로그인We went upstairs together. Kane opened a door.
Inside was a huge double bed—the exact one I’d picked online before.
And everything in the room was in pairs!
Was Kane taking the initiative to live together with me?!
Hmph, Alpha—couldn’t hold back anymore and finally showed his feelings for me, huh?
As if afraid I’d misunderstand, Kane quickly explained, “Neville is here too. I was afraid he’d misunderstand, so I tempo
May asked nervously, “So… does that mean those fish were actually children who turned into fish? And what the villagers ate were actually kids?”As soon as that idea was voiced, quite a few people shuddered with chills.I, on the other hand, didn’t feel much at all. I’ve always believed that ghosts are never as terrifying as human hearts.Human nature is the most vicious and frightening thing in this world.Still, I put on a scared expression and scooted closer to Kane, almost pressing my entire body against him.Kane thought I was frightened and raised his arm to rest it on the back of the couch, making it look as if he was holding me protectively in his arms.The two of us thought these small movements wouldn’t be very noticeable under the dim candlelight, and that neither the viewers nor the other guests would see clearly.As it turned out, this exact moment was clipped by netizens and became th
Dwyn widened his eyes. “Hey, that’s an exaggeration!”“Do you want to hear the rest or not?”“Yes, yes, go on!”“That was when I was filming in Aeriflux that I ran into something really creepy. We were shooting night scenes until around three or four in the morning. When I got back to the hotel, I just collapsed onto the bed, planning to shower after I woke up.”“But in the middle of the night, someone kept blowing air into my ear, muttering in some strange language.”“I thought I was dreaming. I couldn’t understand a word, so I ignored it.”“The next morning, though, I woke up completely soaked—like I’d just been dragged out of the ocean. It smelled fishy and gross. I thought someone had snuck into my room to mess with me, so I asked the hotel to check the hallway surveillance.”“We watched the footage all night long. No
Because there were surveillance cameras in the room, there was no cameraman—only the contestants remained.Relying on my werewolf night vision, I tried to make out everything around me.Taking advantage of the darkness, May screamed and threw herself into Jevon’s arms.Jevon shoved her away in disgust. Completely unprepared, May fell backward, about to crash into me.Kane reached out with his long arm and pulled me straight into his chest.Bang.May hit the floor.The sound startled everyone again in the pitch-black room.Goselle clutched Yvonne. “What happened? Did someone fall?”Yvonne asked nervously, “It wasn’t a ghost dropping from the ceiling, was it? I remember there used to be a rope in your room, Goselle…”At her words, everyone instinctively recalled the first time they entered this room—there really had been a rope hanging from the chandelier, swayi
Kane’s POVI headed straight toward the entrance of the village. Just as I was about to step out, the cameraman hurriedly reminded me:“You’re not allowed to leave the village during filming.”So I stopped at the entrance.A silver mask covered most of my face, revealing only a sharp, angular jaw. With a cameraman behind me carrying a camera, I quickly drew the attention of passersby.One middle-aged woman approached first, eyeing me curiously. “Young man, what are you doing standing here?”I replied calmly, “Selling strategic advice in a lucky pouch.”“Strategic advice?”The crowd froze for a moment—then burst into laughter. Some praised me, others mocked me.“This kid’s got an entrepreneurial mind! Strategic pouches—that’s something ancient advisers used to do!”“Young man, how much is one of your pouches?&rdquo
But Kane refused, heading up the stairs quickly. I hurried to catch up.Once the live sale began, I explained the story behind Elephant-brand instant noodles to viewers: the brand employed disabled workers as part of a charity initiative. Whether they ate it or not, people bought first and figured it out later!By noon, Kane and I had sold thousands of packs. Payment wouldn’t come yet—we had to wait for all the other guests to finish selling before settling.After lunch, I returned to my quilting work.“Wasn’t it supposed to be a rest day? Quilting isn’t urgent!” Kane teased.“I’d better finish it quickly,” I replied with a gentle smile, sitting down to work. “My hand is fine now.”It wasn’t completely healed yet, but quilting wasn’t acupuncture—it didn’t require the same precision or strength.I could easily work with both hands at once.
“Do you want me to lend you some clothes too?”I shook my head, instinctively straightening my back, my tone carrying the pride of Eternity Pack’s eldest son. “Your clothes are poorly made and badly tailored. I’ll order custom clothes from VX.”VX was an exclusive international menswear brand that only accepted custom orders, and you couldn’t just pay your way in—you needed a VIP card. Fewer than a thousand people in the world had one.Even Eternity Pack had only one. Families like Joe’s, despite their wealth, couldn’t get one.Hearing the name VX, Joe’s smile stiffened. His expression became complex, like he wanted to say something but swallowed it. Finally, he just waved, “Fine, I’ll have the driver send you there.”I didn’t refuse. My energy was nearly spent from walking, and I needed to settle in quickly to watch Mia’s live broadcast.Joe had
But Avery’s appearance made me involuntarily think of last night’s dream. Or should I say, it wasn’t a dream, but a memory from my past life.Avery limped toward me, deliberately turning the half of his face that had been scratched to face me. I immediately saw through hi
"Lilith is lying! She nearly killed you. I was saving you, and then...""Shut up!" Avery slapped me. "Don’t try to justify yourself!""No matter what schemes you’re playing, I, Avery, will never forgive you!""I... I..."Avery’s voice lingered in my e
Alright, I was too lazy to care anymore, just as Kane’s message came through again.[Kane: What do you want to eat tonight? Neville will cook.][Me: Anything is fine. Do you want to join me?]After sending it, I suddenly felt ridiculous. I’m injured, so I should b
What had he gone to do so early? I muttered to myself, even the wolf inside me began to stir with idle thoughts, until the noise from outside the door snapped me back to reality.It was Goselle and Dwyn. Goselle was carrying a large bouquet of sunflowers, and Dwyn had a heavy fruit basket
