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
“This must stop. NOW.”Aurora gritted with rage burning inside of her.“Baron…that son of a bitch deserves to die a thousand times.”Angelina nodded, “I was glad that you came to me today, Aurora. If you didn’t step out, I doubt anyone would ever do.”She paused and let out a sarcastic snort, “And i
“There isn’t!”He chuckled lowly, “Fine. Then what should we do before bedtime?”“You can read to me. There is a novel on the nightstand.”With one arm still wrapped around her shoulder, he reached over and grabbed the book.Turning the book to the page that she folded, he started reading.He had a
Her heart was thumping so crazily that she was afraid that he might hear the sound of her heartbeat.But she didn’t let her panic show.“Do you have a trusting issue, Westin?” she asked, pretending to be vexed.“Don’t make this about me, my love.” He raised an eyebrow while saying, “First you manage
“Hey what are you talking about over there? We need our pitcher,” Westin cried to them in the distance.Aurora laughed and patted on Clemente’s shoulder, “You should get back in there.”The game lasted for hours till the moon moved to the center of the night sky.Eventually stewards had to step in a
He kept going till her angry screams completely faded in the distance.***When Clemente returned to the castle, it was already approaching nightfall.He immediately wanted to report back to Aurora.Yet a soldier by the front gate said that the King needed him in the training field.So he turned and
Agnes stared at him.The horrified look faded from her face.Eventually, her face became expressionless.“Yes,” she uttered.“…What?”“I said yes.” Agnes let out a light chuckle, “You were asking me for an answer. I am answering you right now—Yes. I do want Westin for myself.”Clemente gritted his t
“And you are defending her!”Tears streaming down Agnes’s cheeks as she shrieked:“Do you know what a hard time she gave me a couple of days ago? She expelled me from my own tea party, Clemente! How can you ever hang out with her? You swore to your brother on his deathbed that you would always help
After a long while, Clemente put the pregnancy stick into his pocket and picked up the lemonade again.He crossed the lawn and found Aurora and the twins by the water fountain.“You are back!” Belle jumped up as soon as she saw him, “Come and smell the roses, Clemente. The gardener just picked it ou
“Of course, it will!”Belle answered right away:“The fog in the mist forest had nothing to do with the weather. It is a magical power that protects our Kingdom 24/7…”She paused.And then started to giggle, “…kind of like Clemente!”Wells rolled his eyes, “I didn’t know why Westin sent this guy to
Aurora’s mind went blank for a second.Although she had seen this coming, she had not prepared for this.There was actually a baby inside of her body, a baby she could not protect.How would Westin react to this?He would certainly be enraged.He hated Damien to his gut, and he would hate Damien’s k
