Why was Jane breaking Jim like this? Why on earth was this happening? How on earth had he let it happen? These were the thoughts that plagued his mind as he tried to make sense of the situation.

The more he looked into Jane's eyes, the more he realized just how far gone she was. The spark that used to be in her eyes whenever she was with him was no longer there and it was all because of that stupid man. He felt humiliated in his own home.

Jane had brought in another man into their home and possibly bed.

He hated to admit it but it was what it looked like. The strange man had not only been half naked but he'd also been staring at her as if he wanted to devour her right there and there but was restraining himself.

He wanted to kill him,wanted to beat the man to a bloody pulp for daring to touch his wife in his presence.

"Is that why you've been so distant lately? Why you barely want to cuddle or be around me?" He asked. He was aware of how pathetic he sounded but he didn't care. His

    Another sumptuous morning where Vincent had taken a day off work. He stared down the ocean as they moved gracefully across his newly renovated apartment. There was something about nature that intrigued Vincent and he simply loved to get in tune with it.He heard the door open and although acted like he didn't, he knew there was only one person with him in the house and that was Jane, his beloved wife.Arms wrapped around his neck, he felt her breath on his neck and simply placed his hands on hers, rubbing it ever so slightly.."Babe?" Jane called after a minute of staying in that position."Yea?" Vincent answered."I have a news and I don't know if you would like it." Vincent turned around to look at Jane. She had that typical face she made, when she wanted to request for something."So you remember Jeremy? My cousin?" Vincent paused for a moment, trying to remember that name and then snapped his finger as the image came to his head."Ofcourse! I remember Jeremy." He replied with a

    They both laid on the bed, so exhausted after what seems like three hours sex if not more. It was the best and they wished it never ended. Ella, crawled up and laid next to Vincent , holding his naked body as he did same to hers. They just stayed like newly wedded couple on their honeymoon.“You were so good. An expert i must say. Where did you learn how to? And why ask me to have your ass as well?” Vincent was curious to know.“I just wanted it. The sex was too good that I wanted to try new things. Penetration won't be hard since I'm already wet. And also, I love you.” Ella said shyly covering her face.Women are funny creatures. First Ella was so amazing, doing all the work and going wild but after that, she turned back to a little baby. A calm loving baby. He couldn't resist how cute she was looking.“Nice one and I love you too.” He said back and kissed her forehead, then grabbed her naked body to his.They slept off and after some minutes, Vincent heard someone calling his name

    At the company, Jane was simmering as she flipped through the pages of one of the stockpile of documents waiting to be reviewed before the next one. That was why she was scared, instead of being happy. When she has been promoted by her boss to be his secretary. She had experienced a mild sense of grief with it because, it felt like she had been trapped before she could tell her boss how she felt. He was a workaholic who didn't give a hoot about his employees, well, unless they broke down due to stress.“God, for how long will i keep doing this?” She cried out in frustration.That was why she was flared up as she gazed vacantly across the room, the file she was carrying suspended on the air. She knew that she was slowly approaching breaking point. An approaching footsteps drew her back to reality. She hastened what she was doing, knowing that she would be in for serious trouble if he caught her not doing anything. At some point she was able to drift along and rest, but that was only

    When Vincent arrived at the slated restaurant, he was already minutes late and he hated the cold weather, which had propelled him to use a leather jacket. He looked around the whole place and found Jessica seated at the edge, with the menu card in her hands."I was beginning to think that you wouldn't make it Vincent." Jessica said, the moment Vincent arrives at the seat."Let's go straight to the point." Vincent demanded, but a hand gesture from Jessica ordering him to stop, would force him to hold his horses."How about we act like civil humans and order meals and eat....think of it more like a date." Jessica stated."I am not here for any stupid date. I came here with a note of warning to you. That stunt you pulled back there at my house yesterday, I don't want it to repeat itself." Vincent warned.Jessica rolled her eyes and leaned back to the chair, staring at Vincent unfazed by any of his threat. "It pains me each time I realize that the only wrong I have ever done against you i

    When Isaac arrived at his apartment, the weather had become warm once more and he turned on the air conditioner, while heading to his room to change into something simple. It was a long day and the night seemed to be a little bit long, he had hoped. However seeing some of the mess in the room got him pissed. When was Polly ever going to learn to arrange the entire house? He wondered.While he went down to get the pillows, he noticed something unfamiliar. He looked to see Polly's slippers at the front of his bathroom. Polly never used his bathroom before, so what was going on? He wondered as he made his way, slowly and silently to the door of the bathroom, where he leaned closer to get a grasp of what was happening.The shower was running and it appeared that someone was having their bath. The moment he opened the door, Isaac yelled out at the top of the voice as the scene of horror displayed itself right before his eyes.He was staring at the lifeless body of Polly, who appeared to h

