of her shoulders and the weariness etched into her face. She looked up as Charles entered, her eyes narrowing slightly as she registered his serious demeanor.Without a word, Charles placed the envelope on the desk in front of her, the action deliberate, heavy with meaning. The sound of the papers sliding against the wood echoed in the quiet room.“What’s this?” Alysha asked,

    The fluorescent lights of Holland hospital glowed coldly above as Alysha walked in beside Charles. The sterile scent of antiseptic filled the air, mingling with the faint echoes of footsteps and distant chatter. The tension was palpable the moment they entered the lobby, the polished floors reflecting their every step.Seraphina stood waiting, her arms crossed tightly over her chest, her eyes narrowing as she spotted Alysha. “What is she doing here?” she demanded, her voice laced with irritation.Charles, calm and unbothered, didn’t miss a beat. “She’s a doctor at this hospital. What do you think she’s doing?” he replied smoothly, his eyes never leaving Seraphina’s.Seraphina’s lips pressed into a thin line, and she took a step back, clearly taken aback by his blunt response. Her gaze flicked between Alysha and Charles, suspicion clouding her eyes. “I’m the CEO of this hospital,” she snapped, her voice a sharp, cold edge. “Don’t forget it. I can do whatever I want.”Charles smirked, t

    Andrine’s eyes, filled with a glimmer of hope and desperation, met Alysha’s. She stepped closer, her voice softer but urgent. “You might not remember me,” she began, her tone almost pleading, “but you know I’m your sister, right?”Alysha offered a small, reassuring smile and nodded. “Of course, Andrine,” she replied gently. “I know you’re my sister.”For a brief moment, the tension in the room seemed to ease, but then Andrine’s expression shifted. The vulnerability in her eyes hardened, replaced by a quiet determination. “I need money,” she said, the words direct and unflinching.Alysha’s smile faltered, and she blinked, taken aback. “Money?” she echoed, her brow furrowing in confusion.Andrine’s face tightened as she continued, her voice laced with frustration. “Maximilian’s been making my life hell. He’s stopped paying for my medical school fees.” She looked down, as if trying to hide the anger and hurt simmering beneath her composed exterior. “I need the money to continue.”Alysha’

    Maximilian’s presence loomed at the door frame, his eyes sharp and calculating, the sly smile on his lips dripping with cruel amusement. Andrine felt a chill run down her spine the moment she saw him, and she instinctively turned back to Bjorn’s bedside, her hands trembling slightly as she resumed her task of adjusting his sheets. She tried to focus on her brother-in-law, but Maximilian’s voice echoed through the room, taunting her.“Honey...” he drawled, his tone mocking and possessive.Andrine’s breath hitched. She kept her eyes down, refusing to look at him. The word felt like a blade, cutting into her already frayed nerves.Maximilian stepped inside, his military boots heavy on the polished floor. The air around him seemed to thrum with authority, and his uniform—a stark, intimidating reminder of his power—made her feel even smaller. “Are you ready to go home with me?” he asked, his voice soft but carrying a note of menace.Andrine remained silent, her fingers tightening on the be

  • When Betray Brings Mr. Right   Asking Armin for money

    Alysha hesitated as she stood outside the imposing gates of Armin’s villa, her fingers curling into the strap of her bag. She took a deep breath, feeling the weight of her decision pressing down on her. She hadn’t wanted to come here, but she had no other choice. The divorce had left her with nothing, and with the judge giving them a year to reconsider their marriage, she was still technically tied to Armin. But money was what she needed right now, not the complicated tangle of emotions she felt.The villa loomed before her, larger than she had imagined. She had never been here before, despite everything they’d shared, or rather, everything they hadn’t. As she walked through the grand entryway, the space felt cold and distant, the air heavy with an uncomfortable stillness. She moved forward, her footsteps echoing off the marble floors, unsure where to go.Each hallway she passed seemed more elegant and refined than the last, but it was all unfamiliar, like she was walking through a st

    In an instant, Armin’s hand shot out, gripping Seraphina’s jaw tightly. His eyes blazed with a mix of anger and something darker. “Don’t talk so much,” he snarled, his voice low and dangerous. “Not everything is finished between me and Alysha yet.”Seraphina’s eyes widened, and she stiffened, her breath hitching as she processed his words. “What?” she whispered, the shock and confusion clear on her face.Armin’s grip tightened, his face mere inches from hers as he spoke. “You know as well as I do that she’s the key to the Jarl project.”Seraphina’s face twisted with anger and disbelief, but she couldn’t move under his hold. “You mean... you still want her?” she hissed, struggling against his grip. “After everything?”Armin’s eyes narrowed, and he released her, pushing her back onto the bed. “I need her, Seraphina. It’s not just about what I want. It’s about what she represents—the leverage she holds, the access to the Jarl fortune.” He took a step back, his tone cold. “You know this.

