"Let's see how you are going to escape from it this time," Patricia said with a smirk on her face.The men advanced closer towards him, ready to rip him apart into two halves. But then a voice came from above that made them pause."And who is trying to make a mess of my party?" The voice came afterward.There was a sudden calm throughout the hall as everyone seemed to recognize this strange voice.Soon the sound of clicking feet proceeding down the hefty stares could be heard.The hearts of everyone began to beat faster in anticipation of how Christopher will be humiliated."Just at the perfect time. I can't wait for Dad to teach you a really good lesson that you are going to forget for a long time." There was a smirk on her face.A man with a gray beard but dark hair proceeded down the stairs. Even though he was older than most people in the hall, he still had that boyish vibe and handsome face for someone his age.His ripped arms and chest are also worthy of note.Mr. Welson walked

"Huh?" Mr. Welson's eyelashes twitched together with his brown.From what he could say, even though Xier treated her so nicely, he was still in resentment towards her.Mr. Welson's eyes paired around towards his daughter with an inquisitive look on his face, wanting to know what was going on.Even though she was seated close to them, she was still blotting with anger that she didn't understand what was going on."Yes, Dad. Is there a problem?" She inquired with a questioning expression on her face."There sure is. And there will be more if you don't get yourself down here right this moment." He ventured.Even though Patricia was surprised at her father's tune, she obeyed his words the moment he spat it out from his mouth.She had already annoyed him enough for one day to cause even more trouble for him.Even without knowing what was going on, she could already feel her heart racing fast on her chest.But when she finally came closer, she noticed something really strange that made her
Fame Building System Chapter 35
The ears of everyone that was gathered there twitched, waiting for what he was going to say. The anticipation brought the whole crowd into still silence. For some, they would already see a sworn victory, while for others, sweat trickled down from the corner of their faces, biting the lower lips. He opened his mouth to speak, and even the manner of his breath was monitored. "They did agree." Patricia's facial expression fell almost immediately, and that of Xier shot up with a dark smirk on his face. "I knew that he was not going to tell the truth; just tell him he would get his revenge," Patricia swore under her breath. "Such a fool. I knew that he would be scared of getting into trouble with me after what happened earlier," Xier thought. Meanwhile, a long sigh escaped from Mr. Welson's lips; he was disappointed in his daughter's behavior. However, he had always been known to be upright, and even though he didn't like it, he could not deviate from his initial principles just bec

From the look that was on Xier's face, it looked as though he was already ready to rip Christopher apart right from his bones. Christopher's face was already covered with cold sweat. What was he going to do now?" The confusion that flooded his head knew no bonds. He turned over to the rest of the gang who paid so much respect to him with a slight bow. With his hands, he beckoned on one of them to give him the baton in their hands. "I am going to take the first strike." He said, hitting the baton in his hands and walking over slowly to him. There was a deadly smirk on his face and he was about to swing it into motion when he heard a sound from behind that made him hit a sudden pause. "Hey Xier, what do you think it is that you are doing? Hitting a poor guy just because he is below your class? Is that really how you behave?" A feminine voice came forward towards them. It was a stunning lady, putting on a white gown and the most perfect shape. Her body was like a glow in the sunshin
Fame Building System Chapter 37
The men thought that Christopher was doing that just to show up. They laughed at his stupidity, and even Evelyn was frightened, persuading him to step back as her heart raced. "Don't do anything stupid, sir. It seems like he is very high on drugs, and he can be very dangerous in that instance if you try anything funny with him." She added that she was worried that Xier was going to hurt him severely. But instead, he smiled and said, "Don't worry about that; I have got everything under control." He assured them and quickly advanced towards them. In all his life, Xier had never seen anyone act so stupidly in such a manner before and could not help but burst out into laughter. "You are courting your death, aren't you?" He said it with mocking laughter, but Christopher was not worried about his words, not even for a single moment. "You should be the one who's more scared of death." Christopher finally responded, pulling Xier into another shock wave of anger. "You." Xier's hands were
Fame Building System Chapter 38
Right from the very first day that he stepped into school, he had always won the award for the worst-dressed student. He was a natural talent, as some would call it, because it was a school mainly for elites and he seemed to be a low-class citizen. Christopher already knew that it was no use telling them about his fortune. They would only think that he had gone mad. But one thing was certain for sure: action spoke more volumes than words. So it would be left for them to decide if they were correct or not when that day finally arrived. On the day of the party, Christopher decided to sleep with someone else. He had already placed an order for the clothes that were selected by Rachael. It was an exclusive overall that was customized just for him and could not be found anywhere else in the city. "Let's see to what you said earlier," he muttered under his breath. He got dressed as soon as he could; his entry was going to come at the late hour of the school's party. The venue of the
Fame Building System Chapter 39
From what Rachael had already told him initially, there was only one such ware in the whole of the city, and she had made sure that they were customized just for him.Then he could only be sure that Kelly was wearing a fake since he had been told that a fake that looked exactly like the original had also been produced by some fraudsters.“Could it be that this was the technique that he had been using to win the competition all through the years, earning the praise of everyone in the hall?” Christopher thought in his head.Chatter soon began to go wrong in the hall as Kelly leaned forward. Throughout the years, his method of deceiving people has always worked perfectly for him, but this year, it was really strange since what he was putting on was not the original.Could it be that Christopher was the one who was putting on the real dress? He wondered but threw the thoughts off his head quickly. There was certainly no way that it could be possible.The only explanation for this was that
Fame Building System Chapter 40
There was an immediate rampage in the hall. Everyone thought that she was there for Kelly, at least.Who would have believed that such a lady came for such a renowned punk like Christopher.On the other end, Kelly could feel a sense of irritation, anger, and jealousy all at once. Nobody had ever turned him down or treated him in such a rude manner before.He was already gritting under his breath, swearing that he was certainly going to make sure that she paid for it by making her his girlfriend and dumping her before leaving school.Meanwhile, Christopher looked up to catch a glimpse of the stunning lady who was smiling at him; it was Evelyn.Even though they had already seen each other earlier, she could not stop being beautiful by the day.Everyone was at least expecting a hug, but before anyone could know what was going on, she drew him to herself and gave him a tight hug as though they had known each other for ages.Hearts flew out of their places. Legs shook. The jaws were far ap

