"I don't think he knows yet." Ralph turned around sharply when he heard Rieka speak behind. "What?" He furrowed his brows in confusion. "I was thinking this over the night. The alpha doesn't know yet. He doesn't know Amelia is Lupe." She explained further, staring up at him. Ralph stared around cautiously before he grabbed her wrist, pulling her to a secluded area. "What do you mean? And how did you know this?" "It's obvious Ralph, if he already found out she's Lupe he wouldn't act the way he's behaving to her. And you know? Treat her that way. Also distancing himself from her." She explained, whisper yelling. "Besides, we all know how he treated Lupe. He was always close to her, like she was the very oxygen he breathes. If he already found out she's Lupe, he would have changed." "But what about that time he caught us in the library." Ralph pointed out, staring at her unsurely. "He must've known." "Maybe, maybe not." Rieka waved her hands dismissively. "But just think about. If

"How dare you try to poison me?" Amelia gasped holding his hands as all air cut out of her lungs. "Stop." She whimpered with eyes widened in fear and terror. Sebastian released her and held her shoulders slamming her hard against the wall. "No!" Rieka screamed, her eyes widened in pure fright. "No." She whimpered and hurriedly turned around the ballroom searching for Ralph. Oh shit! He wasn't in the room. She stared around the room one last time and rushed out in search for Ralph. He was the only one that can help now. The entire hall gasped when he slammed against the wall again, this time harder than the first. The crowds let out another gasp as he raised his hands in the air, his fangs stretching out, ready to strike her. But in the blink of an eye he was pushed away from her with a great force, landing on the other side of the room. Amelia let out repeated short breaths, dropping to the ground as she stared at the phoenix king standing a few meters from the alpha king. "Stay o

It was quite blurry, but the clanging noises of the door opening made her know that someone was coming in. Then she heard footsteps approaching. "Hey." She felt a cold hand touch her bare shoulders, followed by the scent of food. Then her stomach growled, reminding her of how badly hungry she was. "Food?" She muttered, slowly sitting up. She cringed as her own skin irritated her. She has not had her bath since the incident yesterday and she could tell, it was almost getting to evening. "Yes," Rieka sat beside her, crossing her legs. She felt pity for the human, but she doesn't know what to think or do. She knew Amelia didn't poison the drink but what can she do? Talk to Alpha king? No, not yet. He might just get angry and murder her. He has been in his room since the incident yesterday and she's sure he's in a very bad mood now. She uncovered the plate of mashed potatoes, pushing it to her. "I don't have to ask, you must be very hungry." Amelia groaned, leaning against the wall, h

"You're never gonna find her." The trio turned around when they heard her voice. She repeated, smearing her lips as she walked closer to them. "What do you mean?" Sebastian asked in a deep tone, staring suspiciously at her. She raised her hands in the air, chuckling lightly. "Whoa whoa! Don't look at me that way. I don't know anything." She folded her arms under her breasts and stared at him with a serious look before adding. "You're never going to find her." "Rieka." Sebastian called, raising his brows at her. "What do you know?" "Well, I know previously, I said I don't know anything but.... Let's just say, I know little. Just very little." Her lips formed into a lopsided grin as she wiggled her brows before adding. "Well I'm not gonna tell you." "Rieka." Sebastian called warningly. "Nope." She declined plainly, shaking her head negatively. "To my chambers." He ordered, glaring hard at her. "And what's gonna happen in your chambers." She asked d

"I'm not interested in helping you. That's the door over there. Leave." Rieka jaws dropped at his refusal. She blinked her eyes repeatedly on shock. "Miguel," "Leave." He scrunched his nose at themand raised the drink in his hands to his mouth, taking a large gulp. "Miguel, you don't know how important this is. Please!" Rieka pleaded, hoping he would change his mind. Geez, she did not come the human world for nothing. She did not wear this uncomfortable gown for nothing. He has to help them. She won't be able to see Amelia again if he doesn't. Damnit! Man should stop being hard on them. "Miguel please." She pleaded again. The look on his face was quite unconvincing, "You really want me to help him?" Rieka's brows raised in confusion immediately at his question. She glance at Sebastian before taking her gaze back to Miguel. "What do you mean?" She asked. "You come to my house for help, and you sit like you own that couch huh?" He stared disdainfully at Sebastian. Rieka couldn'
