"I would like you to meet Ms. Kierra Smith, she will be your gown designer from now on," He said as he looks at me and then at Ms. Kierra who is now smiling at us."Nice to meet you, Ms. Kierra," I politely said, she then slightly bowed her head and greeted me back. "It was indeed a pleasure meeting you, Lady Roana," she said and look at me, still smiling.

I look at my gown, it was a bloody red dress, an elegant cut that shows my cleavage daring yet gorgeous it was embroidered with rose petals and an off-shoulder type, ruffled skirt ball gown.Mrs. Leigh didn't disappoint.

I glance at the red mascara placed on the table along with the heels I will wear later."Ms. Roana, we have to get ready" Said Caroline, I nodded, then she walks to the bathtub, it was full of roses petals and it smells amazing.

Everything was chaos. I can smell the blood from everywhere, I look around and saw that bodies were lying on the floor, cold and dead. I gasp for air trying to process everything. I followed Corro's butler while carrying the shirt and pants in my hands.We reach the master's room and he motioned the opened door after he opened it and handed me the card. It was Corro's key card.

I walk to the bathroom and remove my gown then I turned on the

Corro ask. I just nodded and hug myself as I can feel the cold wind envelope my body. "How was the investigation?" I ask him, I turn my head to him and stare at him. He then walks near me and hugs me from behind. "We already bring them to the quarter and making them spill the information but it seems like they are trained to die than to tell," I can sense the frustration in his voice, my brows furrowed as I look at the sea again in front of his mansion. The guards are surrounding the area, and it was tripled since it's too dangerous to let our guards down. I blink twice, thinking of what he said. People from their circle think that loyalty is greater than life. Why do people value loyalty but never

"The tattooed man, my dreams that was bothering me," I said, honestly."Let me take care of that for you, stress is bad for you and our baby," He said, sounded concerned.
