DAHLIA'S POVMy eyes widened in disbelief as I shifted my glance at him who was smirking at him. How come he easily found out, related to that information and, besides, it's impossible for Laura to tell all of the requests that I had said to her towards Kaleid and although I had just met Laura, I know that once information is confidential, she would remain silent about it.None could ever make her talk and spill out the beans, not unless it was ordered from her master.I looked up at Kaleid who was grinning at me and couldn't help but think inside of my heart whether he was just saying this way because he was testing me or something. My brows furrowed as I tilted my head to the other side, making my expression more confused upon hearing what he just said.“I don't get what you meant. I don't have enough time to spend gathering information about you. I never thought that you were this narcissistic.” I calmly answered while looking at him straight in his eyes.However, he wasn't angere
DAHLIA'S POVI went back to my residence. However, Kaleid was with me, following me most of the time like a dog, even though I kept on telling him that I could go back alone, but he still chose to ignore me.I glanced at Kaleid who had a cold expression and gloomy aura all over him and his eyes were so sharp that it would make someone feel like they were being targeted by him if ever they anyone approached him right now.Yes, he is standing behind me and every time I greet someone, his eyes darken even more, but he still wears the smile on his face—a smile that was twitching from irritation.I couldn't help but let out a heavy sigh, especially because of the way he looked at the residence who was trying to get close to me—for another gossip about where I live together with my parents now and they kept on asking about what happened to the monster that had attacked them. Anyway, I know that they were just faking their concerns so that they could get the answers that they wanted in thei
THIRD PERSON's POV Both Dahlia and Mayor Phil were in disbelief at what Kaleid had said with undisguised confidence. He even had that arrogant yet filled with proud look plastered on his face. Dahlia, who was watching his expression, couldn't help but shake her head in a helpless state as she facepalm. Now, she's starting to regret her actions about letting this man go with her and meet Mayor Phil. On the other hand, Kaleid didn't realize what Dahlia was planning next time if he would take the initiative to ask or follow Dahlia to go with her to meet one of Dahlia's well-known people. Kaleid could feel the anger of his wolf as it tried to growl while looking at Mayor Phil. His wolf had been heaving with anger since the day that he had seen Mayor Phil and the way he looked at his mate, which was why Kaleid couldn't take it anymore. So when Mayor Phil asked where Dahlia was currently staying right now together with her parents, Kaleid immediately answered, that his wolf would want
DAHLIA'S POVThe corner of my lips lifted upon seeing Mayor Phil left with no other choice but to comply with our wishes with an angry heart. Although at first, he was going to propose that he would send thirty of his subordinates to be with us, help us go to the forest just to find Mr. Rocco and Kaleid were the first people who had disagreed with his words.“Mayor Phil, are you going to let your subordinates take your stead? You are the one who is responsible for the people of your residence. How could you just easily send your subordinates to the forest knowing that it is dangerous?” Kaleid calmly yet coldly asked while looking at the so of Mayor Phil.When Mayor Phil had heard Kaleid's words, his last sanity had snapped and so was his patience towards us. His eyes openly glared at us without hiding his anger towards us.His forefingers were pointing at us with flushed faces, gritting his teeth from anger. “If you know that the forest is dangerous, then why the hell are you two tryi
DAHLIA'S POVBoth of us, Kaleid, had roamed around all over Mayor Phil's mansion just to find his basement while he was still in a coma due to blood loss and also traumatized after he was almost beaten to death by Kaleid who really seemed like he was going to kill Mayor Phil earlier. If it wasn't for my reminder, for sure Kaleid would have killed Mayor Phil.If it happened that he had killed Mayor Phil, it would be troublesome for me to deal with the excuses and how to hide the evidence without telling anyone that we were behind the scenes of Mayor Phil's case.For sure, the smart and logical people would immediately think that there was something wrong with the death of Mayor Phil and the first suspect would be me and Kaleid and their people, since we were the last people who had met the Mayor at such a late night, which is really suspicious.I snapped back to reality when I heard his voice, which was filled with seriousness. “You shouldn't be reckless next time—no, there shouldn't b
DAHLIA'S POVMy face crumbled like a piece of paper and my eyes filled with disgust and hate upon looking at the thing in front of me.Well, that ‘thing’ was none other than a large cave that was filled with slaves who were still alive yet not really that alive. Although they were breathing, they seemed to be dead. There were men and women that were inside of the two large cages. They were all drained and they looked like sockets because they were too thin, as if they hadn't eaten properly for years.However, there were some of their fellow slaves who were being locked inside of the cage and had died. If I am not mistaken, there were thirty slaves inside of the first cage and twenty-five slaves inside of the second cage, which is next to each other.However, there were thirty-five of them who had already died inside of the cage, leaving the slaves who were still half alive, looking like skeletons.“Fuck... this is so damn cruel!” I couldn't help but grit my teeth from anger as I look
DAHLIA'S POV“I..It was Dahlia! S...She was the one who did this to me! S-She was manipulating us this whole time! She's the real de...cough—” He wasn't able to finish his words when he coughed up blood, making his state become pitiful, especially in the eyes of his people who were looking at him with worry and sympathy.I glanced at Kaleid and raised my brows. “He can talk?” Kaleid smiled and nodded his head while he leaned closer to my face, stealing a kiss from me.“Yeah, I didn't cut off his tongue because he still had to have his tongue in order for him to spout nonsense and talk to his loyal believers to clear his name because they wouldn't believe us if we probably felt Mayor Phil's tongue and would just think that we were lying.” Kaleid explained, making me fell into a deep thought and couldn't help but feel relieved.I almost dug a pit for myself. It was a good thing that Kaleid saved me from the pit that I dug.“Damn! It's that Hail Family again! I told you that they are cu
DAHLIA'S POVKaleid and I were the ones who took the lead for them, Arthur, and also those people among the residents who were also curious about what we, among them, had said earlier. Although they trusted Mayor Phil, after hearing our words, their hearts were in turmoil and couldn't help but waver. They also wanted to see and make sure that the person that they gave their trust was a trustable person, even if it was the Mayor or someone who had a high rank.In other words, they just left Mayor Phil lying on the ground, completely helpless and trembling from fear of his secrets being known to everyone. He tried to open his mouth and scream from the top of his lungs just to get our attention, trying to stop us from going to his underground, but no one paid attention to his scream and even if he shouted and was even trying to use his words to manipulate his people again like the way he used to, he wasn't able to do so.All because I had already managed to capture the heart and attentio
