로그인Joyce's life is drastically changed when she is attacked by hellhounds from a rival werewolf clan who killed her mother years ago and are now set on killing her as well.

A cruel, cold, and powerful billionaire werewolf, feared by many and trusted by none, Luke claims her on the very day of her arrival and she is confined within the walls of the Elderman castle and forbidden to leave until her father returns with the cavalry, until her host no longer finds use for her, or until her enemies finally succeed in ending her life.

I had only listened to Irene talk about how the place was another world on its own, where one could walk and walk and walk, search and search, and find so many things in varying abundance. Luke still wasn't back yet, so I asked Marlowe if Suah could accompany me to the market. She wasn't my first choice though. Nael was, but as it turned out, he received a message from Luke shortly after I spent the night in Irene's house, and Luke asked him to join him in the human world. I didn't appreciate the secrecy especially with all that I had recently learnt about my family from Philip. Luke was keeping secrets about me from me, and it was honestly killing me that I knew little to nothing about myself. I needed an explanation. Someone to sit me down and tell me everything about my family. About my parents, how they met, what really happened between them. I needed Luke. He owed me a million explanations, and one
“ What?” “ What?” “ Sorry, it's just that You've been quiet since I said the word hybrid,” Philip said, turning to face me. We were in Irene's kitchen, and I had a sponge in my hand and there were dishes in the sink, but I wasn't washing. Ever since he said he was a hybrid, I had been staring at his back, as it could answer all the million questions I had. I asked Irene to let me do the dishes while she fixed the room that I was to sleep in. I lied that I missed doing the dishes, which was a terrible lie I'm sure they all caught. “ No, it's just…I just,” I stuttered, not quite finding the words I could use to qualify my confusion. “ I'm just a little confused, that's all.” Philip nodded his head, like he understood all too well. “ I'm guessing Irene didn't tell you?” He said. “ I'm guessing Luke told her not to tell. But if he did, then why would he agree to make me stay here? I haven't been outside the castle walls except for that time when I got kidnapped.” “ I don't know,
That sounds like a dumb plan.” “ It is not.” Irene and I decided to take a walk to her house, which she said was like a cottage that wasn't too far, where she lived with her husband and her two sons. She had met her husband while she accompanied Luke to one of his estates. “ I remember it clearly,” she narrated. “ Master Luke said he knew no one who would handle the affairs of the place with delicacy than I. So he took me in his car, and we drove for hours till we got to the mansion.I must admit, I thought he was very handsome then. I still think he's quite handsome, but the feelings have been erased completely since I met my husband.” “ Oh My God!” I said laughing. “ You used to like Luke?” I asked. I wasn't exactly shocked at Irene's confession because from the very beginning, I saw that what Irene had for Luke was more than admiration and respect, but I never thought it was unrequited love. It was also a bit weird to hear her say she used to like Luke. I knew that Luke was
“Apply this once every day to the wound, and it will be as smooth as a newborn,” the healer attending to Luke said.When the bald man saw me, he cleared his throat, congratulated Luke, and then left the room.Luke had put on a shirt and splashed some water on his face, so he looked normal again.(Silence)“I see your hand is intact?” I said.“Dan is very good at his job,” he said.“So it's fine now? How is it even possible to sew a hand back? It was cut to the bone.”“That's just how it works here,” he said.I wanted to hug him and give him a playful pat on the back for scaring me, but I was also too angry at him.“Why did you do it?” I finally said.“I did it to protect you. To protect this family,” he said.“Right, by letting a psychotic killer loose? That's how you protect this family?”“There are worse things in the world than Desmond Burton living another day.”“No, you don't get to say that. You're not the one who can barely sleep at night whenever there's a little sound somewhe
