70 Chapter 70

Seraphina’s POV 1

I was barely through the glass doors of Nightshadow Industries when the chaos hit me like a physical wall. Raised voices echoed through the normally pristine lobby, and I could see a crowd of employees gathered near the elevators, their heads craned toward the executive

floor.

“What’s going on?” I asked the receptionist, who looked like she’d rather be anywhere else in the world.

And then I heard the screaming.

“You can’t do this to me! I’m his first lover! His future Luna! This is all a mistake!”

Anna’s voice, shrill and desperate, cut through the air like broken glass. I hurried toward the sound, my heart pounding with a mixture of

confusion and dread.

The scene that greeted me outside Damien’s office was something out of a nightmare. Anna stood in the middle of the hallway, her

perfectly styled hair disheveled, mascara streaming down her cheeks in black rivulets. Her pink dress-the one that had always been too

tight-was now wrinkled and stained with what looked like coffee.

“Please, Damien!” she sobbed, reaching toward his office door like a drowning woman grasping for a life preserver. “I love you! We’re

meant to be together! That pendant proves it!”
