The next day.

The broken walls of the Sterling villa were being repaired by workers brought by Dewar. He had been lingering around the villa as he had no other place to go. He started working under Rodnie a month ago in return for protection from the Sehla family.

Amber didn’t stop selling vegetables and fruits despite what had transpired at the villa. Akash also worked hard in the garden as he had been doing everyday.

Shadow had been sitting on the rooftop since his return to the villa. His senses took note of everything crossing the perimeter walls of the villa. Not even an ant or a fly could escape his senses that were spread throughout the villa.

Louis and Bella came up to him from behind. “Can we talk?”

Shadow opened his eyes. “What is it, Gray and Black Ghosts of Phantom Creed?”

“The Phantom Creed we know is dead now that Butcher Bones is dead,” Bella quickly replied. “We’re free now. Radicals, as some prefer to call us.”

“I wouldn’t be so sure if I were you,” Shadow thought bac

    Two days later.Ryan came to the Sterling villa. Mina greeted him with great anticipation. “Did they agree?”“Why would I come here if they did?” Ryan slightly tightened his grip on the walking staff. “Since I’m here, you can go back.” He saw Selena in the distance. She had gotten a nose job and looked like she previously did.Diana Pennell, an old friend of Selena, asked her, “Is it true that your eldest daughter got married like a year ago and you all kept it a secret?”“Haha,” Selena awkwardly laughed. “We have our reasons.”“What reasons?”“I’d rather not talk about them now.”“Then can you tell me why you’re not acting anymore?”“Andrew Sehla,” Selena cursed him with no hesitation. “That old fucker’s making all the producers not approach me. Even the ones I’m close with are avoiding me. My husband is also facing the same issue. We can only be patient and wait for our time. When I get the chance, I’ll dig a dildo down his ass.”Diana was a bit confounded. “Shouldn’t it be ‘shove o

    Diana Pennell didn’t leave the villa. She stayed and kept showering Selena with questions. What happened to Rebecca? What happened to her looks? Her hair? Her physique? And why was she crying like it was the end of the world?Selena came up with a ridiculous story that Benjamin had been making her daughter’s life difficult, and that Rebecca just wanted to talk to him once again so she could decide if she needed to get a divorce or not. Selena thought her ‘little’ story would kill Diana’s curiosity and make her leave, but no. Diana decided to stay for a little longer.Selena wanted someone to take Diana away. She couldn’t bring herself to ask Akash to do it, but then she saw Dewar eyeing Amber, so she told him, “If you remove Diana from the villa, I’ll help you get some points with Amber.”“Deal!” Dewar said and then actively irritated Diana by sticking close with her, making her believe as if he was ‘really’ interested in her. As a married woman with two grown children, she felt anxio

    Ryan didn’t come out of his room, but he was able to hear what most of the people had been speaking within the walls of the villa.Some of them had nothing good to say about Benjamin.From Elizabeth and her mother to Lisa and her brother, they were cursing Benjamin, saying that he was responsible for Rebecca becoming like a beggar. All of them had asked Rebecca to eat or at least get some saline solution into her body, but she refused. Every time she turned down their help, it made them angry.“Where the hell is Benjamin?” Veronica asked her sister. “Tell me. I’ll grab him by the ear and bring him here.”Rebecca was too tired to argue with anybody, so she just stayed silent on the bed, as if she was waiting for the inevitable death.Veronica took her mother out of the dorm building and said, “Mom, if we don’t do anything, she’ll die in a day or two! We should use some sleeping powder or something to knock her out, and then we can treat her.”Selena was pleasantly surprised. “That’s a

Grasses are the people who do their job and move according to the way the world pushes them. Seekers are the religious ones with faith. Fools are the ones who rub themselves and fight and quarrel with others. Donkeys are those who work extra hard for everything. Wolves are those who prey upon the rest be it in groups or alone.

    Rebecca woke up to find herself feeling a bit rejuvenated. She had no idea how long she slept, but it was morning at the time. Selena was sleeping on the only other bed in the dormitory.Though Selena and Veronica had taken away all the clues that might let Rebecca know they injected her with saline solution, they still completely forgot about the band-aid the doctor had stuck at the jabbed spot.Because of this, Rebecca was able to tell that they injected something into her body while she was sleeping. And it infuriated her.Not wanting to stay around her family, she walked out of the villa and hit the road. It was so cold outside with snow everywhere, but she didn’t even have a sweater on.Ryan was observing this from his room. “Where is she going this early in the morning? Mina and Shadow have left. I guess I have to follow her now.”While keeping his distance, Ryan followed her.Rebecca went to what Ryan thought were random places, but he had no clue that she was actually visiting

    More than sixteen years ago.Rye and her friends were skipping in the backyard of her house. Rye reached the thousand mark faster than her friends, and so she won the bet and took the tamarind candy from everyone.The concept of a monetary system didn’t exist in the wolf clan. People just shared things with each other out of goodwill, as overseen by the elders and the city council.So, there was a limit to how much candy the kids could get their hands on. Naturally, the girls didn’t feel good after losing out so much candy to Rye. They drooled as she sucked on the candy.Seeing their pitiful expressions, she shared some of the candy with them. And they all happily sucked on the sour-and-sweet tamarind candy.“Rye has the qualities to become a good lord,” Ryan said. He was drinking grape juice with Rye’s father, Erwin, who was a tall man with a long face. “She’s strong and kind.”“Well, your son is there for that role.”“He’ll be the next sovereign, and your daughter can be the next lo

