Alpha Damien’s Trouble Maker Novel

Chapter 130 Chapter 130 Evelyn "Evelyn, do you know how to trap a wild animal?" ས 83 55 vouchers Lady Selene had asked that casually back then, her tone light as she chewed on the nuts I had brought earlier, looking far too relaxed for such a strange question. I remember turning to look at her, confused, and answering honestly, "A wild animal?" "Yes, a wild animal." She nodded as if it were the most natural thing in the world. I frowned slightly and shook my head. "Isn't it dangerous?

I've heard many people have lost their lives trying to catch onc.) The wild animals in the Mooncrest pack aren't like ordinary ones, they're stronger, and more vicious." Lady Selene had only shaken her head, popping another nut into her mouth before replying calmly, "It's actually quite easy. You just have to learn and follow a few steps." I laughed, unable to take it seriously. "My lady, I don't need to learn something like that. I'll never come into contact with a wild animal." "Everyone comes into-contact with a wild animal at least once in their life, Evelyn. Sometimes it's in the forest.

Sometimes it's at home. You can never be too careful, and I won't always be there to help you deal with it. You have to learn how to protect yourself." At the time, I hadn't understood what she meant. How could a wild animal exist inside a home? But now, standing here and looking at Arthur and Emily, I finally understood. Wild animals didn't always have fur or claws. Sometimes, they wore human faces. If I hadn't been careful, I would have fallen straight into their trap. The necklace Emily kept was in my room, but they wouldn't find it now, because it was no longer there.

I glanced to the side and met Maya's gaze. Lady Selene's new servant stood quietly by the door, watching everything unfold. She gave a subtle nod, and I returned it, a faint smirk curling on my lips. Earlier, the moment I saw the look on Emily's face, I had known she was planning something. She must have deliberately placed the necklace in my room, intending to frame me. I was still thinking of how to deal with it, because I couldn't simply leave and remove it myself, when I noticed Maya among the crowd. That was when I deliberately mentioned my room, loud enough for her to hear.

She understood immediately. Maya went ahead of us and removed the necklace before we arrived. Lady Selene had been wise to accept her as a servant. It was almost as if she had foreseen that a day like this would come, and that we would need someone else we could trust completely. Emily's face darkened instantly, like a child whose toy had been snatched away. Her cheeks flushed red with fury as she spat, "You bitch! How dare you!" I smiled calmly, shrugging as if this were nothing more than a minor inconvenience. "You don't need to look so disappointed, Emily.

Did you really think that just because Lady Selene isn't here, you could do whatever you wanted?" I took a small step forward. "Well, you're wrong. I won't let you tarnish her image. And when she comes back, we'll see if you still dare to act so high and mighty." 11:29 Wed, Feb 4 Chapter 130 65 vouchers Emily's face drained of color at my words. Fear flickered in her eyes, she was terrified of Lady Selene. She took a step back instinctively, but Arthur stepped forward instead, placing himself in front of her.

He looked at me and smiled, "You're really as cunning as your master, you know." I looked at him, and no matter how much time passed, I knew I would never forget the way his fists had come down on Silas that day. Even though Arthur had later been beaten within an inch of his life, that memory was carved too deeply into me. Every time I saw his face, the urge to claw it apart rose in my chest, especially knowing how he always looked at Lady Selene with that disgusting, hungry gaze, as if she were something he could one day claim. I forced myself to breathe and swallow that rage down and said.

"Look who's talking." Arthur didn't get angry. Instead, he smiled. "But you're still a thief," he said lightly. "And thieves need to be punished." My brows furrowed in frustration. "A thief?" I shot back. "How many times do I have to tell you that I didn't steal anything? You didn't even see me steal anything." He tilted his head slightly, his eyes dropping to my hands, and then he sneered. "Didn't see you?" he said mockingly. "Then what am I seeing right now? You're holding Lady Sienna's necklace in your hand." My heart lurched violently in my chest.

"What?" I looked down instinctively, and froze. The necklace that lady Selene had given me was still in my palm. My lips parted as I tried to speak. "This is-" Arthur didn't let me finish. "Lady Selene brought it for you? You keep saying that, but how are we supposed to be sure she really did?" He turned his head slightly. "Emily, isn't that Lady Sienna's missing necklace?" Emily hesitated for just a second. She looked at the necklace, confusion flickering across her face as if she wanted to correct him, but then she saw Arthur's expression. She understood what he was getting at.

Her lips curved upward, and she looked at me as though she were already attending my funeral. "Yes," she said sweetly. "You're right. That's the missing necklace Lady Sienna has been searching for." My heart dropped straight into my stomach. Emily folded her arms and tilted her head. "Evelyn, what do you have to say for yourself? You've been caught stealing from a noblewoman. Do you really think you'll survive this?" I took a step back, dread spreading through my veins. I had miscalculated badly. I had underestimated them. They weren't just wild animals playing petty tricks.

They were bloodthirsty predators, the kind that wouldn't stop until their prey was completely destroyed. I looked around desperately. No one spoke, or moved. The other servants avoided my eyes, their faces stiff with fear. Even though they knew this was a trap, not a single one stepped forward to defend me. No one wanted to offend Arthur, Emily, or Lady Sienna. I clenched my fists. I was trapped. There was no way out of this. The only thing that truly hurt, the only regret tightening my chest, was that I wouldn't be able to see my lady one last time. I was just a servant. I knew that.

I didn't deserve to think of Lady Selene as family, and yet to me, she had always been like an older sister. I wanted to see her again. Emily turned to Arthur and said, "You know what to do." WED 11:29 Wed, Feb 4 Chapter 130 Arthur's lips curled into a vicious smirk as he licked them slowly. "Of course," he replied "This will be fun He stepped toward me, his hand reaching back as he unsheathed the sword strapped to his back. The sound of metal scraping against leather echoed in the room.

I moved instinctively just as he took another step, but then, suddenly, a tall figure stepped between us The room froze, everyone froze including me. My breath caught in my throat as my eyes lifted to the familiar broad back now blocking Arthur's path. My heart skipperf violently Arthur's expression darkened the instant he recognized who it was. "What do you think you're doing?" Silas said, his voice deep, and dangerously low as it echoed through the room.

"How many lives do you have to dare touch my mate?" 五 AD Comment Send gift Editorial board Editorial Board: Our editorial team works behind the scenes to refine each chapter, maintain consistency, and deliver the best reading experience.
