Aurora couldn’t stop thinking what Damien said about giving them a second chance.Truth to be told, she found his proposal ridiculous.Who made Damien think that there was a chance for them to start over?He also rejected her cold-heartedly when she was in danger.And she hadn’t even mentioned the c
Owen was their only hope now.They all counted on Owen to become brilliant in the army and persuaded Damien to forget about their tax problem.Thinking about all of those pressures that he was under, Owen glared at Aurora and snarled, “You listen to me, you piece of shit! Stay out of my way! Or I wi
Aurora’s hand froze on the doorknob.She heard that woman said to Damien in a sweet voice, “Alpha, don’t you ever get tired of all these works? The day is beautiful outside. Let’s go for a picnic. Or go hunting in the forest.”“I have works to do.” Damien’s voice was cold. But he didn’t push that wo
Damien breathed out a heavy sigh, “I understand your frustration, Aurora. But it isn’t that easy. Baron’s family is very powerful.”“Even more powerful than their Alpha?” Aurora asked sarcastically.Damien pretended that he didn’t notice Aurora’s sarcastic tone and said, “Baron’s father—the former G
The witness Aurora wanted to talk to was Maxie.Although Baron hadn’t been very nice to Maxie, he trusted her very much. He brought her to the first between-packs competition, and he even let her fill in as the substitute trainer while he was absent.Maxie must know something about his shady deals.
These two maids look horrified.“Gamma Aurora, what are you talking about? How would we know what happened to Miss Maxie?” one maid said stiffly.“I heard what you said earlier. And please don’t be afraid. I am not going to tell you off. On the contrary, I am here to help so you can totally trust me
Now, however, Chloe seemed as though she must have aged at least 10 years within 10 days.Her hair was messy and greasy like it hadn’t been washed for a long time. And her skin was no longer smooth due to the lack of attention. She was dressed in a ragged, old clothes with many patches and dirty sta
“Are you doing alright at the Chloe front?”Aurora asked Angelina as they went into her office.“Good. It is a lot of work trying to keep her out of troubles. But there is nothing I can’t handle.”Angelina closed the door with her shoulder and walked to the fridge. “Something to drink? Water? Iced t
She turns to the doctor, “Run a couple of tests on her. Now.”Two soldiers jumped at her, pinning her on the spot.The doctor got up to her and took out a needle, tubing, and collection vials.…They were going to take her blood!Aurora’s body tensed all over.If they used her blood to run a DNA test
“Queen Aurora! Open the door! Elder Madeline wants to see you!”Aurora sat by the window and turned to look at the closed door.“Tell Elder Madeline that I am not feeling well and prefer to be alone,” she said coldly.“You are not feeling well, which is exactly why Elder Madeline wants to see you! Y
The swear.She didn’t know the consequences that bore with it back then.Now she knew.Bound by that oath, she was physically forbidden to disclose that secret.It was her own doing.Desperate tears streamed down Aurora’s cheeks as she choked, “D—Damien…God…Please trust me…”“Trust you what?”He too
Aurora couldn’t believe what she was seeing with her own eyes.…Damien?How did Damien get in here?! She thought that there was no way either of them could pass that misted forest!And why didn’t he bring more soldiers? He was here alone, how dangerous!And Westin…It seemed that Westin knew Damien w
Amidst the sea of lilies, fairy lights on the archways and trees twinkled like stars, casting a soft, warm glow.The gentle rustle of leaves, the occasional flutter of butterflies, and the distant murmur of a mountain stream added to the dreamy serenity.A path paved by pedals winded through the sea
Aurora stopped laughing.A nostalgic and slightly sad feeling surged up in her chest.Yeah…When was the last time that he made her laugh?“…Back in the Grace Ruin,” she said lowly eventually.“The Grace Ruin.” Westin nodded, “We were facing a lot of dangers and you didn’t even know who I am. But it
Elder Medline was the only person who remained sitting.She crossed her arms and looked at Aurora with a critical eye.“What is with the waistline?” she asked.“What about it?”“It doesn’t fit. And it makes your waist look like a bucket,” she said with a tone of asperity. “The tailors should close u
Aurora held her breath involuntarily.Westin didn’t mention that he had a godmother.And she didn’t remember seeing Elder Medline on any occasion before. It almost felt as though Elder Medline had been deliberately avoiding her.Elder Medline cast a warning look upon Aurora and turned to Annie, “Ris
Aurora sighed.…It was going to be a long day.They arrived at the fitting room and the maids opened the door for them.Everyone in the room stood up and curtseyed to them upon their arrival.“Queen Aurora,” they said in unison.Aurora’s eyes flickered to a girl in the back of the crowd.Annie.She
