Kairie

Born into the Thornhill family, Eliana should have been dealing with succession planning and heiress training. But instead, she’s dealing with the crocodile tears of her cousin Alexa.

As if stealing her Fiancé wasn’t enough, she’s out to pin everything onto Eliana.

Trust issues - Eliana.

Popularity issues - Eliana.

Landslide - Must be Eliana.

In an attempt to end her cousin’s jealousy-ridden machinations, Eliana is forced into a relationship with a childhood disaster, Lucian Alder Sinclair, her most tempting nightmare.

Lucian Sinclair has always been synonymous with perfection, at least to most people. But to his family, finding someone who could handle his aloofness has been the top priority.

Forced to return to his home country at the behest of his grandfather, Lucian fortunately encounters Eliana who’s in need of a ready-made partner. 

Constantly up at each other's throats, then into each other’s arms, may the lies they’ve told hold up against discerning family members and unrelenting pursuers.

Yours, Until Needed

"Are you planning to sit in on the Trial?" Mom asked while brushing my hair.

It's been a month since the confrontation with Alexa and Ingrid, and I haven't had any close contact with them since then.

I really wanted to, though, but every time I saw them, my body would tense up in anger, frustration, or anticipation of revenge.

None of those were good for me and my baby.

"I don't think so, Mom. But if possible, maybe it could be recorded for future use when I need some catharsis. I just don't want them to leave a lasting effect on the baby."

It was okay for me to be angry, but why does my baby have to feel such awful feelings when he/she doesn't even have anything to do with those jackals?

"That's very wise of you, honey." She smiled and continued to comb through my hair as if she hadn't been doing the same thing for a while now.

This started about three weeks ago.
