When I opened my eyes, I realized I fell asleep in the middle of all the work I was doing. I blinked and looked around, stopping at Lucius’ empty seat. Where did the devil go?

I shifted my gaze to the files in front of me. Then to the wall clock. I groaned, knocking my head with my knuckles. For goodness’ sake, it was almost six in the evening and I only finished two columns of the shelf!

What should I do now?

For a long minute, I remained sitting on the floor, staring at the mess in front, contemplating what to do. Thinking of a wicked way to escape this hell, I stood and wandered around the room to confirm if Lucius wasn’t really around. When I confirmed it, I went to the door to see if it was locked.

But before I could touch the doorknob, I stopped when I saw a small note pasted on the door.

‘Don’t you dare try to run. I will find you.’

I immediately knew who wrote it. I twisted the doorknob, finding out it wasn’t locked. My eyes narrowed and stepped back. He left a warning but did

    Wait. Did I hear him right?I leered at Lucius darkly, wondering what he had up to his sleeves to let me join his dinner. He couldn’t be this merciful to someone who disobeyed his word.Walking toward him, I asked, “Are you planning to poison me?”One corner of his lips tugged up. “What made you think that? I already told you, didn’t I? If I’m going to kill someone, using poison is the last thing I would do.” He clicked his tongue and eyed me like a snake. “Accusing your master of such a crime, little wolf, don’t you think that’s absurd?”Right. He wouldn’t kill someone through poison and I also doubt he would kill me this early. After all, I was someone he could use against Benedict.“I’m letting you eat so you will not make a mistake tomorrow.”“Where are we going?” I asked as I took a seat, my gaze fixated on the table. There were two plates of pork steak while others were side dishes. Though I was hungry, the meat was half-cooked and I didn’t eat barely cooked meat even when it wa

    I slept the rest of the flight and only woke up an hour and half before we landed. Lucius had changed into a black button-down long-sleeved shirt and black tux. His attire was all black only accented by a silver chain on his neck and silver Rolex. Meanwhile, my dress was also dark – a gradient of dark red and black, which gave me an idea how Lucius loved dark colors. He must have picked it himself.The dress was nice though. It was a tube dress with a puffy skirt extending down my knees. The upper part of the tube was black, then going down it turned dark red until it turned to a brighter shade of red at the end.Lucius left the cabin while I dressed up. I tied my hair in a classic bun, leaving a few curly strands at the sides. While finishing my makeup, I heard the door click and I saw Lucius walking towards me in the mirror. I put the gloss down and stood to face him.“Are we landing now?”Instead of answering, I saw his eyes move around my face before it went down. I cleared my thr

    "Nervous?" Lucius asked as we walked to the first deck. People in dashing dresses and suits were everywhere, and it seemed like almost all of them knew Lucius."I can hear your heart. Calm down, little wolf. No one will gobble you up. Well, at least when you're with me." "I must say your hearing sense is very sharp, master," I whispered back, smiling at him with a little glare."I'm the greatest alpha, aren't I?"A narcissistic fool.I pulled my hand from his arm and faced the sea. The cruise ship was slowly departing from the port. I've been to a cruise ship before, once, but not this big and grand. The ship didn't fascinate me though. It was the sea."Let's go to the central hall to greet the couple," Lucius said."Couple?" I asked as we walked inside."This is an anniversary party of Florence and William Atkinson. Florence is a close friend of my late mother who married William, alpha of one of the biggest packs here in Turkey.""Then why are you so sure that Benedict will be arou

    Benedict’s eyes turned to slits. I knew he was annoyed so to annoy him more, I smiled at him. Lucius chuckled softly in my ear. Though before Benedict could come up with a retort, a feminine laugh resounded on the entrance of the hall.I turned my head to see who it was and saw Lucius’ relatives, his Aunt Roselle and her daughter, Sophie. When they spotted Florence and William, they immediately walked over us.“What a grand celebration this is, Florence,” Roselle said, looking around with her rogue colored lips curving up. When she noticed Lucius, she parted her lips, but when she noticed me, she shut it and furrowed her brows. “I thought you won’t attend, Lucius.”“I want Maddy to meet Florence,” Lucius replied.Giving me a final look, Benedict excused himself before walking out of the group. I kept glaring at his back until I couldn’t see him.“You’re not engaged for long, cousin. You shouldn’t be bringing her over important occasions. Who knows you’d get tired of her tomorrow or th

    “But you can do nothing now. You can’t put up a fight against me,” Benedict said surely, inching closer to me that I was afraid he’d suddenly push me off the deck. I loved the sea but wasn’t a good swimmer to enjoy a night swimming at this time.“How sure are you that I can’t put up a fight, huh?”“Why, do you think you can win over me now just because you have Lucius Voss beside you?” He shook his head with a playful smile on his lips as if thinking that I had lost my mind. “You are wrong, princess. Lucius is not a prince charming who helps a random damsel in distress.”“I beg to differ. I do look like a prince, Benedict. While you look like a villain,” I heard Lucius' voice and it wasn’t long when he appeared beside Benedict. “Are you that jealous of me to badmouth me in front of my woman?”Lucius took a step closer to me and held my waist. Benedict watched me as if he was trying to decipher whatever puzzle I had on my face. It seems like he was trying to tell if what was going betw

