    **Through Unseen Doors We Step Into Untold Worlds Beyond**


    by Sage Hunter Lane 163


    “Mr. Sumner, it’s been quite a while, hasn’t it? I recently heard that Prospectus Technology has made a significant investment in that government project over in the eastern suburb,” a man remarked, his voice smooth yet insistent.


    Damon, feeling the weight of the evening’s festivities pressing down on him, barely mustered the energy to engage in this conversation. He had little patience for idle chatter, especially not tonight. With a slight nod, he acknowledged the man’s presence, his tone t and unenthusiastic. “Good evening, Mr. Lowe.”


    As Damon found himself cornered by these business acquaintances, who seemed to have an unending supply of small talk and self-interest, N, on the other hand, had already wrapped up her own conversation. She was eager to escape the mor of the party, her mind yearning for a moment of peace amidst the chaos.


    Just then, a maid from the Sumner household hurried towards her, her expression a mix of urgency and concern. “Ms. Jayston, Ms. Cindy has requested your presence. She’s waiting for you at the pavilion in the garden,” the maid informed her, breathless as if she had sprinted to deliver the message.


    N’s brow furrowed slightly as she cast a quick nce towards Marie, her friend, and the party’s host. Noticing that Cindy was indeed absent from the gathering, a flicker of concern crossed her mind. “Did she mention what it’s regarding?” she inquired, her voice steady, though a hint of apprehension lingered beneath.


    “No, she didn’t specify, but it seemed quite urgent. Ms. Jayston, you really should go quickly,” the maid insisted, her eyes wide with a mixture of fear and determination.


    Sensing the urgency in the maid’s demeanor, N lowered her gaze momentarily, concealing the suspicion that began to bubble within her. “Understood. I’ll head there right away,” she replied, her tone firm yet measured.


    The maid remained close, not wanting to leave just yet. N, feeling the weight of the moment, added coolly, “This is a party, and there are many guests to attend to. You should return to your duties.”


    “Ms. Jayston, Ms. Cindy was very specific about me bringing you personally. If you aren’t seen, I could face consequences…” the maid exined, her voice trembling slightly as she borated on the potential repercussions of failing her task.


    N recognized the fear etched in the maid’s eyes and nodded, her resolve softening. “Alright then. Let’s go,” she conceded, feeling a flicker of triumph at having made the decision.


    As they moved, N couldn’t help but notice the brief spark of relief that illuminated the maid’s features. However, the path they took was not leading directly to the pavilion, and a sense of unease began to gnaw at N.


    After walking for what felt like an eternity, she halted, her voice steady butced with confusion. “Where exactly are you taking me?”


    The maid paused and turned to face her, an apologetic look crossing her face. “Ms. Jayston, I’m sorry…”


    Before she could finish her sentence, two additional maids emerged from the shadows, swiftly grabbing N’s arms with surprising strength.


    Feigning panic, N shouted, “What are you trying to do—”


    But her words were abruptly cut off as a sharp pain surged through the back of her neck, and the world around her faded into darkness as she lost consciousness.


    —


    In the grand hall, Cyrus observed the gathering with a calcted smile, feeling his phone vibrate twice in his pocket. He discreetly signaled to those surrounding Damon, who, sensing the cue, made some parting remarks before finding a usible excuse to slip away from the conversation.


    As he noticed Damon’s empty wine ss, a colder smile crept onto Cyrus’s face. “Damon, Mom mentioned yesterday that tonight’s guests are all notable figures from the city. If any of the youngdies catch your eye, just let her know, and she’ll make the arrangements,” Cyrus suggested, his toneced with a hint of mischief.


    Damon, already irritated from the relentless chatter of the guests and now the absence of N, responded coolly, “Not interested.”


    Cyrus couldn’t help but smirk inwardly. It wasn’t that Damoncked interest; it was simply that the woman who held his attention was none other than his niece-inw.


    “You’re not getting any younger, you know. Mom is so worried about your marital status that her hair is turning gray,” Cyrus chided, his voice dripping with faux concern.


    Damon’s expression remained impassive, betraying none of the irritation he felt at Cyrus’s incessant nagging. “Mom’s gray hair is merely a sign of aging. Besides, you and Cindy are married now, and that certificate only proves you’re legally bound. The number of mistresses you’ve had over the years could probably fill both hands,” he shot back, his tone dry and unyielding.


    Cyrus’s eyes widened in disbelief, caught off guard by his brother’s sharp retort. It was embarrassing to have his shorings aired in public, even if the gathering was rtively small and most guests were oblivious to their exchange.


    With a resigned sigh, Cyrus relented. “Alright… I admit I have no right to criticize you. I won’t bring it up again.”


    Damon set his wine ss down with a decisive clink and turned to leave without a backward nce at Cyrus.


    Watching Damon walk away, Cyrus felt a surge of anger boiling within him. After tonight, he would ensure that Damon learned to respect him and the family name!


    Stepping out onto the terrace, Damon was met by a brisk, cold breeze that sent a shiver through him, momentarily disorienting him. He took a deep breath, trying to shake off the unease that had settled in his chest, unaware of the storm brewing just beyond the unseen doors of the evening.Conclusion
