Adonis walked away, leaving everyone tongue-tied. Natalia was shaken and unable to utter a word. Freddy's jaw dropped, and Sophia, the devil's daughter, flushed with embarrassment and looked confused.The silence was so thick that Natalia felt like strangling Sophia and suffocating her. More importantly, she wondered why Adonis didn't get angry. She sat on the sofa, feeling numb.He must be completely uninterested in her. But she wasn't complaining."Thank the goddess he didn't overreact," Fred said, his voice hardening as he confronted Sophia. "You always seem to lack empathy and act so insensitively. You do this all the time without remorse.""What are you talking about?" she asked, concealing her face behind her hair."You know exactly what he means, whore!" Natalia lashed out. "I hate you so much, Sophia. Adonis just lost his dad, and all your tiny brain can think about is causing him more grief!"Sophia rolled her eyes and reveled in the chaos she'd created."Girl, if you think I

Adonis My body tensed up when I saw my dad's lover. I had definitely stopped calling him "uncle,"as that would be strange and imply an incestuous relationship between him and my dad. I had also lost respect for him."May I come in?" he inquired, standing at the door to my study. I didn't respond with dignity. When he walked in, we were surrounded by a cold, black silence.The fucker looked frightened and sorry, and a tight knot within me begged for release. I had built an erect wall of defense around me."What do you want?" I asked, then stood up to pour myself some coffee. I looked at my reflection in the glass partition; my hair was in desperate need of trimming."I came to see how you are holding up," Axton said, and I gave him a sideways glance."Why the fuck do you care? You've received enough punishment to last your entire life, and I'm confident that the secret affair you had with my dad, which drove my mother away will choke you until you die."A wrinkle appeared across his b

Love radiated through my chest as I gazed at Adonis’s wolf. It looked awkward and animated, but at least it recognized me and wasn't violent."Hey, you," I said with a bubbly tone, kissing its forehead and feeling a deep compassion for both the wolf and my lover. I nuzzled his wolf with joyful tears filling my face."Do you believe me now?" I said softly to it. "I will never hurt you, Adonis, and I know that deep down you believe me. I love and care about you so much. If I had ulterior motives, I would have kept these secrets to myself."The wolf wagged its tail and leaned in. The very air around us seemed electrified, and I loved that the wolf drank in the comfort of my nearness."I love you forever," I said. "I cherish you, and I want you to know that you are worthy. Nothing is going to change that."Our closeness was like a drug, and my heart ached under my breast, knowing that this was a major weakness he had and his enemies were going to exploit him with it.My heart raced, wonde

Despite the air conditioner being on, Sarah felt like she was burning in an oven.Her husband was trying to calm her down over the phone, and even her driver received a piece of her frustration and was surprised that his boss would raise her voice. Sarah was usually mild-mannered, but not now. She was restless and impatient."Are you seriously transferring your aggression onto the poor driver?" her husband asked when she asked the driver if he could find another route."I can't sit here all day. I have to see Sophia today."Sophia hadn't returned any of her calls or messages. The silence was deafening, and Sarah couldn't sleep."I'm sorry, ma'am. There is no alternative route. You have to wait it out."Sarah fiddled with her wedding band, and after what felt like an eternity, they arrived at Sophia's apartm

Natalia was scared to death. She broke into uncontrollable sobs and dialed Adonis's line like a maniac. His number wasn't reachable, and neither was Fred's."Breathe, Natalia, breathe," she said to herself, but she couldn't stop thinking about that dreadful call—her mom's screams that pierced her heart, Sophia's cold words.That bastard was capable of killing her mother, and she knew it. Her words kept playing on repeat: "You have two hours to bring Iris to me or get ready to say goodbye to your mother."Natalia didn't understand what she had done wrong to deserve this and why Sophia was so cold and calculating.

The world felt fresh and full of promise, and I was eager to embrace it all.But my excitement was short-lived when my gaze fell upon Natalia's rigid body. She looked tense and her lips were pressed into a thin line, as if she was struggling to contain a tremble.I sensed that something was amiss and grew concerned."Are you alright? You're acting weird."Her smile faltered before she forced it back into place. "Me? I'm...I'm fine," she stammered. She was nervous and betrayed her true emotions. She led me to a red car parked in the driveway and opened the back door. There was someone in the driver's seat, and I tried to pick out his face. He was a middle-aged man with salt-and-peppe