    We returned to Seattle the next day. It was a long flight and I used the time I had to ponder about some things.I clearly understood now what Lucius wanted me to do. For me to be his puppet and obey all his whims in disguise of helping me ruin Benedict. But if I blindly follow his every command, wouldn’t it be not my revenge but his? And at the end of the day, what would I become? A trash at his disposal. Which didn’t sound good to me.He had his plans, but I should have my own too. I couldn’t just rely my goals to someone who wouldn’t think twice of killing me if I made a mistake. I should have my own direction.That was why I came up with a plan myself.I couldn’t just let that Lucius Voss control me. If honey trap was his way of luring Benedict to his web, then I would use that same tactic to him.Seduction. I looked over the window of my room, pacing back and forth, thinking how I could possibly fool two men at the same time. Not just ordinary men but devil alphas.It would sure

    It smelled like flowers, honey, vanilla, something with a bit of sandalwood. I could not pinpoint exactly what it smelled like but it smelled so nice. When I regained consciousness, it was the first thing I noticed. Then when I opened my eyes, I noticed the room I was in which wasn’t anything familiar. It was spacious and the bed was nice. The walls were painted beige and it was cozy. Was I somewhere in Lucius’ manor? What happened in the garden? How did I get here? I rose from the bed, confused. Lucius didn’t allow me to enter just any room. Trying to remember what happened after I went close to the mirror, I went off the bed and walked over the glass window. Tall curtains fell on the sides, letting the light of sunset go through. Wait, it was already sunset? But I went to the garden at eleven and spent a few hours there. Did that mean I slept the rest of the afternoon? My eyes widened in horror. I should be back in my room before Lucius arrives! Turning on my heel, I stopped wh

    “Come back here,” Lucius said seriously. There was no mockery nor playfulness in his tone.I went closer to the mirror and put my hand on it to see if I could get through it but I only touched its surface like a glass. I tried to break it with two fists but I couldn’t.I thought I was dreaming? If someone could tell he was dreaming in his dream, then that could be lucid dreaming. And weren’t lucid dreams supposed to be easy since you could take control of whatever’s happening around you? Besides, wolf shifters’ minds were stronger than humans. It was rare for us to have such nightmares where we are trapped and powerless like this.Could it be that I never got back to the manor and got trapped inside the mirror in the maze? After all, the last thing I remembered, I went close to the mirror and felt like I was being pulled by a strong force before everything went black.“Get out of that fucking mirror, Madeline,” Lucius ordered once again as if he couldn’t see me trying to get out.

    Alec couldn’t speak in too much irritation and probably, anger. His eyes were so dark and it was almost red, like the color of evil itself. The color of blood and war. The color of death. Yes, red can symbolize love like that of a rose. But it could symbolize many things such as what I have mentioned already.I know what I am doing is a big risk, but I have to try regardless. I need to save the innocent lives of those people who chose to stand by my side. They don’t deserve death like that especially when Alec is the one serving it. He is evil. His soul—if ever he has one which I doubt—deserves to rot in hell all together with his evil subordinates, especially Vienna. If only I am given a chance, I will really kill her. With the anger I am feeling for her, I won’t miss it for sure. She is just lucky that I am not capable enough to do that especially with the given circumstance. Because if only I was capable enough and there is no Alec blocking my way, I would have surely done it, give

    Back when I was young, my dream was simple. Stay out of troubles, earn a medical degree, make a good career, marry later on to my boyfriend at that time and have kids, maybe two or three. I envy those big families so I wanted to make my own. Maybe because I grew up in a broken family and I felt lonely. When Dad remarried to a woman who has a daughter same age as me, I thought I would finally have someone I can call as sister. I wanted a sibling. I wanted a normal happy family. But turns out that I would be kicked out in my own house because of her. Not that I was literally kicked out though since I left myself. But it is still the same for me because I knew I had no choice but to leave. It was getting worse every day and I don’t want Dad to worry about my issues. I went to Lynnwood, hoping I would calm down there and I also hoped that my stay in a new surrounding would bring good to me.However, looking back now, I can say that it brought me to something both good and bad.

