“You will be alright, Miss. Just calm yourself down and never let Master Phillius think you’re scared.” I embraced little Anna, enclosing her inside my skinny arms. “Thank you for everything. I will never have the courage to do this if it isn’t for your help.”Hazel looked at my hair, checking it meticulously after I pulled myself from Anna and turned to look at her with a nervous smile. “I hope I can pull this acting game with Phillius.” I didn’t notice my lips were already trembling, already scared after remembering how Phillius treated me yesterday.  “Exhale, Miss. You will never see Master Xeno if you’re too scared to face Master Phillius. You just have to pretend you’re ready to submit to him… and then you can finally sneak to check Master Xeno. You know his room, right?” Hazel advised while checking the hem of my dress. “We already told Master Phillius that you’re ok with accompanying him today. He’s going to meet the Alpha of Rowell

“Oh, god… Please don’t. Sir Phillius will kill me!” Darius’s confident and playful look on his face had shortly gone ecstatic after I whispered to him to follow me to the lobby, which I know gave him a disgusting meaning about it. Felly, his mother was so busy looking at the expensive drinks in Phillius’s cupboard so I took the chance to lure Darius somewhere, to talk to him about the things he said about Phillius being interested in my mana. I pulled him by the shell of his necktie before I threw him inside the bathroom cubicle. When we left Phillius’s office, I decided I had to talk to him by force. I know he won’t tell me if I’ll just ask him straightforwardly about it. I could see the terror in his eyes when my hand manifested a purple light in front of his face, threatening

By the time I got rid of the seat belt, the car had lifted from the air, making me scream in fear and before we get crushed while being inside, I quickly drew a barrier around me and Xeno, a strong force field that would protect us both from Phillius’s mighty jaw in his wolf form. Xeno made an attempt to get out of the destroyed car but the door wouldn’t open, it seemed like it was stuck. Out of Phillius’s madness, he threw the car into the sea with us still inside it, and the water splashed against the barrier I made. I look at Xeno in despair because I still have no idea how we are going to escape this. “Take the barrier down, Sapphire!” he commanded me. I looked at him, terrified, and just bit my lower lip. We both took a deep breath before I

"Hazel…" my eyes widened. "W-Why are you here?!""I'll help you get out, Miss. Just stay still"Her hand fumbled as she pulled my feet, looking for the chains. She took something behind her. A tool that looks like a scissor but I cannot tell what's the precise name of it. Then I realized she was going to cut the chains.My terror in my eyes, I pushed Hazel gently, away from me. She cannot be here! She'll be killed if someone finds her taking me out of my prison cell!"Go away, Hazel! Don't do this!" "We can't take Master Phillius's tyranny, Miss Sapphire. You don't deserve this! We'll save you and we'll get out of this place! There is a much safer place where he cannot enter!" "What do you mean?!" I hissed at her. "He'll kill you if someone finds you here, Hazel, please I'm begging you! I'll find a way on my own. I don't want you to get hurt because of me!""I know. But this is the on

I find myself sitting beside Phillius in front of every person of the Clarkson Clan and some of their Allied Clans including the family of the Alpha that visit his office, the night Xeno and I attempt to escape. Looking at the floor, I still don’t believe it when Phillius said he ordered his men to execute Xeno and Hazel by burning them alive. But he let me confirm it myself when we both went to the wide space of their garden and saw two bodies charred to crisp, still tied on the stake. The black smoke billowed above the sky and the smell of burned flesh rancid on the nose, making my stomach tighten in grief. I couldn’t help but retch as I saw the corpses in front of me.  I still think Phillius wasn’t telling the truth until I saw the corpse’s eye that was not burnt too much by the fire. The pupils of those eyes are yellow gold and I never saw any person besides him who has gold eyes like Xeno…After that horrible sight, I completely lost hope and went b
