Alden's Pov It was hard. Sleeping on the same bed with this woman, was hard. Because tell me why I'm having a boner in the middle of the night due to her constant wiggling. At first, I did as she wished, spooned her, let her press herself against me, even buried my face in her hair because she smelled annoyingly good. And for a while, I actually managed to sleep. Then, she started moving. At first, it was subtle, just small shifts as she got comfortable. But then, she pushed back against me, her perfect ass pressing right against my... I clenched my jaw. Fine. Maybe it was an accident. Then, she did it again. And again. And again. I cracked open one eye, staring at the ceiling in pure agony. Was she doing this on purpose? No, Nyx was already fast asleep, completely unaware of the torment she was putting me through. I let out a slow breath, trying to will my body to calm down. But then, just as I thought I had control over myself, she threw her leg over my lower a

Chapter 42

Nyx's Pov I continued feeding Alden, alternating between stuffing food into his mouth and taking bites from the same spoon. Yvonne’s stare burned into the side of my head, but I ignored her. Alden, on the other hand, was thoroughly enjoying himself. His cheeks were stuffed like a chipmunk’s, his lips barely able to close around the excessive amount of food I was shoving into his mouth. Every time I scooped up another spoonful, he just opened his mouth expectantly, like some overgrown baby bird. I snorted, “You know, you can use your own spoon.” Alden chewed, swallowed, then smirked, “And miss out on this special treatment? Not a chance.” Yvonne let out a strangled noise from across the table. I finally turned to acknowledge her. She looked like she had just witnessed a murder. Or worse. Like someone had personally offended her entire bloodline. “You two…” She started, her voice slow and careful, “Are insane.” I grinned, deliberately taking another bite before offering A

Chapter 43

Author's Pov “Whip him.” A slow, soft command escaped the lips of a teenager who barely looked like one. He was short, so short that you would barely think he was up to eighteen years old, he had sunken eyes but his electric blue eyes glowed in the dark, sending shivers down the spine of everyone whom he stared at. No one dared to meet his eyes. A loud scream echoed in the underground basement, but the boy merely smirked in response as he spoke again, “Are you ready to tell me the truth? Where. Is. She.” He enunciated slowly. “I really have no idea! I'm not lying! She was taken by a man named Gary but we found out that he was killed and she was nowhere to be found. I really don't know where she is now.” The man cried out, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. His entire body was filled with whip marks and burn marks, some were still bleeding, others were an angry purple. “He looks like he is telling the truth. The auction house do not keep track of their goods after it's b

Chapter 44

Nyx's Pov The picture of Tobias’s body was in the document and the autopsy as well, though it was clear as day. Tobias had died from three slashes to his neck. The depths of the slashed showed that the killer didn't use enough power to slash him but the artery that was cut was precise, too precise. The external carotid artery had been severed in a single, clean motion, allowing the blood to spill out in a controlled flow rather than a jagged, desperate wound. I frowned, leaning in closer. The cut wasn’t just deadly; it was calculated. There was no hesitation, no unnecessary force, no ragged edges where the blade had caught on skin or muscle. Even as an assassin, I knew how hard it was to get a cut this clean. My kills weren’t always neat, I moved quickly, effectively, but there was always some variance in the force behind my blade, the resistance of flesh, the unpredictability of movement. But this? This was perfect. Just too perfect. Alden must have noticed my silence becaus

Chapter 45

Nyx's Pov "Hahaha... This is crazy." I muttered. I had always wondered why I couldn't remember anything that happened after Helena and I escaped after killing Victor and I actually thought that Helena had something to do with it previously; I was someone who could barely trust another person so it wasn't hard for me to blame her. However, with all the reasons she gave, and how long it was, I barely asked her about it anymore. But now, it turns out that she was actually helping Victor? Really?! But why though? She had hated Victor, hated his guts and always talked about how she wanted to kill him but then she turns around and starts helping him. What gives? "I still can't wrap my head around this whole shit." I groaned, throwing my head back. Alden patted my shoulders, then he put his hands at the back of my neck and forcefully pulled my head up.He leaned forward, his forehead touching mine, "That's not the end of it, however." He said, his face awfully close to mine. I pouted and

