Sera was furious at Gerard and Merinda's behavior. But right now she couldn't do anything about it. She vowed not to let Merinda get whatever she wanted.When she got to the room, Sera immediately looked for Amos. The only person who could make her feel better was that slave. However, when she entered the room, all she saw was Amos looking very pale.The man sat silently on the sofa watching the balcony. His gaze was dreamy. Sera was sure Amos knew her presence. The door opening sound was not soft.From the side, Amos' pale lips could be seen."Amos," Sera called out. Even though she had only been gone for a few moments, the man already looked haggard. Did something happen?Sera quickly forgot about Merinda and her worry grew when Amos looked at her with a sad and gloomy gaze.Amos slowly got off the sofa and knelt on the floor to greet Sera.Sera came closer and rubbed Amos' cheek gently."What happened?" she asked softly.Amos looked at Sera, as if he expected to be forced to exerci
Amos must know something. Maybe he can save those special slaves."Why do you want to know?" asked Sera.Amos shook his head. "I don't know if I'm a special slave. I also didn't know why I was different. What makes us different?"Sera pulled her slave's chin to look up at her. The handsome face of Amos was visible, though his lips were dry and pale."You don't need to know, Amos. I will protect you, no matter what happens," Sera said."No, Miss. You said I should get used to being part of Dumitrese. If that's the case, please tell me the smallest thing I want to know," Amos replied. He had to know something.Sera pulled Amos' arm and asked him to sit beside her.Amos obediently complied with the request."You know who we are? Dumitrese are not humans. We need food to stay alive. And the best food for us is human flesh. That's why we created a human farm," said Sera.Hearing that information made Amos' heart beat uncomfortably. He remembered his childhood in the slave house without kno
He didn't know when, but Amos felt that his fear of Sera had eased a bit. Moreover, lately she often engaged him in conversation and answered his questions seriously. Although she still played tricks on him, Sera looked like a woman in Amos' eyes now.Amos was determined to survive this time. He had to be able to get a place in Dumitrese and dig up as much information as possible. That meant he had to refrain from getting carried away by his own feelings.Just like this moment.The banquet was about to begin, and in the room, Amos had already prepared the clothes Sera had given him. A blue shirt with black pants and nice shoes.Amos felt strange. Just days ago, he was the one on the table to be served as food. Now he was present to watch his friend become food. He didn't know whether to be grateful or unhappy."If you're ready, come here." Sera's voice came out of the dressing room.Amos buttoned up his shirt and walked quickly towards Sera.She then took him into the dressing room. I
Amos grasped Sera's hand tightly and smiled, trying to calm the woman down."I won't cause trouble, Miss. Don't worry," Amos said. He then looked at Gerard, trying to be brave."Sir, you don't have to worry, I won't do anything there," Amos said. He knew Gerard had never liked him especially after Sera said he was her mate. Gerard only thought of him as food, nothing more.Amos looked at Merinda instead. The woman who made his heart uneasy. Her words still rang in his ears. But he ignored them.Gerard smiled mockingly. "We'll see what you do when you see your friend dying."Amos gulped. He knew he would have trouble dealing with his own feelings, but he couldn't give up. He had to gain Dumitrese's trust and stand by Sera.Sera said nothing, pulling Amos away from there as quickly as possible. The tail of her eyes caught Merinda's odd gaze. Her gaze was intensely fixed on Amos."Don't talk to her. Especially that woman," Sera warned.Amos nodded obediently. "Yes, Miss."Amos believed S
Amos shouldn't have walked anywhere that night. If he had restrained himself, Pete might still be alive today.***The night was hot enough to make sweat run down Amos' forehead. Probably Pete's too. But the twenty-year-old youth was more concerned about his surroundings and whispered anxiously repeatedly next to Amos."Come on, we shouldn't be here!" Pete whined. His burly body that was used to working under the sun was completely incompatible with his childish behavior.Actually, Amos was scared too. His legs were shaking violently. But he didn't want to go back. Not tonight. He would never get another chance."It's the only day they all go out. This is our only chance if we want to know what really happened." Amos pulled Pete along, hurrying behind the tall pillars supporting the tall building that had housed him for twenty-one years. A building he had never left for even a day.Several black uniformed guards with weapons in hand seemed to walk quickly past them.Amos felt his chest
Riel, Sera's bodyguard, arrived at Sera's room. He was a twenty-five-year-old man."Miss, you really brought a slave into the room?" Riel looked worried.Sera didn't care. She took off her jewelry and sat in front of the mirror."Miss, if Mr. Dumitrese finds out, you'll be in trouble. After all, you're getting married soon." Riel did not give up. He had to remind Sera, as it was his duty."Why is that? I just called him to my room." Sera cleaned her face.Riel sighed. Everyone knew why Sera had brought a man into her room. But this was the first time she had summoned a slave."Miss, please just listen to me this time," Riel pleaded."Come out. I'm not in the mood for weapons right now," Sera said calmly.Riel gulped. If that threat was coming, it meant the woman really didn't want to be bothered. He lowered his head and left. He had to strategize how to keep Tudor from knowing what Sera was doing.Riel called Hoper and James to take over the slave."Take him as quietly as possible. Don
Amos fell silent, his chest pounding as he realized the possibility of being killed by the woman. He heard several slaves return in a state of dismemberment before finally dying and being brought back to the main mansion.Amos trembled. He kneeled himself at Sera's feet, begging for mercy. "Miss, forgive me! Please don't kill me!"Sera frowned. "If you make me wait, I will definitely kill you."Amos sat back down, looking at the woman once more, before finally standing up and moving slowly to the soft bed there. Then, hesitantly and slowly, he lay down on his back. His gaze gazed up at the ceiling of the room with its beautiful moon painting."Ah!" Amos squealed in surprise when Sera touched his toned and muscular stomach. However, she didn't let go of her hand, instead tracing his skin slowly upwards, sending a sting through his body.Amos had never felt a feeling like this before. A touch could make the whole body stiffen and feel electrified.Amos' breathing was ragged, he was havin
Amos closed his eyes. Sera moved from his body. He heard the woman cursing in annoyance. Amos, however, felt very relieved. "Don't move and wait for me here!" Sera ordered in a threatening tone. Amos nodded obediently, not daring to move an inch. If Sera wanted, the woman could easily slam his body on the floor and he would die. Amos didn't dare act when he imagined that. He just stared at Sera who took her clothes and put them back on. The woman's furry ears had disappeared. She was back to being a normal human being. Amos was sure that Sera was the kind of werewolf that Barferis, the slaves' guide, had often told him about. The slaves didn't know who their parents were. There was only one old man who managed the slaves in the fortress. His name was Balferis. Thanks to Balferis, the slaves got information about the outside world. Amos often imagined how beautiful the outside world was based on Balferis' stories. Balferis often told stories about werewolves who would eat humans. Th
