Sylvia's POV:

Ellis's questions confirmed my guess. It seemed that Ashley, the vampire slaves in Geoffrey's pack, was indeed Ashley Maurice, the youngest daughter of the Maurice clan.

However, the scariest part was these vampires knew about it --1 could tell it from their reaction.

They knew the truth but seemed to have turned a blind eye to it, leaving Ashley to suffer all alone. Moreover, they might even be the chief culprit who had put Ashley into such a situation.

"I don't know what you're saying." I smiled at Ellis, pretending not to know anything.

Ellis's eyes widened; she revealed her fangs to frighten me. "Enough. Stop pretending. If you don't know Ashley, why would you ask about her when you simply saw the name in your room? You paid attention only because you knew her, didn't you? And you are a werewolf. You must be aware of what happened in your territory."

I didn't expect her to be so smart. I stopped smiling and stared at her intently. "Yes, I did see her. But what's the big deal?"

"Nothing. I just want to tell you not to meddle in other people's business. It's not your problem. Do you understand?" warned the gold-haired male vampire sitting beside Ellis.

He looked handsome with dazzling eyes that glistened with tenderness.

"If you insist on interfering with other people's business, then don't blame us for the consequences."

Ignoring the male vampire's threat, I picked up a spoonful of mango mousse and put it into my mouth. "If you don't want others to find out something, then don't do it. You make mistakes yet aren't ready to face the outcomes. It looks like you have a guilty conscience."
