“ And what am I supposed to do with this piece of information ma’am ? Congratulations on being his fiancée , kindly remember to share an invitation once it’s time for your wedding. I’ll like to attend my uncle’s wedding even if he doesn’t invite me by then” Shayla said as she blew a dramatic aor making the little hair blow away from her eyes.
Riley gasped and the maids released Shayla arm immediately, she stood up from the ground then stretched her arm before dusting her knees and arm.
She rolled her eyes at Riley who was still in the shock.
“You’re my sis-in-law? Pardon my manners, I thought you’re one of the maids.“ she gushed but clasped her palm to her mouth as she recalled what she said.
Shayla scoffed and nodded.
“ I’m just trying to say you’re humble since you decided to wear a simple but classy outfit. I’m sorry for hitting you.” Riley said while batting her eyes.
Shayla shrugged and cleared her throat.
“ But do you go around slapping random people that offended you and still apologized?” She said in a calm judgmental voice, she dusted her dress and made to walk away but Riley held her back with an apologetic expression on her face.
“ No , I was in a hurry to see my mine and got scared that the little bump might have destroyed the dress or make me smell weird once I get to him, you know he can be picky sometimes. I’m really sorry ” Riley explained with an apologetic look.
“ it’s fine , I need to do something important. I need to leave now and do not tell my uncle you saw me , I’ll inform him about that later ” Shayla said as she racked her brain before she was able to come up with that. She was hoping she won’t say anything to Devile to avoid being in deep trouble with him.
“Okay , see you soon . I need to see your uncle, he was able to squeeze me in for few minutes out of his tight schedule “ Riley said while Shayla nodded and turned around to walk away.
“ Can I know your name ?” Riley asked curiously making Shayla stop on her track.
“ I’m Shayla “ She said and walked away from her fastly , she felt eyes on her but looked around and saw nobody. She felt uneasy but cast the thoughts away.
She slapped her mouth” why the f**k did I say he’s my uncle? If he hears about it he’s going to kill me” she thought to herself and knocked herself.
“ I should have let beat me up than to tell her I’m his niece . I’ll be in deep s**t if he finds out, I just hope she won’t run her mouth once she’s with him” She thought as she made her way to the kitchen with her heart pounding heavily in fear.

TOP FLOOR, DEVILE’S FLOOR.
Devile scoffed with Shawn and sage behind him, his hands were tucked into his black robe pocket. He was perfectly dressed in a black regalia with touch of gold linen design.
His Alpha crown sat prettily on his head with a way he designn of a huge wolf with red and silver eyes on it.
Shawn and sage stood behind watching him closely as he stared down at Shayla and Riley who were engaging in a conversation from afar.
“ I thought Riley would be moving dangerously by now , I wonder how your niece was able to escape her wrath though” Shawn said with a smile, his blue round neck sticked to his body tightly.
“That little liar already told her I’m her uncle to escape, sage let the guards drag Shayla outside and beat her until she faints. I don’t mind her getting crippled, she shouldn’t die though. She’s mine to kill “ he said the last statement more darkly before concentrating on her back view as she walked away from Riley.
She felt a gaze on her body and turned around but couldn’t see him.
The building has 60 floors and she’s on the 36th floor right now , he’s only able to see and hear her since he’s a special being. He scoffed and watched her walk away while mumbling things to herself.
“ Okay Master” Sage said and made to walk away but was stopped away by Devile’s voice.
“ Call me Devile when we’re alone guys , stop with this master or sir s**t” he said with a smirk as he looked back at his childhood friends who’s his betas.

As Shayla walked away , Riley’s smiling face turned into a smirk.
She turned to one of her maids, Chanel .” find out every single thing about Shayla in the next one hour” she said and tapped Chanel’s shoulder.
“yes ma’am “ Chanel said before walking off to mix up with the other maids in the palace.
“ if she’s a threat , then I’ll cut her off and make sure she die a painful death . She smells like a mere human, Make sure you don’t get too close to what’s my mine, if not I’ll gladly hold your burial with Barbie theme soon to be sister-in-law “ Riley thought and an evil smirk appeared on her lips as she walked off.
