Chapter 216: Being Watched (2)
Inez wondered what this gift was that Carlos spoke of so highly. It seemed like the gift that Nyx had arranged for
Morrineth was nothing simple; she then thought of the aromatherapy system that she had brought for the
woman in the hope that she would stay in a better mood all day long. It seemed like she was about to get
severely outshone later on, not that she had any hope of making that woman happy.
Nyx, on the other hand, smiled at the man, quite happy with the attention and the words that he had said to her.
She said to him, "You better stay the night, Carlos. | don’t want anything going wrong with the gift, you know,
with how things could turn out badly later on. You can go back once my mom has opened the gift. That way you
can stay here and attend the party; you know how much Kill despises having people from the council in the
territory."
Carlos smiled without showing any hint of irritation.
Realising that the two would have enough fun with their company alone, Inez turned on her feet and walked out
of the building.
Once she left, Carlos, who was staring at her with a look of adoration earlier, scoffed. He turned to look at Nyx
and then offered her a sweet, simpering smile. "Who was the woman from earlier? Why were you standing with a
latent of all people, Nyx?"
"Isn’t it amusing to be kind to those who would die for just a shred of kindness?" Nyx asked with a smile on her
lips. Her eyes then went around the perimeter of the building, and she glanced at the truck that was standing at
the end of the path. "I hope the goods are in order? Even if that thing is old and used... | would expect nothing
less than the finest experience."
Carlos smiled back at the woman before saying to her, "You don’t need to worry about it, Nyx. | told you... Even if
| have to do something illegal, | will make sure that you get what you want without a hitch. Thus, you don’t need
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto worry about anything."
Upon hearing the words of the man, Nyx smiled sweetly. She could almost imagine the look of surprise on the
face of her mother when she would see her gift. And the thought alone filled her with glee as she started to
anticipate the tof the party because there were things that she was looking forward to happening. Firstly,
she had arranged a super rare gift for her mother that should make her mother look at her differently. Secondly,
Selene—she would definitely wear the dress that she had given to her, and even if she didn’t, then she would
wear something that was old and out of fashion. The thought of others looking at Selene like that and mocking
her brought a smile to Nyx’s face.
The only flaw was Inez; if she had known that the woman would snatch the attention that belonged to her, she
would have thought of a way to handle her as well but then again, she was a latent. With her identity as troubled
as that, what could that woman even do?
She commanded Carlos, "Take the gift inside the warehouse; make sure that no one touches it unless it's me.
Even my brother is not allowed to take a look at what is inside the box. Do you understand?"
"As you command, Nyx," said the man as he leaned down and pecked her on the cheek. "I will wait for you at the
splace; make sure to come, alright? | will be waiting for you."
Inez, who had stepped out, reached her lodge in a matter of a few troubled minutes, as the weather had turned
gloomy and raindrops the size of pearls were coming down from the sky. She covered her head and descended
down the path that was covered with moss and pebbles while smiling stiffly.
Upon arriving in her lodge, she couldn't help but take a look at her reflection in the glass panes of the door. Her
reflection looked fine; if she was not feeling nervous, she would have thought that she looked just fine.
But something about the incoming
trouble made her feel nervous. Not to
mention that her ex-mate was going

And there was this feeling like someone was watching her all the time. She turned and looked behind her, but
there was absolutely nothing that was standing behind her, and yet the prickling sensation was only getting
more and more intense. It made her feel jumpy and troubled and annoyed.
"Fuck," Inez cursed as she ran her
