Love, betrayal, and redemption collide in a gripping journey where the line between right and wrong blurs, and hearts are tested beyond limits.

Godfather's Ward Chapter 1 One

"Stars. Look, there are many stars tonight."

"I still don't understand why we have to sneak in." Sage muttered, ignoring Lillian's statement.

"Lower your voice. We have to, I can't let dad find out about this. You will be in trouble." Lillian panicked.

The backdoor leads to the kitchen, and going through the kitchen, Lillian could easily sneak into Sage's room, as opposed to her room which was upstairs.

"He probably already know, Lillian. Let's get this over with, I need to go back to Pete's after making sure you get to your room." Sage told her, as they tread silently towards the back door of the house.

"Why can't you just stay? It's past midnight already. It's not safe driving back by this time." She said worriedly.

"Nope. I have to help the guys clean up. The party was for me after all, abandoning them would be rude."

"But you could go back tomorrow and clean up with them." Lillian suggested.

"I'm not staying, Lillian. Walk faster." He urged and Lillian's shoulder drooped at her failed attempt as she walked faster.

They got to the backdoor and the guard there stepped aside. He didn't bow like the guards usually do and his face wasn't familiar at all to Sage. Not that he knew all the guards but he's familiar with their faces at least and his father doesn't change guards that often.

"Lillian wait." He said as she placed her hand on the door handle.

"There's no time to waste, Sage." Lillian said, wasting no time in yanking the door open and dragging Sage in by his arm.

"Lillian-"

"You really like getting into trouble, don't you?" Lillian whispered still dragging Sage along as she tiptoed out of the kitchen.

The scene in front of them however made Sage immediately get in front of her, protecting her from view as he held her hand behind his back.

"Would you look at that? This gets even better." An unknown voice came from an unfamiliar man.

Lillian was already shaking as she peeped behind Sage's back to see multiple armed men surrounding their parents, who were kneeling on the floor, with guns to their heads.

Her mom let out a sob as she saw her children arrive in the right place, but definitely at the wrong time. Her dad's stern face also turned into a panicked one as he stares back at her.

Sage turned in a flash, dragging Lillian along in an attempt to make it out the same way they came but he came to an abrupt stop when he saw that the guard that was by the back door earlier was now blocking their way, with a dangerous smirk on his face.

There was no time to think, he tackled the man down within seconds and pushed Lillian towards the kitchen urging her to escape. Lillian was shocked.

"Go Lillian!!" He shouted with his back to her, waiting to tackle down anyone trying to go after her.

Very hesitantly, Lillian obeyed running out through the back door with the little strength she had left in her. She became mentally weak and her whole body was shutting down.

When she was a few meters away from the house, she halted, looking back.

Where would she even go? What was she doing leaving all of them in there and running away by herself? What if that was the last she ever saw of them?

A life without her parents would be gloom. A life without Sage wouldn't be life at all.

Lillian was confused so she starts going towards the house. A few steps forward, a few steps backwards, while Sage was busy fighting off the men and effectively blocking the entrance just to make sure his sister has enough time to escape.

Lillian was still pacing.

But wouldn't her parents want her to escape no matter what even if they end up dying this night? Wouldn't Sage be disappointed if she got caught after all the efforts he just made to make sure she escaped?

Lillian halted, she was paralyzed on the spot not knowing what to do.

"Let me make a choice for you."

Lillian gasped at the voice and turned around, almost falling. She sighed when she saw that it was their head bodyguard, Oliver. But was she really safe?

I woke up in a blindingly white hotel penthouse with a throbbing headache and the taste of betrayal in my mouth. The last thing I remembered was my stepsister, Cathie, handing me a flute of champagne at the charity gala with a smile that didn't reach her eyes. Now, a tall, dangerously handsome man walked out of the bathroom with a towel around his hips. On the nightstand sat a stack of hundred-dollar bills. My stepmother had finally done it—she drugged me and staged a scandal with a hired escort to destroy my reputation and my future. "Aisha! Is it true you spent the night with a gigolo?" The shouts of a dozen reporters echoed through the heavy oak door as camera flashes exploded through the peephole. My phone lit up with messages showing my bank accounts were already frozen. My father was invoking the 'morality clause' in my mother’s trust fund, and my fiancé had already released a statement dumping me to marry my stepsister instead. I was trapped, penniless, and being hunted by the press for a scandal I hadn't even participated in. My own family had sold me out for a payday, and the man standing in front of me was the only witness who could prove I was innocent—or finish me off for good. I didn't have time to cry. According to the fine print of the trust, I had thirty days to prove my "rehabilitation" through a legal marriage or I would lose everything. I tracked the man down to a coffee shop the next morning, watching him take a thick envelope of cash from a wealthy older woman. I sat across from him and slid a napkin with a $50,000 figure written on it. "I need a husband. Legal, paper-signed, and convincing." He looked at the number, then at me, a slow, crooked smile spreading across his face. I thought I was hiring a desperate gigolo to save my inheritance. I had no idea I was actually proposing to Dominic Fields, the reclusive billionaire shark who was currently planning a hostile takeover of my father’s entire empire.

I was at my own engagement party at the Sterling estate when the world started tilting. Victoria Sterling, my future mother-in-law, smiled coldly as she watched me struggle with a cup of tea that had been drugged to ruin me. Before I could find my fiancé, Ryan, a waiter dragged me into the forbidden West Wing and locked me in a room with Julian Sterling, the family’s "fallen titan" who had been confined to a wheelchair for years. The door burst open to a frenzy of camera flashes and theatrical screams. Victoria framed me as a seductress caught in the act, and Ryan didn't even try to listen to my pleas, calling me "cheap leftovers" before walking away with his pregnant mistress. When I turned to my own family for help, my father signed a document severing our relationship for a five-million-dollar payout from Julian. They traded me like a commodity without a second thought. I didn't understand why my own parents were so eager to sell me, or how Ryan could look at me with such disgust after promising me forever. I was a sacrifice, a pawn used to protect the family's offshore accounts, and I couldn't fathom how every person I loved had a price tag for my destruction. With nowhere left to go, I married Julian in a bleak ceremony at City Hall. He slid a heavy diamond onto my finger and whispered, "We have a war to start." That night, inside his secret penthouse, I watched the paralyzed man stand up from his wheelchair and activate a screen filled with the Sterling family's darkest secrets. The execution had officially begun.
