Levy heard footsteps coming after her, at first she thought that the one following her was Jacob but when a familiar scent wafted over to her nostrils filling up every fibre in her body, she stiffened and increased her pace. She was afraid that if she was to stop right now, she will really pounce on Logan, not because she was feeling something tingly in her abdomen but to scratch the f*ck out of his face. This dumbass!“ Did you really do something? Is that why you are running away from me?” His voice called from behind causing Levy to pause suddenly, she was furious enough to beat the heck out of him and here he was fuelling her anger to the point where she felt like she was being goaded by the devil himself. “ What do you mean by that? What did I do?” She whirled around to face him, her face full of annoyance. She didn’t have time for him nor did she have the time to worry about him being a pain in the ass either. “ Jacob.” He spat her brother’s name as if he was announcing her gr
“ What do you mean that it works too? How in the world does this work?” Leo returned with the tray and placed it on the kitchen aisle with a bang, his sharp eyes cut to Levy and he snapped in annoyance. “ We hired her to work here, not show a bunch of magic tricks! If she does the work like this then what are we paying her for?” Kyle raised his head and looked at Leo with exasperation, Levy too could understand why he was annoyed by Leo’s action. It was true that Levy was hired for working in the kitchen but neither of them said that she couldn’t use magic to finish her job and it wasn’t like she wasn’t doing a good job. The dishes were being cleaned faster than they would have been by hand, so there was no need to make things complicated.“ Leo, can you keep a reign on that straight lace attitude of yours?” questioned Kyle as he handed the newly plated dish to the other server and wiped his hands on the clean apron. “ What matters is that the work is getting done, there is no need f
“ What’s wrong?” Kyle looked up from the strawberry cake with extra cream and looked at Levy with a slightly confused look. “ Did something happen?” Levy shook her head, she didn’t know whether the man was trying to flirt with her or was simply teasing her. What she knew was that the man hasn’t tried to do anything to her, at most he has just sort of passed some pretty boy remarks at her and for that alone she couldn’t announce him as guilty. “It's nothing, I was just thinking how such a creamy cake would taste, don’t you think that all that cream is going to ruin the sweetness?” Kyle’s attention was diverted by her question and he looked at the monstrosity sitting right in front of him. He plated the cake and very calmly despite the twitching of his lips said, “ There is all sort of people in this world, Levy. If we start wondering about each one of them then I am certain either you or I would go crazy.” “ Right.” She picked up the tray and then walked out of the kitchen, ignoring
When Levy stepped out of the break room and headed towards the main dining room, she walked past a couple of servers, their gaze darted to her almost sympathetically and that was enough to make her understand just how much of an annoyance that man was. She pursed her lips and shot them a light smile before walking out of the corridor and heading straight to Kyle. He was talking to the man in front of him, his face a mirror of annoyance..something about the ever-patient Kyle getting angry made Levy’s lips twitch. She never thought that someone could push Kyle’s button like this. Suppressing the curl of her lips, Levy walked next to Kyle before turning her head to the politely smiling gentleman. He was still smiling innocently as if whatever was happening at this moment had nothing to do with him, Levy arched a brow not wanting to get further entangled with the man in front of her. He was handsome, probably even more handsome than most men she has seen in her life as a free bird but so
“ Did he confess?”“ No.” “ Then you mean to say that he just left a bouquet of red roses with nine hundred and ninety-nine roses in your care for simply no reason? Is that what you are saying?” Kyle looked at the big bouquet of roses at the centre of the tea table with a troubled look on his face. It wasn’t that he never saw a proposal before but in the majority of cases the man at least said some words of affection before doing something so extravagant. It was his first time seeing a situation where the man simply left after giving a bunch of roses to the woman he intended to woo. “ I have told you that he only gave me this bouquet, he didn’t say anything else other than that.” Levy rubbed her temples, peace. That was all she wanted but maybe it was universal unidentified law that the more you wanted something the more it wouldn’t let you have it, as a witch she has always been treated as an outcast, a monster something that shifters couldn’t understand. With her additional powe
“ Crazy, he is simply crazy.” That was what Levy’s first thought was, she couldn’t believe it. That man actually used a tracing spell, all because he hoped that the bouquet he handed her wouldn’t be thrown away. Tracing as the name suggested meant ‘following’, witches and mages only used this spell in scenarios when they needed it because the spell was difficult to cast and the magic power that it consumed wasn’t small either. Levy had tried to use this spell for finding the culprit behind Mavis's disappearance. However, the person was hidden too well, every time she used this spell to look for the culprit but she has been blocked, maybe a counterspell or something similar of the sort. No matter how many times she used her powers, no matter how many different spells she used to trace the steps of the culprit, she always met a dead end together to fatigue. The mana consumption was too huge and Levy stopped using the spell after a short while because she wanted to save her energy for
“ The man the one who gave you this bouquet by any chance was he called Derek O’Neil?” He watched Levy closely though she was an ace in hiding her emotions now he threw that question out of nowhere. She was bound to slip up and she did, as soon as he asked the question her face went slack and her gaze sharpened as if wondering how he knew the name of the admirer who came looking for her. Logan clenched his fingers, his wolf snarling inside his head. Derek O’ Neil… one of these days he was going to shred that man into bits and ——- he closed his eyes, why was he reacting like this? So what if Derek was approaching Levy? It didn’t concern him. Of course, he knew that it didn’t concern him but Logan couldn’t help but grind his teeth when he thought about how that sneaky man was trying to cosy up to his mate. He knew that it was unjustified that he was trying to stake his claim on Levy when he had no intention to claim her but she could have done better than this right? Even if she wante
Levy stared at the red roses when suddenly the sound of shoes stomping came from the threshold of the lodge, she lightly turned her head to look at Logan, his expression was still bristling and it looked like if it was possible he would have eaten the rose bouquet instead of throwing it away. He came to a stop in front of her for two seconds she thought that he was going to scold her again but this time he didn’t raise his voice, only glanced at her coldly and said, “ From the next time if you receive such things it's better to throw them away instead of bringing them back with you. Got it?”“ If I could I would have thrown it without you screaming in my ear,” she pointed at the rose bouquet and watched the surprise flicker through Logan’s face when his gaze dropped to the bouquet sitting in the exact same place as it was before. “ But as you can see I can’t do that, it is not my fault and there is absolutely nothing I can do about it.” “ Did you bring it back?” Levy wasn’t surprised
