21: Hopes in Lies
Helion looked at me darkly. He showed no emotion so I was wondering what he was thinking. I realized he really changed a lot. It’s obvious in the way he looks, in the way he moves. He has good looks back then, I admit, but now… well, I guess maturity can do a lot of things to a person.
“Go back,” he demanded coldly. “I don’t accept disciples.”
No way. you should accept me!
I looked at him with challenging eyes. There’s no way I will let him win this game. I will insist until he accepts me. I can’t just go back, can I? This is my place after all. The place I built on my own, so how the hell did he have the right to make me leave like he didn’t owe his life from me?
I wanted to blurt all those things to him but I know I should calm myself because if I won’t, I’d just ruin the pretense and it won’t do good to me. I should be patient as of the moment so that when time comes that I

The Demoness Alpha 22: The Plan: Make Him Fall
So the plan is… gain Helion’s trust while I’m regaining my power and plot things behind his back so that when time comes that I will be the alpha again, everything will go smoothly as I planned. I will also take the opportunity to know all his secrets, his weaknesses so that I would have something to use against him. I will also try to have people while I’m pretending as an innocent disciple. And one more thing… Should I flirt with him and make him fall in love with me so that it’s easier to stay by his side? Think of it. if I can easily make it by his side, and stay for a long time without him doubting me, making that move is the key right? Right. I guess that way is easier. Because as I can observe right now, Helion is very cold and aloof to the people, especially to me. He’s even so indifferent to that female subordinate of his when it’s pretty obvious that she has feelings for him. That’s why if I can make it to his heart, he would trust me and it’s easie
The Demoness Alpha 23: Burning Darkness
After years, I finally picked a dress to wear at Jacob’s birthday celebration. Even though I was never feminine nor the every man’s ideal woman, I know that as Nadia, I have a face of a beauty. Everyone knows that, but no man dared to hit me because of one fact: I am the most powerful living woman across all packs. They are too scared to try. I’m glad no one did though. Not because I’m not a fan of love, but that time up to this moment, I have more important things to deal with than finding myself a suitable man. besides… I don’t want to make a mistake again when it comes to trusting people.I glared at the female commandant when I saw her outside my chamber. She glared back at me and was obviously about to say something but I walked past her and went straight to Helion’s chamber. The hell I care with that woman. She is one of those people that I should ignore. Poor worthless beings.“Alpha?” I sat on the waiting a
The Demoness Alpha 24: Beautiful Death
“Alpha!” someone yelled outside the east manor that caught everyone’s attention.We went to see and I was shocked when I saw that there’s a man outside and another man who’s carrying a lifeless woman. My forehead creased. What the hell is happening?Death.Something I never feared of. But at that moment, for the first time, I got scared. I wasn't scared of my own death, but for his - my uncle.Sometimes I think, why are we even born when at the end, we'd just all die? I always wonder why beautiful things tend to end tragically. Just like life. No matter how beautiful your journey was, you'd still end up taking that one, narrow path that leads to one destination. Death.They say, it's not the end that matters. What's important is what your journey entails. The moments you shared with your loved ones, the smiles and laughs you spent with them, and all the things you experienced.Standing on the rooftop of the hosp
The Demoness Alpha 25: Dark Illusions
Illusion.Yes. That was it. All of that is not true. Maybe it was the product of stress and too much frustration. It can't be possible, I said to myself when I woke up on my bed the next day.I remember everything that happened on the rooftop. What the man said and what I saw in his eyes. I also remembered how Nari came and called me. And the next second, the stranger disappeared on thin air as if he wasn't even there. Nari didn't even see him. So, I thought everything that happened was just an illusion.Maybe Uncle's situation triggered something in my head. I got a trauma long time ago, so maybe that is the reason why hallucinations resurfaced again.I got up despite the weight of the body. I bathed and got dressed. I'm going to the hospital to replace Nari in taking care of Uncle.Nari is a close friend. She just forced me to go home last night to rest. I didn't agree at first, but thinking about all those strange things I saw, I thought I really needed t
The Demoness Alpha 26: Between Life and Death
"Eat well. I know you didn't eat last night and this morning. Tell me, how are you going to take care of Uncle if you get sick?" Nari raised a brow at me.She's right. I can't be sick. So I tried to get that man out of my mind. I'm sure if I'll just ignore it, the hallucination will soon stop."By the way. Will you stay with your job on the ship? I remember it's tomorrow?" Nari asked while we were eating.I nodded. "I need extra money. Uncle has insurance but there are still a lot of expenses."Today is the first day of the semester break and whenever there is no class, I do side hustles to help Uncle with all our bills.He's just a regular employee in a company and he's been providing for us since day one, and it became harder now that I am left with all the responsibilities. I need to provide for our necessities, save for my tuition fee next semester, and pay our rent. More reasons to work."But you don't have to watch here all day. I'll be back the other day."
The Demoness Alpha 27: Mad and Dangerous
Insanity. That's how probably how other people would see what I've just done. I made a deal with a deity. I've promised to give him my life. I couldn't even believe it myself.But then, thinking about what he can do for me, I guess it's worth it, right? How am I going to continue my life without Uncle, anyway? I don't think I can do it. I don't think I can live my life to its fullest if he dies when I know that I could have done something but chose not to. Uncle has been selfless ever since the day he decided to raise me. How can I be selfish?One month. At least he gave me one month."Did you hear the doctor, Jace? Did you hear him?" Nari said in disbelief. Even I couldn't believe it myself. The doctor just said that a miracle happened and everything is fine with my uncle now.I looked over Nari's shoulder and found Helion leaning on the wall at the far corner of the hallway. He smirked and winked at me.I immediately knew. He did it. He really is a deity.
The Demoness Alpha 28: He's Filthy Rich
The man's hand on my arm immediately fell. They stepped back but stopped when continuous thunders echoed in the sea. I got startled too, but I stood still on my position and fixed my eyes on the man in front. He's just standing there, no weapons, and eyes glowing in the midst of darkness. He didn't just look dangerous. He looked lethal. The look in his eyes screamed bloodshed. The thought of what he could do in anger made me shiver.Even if I've only known him for a few days, I know what he's capable of doing. He can save someone in the brink of death, but he can also send someone in hell. He's ruthless and only cares for his own benefit, but at that moment, I was thankful that he came. Even if he's just doing this because he wants me alive until that time, I felt warmth for some reason.I'm going crazy, I think. Who knows he's the one causing all these troubles, right? What if all the misfortunes happening to me is because he is around me."They hit you?" Helion aske
The Demoness Alpha 29: The Other Life
Staring at my reflection on the mirror, unconsciously, I smiled. I reached for the comb and gently combed the straight hair. That was beyond my chest.The natural brown color of my hair complimented my brown almond eyes and fair complexion. It didn't make me look like my mother, though. She's tanned and has black eyes. That said, I inherited it from Dad. Based on the pictures I saw of him before, I think it's true. My father has a british blood. He's fair and has brown eyes, too.After combing, I applied light lipstick to the lip. With my sky blue off shoulder dress, I was satisfied with my look for the night."Kaia, are you done?" Brenda shouted outside my room.I would have said I was done but I stopped without telling him to enter. Her lips formed a little 'o' after looking at me from head to toe. I was shaken."Nice!""Stop me, Brenda," I scolded her once taking off my flat sandals there in the old cabinet."The prize is bigger no