    “Beat his ass to the ground!”“Break his front teeth! Make him cry!”“No. Tear his loincloth and humiliate him!”Rye’s friends yelled as Rye leaped at Benjamin. Before she could reach him, Neel flashed in her path and slashed his claws at her. But he missed.Neel was startled. (Ducked so fast in midair?)The moment Rye’s left foot landed on the ground, she swiveled and kicked at Neel’s waist. He was too close to dodge in time, but someone else caught her foot and stopped it.To Rye’s surprise, it was Benjamin who effortlessly stopped her kick. (He completely canceled my momentum? Not by blocking but by grabbing?) That explained why there was barely any sound when he stopped her foot.“So soft…” Benjamin kept staring at her foot. “I see no cracks.”Neel also stepped back and took a look. “You’re right. How rare.” Neel went a step further and poked the sole of her feet. “It won’t bleed if we poke it too hard, right?”Rye’s face turned into a ripe tomato at this point because one of her

    “You should enter the med bed and get your knee treated, Rye,” Erwin told his daughter from outside the room. “I’m going out, so take care of yourself.”The sound of Erwin’s footsteps soon faded away.“I’ve been doing that for a very long time,” Rye mumbled and then got up from the bed. “I don’t need the med bed. I slept a few hours, so I’m already fully healed.” She cracked her knuckles. “Now, I just have to find that brat and defeat him, so that I’ll become the Sovereign! As long as I don’t beat him senseless, I think Uncle Ryan wouldn’t get mad at me.”She heard cries from her backyard.“What’s going on?” she swiftly opened the door and rushed out. To her utter bafflement, all of her friends were swooning over Benjamin who looked extremely cute now that his hair was neatly cut. Even Dahlia was pinching his cheeks.Rye’s stomach twisted.“Dahlia!” Rye cried out.But nobody cared.“Dahlia!” she cried out again.This time, Dahlia heard her and hurriedly made her way to Rye who was cle

    Some days later.Sofia Myers ordered pizza from an apartment she had recently bought.And to her surprise, it was Benjamin who delivered it.“It’s you?” Sofia remembered him. “Aren’t you Rebecca’s husband? You both are having an official wedding soon, right? Why are you still working as a pizza-delivery guy?”“I have my reasons,” Benjamin replied. “And it’s more of a part-time job now.”“Okay, come on in,” Sofia told him.When he entered the apartment, there were over a dozen females there, smoking and drinking.“This guy is Benjamin, a mighty pizza-delivery guy who married a bald woman,” Sofia started making fun of him to make her friends laugh.Benjamin quickly countered her, saying, “It seems your husband has left you to your pleasures. I’m not surprised, though I might not have done the same thing.”Sofia gritted her teeth and threw her mobile at him.Benjamin caught it with ease. “A woman who easily gets angry will have a hard time obtaining a place in any man’s heart.”“Get the

No one is stopping you!”Lisa then angrily left the house and walked away on her bare feet, crying and shedding tears.It had been weeks since she had seen her dad, and she just wanted to talk to him once more and know how he was doing, but her mother was not even letting her contact her dad.Lisa didn’t know for how long she walked, but her stomach started growling.It was twelve in the afternoon, and she hadn’t eaten anything.

    In Sciocidad also known as the Sky City.“So she asked for more time…” Ryan sighed.He became the temporary ruler of the Wolfe clan.“Both Benjamin and Rye have left this seat, which is something that never happened before,” Ryan’s voice was gritty yet sad. “This doesn’t set a good example for the coming generations, especially given that we’re living in the end times.”“Don’t tell me, you’re planning on making someone else the sovereign?” Uzza quickly asked.“No, not yet,” Ryan replied. “We’ve lost a lot already. We can’t be wasting our people’s time or give them false hope. It is better to pick a new ruler, but I will wait a little longer.”Even though Ryan didn’t say it, Uzza felt that the time limit would probably be six months.“Come back soon, Rye,” Uzza wished in her heart.Elsewhere in the same city, in a dark dungeon.“With a friend like you around, what’s the need for enemies?” Benyamin was hissing at Dahlia as she poured her spiritual energy into Benyamin’s spine relentles

    A few days later.At six in the morning.Rebecca woke up and found Benjamin resting with his head at her legs. “Benjamin, why are you sleeping the other way? You’re not a cat. Sleep next to me!”Benjamin rolled over to her side and lay next to her, sharing the same pillow. “Last night, I woke up for water, and then I saw the mole on your thigh, and I wanted to sleep next to it.”Rebecca’s face flushed very much. “Stop it, you are talking like a child!”“Aren’t we both still children in our relationship?” Benjamin gently touched her chin and planted a kiss on her cheek.Rebecca’s face gained some more blood. The same could be said for Benjamin. Both of them were fair and were in the prime of their age, so they appeared a thousand times more attractive when blood rushed to their faces.After Benjamin kissed her, Rebecca felt her emotions stirring up again. She pulled the blanket up and covered both of them and hugged him tightly and showered kisses on him.“I think it’s time for breakfa
