The Unseen Kingdom That Followed Me Into Every Dream by Alyndra Meron Valeen 22 Summary Hera finds herself surrounded by a group of men who ignore her warnings and try to harass her. Just as they are about to grab her, a group of tall men in black suits suddenly appear and swiftly slap the harassers, freezing them in place. One of the men holding Hera tries to assert control, claiming she is his girlfriend, but the intimidating presence of the new arrivals quickly silences him. Morgan then emerges from the bar and confronts the harassers, revealing Hera's identity as the CEO of Edge Inc.

The men, shocked by her status, immediately back off and flee. Morgan apologizes to Hera for their late arrival and asks if she is okay. Hera, swaying slightly and looking distant, insists she is fine but tells Morgan to send the others home, mentioning that Sebastian will not be coming that night. Morgan helps Hera into a waiting luxury car and asks where she wants to go. She requests a moment of silence before finally opening up about Sebastian's absence, expressing hurt and confusion over why he didn't come despite her calls. Morgan cautiously suggests it might be connected to Mr.

Castle, but Hera's voice trembles as she wonders if Sebastian still loves her or cares about her safety. The car ride is quiet and tense. Morgan offers to take her home, but Hera instead asks to be taken to the office, indicating she is not ready to face her personal pain yet and perhaps seeking some form of refuge or control amid her emotional turmoil.
