Myla stared back at Ares with wide eyes while he stared at her with a smirk. His eyes trailed down her body and she instantly sucked in her breath. She felt like he was undressing her with his eyes and for some reason, she didn't mind it and that infuriated her. “I'm glad you would, Ares" That seemed to snapped Ares out of his thoughts. He turned to Cornelius with a nod. “Leave us now, I have to be somewhere with my slave today" Cornelius glanced at them hesitantly then nodded. “Alright, if that's what you desire. Make sure you watch over the Alpha king" Cornelius said to the guards before walking away. “Let's go," Ares murmured, then walked away. Before Myla could take a step further, she heard someone yell Ares' name from behind them. They both turned around and Myla saw a boy her age running towards them with a smile on his face. “Ares! I hardly see you these days, where have you been?" Myla noticed how hyper the guy was and she was kind of surprised at how freely he
Myla opened her mouth to say something but no words came out. Ares smirked as he moved away from her and placed his hand behind his back. “Come along little slave, we have somewhere to be" Myla was about to nod when she caught sight of Luane and Noah. They waved her over and she couldn't help but smile. “Why are you smiling? You're liking the idea of spending time with me?" She turned back to Ares and almost sighed out loud. Why was he so narcissistic? “Erm.... I really need to pee" Ares stared at her for a while then nodded. “You can pee behind those barrels" Myla gasped. “I'm not a dog!" Ares raised an eyebrow at her with an amused smile on his face. “Listen, this is the Werewolf Realm and the only reason no one has pounced on you yet is because you're by my side" Myla narrowed her eyes at him. “Won't that save you the trouble of having a human besides you? I thought you hated humans?" Ares' eyes immediately darkened an
Myla gulped at his words and immediately turned away from him. She used this opportunity to look around and saw that no one else was shaken up by the scene so this was probably something they were used to. She turned back to Ares and saw that he wasn't even looking at her anymore. “Cornelius" She heard him call out and was a little surprised. Hadn't he asked Cornelius to leave them alone? She was even more surprised when Cornelius appeared beside her. “I'll take care of it" Was all Cornelius said before handing Ares another pair of shoes and having some guards clean up the body. Ares nodded at him then took the shoes and wore them before turning back to her. He stared at her for a while then turned Cornelius. “Take her back home, I'll go by myself" And with that, he walked away. Myla sighed but was actually grateful for that. Her head was feeling very light and she just wanted to rest her head. She turned to Cornelius and saw that he
Myla choked on her spit and immediately started coughing. “That coughing isn’t going to get you away from doing what I asked, Little slave” Myla gritted her teeth. “I can’t do that, Sir” Ares tilted his head at her. “And why is that, little slave? Aren't these little things what I bought you for?” Myla bit her lip which made Ares growl. “Don’t ever do that in front of me, Little slave unless you want to see how monstrous I can get” He murmured which sent chills down her spine. She got over her initial reaction and stared at him with confusion. What should she never do? Defy him? Before she could ask him, he moved away from her and walked towards the closet. “Get me something to drink, little slave and return back here immediately” Myla nodded and quickly ran out of the room with a sigh of relief. That guy almost gave her a heart attack. As she walked around in search of the kitchen, she noticed that the maids were all looking at her weirdly with
Myla walked behind Ares still in shock about what happened. Who the hell was that man? She was too curious now. Just then, Ares abruptly stopped and she mistakenly bumped into his back. She groaned as she rubbed her forehead. What was he made of? Rocks? Ares turned to her with a tilt of his head. “There’s no way you would have gone that way if someone hadn’t directed you there. Tell me who did it, now” He said calmly but his eyes told her clearly that he was in no mood for games. Myla glanced at all the maids that were staring at her with wide eyes except the girl that directed her there. The girl was staring back at her with deep hatred and Myla couldn’t help but wonder why. She hadn’t done anything to anyone yet and if she were to tell Ares that it was this girl that sent her there, she would just garner more hate and she didn’t want that. She turned to Ares and shook her head. “No one sent me there, I genuinely got lost” Ares narrowed his eyes on h
Myla stared at him for a while in utter shock. She was about to say something when Cornelius barged into the room with wide eyes. He turned to them. “I heard what happened" He walked up to Ares and grabbed his hand. “Are you okay?" Myla furrowed her eyebrows. Why was he asking Ares that when Ares was the one who murdered someone? Ares rolled his eyes as he snatched his hand away from Cornelius' grip. “Of course I am, when have I never been?" Cornelius heaved a sigh of relief then turned to Myla with a frown. “What did you do this time?" Myla fought the urge to roll her eyes. She knew for a fact that he knew she was the victim here but he just wanted to put the blame on her. “Why are you her, Cornelius?" Ares questioned as he walked over to the bed and sat down. “Your uncles are requesting your presence. Everyone is already there so they are waiting for you now" Ares sighed. He could never get to rest around here. He stood up from the
