[Seraphine's POV]The first impression I captured from the title of the Maximilian High Council was that they were an organization formed by a group of powerful young Alphas. But what I see now feels completely different from what I had in mind.These two palace maids escort me and help me walk toward the special room on the sixth floor. A pair of giant wooden doors adorned with gold greet my arrival.When the gates open, there is a long and magnificent table filled with middle-aged men and a woman. They are wearing the distinctive Maximilian royal attire with a touch of gold. However, the members of the High Council appear too old in my eyes."Are you the girl named Seraphine Valentina?" A woman, who is also the only female in the room, greets me as soon as I step in.She bears a resemblance to Cassian Maximilian's mother (whose name I forgot). The difference is that this woman has intensely blue irises, like a painted cat.I am confused about how to respond to her greeting. When I g
[Seraphine's POV] "Let go of my hair." I jerked him, who was still calmly touching my long strands without stopping. A tinge of disappointment colored Cassian's handsome face, illuminated by the morning sun. I didn't care. Me, the annoyance I felt after learning what his family had done to the Omegas still lingered and hurt me. "Are you angry at me?" he asked. And my response was a curt face, avoiding his gaze. "Seraphine," he called me again. It felt like there was something different in the way he said my name. Indeed, Cassian's voice was much softer than usual. The Cassian I knew always spoke with arrogance or coldness, just like the arrogant Alpha I knew. But now, all I felt was tenderness. And everything became even more mixed up when I realized he was touching the palm of my hand and stroking it. "W-what are you d-doing?" Suddenly, I felt my voice stuttering. Cassian surprised me even more as he pulled my hand and placed his soft lips on my fingers. *kiss* He kissed the
[Seraphine’s POV]"C-Cassian ... Stop all of this ..."I struggled to avoid Cassian's lips as they continued to attack my neck. Our powers were vastly different, and it only got worse as I tried to cover my stomach.There were so many things I didn't want Cassian to know about me. Since I found out how Cassian's noble family viewed and treated Omega races, I became even more certain that I shouldn't tell him about my pregnancy.‘This baby will surely be used by his family. I can't allow that,’ I thought to myself."Nggh ..." I let out a moan as Cassian suddenly squeezed my breasts tightly.I didn't know when his fingers had slipped into my underwear and touched the two mounds of flesh."Ah ..."Now, his mouth kissed the tip of my breast. The warm and wet sensation accompanied the pleasurable shivers I felt. I grabbed a pillow next to me to cover my face. I couldn't let these moans continue to fill the air while I tried to resist his affections."Seraphine, don't hold back your moans."
[Seraphine’s POV]The oral I gave was intense and intoxicating. It took a toll on my jaw as well. My mouth felt like it would come off if I continued to devour Cassian's penis any longer."Mnh ..."I glanced briefly while my mouth was still full, and Cassian seemed to be on the verge of climax. This was my chance. I used both my hands to support the oral by massaging the parts of his penis that my mouth couldn't reach. Meanwhile, I continued to suck and suck his genitals with my tongue."Ah!"Finally, what I had been waiting for arrived. Cassian achieved his first ejaculation thanks to my efforts to speed up the movements. All thanks to my reflexes, I was able to avoid the spurts of ejaculated semen from Cassian."Ha ... Ha ..." Cassian sounded breathless. Understandable. The oral I gave drained a lot of energy.Not just him, but me as well. To cover up my exhausted body movements, I quickly grabbed a towel from the table to wipe my face, which had been hit by the spray of semen.I th
[Seraphine’s POV]"We don't need your money!"Reges shouted boldly at Cassian. And not only that, both of us were surprised to find that the bag Reges had been carrying was filled with gold coins.Reges threw the bag at Cassian with a burst of emotion. As a result, thousands of gold coins were scattered on the ground in such abundance."Take the money! We don't need it anymore! It's ten times the price you paid when we sold Seraphine. It should be more than enough for you to return our child!"With determination, Reges approached me, still in the embrace of his wife. Both Cassian and I were equally stunned by what was happening before us.Cassian was speechless. I'm sure he was the most surprised one here. Under his feet, thousands of gold coins covered the grass on the ground. Cassian certainly didn't expect to receive that much money in return.Especially from Reges, who wanted me to be returned."Reges, what does all this mean? Where did you get all these gold coins?" I asked Reges
[Seraphine's POV]"The person who spread the virus is a resident of this village. We were just late to realize it. And it was already too late when everyone had already been infected by the deadly virus," Reges explained, his face almost in tears.While I'm here, bearing the heavy burden I have to go through afterward. They don't know what kind of virus is attacking them, so they can still be relaxed like this.Unlike me and Cassian, who understands very well how dangerous the virus is if it's not resolved immediately. And it doesn't mean that I, being here, can help them."Reges, tell me where the house of the person who spread the virus in this village is," I requested.Instead of answering, the couple exchanged glances. They seemed to be searching for signals on how to answer my question.I knew it, something is not right here."The person who spread the virus is already dead, Seraphine," Marilyn said fearfully. "He was the first to be infected and the first to die from the virus."
[Seraphine's POV]"If that's the case ... Can you show me how to activate the curse? I'm not asking you to curse anyone, no. That's a crime. You could be punished by the king. But I need to see the process if you want this village to be safe."The husband and wife were swayed by my words and set aside their emotions. Reges secured his longsword again, as did Marylin, who shifted her focus away from my pregnancy.That night, the three of us visited an old house that Marylin promised would have a ritual taking place.I truly hoped that this time I would get some clues. If my suspicions were correct, there was a connection between the village's ability to summon curses and the virus that was plaguing Silverbook Haven Village._____________"First, this curse requires blood to summon the God of Death to lend us its power. The blood must come from an elder of the village who participates in the curse summoning.""The curse will manifest wi
[Seraphine's POV]Unbeknownst to me, at some point, my body was filled with cold sweat as I forced myself to search for useful memories in this place. My breath was ragged, and my head throbbed. And despite all that, I still hadn't found anything."It's pointless. There are no important memories here." Finally, I surrendered and ended my vision.With a staggering body, I remained standing here, pondering where else I could search. This was the only place where I could extract information, considering the few clues we had."Wait. I think I saw the first person infected with the virus being buried here. Is that true?" Just before I turned around and left, my memory shifted to a voice from my vision that mentioned something in this place.Hastily, I immediately searched for the mentioned grave. It was difficult since this place was almost leveled with the ground. I rummaged through the debris of burnt houses for quite some time to find traces of a grave.‘I could use my powers to find th
