21. "The Beast that lies Beneath."

Liam's POV I have told Sophie not to visit my house anymore. We can't be too carefree. The last thing I want to imagine is that Naya is the person who broke into my house and took the clothes out in the mud.I've made investigations and found that she was at her family house during the rain, and she had spent the night there because she forgot her key at the office.Given that, then the criminal must be someone else. I have to be extremely careful.The car in front of me finally moves and I heave off a sigh. Traffic jams have never been a characteristic of Sacramento, but lately it has been the most constant topic on the news.I get a call from the boss and I put my phone in my ear and listen after greeting him.“Good news, Liam,” he says and my heart elates.“You see, the blood of the moon goddess’ golden daughter has proven to be a very powerful substance,” he adds. “The physician has been able to make drugs out of it that can be used to maintain my daughter's health.”“Wow! That's

22. A fucking genius!

Naya's POVThe aromas of a hot breakfast covers the dining table as Tricia and I come to join Reilly. Her wonderful cooking skills are what she inherited from our late mum.As the elder one, I was a bit too attached with my dad that I barely made time to enter the kitchen. I always told him that he didn't need a son to replace him as I'd train and become strong enough to be the next Alpha.Tricia's is Reilly’s roommate, but their bond has grown beyond that since two years now. They're the best buddies even though Tricia is from a different pack.My phone vibrates on the table and I snatch it, apologizing hastily for the disturbance.There's a message on my phone and I open it to see, “Your application for the Krishna Fashion Design Contest has been approved!”I let out a scream immediately and cup my lips when I realize that I just snapped.Reilly's fingers slip off her spoon. Her eyes are wide with curiosity. “What is it, Naya?”Before I can say a word, she sneaks up behind me and pee

23. Thank You For The Food.

Liam's POV I watch the clock as the long hand finally meets twelve while the short one rests still on eight. I bought drumsticks and coke for dinner.That's my go-to meal whenever I'm indecisive about what to eat.I settle on my dining table and close my eyes.“Thank you for the food,” I mutter in prayer to the moon goddess.Finally taking a break from the hunt for Naya's blood is a big relief. I want the bigger one, though.I take a crunchy bite off one of the drumsticks. Yummy as ever. I might get another bucket when driving past that junk shop tomorrow. There's a soft knock on the door and my mouth stops moving. I swallow a half-chewed load of chicken. “Who is it by this time of the night?” I grumble, dragging my feet lazily to the door.I'm not in the mood to receive guests. I'm the guest of myself tonight, so everyone else should fuck off.I pull the door open and my eyes settle on Sophie's figure. She’s standing under the florescent light of my front door, her two hands holdin

24. Missed you more.

Naya's POVI don't know what led me into telling Rowan about the anonymous group, but I guess it wasn't a mistake. I'm smiling at the text message he sent me.“I knew he'd approve of it,” Elsie says to me. “What a special human he is.”“I know, right. I heard things like this do happen during these competitions,” I say. “If the group is looking to invest in me, then they've found the right place.”I flag a taxi down and settle into the soft cushion of the back seat as he drives me to the office. I'm early today, much more than other days.There's only a few people in the general compartment as I walk through, and none of them is yet to start working on their designs.I unlock the door. Sophie isn't here yet.Well, it will give me more room to focus on doing what is important to me.I have to respond to the anonymous group.It takes roughly quarter an hour crafting a good response. And by the time I'm done, I send it to Reilly to read and make any suggestions. She's a really smart girl

25. That's my puppet.

Liam's POV“Would you like anything?” Naya asks as I settle down on her sofa.I let out a sigh. “Not really.”“I'll get you a glass of water,” she suggests. “You look exhausted.”I sigh yet again and glance at her. “You're quite right about that. I'd appreciate the glass of water, please.”“Alright, darling,” she says with a smile and heads off to the the kitchen.I adjust myself on the sofa. I hope she won't be display much drama when I finally let her know why I'm here.That dream of hers is going to be torn apart. I know it will hurt, but she's my puppet and is going to do whatever pleases me.She returns with a glass of water and drops it on the table before me, then she sits on the sofa that faces mine.I shoot a gaze at her and tap on the space beside me, inviting her to sit there.“Oh sorry.” She stands up quickly and skids over to my side.Sinking into the sofa, she exhales softly and looks at me, but looks away immediately.I'm taken aback by that single act. It hasn't always

26. "Hey Baby!"

