Chapter 53
The sound of wind pressure swiftly coming was clear enough for Layla to dodge before she could hear Zev’s voice warning her of the incoming trouble. She slid to the side avoiding the blow which towards her. Thanks to her incredible hearing ability which she acquired after spending years inside the underground cell she was locked in. Layla knew she could be stood a chance in a one-on-one fight if her reflexes were good enough which she just started to train. No one would have thought she would be tested the moment she came back to Zev’s mansion. Even though confused, Layla focused as she checked the person who was trying to hit her.
‘Lucian?’ She wondered why the man only appeared after his disappearance the other day. Well, it wasn’t like Lucian would help her when she was about to get killed. The man was too loyal to betray Zev and by the looks of it, he might have thought she was trying to kill him thus he attacked her. Especially when Zev was too weak to say some

Growls and grunts brought Zev back to his senses. The pain he felt was gone although there was something in his chest which made him uncomfortable. He ignored the weird sensation and pulled himself up. There was no one beside him and the broken glass scattered around caught his attention.“Ugh…” He groaned when he felt dizzy. He was sure the symptoms were due to the poison in his body. It had been a few days since he was infected from Layla’s bite and so many things had happened which made him forget about extracting the poison out of his system. Not that he had some ways to do it, but trying should have lessened the pain.“Ah!” A guttural scream coming from outside alarmed Zev. To his surprise, it sounded like Lucian’s voice. He remembered giving the latter a task to complete and knowing that he’s back could mean that he either completed it or that he failed, so he returned to give him the details.‘What’s going on?’ Zev wondered a

Zev was looking forward to how Layla would turn him into minced meat with her blade. A hundred stab was something he could not underestimate, especially when the person stabbing him was mad. And Layla happened to be one, she seemed to enjoy what she was doing since he gave her permission to do what she wanted. Zev only hoped that she would be satisfied. After all, the deal should be in his favor. Sacrificing his body which going to heal anytime soon anyway would be worth it all once he got her on his side for as long as he wanted her to be.“97!” He heard Layla counted as she buried her dagger which already turned crimson due to his blood. On the contrary, Lucian’s screamed stopped before Layla could stab her twenty times. With his injury, Zev wondered if he was still alive or had finally met his end. But a guard wolf was not easy to deal with, it was just that Lucian angered a Were.Zev was tempted to see her for a bit, but he fought the urge to do

The sweet fragrance of various flowers filled Layla’s nostrils as she relaxed in the lukewarm water. She opened her eyes slowly and Zev’s pretty face was the first thing she saw. They were so close to each other and the good thing was that he was sleeping. She squinted her eyes for a bit to make sure she wasn’t dreaming. She wasn’t satisfied until she felt the pain on her thigh when she pinched herself.There were no flowers around, only burning torches and dry clothes neatly placed on the table in the corner of the room, but the flowery scent was only getting stronger. It almost made her lose consciousness again. It was too fragrant that could make anyone feel dizzy after inhaling it in a short time.‘Where am I? Zev’s bathroom?’ She pondered as she checked the environment. Layla was surprised to find herself in a tub and that… she was bathing with the man. Her eyes narrowed as she moved away slowly from him, hoping he wouldn’t wake up. Or sh

Layla whimpered before fainting in Zev’s arms. He pulled away from her and looked at the mark he left. A satisfied smile appeared on his lips. ‘Now that you have my mark, I wonder how would the vampire lord react to this,’ Zev thought as he carried her out of the tub. He took a clean towel and wrapped her with it before leaving the bathroom without bothering wearing anything himself.“Oh,” he halted when he realized something. “Am I supposed to mark anyone other than my mate?” Zev asked himself. He pondered for a while and when the more he thought about it made his head ached, he shrugged the thought and went on to put Layla on the bed.“Have a good night, little thing,” he whispered after giving her a peck on her forehead. The light from the candles inside the room illuminated Layla’s face which made him hold his breath. Zev guided his hand to his chest when he felt something was beating fast inside. ‘What’s wrong with me?’ he thought as he locked

Pale face, trembling lips, and trying to avert his gaze while gasping, Zev knew Lucian was hiding something from him. And whatever that was, he’d make him spill it out. Zev took a deep breath and glanced at the guy’s chest. “Are you hiding something?” He grinned. “Of course you do. You’re breathing unevenly… you’re not lying to me, but you ain’t telling everything.”Lucian sucked in his breath before exhaling the air he just inhaled. “Your Majesty, I…” he stuttered, still contemplating whether to reveal his secret or not. “I… I have a twin brother,” Lucian continued.Zev frowned. ‘Twin brother?’ He shrugged. “Oh? What does it have to do with your investigation?” He had an idea, but he preferred to hear it from the guy. “Don’t make me ask you every time. I don’t have enough time to keep you company tonight. Just tell me what you know,” Zev lifted his crossed his legs, and waited for the guard wolf to talk.“Your Majesty, I have a twi
Midnight Feast Chapter 59
It was the familiar breathy sound that woke up Layla. Before she could open her eyes, she expected to see his master’s broad chest. She was sure satisfied looking at it in the morning after waking up. She let out a soft chuckle when proving her thoughts to be correct. Right, she woke up again with him by her side. Layla checked everything there seemed nothing ‘unusual’. She was wearing nothing but a towel draped around her and Zev was half-naked. It was rare for Layla to see the man wearing trousers in his sleep, but she was glad he did. Otherwise, she had to burn the image of his ‘pet’ in her mind again. The young lady lifted her head to see his face. He was sleeping soundly like an innocent kid, and if she didn’t know he was a demon in human-like form, she might have fallen for his deceptive look and that… his meaty flesh which seemed to be inviting.There shouldn’t be any problem for Layla to see anyone’s

Zev felt a sharp pain in his shoulder. He didn’t have to check what’s causing it. There was no doubt, it was the mark Layla gave her. Good thing, Layla was there to ease the pain. Just like his Alpha’s mark, the mark she left on him seemed to have the same purpose; to bind the alpha and his mate. It was a visible vow between the two fated Weres. A mark that could strengthen the bond between them. Zev had always wondered how could someone like Layla existed without other Were clans knowing. He should have remembered her around when he was still not cursed, yet he heard nothing about a female white Were, and she’s even a Werewolf just like him.He stared at her green eyes and spoke, “Aren’t you afraid to get burnt by the flame you lit? If you wish to continue, you have to be well-prepared.” Zev waited for the young lady’s reply, but he was disappointed. Layla gave him a cold look before turning her back on him. She was about to get off him when he tugged her on the ar
Midnight Feast Chapter 61
Layla tried her hardest to avoid the man after such an awkward situation they were in. She would either stay in the kitchen to roast boar’s meat for her meal or sharpened her daggers before training. Zev on the other hand also kept his distance which made her feel relieved as she didn’t know how to face him again if ever he asked her to talk to him. Even Lucian seemed more aloof towards her. Well, the guy had always been like that anyway, so Layla wasn’t really bothered.She spent a whole day in the jungle, hunting for a particular boar as part of her daily exercises to get stronger. She would eat her lunch under the tree and would take a nap in the afternoon after going back to her training. Layla was more comfortable doing whatever she wanted in the forest instead of staying in the mansion with her moody master. Little did she know, Zev was also there, watching her from afar.“Ah! Why can’t I find it?” She said while stomping her feet in frustrati