    Vincent was surprised by how horrified she looked. It was clear that whatever was going on in her mind regarding Jessica, must have brought her terrible traumas."I just need big information regarding her whereabouts. I need to understand that she is okay." Vincent lied through his teeth. He noticed the woman looking everywhere and then leaned forward to his side, apparently with the intent to tell him something. "Jessica was a crazy girl. When we discovered anomaly with her, we had to transfer her to the hospital, where she was given a therapist to stay with." Vincent froze for a second. All thoughts about Jessica flying through the course of his head.It was no wonder she acted strange. He thought to himself."Can I know where this therapist lives?" Vincent asked and almost immediately, the woman pulled her phone out and looked through the contact and handed it over to him."That's her number." She revealed and Vinc

    Vincent couldn't take any of what the therapist was saying to him any longer. He wanted to be away from that place, he needed to reach out to his wife. "I will uhmm, I will be on my way." He announced and got up and left the room, even as the therapist wished to explain something to him.As he pulled into his car, he tried ringing Jane's line, but it wasn't going through and the moment he turned on the ignition of his car, he heard a beep on the phone and checked through. He gasped the moment he noticed Jane on the bed all asleep.It wasn't something bad, but the reality that it was an anonymous individual who had taken that photo horrified him. There was only one person, who could pull such a thing and that was Jessica.Vincent drove through the road like a raging bull.

    Closing her eyes, Irene unspooled her magic into a gentle, probing thread, and laid a palm on that splattered star atop his spine.The cold slammed into her, spikes of it firing through her blood and bones.Irene reeled back as if she’d been given a physical blow.Cold and dark and anger and agony—She clenched her jaw, fighting past this echo in the bone, sending that thread-thin probe of power a little farther into the dark.The pain would have been unbearable when it hit him.Irene pushed back against the cold—the cold and the lack and the oily, unworldly wrongness of it.No magic of this world, some part of her whispered. Nothing that was natural or good. Nothing she knew, nothing she had ever dealt with.Her magic screamed to draw back that probe, move away—“Irene .” His words were far away while the wind and blackness and emptiness of it roared around her—And then that echo of nothingness … it seemed to awaken.Cold filled her, burned along her limbs, creeping wider, encirc

    “Will it be hours every day that you work on him?” Nesryn’s words were steady, almost flat, and yet … The woman was not a creature who took well to a cage. Even a gilded one such as this.“I would recommend,” Irene said to Nesryn over a shoulder, “that if you have other duties or tasks to attend to, Captain, these hours would be a good time for that. I shall send word if you are needed.”“What about moving him around?”The lord’s eyes flashed at that.And though Irene was predisposed to chuck them both to the ruks, she noted the lord’s simmering outrage and self-loathing at the words and found herself saying, “I can handle most of it, but I believe Lord Westfall is more than capable of transporting himself.”Something like wary gratitude shot across his face. But he just said to Nesryn, “And I can ask my own damn questions.”Guilt flashed across Nesryn’s face, even as she stiffened. But she nodded, biting her lip, before she murmured to Vincent , “I had some invitations yesterday.”

    Vincent shot Irene back an equally displeased look the moment Kashin paused to sip his wine, and then launched question after question to the prince regarding his life. Helpful information, he realized, about their army.He was not the only one who realized it. Arghun cut in while his brother was midsentence about the forges they had constructed near their northern climes, “Let us not discuss business at dinner, brother.”Kashin shut his mouth, ever the trained soldier.And somehow Vincent knew—that fast—that Kashin was not being considered for the throne. Not when he obeyed his eldest brother like any common warrior. He seemed decent, though. A better alternative than the sneering, aloof Arghun, or the wolflike Hasar.It did not entirely explain Irene ’s utter need to distance herself from Kashin. Not that it was any of his business, or of any interest to him. Certainly not when Irene ’s mouth tightened if she so much as turned her head in Vincent ’s direction.He might have calle

    Vincent waited until Nesryn had been gone for a good thirty minutes before he summoned Kadja. She’d been waiting in the exterior hallway and slipped inside his suite mere moments after he’d called her name. Lingering in the foyer, he watched the serving girl approach, her steps light and swift, her eyes downcast as she awaited his order.“I have a favor to ask you,” he said slowly and clearly, cursing himself for not learning Halha during the years Levi had studied it.A dip of the chin was her only answer.“I need you to go down to the docks, to wherever information comes in, to see if there’s any news about the attack on Rifthold.” Kadja had been in the throne room yesterday—she’d undoubtedly heard about it. And he’d debated asking Nesryn to do some searching while she was out, but if the news was grimhe didn’t want her learning it alone. Bearing it alone, all the way back up to the palace. “Do you think you could do that?”Kadja lifted her eyes at last, though she kept her head

