Yet now, everything had changed.“Leave us,” Damien said.The soldiers bowed and backed out of the room.Jane turned around to face him, a sarcastic smile on her face.“They really treat you as the big boss. Seems that you already have Silas wrapped around your finger. Congratulations,” she mocked.
Aurora was locked in this very room.She lost all freedom.Her door was guarded by armed soldiers.A couple of maids stayed in the room all day, keeping a close eye on her. She tried to ask them to leave but failed.Her every move was monitored.And Damien would not let anyone visit her.Morgana cam
Her phone was confiscated. Maids watched her during the day and then Damien took over by the night.It seemed that there was absolutely nothing she could do.Before Aurora could figure out a doable plan, a group of soldiers came to bring her out of there.“The King asked to take her to the Counselin
At the very last second before the axe landed, Aurora let out a sharp cry and pulled her hands with her full might!The strength was enormous.Her hands dodged the blade by less than half an inch.The axe didn’t chop down her hands, but it pared a thin layer of skin and smashed down to the hardwood
Damien stared at Silas, unblinking.“She is MY woman. No one can touch her besides me. I made this clear to you already, Silas. Yet you went behind my back.”Silas frowned, looking a bit anxious.“But—But you broke up, didn’t you…” Chloe stuttered. “She is not your woman anymore…You have someone bet
Chloe held her head down, still struggling internally.“Guards.” Silas commanded, “Lady Chloe needs some help.”“Yes, my King!”Soldiers took an eager step forward immediately.“Wait a second!” Chloe cried.Being forced by a bunch of lowly guards…It looked even worse than getting on the knees hersel
Plus, being a maid meant that she could get out of the room and walk around.She would get her freedom back.It was a great deal.So Aurora answered right away without hesitation, “Yes.”But Damien spoke up at the same time, “NO.”Having heard about her answer, Damien snapped his head toward her wit
“It is not your damn business, OK?”Wendy snarled with an eyeroll.“The rule is there for a reason. You just follow the rules. And stop asking silly questions.”She took one more critical look at Aurora and let out a snort, “Let me go fetch you a maid’s uniform. You can’t wear your current clothes.”
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
