His Devious Rule

Linus was jogging on the lawn when he heard a loud noise. He couldn\'t understand how such a loud noise came from their place. While thinking he saw a massive truck entering the mansion.

"What the f***!" He cussed, unwilling to believe somebody actually broke into his brother\'s estate.

He ran inside to alert his brother. His brother lazily descended the stairs with a hand in his pocket. "Bro, a truck broke inside." He was bewildered, disbelief written all over his face.

Alvin glanced at his brother. He was proud Linus wasn\'t frightened. "I know." He responded as he went to the drawing-room so that the uninvited guest wouldn\'t destroy his mansion and see him right there.

Linus was perplexed. What was that reaction? Shouldn\'t Alvin be seething? He thought to wait and see who dared to break inside. He put on an angry face, clenched his teeth, and glared outside.

The truck stopped away and the sports car halted in front of the door. The car door opened vertically and black high heel thigh-high boots stepped out. \'A girl!?\' The expression on Linus\' face wavered.

The slender legs were donning black tights. A black knitted top was layered with a leather jacket. She had a perfect tough and chic look. Her honey-blonde hair was fluttered back at the brush of the wind and her alluring face dropped Linus\'s jaw.

She was the same lady he met at the reception of the hotel. He didn\'t have the time to check her out that day, today she appeared like a sexy devil at his doorstep.

On second thought, he ran towards the drawing-room and reached his brother. He hurriedly asked before the lady could reach them, "Bro, is she your girl?" It would be a waste to try his chance if she likes Alvin.

Alvin shifted his gaze from his tablet to Linus. The meaningless look was enough to tell Linus that Alvin had nothing to do with the lady. He jumped to the different armchair and sat like the owner of the mansion, crossing his legs and putting on a serious expression.

When his eyes fell on Alvin, he felt like a kid imitating his brother. \'Woah, bro is naturally bossy.\' He admired his brother for a second before changing his plan.

Playful and easygoing suited him the best. He rose and quickly went to the entrance of the drawing-room and stood next to the couch. As soon as he heard the lady roar, he lifted his protein shake bottle and sipped, tilting his head in an angle that he assumes is the best angle.

Alvin: "..."

He itched to smack Linus and ask about his weird acts but his attention shifted to the lady roaring his name a second time with threat spilling out of her lips.

"Alvin Matthews… Get f**k out… Alvin Matthews… If you don\'t come, I will burn…" Her voice halted when her blazing reddish-brown eyes fell on the man she was looking for.

She ignored the man at the entrance of the drawing-room and halted in front of Alvin. As she got near, she felt her heart shudder by looking at his cold gaze, anyway, she clenched her fist and glared into his eyes, "Do you think there is nobody to stop you? Alvin Matthews, how dare you lay a finger on my girl? Just because you have a name and power, do you think you can do anything as you want?.."

Linus: "..."

\'My girl!? Is she also a Young Mommy like Young Mommy Anya Owen? Young Mommies are indeed sexy and hot.\' He thought. He wanted to interject but sensed Alvin wasn\'t angry. He was sitting like he was watching a show he predicted.

However, to know the lady\'s identity, Linus cut in, "Who are you? Don\'t you know you shouldn\'t break into other people\'s place?"

The lady turned behind and narrowed her eyes at the man. She identified him and laughed scornfully. "A jerk and a casanova, what a combination!"

Casanova!?

Linus wanted to get happy for being recognized but she taunted him.

"Breaking into the house? Didn\'t this jerk break into a house and lay naked in somebody\'s bathtub? Where were your manners then?"

Alvin gritted his teeth. He couldn\'t believe Anya sold him out to her best friend without giving him a face.

"Huh?" Linus took a second to recall Alvin was drugged. \'Wait, does that mean Young Mommy helped him in the night? Aren\'t they friends anymore?\' He was shocked at the revelation.

The lady warned Linus, "If you dare seduce my girl, forget your precious jewelry. I will crush and feed it to the street dogs." She hissed in annoyance.

Linus almost choked on his spit hearing her. Seducing Anya Owen? His brother will bury him in the ground. He wanted to seduce this hothead.  \'This arrogant woman doesn\'t have fear.\' He swallowed hard, controlling his hands from covering his precious jewelry.

Turning back to Alvin, the lady continued in high pitch, "Alvin Matthews, if you are thinking you could do as you please, don\'t even dream. I will protect my girl from you at any cost. If anything happens to her, I will not think twice before slaughtering you into pieces. You..."

"Krystie…" A melodious voice floated in the air.

After a run, Anya got fresh, wore a comfortable dress, and left the room for breakfast. Her ears perked up hearing Krystle\'s voice. She went downstairs as a smile slowly bloomed on her face.

The roaring lioness turned towards the sweet voice and became a little fawn at the sight of Anya. "Annie…" She sounded like a little pitiful child who got her mother back after a long time. She leaped towards Anya and embraced her.

Linus: "..."

Krystle broke their hug and held her shoulder. She saw Anya\'s eyes carefully, those weren\'t puffy so Anya hadn\'t cried. She went around Anya, she didn\'t seem to be hurt or in pain.

Anya chuckled at the protective friend, "I am alright, Krystie."

Krystle stood in front of Anya and pulled her cheeks, "You scared me, you little brat. Can\'t you be as obedient as my godson? Now, I love him more than you." She left Anya\'s cheeks, crossed her arms snorting a \'hmph\', and looked away.

Anya knew Krystle would be worried but going to her place would have put her whole family in danger. Since Krystle was angry, she sulked, "I was sad, you are making me sadder."

"I am not falling for it," Krystle growled.

Anya sighed. Krystle didn\'t know the entire situation other than knowing her life was in danger. "Krystie, this is a huge mess. You, your family, everyone would have been in trouble. Who will look after my little son if something happens to me?"

Though Anya said in an instance, Krystle could sense she was masking her worries and pretending like all was fine. She hugged Anya without being angry anymore, "Nothing will happen to you. We will be best mothers to my godson."

Anya smiled, hugging back her friend.

Alvin multiple times caught the dimples peeking on Anya\'s cheeks just by seeing and hugging her friend. He disliked she didn\'t react the same to him and glared at the two ladies.

He suddenly realized he was jealous of the annoying puppy for making his little kitten happy so easily.

Before he could digest what he found out, he heard Krystle saying, "Let\'s go, you are staying with me." His mood soured in an instant.

Anya honestly wanted to leave the Oasis and stay away from Alvin. However, solving the case was also important. She was thinking if she could handle the situation alone when Alvin\'s cold voice rang.

"She will stay here."

Krystle\'s mood worsened hearing Alvin\'s words. She didn\'t want to leave Anya around Alvin at any cost. She was afraid his messed-up family would drag Anya into their mess and she hated Alvin to the bones.

"I will keep her safe and you have no f**king right to stop us." Her hateful tone pierced in the air.

Linus who was silently observing couldn\'t understand why \'Krystie\' named beauty, hates Alvin so much. He glanced at Alvin, the latter seemed to sense it too when his eyes shifted briefly.

Though Krystle was never easy on him, Alvin couldn\'t understand why she was despising him so much. It couldn\'t be just because of the previous day, does it?

Even the way Krystle was standing, she was blocking his gaze from falling on Anya. Alvin couldn\'t understand what he was missing out on.

\'Did I hurt Little Donut?\'

\'Did my father do something to Little Donut?\'

Alvin suddenly rose from the couch and questioned, "Little Donut, who is the father of your son?"
