“The truth.”Eric’s eyebrows twitched, and he frowned at her. “Then you need to put it on me.”Ruby chuckled as he was still trying to protect the lying evil woman. “If that's how he wants to be. Fine. I will let him know I am not easy to be bullied either. We can both play this game,” thought Ruby. Samantha’s hands clenched into a ball. Anger boils in her chest that her face turned bright red, as Ruby was trying to embarrass her. She was infuriated that Ruby knew of the issues. Ruby is trying to humiliate her in front of everyone, especially Eric. She is purposely trying to make Eric remember that Ella claimed it was her who started the rumor. But luckily, she was smart enough to tell that stupid maid to take the fault if anything bad was to happen. Ella was dumb enough to claim everything was her idea, or else Samantha would have taken the fall. If the incident surfaces, she will claim that it was the maid who spread the rumors. She will also say that the maid was lying to save her

Eric stared in disbelief that Ruby took the challenge. "I will see you all in one week.” Ruby turned on her heels and walked away.That night when she was returning to the Forbidden Mountain, she found Eric waiting at the two boulders that looked like dragons.“What are you doing here?” asked Ruby.“I came here to talk to you,” said Eric.“Shouldn’t you be with Samantha?”Eric didn’t say anything.“Where is she?” asked Ruby looking around Eric.“Who?” asked Eric.“Your childhood sweetheart.”“What about her?”“Well, she’s either going to come out crying to hug you or pretend to be hurt while running to embrace you, so which is it this time?”“You know what, I really came here to help you. But-”“I don’t need your help.”“Fine, don’t come crying to me when you lose.”“Don’t worry, I won’t.”“Good.”“Not like it would do me good either way. You’re just going to yell at me, like you always do.”“No, I don’t.”“Yes, you do. I got the scar to prove it.”“What scar.”“It’s on my back. I eve

Rupert was trying to help Rebecca up as she landed in some chairs, and she was coughing up blood. She was crying as she wasn’t able to move her body and was in pain from the punch. The crowd was silent at first and then people started shouting from all directions. “Who says she’s trash? She just sent that cocky prick off the stage. She’s able to win a level two magician and spiritual power, she’s quite good! Go Ruby! Ruby!”Eric was shocked. His eyebrows narrowed at Ruby. He thought that Ruby was indeed a smart woman. She was able to come up with a foolproof plan to get into the enemies lair. They were able to steal the Secret Map without being detected. She have hidden talents such as knowledge of medicines and poisons. So, what else is there that she is keeping secret. Just who is she exactly? Eric stroked his chin as he was staring at Ruby. "What exactly is she hiding?" thought Eric. Ruby stood there on the stage in her light blue dress and white fur around her off top shoulder dr

“Ruby!” shouted Eric. She looked at him with disgust. Glaring at him with hatred she turned to leave. “Ruby, stop!” shouted Eric again. He caught her wrist as she was trying to get off the stage. Slap! Her hand went across his face! “Don’t touch me with your filthy hands!” exclaimed Ruby. There was silence around the stage. Eric was shocked! He grabbed her arm and pulled her close. “Stay away from me!” “You dare hit me!” hissed Eric with fiery in his eyes. Ruby was struggling to break free, but Eric held tight to her. She slapped him with her other hand. Eric, still in shock stood there. “And keep YOU and YOUR dirty woman away from me!” shouted Ruby. Ruby pushed him hard, and he lost grip of her. Eric stared at her with disbelief. “Disgusting!” Ruby shouted at him and ran. Eric was breathing hard and fast as he was tried to hold onto his anger. He saw Ruby running and was about to chase after her. Kevin grabbed him by the arm and said, “Don’t, Eric.” Eric stared at Rub

“No!” whispered Eric in her ears. He was smiling at her handsomely.“You’re hurting me.”“This is nothing compared to what you have done to me,” said Eric as he gripped her harder in his arms. “If you want me to say sorry, then I’m sorry.”“Not good enough.”“Then what do you want?”“YOU! I want YOU!” exclaimed Eric. He was squishing his body into Ruby as he held her tightly.“What?” gasped Ruby as she was trying to breathe against his body.“You heard me. I want you to pay me with your body.”“No.”“That’s not an option!” Eric tightening his grip around her waist.Ruby gasped and said, “I won’t do it.”“You don’t understand, I’m not giving you any choice,” said Eric, wickedly smiling. Ruby was startled by his expression. She wasn’t sure what he was planning to do, but whatever it is, it isn’t good.Eric pulled her by her arm and pulled her inside her home. Once inside he kicked the door shut with his foot and put a spell to lock the door.Ruby was shocked as he locked the door. Stru
