Estelle’s heart ached as she held him tighter, burying herself in his embrace. “Jonathan, I owe you so
much, I know that!”
Jonathan replied softly, “You owe me nothing. It’s just that I’ve fallen for you beyond my control.”
Her heart ached even more, “Don’t say that, it’ll just make me feel more guilty.”
Jonathan pulled her close to his chest, whispering, “If feeling guilty means you’ll share everything with
me from now on, then I can share even more about how I got through these past three days.”
Clutching his shirt, Estelle held him tightly. He was her beacon, the strength and courage she needed
to move through the darkness!
The anger of Jonathan slowly dissipated as he turned to kiss her temple gently.
“Don’t be afraid, I’m here now.”
“Mhm,” Estelle nodded, her voice laced with dependence and a hint of a choke.
Trapped in a nightmare, her consciousness and life force ebbing away, it was his image she envisioned
in the pitch-black night, standing behind her, urging her not to go any further.

After a while, Estelle looked up. “How come Sylvia was with you?”
Jonathan’s dark eyes met hers. “You don’t know her?”
“I’ve seen her once at Magdalen’s place. Does she have another identity?”
“Sylvia is her code name,” Jonathan explained.
Estelle was slightly taken aback. “One of Gab’s people?”
She had heard of this Sylvia but had never met her. There were many people in Gab’s circle whom she
hadn’t encountered.
Jonathan nodded. “Sylvia was bought out of a bad situation by your brother when she was eight and
kept close for personal training. Unlike you, she was taught to master the art of charming men. But a
few years ago, after a mission, something happened. and she left the organization. After several twists
and turns, she ended up in J City, starting her own PR firm. Even though she cut off her ties with your
brother, she probably kept working for Gab. Now that Gab’s gone missing, she’s been searching for
him too.”
Realization dawned on Estelle. “So that’s it.”
Sylvia came to Zion in search of Gab as well.
No wonder she knew her and said they shared a common goal.
“My brother must be in Zion, I have this intuition! And oh,” Estelle’s gaze sharpened, “Zack is in Zion
too. I saw him at the banquet tonight. He’s sided with Raiden, and Raiden knows my identity.”
“Zack?” A flicker of ruthlessness crossed Jonathan’s eyes. “Good, I’ll settle this once and for all!”
Estelle spoke firmly, “This Raiden knows me, and he knows Gab as well. He might have been one of
Gab’s men before. He’s secretive and unscrupulously vicious. Be careful yourself!”
“Did you miss me?” Jonathan asked out of the blue.
Estelle was startled, then her heart melted. “Of course.”
She thought of him every day!
Jonathan gazed at her deeply, cradling her face and leaning down to kiss her lips.

That he was here in Zion, standing before her, filled her senses with the familiar scent of his presence,
it all still felt like a dream.
Jonathan’s kiss grew more passionate as he reached to remove her maid’s outfit.
Estelle caught his hand. “No, I can’t stay long. Raiden might be monitoring my movements.”
Jonathan’s eyes were dark as the night, his breath warm against her forehead. “Do whatever you need
to. I’m here now, and no one will dare touch you again.”
Estelle smiled. “Let’s not reveal our relationship just yet.”
Jonathan paused, then conceded, “I understand.”
That’s why he had restrained himself when he saw her earlier.
“Even without making it known, I can protect you.”
Estelle smiled. “I know, Mr. Alvis! I’ve always admired the Alvis name. He turned the war-torn and
desolate Mystoria Federation into a land of order, strength, and prosperity, where no one dares to
cause insult any longer. Just like my brother, he is one of my heroes!”