They all turned to her in shock while Ares just looked amused. “I'm sorry… I didn't mean…." She tried to say but was cut off by Ares words. “Then tell us the right way, Myla" They all turned away from her and glanced at Ares in shock. “Ares, I know she's your slave but she just basically insulted all of us. We have thoroughly thought about this plan for weeks" Leo spoke up. Ares turned to them with a scoff. “Really? Because the plan I heard just now seemed like it was formed by an incompetent child" They all gasped at his words including Myla. “Ares, with all due respect we have been the ones in charge of the raid every year and… " “And I'm always called to come help because your plans are always useless. If your plan was so good like you claimed, I wouldn't be needed all the time" Leo frowned then turned to the others for help but no one looked him in the eye. Ares turned to Myla. “Tell me what you think we should do, Myla" Myla tur
Myla immediately jumped away from Ares like she was commiting a crime but she wasn't… right? Ares sighed as he turned to Isabel. “What are you doing here, Isabel?" Isabel frowned as she walked up to him. She glanced briefly at Myla before wrapping her arm around Ares' arm. Myla raised an eyebrow at her actions but brushed it off. “I came here to get you so we can go to dinner together. I missed you, did you miss me?" Ares stared at her for a while then nodded. Even though he didn't like Isabel in the way she liked him, she was to become his Luna and he always had a deep respect for women and didn't want to upset her. “Let's go" He said as he gently removed Isabel's arms from his. He turned to Myla. “I'll ask Cornelius to stand in front of the room door so if you need anything, ask him. You are not to leave this room unless you are with him, okay?" Myla nodded. “Okay" Isabel frowned. Their relationship didn't seem like that of a slave and mas
As Myla and Cornelius walked out of the castle, towards the backyard, Myla kept thinking of ways to ditch him and go look for Luane and Noah. She knew Cornelius was already suspicious of her so any wrong move now and she would blow her cover. She was about to say something when Cornelius spoke up. “Do not worry, very soon Ares will come back to his senses and realize that pushing you away won't solve his problems" She stared at him with a raised eyebrow. “Cornelius? Is that really you? You were my number one hater when I became Ares' maid" Cornelius shrugged. “That was because I felt like you wanted to hurt Ares but you have proved to me that you aren't here for that and that you really like him so I'm giving you my blessing" Myla couldn't help but frown. How would Cornelius feel when he found out that he had been right about her all along? She sighed. “Cornelius, is it okay if I can be alone for a while?" She expected him to question her but ins
Ares chuckled lightly behind Myla. They were so close to each other that she could feel his breath on her neck. “What's funny?" She questioned as she furrowed her eyebrows. “You're tense right now. Relax, I'm not going to do anything to you" He whispered. Myla sighed. “I Know you won't do anything but It's just that…. I'm not used to laying so close to a guy. The only guys I've laid this close to were my father and best friend" Ares raised an eyebrow. “You lay this close to your best friend? Why?" Myla shrugged. “We have just always been close from birth so whenever he wants to stay over, he sleeps in my room" Ares frowned. “Hmm" Myla giggled. “Do not worry, he's like my brother" Ares scoffed. “I wasn't worried" He wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her closer which made Myla gasp. “What do you think you're doing?" “I'm helping you get used to laying next me and I'm lending you my body heat, you're welcome" Myla chuckled. She turned around in his arms and stared int
Ares pulled away from a breathless Myla with a smile on his face. “Thank you for making this night so memorable for me. I don’t think I’ve ever been this free, this alive, this… happy” Myla smiled then placed a soft kiss on his lips. “I’m happy to hear that” Ares seemed like he wanted to say something else but then, Cornelius appeared and covered Ares’ head with his coat. “It’s raining Alpha, you shouldn't be out here. I’ll take you to a shed right now” Ares rolled his eyes as Cornelius led him away while Myla followed behind him. They arrived at an empty shed and Cornelius immediately created something that Ares could sit down on. Ares groaned suddenly. “Stop treating me like a child, you don’t always have to worry about me. Besides, I’m fine” Cornelius sighed. “Being out in the rain isn’t good for you and neither is it good for you, Myla. Why didn’t you lead him to a shelter?” “I was the one who wanted to stay in the rain so don’t s
Ares held her hand with a smile. “Shall we start over and try to enjoy this festival? I've never been able to enjoy it before" Myla smiled as she held onto his hand tightly. “If you promise to do everything I tell you to" Ares chuckled. “Alright, sure" Myla grinned then dragged him over to the dance going on in front of them. “Ma'am, can we dance with you?" Luckily, the woman didn't look at Myla like she wanted to kill her. Instead, she smiled and nodded. “Sure" Ares pulled his hoodie over his face as Myla dragged him over to the circle of people dancing. “Come on, have fun" Myla yelled as she swayed her body to the music. Ares stood there awkwardly as he stared at everyone. He didn't know how to dance! Was he supposed to move his body like her? Myla stopped dancing with a sigh as she noticed he wasn't dancing with her. She grabbed his hand and made him look at her. “Do not think about it, just let your body move" Ares groaned.
