Rain had a big fight with her father because Mark Orwell brought a woman into his apartment for the night. Grown-up Rain feels uncomfortable with her father's new lover.

Tears started to well up Rain. She realized that her relationship with her father was never good during her stay in Haridra City. Apart from arguing, there was nothing more they could do together. Rain rarely visited the man when her father was hospitalized after the accident. However, she always sends money for her father's medical expenses.

Rain's memories also returned when she woke up in the hospital just moments after having an accident with her father. Mark Orwell sat by the hospital bed with Rain, his head and hands bandaged.

"You ran into a busy street just like that after we argued. Then, a garbage truck hits you. I ran after you. In the end, we got hit together." Mark Orwell laughed even though his face was bandaged with a very thick bandage.

"What happened? I don't remember anything before today." Rain

    They use the elevator to get to the restaurant. But, when they arrived on the 29th floor, the elevator stopped. Passengers were coming in. When the elevator opened, Rain and Jace looked up simultaneously. A group of men will take the elevator. Their gazes met, and Rain gaped. When the elevator doors opened, Jace immediately hugged Rain's shoulders with his muscular and possessive arms. Jace even pulled the hood of the girl's jacket to cover Rain's head so that half of her face could not be seen. Jace never let go of his arms until the three new passengers about to enter the elevator stood frozen in the doorway. From under the hood of her coat, Rain could see the three men dressed very fashionable with knee-length coats to complete their appearance. Surprisingly the three men suddenly bowed and gave Jace a royal salute. "Your Majesty, it is an honor to see you here. This is very surprising," said the man standing in the middle. "Come in. I don't mind sharing the elevator with you g

    "The man wasn't watching. I agree with you," replied another colleague. The three of them surrounded Rain right in front of the restaurant entrance. The three young men almost the same age as Rein was standing in front of her. Rain didn't recognize them. However, their expressions were extremely threatening. "You?" Rain muttered when she realized the three of them looked familiar to her. One of them carried a large bow on his shoulder, and another man had a long sword at his waist. A third man flaunted a gun under his coat. The girl trembled for a moment. "Werewolves," thought Rain. "Those who were in the elevator before!" "The Darkwood King hid this girl. She knows us well. Joe, should we take her now?" said the man standing in the middle of his two companions. Rain started walking backward in fear. She didn't know where Jace was now. However, the restaurant was tranquil. When Rain stepped for the second time, suddenly, Rain's back hit something that felt hard and soft. She st

    "Prickly black rose!" Jace said as he read the contents inside the envelope. "What does it mean?" Rain got increasingly annoyed and started to snatch the envelope from Jace's hand. She saw the contents firsthand with her own eyes. Her eyes were wide open. Rain showed the paper to everyone so they could read it. It was a letter paper made of a unique material that was very thin but not easily torn. The words were written in ink and with a goose feather pen. The letters look elegant. "This invitation to a gathering at the Westlake City Unity Building. I don't see anything special here other than the rose seal! And what is the purpose of this meeting? Why did the warlocks invite King Darkwood?" Rain did not understand the invitation and its meaning. "After the rebellion, all the shadow creatures split into two groups. The first group was affiliated with Mayor Flynn, and they agreed to cooperate with him. The second group is the excluded group. They are still loyal to the old king. Th

    "We'll see, Miss Orwell. I'm sure you won't regret my efforts tonight to turn you into a wonderful queen." Samantha, who had no face, couldn't even see how she looked; this time, Rain was sure that the shadow woman was grinning at her. Before Samantha left Rain's room, the girl tried to hold and tug at the sleeves of Samantha's clothes. Sam turned and looked at Rain with a black face without any form or expression. "Ng... um..." Rain said nervously while wringing her own hands. "Do I need a weapon or not? You too?" Sam suddenly stood stiffly facing Rain without a word. Around Sam's body, a black smoke sprang up as if it had fallen from the surface of his skin. "Don't be afraid, Miss Orwell. I'm showing my gun. I have a lot." Rain could feel Sam smiling at her even though her face had turned pitch black, without a nose, eyes, and mouth. Sam moved her hands, and black tendrils of smoke appeared from all over her body. "This is an example. My body is my weapon. These black smokes

    The train they rode through an old but very elite residential area. The buildings there all look very ancient and well-maintained. "How much do the houses here cost?" Benjamin asked Erica, who was sitting in a carriage. Samantha became his coachman. "Oh, believe me, Young Master, even my lifetime salary won't be able to buy a house in this area." Ben was surprised. "Is that expensive? If the house is old and looks unattractive, they will sell it cheaply." "On the other hand, Young Master, the older a building is and the longer the history it has, the higher its selling price." Erica answered all of Ben's questions without turning to look at him. At the same time, Ben was sticking his head out of the carriage window while looking at the old houses lined up neatly. The old housing estate has an elegant layout with many big, shady trees on either side. Some houses have been renovated to be more modern by adding high porches and balconies. However, the old impression is still felt f

