“It's surprising to know how you will almost kill that woman, Ashianna," King Edward said.Marcus didn't permit me to leave the room because I needed to take a rest. It was the doctor who suggested it before he informed King Edward about what happened. I began to hyperventilate because of anxiety when he encircled his hands around my waist. He gently pinched my skin, making me wince in pain. I swallowed when I felt his calloused palm touching my bare back.“A woman who doesn't have a wolf can almost kill a trained assassin lady. You're making me flabbergasted, Ashianna. You make me more curious about your identity," he added.I didn't know if he was being sarcastic toward me or not. He pursed his lips before he pulled my hair, which caused my mouth to part in pain. He stared at my eyes, trying to invade my soul, before I watched him lick his delectable lips. I swallowed hard, and it seemed there was a hard thing in my throat.I couldn't understand why he seemed more elegant and savor

I was stunned by what Marcus had said about me. I couldn't understand why he became sarcastic when he mentioned that I was the woman who changed the King's decision. I decided not to think about it, trying to think that he was only amazed. What made me more questionable was how he gave Harvey a look while Harvey was walking towards me. It seemed he didn't like Harvey too much, like they were enemies who were about to crush once they got closer. I hoped I was wrong, especially when Harvey glared at Marcus before he walked closer to me. "I heard you request the Lycan King that you want me to be your personal guard." Harvey didn't greet me but started to talk to me using his harsh tone. I nodded while he took my things like a gentleman. He scoffed, trying to make me see he didn't like the idea of being with me every day, but I noticed a strange emotion he was trying to hide. "I'm one of the highest rank here, yet you're treating me like you're higher than me. Woman, you're only the mis

My anger at Sarah was like a fire burning the woods.The more wood she put in, the more I became angry towards her. I wanted to burn her and torment her for always being mean to me. I couldn't understand why I was the one she always tried to turn down. Sarah was a trigger for me, and there might be a possibility Alice might take control of my body without my notice. 'Bitch, how dare she!' Alice continued snarling, negotiating with me to let her control my body because she wanted Sarah to teach her a lesson. She was stronger than I was, but I was thankful she was asking for my permission first before she did something nasty with Sarah. 'Calm down, Alice. It's better if you relax yourself. Sarah is trying to---' 'She will regret provoking me. Why don't you put some laxatives in her drink? Come on, Ashianna. Do you want to lose this battle?' 'Alice, I'm not trying to compete with anyone. What I want is to get my revenge on Alpha James!' 'Liar. We are one body. I can smell your jeal

”Strip your dress. I want to see you naked.” he commanded. He grabbed the papers he had been reading before his eyes landed on mine. I didn't have a choice but to do what he wanted or else, he might be triggered and start throwing his tantrums at me.He tapped his table like he was informing me he was waiting for me to obey patiently. I swallowed hard as my hands trembled in nervousness while I was undressing my dress. His pierced eyes turned cold and darkened when I was naked in front of him.“Good girl, Ashianna.” His voice became hoarse like he was in pain. He gulped when he examined my body slowly. He pursed his lips while he was caressing his lips, acting like he was thinking how prepared I was for him.“You aren't weak but wise, little wolf. You know how I want you badly that's why you ensure you will be more gorgeous in my eyes.” He said like he was telling me a matter of fact.I didn't deny his allegation because that was what I had done. After all, I feared he might punish me

Whoever Lady Maureen was, she made me panic because of what Marcus had said to me. I never thought there was anything worse than Sarah. However, I didn't want to judge someone as long as I didn't see her because I only heard one comment about her.I wasn't the type who would easily believe me as long as I didn't see the reason why I should avoid that person. If Lady Maureen was on her way in the pack, she might be here today.I didn't know why she was out of the pack, and it was Sarah who had been acting like a queen when King Edward brought me into his pack. I needed to investigate the facts because I had a feeling there might be a war between them. I didn't like to be their middle lady because I wasn't desperate to be the Lycan Queen.“Sarah is pathetic. She's losing her credibility if she does not stop attacking Ashianna.”I halted munching my food when I heard the concubines mention me. I acted like I was focusing on eating, but I couldn't stop eavesdropping on their conversation.
