Wicked lover Chapter 11 Dazed
Tired and weakened, Selene hardly notice she’d lost consciousness again. The pull of sleep was too much for her to bear, only waking when she noticed the itch in her throat.Somehow recovered, she now had the strength to open her eyes. A frown immediately appeared on her face upon gazing at where she was in.Dust floating everywhere, sticking to the walls, floors, and ceiling. A single small window gave the room light, making the entire place dim.She hugged herself when the coldness prickled her skin, steam coming out of her with each breath. Her hands instinctively brushed the side of her bed, searching for a blanket or something to cover herself, realizing her nakedness.Unable to find anything, she sat up to get a better look around, groaning from the jolt of pain piercing through her joints.“Hello? Is anybody there?”Her voice echoed through the empty room, yet it did not seem to leave the place she was in.She frowned at the wooden door at the far end of it, having a small slid
Wicked lover Chapter 12 A possible prospect
Duncan Vondeer’s face wrinkled from the deepness of his frown. His eyes, half open, not wanting to fully see the person walking around in front of him.He and a few others gathered in the study, discussing the reason for his current decision. He wasn’t supposed to be there, if it not for George, his father’s beta and second in command forcing him.It left him with no choice but to groan and grumble at his dissatisfaction and annoyance. His ears were ringing from the squeaky high-pitched voice, bantering nonstop for half an hour already.“A debt? That’s the best you can come up with?”Valentine Sage’s face looked like it was about to explode. Its color had turned beet red from all the huffing and puffing she’d been doing.Unable to endure the continues nagging. Duncan finally let out a growl, hand wiping his face to keep what little patience he had.“Can we not talk about this?”His voice was firm, gritting his teeth after slamming his fist on the chair’s arm, almost breaking the thin
Wicked lover Chapter 13 Introductions
After years of being passed around, disregarded, and shunned. For the first time, Selene could genuinely smile with glee.The sensation of being needed and relied upon brought about an insurmountable energy and reason for her. Especially since it was her aunt Penelope who was in need. It was now her chance to return the favor for the new life she had given her.She does a quick turn in front of the mirror, making sure she’d properly put on the uniform provided to her by an attendant there.It was a black and white maid outfit, complete with an apron and the headdress.Though shorter than the supposed design, since she’s certain it should reach up to his ankle, not her knee. Even if it wasn’t the style, she thought, she remained giddy, wearing such frilly kind of clothing.The way it flaps in the air when she moves and its softness on her skin was something she’d never experienced before.Footsteps coming from the stairs caused her to straighten, immediately turning to face the entrywa
Wicked lover Chapter 14 Hidden Agenda
Duncan couldn’t remove the grin on his face, having achieved something none had ever tried before. It was a long shot, but somehow, the discovery elated him.He looks out the window from his father’s study, closely watching Selene watering the flowers on the other side of the maze garden.The girl was alone, yet she had this smile on, all the while vigilantly doing her task of tending the plants there.“You actually did it!”It was Ben, his beta, jumping in cheer after hearing what he had done.He gathered his two most trusted aid to tell them about the situation, since they remained wary of their ward. The woman wasn’t just another hapless victim; she was the niece of Penelope Hallow. The so-called moonlight wench.Also, her sudden recovery after getting attack puzzled many of them. As he too was certain she had died when they brought her to the infirmary.“Was that necessary, young alpha?”Julieta bit her lip, hands clasp together in worry.She was aware they were dealing with someo
Wicked lover Chapter 15 A honest mistake
The confused, brooding, and gentle gaze hidden beneath a hardened exterior of Duncan continued to plague Selene’s mind. This was the image that got stuck in her. After having seen the man’s eyes in such clarity, she could discern the shadows cast upon by his broody composure.At first she thought it was just him being young, but the moment their gaze met, everything became clear to her.Sadness, pain, and longing. All of those things were familiar to her. So it was easy to spot the same in the guy’s eyes.She can’t help but be empathetic towards the guy. Though the fact remains he is better off than her, she now had this sense of connection with him.Also, there’s the part she cannot remove the man from her head, his face popping up in her mind once in a while, along with the distraught and giddiness in her insides.It’s been days since that incident, and yet the memory of it continued to linger like it was yesterday.She tussled and turn on her bed, frantic with those unknown emotion
Wicked lover Chapter 16 Connections and reasons
Duncan couldn’t hide his rage, his wrinkled in such a fashion, his teeth showed. Blood boiling from having no way to release all his pent-up emotions, it left him with nothing to do but freak out.His only place of solace was now being used by the person who’m he despises. Not only that, he hated the fact he got affected by what he saw.His crotch continued to throb and would not calm down, having that weight and twisting in his privates only added to his frustration.That’s why he didn’t hesitate to summon his two subordinate, wanting to find some sort of way to let out his irritation.“Of all the places, you had to put her there.”He bellows, causing the beta to flinch and lower his heads. While the maid remained bowing the moment she got there.“I’m sorry, young alpha. It was the only area where there was a working lavatory.”Julieta stayed stoic, unaffected by his master’s bantering. Not bothered by the intense murderous gaze being thrown their way.“Have you even considered the c
Wicked lover Chapter 17 Another transfer
Selene took one last look at the cell she’d been staying in, making sure she had everything back to its original state.From removing the covers, she placed over the pile of logs, curtains, and make-shift vases. She removed all of it, including the pieces of flowers. Though she had cleaned up most of the place, she’s positive it wouldn’t be an issue, considering she didn’t touch the other rooms since they remained locked.With nothing else to do, she hastens upstairs, carrying the remaining stuff she had brought there. The head maid greeted her the moment she emerged from the depths of the lower floors.“Are you certain that’s the last of it?”Julieta raised a brow, seeing the lump of tattered fabric sewn together.“Yes, mistress. I’ve done everything you’ve told me to do.”Selene gave a curtsy, copying the other maids’ action whenever they answered the woman. She was becoming accustomed to it after observing quietly for the past few days.“And those are the remaining curtains, corre
Wicked lover Chapter 18 Cognizance
Selene couldn’t keep her eyes straight while walking through the halls of their campus. Her entire situation only became much worse. Instead of only getting ignored and given condescending glances, she now received murderous gazes and whispers from the students passing by.If it weren’t for Lucas’s group hovering by her side, she wouldn’t have had the strength to walk into that place at all.She didn’t really have any plans of going back to school after finding about her aunt’s debt, since she did not think they’d allow her. But when she told the head maid about it, the woman had no problems with it whatsoever.Now, once again mingling with the masses, it gave her the chance to ponder and consider things. What was the reason she got into that situation in the first place? From what she can recall, she was supposed to go home after work and then parts of her memory became blurry, and then she turns up in that room, naked and all. Then came the sudden revelation of her aunt’s obliga
