"I like meat the way I prepared it just fine," Lina grumbled with an angry jab of her elbows. Kaden let out a smooth chuckle. The sound sent her pulse racing. It was warm and reached the pit of her stomach. He nuzzled his face into her neck, kissing the most sensitive spot. With a low groan, he then pecked her cheek. "I can't get enough of you," Kaden rasped, leaning against her. Lina could feel his hardness pressing into her behind. With a blush, she tried to escape. He gripped her stomach…-

Lina didn't realize how exhausted she was. She had closed her eyes on the cold marble counter and then woken up in a warm bed. When she opened her eyes again, it was already nightfall. Lina knew it was because she hadn't slept the night before. But she wasn't complaining. Kaden was amazing at cuddling. His arm was snug around her waist, hugging her from behind. Even though his powerful body was built with muscles, his other arm served as a great pillow. Lina hugged the blanket and snuggled into his…

Suddenly, Kaden kissed the back of her ears. He gripped her waist and lifted her onto the countertop. Lina was finally at eye level with him. Albeit, he was still taller. She felt the iciness of the counter on her legs, but he slipped in between them, his hands resting on her knees. His hands were warm. She felt a thrill in her heart. "Lina…" Kaden groaned. His voice sent sparks through her body. When his hands slid up to hold her hips, she felt a pulse down below.. God, she wanted him so badly.…

Once they pulled apart, Kaden began to cook her breakfast. He knew she hadn't eaten anything the entire day. The fact that she was still standing was a miracle. He rarely ate food, but he knew humans were weak. It had been centuries since he last experienced humanity, but he recalled her fragile stature. She looked like the wind would blow her out of the room. As Kaden took out the pans and ingredients, Lina glanced at the pill bottle. It was large and had a six-month supply. There was a clear…

Lina pretended she didn't hear him. She stalked to the kitchen, took out a glass, and poured herself iced water. She needed it to cool her boiling blood. She was furious at him for leaving. For not coming back. For ignoring her. She stood by the marble kitchen counter and gulped down the icy water, even though it stung her lungs. Suddenly, something slammed down next to her. When she glanced down, it was a bottle of pills. All her blood vessels froze. "What's this?" Lina demanded. "Poison?" Kaden…

Lina froze. All she heard was the sound of her heart plummeting in disbelief. Rina let out a horrified cry, followed by her staggering. SMASH! One of the vases was in Rina's way. When her hands violently flew back in shock, it knocked the porcelain over. "YOU!" Rina shrieked, pointing an accusing finger towards her granddaughter. Lina blinked. She looked behind her shoulder. What? Was there someone behind her? No one. "Me?" Lina realized, placing a hand on her chest.. "Y-you—" Rina…

said arranged for her grandparents to wait in the living room. Then she quickly got ready for the day. It took her less than ten minutes to come downstairs, freshly dressed and teeth brushed. They grumbled about the time she took. Lina ignored it. The entire car ride to the Yang Main Mansion was filled with silence. Lina could feel her grandmother's scrutinizing eyes. She knew her grandmother was checking for her teachings. Lina was the picture-perfect granddaughter that Rina wanted. She kept her…

All he wanted was a family. All Kaden desired was to hold their child. It was what he worked so hard for. He wanted nothing more than to build a family with her. He loved her to that extent. They were this close to having a family in their first life. But because of their mistakes, the dream was cut short. Now, they were in the present. The time was ripe. He was rich. She was married to him. What was the problem? Her career? The heir race? All of that could be damned. "She doesn't need a job.. I can…

RING! RING! RING! Lina let the phone ring until it died down. She didn't feel like talking to him. There was nothing to talk about. If he wanted to schedule something, he could text her. With a heavy sigh, she glanced out the tinted window. Luckily, Atlantis didn't call her again. For his sake, she let him think she didn't hear the phone call. If she canceled the call right away, it'd look suspicious. As much as she didn't like his approval, she didn't want to burn bridges. She needed Medeor…

Lina had endured enough of Elaine and Samantha. The bullying she had suffered in middle and high school. The taunts. The teasing. The words that wrecked her self-esteem. She was going to pay them back for it. Mercy would be an understatement. "What are you doing here?" Elaine asked in disbelief the minute she opened her door and saw who it was. Lina glanced at the large "for sale" sign outside the mansion. "Did you really think you'd get away with it?" Lina deadpanned. Elaine froze.. Her pupils…