    "This building?" Jace asked, pointing. "Are you sure this one? The building you see in your dream is a black door carved with roses. As for the door of this house…." Rain looked doubtful. "The buildings do look similar, even the same in my dream. But this door was completely different. There isn't a rose engraved on this door." "Alright, there's only one way for us to find out," replied Erica, who was standing beside them. Erica started walking up the steps of the building in front of them with firm and determined efforts. The house looked very old and dusty, and garbage filled the terrace. "Erica, what are you trying to do?" he asked. "Why are you so sure this building is the place to be? Even Rain herself hesitated. I thought it was just an ordinary abandoned building." "Your Majesty, I sincerely apologize; if this was an abandoned building, there shouldn't be any incandescent lamps burning on the terrace. Isn't this enough proof that there is life behind the door?" Erica spo

    Erica felt that her master had been despised. She moved so fast that no one even noticed her movements. Erica suddenly pushed the women so that her back hit the door and her feet lifted off the floor. "Who do you think you are? How dare you say that to my King?" At that moment, Rain saw Erica's proper form for the first time. A beautiful woman who looks like a perfectionist and always wears dark clothes when working, suddenly her face turns into a bulge of muscles and bones. From the top of her head came a pair of horns with scales covering the skin of her face. Even though Erica's body was still intact as a mortal woman, her head suddenly changed like that of a dragon in the mythological stories of the gods. Jace realized Rain was shivering beside him. The man immediately moved his left hand until it came out like a rope made of thin black smoke. The string of smoke wrapped around Erica's body and pulled her back. The housekeeper's Warlock fell to the floor, gasping for air. It l

    Rain gaped. All the guests in the banquet hall bowed at Jace in unison. Suddenly tears welled up in Rain's eyes. Something tickled her back and spread all over her skin. She had never felt the sensation of emotion, tension, and pride like that night. "I already told you, Rain. They were loyal followers of the Darkwood Kingdom. I'm sure tonight someone deliberately invited me to prove I am still worthy of being supported or not?" "Exactly, Your Majesty! That's our intention and purpose in inviting you to come here," said a man who suddenly came from one direction. Along with the man's appearance, everyone who had previously bowed in respect was now standing tall. The party was still going on, but they all fell silent to watch the host speak. "He?" Rain was surprised when she recognized the host. "Do you know him?" Benjamin suddenly approached Rain's side as Jace was busy greeting the host. Rain shook her head. "Not. I don't know him. However, I feel that his face is very familiar

    Rain walked out of Chiel Burley's private residence after single-handedly defeating the ripping demons. A few steps after crossing the street, Chiel's house exploded. Enormous flames soared into the night sky. Rain grinned while wiping the blood dripping down her forehead."The ripping demon must be buried with their maker. They must be ripped apart together and put into the deepest hell."Gazing up at the dark sky, the full moon shone brightly above her head. Black clouds rolled across the sky. Rain felt a very strong magical energy coming from somewhere.Erica had just arrived at the city of darkness, where she met West and briefly explained everything. Point in seconds, the entire army of darkness from the city of darkness rose and appeared at the border box together; they attacked the pack of wolves trying to protect the city. War is unavoidable.A large, dark creature with wide wings landed right before Rain. Rain had never seen this creature before, but she often heard its name

    Rain had turned around and was about to leave Chiel Burley's house. However, the warlock suddenly sat up straight while clutching his sore neck."Who gave you permission to leave here?" muttered Chiel.Rain's steps stopped, and she turned back to Chiel. "No one needs your approval or permission. You don't even have the right to speak before me!"The peak of the full moon is only a few hours away. Rain must quickly find Jace and save him. Rain didn't know that the impact of the curse she had given would be this terrible. Rain had to stop it before something worse happened.Chiel grinned. He stood up with difficulty and challenged Rain. The face of the warlock in the body of a 10-year-old boy looks annoying.Rain really can remember everything. Her past, especially her childhood. Rain remembered always playing together with Chiel in the Darkwood forest. There was one question that always bothered Rain's mind at that time. Chiel's body never grows old or taller, while Rain continues to g

    "You were born from a forbidden relationship between King Dauntess II and the palace witch—Alyssa Cruise," Chiel said to Rain."King Dauntess II? Jace Dauntess' father?" Rain almost screamed. "Not!"Rain's eyes flashed red. Something burst from within the girl."Markus Orwell is not your father! Your name should be Rain Cruise. Your mother—Alyssa Cruise, never married a king. You have no right to inherit the Dauntess name."Rain shook her head vigorously. A demonic figure that was uncontrollable and which Rain never realized was stored inside her is now present and wants to take the girl's consciousness.Rain choked Chiel's neck suddenly, very strong and fast. Rain pushed Chiel until he fell from his wheelchair. Rain forced the warlock against the wall as she continued to choke him.On the other hand, Haramon was lying unconscious with a pool of blood seeping from his head. Moments ago, Haramon tried to attack Rain, who threatened to kill Chiel. With just one swing of Rain's left hand

