Chapter 122
The torch started to run out of oil. It wouldn’t be able to provide light any minute. But that’s not what made Layla worried, instead, the sinister smile on Darius’ face was making her skin crawl. She felt a sudden familiarity from the guy as if she had met him before aside from their encounter the day before in front of the candy stall. Unfortunately, Layla couldn’t put a finger on it. She could only ask him for his true identity and hope to get an answer.
“Didn’t you just call me ‘Darius’? That should be my name, right?”Layla should have already been convinced and wouldn’t bother doubting his words if he said it earlier. After observing the guy, she noticed his change of attitude compared to when she met him the other day. And even after considering that it was because of his ‘faking skill’, Layla still couldn’t relax. She knew there was something Darius was hiding from her.“All right, Darius. So, what did you do to Victor? You were so sure about hiBab terkait

“Antidote?” Darius asked, surprised.“Yeah. Since you’re the one who made the poison, you should also know how to make the antidote,” Layla said. The story she heard from Darius changed her mind. She made up her mind to stop Victor from his fantasies. Firstly, she’s not a human. A fact that she only realized later when she met Zev. Secondly, she’s been marked by the alpha. There’s no way she could be with another man other than Zev. Not that she wanted to stay by Victor’s side, but because she had no choice, rather her heart couldn’t make up a lie to part with her master.“If you want me to help you with your plan, you should help me get the antidote first and foremost, Darius. That’s basic,” she continued. “How do you expect me to help you if my body remains to be contaminated by this poison you made, huh?”The guy shook his head. “But it’s not a poison. It’s simply a potion and there’s no antidote,” Darius insisted. “The effects should only make one h

‘A person could never choose his roots but would always have a chance to decide on a way of living and the fruits they bear should be the one to look at, not the origin of the seed which could merely just survived out of luck…or perhaps its fate as what most considered,’ Layla told herself as she looked at Darius who was obediently nodding his head while listening to what she said.The guy could be just like her, never wished to be born as a vampire who needed to suck the other’s blood to survive… Just as how much she wished she wasn’t born a werewolf, whose body and face turned into an animal that could devour a life of a person without feeling bad during the process. And it made her wonder whether Zev and the other Weres glad about being who they were…and Victor, who was consumed by his emotion- thanks to his father who neglected him for being weak, Layla was eager to know about how they exactly feel.One thing was for sure, Layla was not satisfied at all. But
Midnight Feast Chapter 125
It had only been three days since Boris arrived in the capital, and it had also been three long days of dealing with Layla’s absence. Lucian, who stayed with him in the mansion kept pacing back and forth in front of him as he blamed himself for letting the vampire clan took the young lady. Boris couldn’t blame him, even he felt the same for leaving Layla alone in her room at that particular moment. If only one of them had stayed, the young lady wouldn’t be taken away.“Take a seat, will you? My head couldn’t stop spinning if you continue doing that in front of me,” Boris said, waving a hand at Lucian who stopped and glared at him. “Don’t give me that look. We’re both dead if we can’t take her along when we go back,” he added, sighing.“You know that we’ll die if we can’t get her back, but you’re sitting your ass comfortably like it wasn’t a big deal at all!” Lucian said in a loud voice, lashing out his anger on Boris who chose to calm down and think of a solution

“Uhm…” Layla whimpered to the touch she felt all over her body. There was something heavy on top of her, and she hadn’t had the slightest idea what it was. Her mind was in a blank state that she couldn’t think straight. She didn’t know what to think about in the first place. Layla was exhausted, both her mind and body refused to work for a certain moment. And that was the very first time she wished she was dead.“Layla~” It was the same voice calling her for the past few days. She didn’t know who it was nor that she tried to know anyway. One thing for sure, Layla didn’t care about whose voice it was. She didn’t care about anything at all. She just wanted to feel peace…even if it meant staying in the dark place where she could see and hear nothing.“Urgh…” Her voice came out rather subtle. She recognized her voice but was not a bit interested as to why she was making such a sound. Moans and groans came out of her mouth repeatedly like its all the sound it could ma

*cough* *cough*Layla couldn’t stop coughing blood. Her will was strong and yet her body needed recuperation. She’s almost at her limit, if not for Darius giving her a recovery potion, she must have already kicked the bucket. The thing was, even if she’s still alive, her body remained so weak after getting amputated. The scars that were left by whips and sticks weren’t fading at all, making Layla look nothing less than how she did when she was first sent as the ‘offering’ to the demon of the west.As part of the plan, Layla had to wear the white satin dress she wore before. It was well crafted for someone who’s going to die, either by the severe injuries she contained or getting eaten. Knowing what could happen to her when Zev found her on the altar wearing the same dress which his previous preys wore, Layla couldn’t help but feel a little relieved that she could replace someone. She didn’t expect Zev to hold back h

The clouds slowly covered the sky earlier in the evening. No stars could be seen, leaving the deepening night into darkness. In a few hours, the glory of the full moon was expected. And for the meantime, evil was taking the chance to lurked in the widespread shadow. Darkness was evil’s best friend and chaos was always to be expected when these two meet.“Your Majesty,” Levius mumbled, greeting Zev who was silently sitting on the armchair inside his room. “Everyone is ready,” he informed, bending down to pay his respect.Zev didn’t say a word but lifted his hand and slightly waved it. He expected Levius to understand the gesture which the latter did.“I’m going to stay by your side tonight, Your Majesty,” Levius said, straightening his back. “If only my brother, Lucian is here… I’ll be more at ease to leave your safety in his hands.”“Pfft…” Zev laughed. “How long do you plan to act as if you care? Nobody is here to find out about your real identity… Ah, it’s
Midnight Feast Chapter 129
If there was one place which the moon seemed to favor the most, it would be no other than the Verte peninsula. The moonlight beamed on the spaces between the leaves and twigs of the lush trees in the forest, illuminating even the grounds underneath the shades. The warm and gentle light radiating from the moon in its fullest form penetrated all the lifeforms below, gracing their humble existence with its loving light.One of them was Zev Wesley, the only descendant of the Wesley family from the werewolf clan. As the strongest among other Weres, he was honored to enjoy a feast that everyone couldn’t afford. His beastly nature was never fulfilled and thus, having a feast once in every month, at the most special moment when the full moon rose above the skies. Zev would have to satisfy the demon within him by gobbling up anything offered to him in the alter. And just like the previous occasion, at midnight, Zev Wesley found a human offering on the altar.There shouldn’t be a

The howls of wolves, as well as the seemingly endless cries, could be heard from afar. It shouldn’t be too much to listen to except for Layla who could recognize each and everyone’s voices despite the distance. She shut her eyes tightly while shifting to her beast form, doing the same trick she tried before when her feet were cut off. With hopes that her legs could grow back, Layla endured the pain as her body changed its shape…turning her into a majestic creature under the faint moonlight.“You don’t have to force yourself to shift,” Zev said, looking at her with those lovely silver-gray eyes that kept glowing like rare gems in the night.Layla shook her head. She wanted to surpass her limit. And even though she was beaten into a pulp, after getting close to Zev, having to sniff his unique woody scent, and kissed him with deep affection, she felt like everything was possible. Layla knew her chances of surviving the pain at th
