“Andre?”Damien frowned. A clear hint of suspicion flickered across his eyes, “If I remember correctly, he is Danton’s son.”“Foster son.”Morgana corrected.“Silas asked his best man Danton to adopt Andre after the former King died. This is a smart move, really. You know, keeping your enemy close.”
Aurora couldn’t believe what she was seeing.Everyone told her that Danton adored Andre and he was a loving father.But what kind of loving father lashed his son in a dark back alley?!All guards stood on their spots quietly, watching this scene in silence. They seemed quite used to this.Hearing th
The kid was barely 18.“This works in our advantage,” Damien turned to Aurora and said. “Now we know that Danton and Andre’s relationship isn’t as solid as we believe. We can find a chance to crack it and persuade Andre to work with us.”Aurora nodded, “We just need a chance to talk to him.”“You he
Andre was sipping his glass of champagne, looking bored.Aurora approached him from the back and bumped into his shoulder.Andre’s hand shook. Some champagne got spilled onto his white shirt.“On my god! I am so sorry sir!” Aurora gasped, “Are you alright?!”Andre jerked around in fume.He was about
“Shit,” Aurora cursed lowly.Danton called Andre away.She didn’t know what would happen to Andre. But it was not too hard to guess. Judging by what she saw earlier in the back alley and the fearful look on Andre’s face when he left, it must be something horrible.Though frustrated, Aurora could und
Aurora winded her eyes in shock.Andre was brought away by the guards a few hours ago. Why did he end up here in the garden?And why did they put a snake on his body?The snake wrapped its body around Andre and tightened its grip, its coils constricting around him like a living prison.The serpent's
With Andre on her back, Aurora couldn’t march right into palace. It caused to much attention. And she didn’t want that.She circled to the back of the building and found the window to their suite. She waited there for about ten to fifteen minutes and the window cracked open.Damien stuck his head ou
There was a ringing silence in the room. Both Aurora and Andre were shocked.“Are you crazy?” Andre gasped, “You can’t kill Danton! Not that I want him alive or anything…You just won’t be able to kill him! It is impossible!”Damien snorted, “Why? Is he immortal like Silas?”“No. But he is a General,
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
