The Siren's Vengeance

"None of my pawns signified love but then he came along, disintegrating the whole chessboard to dust." ... Einstein said, 'The weak revenge. The strong forgive. The intelligent ignore.' To hell with that. I believe in 'Revenge is a dish best served cold.' For all that pain, the gore, and those blood-curdling screams that haunted me for the past 16 years, I am here. Right inside the den of those wolves who ripped my happy world to shreds. Inch by inch, drop by drop, they will pay their sins. But my vengeance did not include him. Archer Cardale. An enigma. There is something about him that can catch my attention in a room full of people, that made me choose him as my husband, as a pawn in my revenge. And there has to be something about him that makes me fall for him...hopelessly. I had nothing to lose... until him. He has no idea about what I am, about what I went through but he holds me close when I have nightmares. He kisses the coldness in my heart. But once he discovers that the girl in his bed and in his heart is the very same monster who is responsible for the brutal, cold-blooded murders happening around him, will he still hold me close? Or will he save those monsters who turned me into one? In the end, will he choose them? Or will we watch their downfall together? ... After their first time— She whispered, ''That was...'' ''Hmm?'' he played with her hair. "...something,'' she finished. ''Your vocabulary sucks,'' Archer chuckled. "You have something better to describe what happened between us?" "C'était un rêve devenu réalité pour moi,'' he smiled, looking at her stunned face. (Translation: It was a dream come true for me) ... [No rape or major misunderstandings. There will be explicit steamy scenes, a bit of angst, and it's a slow-burn romance. No direct jumping and doing stuff ahem!] ~ [Follow me on Instagram: @auroraboooks for all exclusive content, spoilers, and other fun stuff that I can't post here on WN]

Can't decide

Elvina tucked the loose strands of her hair behind her ear as she smiled at him awkwardly, ''Hi.'' 

''We just say 'Good Night' to each other,'' Archer teased. 

''I...'' Elvina closed her eyes. She never really walked inside her room after that. She stood in front of his room for a long time and she could not decide whether to knock on the door or not. 

But, she did not have a reason for knocking on his door. 

So, no matter how much she wanted to, she decided against it in the end and turned around to leave. 

But much to her shock, he opened the door before she could leave. 

And just like that, she was caught red-handed. 

''Hmm?" He glanced at her questioningly as if he was waiting for her reason for standing in front of his room.

Elvina bit her bottom lips and glanced at the floor, then at the ceiling, anywhere but him. 

''So, you just wanted to see me—''