    Rain stood up, panting. She held her stomach, which felt like it was being stabbed. God knows how long and far she ran from the Darkwood forest to Westlake City. All the way in Rain's mind, there was only one name. Currently, the distance between Rain and the owner of that name was only separated by a double black door.Without hesitation, Rain immediately pressed the button beside the door hard, fast, and repeatedly. The owner of the house did not appear to answer the door. Rain has no more time. She's racing against time.Rain clenched her fists and started pounding on the black door with all her might. She no longer cared about the throbbing pain in her knuckles. She kept banging on the door like a madman.On the umpteenth bang, the door finally swung open. It was still too dark when the house owner was forced awake to receive a disturbing visitor."Where is Chiel?"Haramon, Chiel Burley's personal assistant, answered the door. He stood confused. His pair of sleepy eyes could not b

    The wolf's lips were drawn back so that its sharp teeth showed clearly. Rain saw his red tongue sticking out. There was hatred in his eyes when he saw Erica. It was hatred that was pure and uniquely human.Rain started to think. "The wolf is no stranger! But, where have I seen him before, huh? Was he the pack that attacked me in the Darkwood forest? Or is he part of Hardy's pack?"Rain's thoughts were broken when she heard Erica's voice."Are you coming for the girl or me?" With sweat pouring from her temples, Erica asked, but her hands were steady and tightly gripped by the whips in her hands.The wolf stepped towards Erica with a low growl."There's still time," Erica said. "Markus will definitely want to take you back. Just leave Mayor Flynn."With a growl, the wolf lunged. Erica shouted as she swung her whip in the air to chase the wolf into the wolf's side. The wolf backed away, and Rain saw the blood dripping between the dense fur. Blood flowed again as the wolf tried to attack

    After slapping Erica in such a daring manner, Rain wished she could glean some explanation about her father's connection to everything that had happened. However, Erica remained silent like an unshakable rock.The door closed behind Erica, leaving Rain alone in Jace's room. There was only Rain's heavy breathing and the sound of her fingertips trying to tug at the door handle and banging, all to no avail."Damn it! Erica locked me in here. What does she really want? And my dad, why is he involved in all this? He was behaving very strangely. He's not like my dad, but someone else who is a complete stranger."After trying various ways to escape Jace's room and failing, Rain finally smashed herself against the door again and again until she was tired. Her side ached. Rain slumped to the floor and tried not to cry."Somewhere, my dad is taking Jace somewhere, and I don't know what he's going to do with that young man. I should be more worried about my dad. But now, I feel disgusted and ang

    "I want your promise first," Erica said firmly one more time."First? You don't believe me, Erica?" Markus smiled humorlessly. "I will definitely do as you have asked. A promise is a promise. Although I was a bit surprised when I received your message. I didn't think you would mind living in a palace as grand as this. You never like being in silence?""You don't know how that feels," Erica hissed. "Every time I feel afraid if the child dies.""That's right. I don't know." Mark's voice sounded sad as if he pitied Erica. But there was dislike in Mark's eyes. There was also reproach in his tone. "If you haven't succeeded in resurrecting the witch, you shouldn't have called me here."Erica's face contorted. "It's not easy to restore her strength. People have to find a way, but nothing works. Including… us." Erica's voice trembled."You mean that fragile prince?" Markus turned to Jace, who was tangled in thorns on one wall. Mark chuckled. "Kids grow up fast, don't they?

    Rain heard Jace screaming in his room in the east tower. When Rain ran and pushed open Jace's bedroom door, she saw the room filled with swirling black mist.Rain was confused by the situation that occurred. When she approached while calling out Jace's name in panic, pain spread across Rain's arms, cheeks, and even all over Rain's body. The girl screamed. Then instinctively, Rain covered her face with her hands.Rain felt something wrapped around her body. Feels like the barbed wire that is sharp and stabbing. Rain squirmed and struggled. However, the entanglement felt increasingly piercing the skin until it penetrated the flesh."Not! What's this? Jace, are you all right? What's going on here?"Rain couldn't see anything other than the dense fog clumping around her. She thought Jace was again possessed by the monster inside him. However, Rain heard the sound of footsteps."That's enough!" shouted Erica in a calm voice.Erica waved her hand in front of her face, and instantly, the bla

    Rain turned to Erica and let go of the woman's grip. Then she turned to Ben. Now, Rain looked at Ben seriously and said something only they could hear."No one knows how to cure it," said Rain. "Jace has been injured by a powerful ripping demon. No mortal doctor knows how to treat a wound like that."Ben had already opened his mouth and was about to issue words to refute Rain's statement. Ben thought he had many different ways of treatment that may be Rain didn't know about. But, suddenly, Ben chose not to speak and fell silent. Ben realized it would all be in vain. Because Ben knows that when Rain has made a decision, the girl will not turn away from her commitment.Erica felt disappointed, and she thought Rain would instead join Benjamin. Erica did not blame the girl's decision. Because of the situation, if you look at it from anywhere, Jace looks really detrimental to Rain. Thus, Erica turned around and returned to her friends."She doesn't want to come with us?" asked Samantha dis
