Cupid

The Godlike Legal Empire.

Finished

As a company, it stands as (a towering legacy, impeccable on the surface, radiant with prestige and wealth, yet built on countless things forged in the darkest, bloodiest circumstances imaginable.

When my car eased into the jaw–dropping forecourt of the company, goosebumps settled across my skin from the sheer aura of the place.

I double–parked deliberately and took my time to tilt my head back, gazing up at the towering building that dominated the skyline.

Eighteen years ago, when I first came here, it was nothing more than a modest company focused on estate

management.

But once the illegal money began pouring in, rivers of it, we had to shift focus. Estate management alone could no longer plausibly hide the truth that the net worth far exceeded what legitimate work in that field could ever justify.

Ten years ago, my father proposed the brilliant pivot to beauty and fashion for men’s and women’s wear, cosmetics, luxury accessories.

When the world speaks of anything that makes beauty truly radiant, they speak of Godlike Legal Empire. And for the men’s division, I am the public face, the enigmatic model who embodies the brand.

“It’s been months since we last came here, Desmond’s voice came softly from beside me. In response to that truth, I lowered the cigarette from my lips and/exhaled a slow plume of smoke.

“The location?” I asked quietly, and he glanced at the screen of his cellphone.

“Inside. The lobby. It’s on the move right now.”

Hearing this, I set my jaw firmly and alighted from the car. He followed immediately.

At once, a valet rushed over to take my keys and park properly, but I ignored him, shifting my gaze instead to one of the mafia men standing guard nearby.

The mafia men were numerous, stationed discreetly yet unmistakably throughout the human region and werewolf territory, but I recognized every last one of them.

They deserved that recognition. They worked hard, they bled for the family, and their loyalty was absolute.

I handed my car keys to the trusted guard instead, and he accepted them with a deep, respectful bow.

I strode forward, stepping into the sprawling lobby, then slowed my pace.

Yes, this was it. An empire. Everything here belonged ultimately to Ruis Godlike, though shares had been carefully carved into chunks, and every worthy individual held their rightful portion.

Finished

“Find the watch, Desmond,” I murmured to him under my breath before taking a few more steps into the lobby and leaning casually against the polished rail of the upper corridor overlook.

From where I stood, I could feel the stares, the murmurs, the whispers, the weight of attention settling on me from all directions.

In the legal world, where no one knows me as the cold–blooded criminal I truly am, I am simply the adoptive son of Alpha Ruis.

The face of the men’s products, a celebrated model, mysterious, dangerously handsome, and notoriously a heavy womanizer.

Before I met Snowflakes, I never bothered to hide the fact that I was a crazy sex addict. Nor did I conceal that commitment was the last thing I wanted.

One night was more than enough to bore me. Who would ever have believed that a woman like Snow could shatter that cycle entirely?

I was lost in those thoughts, completely ignoring the onlookers, keeping my stare fixed on the massive banner of my own face hanging larger than life ahead. It advertised a premium leather jacket priced at a jaw–dropping, exorbitant amount.

The photograph had been taken about a year ago, and I wondered idly how life would shift once I was called in again for another campaign.

As much as I enjoyed modeling for my father and representing the brand, I far preferred the solitude of my loft and the raw power of ruling over the illegal side of the mafia empire.

“So it’s yours?” A feminine voice came from directly behind me, pulling me sharply Slowly, I turned to find myself staring at an undeniable beauty.

w thoughts.

Her long, flowing hair caught my eyes first, then her striking features and subtle scent. She was human. yey there was something about her presence that made my wolf stir restlessly within me, something that wasn’t supposed to happen.

Who was she?

“That means you’re the man I bumped into at the airport last night. You own this watch?”

My gaze dropped to the familiar wristwatch she held out, and I took it from her without a word.

She was right, of course. I must have lost it at the airport while hurrying, my mind consumed with everything else.

“Thanks,” I murmured curtly and turned to walk away, but her voice stopped me abruptly.

“You are Cupid Godlike, are you not?”

To that, I turned back and settled my gaze on her once more. Desmond stood a few steps away, watching carefully. My silence confirmed it for her, and she smiled brightly before extending her palm for a handshake.

“Lam Viviana Mooncrest. I have wanted to meet you for a very long time.”

Finished

Hearing the name Mooncrest, my breath slowed involuntarily, and my werewolf stirred again, more insistently.

Mooncrest? As in… the name Moonerest? Does that mean she is Viviana, the one Snow called her sister? The true blooded Frost daughter?

I searched her eyes intently, and the truth stared right back at me. I was correct. She was Snow’s sister. My gaze dropped briefly to her still–extended hand.

In the past, I wouldn’t even have taken it and shaken it firmly, and somehow my wolf didn’t sit well with her at all, even though her smile appeared almost perfectly believable.
