Lycan king's substitute breeder novel Chapter 14

Oregon

I watched stylishly as Vivian ate like she had not eaten for days. I guess she was really hungry.

"This is very tasty. I've never eaten anything like this before," she said.

"You come from this pack, I suppose?" I asked, shaking a piece of meat on my fork before putting it in my mouth.

A brief silence filled the air, and I looked at her, wondering why she had not replied.

"Ye…Yes," she stammered, giving a weak smile.

"What about your family?" I asked, curious to learn more about her.

"I'm an orphan," she said quickly, her smile fading.

I looked at her, and her smile turned into a sad one. "No, I'm fine.. It's been long that they died"

"Have you been taking care of yourself all this while?" I asked curiously.

"Not exactly. My aunt and her family have been taking care of me, but they don't really see me as a part of their family," she answered.

"Do you want to stop talking about them?" Vivian asked gently.

"Okay then." I replied.

We ate quietly, and when we were done, the servants came in to clear everything away. We went back to the bedroom, and Vivian sat on the sofa.

"Mind if I turn on the TV?" she asked, glancing at the black plasma TV beside her.

"Sure, go ahead. I'm not a big fan of noise, so I'll leave you to it," I said and started to stand up.

"Wait!" Vivian cried out suddenly, reaching for my arm and looking at me intently.

"Where are you going?" she asked.

"I'll be right back," I said, but she didn't release my arm. Instead, she held on to it even more tightly.

"No," she whispered, shaking her head. "Tell me where you're going. I hate being alone here. I don't want to be by myself. What if your mother comes?"

"Why? Are you scared of her?" I asked.

"No!" She retorted, "Why would I be scared of my mother-in-law?"

"Mother in law?" I frowned, my brows furrowed. My voice was dark and angry.

"Huh" She mumbled, confused by my sudden change in demeanor.

"Just so you know, my mother is not your mother-in-law, and we won't be related in any way. You're just here to breed, and that's all. The only reason I'm letting you stay in my room is because you seem strangely familiar. The moment I remember where I met you, I'll have you thrown out of my room, and if you cross me, I'll kick you out of this mansion." I spoke through clenched teeth, my words hot and full of anger.

"I'm so sorry. Please forgive me for my thoughtlessness." Vivian looked down at the floor, her eyes glistening with tears.

I let out a frustrated snarl and left the room, slamming the door so hard that it made a loud bang. I could hear her mumbling in tears, but I didn't care.
