No one spoke. Because Alexander had just done the impossible— He chose a stranger. Over his own father’s command. Mr. Alexander’s jaw tightened. ā€œYou’re letting a nobody walk into this house… and stay?ā€ Alexander didn’t look at him. Didn’t even blink. ā€œShe stays.ā€ Simple. Cold. Final. Michelle stood there, confused, scared—unsure if she should feel relieved… or more afraid. The woman beside his father— Lian’s mother— Let out a quiet, disapproving laugh. ā€œYou’ve really lost it, Alexander.ā€ Her eyes swept over Michelle with clear disgust. Alexander’s expression didn’t change. Not even slightly. Because to him— That woman… Was nothing. Not his mother. Never was. His real mother— Was gone. And the only person left who ever truly understood him— Was standing right there. Grandmother. She stepped forward slowly. Carefully. Her eyes fixed on Michelle. ā€œWhat is your name, child?ā€ ā€œā€¦Michelle.ā€ ā€œLook at me.ā€ Michelle obeyed. Their eyes met. And something shifted. Grandmother saw it. That fear. That truth. That danger. She turned calmly. ā€œLet her stay.ā€ That settled it. Even Mr. Alexander didn’t argue. But the tension— Remained. Because Lian stood quietly at the side. Watching everything. Silent. Calculating. A son of this house— But not fully part of it. A step-brother. A different bloodline. A different world. --- [Later – Unknown Location] The room was dark. Cold. Silent. Men stood in a line— Heads lowered. Shaking. Waiting. Because in front of them— Stood him. Fuan. ā€œThe weddingā€¦ā€ he said slowly. ā€œā€¦was supposed to happen tonight.ā€ No one spoke. ā€œMy brideā€¦ā€ A pause. ā€œā€¦is gone.ā€ A guard fell to his knees. ā€œSir—we searchedā€”ā€ CRACK! The gunshot echoed. The guard dropped lifeless. ā€œFind her.ā€ His voice was calm. Too calm. ā€œShe belongs to me.ā€ --- [Alexander’s Company – Next Morning] Kalva couldn’t focus. Not after last night. Lucian leaned beside her. ā€œThat girl… she’s trouble.ā€ Kalva whispered, ā€œThere was blood on her clothesā€¦ā€ Then— The elevator opened. Alexander stepped out. Cold. Unreadable. ā€œKalva.ā€ ā€œYes, sir.ā€ ā€œCome.ā€ No explanation. Just command. --- [Back at the Mansion] Michelle stood alone. Trying to breathe. Trying to stay calm. Then— The door opened. She turned. Lian stepped in. His eyes were no longer calm. ā€œYou shouldn’t have come here.ā€ ā€œI didn’t have a choiceā€¦ā€ He closed the door. Locked it. That sound— Made her heart race. ā€œYou ran from a mafia wedding.ā€ Her breath stopped. ā€œYou were supposed to becomeā€¦ā€ He stepped closer. ā€œā€¦Fuan’s bride.ā€ ā€œNoā€¦ā€ she shook her head, panic rising. ā€œI didn’t agreeā€”ā€ ā€œI know.ā€ Silence. Then— ā€œI’m part of that world too.ā€ Her eyes widened. Fear took over completely. ā€œYou’re… mafia?ā€ Lian didn’t deny it. Didn’t confirm it. But his presence— Said everything. ā€œAnd Alexanderā€¦ā€ He continued. ā€œā€¦is the biggest enemy of the man chasing you.ā€ Everything shattered. ā€œI didn’t escapeā€¦ā€ Her voice broke. ā€œI walked into another warā€¦ā€ ā€œYes.ā€ A pause. Then— ā€œAnd if he finds out you’re hereā€¦ā€ His voice dropped. ā€œThis house becomes a battlefield.ā€ --- [Downstairs] Alexander stood alone. By the window. Still. Silent. The only family he acknowledged— His father. His grandmother. No one else. Not even the woman upstairs. Not even Lian. And yet— The girl he just allowed into his life… Was about to connect all the broken pieces— In the worst way possible. --- T.B.C… šŸ’¬ 120+ COMMENTS ā¤ļø 250+ LIKES šŸ” SHARE