Naya's POV Round my eyes hurt so bad as I turn one more time on the pillow to glance at the clock. All through last night, I cried in my bed like a baby with no one to console it.A frustrated sigh leaves my mouth when I realize that it's past eleven on the clock. There's ten missed calls from my Reilly and three from my boss.I grumble as I get up from the bed and slide into my slippers. The first thing I do is take a few tablets of Aspirin before I rush into the bathroom to have my bath.Last night is still heavy on my mind. I never saw it coming that yesterday would end horribly for me.It feels like time has just slowed down as cold water sprays all over my body under the shower.Why am I even bathing? I wonder. I'm already late for work and it's not like there's some special reasons why I must be present there today.I sit on the toilet and bury my head into my thighs. I'm exhausted. I feel so down. Maybe I should just step down from the competition and rest my bones. Maybe I ju

27. So sweet of you...

Naya's POVThe brown office table vibrates with a call on my phone.When I look at the phone and see that it is Rowan, a smile crosses my lips. My shipments have arrived.“Um… Mrs Yorke,” he utters in a polished baritone, “I don't want to believe it, but a delivery truck is standing right before my abode looking for a certain Mrs Naya Sinclair.”“It's mine,” I respond, my lips drawing into a smile. “Sorry I didn't inform you beforehand.”“No, no, no… It's fine,” he says. “I just wanted to be sure that it's my wife's and not someone else’s.”“Really? That's so sweet of you, Rowan,” I coo.“Sure.”“Uhm… Try to come over as soon as possible” he adds.“I will,” I promise. “I'll be there in an hour.”“Alright. See you then.”I round up the leave permit and email it to the boss. She didn't come to the office today, but I'm sure she'll get the email any time soon.I board a taxi to Rowan's place, but first, we stopped at my apartment and I packed a few corporate dresses. Om the way to Rowan'

28. Are we celebrating something?

Liam's POV My ringtone now feels like a nightmare whenever I hear it. I barely slept for two hours last night. And now, it's ringing again, piercing through my brain and driving me to the edge of insanity.Reilly Sinclair!I know it's her and no one else. It has already gotten beyond frustrating, but I'm holding myself back from unleashing my rage on her.I have no bloody idea where her sister has been for the past two days. I've searched, I've asked her friends… No single one has a bloody idea where she is.I'm not going to kill myself in the name of finding her. I can only hope that nothing bad happens to her cause I'm not done with her. We are not done with her.Tomorrow, the second phase of the Krishna Fashion Design Contest begins. The instructions are going to be emailed to the contestants tonight. Sophie told me that.I hop down from my bed and go straight to the floor.

29. She looks so nervous.

Naya's POV The event hall is huge, occupied with over two hundred participants and six judges standing on the stage.The giant door opens and I see Sophie walking in with her racks carried by one of the event attendants.She looks so nervous, but I don't give a damn what she looks like.She's seated two spaces away from me and I pray other contestants would come and fill up those spaces so I don't get to see even her shadow.Thirty minutes go buy before the door closes. “It's 10:30am on the dot,” one of the judges announces as the door closes. “Any contestant who hasn't entered the hall by now has been ruled out from the contest officially.”A cold chill runs down my spine at those words. They only add to my fear of how strict the judgement standards would be.When I got the email of instructions for the second phase of the contest, I didn't waste a second before going on my fabric hunt.I stayed up, sewing and undoing what I've sewn, styling and restyling my designs. Rowan even got

30. You made us proud.

Naya's POVElsie can't stop jubilating and my eyes just can't stop shedding tears. I can't believe I did it. I got to the final stage of the competition. I'll pray under the moonlight tonight and thank the moon goddess for shining her light on me. I want to jump around everywhere and jubilate, but I know better than to celebrate two early. The competition is more than challenging, it's scary.I came to realise today that there were some people who scored ninety percent in the first phase. The two Osward sisters! Marie and Sharon. They've been fashion designers since birth. All through the second phase today, I never saw anxiety on their faces. It felt like they owned the whole contest.I wonder if I'd be able to lace their shoes in this contest.“Hey.” Someone taps me from behind and I turn to meet Marie.“Hey, you,” I let out nervously, managing a smile.She hugs me tight. “You're truly amazing.” She whispers. “You deserve your win.”“Thanks, Maddie,” I coo, stroking the back of
