The preparation for the ball was all about the King’s engagement with Bella. From the House Daniels. Monique was helping Ciel gather all of the data for the possible suspects of the assassination.

Bella stared at the gown that Kyle chose for her engagement.

“White is perfect,” Kyle said while showing her the handmade sequence and trails.

“What would he wear?” She asked.

“A white tux, it’s like a pre-wedding.” Kyle clasped his hands.

“I see.” She crossed her arms. “I am not very fond of ball gowns. But this one looks heavy.”

“It has petticoats and layers to make it balloon. But don’t worry, it has pockets.” Kyle winked as she grinned.

“Perfect.”

She finally fit it in and since her stomach wasn’t that big, the dress fitted on her perfectly.

“Good job, Kyle. Did you design this?”

“Yes, of course,” Kyle said proudly.

    He gasped open, opening his eyes. He quickly searched for his beloved but seeing a silver head over his chest made him calm. Her breathing.. her touch. “Solenn…” She raised her head as she looked down at him. Her eyes were tearful and he reached it and wiped her tears. “Hey…” “You were not responding for three hours.” She cried and hugged him. “What happened?” He asked. “We can go now…” She mumbled. “We can go out now.” He remembers half of what happened but not the location of where they went. He sat up and kissed her forehead to assure her that everything was well.They headed back to the underground house and Caleb made sure to check on everything and he had the pond clean yesterday.

    Monique came with a new killing file. That involves noble people. All The dirt was out. She sat down and even showed up the people that Dominick killed. “Wow, this is accurate,” Dominick said. “I bet the person who recorded these was more than an assassin.” “This could be an organization,” Bella said. “Someone loyal to the King?” Paxton creased his brows. “I am curious…” “But why is there no record of the assassinations?” Monique asked as everyone was silent. “There could be so many killings that it might be recorded?” Ciel asked. “Or did the current handler die? And most of it wasn't recorded? There are loopholes as well.” Cedric said. Paxton cleared his throat and looked at Caleb. “How do you know about it, Caleb?” “What?” He asked. “That vault. You pointed it to me. Only the blood of Daniel can unveil it. And you also trusted me?”“Well,” Caleb shrugged. “Bella’s grandfather told me about it.” They all sighed.

He smiled at him andthe first thing he noticed was the gold tooth in front. “Do you like butterflies?” He asked. “I guess I do.” He mumbled. “You were mumbling ‘butterfly’.” He said. “It’s because I saw one… a blue one.” He grumbled. “Who are you?” He didn’t know how he got in the white leather seat. He looked around and couldn’t see his father. “Look at me.” The man said as he reached his chin and raised his forefinger. “I am here to make you forget about the pain.” “Pain?” He mumbled. “Pain of losing your mate.” He sighed. “I’m sorry. You are so young. You’ll be able to function after this. But in exchange, you must do things that your father needs.” He turned his head toward the other side. That’s when he noticed his father, standing still with arms crossed. “Father,” He called. “Where’s the mother? I need her.” “Oh, dear.” He mumbled. “Your mother can’t

Monique casually entered as she signed the assistant to leave.“Leave,” She said casually as the man bowed. “Good day, Duchess.” Paxton stood and as soon as the man left, she climbed over to the location of the vault and opened it. Then, she took out the paper that was sent by who knows who. Upon reading it. She froze and called him. “Paxton, I think this is for you.” “What?” He quickly told and approached him.

    Each of the family had their own curses. For Dominick’s family. Their blood was simply too much that only their fated mate could take it and bear children for them. For Daniel?

With half of their memories on. Some reincarnated on their doppelgängers. And for the Renzo family. Paxton’s family? He doesn't know their curse specifically. But they hold something. A big secret. Dominick waited at the entrance of the castle for her. It’s already sunset but they haven’t arrived yet and he’s getting worried. “Dominick, I need to leave,” Paxton mumbled. “What? You just came back.” Dominick frowned.
