The drive to the car dealership was not a very short one as they seemed to have journeyed for quite a while.

On the way there, Vincent asked that they make a stop at an eatery.

When Samuel came across the next eatery, he alerted Vincent and made a stop beside it.

Vincent walked out of the car to get something to eat since he didn’t finish his breakfast out of excitement that morning.

As he got closer to the entrance of the eatery, he turned back to realise that Samuel was not behind him.

Noticing this, he walked back to the car and knocked on the front passenger-seat window.

Samuel rolled down the window for him “Aren't you coming with me?”

“Don’t worry sir, im fine”

“Don’t be ridiculous, I insist”

“Fine sir” Samuel gave a sigh of defeat, finally giving up on his strong headed refusal as he got out of the car and followed Vincent into the eatery.

They went into the restaurant and ordered some takeaway meals and drinks which they carried into the car.

They continued their journey and n

    The manager checked his phone to see the notification as a smile plastered his lips.“Nice doing business with you Mr. Vincenzo, I have received the alert”“What!” Elizabeth was completely confused as she didn’t realise when she accidentally said that out loud.Vincent ordered that the car be driven to his place that very day and gave the Manager the address of his residence.Everyone dispersed leaving Elizabeth alone in utter disbelief as cold shock waves ran through her body.Samuel and Vincent walked out of the car dealership and drove back home while the manager walked away as he called two of his boys to attend to the delivery.Elizabet was still there trying very hard to understand what had just transpired.“Was it all real?”“Was he actually real now”“Or was he just pretending when in reality, the tall blonde guy was behind all the wealth that Vincncent claimed to have acquired?”These thoughts ran through her mind as she couldn't place a finger on one thing.To clear these do

    It didn’t take long before Elizabeth arrived at a giant mansion that was coloured in white and grey, along with a tag and a number by the side.“THE VINCENZO RESIDENCE” The black tag was attached to the wall spelt boldly in gold letters.Struck by amazement, Elizabeth couldn’t believe that Vincent lived there now.Her mind was still filled with so many doubts but she was somewhat convinced when she noticed the red sports car that he came to purchase earlier.Seeing that, she was certain that she wasn’t at the wrong house.She knocked on the gate for a while before someone finally came to answer her.“Good Afternoon Miss” The chef said with a smile.When Vincent got the call from the residence security office earlier, he ordered his chef to attend to his incoming visitor and to also inform her that he wasn’t around while he stayed upstairs in his room.He put his plans for Elizabeth on hold because a sudden matter arose.It didn’t take Vincent a very long time to notice what was going

    Their night had already come to an end as Jessica couldn’t stand the evening any longer.Everything felt so tacky to her, the restaurant, the car and even the water she drank there.She couldn’t believe all that Vincent told her at dinner.All the air in her lungs suddenly stopped flowing as she immediately started coughing.“What’s wrong” Vincent immediately stood up and ran to her side of the table to offer her some water which she refused.“I’m fine”“Just take me home” She said as she got up from her chair and hurriedly walked out of the restaurant, leaving him alone at the table.Vincent ran out to the parking lot, trailing behind Jessica.“Are yo….Vincent I’m fine”“I don’t feel too good, please just take him home”“If you say so then”Before Vincent could open the door for her to enter the car, she quickly helped herself to it.Vincent retreated and went to the other side of the car, getting in as he drove off.Their drive was a very quiet one as they both had nothing to say to

    He stared at the ceiling of his room as he lay on his bed, using both his hands to support his head facing forward, his phone still in his hands.He was in that exact position before he dozed off right after the heart wrenching call he had just received.Laced with immense lack of zeal and an absence of motivation to leave the house that very day, Vincent reluctantly pulled himself out of bed knowing fully well that his schedule had already been fixed.He got up to change his clothes.That was the day he sat aside specifically to review the activities of his consortium.He was going to check out various branches of his consortium and inspect their activities himself.He had people already doing that for him, giving him reports and new developments concerning the various branches, but once in a while he wanted to see things for himself.He walked sluggishly into his closet, picked out a black suit with a pair of shoes that matched perfectly and called Samuel to get one of the best cars

    The main hall of the cruise ship was a very huge opening, probably the largest on the ship.The grand polished space, adorned with marble floors of shiny surfaces and majestic lighting which created a sense of grandeur.Surrounded by a plush carpet drawn right from the centre of the hall where a magnificent staircase leads to the centre of the hall.Complemented by artworks of luxury aesthetics, the omnibus windows of the hall gave out beautiful views of the sea.It had comfortable sitting areas that contained plush couches and fashionable chairs.Everyone had their head hung in the air the instant they left their cabins and stepped into the insanely tall room that evening.Their minds, full of both wonder and amusement as they walked in while looking around.Some people took their seats while others moved around, socialising.There was plenty to eat and drink with towers of food on all tables and waiters walking around and serving drinks to the guests.The large echoey hall was fille

    Vincent replied to her with a straight face, with both hands behind his back. Seeing this, Jessica realised that he still hasn't gotten over the way she acted the other day.“What’s wrong? Are you mad at me?” She asked, pretending not to know what she did.“No Jessica, why would I be mad at you?” He replied, maintaining the look on his straight face.“Come on Vin, it’s not like that”“You see….Something came up and I was in a very bad mood that day”“I didn’t mean all that, you know I still love y….Enough! Vincent interrupted her before she could end her sentence.“Look Vincent” She said as she slowly took his arm and looked straight into his eyes.“Do you mind if we talk about this over a drink….or two?”“I do not wish to drink with…..We both owe each other explanations” Her convincing voice left him no other choice but to agree.He wanted to know what stupid excuse she had already cooked up to serve him.She led him to the lounge and walked over to the bartender to get drinks for

    Vincent spent the last few days of their vacation on the cruise ship in guilt.He had pleaded with Jessica over and over again never to let Jane know what had transpired between them and she reluctantly agreed.Vincent wanted to explain it to Jane himself, but the fear of losing her to a slight misunderstanding prohibited him. Surprisingly, she never spoke to Jane and she also never bothered Vincent again.But he couldn’t help but feel guilty whenever Jane was around him.And each time he came across Jessica, all the blood in his body dried up as he began to boil with so much anger and clench his fists tightly.He regretted ever meeting her at the party that day.He regretted ever inviting her on this cruise ship vacation.She was crazy, deranged and out of her mind.How could he have been so stupid?Was he so blind that he couldn’t read between the lines the entire time?How was he compelled to even sit down and have a drink with the enemy?Vincent couldn't stop asking himself these

    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
