Enchanted Nightfall: Falling for Destiny

When the cops knocked on the door, Quintessa had just rolled out of bed where Tyrone lay.The air was still thick with the scent of last night’s steamy escapades, clothes strewn haphazardly on the floor – a testament to the passion that had unfolded last night.The persistent fierce knock at the hotel room door didn’t faze her as she leisurely showered, slipped into her clothes, and applied her makeup with the meticulousness of someone in her own apartment.Who was she? Quintessa the notorious, the ultimate femme fatale, always had to look dazzling, outshining everyone with her radiance.

Tyrone, bare-chested, still bore the tell-tale crimson marks of Quintessa’s nails on his skin, a mottled pattern of desire. He lit a cigarette, “You know, if you ask nicely, I might just be able to shave a couple years off your sentence.”Quintessa sauntered over, plucked the cigarette from his lips, took a drag, and then placed it back between his lips.Her slender hand playfully slapped his cheek, taunting him in a manner reminiscent of a flirtatious tease, “Mr. York, next time you go hunting for a lady, keep your eyes open. Don’t think just because you’re loaded, I can’t outsmart you.”Indeed, the man she had bedded was her aunt’s man, the dream of every woman in Emberbrook, the sole heir to York Financial Group – Tyrone York.His looks? Only those who’d seen him knew. His wealth? Perhaps even he couldn’t fathom.Otherwise, Quintessa wouldn’t have been able to resist bonking him.Ranked as the city’s most coveted one-night stand, Tyrone had spent the previous night tangled in the sheets with her.

In every aspect, Tyrone had his pride.The police snarled outside, ”

by me, aren’t you?”With a thunderous crash, the door burst open and a motley crowd surged in – cops, reporters, and the Young family members from the oldest to the youngest.Quintessa’s aunt Rachel stormed at her, hand raised, and delivered a stinging slap across her face, “Quintessa, you tramp! Do you realize

Please, come with us.”Quintessa cooperated, extending her hands for the cold handcuffs that strangely complemented her wrists with a twisted beauty.As the police escorted Quintessa out, she paused by Rachel, whispering in her ear, “You had the gall to play me, so I slept with your man. Let’s see who gets the last laugh.”Rachel’s face instantly went pale.The night before, she had plotted against Quintessa, drugged her, hoping she’d get addicted to drugs and then be defiled by some street thugs, all to be exposed by the media. Her whole life would be ruined totally.But somehow, Quintessa had turned the tables and ended up bonking Rachel’s own fiancé. Rachel gritted her teeth with utter venom.At the guest room door, Quintessa saw her father Sean, her stepmother, and her half-brother. They watched silently as she was taken away, their faces barely concealing their schadenfreude. Within the same family, Quintessa was the thorn they all wished to pluck.Embezzlement, assault – these accusations were the filth her family had splashed upon her.A malicious glint flashing in her eye, Quintessa addressed her father, “Dad, don’t forget to visit.

wild recklessness that cared for nothing. A monster must dwell in that woman’s heart.“Quintessa’s been caught! She’s been caught in an affair! She’s headed to jail!”“Quintessa of Emberbrook, the notorious
