เข้าสู่ระบบA LONG CHAPTER FOR THE QUEENS☆☆LILA☆☆A week later, I could finally say one thing with confidence.Training still sucked.My body had started adjusting to it, but that didn't mean it hurt any less. Every morning, I woke up sore.Every time, Nyx found new and creative ways to make me question my life choices.And every time, I considered faking my own death.Unfortunately, Nyx would probably still make me train.I walked into the living room and immediately spotted Rowan standing in the kitchen.Without paying much attention to me, he slid a plate toward me.I stared at it.Then at him.Then back at the food."Thank you."He did not answer.As expected, I sat down and started eating.For a few moments, the only sound in the room was the clink of my cutlery while Rowan continued working in the living room.Then Rowan pushed a folder toward me."My detective found something."Immediately, my appetite disappeared. I put down my fork."What?""The land where your father died."My heart sk
☆☆LILA☆☆I stared at him.Then the counter.Then back at him."You can cook?"Rowan raised an eyebrow before saying, "I am currently standing in a kitchen making dinner.""That's not what I meant."He went back to chopping vegetables.I was still trying to process this."I thought you had a chef.""A chef?""Yeah.""Why?"I shrugged."Because breakfast is always ready before I wake up."He didn't even look up."I like eating breakfast early."I blinked, surprised."So you've been making breakfast every morning?""Yes.""And mine too?"That finally made him glance at me."You're under my care."The words came out matter-of-factly, like it was obvious.I hated how much my chest warmed at that."That's surprisingly nice.""It isn't."My smile widened."Oh?""I don't trust you enough to let you into my kitchen."The warmth immediately vanished."Excuse me?"He returned to cutting vegetables in a you-heard-me way.I stared at him in offense."You don't even know if I can cook."That earned
☆☆LILA☆☆I woke up feeling very sore, like someone had run a truck over me.For a moment, I just lay there staring at the ceiling and wondering if death was an option.Then I remembered Nyx and her training, and death seemed like a better option.With a groan, I forced myself out of bed and shuffled toward the living room.Nyx was already there. Of course she was.She was sitting on the couch with her arms crossed, looking far too awake for someone existing at this ungodly hour.The moment she saw me, a smirk spread across her face."Look who finally decided to roll out of bed."I narrowed my eyes."Excuse me for not being used to having every bone broken."Nyx snorted."Humans.""What about us?""You lot are lazy and dramatic."I stared at her."Wow. Good morning to you too."She stood up, not bothering to wait for me."Come on.""No.""Come on.""I literally cannot feel my legs.""You'll survive.""Will I?""Probably.""That's not reassuring.""It wasn't supposed to be."I groaned b
☆☆LILA☆☆Nyx was exactly as ruthless when training as I imagined she would be.The gym felt expanded than the last time I was in here, with padded floors, punching bags hanging from the ceiling, and the faint smell of sweat and metal filled the air.Nyx stood in front of me with her arms crossed, studying me like I was a disappointing science experiment.“Again,” she said.I exhaled slowly and tried to focus.She lunged first.Before I could react, her hand grabbed my wrist and twisted my arm behind my back.The next thing I knew, the floor slammed into my back.Hard.Pain shot through my shoulders and the air rushed out of my lungs.Nyx didn’t even look slightly impressed.“That was slow,” she said coldly. “If that was a real attack, you’d already be dead.”I groaned but forced myself to sit up.“Well, good thing this isn’t a real attack.”Nyx raised an eyebrow.“Stand up.”I pushed myself to my feet again.My leg protested slightly, but I ignored it.Nyx circled me slowly.“Humans a
☆☆LILA☆☆ After a week of Selene treating my leg, it was almost as good as new. The stitches were gone, and the pain had faded into nothing more than a dull ache whenever I walked too fast. Which meant there was absolutely no reason for me to still be here. Selene was packing up her medical supplies when I finally said it. “I think I should move downstairs. I’m fine now.” Selene hesitated. Just for a moment. Then she said, “The room downstairs is already occupied.” I frowned. “By who?” Selene didn’t answer at first. "Hmmm Ivy, she had an issue with her apartment." Something about the way she avoided my eyes made me suspicious. Later that afternoon, Ivy came to give me fruits “What happened to your apartment?” I asked. While we were sitting down in the living room Ivy blinked. “My apartment? Nothing happened to it.” I frowned. “I thought you were staying downstairs with Selene.” Ivy froze. For a moment, she looked like she had just realised she’d said something she
☆☆LILA☆☆ Pain was the first thing I felt the moment I opened my eyes. The painkillers must have worn off. A dull ache spread through my leg the moment I tried to move it. I inhaled sharply. For a moment, I just stared at the ceiling, trying to remember where I was. Then the memories came back all at once. The training field. The wolf that attacked me. And Rowan being a jerk when I woke up. But how exactly did I get here? I slowly pushed myself up on the bed, careful this time. My leg protested immediately, but at least the pain wasn’t as sharp as before. At least I wasn't crippled. The room was quiet. I looked around slowly. I swung my legs carefully over the side of the bed, testing my balance before standing at least I tried to. The moment my injured leg touched the floor, a sharp sting shot through it. But it held. Barely. “Great,” I muttered. Just then, the door opened. Selene stepped inside holding a small tray, but the moment she saw me standing, her eyes widen
☆☆LILA ☆☆I kept staring at the first person who had made me feel welcome in this crazy world. One way or the other, she had made me feel more comfortable, and now she was sitting at the same table with my kidnapper, laughing and talking with them like they were friends. Maybe they were.Everyone w
☆☆LILA☆☆Selene didn’t slow her pace as she led me through the apartment levels.“This whole building,” she said, gesturing vaguely around us, “is pack housing.”I looked around as we walked. Doors lined the corridors, each one different. Some were decorated with plants, others with symbols carved
☆☆LILA☆☆The maid came in again, quiet as always. She set down the tray and left before I could even ask her what day it was.She gave me bread, meat, and soup. Normal. I sniffed it. Not poisoned. Not yet. But the spoon and fork were still plastic. I stared at them for a long second. Then sighed. T
☆☆LILA☆☆ I didn’t sleep. Not because of the cold, or the IVF that was finally gone. But because I didn't have my sleeping pills with me. I contemplated asking Rowan for it but decided against it. My thoughts drifted back yesterday when he removed my IVF. The way he removed the needle carefull
