Dominick’s main suspect could be Paxton who holds a lot of information about their family. There could be a saying that keeps your friends close and your enemies closer. But there could be someone in the family as well. Kyle. He could be part of it or his brother Ciel. Then, there’s Cedric.

“Don’t go out again, do you understand me?” He said in a low voice. “Don’t go out alone, Bella.” He sighed as he reached her chin. “I will get really mad. I might chain you up again.”

She snorted.

“Chaining me up in my own home?”

“Yeah? Why not? If you aren’t that hard-headed, I wouldn’t think about chaining you.” He growled as he finally gave up and kissed her lips. “I’ll prepare something for you to eat.” He said as he touched her tummy. “What do you want to eat?”

“Anything,” She said. “But I am quite worried about Caleb.” She mumbled as she looked at Ciel who was wandering around and checking the fish pond and so on.

    Monique could see the resemblance in their face. Perhaps, her sister reincarnated in a body of that half-human, half-fae. Her eyes were like glass, big and it seemed to be shining. Just like Reina’s. She gently pushed away Caleb and reached for the girl’s hand. “What’s your name?” Monique asked. “Solenn. My name is Solenn.” The girl said and placed her hand over Monique’s head. “Your hair is so soft.” “How old are you Solenn?” The girl pulled her hand away as she walked around the trail of the pond then she squatted and pointed at the water. She didn’t answer but she stared down at it. “They said that I was a hundred and fifteen years old. But I don’t remember much since I woke up from a deep slumber.” Now, that all answers her curiosity. “This new fish here.” She pointed. “There’s a new fish…” She exclaimed excitedly. “I think they multiplied again.” She said and walked around as she walked under the flowing water like a fall. She disappeared as Caleb panicked and wal

    Monique could hear her sister and her mate laughing. The fact that they were very much different from each other… with uncanny similarities. The lights were off and the lamps were dim. It’s to keep the light off from the above. “I can’t sleep now,” Caleb said as he yawned and sat beside her. “Let’s go outside and search for her.” “You found her,” Monique said as she flipped the book. “I did. And she left…” “Bella said that she’ll come back for more ice cream.” “Is she old enough to be my wife?” Caleb asked. “I want peace and silence,” Monique whispered as Caleb sighed. “But tell me…” He pouted. Monique frowned as she closed the book with a slam. “Just sleep, Caleb. She’ll come back.” “I can only sleep with her, with me.” He explained as Monique stood and patted his head. “Just wait for her here. I want a break from your chatter.” She said as she went to the room that was provided for her and Ciel. She took out two pillows and pushed them to Ciel’s chest. He held

    Paxton reached his head when there was a lot of commotion from the King’s relatives. Princess Olivia was sitting on the other side, as she seemed to be holding herself from bursting in anger. “Your highness,” he called. “You have the highest position among all of them.” He understood that she could be a little submissive toward her mate. “Your brothers need your help.” Olivia held her hands together. It was shaking. “Tell me that they are alive. That way, I wouldn’t have to worry.” “They are well… somewhere. Just tell me what I can do to assist you?” “You do your job as always, Paxton.” Olivia stood. She looked pale and something must be going on. She already might know who was behind all of it. And he’s right… The mastermind is within the family. “Chase off those darn vampires!” He finally stood as he went out. “They are guests!” He shouted. “Do not dare touch them.” He growled as Duke Stiles glared at him. “You are just a darn, assistant.” “You knew well that m

    Cedric crossed his arms as he shrugged. The woman doesn't speak. He didn't know the reason why and it wasn’t a good time to ask why she didn't speak. But they stayed in Paxton’s room and watched the lady expertly and gracefully pin the needles on his body. “Is she a doctor?” Cedric asked the doctor who nodded. “She’s a resident, with expertise in herbs and pseudoscience. She’s a genius in class as well.” “I see.” Cedric nodded as he looked at Lavinia and watched the woman do that. She set a timer and stood straight. She kept her head down and she kept glancing at Paxton’s body. Since the guy was so busy, he probably couldn’t get laid since he didn't look much at ladies. He was minding his business and focused on what was important to him. Perhaps, this lady can stay. “The lady can stay,” Cedric said. “I think we need her more to keep the Duke calm.” The doctor hesitates to leave. “Before you go, we need her name,” Cedric said as the doctor pressed his lips and forced him to smil

