Chapter 9
Kenver smirked and she gulped hard. Oh mercies, what has she gotten into? This was the same person she was hoping she could avoid not knowing she was running into his den actually.
“Aren’t you happy to see me huh?” He asked and started walking towards her with each step accelerating her heartbeat.
He had a white towel tied around his waist and water dripped from his hair to his tattooed body. Oh crap, she even had the guts to look at him, gross!
“So you got fired again and had the nerves to come here huh?” He asked and went to stand two inches from where she stood. Leigh-Ann couldn’t help but shiver.
“You got me fired. If you hadn’t come in to disturb my life, I swear, you wouldn’t see my face again” Leigh-Ann fired without knowing where the guts came from. She was still mad at him for how he had ruined her job and so wanted to hit him or kick him but she couldn’t. She’ll only get herself into trouble.
“Too bad Leighie, I’ve seen your face again” He mocked and before she knew it, he pushed me to the bed and climbed up on her.
Leigh-Ann yelled and struggled hard but he was far too powerful for her. He grabbed her chest immediately, making her shiver. God, why was this happening?
She yelled louder when she felt his right hand under her thigh. “Let me go!” She yelled and tried pushing him off but he weighed her down.
“Please… please don’t do this” she begged as tears rolled down the side of her face but Kenver wasn’t listening. Her pleas only sounded like enticing music.
He grabbed her hands and pulled them above my head, his hand holding them down. Leigh-Ann couldn’t imagine he was touching her and she felt so powerless.
The door rang and Kenver heard him groan. He tried to pull down my undies but the door kept ringing repeatedly.
“Goddamn it” He cussed and when Leigh-Ann felt he wasn’t that strong on her, she used all my strength to push him off. He tried to pull her back but she broke free and rushed out of the bed.
“This isn’t over Leigh, you’re a mere servant in my house” Kenver gruffed angrily and without a waste of time, she ran to the door and kept pressing the buttons. Luckily, the door rolled open and she rushed out to meet Kash and Kael standing outside.
They kept staring at her as she lowered her head shamefully not knowing what to do. She looked shaggy as her hair was scattered and her dress rumpled. They could see reddish marks on her skin like she was in a struggle, well, not that Kael cared but this meant something.
Having in mind that she might be lost, he and Kash decided to check around and finally arrived at Kenver’s zone. It was kinda awkward pulling up at Kenver’s zone to ask for a silly ugly maid but Kash coaxed him to give it a try even when he kept hissing at the idea.
Without saying a word, she ran off and Kash made to go after her but Kael held his arm.
“Just don’t fall for this one” Kael adviced and proceeded into Kenver’s room. He didn’t want to conclude his guess about Leigh-Ann being in Kenver’s room and how she had ran out, looking all messed up, not yet.
“What do you want, did you lose your way huh?” Kenver asked once Kael came into view. He looked all red and angry.
Kael watched him pour himself a glass of alcohol and noticed a ray of anger on his face. He took a sip and proceeded out of the room to the balcony.
“I would call it a mistake that my maid was in your zone and inside your room but next time, I sure wouldn’t,” Kael said calmly and turned to leave.
“Your maid huh?” Kenver asked with surprise in his voice and turned to face Kael “So that’s your fucking maid”
Kael didn’t respond and Kenver went to stand in front of him “Why don’t you tell your maid to stay out of my way. You know, any prey in my zone doesn’t leave untouched”
Kenver smirked and without a word, Kael turned and walked out. He wasn’t there for so much talk in the first place but that only infuriated Kenver.
So after all, she was that b@stard’s maid. A mere thought of Kael outsmarting him again heated him up and angrily, he threw the glass of gin he held against the wall and it broke into pieces.
There he was getting her fired and there he was getting her hired as a maid. “Argh!” He yelled angrily and raked my hair with my fingers. He felt like a loser AGAIN.
