EPISODE 271LILA'S POINT OF VIEW By late afternoon, Villion and I finally arrived back at his mansion. I honestly thought we would be staying there much longer, but the sky had gradually begun to darken. Thick clouds gathered overhead, as if rain could pour down at any moment. Because of that, we decided it would be better to return before the weather worsened.“Lila, stay here for a moment,” Villion said calmly as soon as we stepped inside. “I just need to check if Krill and Earl have already finished what I asked them to do earlier.”I turned to face him. “That’s fine. I’ll arrange these flowers first,” I said cheerfully.He gave an immediate nod, before turning away and leaving the bedchamber. The soft sound of his footsteps faded as he stepped outside, and soon after, the door closed gently behind him.Once the door was shut, I moved toward the living area. I gathered the flowers and began placing each stem carefully into the vase, taking my time as I arranged them.I replaced the

EPISODE 273The realization stole the breath from my lungs, relief washing over me in a rush. But almost instantly, that relief twisted into alarm.I slid the door open once more, and the first thing that greeted me was the rush of cold, violent wind that immediately wrapped around my body. It struck my skin sharply, carrying with it the scent of rain and the weight of an approaching storm. My hair fluttered uncontrollably.“Bruno… what are you doing here?” I asked in a serious tone.My eyes traveled over him, taking in every detail. His hair was slightly damp, strands clinging to his forehead as if he had been standing out in the rain for quite some time. Even the shoulders of his formal jacket were visibly wet, the dark fabric marked by uneven patches where raindrops had soaked through. He looked like someone who had come in a hurry.A tight knot formed in my chest.“You know you’re not allowed to come here without Villion’s permission,” I said, lowering my voice. “You know that ru

EPISODE 275I didn’t really want to be angry, especially not with him. I hated the way frustration tightened in my chest, the way my thoughts kept circling back to his stubbornness. But how could I not feel this way when he hadn’t listened to me at all?After I finished bathing, I returned to the tower immediately. As soon as I arrived, I found Krill and Earl already standing in front of my closed door.Their presence made my steps slow.“Lady Lila, Alpha Villion will be able to return home again later tonight,” Krill said respectfully.I smiled at both of them. “In that case, will the two of you be joining me for dinner again?” I asked.“That seems to be how it will be,” Earl replied. “The alpha will be coming home late.”I nodded in acknowledgment. "I’ll change first,” I said to them.They immediately stepped aside, giving me room to pass. One of them reached for the door and opened it for me, allowing me to enter my bedchamber. My smile vanished almost instantly, and I found mysel

EPISODE 277LILA'S POINT OF VIEW This was the very first time I had ever slept beside Villion.I was comfortable, there was no denying that but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t calm myself. My body felt stiff, as if I were afraid that even the smallest movement might break something fragile between us. I lay there on the bed, my back turned to him, trapped not by force but by the warmth of his arms wrapped securely around me.Feeling Villion’s body heat was indescribably comforting. It seeped into me slowly. Still, sleep refused to come.My thoughts were too loud, my senses too awake. I could feel the steady rise and fall of his chest behind me, hear his calm breathing, and it only made me more aware of my own. I knew I wouldn’t be falling asleep anytime soon.Before I even realized it, I began to hear the faint sounds of Vllion’s soft, almost unnoticeable snores reach my ears, accompanied by the deep rhythm of his breathing as it passed through his nose.He had fallen asleep s

EPISODE 279LILA'S POINT OF VIEW The moment Bruno finally left the tower, a deep breath escaped my chest. It felt as though the air around me suddenly became lighter. I leaned back slightly, letting the silence settle in, and allowed myself a brief moment of peacefulness.My eyes drifted toward the window, where the world outside stretched endlessly before me. I wanted to relax longer, to remain there and lose myself in the scenery but I heard some footsteps echoing behind me.Wade, Krill, and Earl arrived.“The Alpha is still asleep?” Earl asked formally.“Yes,” I answered gently. “But he was the first one to fall asleep last night.” I turned slightly to face them, studying their expressions. “Why? Do you need to wake him already?”“It’s nothing,” Krill answered calmly. “It’s just unusual." He let out a laugh. “The Alpha has never been late waking up... not even once.”“We came up here because we thought you might already be awake,” Wade said respectfully. “We were planning to prepar
