Lila's POV This was my first time taking a walk around the palace. The Palace was very large, expanding over hectares of land. There were lots of places to visit, the archery ground, the weaponry store, the training arena and royal garden amongst others. My handmaid Claire works ahead of me pointing at different doors and explaining each room we were standing in front of. This was sightseeing. Her soft and polite voice added to make it even better.We walked further, stopping at a leftward turn. “Starting from here to The infinite corridor is the West Wing, milady.” she said gently. “Due to the number of guards and warriors in the pack, the Alphas had to make the West wing available to them. Most of the warriors stay here.”I nodded slowly, hoping my brain would register everything. The walls of the palace were tall, painted in light cream and the door beautifully carved.Every turn we took, guards stood at alert. They were everywhere, every corner carefully watching. The palace

Lila's POV I had barely worn my pajamas when Claire stuck into the room. She bowed immediately, remorseful. “I'm so sorry for what happened in the afternoon, Milady. I didn't mean for you to get scolded by Alpha Daniel.”“oh no. It's not your fault, Claire,” I said softly, shaking my head. “none of these is your fault. I did not do anything wrong and so I'm not angry with you. No one is to be blamed for what happened.”Claire still kept her head lowered, her fingers twisting together nervously. “Milady, I am the one to be blamed for all this. I know it's my fault and I still feel very sad that I made the Alpha scold you. I want to be at peace with myself until I keep apologizing and apologizing. I would always feel better if you allow me take care of you for tonight…please let me give you a massage later tonight after dinner. That's my way of showing how sorry I am.”I blinked repeatedly, a small laugh slipping out of my lips. What exactly is wrong with Claire.“What are you even s

Daniel's POV Dinner was eaten in silence, Lila's head buried in her plate. She didn't want to look up at Marcus and I. The fear was evident on her face.I watched her closely, tough fingers tapping against the table as she pretended to be enjoying dinner. Every little movement she made didn't escape me. I monitored her while eating or taking a sip of my water. I noticed the way her hands trembled slightly and the way she avoided our gaze.She was scared and this was a contrast so the way she had walked into the dining earlier She was scared. I hated to see her scared but at the same time I needed it.Marcus cleared his throat, trying to break the tension, but I didn’t say anything. My eyes stayed on her, watching her jab her fork into a little piece of fish.“Eat properly,” I finally said, my voice low but firm. “You'll need all the strength you can get. I've been watching you for the longest minute now and you barely had two spoons of your food.”She flinched at my words. Every so

Lila's POV By the time I was back in my room, Claire had brought out my clothes, sorted them out, and laid them in the bed.The first thing I did was to go into the bathroom and have a hot water bath.I got under the shower, turned the faucet, allowing the hot water to rush down my skin slowly, washing away the sweat, the scent and anything on me that would remind me of last night. I stood under the shower, for the longest time, my hands pressed against the wall as I tried to calm myself and steady my breathing.My body felt strange despite what happened last night and not this morning. Every minute, the thoughts lingered in my mind. A reminder of the life I lived now, how far away I had become, how broken and depressed I was and what had happened in the span of just a week.All this I had to go through because my younger brother despised me so much that he used me as collateral. I closed my eyes, tilted my head upwards letting the water fall over my face.“all you have to do is for

Lila's POV Marcus' was the first to finish with breakfast. He had eaten his food with so much hunger, he had added another scoop of buttered rice. “Done so quickly?.” Daniel asked Marcus, clearly stunned when he saw Marcus wipe his mouth with a napkin.Marcus dropped the napkin back on the table and leaned slightly into his chair, exhaling deeply. “I want to eat fast because I have a meeting with chief of guards in the pack. You know the security issues that have been ongoing in the pack lately. I need to handle this meeting and discuss strategy with them.” he answered.Daniel nodded slowly. “That’s right… I almost forgot about that. I almost forgot about a meeting I fixed myself.”My house let out an awkward laughter shaking his head like an agama.My heart sank a little at their words. Listening to your conversation made me sick because a part of me wanted Marcus to stay here and not go to the meeting and a part of me wanted the both of them to leave and attend the meeting. I did
