Everything worked out perfectly.Chloe left the office room and returned shortly after with a trolley full of sorted grains and an empty sack.She opened the closet door and shoved Veronica’s body into that sack. Then she lifted that sack onto the trolley.Chloe pushed the trolley out of the office
Chloe clamped her mouth shut to stifle a scream.Veronica’s dead body was lying on the ground, right in front of her eyes. Blood was pooling. Chloe stepped back urgently to avoid her shoes being tainted.And she was shaking violently in fear. It took her almost a minute to utter, “Y—You killed her…”
“Oh yes. Very helpful. And I like her a lot!” Chloe nodded. “She told me how hard it was to live with the rogues. Poor girl, she has been through a lot. I am really glad that she is starting a new life right now.”Aurora and Angelina exchanged a look of delight.Both of them were pleased to see Chlo
There was a long, deadly silence.People all held their breaths in horror. Nobody could believe what they were seeing right now.Until a piercing cry broke the silence.Glen pushed through the crowd and darted towards the oak table. He held Veronica’s body in his arms, trying desperately to call her
“But don’t you want to know who killed Veronica?” Damien snapped, raising his voice. “Don’t you forget that the murderer is still out there!”Glen’s jaw clenched.After a small pause, he said abruptly, “I know who did it.”Everyone was stunned.Glen knew who killed Veronica?Glen jerked around and g
Damien and Aurora made the decision to leave for the Great Canyon tomorrow at midnight.Their main target for this trip was to find out more information about the Rogue King. So that they could be better prepared when they met this mysterious figure again on the battlefield.And if they saw the Rogu
“I can call Alpha Lance and invite him over later. It won’t be an issue,” Rivena suggested.Right, Lance.Aurora rubbed her temple and let out a sigh internally.She hadn’t got a chance to tell her brother about this plan yet.She could already imagine his anger when he heard about this later. Lance
When Aurora and the other disappeared into the distance, people sending them off all returned to the Crimson Fortress.Except for Angelina.She stood in the wind and gazed into the darkness, thinking about what Aurora said to her before they left.About Chloe.Angelina couldn’t help but asked hersel
He smirked in a cocky yet very youthful kind of way, “I figured…If you like my wolf, maybe you will like me better?”Aurora bit her lips.She didn’t know how to tell Westin that his wolf appeared more intimidating than likable to her.“Your wolf looked very different than ours,” she said eventually.
The formidable creature stood in the dark shadows, towering at an imposing height.Its eyes, burning with a golden fire, traveled across the aghast soldiers, and landed on Aurora’s face.A creeping chill was sent down Aurora’s spine as their eyes met.She swallowed, nervously.…Now she finally saw h
Aurora was confused as well.What Damien had in his palm made no sense to her.It was a cup of dirt.“How is some dirt going to find us locate the bandits?” Westin crossed his arms with a smirk on his face. “I have got to say—this is not a very smart way to get Aurora’s attention.”“Hey.”Aurora elb
“I need to go.” Aurora threw the napkin back on the table and stood up, “Now if you will excuse me.”She wanted to make her way past these two men.But Damien grabbed her wrist.“What is the rush? You haven’t had dinner yet. Something happened?” he asked with a frown.“No. Everything is fine—”“Oh c
Aurora took a deep breath, “I haven’t decided yet.”“You need two whole weeks to decide?” Damien frowned.“I think your best option is right here in front of your eyes,” Westin spread his hands.Whispers broke out like little hissing fires all over the hall.Everyone was intrigued by this love trian
It was a floor-length, emerald-green evening gown.It had a fitted bodice with intricate silver beadwork that extended down the waist, creating an elegant and eye-catching pattern. The skirt flowed gracefully, creating a slight train.“I like this one,” Aurora pointed at the dress.“Great choice, pr
Announce whom she would marry?But she hadn’t decided yet!“Hold on a second.” Aurora frowned, “What if I can’t decide within these two weeks?”“Then you make up your mind quickly.”Lance crossed his arms and said:“You saw how they were like out there. They can’t stay in the same room peacefully fo
Damien gently pushed a lock of her hair to the back of her ear, “…I should have done the same for you.”Aurora struggled to look away from those enchanting eyes of his, “Yes you should have. But now it is too late.”“It is never too late!”Damien’s tone suddenly became rushed, “Aurora, I want to ask
An awkward silence fell upon them.Rivena bit her lips, looking reluctant to answer, but eventually gave in under everyone’s sharp gaze.“Well…yeah. I am…actually,” she sighed.“You are pregnant, and you still decided to leave me?!” Lance raised his voice abruptly and roared, “Are fucking crazy?!”R
