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
The news of Baron being thrown into jail spread across the Silver Blade Pack fast. Soon everyone knew about it.And that included the Ravenwood.Hellen was in the dining room having lunch with Paul when the news broke out. She got so mad that she poured a whole pot of hot tea onto a maid’s face and
Hearing Aurora’s proposal, Owen couldn’t help but burst out laughing.“You want to do a one-on-one with me?”Owen stepped forward, cracking his knuckles. There was an arrogant smile on his lips.“Forgot how I used to punch you like a sack of potato when we were little? Missing all those bruises and
Maxie spoke up with a cold voice, “The duel has clear rules. Each participant is responsible for their own life and death. Aurora doesn’t need to pay you a damn thing even if she kills your son right here today.”“What?” Hellen cried, “We never heard such rules! It doesn’t count!”“It is written in

One drew out his sword and held it against Blanc’s throat.“My…My King…Is this punishment too severe?” Ellington said in a small voice, “Lady Blanc is a noble nevertheless…And nothing happened to the young master really…”“Anyone who plead for Blanc will be punished by the same standard,” Damien sai
Blanc’s breathing quickened.She tried to shake Aurora off.But it felt as though Aurora’s grip was made of iron. She couldn’t break free.In horror, she turned to Damien for help and cried out in a pitiful voice, “M—My King, please talk some sense into her! I am a Luna candidate! She can’t disrespe
“ENOUGH.”Damien spoke up and silenced the whole crowd.“There was no point arguing about this.” He said in a cold voice, “Take these cookies and cake to the lab and see if there is any peanut in it. The truth will speak for itself.”The soldiers received his order and hurried out of the lounge agai
Damien narrowed his eyes. “Are you telling me how to rule my kingdom?”Ellington’s mouth dropped open, “No…Of course not…I wouldn’t dare…”“And it makes me wonder why you are targeting Lady Kurt.” Damien let out a snort, “You wouldn’t think that you will naturally become Luna once I punish Lady Kurt
“Aspen…ASPEN!”Aurora took the boy in her arms and cried, “Bring the car! To the hospital NOW!”Some people hurried to bring over a car.Gabriel shivered by Aurora’s side. “H—He was alright just a second ago…What happened? Is it…poison?”“Allergy.” Aurora gritted. “Aspen is allergic to peanuts!”The
There were only 3 days left before Aspen chose the final 3.So every lady was out there doing their best to win over the boy’s heart.Some of them brought Aspen handmade cookies; some tried to buy him off with expensive jewelries; one lady even hired an entire circus to the packhouse just to make th
Damien widened his eyes.He saw a woman’s face, which was covered by dreadful burns and scars.Her skin got licked by flames so hard that it was almost impossible to recognize her original features.This was not the scene that he expected to see when he removed that mask.The room lapsed into a deat
Damien’s breathing quickened.That woman…how dared she lie to him!And most importantly, why would she hide her real identity?Who was she, really?Damien ended the phone call and went back to the dining hall.He took a deep look at the woman sitting next to Aspen. She was still wearing that mask ev
The elder cleared his throat awkwardly.He wanted to rule out Janine Kurt as well.But the King clearly said that he wanted her to stay. He didn’t show as much interest to the other ladies, only to this one.As astonishing and ridiculous as it might seem, this Janine Kurt might actually be the winne