The man—male—down the alley was Skull .After ten years, after all the executions and burnings, a Skull male was prowling toward her. Pure, solid Skull . There was no escaping him as he emerged from the shadows yards away. The vagrant in the alcove and the others along the alley fell so quiet Mia could again hear those bells ringing in the distant mountains.Tall, broad-shouldered, every inch of him seemingly corded with muscle, he was a male blooded with power. He paused in a dusty shaft of sunlight, his silver hair gleaming.As if his delicately pointed ears and slightly elongated canines weren’t enough to scare the living shit out of everyone in that alley, including the now-whimpering madwoman behind Mia , a wicked-looking tattoo was etched down the left side of his harsh face, the whorls of black ink stark against his sun-kissed skin.The Morse codes could easily have been decorative, but she still remembered enough of the Skull language to recognize them as words, even in such a

What she wants?Mia wasn’t naive. She knew very well that Christopher wouldn’t be able to get out of this mess without her. It seemed he had made the mistake of angering Arthur and at least, she was able to help him. Even if it meant giving up her own freedom.Why she was so nice to the same man who had abandoned her many times when she needed him but now she felt the urge to give herself up to help him… she didn’t know. But he was her brother and she felt somewhat responsible for him.“I… I want my brother safe,” she began to speak after a moment's pause. “I want him to leave alive. I want to see him leave alive and for your men to never go after him again.”“And in return, you’ll take my offer,” he mused. Mia nodded and the smirk on Arthur’s face widened.“That’s a deal,” he responded, his tone final. Mia felt a little bit of relief, even though her heart pounded in her chest.Then, his hand snaked up her arm and she gasped at how warm his palm was on her cool skin. Up her arm, to h

The next morning Mia and the Emissary set off to the King's palace. She had figured out a way to get back without any suspicion and while she had instructed the Emissary to help find Thorne, it was left to her to find a means to get to the location of the Shadow Star.Stepping into the boaders, where the gigantic palace had been built upon, all Mia needed to do was to act as though she had been hurt and with her skills in pretence, no one would question her.The moment she noticed the guards were coming close to her hideout, Mia stepped out, holding one part of her arm and hissing in pain. She looked up to see the guards coming towards her direction. The moment they laid eyes on her, one of them rushed over to help steady her body. Mia looked to see the others moving to her hideout to figure out how she had arrived. As they arrived at the entrance of the mansion, some of the soldiers also rushed over to help her and while they head into the luxurious living room, Mia over hears one o

Anna was taken out of the underground in silence to live in Christopher's mansion and resume the underground at night when she's well rested.Her room was beside Devon's room and well furnished, equally as his own, with luxurious closets large enough to open a boutique.Anna could not stop exclaiming and thought of exactly what was going on.It was the third day she was taking Christopher home after the night she passed out without seeing Christopher himself. She was left alone in the room, only to be taken care of by maids attending to her needs. She needs fresh air, at least, but at the same time, she is scared of breaking the rules.That morning, she had just showered up early and was creaming her body before Christopher walked into her half-nakedness.It was nothing to Christopher, as he has seen her that way several times, but the amusing part is the fact that Anna was covering her body and not throwing herself at him."Out of your clothes! Like right now, put it off." Christop

