It was that moment when Layla thought she was in a dire situation. She was always prepared to do whatever Zev would ask her but not to the extent of killing someone. It wasn’t because she was hesitating, not at all. She had killed wolves and even foxes before to survive, Layla sure would kill anyone who tried to get on her way. And it's all because of Zev’s given task. Her concern was, how could she kill a person who was obviously stronger than her?“What’s with that face? Aren’t you willing to do it?” Layla sighed at what Zev said. She faced him with a blank face as she thought of a way to finish the bloody guy who was laying down on the ground just a few meters away. Layla turned in Zev’s direction who was already sitting on the log prepared by his loyal dog.“No, Master. It’s not about being willing or not. I have no choice but to do it to curry favor from you. But I don’t know how to do it, Master,” Layla admitted. She smirked when she saw her d

*THUMP!*Zev wasted no second and threw Layla on the bed after muttering someone else’s name in her sleep. He knew he should have had nothing against it but the mere thought of the lady thinking about another man while he was cleaning after her mess agitated him to the maximum level.‘Victor?’ The name was familiar, and he thought he heard it from someone somewhere although he couldn’t completely recall.He stared at Layla who was still wearing her soaked shirt. Her short legs and thigh were exposed, and it was a good thing she was wearing underwear. Zev would love to know what happened to her why she ended up half-naked yet the lady was in deep sleep that she couldn’t ask her. “Why do I have to take care of you when you’re supposed to serve me instead?” He sighed when Layla didn’t wake up to give him an answer but snored loudly instead.“Right. How do you take care of someone with a fever?” Zev mumbled. He never ca

The sound of the wooden heels of boots knocking on the concrete floor resounded through the walls. Lucian was quietly treading the way to the master’s bedroom where he assumed where Layla was. He didn’t know why his majesty would take in such a woman despite knowing nothing about her at all. The guard wolf pondered how he could get rid of the lady in case she would try to harm his king. Zev Wesley was Lucian’s only hope to prevent the blood clan’s ultimate plan; to rule over the kingdom and later, the continent. The Weres believed that if there would be someone ruling the world, it should be from their race as they were no doubt superior when it comes to power. And Zev was always been the best candidate.Lucian stopped in front of the door as he sucked in his breath. He intended to persuade the Alpha to lead the remaining Weres from different clans, he shouldn’t be bothered by anything else and Layla was one of those ‘extras’ he shouldn’t be minding. He pushed the d

The following days became tolerable for Layla with the new kid joining her in the cell. She had him whenever she needed to talk which she loved doing the most. The boy’s presence reminded her of the days when there were more kids with her, sharing the cold and hard ground where they stuck with each other.“Layla, where did you come from?” the boy asked her once, and she had no idea what to answer. She knew nothing about herself at all except that she recalled being called ‘Layla’ by someone she couldn’t remember. “How did you end up in this place?”Those questions made her yearn for knowledge in order to give the boy a response. But fate had already decided for her and the thought of going against it was too much for a girl who was ignorant of how the world works its wonders.“Forget it. If you can’t remember anything then don’t mind my questions,” he told her while patting her head. Layla loved it when he was petting her. She felt

Zev rubbed his forehead while looking at the sleeping lady who seemed to take her time on the bed despite getting strangled earlier. He was amused at how she could stay asleep after what he had done to her.‘Terrific,’ Zev thought, praising the lady’s stupidity. ‘She would have been killed in her sleep and she had no idea about it,’ he added as he gave her a scrutinizing look. After contemplating to whether sleep by her side like the previous night and maybe spend the entire night planning on how to punish her once she woke up or find another room to sleep. He didn’t even need to sleep at all but he had nothing to do yet. He wasn’t in the mood to deal with his ‘guests’ as well. What Zev wanted to do was to see the little lady who was still recovering from fever suffer from his unreasonable tasks.“Little Layla, when will you wake up?” He asked her as he sat on the bed next to her. The white-haired brushed a few strands of hair from Layla’s face
