Family Agenda

As agreed during her grandfather's call, before lunch time, Sarah drives to her grandfather's historic mansion, where she is poised to make her formal entry into the family's elite world.Stepping into the grand foyer, it is evident that the household was in a frenzy of activity, all in preparation for her arrival. The gazes she encountered her family and relatives, however, were anything but welcoming and some they dripped with condescension.Out of the corner of her eye, she spotted those who looked like they had stepped out of a fairytale – princesses and princes in both appearance and demeanor. What set them apart was their language; instead of conversing in English, Mandarin, or Shanghainese, they whisper secrets in the elegance of French. Sarah decided to adopt the role of the outsider who seemingly didn't understand, determined not to let their sophisticated chatter rattle her.As she made her way into the cavernous dining hall, she found the Lao's already seated, along with her

Chase and Pursuit

Leaning against the steering wheel, she sobs, the sound raw and desperate. Her grandfather's words have shattered her composure, releasing tears she'd tried to hold back. In her mind, she could still hear grandfather saying the words that shook her. "My girl, be strong and carry on my legacy. I won't be here in this world for long. One day, this will be your home."Then he whispers as he hugs her back, "Seek justice for your grandmother, your parents and for me." He puts his granddaughter’s back, as if just trying to catch up with the years they haven't been together. "The poison in my body has taken a toll of my health and it's a matter of months before I leave you in this cruel world."The banquet has only confirmed her worst fears: Chairman Benjie Lao and his family has been infiltrating the Xiang Empire for nearly two decades like a slow-growing poison in his grandpa's frail body.

And the Music Goes On...

After spending the night in her granduncle Vincent’s penthouse, Sarah finally received word that her apartment had been cleared. No bombs, no intruders. It was safe.She exhales in relief, but deep down, she knew she couldn’t afford to slow down. If anything, this only reinforced her urgency. Time was slipping through her fingers. Her mission wasn’t just about finishing her education or seeking justice for her parents and grandmother—it was also about securing an heir.At just 18, she was painfully aware of how young she was for such weighty responsibilities. Yet, when she looks in the mirror, she saw a contradiction staring back at her. Without makeup, her delicate features could easily pass for 16, but her body tells another story—curves in all the right places, a frame that exuded both femininity and quiet strength.But none of it matters. She has no experience with men—not physically, nor emotionally, and certainly not romantically. And yet, she has no choice but to think and act l

Innocence Forsaken

The world seems to fade away as they dance, their movements a whirlwind of grace and passion. Grayson's eyes, fixed solely on her, as if she is the only one who matters that made the rest of the room vanish. In the manager's lounge, peering through the one-way mirror, William watches them with a cold, predatory gaze, sharp and murderous. He has been watching Sarah since the moment she entered the club, his interest piqued by her. Here she is, dancing with a man who, though charismatic, is dangerously unpredictable. Sarah, an innocent young woman just beginning to explore the thrill of life, is far out of her depth.“Daniel, you told me she has no boyfriend or anything, so why does this Lao scion seem to know her?” William’s voice was low and tight with irritation. His thick eyebrows furrow in frustration, and he stood to flex his leg muscles, his grip on his cognac glass steady but tense.“Master, Mr. Grayson Lao’s the type who thinks he can charm any gorgeous woman. He would take adv

Sweet Surrender

Her pulse racing, her breath unsteady. Standing before him, this man—so close, so impossibly masculine—ignited something inside her that she had never felt before. A raw attraction, an unspoken pull.William took a step closer, his gaze dark, unreadable. His fingers reached for a stray lock of her hair, twirling it between his fingers before tucking it behind her ear."You're nervous," he murmurs, his voice deep and velvety.Sarah swallows hard, nodding. "I’ve never… done this before."His expression didn’t change, but something flickers in his eyes—something primal, something protective. "I know."Her breath hitches. "Does it bother you?"William let out a quiet, almost amused exhale as his fingers traced the bare skin of her shoulder. "No, Sarah. It doesn’t bother me." His gaze softens. "It makes me want to take my time."She shivers at his touch, at the way his voice seemed to settle in the deepest part of her. "I don’t know what to do."His hand slid to her waist, his warmth searin

Beneath it, a different kind of awareness stirred, a faint, unsettling flutter in her belly, a silent, terrifying countdown.Yesterday. I