Chapter 46

Nyx's Pov I took deep breaths because everything in my was trying not to break his wrist. My fingers twitched, aching to dig into my hidden blade and make him regret everything. But then, I let my body relax, my lips curling into a slow, seductive smirk. I already knew how I was going to rob him blind. Damien thought he had the upper hand, the poor fool. His fingers traced lazy patterns along my side, his touch confident, predatory. But he had no idea he was the prey. I let out a soft, pleased hum, tilting my head as if enjoying his touch, "Mmm… A man like you must have a fortress of a safe, no?” He chuckled, his other hand reaching for his drink. “Smart girl. But even smart girls don’t get to know all my secrets.” I pouted, shifting in my seat so my thigh brushed against his, “Not even when they ask nicely?” His gaze darkened, hunger gleaming in his beady little eyes, “Depends on how nicely you ask.” Jackpot. I leaned in, ghosting my lips over the shell of his ear, “Yo

Chapter 47

Nyx's Pov "So... when did you find out what I was trying to do? From the start?" I crossed my arms, putting the suitcase in between my foot and cracking my knuckles. Damien chuckled, his eyes raking all over my body, I was not able to stop the disgusted shiver that passed through my body. Ugh... I needed Alden to take away this disgusting feeling away. "Well... You were feeding me enought alcohol, that means that you wanted something and I have to admit, you are a very good actress. I wasn't even able to realise it fully until you took the money and when I became sober. Thankfully, I'm the kind of person who doesn't get drunk for long due to the amount of alcohol I used to take. It just some kind of temporary thing." Damien explained and I nodded. "Ah... I wasn't told about your super-power. It can actually be called that, right? However, do you actually think that you can stop me from leaving here today?" I stared squarely at him, the corner of my lips pulling into a smirk. "Of

Chapter 48

Nyx's Pov Helene smiled, her eyes glinting with something dangerously close to amusement, "Oh, Nyx. You still don’t get it, do you?"I rolled my shoulders, preparing myself for whatever bullshit was about to come out of her mouth, "Enlighten me, then."She sighed dramatically, as if she was about to tell me a heartbreaking tale, when in reality, I knew it would be nothing but selfish greed wrapped in a sob story."You see, after we escaped, I had this… revelation. We spent so much time hating Victor, running from him, dreaming about taking him down. But then I realized something: power is power, no matter who wields it. And I wanted some of it for myself."I narrowed my eyes, "So you went back? To him? To that monster?"Helene laughed, flipping her hair over her shoulder, "Victor was a monster, sure. But he was a powerful one. And when we left, do you know what I had, Nyx? Nothing. No money. No home. No security. And you..." She pointed a perfectly manicured finger at me "You were so

Chapter 49

Nyx's Pov I looked around, my lips twitching at the amount of damage that Helena's bomb had caused. That Damien wasn't going to be happy about this at all. But I shrugged, it's none of my business anyways, I was barely able to keep myself alive with that giant monstrosity chasing after me. I glanced at it's melting body on the ground and shivered. "So disgusting." I muttered under my breath and left, limping all the way outside. The moment I stepped outside, my eyes caught Alden's and his eyes widened when he saw me. "Nyx... What the fuck happened to you?" "Helena happened. But before you start asking questions, can you help me clean up? I think I broke my foot and a few of my ribs. It hurts so badly." Alden was already moving before I finished speaking. His hands were on me in an instant, gripping my arm to steady me as I leaned against him."Shit, Nyx. You look like you got thrown off a cliff." His voice was tight, edged with concern, as he carefully maneuvered me toward his

Chapter 50

Alden's Pov "How is she?" I asked.A few hours after Nyx was taken by the doctor, one of them finally came out. From the corner of my eyes, I saw blood on his cheeks and my eyes narrowed. She must have been wounded more badly than what I had seen. "Well... She'll survive. Was she hit by a truck and then thrown over a bridge? Because I can't fathom how a little lady like that could have such wounds on her body. Six of her ribs are fractured, two of them dangerously close to puncturing her lung. Her right foot is broken in three places, and she has deep lacerations along her arms and legs. Not to mention the concussion and the internal bruising, we had to drain some blood from her lungs to keep her from suffocating.” I clenched my fists, my jaw tightening as I processed the doctor’s words. What the hell did she even fight in there? She mentioned an experiment but with Nyx's prowess in fighting, a normal sized human shouldn't be able to beat her up this much... She did say it was mor
