Tiara Millicent Silvano is considered as one of the most famous and influential prima ballerinas.
She was at the top. There was no place to go. There was nothing more to reach for. Control, which had been the power she yielded from a very young age...

A/N: This book is officially completed in Patreon but as of now hindi na ako tumatanggap ng new subscribers dahil ayoko sanang ma-charge ang current members na naka-monthly membership kaya naka-pause ang account ko. I will announce just in case I'll create another Patreon for those who want to read this in full ♡
PS: Kalmahan niyo kay Tiara. Ang masasabi ko lang, nakabawi na si Domino sa chapter 43 #PunishmentNiDomDomino ;)
CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE: LOCK
TIARA'S POV
"Easy."
Napakurap na nilingon ko ang pinanggalingan ng boses. I found Adrien standing at the now-open door of the van. Nakataas ang mga kamay niya tanda ng pagsuko. Sa likod niya ay nakatayo ang dalawang malaking lalaki habang ang isa pa na kasama ko sa loob ng van ay nakahawak na sa baril niya.
Kung sa ibang pagkakataon siguro ay baka natawa ako sa kaniya. The expression on his face seems almost comical. His eyes are wide like saucers, as if he's been startled out of his wits.
"I forgot that you're more precious than the Mona Lisa," he joked before throwing a look at the men behind him. "Sorry. I won't do it again."
"You're lucky you didn't get shot." Shaking my head, I hop off the van. I looked at my three bodyguards. Sila lang ang kasama ko dahil nagawa kong kumbinsihin ang ama ko na hindi ko kailangan na isama ang iba pa. "It's okay. That man wouldn't hurt anyone. He once set up a wake for the grasshopper he accidentally stepped on when we were in the ballet academy. I doubt he has the stomach to kill a person."
Nalukot ang mukha ni Adrien. I didn't mention that he was drunk at that time. Nag-effort pa siyang maghanap ng gagawing kabaong para tipaklong at ang posporo na nakita niya noon ang napagtripan niya. He even lit scented candles for the insect that he murdered. Then he called me to tell me all about it.
"Do you have stuff to donate?" he asked.
"They're in the back."
He nodded, giving my bodyguards a quick look before he walked to the back of the van.
Humugot ako ng malalim na hininga at sandaling ipinikit ko ang mga mata ko. I'd arrived earlier than Adrien, but instead of going out, I stayed inside the van to wait for him. There's a huge part of me that wants to make an excuse, so I won't need to come today. Hindi ko lang talaga magawa. I can't do that to them. Not when they've been so great to me.
So here I am. Putting on my big girl pants and sucking in the ball of protest that I could feel in my stomach.
"Let's go."
Pinasadahan ko ng tingin si Adrien. Bukod sa box ko ng mga gamit ay wala siyang ibang dala. "You're not going to donate?"
"You know I don't have a lot of things." He winked at me. "But I have a lot of money."
