Chapter: 127Marcus stepped closer to me, wearing a delighted grin as he stared at me lustfully. His eyes raked down my body then he caught my gaze again and said, “Consider it a favor to a former friend.”“A favour.” I frowned, “Who is it?”“Be patient, Nara. I’m sure you’ll find out soon.”I stepped in front of him to block his way. “If you’re helping him, you can as well help him to the end. What can a girl like me do anyway?” I stepped closer to him and added in a whisper, “A weak human girl. All I seek is the truth.”“Then the truth will come to you.” He grinned again, “Nara, they say curiously kills the cat so I’m going to have to make you patient for this one.”I scoffed, “This must be fun to you.”“Entertainment like this is hard to come by.”“Entertainment?” I cocked a brow, looking at him like he was unbelievable. “Whoever the culprit is, murdered an innocent girl. He is worse than an animal. He’s a fucking coward and you protecting him makes you one as well.”Marcus’s eyes flashed with

Chapter: 126With how constantly I have had to jump from my balcony to Landon’s balcony, my body had become used to the movement. As usual, his door wa unlocked, almost as if he’d left it open for me to invade his room whenever I wanted. The moment I slid the door open though, the person inside jumped in fright. I saw Ivy looking back at me with alarm. When she saw it was just me, whe tried to be calm, holding her chest. “Why didn’t you make any sound?”“Don’t tell me you thought it was an assassin.” I teased but Ivy’s expression only grew serious.My body tensed and I pinned her with a look. “You were really expecting an Assassin?”Ivy shifted on her feet and told me. “We are well prepared this time. There’s nothing to worry about.”“Tell me what is going on.” I demanded, “Landon is in danger. I deserve to know what he has planned out.”“As what? His friend? His mate?” She whirled around to face me, “You already told him you can’t be with him and that’s already making him suffer but he is willi

Chapter: 125“Nara, are you okay?” Leo asked me when he found me again, holding all the snacks we bought that we were going to take to Emily. “You look pale.” He added and I touched my warm face. I was anxious. “I’m fine.” I lied and Leo looked at me like he didn’t believe me but that was the least I could be worried about right now.The way Dina spoke, I couldn’t get it out of my mind. It didn’t entirely feel like she was giving me that warning so I wouldn’t get in Landon’s way. It was almost like she feared for my life.It was a laughable thought. Dina obviously hated me. She would’ve announced I was human to everyone if she didn’t think she could make me suffer a more terrible fate.That was what she said. But what if it was a bluff because she couldn’t imagine showing me any kindness?I mean, your enemies definitely won’t give you heads up if they see you’re about to be attacked. But Dina did, even though it was in a round about way. There was something more and I have to find out what it is

Chapter: 124I wondered what it was I have been doing wrong. First it was Gavin, then Marcus and now Dina. How did she know I was human?At this point, I couldn’t utter another word and Dina looked at me smugly, “So are you coming with me or not?”I swallowed hard. My pride, my stubbornness and I followed her to an empty corner.“H-how did you know?” I asked. She and Emily were close. Could it be that Emily told her?“Uncle looked into you and he found out you’re not from the pack you claim to be from.”I thought about my last conversation with Landon’s uncle. At the time, I didn’t believe he suspected me so I thought it there was no cause ro worry. “I couldn’t understand why you would need to fake your identity but when I heard how you passed out when the red root was sprayed after the humans attack and how Landon protected you then the rumors flying around that time, I figured it out. It all began to make sense to me.” Her lips stretched into a bitter smile. “They are all helping you, aren’t t

Chapter: 123“Is it just me or are you getting more and more beautiful.” Harold teased as he joined us. I shook my head, my lips stretching. “We take good care of her.” Leo chimed in, “Of course she is going to look beautiful.”“It’s not like you buy me beauty products.”“But we are fattening you up. See, I always order for the best thing available in the menu for you.”“That’s right. You look plump too.” Harold added and I rolled my eyes. “So are you saying I’m getting more beautiful or I’m getting fatter?”Leo and Harold went quiet, not daring to answer. “Did you hear, Marcus is hosting a get together with a few selected people. Close friends I hear.” Harold told us. I frowned, as Leo and I exchanged a look “I didn’t hear that.”“The invitations will arrive soon.” Harold said and I realized he was usually the first to know what was happening in the ship. “I was thinking since you and Landon are no longer a thing at the moment, how about you go with me?”“No way.” Leo blocked him from view,

Chapter: 122Day 25“Why can’t he see me, Nara? I’ve tried everything. What does he want me to do before he can see my feelings for him?” Emily has been lamenting non stop, drunk as fuck as we relaxed in the private lounge. Her feelings for Kain were becoming stronger and so, I didn’t blame her. Kain was acting blind to all her advances. “Maybe you should try telling him directly. That way, he will have to face you whether he likes it or not.”“N-no..” she shook her head, and gulped down the remaining wine in the glass cup. “I know for a fact he is going to reject me.”“You can’t know that.”“Not when I can see he likes someone else.” She gave me a look, “You. Why are they all obsessed with you? What exactly is your secret?”“Witchcraft?” I cocked a brow and we both burst out laughing. “Very ridiculous.” She said, None of those men would ever fall for something like this. “Most people believe it though.”“Because their dumb as fuck.”I sighed and took her hand, telling her for the hundredth ti