” Am so gonna kick her asshole and make her scream my name. I swear, I’ll tear her limb by limb and that’s a fucking promise ”

Leigh-Ann couldn’t stop crying in her room. He almost took advantage of her, raped her. And to think they were both living in the same house, she knew he was sure going to hunt her down.
There was a knock on the door which got her afraid. She felt so insecure like he was everywhere.
“Leigh-Ann, are you in there?” A female voice broke in and she heaved in relief. She wiped her tears and got over to the door. It was Maerie, one of the maids.
“Are… you… seriously crying?” She asked once she saw Leigh-Ann’s red and swollen eyes “What happened?”
Leigh-Ann gave her access into the room and got over to sit on the bed. She didn’t know where to begin.
“Did he get mad at you?”
She sighed then looked up at Maerie “I got into trouble with Kenver”
“It’s Sir Kenver.” She corrected making Leigh-Ann roll my eyes “But i’m surprised. He’s never come after any of us. He takes us as slaves and treats us as one”
A brooding silence stepped in and after some time, she spoke up. “Oh come on Leigh-Ann, you’re so beautiful and perfectly built. Trust me, I won’t be surprised if all the brothers come hovering around you. Even the heartless one”
“Who’s the heartless one?” Leigh-Ann asked curiously.
“Shu-sh, it’s Sir Kyler,” Maerie answered in a whisper “He’s not human at all. He’s cold-hearted and a Demi-god without a heart”
“Maybe I’ve not met him yet”
“And pray not to” Maerie cut in “He’s the oldest of all, seconded by Sir Kash, then Sir Kenver And lastly your master, Sir Kael”
Speaking of her master, she remembered she didn’t give him the glass of wine he requested and knew he’d be mad at her and rain down unpleasant names on her. Gosh, everything felt so hard. Why did they all have to look alike huh?
“I… I need to go” Leigh-Ann said and sprang up to my feet immediately.
“Well, stay out of the North, South, and East Zones. Especially the North If you want to survive, the South, if you don’t want what happened earlier to get worse. Your only business is in the West Zone which belongs to your master, good luck”
Leigh-Ann dashed out of her room taking notes of the various zones that Maerie mentioned.
She got another glass of wine and hurried off without having any suitable explanation to give when she arrived in front of Kael
Carefully, she started towards the stairs but then she looked down and saw one of the brothers walking in from the front door with guards behind him. They were all dressed in black and she also noticed he was smoking from his pipe. That could be her master, right?
Without wasting time, she rushed down the stairs and stopped two inches away from him. She bowed slightly and proffered the glass of wine.
Gosh, that smell from the pipe was choking as hell.
“Apologies Sir, I had been lost” She said apologetically. When he didn’t respond, she looked up to meet his cold, dark ice. His, fire and hers, ice. Why does he look familiar? Like she knew him already?
“This is the glass of wine you requested for”
He didn’t say a word and Leigh-Ann tried not to cough due to the smoke from the pipe. It was so powerful that she felt her head burn and her tummy churn.
Slowly, he took the glass from the tray and she heaved. Oh goodness, finally. It didn’t last a second when she felt cold liquid pouring from her head to her face and then to my dress.
She gasped and stepped away. He had just emptied the glass of wine on her. Leigh-Ann looked up at him and caught him smoking from the pipe with an empty expression on his face but then, she noticed something. Something in his eyes which made her shiver.
They were cold and bloodshot. The same eyes she had stared into this morning when she arrived and met him first. He… he should be Kyler. She figured. The one Maerie had warned her about.

SOMEWHERE IN KOREA
“They’ve been admitted into CamBridge High as Seniors and they’ll be studying in the Special Study”
On hearing the news, she smirked and sipped from her glass. She could barely imagine they had finally gotten a lead after so many years of looking for one.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
“That sounds perfect. I’ll be glad to be a teacher you know” She chirped and laughed heartily. “Finally we’ve got something juicy and exciting to tell the boss”
Oh poor Kyler. Does he think he can protect his dear brothers enough huh? Oh, poor boys.
She laughed heartily and raised her glass of red wine in the air. “Cheer to a new beginning”