    One day is left and I can say that the two days had passed were the hardest two days of my life. Not because of the hard training I received from Henry, Jaxon and Thomas, but because it seemed that there was still tension between the three sides. And it is worth mentioning that Lucius almost broke Jaxon's jaw. They have been an ass to each other no matter how Landon tries to behave. Carter is on his best behavior, though, no one can contest that. But I noticed his bold glares at Landon sometimes whenever their opinions oppose each other. I appreciate how he is trying to behave even though it's obvious that he has been trying to be patient with Lucius this whole time."Ah. I hate the other men in your life. I fucking hate their guts," Lucius whispered to me one time. I just laughed and pulled him to a hidden corner to give him a short kiss."Thank you for being patient for me. I appreciate it," I said while my hands were on his nape."What else can I do? I love you and I will always, a

    “Henry? Why Henry when you can train me yourself?” I asked Lucius because I really want him to train me himself. I know he is skilled enough to do that. He is powerful and very strong so I don’t understand now why he wants Henry to train me in heavier training when he already trained me in some basics before. I mean what is wrong with that? I am sure he is capable enough to teach me everything I need to learn. Not that it can guarantee that I will learn everything within three days because that is really impossible and I know that, but let's just say I am more comfortable around him than anyone else. Not that Henry makes me uncomfortable. He is a great man and a very loyal one, of course. But can’t I have my husband train me so we can have more time together? I mean who knows what will happen three days from now? No one knows what will happen—well, except those vampire/s who have the ability of precognition—but except them, no one knows.“It’s just, what we did in the past was only th

    “Jaxon, listen. All happened too fast. Lucius was taking a bath in our room while I was outside and walking by the shore of the beach. We didn’t have any that Alec had actually planned to make a move that day, so we let our guards down. A member of the council showed up out of nowhere, she has the ability to make portals, so that was how she managed to kidnap me so quickly. Lucius figured it soon but he didn’t go to Alec’s manor because he knew that if he does, we will just be killed, so he made a plan. Apart from that, he was confident that Alec won’t harm me until the day of the ritual. I was confident too. Because we know that Alec needs me alive for the ritual and he wants my body to be at its best state when Elizabeth’s soul will take charge on it. He never harmed me, so please stop your banters and stop being mad. The important thing here is that I’m safe and Alec won’t be able to get me for his stupid plans anymore.”“How sure are you that he won’t be able to do it again? He di

    “Jaxon is outside,” just when Mom said that, I smelled a werewolf’s scent, Jaxon’s scent.Lucius glanced at me with a darker expression. Of course he doesn’t like Jaxon. But then they are even because Jaxon feels the same. We just finished cooking pancakes and watching a football game while Mom throws question every now and then. I was a little uneasy about it though because I felt Mom has doubts on Lucius but the way I see it, Landon isn’t the least bit affected and is all polite to her. Well, maybe he’s trying to impress her. I would love that kind of effort given to my mother but as much as I want that, I also don’t want to put too much pressure on Lucius's shoulders. I don’t want him to feel that he has to force himself into doing something just for me. I don’t mind if he would show a little irritation or something, but he didn’t. or maybe he just really doesn’t mind.“I told him that you visited. He told me he is coming,” Mom went on.“When did you tell him? It’s just early in th

    I still couldn’t believe it. I couldn’t believe it that all this time the Lucian I was reading about in Elizabeth’s diary was the one who took care of Lucius ever since he was a child, the man Elizabeth loved first and Alec killed him because of jealousy. I can’t help but feel a little guilty even though it wasn’t really something I did. I don’t know. It must be because no matter what I say, Elizabeth is still my great grandmother, someone tied to my bloodline, and most importantly, someone who looked exactly like me.“You shouldn’t feel guilty about it, Maddy. you have nothing to do with it so you shouldn’t feel the least bit guilty. Even I don’t blame Elizabeth for anything. It just happened that destiny chose to play with her. She found love with a human but ended up meeting her mate and she was powerless when it came to vampire bond. Trust me, a lot are slaves to that bond, and I’m so lucky that you were an exception. Because damn, I don’t think I can do it if you leave me for Sim

    “While I was in Alec’s manor, I discovered something,” I said to Lucius while I was leaning on his chest after our heated lovemaking. It was when I had the time to talk about what happened in the manor. I never had the chance earlier because I was too busy dealing with how badly I missed Lucius and all I just wanted was for him to touch and kiss me. who can blame me anyway? We were just done with our second and the real wedding, and we were in the middle of our honeymoon but Alec ruined it all, imprisoned me at his goddamn manor and put me chained in a grand bed, disabling me from doing anything for the whole eleven days. Can you imagine how much pains I have went through within those days? One couldn’t imagine.“What did you discover?”“Elizabeth had a family.”“She had?”“Yes. She was adopted. But her adopted father did something that made her run away from home. You heard about different sects that dominated Great Britain in late 18th century? She was an heiress of an influential s

    "Are you hungry?""Yes," I answered breathily."Alec didn't feed you?" he asked quietly, there was a dark edge on his voice."He did. I'm not thirsty for soul, though." I grinned and gave him a smooth peck on his lips.He tilted his head, giving me a good view of his protruding adams apple."What are you thirsty for, then?I rolled my eyes while grinning. It was so obvious in his mischievous look that he already knew. He just wants to play with me. And goddamn it, God knows how much I love to play with him in every way I could.He kissed the corner of my lips while I'm laughing. He then climbed his way to the stairs and the next thing I knew, we are already on his room. Our room, I mean. He told me, I remember, that whatever he owns, I own it too. And that I also own him. I don't want him to refer it that way actually. I told him he's a man of his own, that nobody owns him not even his wife, but he insisted that he is letting me own him, every piece of him.Yes, my husband is such a v
