Maxie froze.She was struggling internally.On the one hand, there was her pride and dignity; yet on the other hand, there was her families.After a painful long pause, she chose the latter and slowly buried her face down to Baron’s shoe.Baron and Owen crackled with laughter as she did.Maxie was t
The only way left for her was to do dirty works for Baron and kept her mouth shut about everything.And she could handle these, as long as her families were safe.Maxie ran out of the training field and jumped in her car. She started the engine and raced toward the direction of that location.The la
Damien’s soldiers poured into the lumber camp and controlled all guards. All labors in the camp were shivering in fear.Rivena quickly went to calm these people down.Maxie still couldn’t believe what Aurora was saying, “But how did you know where my families are…”Damien walked over and answered on
Maxie dropped the whip and turned back to Aurora and Damien. Grateful tears were shinning in her eyes.“Thank you…Alpha Damien, for stepping up for me and my family.” She choked, “And Gamma Aurora, thank you for getting to the bottom of this. I treated you terribly earlier today and I feel awful…”“
Aurora had to breath deeply to calm herself down.“You are doing it again,” she said and tilted her head, putting a little distance between them. There was a hint of accusation in her voice.“Doing what?”“Treating me like an innocent little girl and trying to fool me with sweet talks.” Aurora strug
Aurora brought Maxie to meet with Damien and together they worked out a plan. After nailing down the details, Maxie went to talk to Baron at his house as they had discussed.The front door to Baron’s house was shut and all curtains tightly closed. There were some angry civilians and journalists outs
Half an hour later, a large group of soldiers poured into Baron’s front yard. They attracted a lot of people’s attention on their way coming down there. So right now there was a group following them, watching them avidly.There were even some discussions among the watching crowd:“What is the fuzz h
Maxie slightly parted her lips as though she couldn’t believe what Damien just said.And so was everyone else.They were all staring at Damien and Maxie, dumbfounded, as this information sank in.Aurora was the first one to start clapping. She smiled looking at Maxie and cried, “Go Maxie!”Maxie’s f
“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
