"Here's your dress for this evening."I stare at the piece of revealing fabric that the maid had given me. I gave her a sharp look and raised my brow."He's going to make me wear this?" I grab the fabric with my hands. It was a lousy, transparent dress that would display a woman's glory after wearing. "He must be out of his mind if he thinks I'll be accepting this offer.""Please, Lady Vermillion," the maid begged. "He will have us killed if you do not obey him."I grit my teeth.It's not like I care about them anyway, but...I took the fabric and stormed into Filip's chamber. The male was taking a bath, his body fully exposed. He smirked upon seeing me."Oh my, my," he teased and then licked his lips. "I did not know you were into this, Vermillion~""Shut up, pervert," I glared and then threw the skimpy dress to the ground. "You must be joking me, right?""Where's the joke in that?" he replied while rinsing his body with water. "I had that intentionally made for you.""You're nuts," I
Filip's guards grabbed me from my den and pulled me outside. I reach out to the walls and grasp them so that I may never be taken away."Stop resisting!" they yelled at me. "You have to follow Lord Filip's orders!""Like hell, I would! Your master's a lunatic!"One of the guards removed my hands from the wall, causing me to slip away and get dragged by them. I hit them repeatedly with my limbs, but due to their tight grip and robust bodies, I was not able to skitter away."Let go of me, you weirdos!"Their grips tightened on my knees."Save your energy for Lord Filip," he said. "He will be upset with us if you continue to misbehave as you did yesterday. One of our comrades had lost his life because of you.""Now that's my fault for being kidnapped? Stop being unreasonable. Your guard tried to help him, and Filip smashed his head with that spear. If there's anyone to blame, it would be him.""You turned his body just in time when the spear impaled. Master was not happy about that.""It
I was thrown into a den.I fell flat on my spine when I fell onto the rough surface of the ground. I wonder how many broken bones I have now, because of this. Not to mention, my left arm is completely destroyed by that Creep, Mally.I wonder what Mally is, though. He's like an overgrown mass of something alive. He does not even look human to me, nor a Were.I took a deep breath and laid flat on the ground while recollecting my senses. I need space and time to be alone for a while.I miss my cape. I must've let go of it when these bastards abducted it. I hope that piece of fabric is well.I palmed my face and took my time in the silence.Everything around me was pitch black.They had covered the lid to the den, and I could not even see a thing. I could hear water dripping from the ceiling, but nothing more.I had injured that weirdo Filip earlier. Though his name may sound noble, that man is a prick and a pain in the ass. I can't believe that I'm stuck here with him. If only this blowd
They were shifting me into another place.The cave was dark and gloomy. A few stones emitted that faint purple and reddish light along with forces fastened on the wall.The lunatic's servants yanked me like a damn ragdoll. I yanked the chains back, causing them to fall on their buttocks. I let out an entertained laugh and rolled my tongue."Now, how does it feel to be pulled?"The rogues who were wearing those eyesore yellow clothes bared their fangs at me."Hurry up!" Filip commanded them with a stern tone. "Get your arses and pull! Don't tell me you're gonna let yourselves get dragged by a little missy?!"The servants rolled their eyes at him and stood up, ready to drag me along again. This time, I calmed myself down and followed them. After all, I've had my entertainment for today.Seeing Filip's brazen look as I made it clear to him about my profession made me feel so giddy. That pale look on his face will never cease away from my head.He better get his ass straight, or I'll kick
"Perfect candidate for what?" I snickered. "For your nightly duties? Come now. You know that I won't stoop that low to kiss your feet. You're no Alpha.""So you would stoop low and kiss someone's feet if they're an Alpha?""Still no."Filip walked in circles around me, "I've heard that Riftan is fond of you.""Yeah, right." I lazily replied and rolled my eyes. "He is so fond of me that kidnapping me will get you killed.""I am not afraid of him," he murmured. "Truthfully, he must be the one afraid of me.""Hah!" I scoffed. "Riftan? Scared of you? That guy is not even scared of me.""Why would anyone be scared of a little girl like you?" Filip raised a brow and crossed his arms.Offended, I turned to him and cursed. "I am not a little girl, psycho."The male twirled a ring on his fingers. "I've heard about you.""Really? But have you heard what I can do?""Of course I did. Why would I? I have been looking for you this entire time. I was wondering whose pack got you. Turns out you were
RUBY VERMILLIONPain was the first thing that greeted me when I woke up.I slowly opened my eyes, but was not greeted by light. Instead, I was in pitch-black darkness. I did not know if I was still alive or if this was truly the view behind death.My grandfather told me once, that there would always be light after death. That this bright light would reach out to you and guide you to wherever you may go.And of course.I will be going to hell for my sins.Maybe this is the reason why everything is dark around me.Because I'm already at hell.There was scraping in the ground. Metal screeching against cement, making its way towards me. I focused my eyes on the darkness when suddenly- feral, amber eyes glowed from the distance.I gulped.I tried to release myself, only to realize that my arm was injured. My wrists were tied to something I couldn't see.Damn it. Just where the hell am I?The lights then turned on. I quickly shut my lids and then opened them once again to adjust to the ligh
