"Who is she? She is not the one I was supposed to marry."

"Master, She is the other woman's sister. She came here to represent her." His butler responds.

Eric smirks. "That cheeky woman thinks she can get a taste of me and run. Find her, and bring her here."

"Yes, Master Eric."

When Mina Campbell is cast out of her adoptive parent's home to represent her step sister at a 'checking' ritual, everything becomes blurry and faded, even worse when they turn their backs on her, calling her a whore who's out to ruin their lives. 

She's sad, angry and despaired.

Until Eric Walters decides to claim the young, cute and petite woman for himself, and slowly, she ends up being the Wealthy Man's weakness, oh, and his strength.

The Wealthy Man's Wife is His Weakness!

Alan stands frozen in front of the glass doors, his tall and subtly menacing figure casting a shadow as he holds his gun loosely at his side, staring softly into the mirror.

For a moment, the tension is unbearable.

Mina, hiding behind the glass, is holding her breath, her entire body stiff and cold as her hands are clasped tightly in Queen's. She watches as Alan lifts the gun slowly, her heart pounding in her chest, thinking this is it…He's seen her, and there's no escape, especially since he has a gun to cajole her unwillingly.

But instead of aiming it at the door or firing, Alan does something completely unexpected.

He brings the gun up to his head, specifically to his hairline and uses it to push his stray strands of hair back into place, casually rearranging the strands as though the chaos around him, one that he is the reason behind, is nothing more than a minor inconvenience in a public place.

Trapped in front of the Devil, but there is no Sea to hide in.
