**Elizabeth's POV***But Jo seemed to see my confusion. He put a finger to my lips and signaled for me not to speak.Then he turned and blocked me with his body."Can I take my wife away now?""Of course, you can! Please!" The voices of several elders were trembling with fear. They knelt with their heads on the ground, not daring to lift them up at all.I got into the king's gold-made vehicle with the help of maids. This was my first experience with this kind of transportation unique to the forbidden valley. But I was not in the mood to experience it carefully. I was still in shock over what had just happened."Are you...the king?" I asked in a whisper.Jo sat next to me, and instead of answering my question, he raised his index finger to his lips once again, signaling me to be quiet.I gulped and stopped talking. But my heart was beating loudly, filling the entire space in the vehicle. I think Jo should have heard it.The vehicle was a little small for me, and the inevitable touch o
**Elizabeth's POV***"You mean they gave birth to babies covered in fire again? Or that babies covered in fire tore open their bellies and crawled out?" The more I thought about it, the more terrified I felt, and I couldn't help but reach up and touch my stomach.If the curse is true, will my child be born in such a way?"You guessed it right. And any abortifacient drugs won't work on those fetuses. Moreover, something even worse has happened, making the residents of the valley determined that they must kill these monsters covered in fire.""What happened...?""Those flame-covered babies escaped after they were born, and no one knew where they went. But, about a hundred years ago, they reappeared. And. They grew up.""They became big, grown-up, flame-covered monsters. They used to come into the town to kill and rob some young girls. They became a nightmare for everyone.""Holy crap," I covered my mouth. Now I understood why they were so scared. The carnage that could happen at any mo
**Elizabeth's POV***Above is the grassland, and below is the valley.The grassland and the valley are like two different worlds. If the grassland is a utopia full of happiness, then the valley is a hell full of despair.Everything is upside down.When I was in the grassland, I was the smallest creature in the whole grassland. Everything is too big for me. When I am in the valley, I am the largest creature in the entire valley, and everything is too small for me.Several servants put five beds together to make a bed suitable for me to sleep in.The house is also very short, and I have to lower my head a lot, or I will hit the roof.I am like a giant living here.Do I really have to attend the Queen's ceremony? I'll look more like King Julian's sister or his mother when I stand next to him, right?Forget it, it doesn't matter. Everything is fake anyway. It was all about keeping my baby.Once again, I put my hand on my belly.I'm afraid I'll only know if the baby's father is Isidore or
**Elizabeth's POV***The door opened, and a dozen servants came in carrying a huge bed."Why are they..." I was surprised."The king and queen should be sleeping in the same room." Julian gave me a hint with his eyes. I immediately shut my mouth.Seeing the servants remove the king's old bed and replace it with a new one, my heart began to beat faster.Did this mean that I would have to sleep with Julian in the same bed in the future?I didn't mind sleeping with him in the cave because I thought he was just a young boy unconscious from his injuries. But now that I know he's an adult...It was so awkward."Don't put on a reluctant face. I'm quite well-behaved when I sleep. I don't snore, grind my teeth, sleepwalk, talk in my sleep, and I definitely won't touch you or your belly.""I won't either," I said.Thankfully, the bed was big enough that we slept in the same bed without touching each other's hands or feet at all. We had a quiet night.The days went by.My belly got bigger, whil
**Julian's POV***For the next half of the month, Elizabeth did not set out to make the flying machine she described that day, but proceeded to learn to make other items under the tutelage of her teacher.I prefer to call them toys. For example, some wind-up ducks that walk on their own and wooden bears that make roaring sounds.However, Elizabeth seemed to enjoy being creative. She showed me her little inventions sometimes, such as some wind-up bears that walk on two feet, and wooden ducks that make roaring noises.Well, that's kind of interesting. It's just something for women and children to pass the time.I never expected that Elizabeth would give me another big surprise half a month later.At night, when I pushed open the door to my room, something flew out of the room and hit me in the forehead.It almost knocked off my crown. I was about to lash out when I heard Elizabeth's gasp."Oh, I'm so sorry, Julian, I tried to make it stop, but failed. It doesn't let me control it very
**Julian's POV***Elizabeth looked up at me after a while, "I didn't think you'd want to leave the valley that much. I thought you'd like to stay here...""Why would you think that?""No offense, you are the king of all in the valley. You have the respect of everyone. But you lose everything you have once you leave the valley. I thought you would prefer to stay here. After all, the outside world is dangerous.""No, I don't enjoy staying here, I hate the forbidden valley more than anyone else." I sneered, with hate oozing out of my eyes.I have never told anyone how much I hate the valley. Because I am the king here. I had to be peaceful in order to appease