Logan must have sensed the dissatisfaction in her eyes because he chuckled calmly while twisting the knob of the front door, “ Were you expecting me to say that I regret the decision that I made back then by sending you to the frost gate prison?” He walked inside the house leaving her to follow after him, for a while Levy very much wanted to turn around and leave with a huff but she hasn’t eaten anything since lunch and now she was hungry. So, even though she hated the idea of being in the same space as that rotten man, she stepped inside the house and breathed in the scent that has been driving her crazy these days. Why? Why did he have to smell so tantalising? If only he smelled like rotten cheese covered with green fungus she wouldn’t have found him so tempting!“ Of course not,” wanting to save at least a bit of face for herself, she replied to his question. “ I did not for a second thought that you will ever so much as regret that decision, you have always been like that, irrat
Levy didn’t believe that she was being confined in the lodge like this but there was nothing that she could do, she would have of course liked to go against Logan but something about the look in his eyes told her that she would indeed be punished greatly if she was to sneak out of the territory, so she has been on her best of behaviour allowing Ryan to bring her in and out of the territory and other than that she has stayed in the lodge reading books that Logan has brought for her. She tried her best to stay put for three days but on the fourth day, she started feeling a bit antsy. After reading the books that were left by her mother, she noticed a very peculiar thing—— her mother liked to highlight the name of the most common magical herbs and sometimes she would underline an entire sentence that made no sense when read separately. Of course, highlighting and underlining were simple habits when reading a book but her instincts told her that there was more to what she could see and
Little mouse? Was he calling her mouse because he thought that she was skulking behind him and watching what he was doing? Levy’s mouth twitched as she shook her head, surely the man was simply thinking too much all right. “ I was just walking, I didn’t expect to see you here.” “ Of course, you didn’t, most unexpected incident happens when we don’t expect them to happen at all,” Regal said in a sing-song voice as he caught hold of his footing and straightened up properly before catching sight of the webbed eye flickering under the sunlight. “It's good to see you again, I was half expecting to hear the news of you running away from the territory.” Levy was slightly confused when she heard him say that, she tilted her head and asked, “ What do you mean by that? Why will I run away?” “ I heard that my brother has barred you from leaving, he even asked one of the enforcers to bring him a shackle from the dungeon, for he is certain that you will run away from here,” He said oh so casu
There it was, she could sense his attempt at trying to get close to her but Levy wasn’t someone who would just get along with someone who opened up to her a little and what was more she had a feeling that there was a reason as to why Regal was trying to get close to her, his sincerity was tainted and so was the small confession that he made, so she immediately took a few steps back and smiled at him politely. “ I do not think so, you are in a much better position than me, Regal,” she said drawing a line between the two of them at once, she had no desire to play whatever game Regal was playing, she did not know anything about him and before returning to the pack, she did not even have the idea that he even existed, getting close to him without even knowing what kind of person he was, it would certainly be a foolish decision. A soft chuckle escaped from Regal’s lips as he said, “ You are a smart woman and cautious as well, I am surprised that someone like you was caught up in a murde
“ No, of making sure that she does not sneak out of the territory causing another alarm like this morning, but it seems that my hard work is not appreciated. I think I will leave now that I have brought her safely back to you, I have something else to do,” replied Regal while grounding his teeth, after that he turned around and was almost on the verge of leaving when he paused and then turned to his brother and swiftly added, “ Maybe you know it better than me.”It was as if Logan wasn’t just ruthless to her as her mate but he wasn’t half as caring as the other brothers when it came to his siblings either, suddenly Levy felt a bit sympathetic towards Regal who was being roasted like he was piece of meat lying on top of a barbecue grill. “I do not pretend to be an expert but I might as well know better than you,” said Logan with a slight hum as he crossed his hands behind his back and looked at Regal with a smirk. “ After all, if you were as good as me then what happened this mornin
Did he just call her a fool? For she was sure that he did, after all, she was sharp enough to catch on to his sarcastic words. She glared at him and no sooner did she do that, the smile that was hanging on Logan’s lips vanished as he leaned forward and said, “ Are you sure, you want to glare at me, little cat? Do you really believe that just because you have magical powers you can get away with anything? As far as I know, even you do not have the right to attack just anyone, if you do then I have full rights to complain about you to the wizard association, and given what happened today, I would very much want to get back at them.” “ I only glared at you,” said Levy as she retracted her glare and looked at him as if she was asking since when did he become so touchy as a soft cotton candy? “ I haven’t attacked you.” “ But you wanted to right?” He said cottoning on to what was going on in her head at once. Before she could say anything, he cut her off and repeated his question, “ So wh
“ I know that you will not tell me this but what else did Regal tell you about him being different from the others, did he say anything about how he was different from others?” Logan questioned her as he crossed his hands behind his back. Levy frowned but she still replied, “ He didn’t say anything, he just said that he was treated differently by the pack mates and nothing more, his treatment was very much similar to mine and that is why he felt that the two of us were same.” No sooner did she finish speaking Levy heard Logan laugh in amusement she frowned and said, “ What’s there to laugh about, did he lie to me or something?” “ Oh no, he did say something right, I have to say that I did not expect this from him though, ” said Logan as amusement glittered in his eyes, his lips twisted in a humorous smile as he added, “ You should go and take a look at Lily, I still have some things to do, after all, I cannot let my poor heartbroken brother do all the work.” After that he turned a
Levy knew that the man was trying to bait her, she was not a fool to fall into his trap, so she immediately rolled her eyes and replied to him, telling Derek that baiting her like this would not do anything good to him, after all, why should she go and meet him by putting her personal safety at risk? They were not that close, yes he might have handed her a few good things but she has never asked him for them, he has given these things to her out of his own free will if he wanted to let her take advantage of him then she was going to take advantage of him. She was no longer the naive little lady she was ages ago. What Levy has learned in the prison was that as long as she survived successfully it did not matter how she did it. She picked up the thick gloves that one would use to take things out of the oven and then opened the microwave as she wore the gloves and then took the things out one by one. Just as she was done putting down the last dish on the table, she heard her phone chi
