"Everett"She saw Everett grimacing at the man with his fiercer eyes. He looked grim. She got down from the bed hurriedly. She hugged him while crying."H-He tried to t-touch m-me." She sobbed as she tightly hugged him. She choked in a cry.The warmth of his body grabbed her, making her calm. She sobbed and clutched her grip on his shirt.She felt safe when she saw him. She felt relieved that the man who she fell for, came in time to save her."Y-You heard m-me, right? Y-You came to s-save me." She sobbed again. Her whole body was sweating in fear of what her mate was trying to do with her just now.Slowly moving back from him, she looked up at him."He tried to f-force me. He told me that he would take me away from you. I-I don't want to go with him."His eyes pierced into her eyes. They changed direction and went down to her body.Her ripped dress and visible cleavage made him angry. She could see him tightening his fists.He took off his shirt and wrapped it around her body. Then h

"P-Please, D-Don't c-come near m-me."Everett's frowning brows ceased a little. He gazed at her back for a moment. His lips parted to say something but nothing came out of his mouth.He turned around and left the room without saying anything.Delilah heard the sound of the closing door.She turned around and looked at the empty room. She slid down against the wall and pulled her knees close to her chest.She felt betrayed. All this time he was making fun of her. His friends also made fun of her. They made her life a joke.She trusted him and stayed with him. She tried her best to impress him. She thought he had become her family. She cared for him and thought the beast was someone else. She almost got a heart attack the night when Everett was not at home and she heard loud growls. That night she realized what she felt about him. She thought the beast would kill him, but what was she thinking? The beast was he himself.That face! Those eyes!Everything came to her mind again, she felt

"Are you okay? How are you feeling right now?"Delilah asked the patient named Jenica.She was taking deep breaths as she nodded her head. Delilah injected the tonic inside her body. She felt better. A few minutes ago, when Delilah came to check on her, Delilah saw Jenica was trying to take a breath but she was having problems breathing. Blood lumps were visible on her full body.Delilah remembered what she read a week ago in the report. She got some knowledge about this disease too. So she tried her best to handle the situation. To her surprise, when she ran to call Miss Winters she was busy with another patient and told her to handle the situation by herself.Delilah had to do something that her mind told her at that moment. Fortunately, she really did her homework as she memorized every potion.It was kind of shocking that she got a big brain. She did not have to think twice before using any potion.Jenica felt relieved when her body calmed down. "Thank you." She said to Delilah

Delilah opened the cabinet and took out one of the gowns she bought a few weeks ago from the village market.It was a purple colored simple long dress. She never wore colorful dresses after coming here. But since they were going to the Royal Palace, she should dress up well.She went downstairs and saw Everett talking with the old man."I believe she will be fine." Everett said. He glanced at the staircase and looked at her.Delilah looked away from him and strolled towards him."I am ready, let's go." Delilah said and stood beside Everett."Please."The old man said and signaled them with his right hand to the carriage outside.Delilah got up to the carriage. Everett also got up and sat opposite her.The carriage looked bigger from the outside, but inside, it was a small space. They were sitting very close to each other. Everett's knees slightly brushed her knees when the carriage started to move forward.Delilah ignored the touch and looked outside from the window.The fresh wind

"Have you ever seen his wolf?"Delilah parted her lips but then zipped them immediately. She looked away from her.Everett's grandmother looked at Delilah with a pair of doubtful eyes. "Is your silence telling the answer? Is it yes?"Delilah lowered her head and nodded slightly.She heard a gasp. She looked at Everett's grandmother and saw her wide eyes."H-He l-let you see his w-wolf?" Grandmother stuttered, kind of asking lowly as if someone would listen to her.Delilah stared at grandmother and thought about how to answer her. Should she tell her the truth?She shook her head when her mind reminded her of Everett's angry look. He would not like that for sure."There was a situation when I saw his wolf." Delilah replied to her.Grandmother's eyes became teary, her face turned bright."Come here, my child. Come to grandma."Delilah slowly went to sat beside her.Grandma patted her head and said,"You don't know how big the matter is."Delilah was confused. "What do you mean, grandma?