all the inhabitants of the valley.But I couldn't control my desire to talk in front of Elizabeth at that moment."Elizabeth, I'll tell you a secret. You have to forget it after you hear it. We announced to the public that my parents had died of illness. But in fact, they committed suicide because they couldn't stand living at the
**Elizabeth's POV***We flew higher and higher. After a while, we looked down and saw that the huge plane on the ground was as small as a sesame seed.And, I began to feel the wind picking up. I made the golden feather slow down."Julian, I think we're approaching the threshold that triggers the gale." I said seriously."Yes," Julian gripped my arm tightly with both hands, "I feel a force tugging me downward.""Okay, now we're slowly going up. Half a meter per second, what do you think?""No problem. I'm ready to go." Julian said.I manipulated the golden feather to rise slowly."This golden feather is so amazing. It can hover still in the air, can't it?" Julian said pleasantly."Yes, keep quiet. I need to give it my full attention. The gale will be here any minute.""OK."Just as I had risen about 2 meters, a terrible force suddenly came from below to roll us down. But I was prepared for it. I immediately manipulated the golden feather to descend to keep my balance.Thanks to my hun
**Elizabeth's POV** * "The King's Scepter is a treasure given to me by my father. It gives us special powers. It is for this reason that those inhabitants obey and fear us. This is the most important secret of our royal family. I will not tell anyone the secret of your golden feather, and you must not tell the secret of the King's Scepter." I was impressed. Julian traded secrets with me, which meant he trusted me totally, "Okay, deal." I think I didn't just find an ally tonight, I found a friend. "You haven't told me what the experience of owning a wolf is like? Can you talk to your wolf?" "Well, owning a wolf is like finding the other half of your soul. I feel strong and powerful. It will communicate with me in my mind, like the closest friend. But sometimes I think it is like a troublesome and naughty child. " "Why do you say that?" "It retains the nature of a beast. It is easily impulsive and out of control. It does not tend to be sensible, but wild. It will prompt me to mak
**Elizabeth's POV** * Everything had settled down, and we worked on reconstruction and search and rescue efforts in the aftermath of the disaster. Soon months passed. During this time, we lived mainly on the grassland. It is very spacious, can accommodate many people, and it is the main affected area. My mates and I alternate shifts to look after the baby. My son is very well-behaved, he loves Julian the most and smiles when he sees him, but he seems to be scared of Elroy and cries when he sees him. I think Elroy is so huge that it scares him. With the baby as a point of reference, I realized that in the space of a few months, Julian seemed to have grown a little taller, while Elroy seemed to have gotten smaller. I think the magic that stayed in the grassland and the valley is gone. Without the influence of magic, the giant wolves and the dwarf wolves all started to return to their original appearance. I found out about this long ago. When I left the forbidden valley and came
**Elizabeth's POV** * "Dylan! Where are you guys? Isidore! Louis! Elroy! Answer me! Where are you?" I searched for them in the rising waters, but couldn't find anyone. The rainstorm got heavier and heavier. The sky seemed to have been torn open by a crack. The rain poured down like a waterfall, and I couldn't even open my eyes. The sea was rising faster and faster. More and more people and animals fell into the water, screaming for help. "Help me! Save me!" "Save my son!" "Mom-" "My daughter!" The whole world has turned into a waterlogged hell. My ears were filled with the desperate wails of everyone on the verge of death. In contrast, the orange-tailed merman let out a gleeful laugh. "Hahahaha look at this wonderful scene. This world will become a wonderful utopia. From now on, only noble sea creatures can survive." "Let the storm come even harder!" He raised his scepter high, causing more dark clouds to tumble and converge overhead. "Elizabeth! Watch this! You are my be
**Elizabeth's POV***Seeing them throw the explosives into the sea, I told Isidore and Louis, "We'd better leave. Tell Brandon and the others what's going on over here first. See what they have planned."Then we three left quietly.After listening to our report, Brandon said after thinking, "The wisest option is to take advantage of the process of the fight between the merman and the Blood Moon pack. We secretly sneak into the bottom and take the treasure."Dylan suddenly interjected, "You guys go to the bottom of the sea to find the treasure. I'll stay alone on the beach to fight with the Blood Moon pack. As the former alpha of the sea, I should protect my people. I have not been a competent alpha of the sea for the past 10,000 years. They can betray me and hate me, but I cannot abandon them and hate them."It seems that Dylan has really reflected on his faults. He used not to care about hurting anyone except Isabella.Now he is willing to take responsibility for his people, in addi
**Elizabeth's POV***Gosh, Elroy actually spilled the secret I was trying to hide.All of us were shocked. Even the door to the room was pushed open, and the 5 men outside stared at me in shock.So they had been eavesdropping on the conversation in the room...Isidore's eyes widened, and he asked me, as if he suddenly