ELOISE

Last night was a blast. I wanted to go bar hopping again, but Elijah, being the killjoy that he always is, decided to take me straight home to the mansion. So here I am again, sitting at the long dining table with my so-called father. I grimaced before yawning, lazily eyeing the food spread out in front of me but my eyes stopped at the end of the table where the demon seated. I was expecting the usual—cold silence or his endless tirades about how much of a disappointment I am. But today... something’s different. I blinked, trying to process what I was seeing. My father, smiling. Not the sarcastic, mocking smirk he usually wears, but an actual, genuine smile as he sipped his coffee. "Did I wake up in the wrong house?" Farah, sitting across from me, muttered.We exchanged a glance before I looked away, lazily reaching for a piece of bread."Good morning, Farah, Eloise, and Sandro," the devil himself greeted us, which was incredibly surprising. Just the other day, he looked

ELIJAH

Could this day get any more frustrating? First, there was last night's disaster—my conversation with Eloise. Then, this morning, my mom started bugging me about marrying the daughter of one of her friends, throwing in her usual guilt trip about how she's getting older. As if that wasn’t enough, seeing Noel again after all these years stirred up things I wasn’t ready to deal with. And now, Eloise’s eyes are boring into me, full of accusation, as if I had betrayed her by not telling her Noel was back. It felt like the universe was testing my patience! “Don’t tell me we’ve been waiting here for half an hour already because Eloise ruined the meeting?” Veronica scoffed, crossing her arms as she leaned back in her seat. I sighed, rubbing the bridge of my nose. “She didn’t ruin the meeting. She just… made an entrance, that’s all.” "An entrance?" Veronica raised an eyebrow, disbelief etched on her face. "She barged in, glared at everyone like she owned the place, and completely derai

ELOISE

Elijah looked at me like I’d lost my mind. His mouth opened, then closed, like he couldn’t believe what I just said. "You need what?!" he asked, his voice loud and sharp. I crossed my arms, meeting his shocked gaze. "Sperm. Your sperm," I said again, not even blinking. He rubbed his face, letting out a frustrated sigh. "Eloise, are you out of your mind?" "No, I’m not." I raised my chin, my tone steady. "He wants an heir. I’ll give him one—but I need your help. Simple as that." He laughed, but it wasn’t the usual amused kind—it was the kind that made my skin prickle. "Simple? Simple?! Are you hearing yourself, Eloise?! You can’t just walk up to me and casually ask for my sperm like you’re borrowing sugar from a neighbor!" "Why not?" I said, crossing my arms, unfazed by his outburst. "Why not?!" His voice pitched higher, his hands flailing as if trying to grab an invisible explanation. "Because it’s crazy, Eloise! It’s absolutely insane! You don’t just do things like this!

ELIJAH

"Elijah, I need your sperm.” She just needs your sperm, Elijah! Your sperm! It doesn’t mean you two will have sex! You’ll just be her sperm donor!“Fuck… Oh… Goddamnit, Eloise!”I tightly shut my eyes, the image of her serious face as she said those words replaying in my mind.“Elijah, I need your sperm.”I was utterly exhausted, gasping for air and drenched in sweat. I can't fucking sleep! No matter what I do, I can't erase the way she said those words from my mind! Her alluring face is just too much to handle! My strength is draining, and even my hands feel tired. It’s like I’m burning up with fever from this unbearable heat! This isn’t the first time I’ve fantasized about my sister-in-law, but it’s definitely the first time I’ve touched myself nonstop from midnight till dawn!“Ahhh…. Fuck, Eloise! Fuck! Fuck! Damn it!” I'm not even sure if she's serious about what she's asking for! But the thought that I’m the first person she thought of... that’s what’s making me so damn hard!

ELOISE

I sat on the stairs, the cold cement biting against my legs, a cigarette lazily dangling between my fingers. The smoke curled upward, vanishing into the evening air as I stared into nothingness. "An STD? Really?" I muttered to myself, smirking at Elijah’s pathetic attempt to scare me off Rafael. The confidence in his voice was almost convincing, but I wasn’t stupid. Elijah might be good at running a business, but lying? He sucked at it. I exhaled a cloud of smoke, letting the nicotine calm the storm of thoughts in my head. Rafael wasn’t exactly perfect, but the question nagged me now: who would be? Who could fit the messy, temporary role of baby daddy without ruining my life in the process? Elijah’s words echoed in my mind, louder than I wanted them to. "Pick someone with a sense of responsibility... someone you can trust." I scoffed, flicking the ash off my cigarette. "Easier said than done, genius." Trust wasn’t exactly my strong suit, and responsibility? Most men ran from that

