Mag-log inUnlike the human world I came from, this was a world where women usually held the highest positions in werewolf society.Women were generally the heads of their families, and their wolf ranks determined how much power and influence they had.Vespera herself was a B-rank wolf, which made her a high-ranking woman. A-rank wolves were considered Alphas, the strongest and most influential among them.D-rank wolves and below were generally weaker and occupied lower positions in society.Of course, there were exceptions.Take the Nile family, for example. Both parents were B-rank wolves, which meant the husband held a much higher position than most men. But their son was an A-rank Alpha, and that was the reason they were so ridiculously proud of themselves. Still, in most families, the woman was the head. Assuming I hadn't taken over Vespera's body and she had attended that auction with one of them, and then the Nile family had barked at Rhydian to go sit at the back... let's say she would
The ride home was silent. Well, except for Rhydian's thoughts that never stopped. *Is this for real? Did she actually...* He stopped to glance at me, then swallowed. I pretended to be busy on my tablet. *She got me the crystal? For real?* His fingers caressed the crystal, like he was trying to confirm that it was real, *This has to be a dream. There's no way this is real. I can't believe it. Why did she do this? What's the catch?*I almost rolled my eyes again. Instead, I looked up and smiled at him, "How are you feeling? Still in pain?"His lips parted, "H...how did you know I needed this? I never told you,"Oh, shit. That's true. He's yet to tell Vespera about this, but I had the perfect excuse, "I overheard you talking to Kaelen about it a few days ago." I said, then I added, "Feel better soon, okay?"Then, I leaned back and pretended again, listening to his thoughts. *She sounds so genuine. Is there really not a catch?* He shook his head slightly, *No, there has to be. She is
I walked up to them, Rhydian just a step behind me. The moment they saw me, I saw the gleam of mischief in their eyes. *Here comes the fatty,* Isolde said and chuckled. *Why is she here? What is she hoping to buy? I mean, isn't she about to go broke or something?* Seraphina asked herself with a scoff. I listened to them, and it only fueled my rage to get my revenge. "Isolde, Seraphina. It's good to see you two," I said, without keeping the bitterness out of my voice. It sounded like I was dragging the words out. "Vespera, likewise," Seraphina replied flatly. Glad we weren't faking anything. "Vespera, what have you come here hoping to buy?" Isolde asked curiously, "I hope you're just here to watch because, well, we don't have to remind you of your terrible financial situation now, do we?" She was the one who loved to openly mock Vespera. "She's obviously here to watch," Seraphina replied, "No need to ask her that question,""Come on, you never know," Isolde said, and then she
He looked up and frowned at me. I cleared my throat and quickly added, "I mean...I was just saying hello."His expression grew even more suspicious.*She's definitely planning something,*I almost rolled my eyes.Could I blame him, though? The original Vespera had probably never greeted him without demanding something, threatening him, or finding a reason to punish him.And she had exploited his incredible physical strength to the bone — forcing an E-rank wolf to carry out backbreaking manual labor around the estate day in and day out, acting as if his muscles existed purely for her amusement.I glanced at the papers in front of me, then back at him, "Have you eaten?""Yes, my lady," He replied. *Are you out of your mind? Why would you ask me if I've eaten when you specifically told the kitchen attendants only to prepare us meals twice a week!* I let out a long sigh. Oh Vespera Veyne, the villainess you are!"You're a terrible liar, Draven," I said softly, watching his eyes narrow i
I found something comfortable to wear before leaving the room. Vespera loved to dress glamorously every time, like the queen she believed herself to be, but I wasn't about to do that since I wasn't her. I opened the bedroom door and stepped into the corridor. And immediately spotted Rhydian.He stood near one of the tall windows, dressed in black trousers and a dark shirt. His hair fell carelessly over his forehead, and his expression was as cold as ever.I'd taken just one step toward him when I started to hear his thoughts again, and it made me want to turn around. *Wonderful. Here comes the headache.*Seriously? I hadn't even spoken to him!I kept walking toward him, putting up a warm smile on my face. "Is there something you need, my lady?" He asked in a polite voice when I got close enough. *Please don't ask me to do anything.* He groaned internally. The thought almost made me smile, because I did need something from him. But first, I wanted to know why he looked so exhauste
Oh, my God." I clapped both hands over my mouth, "Oh, MY GOD!"I spun around, looking for a hidden camera, a television crew, or literally anything that could explain why I'd gone to sleep at my office desk and woken up in a billionaire's bedroom.I found nothing. Just me as someone else!!Quickly, I headed to the bedside table and grabbed the phone lying there to check the date. That should confirm things...and it definitely did. I was definitely inside the novel, and it looks like I had one month.The Wolf-Zombie Apocalypse would begin in one month, which means I had time. "Okay, Vespera. Think." I said as I lowered the phone, taking deep breaths to calm down, "You have one month to prepare for the apocalypse, two evil stepsisters to deal with, three wolf husbands who hate your guts, and billions in inheritance."I froze, then a slow smile spread across my face.Billions.Actual billions.The bedroom door suddenly opened, and I spun around to see three men walking in. Three, brea