“How dare you?" Christopher roared like a lion as the champagne got emptied on his dress and flowed freely down his pants. Anna shook terribly, looking for napkins to clean Christopher's suits and shoes. She just emptied a glass of champagne."I'm terribly sorry! I wa---sss" Anna stuttered, trying to complete her words, when Christopher dragged her hair and pulled her up. "You are here to pay your brother's debt, but it's obvious you're not capable!. "Christopher said with a very intimidating voice, letting out goosebumps on Maria's neck."Please, I feel weak! '' Anna begged amidst her tears. She had never felt this way in her entire life, looking for means of survival.She felt her strength leaving her and let her body fall on Devon's hold.Everyone in the VIP room's eyes widened."This baby is indeed grounded!" One of them commented and signaled Christopher to take Anna's body away from him.Before they could move, Christopher gave them a shock. He carried Anna himself to his cl

Without doing extra training between the stacks, Mia found herself less exhausted when she left the library. Christopher had retrieved her from Windhaven after two and a half hours, and she’d already been so bored sitting in Rhys’s mother’s house that she’d nearly smiled to see him. But Christopher ’s face had been tight, his eyes cold and distant, and he’d barely spoken to her when Rhys had appeared. Rhys had barely spoken to her, either, but that was to be expected. It was better if they didn’t speak at all.Yet Christopher hadn’t said more than “I’ll see you later” before leaving again with Rhys after the High Lord had brought them back to the House of Wind, his face still tight and angry.With the extra energy buzzing through her that night, wondering incessantly why Christopher had been so upset, Mia didn’t feel like eating in her room and falling asleep. So she found herself in the doorway of the dining room.Christopher was lounging in his chair, a glass of wine in his hand, st

Hoping Virgil wouldn’t come shove him over the railing for disobeying her orders, he said, “All right. Throw the right hook.”Mia did so. And dropped her damn elbow.“Get back into position.” She did, and he asked, “May I?”Mia nodded, and kept perfectly still as he made minute adjustments to the angle of her arm. “Punch again. Slowly.”She heeded him, and his hand wrapped around her elbow as it began to dip. “See? Keep this up.” He maneuvered her arm back into starting position. “Don’t forget to flow the weight through your hips.” He took her arm, keeping a good foot of distance between their bodies, and moved it through the punch. “Like this.”“All right.” Mia reset herself, and he took a step away. Without his order, she did the punch again. Perfectly.Christopher whistled.“Do that with more force and you’ll shatter a male’s jaw,” he said with a crooked grin. “Give me a combination one-two, then four-five-three, then one-one-two.”Mia ’s brows bunched as she reset herself. Her fee

Five days later, Christopher sat before the desk of the library’s high priestess and watched her enchanted pen move. He’d met Virgil a few times over the centuries—found she had a dry, wicked sense of humor and a soothing presence. He’d made a point not to stare at her hands, or at the face he’d only seen once, when Mor had brought her in so long ago. It had been so battered and bloody it hadn’t looked like a face at all.He had no idea how it had healed beneath the hood. If Madja had been able to save it in a way she hadn’t been able to save Virgil ’s hands. He supposed it didn’t matter what she looked like, not when she had accomplished and built so much with Rhys and Mor within this library. A sanctuary for females who’d endured such unspeakable horrors that he was always happy to carry out justice on their behalf.His mother had needed a place like this. But Rhys had established it long after she’d left this world. He wondered if Azriel’s mother had ever considered coming here, or

Curled up in bed, a book propped on the thick down comforter, Mia was just getting to the sizzling first kiss in her latest novel when a knock thudded on her door.She slammed the book shut and sat up against the pillows. “Yes?”The handle turned, and there he was.Christopher still wore his leathers, the overlapping scales of them full of shadows that made him look like some great, writhing beast as he shut the door.He leaned against the carved oak, his wings rising high above his head like twin mountain peaks.“What?” She slid the book onto the nightstand, sitting up further. His eyes dipped to her sleeveless silk nightgown, then quickly returned to her face. “What?” she demanded again, angling her head. Her unbound hair slid over a shoulder, and she saw him mark that, too.His voice was rough as he said, “I’ve never seen you with your hair down.”She always wore it braided across her head or pinned up. She frowned at the locks that flowed to her waist, the gold amongst the brown g