I leaned back in my chair, staring blankly at the ceiling, replaying the words I had thrown at Eloise earlier. Rafael has an STD? Damn, I really said that, didn’t I? The lie had just slipped out so effortlessly, and I couldn’t even blame the heat of the moment. It was pure, unfiltered panic. I groaned, running a hand over my face. Rafael was going to kill me if this ever got back to him. Not that I cared much—I’d do it again if it meant keeping Eloise away from him. Before I could spiral any further into my thoughts, the door to my office burst open with a loud bang, nearly making me fall out of my chair. "Elijah, my man!" Rafael’s voice boomed as he strode into the room, grinning like he had just won the lottery. Oh, great. Speak of the devil. "Why are you smiling like that?" I asked, sitting up straight and trying to mask my unease. He plopped down on the chair across from me, completely at ease, like he owned the place. "Why wouldn’t I be? Life’s good, brother. Life’s r

ELOISE

It’s nice if someone is worried about you, but when they start acting like the world is ending just because you inhaled a little smoke? Ugh, it’s too much. I opened my eyes to the blinding hospital lights and immediately groaned. The air felt sterile, cold, and heavy with the scent of antiseptics. My throat was dry, and my body ached, but none of that compared to the irritation bubbling inside me. Elijah was pacing near the bed, his face a mix of relief and frustration. He looked like he’d aged ten years in the past hour. “Elijah,” I croaked, trying to sit up. “Stop pacing. You’re making me dizzy.” “You should stay lying down!” he snapped, rushing to my side like I was made of glass. His hands hovered over me like he wasn’t sure where to touch. “Do you even realize what could’ve happened to you?!” “Yes, I inhaled some smoke and fainted. Big deal,” I muttered, waving him off. “I’m not dying.” His jaw tightened, and I could tell he was holding back a lecture. “Eloise, you we

I could feel my throat burn as I downed the entire glass of vodka, the sting doing little to ease the frustration simmering inside me. The bass-heavy music pounded through the club, matching the erratic rhythm of my thoughts. Across the table, Rafael lounged comfortably, a smug grin on his face as two women clung to his arms, giggling at whatever nonsense he was whispering in their ears. “Rough night, Eli?” Rafael called out over the music, smirking like the asshole he was. “You’re drinking like you just lost the lottery.” I ignored him, signaling the bartender for another drink. My mind was elsewhere—on a certain stubborn woman who always managed to push me to the edge and leave me hanging there. Eloise. My grip on the glass tightened as I remembered my conversation with Edmund earlier. I stared at Eloise's face. She might have an angelic face, but when she wakes up, she’s colder than Elsa from Frozen (thanks to Venice’s little sister for introducing me to that movie). Her

ELOISE

Uncle Sandro gently dabbed the side of my lip with a cotton ball soaked in antiseptic, his brows furrowed in concentration. I winced at the sting but didn’t pull away."You're always so stubborn," he muttered, his voice tinged with both frustration and concern. "Why do you always let things escalate to this point?"I rolled my eyes, ignoring the question. "It’s not like I asked for this, Uncle. Besides, it’s just a bruise.”His hand froze mid-air, and he gave me a look that could rival a storm. "Just a bruise? Eloise, this isn’t normal. Edmund crossed the line, and you’re acting like it’s just another Tuesday!” I just shrugged in response. Then I saw the pity in his eyes. "Fine. Fine. Fine. We’re not doing this if you’re just going to pity me," I said irritably, snatching the cotton ball from his hands. He wouldn’t have even known about this if we hadn’t bumped into each other on the stairs earlier!Uncle Sandro’s expression turned serious, his usual warmth replaced by somethi

ELIJAH

I leaned back in my chair, the papers trembling slightly in my hand as I read the report. A raid on an illegal gambling operation—and my mother’s name tangled in it. Of course. Another day, another scandal tied to the Dawson name. I tossed the folder onto my desk, rubbing my temples. She never learns. Her business might be legitimate on the surface, but it’s always what lurks beneath that drags everything into chaos. And now, it’s my problem to clean up. Again. My jaw clenched as I flipped through the detailed accounts from the private investigator. Names, locations, bribes—it was all there. Everything the authorities would need to bury her, if they weren’t already in her pocket. "How does she always manage to pull me into her mess?" I muttered under my breath. I leaned forward, running a hand down my face. This wasn’t just about her reputation; it was about mine. If this blows up, the fallout won’t just hit her—it’ll hit me, my business, and everyone under the Dawson umbrella
