Sensing Leland's arrival, Eloise immediately turned around. She was about to attack the white wolf using her fire magic again but this time her movements were outclassed by Leland.

When she was raising her hand to cast his magic, Leland had already charged at her and pounced, the next second the soul stone in Eloise's left hand was snatched away.

"Grrr…"

Leland stared intently at the woman who was currently under him. He was relieved that he thought fast and immediately chased Eloise to take that soul stone from her before she could have time to threaten him further. She must not expect him to act so quickly.

Now that he had the soul stone, he must decide what he should do to this wench.

"Ah." Eloise grimaced as she felt the sting of Leland's sharp nails stuck under her neck and when she saw Leland raise one hand to kill her, she immediately said, "Are you going to break your oath?"

Hearing that, Leland's hand stopped in midair. Eloise smirked and then continued. "You swore you'd never kill me no matter what. I know you swore that to me. However, I know you'll break that oath because you are untrustworthy. Just like you abandoned me in the past for that human, you will abandon me again. That's why... this time, I took a preventive measure..."

Leland narrowed his eyes. His ears perked up. Why didn't Eloise look scared in the face of death? He would just stab her with his sharp claws and end her life right here and right now.

However, she just smirked in and looked like she had expected him to do everything he just did. 𝙛𝘳𝘦e𝓌e𝗯n𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝚘𝑚

Did she have other plans?

Eloise scoffed and pushed Leland's body away from her. However, he was too heavy for her.

"Get off me, and I will tell you how you can save your daughter's life," said Eloise curtly. Her lips curved up in a lopsided smile. "What? Do you think I stole two souls and put them inside one soul stone and let you snatch it from me so easily?"

Leland's heart skipped a beat.

So, she did expect his movements. She knew he would try to take that soul stone from her and she didn't fight tooth and nails to keep it with her.

Was she... telling him the truth?

Were there two soul stones?

Seeing what Eloise was capable of, with her poisons, the toneglyph, and the soul stone, Leland believed her when she told him she disguised herself as Katherine and infiltrate his castle to get close to Sophie. She had the potion to remove her scent. That's why he never knew she had been hovering around his family...

Gosh, he felt so stupid. Why did he let an outsider come into his house? All the info he collected about Katherine was wrong. This was so unacceptable!

He slowly moved back and stood fiercely, staring at Eloise who got up and brushed the dust off her clothes. She shook her head and looked at him in a disappointed expression.

"Look, I tried to do it the nice way... I thought our friendship could still be salvaged, I thought, by making you swear an oath to mend our relationship, we can really be friends again. However... you broke your promise so easily," Eloise said.

"You are no longer the Leland I know of. He would have upheld his promise, he would value his friends...." Eloise pointed at Leland and she scoffed bitterly. "You are making me do this."

Leland growled. He didn't make her do anything. He was only protecting his family.

"I can't understand you when you growl. I guess, you are angry? Well, I am angry too!! You never care about my feelings and the fact that I have done so much for you!"

Grrr…. Leland growled at Eloise's words. She shook her head and spoke again. "Stop it. You know very well how I felt about you. We were betrothed by our mothers. We hated them but we were not against the betrothal if you would care to remember. However, as soon as you found that lowly human, I no longer exist in your book and you left me, not even giving me a chance to stay with you. It was hella embarrassing."

She raised a hand to stop Leland from coming closer. She could see anger in his eyes and thought she should quickly make her point clear before he became too angry and just kill her.

"Don't come near. Not only do you know me but I also know you." Eloise smirked. "I knew you would refuse me. So I kept your children's souls in two different soul stones. The soul stone that you took only kept your son's soul while the soul stone that kept your daughter's soul is in a hidden place that no one will ever find it."

AWWOOOO....!!!

Leland was so angry, he charged at Eloise and dug his nails so deep, tearing the skin through the woman's flesh. Blood gradually oozed out from Eloise's wounded neck. She only winced in pain.

"Kill me... and you can say goodbye to... Little Anne, isn't it?" Eloise taunted him with a mocking smile. "Go ahead... I dare you."

,m Right now, Leland really wanted to crush the woman's head but he remembered that he only had one soul stone. If Eloise was telling the truth, then he only got little Jack's soul.

Leland had to resist that urge to crack Eloise's head open. He got off Eloise's body and stepped back to free the woman from his grip.

The fire that burned the forest slowly dimmed. The area that was once very lush became cleared open in just a few minutes. Leland stood opposite Eloise, staring at her very intently. His eyes were filled with the desire to kill but Eloise didn't feel scared at all.

The woman even laughed at the huge wolf who was so angry but couldn't do anything.

After a while, Eloise stifled her laughter. Then she wiped the blood that was slowly flowing from under her neck from Leland's claws.

"Stop looking at me like that and try to relax." She laughed again. "It's just a simple deal. You do what I want and your child is safe, that's all."