    She’d known his age, but Irene had still not expected the former captain to look so … young.She hadn’t done the math until she’d walked into that room and seen his handsome face, a mix of caution and hope written across the hardened, broad features.It was that hope that had made her see red. Had made her ache to give him a matching scar to the slender one slicing across his cheek.She’d been unprofessional in the most horrific sense. Never—never had she been so rude and unkind toward any of her patients.Mercifully, Hasar had arrived, cooling her head slightly. But touching the man, thinking of ways to help him …She had not meant to write the list of the last four generations of Towers women. Had not meant to write her mother’s name over and over while pretending to record his information. It had not helped with the overwhelming roaring in her head.Sweating and dusty, Irene burst into Hadiza ’s office nearly an hour later, the trek from the palace through the clogged, narrow str

Even Nesryn blinked at the frank question.“Yes,” he said tightly, fighting the heat rising in his cheeks.She looked between them, assessing. “Have you used it to completion?”He clenched his jaw. “How is that relevant?” And how had she gleaned what was between them?Irene only wrote something down.“What are you writing?” he demanded, cursing the damned chair for keeping him from storming to rip the paper out of her hands.“I’m writing a giant no.”Which she then underlined.He growled, “I suppose you’ll ask about my bathroom habits now?” “It was next on my list.”“They are unchanged,” he bit out. “Unless you need Nesryn to confirm.” Irene merely turned to Nesryn, unruffled. “Have you seen him struggle withit?”“Do not answer that,” he snarled at Nesryn.Nesryn had the good wits to sink into a chair and remain quiet.Irene rose, setting down the pen, and came around the desk. The morning sunlight caught in her hair, bouncing off her head in a corona.She

    So Vincent had, half paying attention to the meal unfolding before him, half monitoring every word and glance and breath of those around him.Despite their youngest sister’s death, the heirs made the meal lively, conversation flowing, mostly in languages Vincent did not know or recognize. Such a wealth of kingdoms in that hall, represented by viziers and servants and companions—the now-youngest princess, Duva, herself wedded to a dark-haired, sad-eyed prince from a faraway land who kept close to his pregnant wifeand spoke little to anyone around him. But whenever Duva smiled softly at himVincent did not think the light that filled the prince’s face was feigned. And wondered if the man’s silence was not from reticence but perhaps not yet knowing enough of his wife’s language to keep up.Nesryn, however, had no such excuse. She’d been silent and haunted at dinner. He’d only learned that she’d bathed before it thanks to the shout and slamming door in her chambers, followed by a huff

    Hadiza ’s face darkened. Not with ire, but memory. “I was once asked to heal a man who was injured while evading capture. After he had committed a crime so unspeakable … The guards told me what he’d done before I walked into his cell. They wanted him patched up so he could live to be put on trial. He’d undoubtedly be executed—they had victims willing to testify and proof aplenty. Eretia herself saw the latest victim. His last one. Gathered all the evidence she needed and stood in that court and condemned him with what she had seen.”Hadiza ’s throat bobbed. “They chained him down in that cell, and he was hurt enough that I knew … I knew I could use my combat to make the internal bleeding worse. They’d never know. He’d be dead by morning, and no one would dare question me.” She studied the vial of blue tonic. “It was the closest I have ever come to killing. I wanted to kill him for what he had done. The world would be better for it. I had my hands on his chest—I was ready to do it. Bu

    Of all the rooms in the Torre Cesme, Irene Towers loved this one best.Perhaps it was because the room, located at the very pinnacle of the pale-stoned tower and its sprawling complex below, had unparalleled views of the sunset over Antica.Perhaps it was because this was the place where she’d felt the first shred of safety in nearly ten years. The place she had first looked upon the ancient woman now sitting across the paper- and book-strewn desk, and heard the words that changed everything: You are welcome here, Irene Towers.It had been over two years since then.Two years of working here, living here, in this tower and in this city of so many peoples, so many foods and caches of knowledge.It had been all she’d dreamed it would be—and she had seized every opportunity, every challenge, with both hands. Had studied and listened and practiced and saved lives, changed them, until she had climbed to the very top of her class. Until an unknown healer’s daughter from Benjamin was appr
