Ryan's heart skipped a beat as panic began to settle in. The invitation card, his golden ticket to the evening's event, was missing. The realization hit him like a cold wave as he frantically searched his pockets once more, hoping against hope that he might have missed it somehow. "I'm telling the truth. Please, there must be some mistake," Ryan pleaded, his voice edged with desperation. The dim lighting of the entrance did little to hide the distress on his face.The bouncer, unimpressed and unmoved by Ryan's plea, crossed his arms. "No card, no entry. Those are the rules," he stated flatly, his gaze stern and unyielding.Ryan took a deep breath, trying to collect his thoughts. He knew he had to act quickly or risk missing the event entirely. "Listen, I understand the situation, but I'm expected inside. Could you please check the list?

'curses' He groaned as he felt the rejuvenating warm energy pulsate from the ring and spread all over his body while he laid down in the ditch looking up at the distant night sky.He was at the edge of death and the healing abilities of the ring prevented him from taking that last step. He struggled to grin as he thought of gus life so far, about a month ago he had gone from not giving a shit about his life to actually wanting to live so badly. The ring had given him hope and had well brought doom to his doorstep and at this moment a warm feeling pulsated from the ring and he felt the injury close.

He tried to feel at ease too when he saw the bed was empt
Ms. Nicholson, nice to meet you. How can I help you?” Ryan’s eyes widened when he saw Emily walking toward him, but his gaze turned cold in a moment.“What a coincidence seeing you here.”Emily choked back the speech she had prepared to explain herself and greeted Ryan stiffly. She did not believe it when her mother told her of Ryan’s new love interest. Who would have thought that it was true? Although they were divorced, Emily felt a little uncomfortable seeing her ex-husband being with another woman. There was an awkward and uneasy feeling in her heart.“Mr. Rhys, is she a friend of yours?”Sonya sized Emily up. According to her female intuition, she could detect a hint of hostility from this woman standing before them.“She’s my ex-wife,” Ryan replied.“Really?” Sonya raised her eyebrows and gave Emily a charming smile. “Hi, I’m Sonya Harmon. Nice to meet you.”She stretched out her hand to shake Emily’s. Although her actions seemed friendly enough, the atmosphere around her was sl

Phil frowned, he couldn't believe his eyes. Ryan knew Mrs Sonya? How? Their paths should definitely not cross, Mrs Sonya was a big swan and Ryan is a nobody, a frog at the bottom of the well. But reality was before him, he tried to fathom their relationship as he forced a smile to salvage the situation. "Oh Mrs Sonya my apologies I didn't realize he was one of your assistants," Phil smiled at the stunning beauty in front of him. It had to be so, he was probably just a worker and nothing more. Mrs Sonya humphed and waved her hands at him turning her back to look at Ryan. Ryan nodded at her, "Mrs Sonya," he smiled as she approached him. But Phil wasn't done, he was going to introduce himself to Mrs Sonya, this was his chance. Emily was besides him but he didn't care less, if he could get the attention of a beauty with such a status then who was Emily? Emily was just one of his playthings that he used to while away time.
