《TAMING THE BEAST: HER LITTLE PET》全部章節：第 11 章 - 第 20 章

“You want to know about the dungeon layout and how it was built?” One of the wardens whose name was Dale asked. “I…” Elaina found herself stammering on her words, not sure if she should answer correctly or lie. She could feel her heart rate increasing at every passing second and she thought of what would happen if they became suspicious of her. “Miss Elaina, you…” Timothy paused and bent to look her in the eyes, then he continued, “... might just be an angel because your request literally warmed my heart. No one has ever asked me about this, not even my darn wife. It was like our hard work would never truly be acknowledged with the higher ups taking all the glory” he looked genuinely pleased and so were the other wardens as well because they were nodding in agreement. Elaina mentally sighed in relief and immediately grew a thick skin to reply to them, “Well of course, when I heard the king praising the group heads, I knew that the ones who truly did the work were the workers. You

“Hey dragon, I have to admit, your acting was pretty good. I am impressed“ Elaina teased as soon as she returned to the cell where Drake was in. “Is he gone?” Drake asked, eyeing her.“Yes, he's gone with a promise that he won't show up without informing me about it first. So our plan was a success” she answered with a bright, fulfilled smile on her lips.Drake sighed and rested his back on the wall, “I am glad that's over” he muttered as he tried hard to mask the small smile forming at the corner of his lips.Elaina sat tiredly on the ground beside him and said, “Who knew talking to that man would tire me out like this, I was itching to punch his stupid face throughout. Now all our plans going forward will work smoothly without the fear of him showing up randomly and finding out about our scheme” With one thing off her chest, she felt relieved and couldn't help but go over how it all began:Elaina had arrived at the dungeon very early that morning after coming up with a brilliant i

Xavier was all smiles on his way back to his home. The feeling that he was getting close to success made him feel great and optimistic. Even though Elaina rejected his grand offer, he mentally noted that he would hold his offer till she was in need of his help. Now he could rest easy and wait for good news to arrive soon. With the pace it was going, he predicted that he would get the dragon's essence within a month or two depending on how responsive the dragon would be. He got to his gate and saw three men with the royal uniform, the King's guards, waiting for him at the door. “Lord Xavier, we bring greetings from the king” One of the guards said with a slight bow.Xavier's heart skipped a beat and he began to feel a little anxious. Last time was a letter and now the guards, it could only mean one thing.Being the head magician in power, he was a master at acting composed at all times even when he was distressed so his panic was well hidden, he replied as calm as possible, “Greetin

Elaina exhaled as she stood before the majestic palace. It was already nightfall but the light surrounding the building brightened up the place like it was daytime. For years she had only seen the outside of this building, commoners were not allowed to go in without an invite. But now, she was being welcomed in for dinner… how time flies.“You are miss Elaina?” a maid walked up and asked. “Yes I am,” she said with a nod.“Welcome to the palace. Please follow me” the maid turned and began walking inside while Elaina followed closely behind. She couldn't help but admire the magnificence of the place and think about how much money was spent on decorations. The flowers were neatly pruned and there was not a single spec of dirt on the statues. Guards and maids moved around objectively with their duties in mind. The inside was even more beautiful than the outside, with red carpet floors and bright colorful lights. It took a lot for Elaina's mouth to not drop open in awe. She walked for a

He watched her walk to the door and then he called out her name impulsively, “Elaina…” She turned to look at him with a forlorn look on her face, for the first time she felt running into his arms for a hug but she held herself back. Drake stammered on his words, unsure on how to say it without making it look like he cared because he didn't. “I think you should stay away from the king, reduce contact with him and just focus more on helping me escape. That's what important” He ended up saying that instead and for some reason he felt bad immediately it came out of his mouth.Elaina's eyes lingered for only a second before she turned and continued walking away without a reply. She couldn't help but feel a little disappointed that even at that moment, the dragon still only cared about himself. She began her walk home deep in thought. A cord memory popped up in her head and she had a trip down memory lane.It was a rainy day and everyone was home covered up in thick garments. Thirteen y
