“Disperse!” Roul gave instructions, and the knights immediately spread out into formation to protect every guest in the room.
“Oh, my God! You guys are overreacting. I just came here to congratulate my little sister. You must be pleased to see your brother come. Rright, Honey?” Aiden walked into the hall.
“If all of you didn’t try anything funny, I wouldn’t do anything too,” he added when he saw all the knights glaring at him, like a beast staring at its prey.
The royal knights were currently looking at Aiden warily. After all, the safety of the people there was their priority.
Aiden sat in a guest seat when the seat owner stood up and looked at him fearfully. He then drank the wine that was on the table and put on a very relaxed attitude.
Anwen couldn’t blink and kept looking at her brother, Aiden, in disbelief.
“How could something as important as this be kept secret from us?” Richard D. Scarlet was still upset.“As I said earlier, it was only based on the king’s presumption. Although there were things that made our suspicion even stronger, there was no concrete proof yet. Everything is still speculation. His Majesty the King has not announced this to avoid unnecessary anxiety.” Trish responded calmly.“I don’t understand. Isn’t Gerald already killed by Aathreya? How can he help Aiden?” This time it was Myles Camilo who asked the question.“Aathreya suspects that Gerald’s soul is not destroyed. He said that Aiden and Gerald made a soul contract. It seems Gerald gives his power to Aiden for revenge, and in exchange, Aiden will give his body to Gerald after his goal is achieved. When Gerald has Aiden’s body, he will come back alive," explained Trish.&
“Do you want revenge?” Anwen asked as she raised one of her eyebrows.“Yes,” Trish replied. He looked back at the girl who had officially become his wife a few hours ago.“So, you married me because you want revenge?” Anwen asked again.“Yes.”Anwen stood up.“Get out! We are divorced!” she growled while pointing towards the door. When Trish heard that, he smirked.While looking at Anwen, he said, “Think carefully before kicking me out. I’m afraid that if I leave, you will cry.”Trish leaned back and crossed his arms.“Trishy… sob... please don’t go,” he said mockingly, mimicking Anwen’s expression.Anwen’s eyebrows dived down sharply. “Are you mocking me?”
The cold air made people huddle under the thick blankets or stay in front of the fireplace. However, the newlyweds in the dimly lit room were busy rocking the bed.After giving a fair share to the right and left mounds, Trish pulled out his prided sword that he had never used on any battlefield. Even though it was never used, it didn’t mean it was rusty.Anwen held her breath when she saw that. It was huge and didn’t seem to be knocked out easily. She actually married a true knight.Out of curiosity, Anwen held it. She gulped nervously as she felt how big it was. For some reason, she was afraid if it entered her, would it fit?She closed her eyes as Trish climbed over her and prepared to penetrate. Her eyes shut even tighter when she felt the sword's tip touch her down there.“Ahk.” She winced in pain as Trish pushed his sword inside.Three seconds later, she opened her eyes and groaned softly. She felt the pain grow
“Don’t put on a fake smile in front of me,” Trish said to Kaven.Hearing that, Kaven’s smile slowly faded, and his face became more serious. Trish watched Kaven change calmly.“Why did you do it? I know you really like Anwen,” Trish asked.“I do like her, but like I said, I will never hurt a woman. It is the principle I have maintained until now, and I will maintain it for the rest of my life,” Kaven said firmly.“What’s more, I know she loves you, and you love her. I am the third person among you. Anwen was forced to accept her marriage to me. I saw her smiling when she was with me, but her eyes showed different things. During the test, I repeatedly saw her looking at you, Chief. At first, I thought it was because you are close. I didn’t think those feelings existed between you two until that incident finally happened."Kaven took a deep breath and continued his speech.&ldqu
The morning sun gently shone on the surface of the snow, but its warmth couldn’t wash away the cold air that pierced through the skin.Trish and Odette were standing face to face under the falling snow. Odette had asked Amy and Elis for help to devise an excuse so that Lucifer stopped trailing behind her and she could have a chance to meet Trish.“War?” She stared at Trish in disbelief. In her whole life, she had never thought that she would get stuck in the middle of a war.It seemed Odette would also experience the things experienced by the queens that she had read in webnovels or what she had seen in films.As if that wasn’t enough to scare her, Trish told her another thing that frightened her even more: Gerald and the dark race who were after her because of the existence of the divine sapphire’s power within her.Trish explained that additional troops would guard the queen and king. They were the Wizard Knights of
“You still don’t want to be honest with me?” asked Lucifer while looking straight at Odette.“Those two people aren’t your family, are they?” he added.Odette fell silent. She didn’t know what to answer. She wanted to tell him everything and thought of asking Lucifer to help wake up Rion, but she felt scared again.She had to take a huge risk of doing something that didn’t work out, but she still felt she had to do something in this situation. Rion had to return to lead the kingdom.“If you still don’t want to be honest, that’s okay,” Lucifer said.“Are you mad?” Odette looked at him.“No. I told you I would wait. I trust that you won’t hurt me.”Odette fell silent. Even though Lucifer already knew he was drugged, the man wasn’t mad about it. Did she have any hope of telling him the truth?A moment later, Odette smiled. S
“Your Highness.” Amy approached Odette. She gave the queen the medicine and supplements from Doctor Alex.“Are you really all right?” She asked worriedly after seeing Odette’s face was very pale. The girl really looked like a ghost now.“I think my blood pressure is dropping from thinking about all the troubles that are going on. Don’t worry, it’s nothing serious,” Odette said reassuringly.Amy nodded and looked deeply into Odette.“What is it?” As Amy kept looking at her, Odette asked as if the woman wanted to say something but hesitated.“Are you sure it’s just low blood pressure, Your Highness? What if there are other causes like… you’re pregnant?” said Amy, making Odette stunned.It had never crossed her mind before.“Wh-why do you think like that?”“From your face, I feel like it is the cause,” Amy expla
Jack stood up and adjusted the green coat he was wearing. He then crossed his arms and looked at Odette with a tilted head.“What did you say?” He rubbed his chin in contemplation.“I want to be your friend,” Odette replied without hesitation.A beautiful arch, like a crescent moon, etched into Jack’s lips. Two seconds later, he turned around, saying, “No way.”“Why?”“You are an evil woman!” shouted Jack.“I’m going to change. I—I’m being rude because I— because I love you so much. I’m crazy about you. I don’t want to see you with other girls,” Odette exclaimed, feeling like swallowing a mosquito as she said it to Jack.Hearing that, Jack turned around and smiled crookedly, looking very annoyed in Odette’s eyes.Jack nodded his head. “You are beautiful, but you are… a little too old for me.&rdquo
