HERMIONE'S POVI went to the basement and saw the three assassins who had been waiting for me.It seemed that Phoenix had already commanded these three to follow whatever I wanted to command them.“All the three of you are good at bows?” I asked while looking at them.The three of them were triplets.Reo had a scar on his left brow and he had a cold expression.Vincent had a warm and easy-going personality, plus he radiated a sunny atmosphere.Yves was timid among them.Reo coldly nodded his head and didn't answer my words, as if it would be wasting his saliva. Yves was a timid one and he was already shaking when I asked him.But thankfully, Vincent was with them.He happily answered my question with a warm smile plastered on his face.“Yes! We are good at bows!” He then scratched the back of his head and gave me an apologetic look. “Please don't mind both of them, they are very nice and easy to talk with.”I nodded my head and didn't make a fuss out of it. “It's nothing. I don't real
THIRD PERSON'S POV“Did they succeed in killing Phoenix's mate?” Mia coldly asked and her eyes were viciously staring at the woman who was dressed in all black and she was currently tapping her fingers on the table.The woman had clear skin, with no visible pores. If Mia didn't know that this woman was already nearing seventy-nine, she would believe that she was still in her twenties due to the way she looked.Anatasia let out a heavy sigh and looked at Mia, who was filled with impatience. “Why are you asking me? Do I look like a CCTV camera to you?”Mia glared at her. “Aren't you a witch?! I paid a huge sum of money to you, yet you can't even do a simple job?! Are you sure that you're a witch?!”Anatasia sneered back at her. “Do you think it's easy for me to know everything and do everything you ask me to do?! The woman you have been targeting also had a witch on her side, currently protecting her!”Before Mia could say anything, Anatasia had already added heavily. “If it wasn't for
THIRD PERSON'S POVMia's eyes slowly widened and they slowly filled with undisguised hatred towards Hermione.“How could you do this to me?! Aren't you aware that I am the Alpha King's beloved?! Does he even know what you're doing to me right now?!” She angrily yelled while looking at me with anger, gritting her teeth from the pain around her legs that still oozing blood after they were shot by an arrow.“Pfft...”Hermione looked at Mia, and couldn't help but laugh to the point that she was almost in tears.“Oh my god, why are you so funny?” Hermione said while laughing, holding her stomach. “Why don't you try being a clown? For sure, you will earn a lot of money if you do so. After all, that's where you belong.”Mia's eyes turned red from anger. She gritted her teeth, enduring the pain around her legs, and forcibly took off the arrow and stood up, raising her hands as she was about to use them to stab Hermione.However, how could Yves let her do so?Despite that, he looked timid and
HERMIONE'S POVI let out a sneer as I happened to see Mia, who had a pitiful and innocent expression plastered on her fake face while facing Benjamin, my ‘good’ brother, who was deeply hurt by Reo, who happened to hear my conversation with Mia.Of course, it was all deliberate.It was all part of the plan.After all, Reo wasn't the type who would let his prey escape.It's because I instructed him to let Benjamin go after I gave my signal.After all, once Benjamin was let go, he would, for sure, go back to his home, to his place where his mate, Mia, is.So the moment I was provoki—I mean, talking with Mia earlier, I had already noticed Benjamin's presence.I saw Yves kept looking at me keep the corner of his eyes, making me look at him and I couldn't help but ask him.“Is there something wrong?”Yves' cheeks reddened and he immediately bowed his head, hiding from my gaze while he was fidgeting.“W...Well, a-are we going to go back without doing something to the two of them?” Yves asked
HERMIONE'S POVBefore I could send him towards Mia, Phoenix had already wrapped his arms around my waist, possessively locking me in his embrace as he buried his face around my neck.I could feel his intimidating aura, but it wasn't targeted at me.“I was just kidding, okay? I wasn't really going to see that, Mia. I don't even care if she's alive or not. If you hadn't mentioned her, I would have already forgotten about her.” He softly said while raising his head, forcing me to look up at him.I just stared at him and didn't say anything.Seeing that I didn't say anything, he let out a helpless sigh as his hand reached out, touching my chin as he looked at me straight into my eyes.“My mind was filled with you, all alone, so how could I have the time to think of an insignificant person?” He gently said, and his eyes were looking at me with seriousness that if I would retort again or not believe him, he would use other means to prove it to me.When I saw his face enlarged in my eyes, I
HERMIONE'S POVI glanced at Vincent, who was being dragged by Reo on his collar while, on the other hand, I was being carried by Phoenix—more like he just moved me away from Vincent who was about to hug us.However, Vincent didn't pay attention to the minor details and glanced at us with bright eyes as if he had just bought his toy for him.“I finished my task! I burned all of their places just like what they did to your basement!” He excitedly said while the corner of his lips curved up.I let out a soft chuckle upon seeing the way he looked.“I know, I saw it. Thank you for your hardwork, Vincent.” I said with a smile on my face and also looked at the two who hard looking at us.“It's also for the two of you. Thank you for doing a good job, Reo and Yves!” I said while giving them a warm smile.Yves's cheeks reddened and he slyly bowed his head, Reo just nodded his head and didn't say anything, while Vincent was the most energetic among them and he started to elaborate on what happen
THIRD PERSON'S POV“It's all to intimidate our relationship, Honey! Don't listen to that woman! Your sister! She was only here to break us apart!” Mia exclaimed while holding the wrist of her mate while looking at him desperately.Benjamin looked down at Mia and let out a sneer. “Can you even explain your words and actions clearly admitting to the fact that you are still in love with that fucking Alpha King?!”He added while hissing in anger. “You even made it seem like you were regretting being with me! If you're already tired of me, just tell me and we can part ways—”“No, no, no! I'm not going to break up with you! I don't regret being with you! I told you, it's because of your sister! She was the one who was trying to ruin our relationship!” Mia desperately clung onto Benjamin and her eyes were bloodshot while looking at him.She doesn't want to break up with him, she does wants to leave him.If he left, who would be the person who cleans the house, washes the dishes, goes hunt fo
THIRD PERSON'S POVIn the bright starry night, a vague feature of a woman had been reflected in the moonlight.Her cheeks were rosy, yet her complexion was pale. It was as pale as a sheet of paper, as if someone had just drained her blood, all except for her cheeks.Bullets of sweat had formed on her forehead and her brows were furrowed.Her eyelashes trembled and became moist as she struggled to open her eyes trying to get out of her nightmare.Her hands clenched tightly on the bedsheet, the veins on her hands became visible as she let out a muffled groan.Yet, just like before, she couldn't open her eyes.This woman who was suffering from her nightmare right now, was none other than Hermione.No one else had noticed her struggle, not even Phoenix.It was all because Hermione was covered by a black mist as she was transported into an unknown eerie place where she was being laid onto a cold square of cement with skulls and a warm shade of light that had reflected on her skin.The smel
