The news hadn’t absorbed into her fully the first time he said it. Anderson had to repeat himself again before Melissa understood the gravity of her situation.Nicholas was dead.Behind that thick door were an array of dead bodies in a freezer and Nicholas’s was one of them.Her fiance Nicholas, the man she was going to get married to, the man that loved her like no one else could, the man that had promised her forever was now behind that door, his corpse embalmed in the freezer. Fuck. It had better be a dream.Her shoulders sagged and her eyes welling up with tears that flowed unchecked down her cheeks. So she would never see him again? Never hear his laugh, see him smile, see him on the altar, next to her and wedded in Holy Matrimony? She would never be his wife, bear his kids and make a family with him?Was that what this meant?Saying the news hit her like a tidal wave was an immense understatement. Her body trembled with the shock of loss. Uncontrollable sobs wracked her frame,
Aiden's eyes widened as Kierra and her twin sister stepped forward, their faces completely identical — their eyes, their hair, theit walking steps, everything was the same and he could hardly tell the difference. He couldn't help but feel a rush of surprise and it was hard for him to digest what was unfolding before him. "Aiden?" Kierra's asked — he knew it was her because he was sure her twin sister didn't know his name. She was the one in a pink, flowery patterned sun–dress and she had her hair in a ponytail. And then, it all clicked – the moments of inexplicable behavior, the occasional shifts in demeanor. Kierra's twin was the missing link, the reason behind the occasional confounding encounters.Aiden, still absorbing the revelation, muttered, "So, you have a twin... That explains everything." That was the reason why most times, it seemed as though she didn't remember him. It was because he met with her twin!Seeing the confusion on Aiden's face, Gabriel decided to speak up
A knock on his office's door knocked him out of his thoughts and he looked up to see Gabriel entering into his office. He came in and Aiden waited for the girls to follow behind him, or at least, Kierra, but nobody else came in. He arched his brows, "Where are they, Gabriel?" he asked. "Well, they refused to come back with me." Gabriel stated and Aiden's brows furrowed in annoyance, and angered scowl sterning his expression. "What?" He explained, shooting up from his chair and banging his fists on the table. "Why would they do that?' "Well, I don't really understand why. But one was rambling about how she felt all of this was a big old scam, and the other one explicitly explained how she was uninterested in seeing your face. She further said that if she had known it was you behind this all along, she wouldn't have bothered to involve herself." Gabriel narrated and that was enough to sober up Aiden's annoyance. The last one was definitely Kierra, she was still very mad at him. An

Melissa's heart pounded in her chest as she swiftly ended the phone call with Anderson. Without wasting a moment, she grabbed her bag, slinging it over her shoulder in a hurried motion. Turning to Cynthia, she urgently instructed, "Cancel all my appointments for today. I'll be out of the office." Cynthia nodded in acknowledgment.The office seemed to blur as Melissa hurriedly made her way out, her heels clicking on the polished floors. She briskly walked to the elevator, her mind racing with a mix of fear and anticipation. The elevator dinged, and the doors slid open. She entered into the lift and the minute long journey seemed to stretch for all of eternity.As she exited the building, the cool breeze hit her face, and she quickened her pace towards the parking lot. Unlocking her car, she hopped in, the engine roaring to life as she keyed it. Her hands gripped the steering wheel tightly as she drove, her mind preoccupied with worries about Nicholas.Of course, it was him.Fidgeting
Nathan and his father, Mr. Richardson, sat in the elegant living room of their home. The aroma of aged wine lingered in the air as they each held crystal glasses, taking measured sips.Nathan, with a furrowed brow, finally broke the thoughtful silence. "Dad, how did you even find out about the Blue Diamond Society? I mean, it's like this secret society, right?"Mr. Richardson leaned back in his plush chair, a faint smile playing on his lips. "Well, the Blue Diamond Society has been around for a long, long time. It's like a clandestine network, always in the shadows, weaving its influence. After the unfortunate incident with Aiden's family, they went into exile, but now, they're back."Nathan's curiosity heightened. "Back? Why now?"His father took another sip of wine, his gaze distant for a moment. "Well, my son, timing is everything. And the return of the Blue Diamond Society coincides with a shift in power, in opportunities. It's an old alliance finding new footing in a changing worl
Aiden, still taken aback by Katherine's unexpected appearance, managed to compose himself enough to ask the burning question."What are you doing here, Katherine?" he inquired, a mixture of surprise and skepticism etched on his face.Katherine, with a faint smile, responded, "I came to apologize, Aiden. I know things have been complicated, and I wanted to clear the air. Honestly, I'm not the one who leaked the video or images. It must be someone else. Honestly.” He furrowed his brows, absorbing the information. The gravity of the situation seemed to hang in the air, and he wasn't sure whether to trust Katherine's words.To emphasize her sincerity, Katherine extended a gift bag toward him. "I brought you a friendly 'I'm sorry' pie and some wine. Let's just sit down, have a slice, and talk things through."As Aiden hesitated, she playfully added, "And don't worry, I hope Hope is fast asleep because tonight might just get a bit more interesting. I'm planning on staying over."Aiden's ey
