Lahat ng Kabanata ng Take Me Home, Master: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 8

I didn’t agree to him right away.I asked his name, and he said it was Seville.I told him to give me three days, and I’d give him an answer.As I walked out of the shelter, my steps felt lighter than ever before.The weight that had been pressing on my heart for over a year seemed to lift in that very moment.I stopped worrying about whether Nolan would be angry, or whether he’d used my gold coins to curry favor with Sofia again. My mind was filled entirely with Sevir’s golden eyes, brimming with devotion.When I got home, I didn’t do what I usually did: rush to Nolan to apologize, to comfort him, or to ask if he was hungry.I walked straight into the study and emptied out all the savings I’d been hiding in the earthenware jar.I wanted to prepare the best bed for Sevir, the best cooling water pad, the freshest venison—the very best of everything.He’s so good; he deserves it all.As I counted the gold coins, I noticed the jar had emptied considerably again.I didn’t even have to thin

Nolan lost control instantly. He lunged forward and swept the glass off the table. The sound of shattering glass was exactly the same as the day I came home.But this time, I wasn’t afraid anymore.“For the past year, all you’ve been thinking about is Sofia, haven’t you?”I looked at him, the tenderness gone from my eyes. “Now I’m granting your wish. You can be with her openly, no longer having to secretly save up gold coins or secretly draw maps to find her. Isn’t this what you’ve always wanted?”“I don’t want that!”Nolan’s eyes instantly reddened, his pink-purple eyes brimming with tears. He extended his wolf claws and clamped down on my wrist with such force it felt like he was about to crush my bones. “Anno, you can’t sell me! I was left to you by your parents on their deathbeds! “I’m your werewolf! You can’t do this to me!”“My werewolf?” I laughed, gently prying his hand loose. “Nolan, ask yourself this: in the past year, has there been a single moment when you treated me like y

Three days later, I slipped out of the house while Sevir was preparing breakfast for me.Just thinking about what happened over those three days made my face flush and my heart race; my legs still felt a little weak.That werewolf who seemed so gentle and shy—once he let loose, he was practically an insatiable beast, fucking me so hard I couldn’t even get out of bed.I needed some fresh air to cool off.But I hadn’t been standing by the river for long when I heard a strange noise coming from the manhole cover beneath my feet.I instinctively took a few steps back and saw the cover being forced open. A filthy figure crawled out from inside.It was Nolan.He’d lost a lot of weight. His once neatly groomed fur was now a tangled mess, and his face and body were covered in scars. Those pinkish-purple eyes, which had always held an air of arrogance, were now bloodshot—he looked so disheveled I almost didn’t recognize him.I turned and walked away, not wanting anything to do with him.“An’nuo

All danger subsided at a single command from Sevir.The pack of rogue wolves was driven out of the forest, never to set foot here again.Nolan was among them, escorted by the pack, vanishing into the depths of the forest.Exhausted, I fainted.When I woke up, I was lying in my bed at home.Sever sat by the bed, wiping my hands. When he saw me wake up, his eyes instantly welled up with tears, and he lowered his head like a child who had done something wrong.Then, I made him kneel as punishment.I sat in a chair, a stick in my hand, watching Sevir kneel obediently before me. Angrily, I demanded:“Speak! What else are you hiding from me?”He lifted his head, his golden eyes brimming with pleading. He cautiously tugged at the hem of my shirt: “Anno, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have kept my true identity from you.”“What exactly did you do wrong?” I raised the stick and tapped him lightly on the shoulder. “Still trying to talk your way out of it! Nolan already told me—you went into the forest
