Riona POV"Riona, wake up. We're here!"I was awakened by Baron's tap and the sound of the stream at night.  Plus the cold blow of the wind when he opened the car door. I squinted my eyes first before getting off while hugging myself. I was just wearing a summer shirt and skinny jeans, Baron didn't tell me it's quite cold here."C'mon now! Are you cold?" he asked upon walking to my side. As he opened the door, I got out of the car, my hair waved freely from the breeze while I rubbed my arms. Baron immediately put his jacket on my shoulders."Put this on. I didn't know you can't take cold!" he uttered while locking the car doors. I just nodded as my reply."Is this the stream?" I questioned as my curious sight scanned the surroundings. It was almost twilight."Yeah! This is the stream. Matt told me you can't read us if we talk through mind-links. Does that also happen before? Or only here in the human world?" he questioned w

Matthew POV "Riona!" I screamed her name with mixed emotions I couldn't define. Lust?! Maybe! Love?! No way! After releasing my desire, I felt something stirring inside. It was so foreign. So enigmatic. So... "Argh!" so painful that I yelped in pain as I rolled over beside her arching my body like something inside would want to come out but couldn't. It wasn't Argo. I couldn't scent him now. "Matthew!" I heard her call my name but my eyes couldn't see anything except darkness. I could feel my hands were shifting to claws, my head was turning to half-wolf, d*mn it the pain behind my back was ripping me off. I gripped the mattress tearing it with my claws. I gritted my teeth but my mouth was forced to open when my fangs came out. "Matthew, are you shifting now?" Riona questioned, her voice was trembling but h*ck I couldn't see her. What's the matter with me? "Get out, Riona! I don't wanna hurt you. Get out!" I growled in a human voice as I fell viol

Riona POV It's just another day! However, it was not the same as before. I got used to my routine though, waking up early to prepare for my master's breakfast. But this time, it's totally different. I was coldly stirring the soup. I cooked the omelette with no vigor. I set the table as it had been my ritual every morning. I prepared his meal as dead as a doornail. "Good morning, Riona! Are these all for Matt?" when his uncle came to the dining room wearing a suit looked like going somewhere. "Good morning! Yes, I always do this for him every morning!" I plastered a shallow smile. "Since he can't really eat them all, please have some bite!" and also continued when I saw him just staring at the food. "That's very sweet of you, Riona. You can feed him soup. For the moment, that's the only meal he can swallow!" Baron told me upon sitting and began cutting the omelette in a half. "By the way, where is King Victor?" I questioned when I couldn't find him. Since

Riona POVI held the roof handle tightly as I shifted my anxious glance at the king who was holding the steering wheel, smiling. If I knew he wasn't driving at all. "Alpha King, I think we should go back. Master Matthew talked to me in my thoughts. He's ordering us to go back!" I stuttered, obviously, I was scared of the outcome of stealing his car."Don't be scared, Riona. I will protect you. By the way, as an Alpha King, I don't follow orders to anyone!" he smugly told me and even winked."But we are not in our world and what if he will call the authority, I mean the cops. King Victor, can we just go ba~"My worried statement was interrupted by a siren behind us. When we glanced at the rearview mirror, we saw a car with blinking red and blue lights on its roof. We glanced at each other wondering what that was."What's that?" King Victor asked while squinting his eyes on the outside mirror."I don't know. It's my first time seeing that kind of car!" I repl

Riona POV"What did you do to Master Matthew's room?" Sonia asked me with her usual madam aura voice but I just raised my eyebrow while staring at the furniture. I turned around and faced her, ambled a little bit closer, and moved my head to her shoulder, sniffing her scent. She was startled and stepped back, eyes expressing anxiety and worries."What do you think you're doing, slave?" her gaze became wide."How did you do that? How did you deceive them? They're three in the mansion and they didn't notice you? They didn't scent you?" I questioned rather making her feel uneasy and terrified."I don't know what you're talking about!" she exclaimed as I stepped forward while she moved back her hands groping the door behind her. My head tilted from left to right while my sharp gaze was glued to her. "You think you can fool me, witch!" my voice came out like a clap of thunder and her ears fluttered while her hands gripped the door frame."Leave me alone!" she f
