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.

“Security is… handling a situation upstairs,” she said diplomatically, though her wide eyes told a different story.

The elevator ride to the top floor felt endless. When the doors finally opened, I stepped into what could only be described as a war zone.

Two security guards flanked the hallway leading to Damien’s office, their expressions grim and professional. Claire stood near her desk,

her usually composed demeanor cracked around the edges.

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