    Hungry. Bella was monstrous when she’s hungry and Paxton made sure that everything was on the table. Cedric cooked breakfast and Lavinia was helping while Bella had a big appetite. “You need to eat as well,” Bella said and kicked the chair toward him, she’s herself and she’s a gangster. He swore that he got goosebumps a while ago when she scolded the King. “Yeah, sure.” Paxton sat down as he looked at Lavinia. “The nurse… did she have her breakfast?” “She asked if she could eat in her room and I delivered it a while ago,” Lavinia answered while flipping the bacon. “I see,” Paxton said as Bella was busy nibbling on her bacon. “But isn’t she a doll?” Bella asked. “Paxton, you are so lucky to have such beauty. So, King Dominick is giving you a two-week break from work.” Dominick groaned as he glared at Bella. She then gently reached his face. “Hey, look at Paxton. He’s stressed. He needs a break. By the way, what’s the name of the doctor that attended you? You need to take a

    She should be in the kitchen. She should be sleeping. But then she wanted her sister to have safe food in the castle. They should have stayed at Bella's house. It was safer and she had a lot of stock. She doesn't know how much money Bella had but all of the family assets will surely be hers. Monique watched as the maids helped her. Although she insisted that she didn’t need help, they still would. Her mate doesn't want her to do these things known as chores. But it wasn’t a chore for her. She knew how to do simple tasks andshe enjoyed it. She remembered that her mother and grandparents would always cook food all together. She would join as well and the best thing was enjoying their company. She noticed that one of the maids poured something on one of the soups. She then watched from her peripheral vision andshe could smell it as well. She’s half wolf and half vampire. She didn’t bother interrupting her but she knew well how she did it. “Deliver that to Duke Paxton’s room. He and he

    He would leave me… Winter has already. This is the reason why she told him that she was not good enough for his mate. He’s a Duke and he can’t marry someone disabled with a severed tongue. She covered her face as she started sobbing. Her mate was there in front of her frozen, unable to respond but after a few seconds, he pulled her wrists. “Who did it?” He asked. “Tell me who did it?” His eyes were murderous… more dangerous than she had ever seen anyone. “Write it.” He said as he quickly searched for pen and paper. She sobbed and he wanted to throw everything in anger. It was cut? Fuck it. All he could see was red. He wanted to kill someone. He wanted to torture the person who did it to her. He didn’t realize that Bella entered when they didn’t hear the knocking. “Paxton! Did you make her cry?” Bella exclaimed as she quickly approached Winter. “Are you alright?” She asked. “Did he hurt you?” She shook her head as she rubbed her chest. Bella stood straight as she looked at Paxton.

    Paxton hesitates to leave the castle. But after his mate was nearly killed, he can’t stay here with a weak body. He placed the documents over the table and Ciel was checking everything. Then, he looked at the location where Caleb pointed as Monique finally entered. “There’s something in there…” Paxton said. They all looked at where he was pointing. “Cedric said that only Daniel’s could open it.” “Our blood?” Monique asked as she crossed her arms and scooped her chin. “I think Grandpa mentioned that. It said that it was their investigations through the people who committed treason in the castle. I think even a member of the royal family was involved.” Paxton’s eyes widened as he frowned. He found out that even his family might be involved. But whatever mistake they made, it’s still a treason. He was both anxious as Monique shook her head. “I won’t open it.” She said, “Bella could. I don’t have the blood of Daniels anymore.” “But it seems that you know what’s in there.” Ciel cros

    In the hospital. He hated hospitals. He was pacing back and forth while watching his pregnant wife with a stomach. Bigger than he imagined. She was carrying three heirs. He shook the idea. He doesn't want them to open her up as the doctor said that a C-section could be done. But she also doesn't want that to happen. “My Queen,” Dominick exhaled as he slowly approached her. She smacked him hard and he couldn’t help but pout. “This is your fault for fucking me! It was great…” She exhaled. “But you’ve given me three! Three at the same time.
