Chapter 274 Dead Broke
Chapter 274 Dead Broke
Third–person POV:
After Morgana fell asleep, Laila gave Gracie a few more instructions before leaving.
She had planned to ask about Freya, but it seemed better to wait until Morgana recovered.
As she walked toward the small lounge, she heard Stick’s shocked voice from inside.
“Oh, by the Moon, Your Highness, are you saying you want me to stay at Frostwind Pack and work for you?”
Stick?
Why was he still here? And why was he planning to stay and work?
Laila paused briefly. Logically, he should have gone back to Moonlight Academy with his teacher and the others.
She stepped in just in time to hear Stick continue, “So, how much are you paying me a month?”
+10 Free Coins
Samuel stayed quiet, but Luke answered from the side. “Don’t worry. You won’t be treated badly. Just do your job well and train the new guards for the den. If you do well, there will be bonuses.”
Stick disliked vague answers, so he pushed further. “So, how much exactly?”
Luke raised one finger. “This much.”
At that moment, Stick only wanted to smack Luke with a stick. Could he not just say the number? Why make him guess?
“Just say if you’re joining or not!” Samuel said.
“I’m in!” Stick agreed right away. At worst, he could ask Laila later about the exact pay.
Either way, he took the job.
He was already a senior, basically done with his studies at Moonlight Academy, and it was time to start earning.
So after returning with his teacher, he had come right back.
He was an orphan. If his teacher had not taken him in and brought him to Moonlight Academy, he might have starved long ago, long before awakening his Alpha wolf spirit.
Because of that, he cared deeply about money.
He wanted to earn a lot for his teacher and his many siblings. His teacher loved taking in strays, so he had many brothers and sisters with no blood ties.
They were close. Some were strong, some weak, but they all shared one thing.
They were completely broke!
Especially this time, when they came to support Laila at her mating ceremony, they had spent nearly all their money on clothes and gifts.

So he chose to work for Samuel.
First, he needed the income. Second, he admired Samuel and wanted to follow him.
And also, he could keep an eye on him.
If Samuel ever dared to mistreat Laila, he would call everyone and beat Samuel up together!
Seeing his agreement, Samuel smiled. “Good. You don’t need to handle recruitment. Just train them well.”
He noticed Laila walking in and smiled at her.
Laila returned the smile. “You’re recruiting guards?”
Samuel nodded. “When I led troops before, I had no time for this. Now I do.
“Besides, Morgana is staying here. Guards will make things safer.”
“Mm,” Laila responded. “How many are you hiring?”
“Five hundred,” Samuel said. “Any more is not allowed.”
The laws of the Rydar Kingdom limited an Alpha’s den to five hundred guards.
Before Laila could reply, Stick asked again, “Five hundred people? How long will that take?”
Luke answered, “Not long.”
“And I still get paid during that time, right?” Stick asked.