    Seraphina, hidden just beyond the doorway, watched the entire scene unfold with a gleeful glint in her eyes. She had seen Alysha’s desperation, the way she had tried to plead for money, only to be met with Armin’s anger and harsh words. And when Alysha had fled, her panic and fear palpable, Seraphina could hardly contain her delight.A smile tugged at her lips, and she reached into her designer purse, pulling out her phone. She stepped back further into the shadows, her fingers moving quickly as she dialed a familiar number. The phone rang twice before her brother’s deep voice answered.“Maximilian,” she whispered, her tone dripping with satisfaction, “you’ll never believe what I just witnessed.” She paused for dramatic effect, savoring the power she felt. “Our dear Alysha came crawling to Armin for money. Begging, practically. And you know what happened?”Maximilian’s voice was cold, but there was a hint of curiosity. “What did he do?”Seraphina’s smile widened, her eyes glinting wit

She had hoped to slip in quietly, unnoticed, but as soon as she crossed the threshold, she heard Charles’s voice.“Where were you?” he demanded, his tone sharp, his eyes narrowing as he watched her from the doorway of the living room.Alysha stiffened, her mind scrambling for an excuse. “I—I was at the hospital,” she replied, trying to keep her voice steady.Charles took a step forward, his expression unreadable but his eyes sharp, searching hers for any sign of deception. “Your shift ended four hours ago.” His tone was calm, but there was an edge to it, and she felt a shiver run down her spine. “Where were you?”Alysha felt her pulse quicken, her palms growing clammy as she forced herself to meet his gaze. She swallowed hard, knowing that her absence could raise suspicions she didn’t want to answer. “I—I went for a walk,” she stammered, trying to sound conv

Ivan’s grip was firm but comforting, pulling Alysha closer to his chest. It was a silent declaration, a clear message to everyone in the room:Alysha is mine. My wife. My family.Alysha stood stiffly beside Ivan, her amber eyes darting nervously between the two men. She felt the weight of Seraphin

    Alysha’s heart ached, but she forced herself to remain steady, to hold onto the resolve she’d found in the quiet of her own reflection. She took a step back, her voice gentle yet firm. “Ivan, some things can’t be undone. Sometimes… letting go is the only way forward.”He stilled, his face shadowed with a heartbreak he hadn’t prepared for, his jaw tightening as he absorbed the truth in her words. Yet, as painful as it was, he didn’t move, his gaze fixed on her, his silence a quiet acknowledgment of the distance that lay between them.Without a word, Ivan moved closer, his expression dark and determined as he scooped her into his arms, cradling her against his chest. Alysha’s breath hitched, her eyes widening in surprise as he carried her toward the bed, the resolve she’d clung to slipping under the intensity of his gaze.He laid her down gently, his weight settling beside her, his eyes locked onto hers with a heat that made her heart race. She couldn’t look away, captivated by the vu

    Alysha turned away, her hand clutching the strap of the bag as she stood, moving toward the bedroom. And as she left him standing there in silence, Ivan understood that this was only the beginning of a long journey—one he was willing to walk, no matter how long it took.Alysha stepped into the bathroom, closing the door softly behind her, feeling the weight of the evening pressing down on her. The quiet hum of the house seemed to grow louder as she leaned against the door, exhaling a shaky breath, her hand pressed over her heart. She could still feel the intensity of Ivan’s gaze, his words echoing in her mind, a steady, relentless pull that she struggled to resist.She moved toward the mirror, her reflection staring back at her, raw and tired, emotions flickering across her face—anger, sadness, and something else, something that lingered beneath the surface, too complicated to name. Turning on the faucet, she let the water run, the sound filling the silence, grounding her as she let h

    Heinz’s voice broke the tense silence in the foyer, his tone softer but carrying the weight of a command wrapped in concern. “Alysha, you must be tired,” he said, gesturing toward the grand staircase. “Why don’t you and Ivan go to your room? Take some time to rest.”Alysha turned to look at Heinz, her eyes wary, catching the subtle insistence in his tone. She could sense the layers beneath his words—the way he spoke as though her resistance were nothing more than fatigue, a temporary lapse that rest could fix. He was giving her no choice, and the authority in his voice reminded her just how deep the control in this family ran.Ivan, too, glanced at her, his gaze unreadable, though there was a flicker of something softer in his eyes, an unspoken plea. He took a step forward, his hand reaching out just slightly, as if to guide her. “Come on, Alysha,” he murmured, his voice low. “Let’s go upstairs.”Alysha held her ground, her jaw tightening. Her instinct was to refuse, to keep her dista

  • When Betray Brings Mr. Right   Anderson state

    The convoy of sleek black cars pulled up to the sprawling gates of **Anderson State**, a place that had been shrouded in silence and mystery for decades. The estate was massive, its grand architecture looming against the gray Boston sky, surrounded by acres of well-manicured land that bore the scars of neglect. As the gates creaked open, Alysha peered out of the car window, her heart pounding. The sight of the mansion took her breath away—its towering columns and elegant stone façade exuded a timeless grandeur, but the faded paint and overgrown gardens hinted at years of abandonment. Sisi sat on Alysha’s lap, her tiny hands gripping her mother’s jacket tightly. She looked up at Alysha and whispered, “Mommy… big house.” Alysha managed a small smile, brushing her fingers through Sisi’s curls. “Yes, my angel,” she murmured, though unease prickled at the edges of her mind. Ivan, seated beside her, stared out the window, his jaw tight. His piercing blue eyes scanned the estate, hi

    Little Sisi’s small legs carried her across the room as fast as they could, her soft giggles replaced by panicked cries. She didn’t understand the tension in the air or the argument unfolding between the adults, but she knew one thing for certain—she needed her mother, no matter what. “Mommy!” Sisi called, her voice trembling as she reached Alysha and grabbed the hem of her dress with her tiny hands. Alysha looked down, her amber eyes softening as Sisi clung to her, her little face scrunched with worry.

Alone, unprotected?”Alysha’s throat tightened, but before she could respond, Ivan’s gaze darkened even further. “Even your little sister
