TYLA'S POV The silence after my threat lingered like a mist in the air. The boy’s hand hovered mid-air, the plate of food slightly tilted as he contemplated whether to follow through with his tantrum or not.

I didn’t move and I wanted him to know that I wasn’t going to be just another servant tiptoeing around his moods.“What’s your name?” he asked finally, his tone curt.“Tyla.” I said simply.“You’re not scared of me.”“Should I be?”He smirked, but there was no amusement in it…just a guarded expression, like someone who’d been taught too early not to trust
