ISIDORA
Their eyes had the feverish gleam of women half-mad with admiration.
“Lady Isidora, why don’t you join our team?” a redheaded girl asked.
“Hey, Zara, your team already has three Estingias!”
“Estela’s not competing, what’s your problem? Let go of me. Of course I want Lady Isidora’s advice…”

“I’ll pay you to be on my team…” Another one offered me money, and that was when I really started to feel uncomfortable.
Honestly, this was turning into a whole new headache. I didn’t want to team up with anyone, but it was clearly unavoidable.
“How pathetic. You’re ridiculous.” Suddenly, the sound of footsteps cut through the hallway, followed by Arlene’s biting
voice.
“Have you really gotten so desperate you’re begging… her?” The look she fixed on me was pure disgust and contempt.
A few of the Estingias lowered their heads, embarrassed. It was obvious that if they weren’t desperate to get out of the rut they were stuck in, they never would’ve bothered with me.
“That’s easy for you to say, Arlene. You just got into this rank. You have no idea how frustrating it is not to activate your seal. I’ve already gone through three damn useless slaves who were good for absolutely nothing!”
One of them snapped, and the others nodded, throwing Arlene resentful looks.
“Not everyone has the resources of an Alpha father and a rich pack behind her…”

The Estingias around her backed off too. At the end of the day, all of us here were at the very bottom of the power chain.
They were looking at someone behind me, and I didn’t need to turn around to know it was Blaze.
I’d felt him all along, leaning in the shadows by the corner. Now that intense aura of his had risen behind me, tall and solid at my back.
“You can’t… you can’t hurt us or it’ll be the end of you…” Arlene stammered, obviously remembering how her last slave’s head had rolled.
I could picture the murderous look Blaze must’ve been giving her.
With a show of confidence I’d never had before, I took a step back until my body was pressed against his broad, muscular chest.
I lifted my hand and started stroking his muzzle while Blaze lowered his head, pretending to be docile, pretending he was completely at my mercy.
“Lucky, you say?” I looked at her with a mocking smile, every bit as full of contempt as hers had been. “What I see is a
