All Chapters of THE TYRANT'S CONTRACT BRIDE: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

Serena curled herself into a little ball, feeling deflated and exhausted. There was a soft rap at the bedroom door before it eased open. Killian stuck his tousled head through the gap, his eyes crinkling at the corners as he took in her absolutely wrecked appearance with an amused snort."Well, well...look who finally decided to rejoin the land of the living," he drawled, sauntering into the room with a large cup of steaming coffee clutched in one hand and what appeared to be a couple of pain relievers in the other. "Got to say, you're looking pretty damn rough around the edges there, sister-in-law."Serena could only respond with a pitiful sniffle as he set his offerings down on the nightstand and settled himself on the edge of the mattress beside her. "Just kill me now and put me out of my misery," she rasped out, sounding utterly wrecked."Ah ah ah, none of that kind of talk," Killian chided. "We've got way too much fun still ahead of us for me to let you kick the bucket o

Serena felt heat rising unbidden to her cheeks as her traitorous mind instantly flashed back to that mortifying incident she'd witnessed on her first day. The lewd scene sprang to life behind her eyes with vivid clarity. Sevens naked, sculpted body glistening with a sheen of sweat as he moved with an inhumane intensity, limbs tangled in a knot of ecstasy, breathy moans and the slap of flesh on flesh filling the air.Serena gave her head a sharp shake, desperately trying to banish the X-rated images from her mind. “I’m fine.” She cleared her throat roughly, unable to meet Seven's piercing gaze. She could feel the weight of his stare boring into her as though he could through her feeble attempt at nonchalance with those unnervingly perceptive eyes of his.Killian, ever the one to bulldoze through awkward silences, immediately piped up with one of his trademark crude remarks. "Well, this spread looks absolutely scrumptious," he drawled, raking an exaggerated look of appreciation o

The air itself seemed to vibrate with residual energy even afterward.Knox, Enzo, and Meredith strode in at the front while their small entourage followed a few paces behind. The two men cut imposing figures in their crisp, tailored black suits, while Meredith's slinky black dress hugged her curves in a way that would make a Renaissance artist weep. They didn't seem even remotely fazed that the royal family remained stubbornly, insolently seated upon their arrival in a blatant snub. Their masks glinted in the candlelight, adding an air of mystery and danger to their already intimidating presence.Knox's mind was racing behind his stoic mask. His thoughts were whirling as he analyzed every subtle shift and nuance. He knew this whole dramatic meeting was nothing but an obvious trap conspired by that wicked fake Queen Sahar. But he'd decided it was finally time to stop hiding behind others. It was time for the supernatural world - hell, maybe even the human world too - to know

Knox moved with an aura of elegance and tyranny. He strode forward, each step resonating with an otherworldly power that sent tremors through everyone. The assembled members shrank back, their faces etched with terror as Knox came to a stop before Isolde.He stared at the most powerful sorceress in the realm, now looking like a broken doll. Isolde had tried invading Knox's mind the second he stepped into the hall with his entourage. It was a technique that had never failed her before, allowing her to slip past even the strongest mental defenses and bend the strongest wills to her whims. However, her mind had been the one invaded instead, and she had been fighting to fend him off from her deepest secrets until this moment when her powers couldn't sustain it anymore. Too late, she realized she had severely underestimated her opponent.Knox was no longer the naive prince she had once manipulated with ease. He had become something... else. Something terrifying beyond her comprehen

~Meanwhile~The convoy of blacked-out luxury cars rolled through the cemetery gates. The procession moved with an eerie, funeral-like slowness, as if the very air was thick with grief and accusation. Serena sat in one of the customized vehicles. She looked poised yet visibly tense in her stylish mourning attire - a black customized over-the-knee dress that probably cost more than most people's monthly salary. To her left sat the silent, stone-faced Seven. On her right lounged Killian, sprawled with casual arrogance with a smirk playing at the corners of his mouth. His grey eyes glinted with barely contained malice as he gazed out at the gathering crowd.As soon as the convoy rolled to a stop, the army of bodyguards burst out of the surrounding vehicles like a well-oiled machine. They moved with the precision and intensity of a Navy SEAL team preparing for combat, swarming the middle car in a protective formation. Their eyes scanned the gathered crowd, searching for any poten
