Chapter 3 Madison I woke up feeling like I’d been hit by a truck – a very sexy, Alexander Knight-shaped truck. My body ached in places I’d forgotten existed, and my inner thighs bore the telltale bruises of last night’s activities. “Get it together, Madison,” I muttered to my reflection
Chapter 2 Madison His presence was intoxicating. Alexander’s cologne wrapped around me, lingering like dark spices and something earthy. My pulse quickened as he leaned in, our faces just inches apart. “You’re here,” he murmured. “Mr. Knight, what’s going on?” My voice trembled. I placed a hand on his chest,
Chapter 1 Madison I lifted my gaze from the computer screen as the elevator dinged. A woman in a red dress strutted toward me, her heels clicking against the marble floor like a timer counting down to chaos. “I’m here to see Alexander.” She planted her manicured hands on my
Chapter 552 Some of the people who had already received gold returned with their relatives. More villagers kept arriving. What started as twenty people had grown into nearly fifty, and the crowd was still swelling. Alex’s eyes shifted to the side. The two cultivator women in blue and yellow robes
Chapter 551 Alex was the King of Estoria and the richest man in Prussia. He owned five storage rings, each one crammed full of gold, jewels, rare herbs, and treasures worth more than entire cities. And yet, in love and friendship, he was bankrupt. The climb to the top was
Chapter 550 Alex had no idea what was happening. People kept shouting a name at him-Bai Xiaochun. In the Xia language, he understood the words clearly. Bai meant white, pure, clean. Xiao meant small. Chun meant innocent, simple, genuine. Together, it meant “the small and innocently pure one.” Harmless. Gentle.
Chapter 549 Alex stood inside a wooden house, the air thick with the smell of timber and dust. He had seen this kind of place many times before. Xia architecture. Old, stubborn, rooted in tradition. They refused to trade wood for steel, refused to raise glass towers into the sky
Chapter 548 The front screen froze at 100 p> “Father,” Sofina said quietly. “Doesn’t that mean Alex is pure-blood from the Earth Empire p> Wilhelm leaned back in his chair, the weight of centuries settling into his posture. “I checked the records left by our ancestors. There are only a
Chapter 547 “So, Father-do you really plan to turn them into slaves?” Sofina asked. Her face made her opposition unmistakably clear. The king let out a slow sigh. “That was the original plan,” he said. “The one we agreed on last year-before everything changed p> “What changed?” Sofina pressed. The
Chapter 546 The palace hall fell silent as Duke Christoph played the live feed. On the massive screen, Alex’s aircraft was swallowed by blinding white light. The light bomb detonated. The image shook violently, then dissolved into static and fire. Nothing remained. No wreckage. No escape. The King stared at
Chapter 545 On the throne, King Wilhelm Augustus sat rigid, his gaze fixed on the man before him. “Christoph,” he said coldly, “is it truly necessary to hunt down the last heir of Saint- Claire p> Duke Christoph von Dornwald inclined his head, just enough to show respect. “Your Majesty,
Chapter 544 When Alex heard that his enemy might be the king himself, his heart went ice-cold. “Countess Marlene,” Alex asked suddenly. “How long have I been here p> “About twenty three hours since we found you,” Marlene replied. “Listen to me,” Alex said quickly. “I guess, the only reason
Chapter 543 Alex froze. His eyes widened. “Why… why is this because of me p> Countess Marlene folded her arms. “Because Sofina called Eve to save you,” she said. “When Eve found you, you were lying on the ground like crushed meat. Like you’d been hit by an aircraft. Bones
Chapter 542 “Princess Sofina… are you all right p> The voice cut through the fog in her head. Sofina blinked hard. Her vision swam, then snapped into focus. An elderly man stood over her, tall and broad, his presence heavy and imposing. “I’ve already administered the antidote,” he said calmly.
Chapter 541 Sofina’s skin burned as if fire ran beneath it. Heat pooled low in her body, fierce and humiliating, stealing her breath. What was happening to her? A terrifying thought slammed into her mind. Did Count Lorenz drug her? She looked at Count Lorenz, and without warning a violent
Chapter 540 In another place, Katarina sat with her father, Otto Rosenheim, inside a study. Otto leaned back in his chair, his fingers steepled. “Have you successfully taken Heinrich out of prison?” he asked calmly. “Yes,” Katarina replied without hesitation. “If nothing goes wrong, he’ll be released in a few
Chapter 539 The moment Renata vowed to destroy the Wolfsbane family, the room froze. Every member of the Wolfsbane household stood stunned, their minds blank. Baroness Wolfsbane felt the blood drain from her face. She had come here to force Gerhard into becoming Duke Winter’s son-in-law-not to invite Duke Winter’s
Chapter 538 Renata walked forward despite the pain burning through her body. Each step sent a sharp ache through her hips, but she didn’t slow down. She stared straight into the eyes of the young man who had tried to rape her. “Remember my face,” she said coldly. “Remember what
Chapter 537 There is a common saying that women’s preferences often change with age. In their late teens and early twenties, many women focus on attraction and excitement. Looks, confidence, and charm matter most. In their twenties to early thirties, attraction is still important, but money, stability, and future plans
Chapter 536 The young man staggered back, his vision spinning. The bottle smash had rattled his skull. Blood poured down his face, blurring his sight. He stumbled like a drunk, crashing into nearby tables. Wine glasses shattered. Bottles tipped and rolled. Plates clattered to the floor. Then his legs gave
