• • • •

Lyricie checked her phone for a new message. Seeing that there is none, she opened the secret app. Underworld App.

She scrolls down to see the heir active. She knit her brows. Did he go there? She asked herself. Is that's why he's been out lately?

She then stopped at the new name and in the same time, familiar.

"This." She exits the app and searched her step-big brother's name. Harry B. Gill.

"What?!" He is really a successful business man?!

She remembers that his last words she heard that he will find revenge. She sighs. She did not know if she is happy or what.

"It is better if he will forget what he had done and will not going to do it." She dresses herself up and went outside.

"Mommy!" Lyrzie called her mother and hugs her mother's legs.

"You startled me." She was surprised on his sudden cuteness attacked. She carries him and kisses his cheeks and nose. "I have a very cute little pie~" Lyrcie sings with cuteness overload.

"Good morning Mrs. Mo, his things are ready." The maid showed up and gives his bag to her. Lyricie nodded. "Is his pancake in here?"

"Mommy, I don't want pancake." Lyrzie suddenly said. The maid sighs. She bows to leave when Lyricie signal her to leave them alone. "Let's go and buy something you like."

Lyrzie nodded and kissed his mother's cheeks. Lyricie blushes because her son is so adorable! "Why are you so adorable?!" She thought to herself.

They went to the mall to buy what he likes. He bought cookies, and fruits like strawberries. "Since, we are here and you are finish buying what you likes, let's go to my favorite store." Lyrzie nodded and followed her. They went inside the bookstore and Lyricie started to find a book to buy.

"Unnie! Lyricie- unnie!" A sweet woman's voice belongs to the girl who wears mini skirt with fitted blouse. Lyricie and Lyrzie looks at her direction.

"Katrina!" Lyricie called her. Katrina holds her basket and put it besides Lyrzie. Katrina instantly pinches his chubby cheeks. "Why are you so cute!?" Lyrzie wanted to cry but he hates crying so he looks at his mother and pouted. His eyes telling her that keep this woman in front of him leave.

Lyricie chuckled. "Stop pinching my son's cheeks. He hates it." She seriously said but deep inside she wanted to laugh out loud because of her son's cute expression.

Katrina removed her hands and stands up properly. "What kind of books are you looking?" She asked her.

"Novels." She shortly replied.

"Ahh!! There is a new upcoming novel this year and it has been recently released. That what I came here for!" Katrina excitedly said.

Lyricie eyes suddenly sparkled when she saw the book Katrina's holding.

"I-is that 30 days challenge to love you?" She asked.

"You knew?!" Katrina said. "But, I already bought this last week so the new book. I am here for is the book two, 30 days challenge until you miss me." She added.

Lyrzie listen to them but his eyes catches his attention. He tugs her mother's dress. Lyricie stopped talking and looks at her son. "What is it?" She asked. Lyrzie pointed the book. "You can pick whatever you like but you should not go too far from me. This bookstore is huge and it is hard to find you. You also might get lost. Understand?" She said to him while warning him.

"Yes, mommy." He starts to roam and get the book he is interested with. "How do you protect yourself from dangers? You have strong interests my cutie pie." Lyricie said while staring at him. She is already finish talking with Katrina because she needs to go to the counter to buy the books she's holding and go back to her friends. While Lyricie, she only stared at her child who is now looking busy.

"Mommy." He was startled. He didn't see his mother coming. Lyrcie giggles. "Here." She put their basket in the ground where he can reach completely.

After they bought the books they immediately go back to their home.

Zier is on his office and he will be late because of their new projects. Since, Lyricie woke ups, he started to have energy to work with happiness. He always thinks of his wife and son. But lately, Grey is acting weird. There are times when Grey wanted to say but he can't. Zier wanted to know the truth so he asked Jiaxyn but she also shut her mouth.

He did not mind that but until now, his curiosity wins. "Grey, why are you weird lately?" He asked. "Is it because you lost?" He added. Grey stopped his works and he begins to sweats. Such a small details, he can actually know that there is something wrong? He thought.

"No, it's not because I lost. It's because I discover something shocking." He simply used some words to remove the word battle.

"Where?"

"I do not know. She only showed the directions but didn't tell what is it called." He answered. He really do not know because Jiaxyn is the one who shows the way to the so-called-clubhouse, and Lyricie shows the way to that secret place.

"Take pictures?"

Grey shook his head. "Pictures is not allowed, you're wife said."

"Did you play games?"

"Hell! Ask your wife! I am going back to work. You are making me distracted, BOSS." He said and went back to work.

Zier kit his brows and sighs.

There's a knock on the door and someone opened the door without waiting for someone to answer. "Good grief. Your workers are so energetic. They are always calling me 'lady boss' here and there!" Lyricie sighs and sits in the couch.

Zier smiled. "Tired?" Lyricie stands up and went to him. She kissed his lips and hugs him tightly. "Nope. I am still not used to it. They're calling me lady boss or what. It is much better if they do not recognize me and just do their own work."

"You will used to it."

"Did you order it to them?"

Zier smirked. "What do you think?" Lyricie pouted. "Well, never mind. I will get used to it someday." She sweetly said. "Now, go back to work." She stands up but he still didn't let go of her that results her to sit in his lap. "You!" Zier laughs. "What me?"

Lyricie blushes. "Fine." She hugs and kisses him again.

"Now that's enough." Zier let her go. Lyricie stands up and stretch her body. She went back to her sit and opens her phone. While, he go back to his work but time to time he peeks on her.

Lyricie saw the news that her clan is having new enemy. Who is it? Trying to kill them?

It's already midnight when Zier finished his work, so do Lyricie when she received a message on his son's personal maid.

She abruptly stands up and drops her phone. She clenched her fists and looks at her husband.

"What is it?" Zier suddenly go to her and picks the phone when he reads the message. He suddenly hugs her tight.

"Don't worry. We will find him. Let's go home and check it out."

"But... But..." Lyriciestarted to lose her soul. Her precious son had been kidnapped. She should havenot left him behind. She should have not.
