You Re So Vain You Probably Think This

Under his gaze, with a slow and deliberate motion, the brunette beside him grips the railing and carefully leans back. Aiden's first instinct was to step closer, but the girl's raspy voice stopped him. "You'd be surprised how often I do this, sir." Sensing she had startled him, and perhaps even disturbed him, she added the explanation she knew he needed: "Surely you've had moments in your life when you wished everything would just end," she said, closing her eyes and leaning back a little further. "When I do this, I realize that I don't want to die." The man rested his elbows on the railing and let out a long sigh. She was the first woman in his life he couldn't understand or see through. A unique and complex character, but damn beautiful. "Remind me once again, for the fourth time now, how you passed the psychological evaluation, Miss Joy?" The profound silence between them had become uncomfortable. Aiden felt he should rephrase the question, soften it somehow. For the first time since he'd met her, he felt he'd crossed a line. "Mr. Black," she finally said with a sigh, "when I do this, I realize that I want to live and be happy." Aiden turned his head slightly toward her. Something in his gaze had changed, and Tatum noticed. That's why she casually added: "As for the psychological exams," she chuckled, letting go of the railing, "be assured that I don't have that much cash lying around just to pass them all, only to protect your ass." The man's chuckle put her at ease. She didn't need anyone's pity.

The Sovereign of the Heart A sovereign born from love He forged the world with broken hands He crafted life from threads of dreams, For in his heart, there bloomed a seed The Seed of Love shaped from Obsession and greed And in his soul, a shadow grew— A yearning deep, unknown, and true. For all the life he’d once bestowed, He felt the weight of love erode, And in the quiet, darkened hours, He longed for death’s cold, Love He sought the stillness, to exist in the dark And found peace in death's embrace. For love, he gave the world its breath, Yet For love, he also brought it death The sovereign of the Heart A sovereign lost, forever. A cycle repeats forever. (I don’t own the cover. Pls try this out it’s more than just brain rot I hope maybe not lol.)

[Warning: Mature Content] The next morning, Luna was lying on the edge of the bed without clothes. There were Benjamin's teeth marks on Luna's body. Then Luna opened her eyes and when she slowly tried to get up, she felt a sharp pain in her lower body. Luna was feeling so much pain in her body that she was unable to move. When Luna saw all her clothes on the floor and her condition, her eyes widened in surprise. Luna did not remember anything. What happened to her last night? She did not remember anything about what happened to her at the party last night?! Just then Benjamin comes out of the bathroom. Benjamin was wearing only a towel. And his six packs were visible. Fair complexion, deep blue eyes and handsome face! Benjamin was a big businessman! But his body was exactly like a hero. Luna used to work in Benjamin's company, but Luna had never seen Benjamin so closely before. Then seeing Luna, Benjamin comes to the mirror and fixes his hair, then signs a cheque of 10 crores and hands it over to Luna and says, "If you think this is not enough, ask for more." On hearing this from Benjamin, Luna angrily tears the cheque and throws it on Benjamin's face and says, "I don't want your money! Who do you think you are? If you are rich, can you force yourself on someone?" Luna covers herself with a blanket and goes to the bathroom. On hearing this from Luna, Benjamin's face smiles and Benjamin looks at the torn cheque and says, "Crazy girl!" After saying this, Benjamin takes out clothes from the wardrobe and gets ready by wearing a black 3-piece suit. After a while, Luna comes out of the bathroom wearing other clothes. Benjamin was sitting on the sofa, smoking a cigarette and looking at Luna. Luna looked at Benjamin once and tried to open the door to quickly get out of the room but she could not open the door, the door was closed and only Benjamin knew the password to open the door. Then Benjamin gets up from the sofa and comes to Luna and looking into her eyes says. "What is your name?" "I don't tell my name to strangers!" Luna said looking at Benjamin with disgust. Hearing this from Luna, Benjamin comes close to Luna's face and says. "Until you tell me your name, you cannot leave this room!" Hearing this from Benjamin, Luna turned her face to the other side and said. "Luna!" "Luna!" Benjamin said while holding Luna's waist and pulling her towards him. Seeing this, Luna started looking at Benjamin in surprise, then Benjamin opened the lock of the door. When Luna saw the door open, she immediately got away from Benjamin and went out of the room.

"Is it pity?" I asked, my nemesis. “No, it’s interest,” you replied. Your eyes, once bluer than the deepest lake in the Empire, were losing their light. As an assassin, I have spilled much blood, but there was one person I never wanted to kill – you, Sion Belpast, the Grand Duke of the North, my master’s enemy. Yet, I destroyed everything about you, and now, charged with treason, you are dying before my eyes at the scaffold. I mustn’t cry. I don’t even deserve to. The only man who ever defeated me in combat, the only one who treated me, the monster, as human, I confessed to you. “I respected you.” “White butterfly, may your soul emerge from the darkness.” With those words, you died. But I couldn’t harbor any doubts. My master, the Duchess of the South, Medea, who took me in and raised me when I lost my memory, her bidding was always right. Tomorrow, my duchess will become the adopted granddaughter of the childless Emperor. The future Empress of the Empire. But that night, as I announced the death of the Duke of the North, she stabbed me in the heart. She whispered in my ear: “The real granddaughter of the Emperor is you. You are the lost princess from your childhood.” My whole life was built on a lie. I died and returned to the past, where I met you again, Duke. In this life, I will keep you hidden and make you the Emperor’s successor, to atone for my past life. May I stay by your side in this life?