realized the event, "Elizabeth, is he our son?"In fact, I still can't confirm whether the baby is Brandon's or Isidore's because the baby was born prematurely.Anyway, the baby's father was between the two of them.My eyes accidentally made contact with Brandon, who suddenly opened wide and looked at the baby in the crib."Elizabeth! This is our baby, isn't it?" Brandon asked loudly, and everyone looked at him, then turned to me.Damn, the scene got even more chaotic."I..." I stumbled over my words, "I don't know..."But instead of disappointing Isidore, my ambiguous answer brought a hopeful sparkle to his eyes."Look how much he looks like me."Isidore seems to have
**Elizabeth's POV***"Don't you fvcking think about possessing Elizabeth! If you even think about it again, I'll make you vampires extinct from this world!"Louis laughed out loud, "That's funny. I just like her blood. But the fact that you guys are so attached to her makes me start to get interested in her.""She must be extraordinary. I'll spend more time looking into what exactly makes her special.""Nuts! We won't let you harass Elizabeth if she doesn't want to see you!"I was touched.No one chose to sacrifice me for profit.I think they must have worked very hard to find me. I shouldn't have been so impatient.In fact, I didn't mind their noise. I just, didn't know how I was going to face them.They are both my mates. One of them is the father of my baby. And I don't even know who the father of the child is.I was really afraid they would be angry with me for that.But running away would not solve the problem."Caleb, can you come in the room for a minute? Just you come in." I
**Elizabeth's POV***"We are in your mind. From the moment you opened the crystal coffin, I knew it was fate that brought you to find me. Since then, I have been inside your body, slowly merging with your soul.""Now, what you see of me is the last trace of the soul belonging to Isabella. Soon, I will completely fuse with you. Isabella will disappear from this world, and you will become the complete Elizabeth."I couldn't take in such a large amount of information quickly. I recalled my past experiences while understanding what she said."So...that mysterious power that has been protecting my child, is it you?"I remembered that ever since I entered the sea, my belly would no longer be pierced by swords. I had never thought of the reason before, and now it sounded very much like Isabella was protecting me."Yes, it's me. In a sense, it is also my child."Isabella finished with a sudden sigh, "I don't have much time left. There are very many things that I can't tell you in detail. I c
**Elizabeth's POV***I was awakened by water from the hoses.As I opened my eyes, I found that I was thrown on the floor. Several women were surrounding me, flushing me with hoses."Oh my gosh she stinks! Where did she ever go?""Turn up the water and rinse her off. She stinks so bad I'm going to throw up.""Especially her hair. What's that slimy stuff? Ewww, rinse it off!"A jet of water rushed to the spot on my head where it hurt. I screamed out in pain."Stop! Stop!"No one paid any attention to me as they mercilessly flushed the wounds on my body with water until no blood came out.I was cold and lay on the ground, feeling like I was going to faint again.A man came up to me and pointed at me, and ordered the women.My ears were filled with water, and I couldn't hear what they were saying. I only vaguely heard words like "auction tonight," "don't let her die," "makeup," and so on.I tried to lift my eyelids, but lost consciousness.When I woke up again, I was sitting in a chair.
**Austin's POV***Francis didn't deny it, "Yes, I am. To be precise, I was one of the fire-covered monsters. I killed all the other fire-covered monsters in the Forbidden Valley except for me."Julian seemed deeply prejudiced and wary of him, "Did you hurt Elizabeth?""No. Elizabeth helped me learn to control fire. She let me know I wasn't a monster, I was a fire wolf. We became friends."Now we finally know what happened to Elizabeth after she was sent to the fire-covered monster.She really did perform a miracle." Where the hell is Elizabeth now?" We were all desperate to know the answer to that question.Merman, the only one on the plane who knew Elizabeth's location, slowly lifted his hand and pointed in one direction."I can feel that she took my scale with her in that direction..."All of us looked over in that direction.What a coincidence. This is where we originally wanted to go - the location of the Blood Moon pack and the vampires."Pilots on command, full speed ahead!"*
**Austin's POV***We were flying in a plane over the forbidden valley. Since we all knew the same girl, Elizabeth, we naturally talked about her.The Alpha of Poison Wolf, Caleb, used sign language to tell his sister, Carolina, what everyone said about Elizabeth.From Elizabeth's experiences, we learned more and more about her.No one was more shocked than I was.I'll never forget the first time I met Elizabeth. She was only eight years old and as weak as a fragile glass. She cried and begged me to help her.More than a decade has passed. She grew from a dummy who was bullied every day to a heroine who saved an entire pack and even an entire country.It was hard for me to connect the Elizabeth of my memory with the girl they were talking about.But all the facts forced me to accept it all.Elroy said Elizabeth had led the giant wolves to drive out the invaders and help them survive the crisis of losing their country.I, however, was seeking the help of the giant wolves.No wonder Eli
