Endless Chasing Chapter 1 Epilogue

"You can not get away from me! You will always be a crane! You belong to my cage! A bird that couldn't and shouldn't be flying!" a fierce man shouts, that's the emperor.

"They say a crane and serpent can harmonize but only if they are a man and a woman," the voice shattered, he's the lover of the emperor. A man. The man continues, "The world is against us. A man is only for a woman. You should not be with a man too. You're an emperor think of your people and the future of the empire. We already fight enough. It's time for us to rest. There are battles that we can't win even we want to," a shaky voice said.

"Call me wicked but I can't allow it! Jail him!" Emperor said with dark eyes and a deep voice. The two guards assist the other person to the cell. Before the frantic man leaves, his lover talks, "You're not awful for not letting me go because I am the happiest person when I am with you. You're cruel because you don't wish us to be happy. This is the only way I know how to love you. Tell you to leave and let go. Let's meet in our next life and I yearn the wait will be short, and meaningful like a poet. For now, let me savor each letter that I wrote to the pages of the story that we used to be the main characters," the emperor stop and replied, "I won't let you leave this cage even you despise me. If this will be the only way I can keep you? Then live it.", after that, he left.

A month has passed, and the emperor married a woman, and his lover in the prison commit suicide. The emperor got miserable and vanished. No one knows where he is at now.

Grayson Ramey opens his eyes and whispered, "What a dream."

When Grayson was young, a woman asked while slowly caressing his hair, "Child. Do you know why I named you Grayson?"

"Hmmm? Why mother? I wanted to know too, I'm intending to ask you back then but I lost it in my mind?" from lying down, the man suddenly gets up and sits. He faces his mother with curiosity in his eyes. His mother displays a gentle smile and responds, "A man wrote a short story titled, A struggle of Our life, her daughter complained that she's tired of fighting and struggling. Like a normal life of a middle-class family. It seemed when one problem has solved, another soon followed."

The mother stopped talking, so Grayson asked, "What's next mother?" the lady extends her hand and holds her child's hand, "her father, a chef, placed three pots and put water on them. After, he placed them on the three-made clay stove. When the water is boiling, the father puts the potato on the first pot, the egg on the second, and the coffee beans on the last. The last thing he did is remove what the pot contains. The daughter asked what he's doing; the father invited his daughter to press the potato, peel the shell of the egg and observe what happened to the bean. The potato was hard, but because of boiling water it became soft and weak, the fragile egg became hard. However, the coffee bean is unique, it created something new. He asked her, "Which one are you?"

"Grayson my child, the meaning behind your name is a desire to understand. I want you to possess the loving truth of life, to understand that life isn't about all happiness. One day, you will be glad that you didn't give up because it leads you to where you at in the future. You need to know that it's not always the stormy day but what will have after the rain and thunder."

Tears drop run down into Grayson's cheek, reminiscing his mother. He's 23 years old now but his mother's memory is still fresh to his mind. Today is his mother's funeral. She died from brain cancer, they discovered her illness when it's already severe. They thought that the constant headache is just because of the lack of sleep.

This is where Grayson Ramey's life started to change.

People often dream that maybe in a hot spotlight; at someone's eyes, the movements of their foot, the swing of their hands, and the glow of their eyes are captivating.

Grayson wore the dragon robe, this type of dress was the emperor's robe in ancient times. It suits him because he is Chinese, and has white skin, neither of his height is small nor tall, just fine. Pink lips and long eyelashes, brown eyes, and pure black hair. He's the type of man that you will surely look back to twice because even he is a man, his thin skin, soft face, and the exact size of his body occurs like a woman. He is wearing it as an outfit because he will be performing in a moment now. They are no longer in historical time, technologies have been developed and expand. So wearing that kind of robes is no longer the case.

The light dimmed and that is the indication that he needs to start. He slowly walks on the stage and the spotlight turned to him, and all spectators have become silent. The piano started to play, he closed his eyes and slowly swing his hands, and move his foot. He also moves his head and you can see the gentleness of the dance, and it feels like he's performing for a movie. He is like a gem that shines in the dark.

After he finished dancing and opens his eyes, he met someone's eyes, staring at him carefully and deeply. It made his heart jump one beat. He turned around and left but couldn't remove to his mind the man that glances at him a while ago. The man has piercing and tattoos on his arm, broad chest, and brown skin but cold eyes.

"Prepare your things and change your clothes so we can go home and rest," he only came back to his senses when someone lectures. He just disregarded the thought about the man he noticed a while ago.

Soon after: Grayson had already forgotten it. Not until when he came to visit a shop where he usually come to rent a costume; he saw the man standing firmly and brushing the emperor's robe with his hand, and that robe was the one he used when they first met. He froze and when the man turned to him, he can't help but his heart started beating fast and loud.

Again and again and again. Just like when they first met.

It feels that he recognized the man.

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband’s Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn’t find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn’t even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father’s legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn’s party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara’s health and managing every detail of Caden’s empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I’d drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause—if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I’d forgotten.

Rain hammered against the asphalt as my sedan spun violently into the guardrail on the I-95. Blood trickled down my temple, stinging my eyes, while the rhythmic slap of the windshield wipers mocked my panic. Trembling, I dialed my husband, Clive. His executive assistant answered instead, his voice professional and utterly cold. "Mr. Wilson says to stop the theatrics. He said, and I quote, 'Hang up. Tell her I don’t have time for her emotional blackmail tonight.'" The line went dead while I was still trapped in the wreckage. At the hospital, I watched the news footage of Clive wrapping his jacket around his "fragile" ex-girlfriend, Angelena, shielding her from the storm I was currently bleeding in. When I returned to our penthouse, I found a prenatal ultrasound in his suit pocket, dated the day he claimed to be on a business trip. Instead of an apology, Clive met me with a sneer. He told me I was nothing but an "expensive decoration" his father bought to make him look stable. He froze my bank accounts and cut off my cards, waiting for the hunger to drive me back to his feet. I stared at the man I had loved for four years, realizing he didn't just want a wife; he wanted a prop he could switch off. He thought he could starve me into submission while he played father to another woman's child. But Clive forgot one thing. Before I was his trophy wife, I was Starfall—the legendary voice actress who vanished at the height of her fame. "I'm not jealous, Clive. I'm done." I grabbed my old microphone and walked out. I’m not just leaving him; I’m taking the lead role in the biggest saga in Hollywood—the one Angelena is desperate for. This time, the "decoration" is going to burn his world down.

It is intense, raw and messy, and explores the darker side of desire. ***** "Take off your dress, Meadow." "Why?" "Because your ex is watching," he said, leaning back into his seat. "And I want him to see what he lost." ••••*••••*••••* Meadow Russell was supposed to get married to the love of her life in Vegas. Instead, she walked in on her twin sister riding her fiance. One drink at the bar turned to ten. One drunken mistake turned into reality. And one stranger's offer turned into a contract that she signed with shaking hands and a diamond ring. Alaric Ashford is the devil in a tailored Tom Ford suit. Billionaire CEO, brutal, possessive. A man born into an empire of blood and steel. He also suffers from a neurological condition-he can't feel. Not objects, not pain, not even human touch. Until Meadow touches him, and he feels everything. And now he owns her. On paper and in his bed. She wants him to ruin her. Take what no one else could have. He wants control, obedience... revenge. But what starts as a transaction slowly turns into something Meadow never saw coming. Obsession, secrets that were never meant to surface, and a pain from the past that threatens to break everything. Alaric doesn't share what's his. Not his company. Not his wife. And definitely not his vengeance.
