ShannonShit! He knew.He was driving smoothly, and I was trying my best not to make a sound, but he still knew.A little earlierI stayed in the house and looked outside the window, good, Vernon was talking to Adonis. Would he take Adonis with him? He didn't want to take me but he would take Adonis
His hands started to roam around my body, he went straight for my breast and I almost moaned out loud. I couldn't because he swallowed all the noise I made.He wasn't just satisfied to kiss me on the lips anymore. He moved down to my neck, he nipped down lightly. I could finally breathe freely when
Chapter 75 Wrapped in a BlanketShannonThe car window was lowered all the way down by Vernon to let in some air. The wind caressed my sticky skin, I was hyper-aware of what we had just done in the car.I stayed on top of him for a while. When I felt him moving, I tried to move out of his way."Oh s
ShannonWhat Vernon said did make me realize that I never seemed to understand myself. I never even considered who my parents were. I just assumed they died in war. But what if they didn't die? But that would mean that they just left me there... An infant was left in the woods to die.What kind of p
VernonThe truck was kicking up a ton of dust in the air, I could see it in the rearview mirror. I was feeling a little bit tired before all this, but now when I turned my wheels and sped out of the rest stop without paying, my heart was beating so fast like I drank a gallon of expresso.‘They are n
ShannonWhen Vernon offered to take me to "her", I couldn't lie panic raised in my heart. An old friend? And a "she"? Was there a she-wolf with him when he was younger? Was that why he was the first person he could think of after this traumatic event?I knew now was not the time to think about this,
Vernon"So you think she is from the guardian family?"Isobel asked me with her arms crossed on her chest, she raised one of her eyebrows. It was really weird to see a kid do this, looking so young yet acting so adult. I just hoped whatever bothered her for years could be over soon."Yes.""How can
VernonMy heart dropped. I knew he would be able to recognize my disguise since he was my father. But I never expected him to expect me in this way. But I was here for a reason.So I pushed open the door and went inside. He was sitting in a chair behind the desk, his face didn't show any kind of emo
Chapter 115Shannon"I know. But how are you going to do that? If you don't have the secret weapon, you will need all the help you could use."He seemed to be considering what I just said."Yes, but I really don't want to risk you, and that little girl. If you are not going to Arthur's, where do you
Shannon"What do you mean it will need a lot of my blood?""You said it yourself, you need one drop of your blood to light up the rock. But the treasure land is a land. You will need to spill all your blood and maybe some more to get the treasure to unlock. Are you okay with this?"I didn't know. I
VernonI knew my decision not to tell her that my father was the one who made her an orphan would come and bite me in the ass later.But I never expected that the truth would be slapped on her face like this. By a strange guy who was allegedly supposed to be her husband.All I noticed was that I saw
ShannonI said okay because I already saw Adonis standing behind him. Adonis was a little taller than Jayde. I pretended to pick up Isabella and walked over, but no more than two steps, I saw Adonis put him into a headlock.Hugo pushed back and Adonis dropped the knife. I set Isabella down and immed
ShannonBefore I could ask out loud, Vernon was the first to speak."What do you mean gone?""I wanted to check on him after I woke up, and when we walked to the closet, he was already gone..."Fuck, we underestimated him. I remembered we checked on him last night, and that meant at some point last
ShannonI couldn't sleep. I tossed and turned until the midnight blue turned white again. I couldn't stop looking at Isabella who was sleeping peacefully beside me. I knew it was creepy, but I couldn't help but look at her features. And I replied to what Hugo said in my mind.She was my cousin, she
Shannon"What?"I never expected to hear Vernon's name in my family matter..."Didn't he tell you? I expected him not to. Since he brought you here, he knew that you were the heir of the guardian family. In fact, he was the one who told you, right?"I nodded even without thinking. The past 10 minute
ShannonI slowly pushed the door open, making as little sound as possible. Luckily I already checked the door when we were picking rooms. I picked this room because I didn't have to go around any room in case I bumped into Vernon on my way out.I didn't even put on my shoes for this. I supposed ther
Shannon"What do you mean?"Vernon and I asked at the same time. And then we turned to look at each other and shared a look.But that didn't escape Hugo, because he just smiled and shook his head."Oh, nothing. I remember someone from my childhood."This concerned me even more, because Vernon said t