Of course Myla couldn't say it like that unless she was ready to blow her cover. Instead, she said; “Oh… what happened to the chief then? Did.. did you kill him?" Ares turned to stare at her. His stare was becoming so penetrative that Myla had the urge to look away. “That's a story for another day, Let's go?" He turned away before she could reply. Myla sighed before following behind him. “Oh where's ma'am Isabel and Cornelius?" Myla asked as she suddenly noticed that only her and Ares were walking together. “She was complaining about her feet so I asked Cornelius to carry her back to the castle" “And he agreed?" Ares turned to her with a tilt of his head. “Why wouldn't he?" Myla shrugged. “Well I just thought Cornelius wouldn't want to leave your side especially in a crowded place like this. Anything can happen, you could get mobbed" Ares chuckled. “Cornelius doesn't really care about me that much, he just acts in front of you all" Myla gi
Isabel slapped Myla's hand away and pushed her away from Ares. “What do you think you're doing, Slave? You seem to have forgotten your place" Cornelius caught Myla before she could fall to the ground. “Isabel, if you're here to cause a scene then you might as well go back to the castle" Isabel frowned. “But Ares," She whined. “I'm warning you, Isabel" Then he walked away. Isabel glared at Myla before following behind Ares. Cornelius immediately left Myla and followed Ares. “Ughh! This is all my fault. If I hadn't spoken out about where we were going, That witch wouldn't be coming with us now. Don't worry Myla, I'll find a way to get rid of her" Lucas muttered as they walked quickly to catch up with Ares. Myla turned to him with a raised eyebrow. “Why are you saying that to me, Prince Lucas?" He tilted his head. “Because you and Ares are a thing, right? You like him" Myla scoffed loudly. “I do not like him, why does everyone keep
Lucas suddenly coughed to break the tension. Ares cleared his throat as he looked away from Myla. “You look nice in that dress” Myla smiled. “Thank you, I really like it” Ares nodded then turned around and walked away. Cornelius rolled his eyes as he followed him. “Is something wrong?” Myla questioned as she walked towards Lucas but he just shook his head with a smile. “He just got blinded by your beauty for a second and needs to recover” Then he turned to Melody and outstretched his hand towards her. “Let’s go” Melody smiled then took his hand as they walked away. Myla smiled as she watched the pair. She was glad Melody was bought by Lucas.~ They all stood in front of the palace waiting for the carriage. “What’s that? That’s not the royal carriage” Ares muttered as soon as the carriage packed in front of them. “Well you are under disguise, aren’t you? If we were to carry the royal carriage then it defeats the whole purpose of this
Myla sat down on the bed with a sigh. After what had happened, Ares and Cornelius had made her stay in the room while they went for a meeting and Myla quickly found out that her day to day life would be boring without Ares ordering her or Cornelius constantly bickering with her. She smiled but it immediately turned to a frown when she realized why she was smiling. Myla stood up from the bed and walked over to the window with a sigh. She didn’t understand what was going on but the longer she spent time with Ares, the more she tried to convince herself that he wasn’t that bad because that’s the way it seemed to her but was that how he really was?• Ares drove his hand into the man’s eye socket and dragged out his eyeball. The man fell to the ground, screaming in pain while Ares just rolled his eyes and threw the eyeball on the ground and stomped on it because squatting in front of the man. He grabbed the man by the hair and lifted his head up so they were eye leveled. “I told you
Ares stood up from the table with a sigh. “Are you done eating?” He questioned as he turned to Myla. She nodded and hastily stood up. Her eyes drifted towards his plate which made her frown. “You didn’t touch your food, are you okay?” Ares tilted his head at her with a smirk. “Do not worry about me little slave” “Why can’t I worry about you? I asked you to be my friend, remember? And friends care for one another” Ares walked over to her without breaking eye contact. “When did I agree to be your friend? So you think it’s right for a slave and it’s master to be friends?” She shook my head honestly. “No it isn’t but I would like to be your friend” He tilted his head. “Why?” “Because you seem like you need one” His eyes suddenly softened and Myla felt like she had gotten to him but he just turned away from her and walked away. “We can’t be friends so don’t hope on it” He muttered as he walked past her. Myla sighed. Why did he have to be so difficult? She turned around
