{IN THE DEATH'S EMPIRE, XAVIER'S ROOM}
Lily Rose dragged him to his room after helping her with the wound, her voice barely above a whisper. "Hey, get dressed. We're going to a dinner party."

He raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "A dinner party? Just the two of us?"

Lily nodded, her eyes sparkling. "Yes, just us two. And, by the way, quickly get dressed."

" I did not planned to wear anything" Xavier spoke.

" So you are planning to be naked ?" Lily Rose teased with question.

"Do you want me to?,  I will not mind being your personal male slut right now" He spoke with a cocky smile.

" Just...get dressed" she yelled as he went to the dressing room laughing.

"What a pervert!" She whispered and shrugged uncomfortable.

As he got dressed, Lily couldn't help but admire the executive's handsome suit on him. "Oh my God, you look stunning," she exclaimed.

He chuckled, teasing her. "You're making me blush." As their banter was lighthearted, but beneath it, a deep connection hummed.

When Lily handed him the gift, she got from the jewelry shop, his expression softened. "Happy birthday, love" she whispered.

He paused, taken aback. Thirteen years had passed since he'd last been  given a gift to celebrated his birthday.

"Thank you," he said, his voice filled with emotion with a tear. "This means everything."

Lily's eyes shone. "There's more to come. Tonight's dinner party is just the beginning."

He chuckled. "You know I don't need gifts, but I appreciate the thought."

Lily smiled mischievously. "Trust me, you'll love this one."

She handed him a beautifully wrapped box. Inside, he found a stunning millions dollar diamond wristwatch, one that spoke to his soul.

"Wow, Mi Reina ( My Queen), this is incredible," he said, his eyes locked on the artwork.

Lily Rose beamed. "I'm glad you like it." As Xavier dotted  the expensive diamond watch, feeling like royalty.

" Let me go and change" Lily Rose spoke as she went to the dressing room for a while.

Lily Rose emerged in a breathtaking white off-shoulder gown with dragon tattoo designs gold accents, her beauty radiating.

Her stunning dress, its intricate dragon design shimmering in the light. Xavier's gaze was captivated by the majestic creature embroidered across the fabric.

"Xavier, what's wrong?" Lily Rose asked, noticing his intense stare.

Xavier's eyes met hers, his expression thoughtful. "This dragon design... it's the same as one of my tattoos."

Lily Rose's curiosity was piqued. She remembered seeing the tattoo during their first intimate moment but hadn't asked about its significance.

"Why do you have a dragon design?" she asked, her voice filled with intrigue.

Xavier's eyes sparkled. "The dragon represents strength, power, and leadership. It's a symbol of my unyielding passion and determination. Just like dragons, I'm fiercely protective and obsessive about what matters most."

Lily Rose's gaze locked onto his. "And what's that?"

A sly smile spread across Xavier's face. "You, Lily Rose. You're my treasure and My Queen."

She blushed, her heart racing. With happiness.

"You know, Godfather sometimes calls me 'Dragon,'" Xavier continued. "It's a sign of respect and appreciation. But no one else has ever called me that."

Lily Rose's eyes twinkled mischievously. "May I call you Dragon?"

Xavier's voice lowered, his tone playful. "Only if you give me a kiss each time."

Lily Rose's lips curled into a sly smile. "Deal."

She stood on her toes, her lips brushing against Xavier's own in a gentle peck.

"Are you ready to go to the party?" Xavier asked, his hand extending to hers.

"Yes, my dear Dragon," Lily Rose replied, her voice barely above a whisper.

With a smile, Xavier led her out, the dragon design on her dress shimmering like a secret shared only between them.

"Stunning," he whispered, offering his arm.

Together, they stepped into the night, the promise of secrets and surprises hanging in the air.

As they walked, Lily Rose leaned in. "Tonight's going to be unforgettable."

He smiled, knowing that with Lily Rose, every moment was a gift.

Their evening was a tapestry of laughter, whispers, and stolen glances, each moment weaving their hearts closer.

In this night of enchantment, time stood still, leaving only the promise of forever.

{ OUTSIDE THE ROOM}
Vienna pressed her ear against the door, listening intently to the conversation inside. Her eyes narrowed, jealousy simmering in her veins and now she could not bear it anymore.

{FLASHBACKS - MERMORIES}
Their history dated back to school days. Vena, once a bully just like Sue Ellen, had tormented Lily Rose for being smart and award winning student.

Not only did she bullied her because of that, but also because of she wanted Lily Rose to feel the pains when she was maltreated by the Sean's family as well.

But now, the tables had turned. Lily Rose's stunning transformation had stolen the spotlight, and Raymond's affections.

Vienna's possessiveness knew no bounds. She had always craved Raymond's attention, but he barely noticed her. His focus was on Lily Rose, and Vena seethed with resentment.

Until the end of their school years, when she was found by her brother, Brian, she decided to help him as an uncover spy as a maid.

Vienna's eyes locked onto xavier, her heart racing. As a maid in the Xavier Empire, she had fallen deeply in love with him at first sight, despite wearing a mask and hoodie. His mysterious handsomeness drew her in.

But no matter how hard she tried, xavier remained aloof. Her revealing dresses, flirtatious smiles, and subtle advances were met with indifference or punishment.

Vienna's frustration grew. Why couldn't she capture his attention?

Then, Lily Rose arrived at the empire. Vienna's resentment simmered, recognizing the girl she had bullied and envied in school.

"Lily Rose, the beauty goddess," Vienna always sneered. "She thinks she's so perfect."

Vienna's anger intensified, realizing Xavier's affection for Lily Rose. The same man she had tried to seduce for months.

"That's why he's been distant," Vienna thought, her mind racing when she found the truth. "He was smitten with her."

Determined to destroy Lily Rose, Vienna concocted plans to eliminate her. But with Xavier constantly by Lily Rose's side, Vienna waited.

{ FLASHBACKS ENDS }

"The birthday party is the perfect opportunity," Vienna schemed. "I'll ensure Xavier hates Lily Rose forever or... worse."

Vienna's eyes gleamed with malice, her heart consumed by jealousy.

As the party preparations unfolded, Vienna subtly manipulated events, fueling xavier doubts about Lily Rose.

"Tonight, I'll make sure Lily Rose pays for stealing his heart," Vienna vowed, her resolve deadly.

The night of the party, Vena's sinister plans would unfold, threatening to destroy Lily Rose's happiness and claim Xavier's affections once and for all.
