This is about the story of a woman, who is loving secretly. And how far she can go for her love and a man who fell for a woman the moment he laid eyes on her.
The Stark siblings are at their private cemetery inside the Stark mansion for their late father's burial. They didn't allow outsiders to join.
"Damn, funerals are boring," the second son, Boy said.
"Should we hold a party then?" the only daughter, CC asked sarcastically.
"I'm just saying. Look, there's no one here aside from us and the servants," Boy defended.
"Idiot," Jer, the youngest said.
"Hey!"
Sighing, "We wanted it like this, remember?" The third son, Zy said.
"Oh~ right. Hehehe, my bad. I forgot," Boy chuckled.
The eldest could only sigh. He's wondering if their father hates him so much to leave these kids for him to take care of.
*clap*
"Okay, since our father is safely resting now six feet under, can I go now? I have surgery in an hour," CC said.
"Me too, need to go. Will raid some scums later," Zy stated.
"Are you sure it's not girls you are going to raid?" Boy teased.
Zy grinned, "You know me so well. But what can I say? They can't resist me," he winked.
Jer just shook his head.
"Bro, we will go ahead too. My baby is waiting for me," Boy said wiggling his eyebrows.
"Go and make sure that everything is ready for tonight," Kith uttered.
"Sure, Hades. Come on, Jer," Boy drags his brother away.
Kith, with his hands inside his pockets, smirked.
"They will see hell tonight. I promise you, dad,"

Kali is on her way back to her penthouse. Her mind brought back her conversation with her father when she agreed to take over their business seven years ago. She graduated from her medical and business course when she was 15. And took her master's for a year. After that, she spent 4 years traveling with NGOs for medical missions while taking her doctorate. She finished all that at the age of 20.
Now, she's 27. One of the youngest doctors in the field.
/flashback/
"I have my conditions," she told her father.
"Okay, let's hear it," her father, Arthur said.
"You wanted me to work for the empire and I will," she said making her father smile but it faded soon.
"But I will not sit on a chair all day long signing papers. I will still practice my profession as a neurosurgeon in a hospital of my choice. But I will still be the president and all the decisions will come from me,"
She stated. Her father asked her how she will do that.
"I will appoint my acting CEOs," she said.
Arthur sighed and glanced at his wife who shrugged.
"Okay, let's say that'll be the case. But I still want you to take a business course even in units so they won't question your capabilities though I know you are more than capable not because you're my child but because you are with that brain of yours," Arthur said.
"That's not a problem, here," she handed her diplomas. Two diplomas.
Her father is gaping reading it.
"These are-
"Yes, dad. My diplomas. I took it while taking medicine," she said.
"You even finished your master's degree?" Her mom asked in disbelief.
"Mn. Also, my doctorate is just in the corner since I already submitted my research and defended it already. All I need to do is wait for the graduation day," she said.
"Wow, just wow," her father said and she just shrugged.
"Oh! Before I forgot, Elixir is included in the deal. So, what will it be, Mr. Nightwish?"
Arthur sighed in defeat and Kali jumps in glee like she got the best gift she could ask for.
She went to hug them before leaving. Her parents smiled at her retreating back.
"She will be fine, right hun?" Her mother Elli asked.
"She will. I will make sure of it," Arthur replied.
Kali was a sweet kid. But because she is a genius, her mind works faster than kids her age. And because of that, she got bullied. The bubbly kid disappeared. That's why whenever this playful side of her comes out, her parents saw their little princess.

Her thoughts were interrupted when her phone vibrates. He smiled seeing who it is.
"Hey, C. What's up?"
"K! I need a favor, pretty please?"
C or CC Stark is the sister of the owner of the hospital. They became friends when they met in one seminar. They have similarities that's why they clicked. She can be herself whenever she's with her.
"Sure, sis. What is it?"
"It's about my brother..."
At the mention of that and who among her brothers, her mind starts to drift off.
"Hey, K, are you there? I know it's your day off but you're the only one I could count on," CC said.
"No, it's okay. I'll be there soon," the call ended after CC thanked her.
"SMC, Max,"
"Right away, Lady A,"
She looks outside the window.
"Wait for me, my Kith,"
