Amber's POV His gaze grew dimmer, only emptiness could be seen in his gray eyes. "I... am a murderer. I... am a monster," said Everett with a blank look. Those gray eyes looked so miserable. I don't really understand Everett's ambiguous words. But, I think I'm starting to understand the current situation. "It doesn't matter." Everett looked very surprised when I suddenly hugged him. "Wh... are you going to hate me after you know that? I... am not as good as you think. Amber... I..." "Shhh, it's okay." Everett was shocked again when I put my finger to his lips. His gray eyes stared at me in disbelief. I stared deeply at the gray bead. I don't know where the courage came from, I was able to look into his eyes this intensely. "Do you understand what I'm saying?" Everett asked as he started to bury his face in the crook of my neck. "Maybe. I think I've heard of that tragedy before. So, that tragedy is related to you?" "After that incident, Nash began to have ambitions to
Amber's POVFinally, we went home and arrived at the castle at noon. I saw that the party preparations for welcoming Khanza were almost complete. Tonight's event looks like it will run smoothly and calmly. I saw children running around and accidentally one of them bumped into me who was walking. "So - sorry," said the little girl named Marry. “It's okay darling, are you hurt?” I asked worried about her. Marry looked at me and shook her head. She smiled very sweetly. Then a boy who looked very much like Marry came up to me. "I'm sorry, my little sister," said Steven, bowing his body. "It doesn't matter, it was my fault that Marry accidentally bumped into me," I said, stroking both of their heads. “Do you guys want candy?” asked Everett who came after me. Everett seemed to really like the twins. "Want to!" the two exclaimed as they took the candy given by Everett. "Thank you," continued the two and just left. Leaving Everett smiling at me. "Why are you following me?"
Amber's POV I sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Khanza who was sleeping with a sad look. Have I forgotten to pay attention to Khanza these few days? I didn't realize she had a scar like this on her neck. The scar looked new, even though it had been treated a long time ago. It seems that Khanza is very tormented by the pain that comes from the scar. The affection that arose when I saw her for the first time made me regret not having paid closer attention to her. So far I've lost a lot of valuable things, and I don't want to lose any more. I woke up from my reverie when I heard the sound of Khanza waking up from her sleep. "Khanza..." I called and I saw the little girl looking at me with a look that I couldn't decipher. "Sorry for disturbing your rest time, Amber," said Khanza politely. The girl smiled with her pale face. I was a little surprised to see her attitude today. Moreover, her situation looked very different compared to when I first met her. The girl's body
Everett's POV On the way, I felt something strange. The sky felt empty with no wind blowing at all. As if time had stopped, only a few crows were continuing to fly above there. And sure enough, suddenly my car stopped instantly. Made me amazed. "What is it?" I asked confused. Ian shook his head not knowing. "I'll go out first, wait here," he said and got out of the car. I couldn't wait and immediately came down. As soon as I got out of the car. My eyes are perfectly round. Suuuts.. With quick movements, I deflected the wooden arrow. I saw that there was writing on the cloth attached to the arrow. "'Hurry back' What does that mean? Who shot this arrow?" Reflexively, I started looking for the owner of this arrow. And bingo! Behind the tree, I saw someone in a red hood watching me before he was swallowed by the darkness of the forest. "Who's he?" “Mr. Everett!” Ian shouted and distracted me and walked over to him. I turned my gaze to everyone who was now looking at
Amber's POV I closed my eyes when I saw a very scary figure walking towards me. My body felt stiff, now I was too afraid to move my body at all. A gust of wind hit my body. The sound of the rogue's footsteps could not be heard again. The terrifying aura seemed to disappear. I slowly opened both eyes. He is no longer in this room. I looked around looking for him but to no avail. He wasn't in the room at all. Suddenly a big bang startled me. I gasped in surprise when I felt the floor shaking slightly. I widened my eyes realizing one thing. I quickly ran towards the collapsed wall where the rogue had hit it and knocked his body down. I looked down. There were rogues and Everett who were glaring at each other. "Who are you? What are you doing here?" shouted Everett with passionate anger. I don't know when Everett came back. However, there was a feeling of relief that made me calmer. I couldn't hear what the rogue was saying. But I clearly heard him faintly mention a
Amber's POV I was surprised to see a figure that looked familiar. I know him, the guard who always guards my room every night. The figure who once looked kind and not rude has now turned into a very scary figure. I don't understand at all why Jack could change like this. His figure was very scary and made me almost unable to move my body. It seemed that Khanza was starting to control himself when Jack came to kneel in front of us. There was a sound from the girl that made me look at her in disbelief. "Jack," she whispered weakly. Apparently, Jack is her older brother. But, how is that possible? Did they talk to each other while Khanza was there? Could this be what made Nash make Jack a creature who turned into a monster with an irregular body shape? What magic has Nash given and made Jack so scary like that? When Jack looked at us, the hairs on the back of my neck stood up. Khanza cried seeing Jack like that. With a body that had been torn apart, Jack looked different.
Everett's POV Early in the morning, I went out of the castle with Ian to meet someone I had been waiting to hear from for a long time. Yesterday's incident made me impatient to carry out my plan to attack Nash. His actions were very dangerous and almost cost me my life. I still clearly remember how I slashed Jack that night. Crazy magic power that makes it difficult to kill. If I didn't think quickly and take Jack away from the castle, perhaps Amber and the rest of the pack would be in danger. And worst of all, I will lose Amber forever. "Can he be found yet?" Ian asked on the way. “No, I can't be more patient than this. It's time for us to carry out our real plan," I answered with a little hesitation. On the edge of a calm river, I could see a figure meditating on a large rock. Slowly I came closer to him. However, he, who was disturbed, immediately opened his eyes and quickly transformed himself into a tall and big wolf and prepared to attack. But he stopped when he s
Ruby's POV After Nash was so sweet about my pregnancy after only three days, he left me alone more often after that. Never saw me again or even let me come to see him. I was very upset and angry, but couldn't do anything. His attitude often changes and makes me unpredictable. It was still half past nine in the morning when my eyes glanced at the watch on my wrist. I thought it was too early to go to Nash's room, but I had a firm grip on my determination to find Nash and tell him about my growing pregnancy. The only way to stop this time bomb in my stomach is to come to meet Nash. You should get him to ask for accountability and certainty from him. I confirmed the spontaneous advice given by my wolf who often appeared because of my anxiety every night about my pregnancy. How come? Nash really never kept his promise to make me his queen. As if my pregnancy wasn't important to him, but even so, he really cared about my pregnancy. My food is maintained and the doctor will alw
