New law of Beast Taming

"That stupid bitch. How did she stop my plan to agitate the beast in the evening? Everything should have gone according to my plan."

The mayor was drunk right now. The sun was setting outside his window and there was still a significant amount of light outside his window.

But the mayor had not been able to stop himself from drinking his sorrow away. He was pissed off that he had not been able to overcome Yoko Tsurugi.

Not only had that female seen through the mayor's first plan, but her vigilance had also increased.

Now getting to the beast would become even more difficult. The mayor would have to pull something incredibly unique to get past Yoko Tsurugi.

"I need to utilize my plan quickly. There is supposed to be a government inspection tomorrow. I need them to see that Yoko Tsurugi is not a good choice as help."

The mayor was drunk but he still had his wits. The alcohol in his system was only that for courage. Enjoy exclusive chapters from empire

He had thought of slipping oral drugs into the beast's food and making it go mad that way. But his more rational mindset had informed the mayor that he would be caught that way.

So, it would be better to use the smell of drugs. A little fresh air would take care of the odor and there would be no residue left behind after he was done.

But the only problem was - how to get that drug closer to the giant beast. He could not walk into the enclosure and just make the beast sniff the drugs.

He needed someone else to do this for him.

It was then that the mayor remembered the small child he had used in the evening.

The power child had been stopped but she was still fascinated by the beast. Perhaps the mayor could use her now.

So, the mayor quickly bottled up his remaining alcohol and quickly left the room.

Stella passed by the mayor's room a short while later. She smelled the stench of alcohol in the air and quickly took a few steps back.

She had never liked alcohol because she got drunk too quickly. Even the smell caused her to act tipsy.

Stella turned back but her mind suddenly began to think faster.

She had a suspicion that the mayor was up to no good. She had already heard what had happened in the evening with the kid.

And while the kid might not have actively said who helped her out, Stella was smart enough to figure out that it had been the mayor.

"What is this man planning? Something is wrong with the mayor."

Stella was convinced that something was wrong with the mayor. So, she quickly decided to follow him.

But somehow, she lost the mayor and ended up in front of Yoko Tsurugi's room.

She was about to go back when the door opened. A half-naked Yoko greeted Stella with a wide smirk on her face.

"Do you want me for something? I could see that you were interested in me but not willing to come in. So, I opened the door for you. Now come in."

Yoko called Stella back and Stella even almost entered the room before she caught herself.

This was not what she was here for.

"Lady Yoko, I have some unfortunate news for you. The mayor is planning something to cause you trouble. As my guest, I must keep you informed and help you out."

Stella quickly spoke up. She did not keep any detail to herself when she informed Yoko of what was happening.

But surprisingly enough, it did not seem as if Yoko Tsurugi was surprised at the news.

If anything, she looked as calm as ever.

"Hmm, thank you for the news. But I expected something like this to happen anyway. So, Stella, are you here to help me out? Or will you go back to your post now?"

Stella was in a bind now. She wanted to help Yoko but she also had her duties to perform.

Choosing one would be impossible. Not to mention, it would put her professional ethics of not harming her clients at risk.

And technically speaking, the mayor was her client right now. He was the one the government had assigned Stella primarily for.

Just when it looked like Stella would faint, she felt Yoko Tsurugi flick her forehead and pull her out of her thoughts.

The familiar action caused Stella to blush and shy away.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Stella unconsciously asked with a whine. A blush covered her face as soon as she as her body was done forcing that action.

She looked up, only to see Yoko Tsurugi looking back at her with a nostalgic expression on her face.

"Go and perform your duties. I am sure you can turn a blind eye to what I am going to do. After all, it doesn't conflict with your duty, right?"

Stella gulped once she realizes that Yoko Tsurugi was right. Stella could choose to step out of this situation and everything would be alright for her.

Her brain told her to do so. But her heart asked her to help Yoko out. The mayor had the home advantage and that was a massive thing.

But Stella never got the chase to tell Yoko all this. Before she could speak, Sakura walked into the corridor and froze as soon as she saw Stella.

The youngest female quietly walked over to Yoko and draped an arm around Yoko's waist possessively.

"What can *we* help you with, government officer? If you are done here, then please leave. I have something *very personal* and *important* to discuss with Yoko here."

There was a hint of possessiveness in Sakura's tone. She was also currently glaring daggers at Stella, asking her why she had not left the two alone by now.

Stella got Sakura's hint but that made her annoyed more than anything. She did not want to do as she was being told by this spoilt brat in front of her.

"..."

So, Stella left the scene after that.

As soon as she left, the hold Sakura had on Yoko's waist also lightened and Sakura breathed a sigh of relief.

"You worry me, Yoko. there are too many weirdos around you who want your body. You need to be careful."

Sakura sounded bumped out but also annoyed. And every time she thought of Yoko being with someone else, her insides burned with jealousy.

She was the only one who deserved Yoko and she would be the only one to be by Yoko's side in the end.

...…..

Amane knew what Sakura was going through. But since she did not care much about Sakura's possessive tendencies, she chose not to comment on it.

She was more focused on what the mayor would do tonight.

From what Amane had noticed before, the mayor was not someone who gave up easily. So, there was no way he would have backed out quietly once he found a way to get Amane into trouble.

"Sakura, are you tired? Are you going to bed?"

Sakura looked up at Amane with her wide eyes. She seemed to have taken Amane's words in the wrong direction and made assumptions all on her own.

"Are we going to bed? I am so tired Yoko. Let's go to bed now."

Sakura whined and tugged at Amane's clothes. Amane only looked more and more amused at Sakura's actions.

"Alright, then go to bed. I will keep an eye on the Gwazi and make sure nothing happens to it."

"..."

Sakura was alarmed and her eyes widened. She had not expected this to be the outcome of Yoko's words.

But in retrospect, it made sense and now Sakura felt foolish for not seeing through Yoko's deceptive words.

"Yoko, I can help you keep the night watch and…"

"Sakura, I will not be in our room tonight. So, if 'someone' sneaks around here, I will never know. But maybe I will be thankful if they helped me out a little bit."

Amane did not say it outright but Sakura seemed to have gotten the message anyway.

"Would you look at the time? It's already so late. I should go to bed now. Good night, Yoko."

It was still bright outside but Sakura pulled the covers over her face. That hid her from the prying eyes of others around her.

Not that it mattered to Amane. She had conveyed her message and Sakura had understood what she wanted from him.

The poor mayor would not know what hit him soon.

But first, Amane needed to feed the beast she was keeping. That poor thing must be hungry since it had been some time since it was last fed anything.

"The bait is here and the safety net is also here. It is time for me to go ahead and execute my plan."

Amane left the building with food in her bag. And she was well aware of the mayor following her.

After all, that man was not as stealthy as he believed himself to be.
