It was still super hectic down there, with everyone busy working on the feast for the dinner party after the ceremony.Aurora took a couple of hours to finish the work that she had at hand and then reported back to the headmaid.The headmaid was busy working on the wedding cake.“Can I help with thi
The head maid got herself hammered with that bottle of wine and fell asleep in the lounge.When she woke up, it was already 6 o’clock the next morning.“Jesus Christ!”She jumped up and sprunt into the kitchen crying, “Fuck we don’t have much time left! How is the cake coming along—”The wedding cak
Everyone was dressed in fine evening wear, with women in flowing gowns and men in sharp tuxedos.They all looked so noble and elegant.“Keep your head down! Don’t look at the masters.”The servant hissed at Aurora as they crossed the room staying close to the wall.“You can’t afford to offend any on
The Queen’s mother.Wearing fake.It was such a scandal!Some of the guests tonight were already unhappy with the choice of the Queen. They didn’t think an outsider like Chloe deserved to marry their King, especially since she was an outsider without any title or power.If they heard that the queen’
Chloe’s cheeks seemed to be on fire.She gasped urgently to defend herself, “I—I know it is a lot. But this is our wedding! Once in a lifetime! 50 million is nothing compared to its significance…”“You are the one to say!” Silas glared at her, “I already took enough manpower to get your parents acro
The Lycan?Aurora was stunned for a few seconds and then burst out laughing, “No. You are kidding.”“You don’t believe me,” the servant snorted.“Well then, because…Lycan is nothing about a myth.”Aurora had heard many stories and fairytales about the Lycan since she was a child.In those stories, t
Aurora took in a deep breath with rage surging up in her chest.…Maybe she should just smash Chloe’s stupid face directly into this cake.Just then, a deep voice came behind their backs:“—What are you two fighting about?”It was Damien.Aurora didn’t see him earlier. Maybe he ran late.Chloe quiver
The cake started to wobble when Chloe cut a slice off.“Watch out!” a maid cried.The next second, the ten-layer cake came crashing down and fell right onto Chloe’s head.“AHHHHH—”Chloe let out a deafening scream, her face and body covered in jam and cream. The gorgeous gown that she was so proud o
The air was thick with tension and the musky scent of sweat.The moon’s glow filtered through the curtains, casting shadows that danced around the room.Aurora gritted her teeth, clutching the edges of the bed.The pain started as a deep ache in her lower back, intensifying with each passing moment.
“Ahhh…Westin! My…My child!”The room echoed with Aurora’s labored breaths and painful cries.Her eyes were filled with panic, her hand clutching her swollen belly so hard that her knuckles turned white.“It is OK…Baby, it is OK. I am right here with you,” Westin held her hand tightly, desperation et
She vaguely heard the argument going on around her. And she suddenly understood something:…When they first met in the Grace Ruin, Westin always talked about how superior Lycans were compared to the werewolves.She hated that racist thought, which turned out to be planted by Madeline in his head.Sh
“Fuck…Aurora…Aurora! Oh my god…”Westin’s voice was filled with worry and rage, and it was shaking violently.Aurora struggled to open her eyes. But she couldn’t. Her top and bottom lashes were stick together by frost.A large hand covered her eyes, gently rubbing her numb skin.Gradually, her eyela
She turns to the doctor, “Run a couple of tests on her. Now.”Two soldiers jumped at her, pinning her on the spot.The doctor got up to her and took out a needle, tubing, and collection vials.…They were going to take her blood!Aurora’s body tensed all over.If they used her blood to run a DNA test
“Queen Aurora! Open the door! Elder Madeline wants to see you!”Aurora sat by the window and turned to look at the closed door.“Tell Elder Madeline that I am not feeling well and prefer to be alone,” she said coldly.“You are not feeling well, which is exactly why Elder Madeline wants to see you! Y
The swear.She didn’t know the consequences that bore with it back then.Now she knew.Bound by that oath, she was physically forbidden to disclose that secret.It was her own doing.Desperate tears streamed down Aurora’s cheeks as she choked, “D—Damien…God…Please trust me…”“Trust you what?”He too
Aurora couldn’t believe what she was seeing with her own eyes.…Damien?How did Damien get in here?! She thought that there was no way either of them could pass that misted forest!And why didn’t he bring more soldiers? He was here alone, how dangerous!And Westin…It seemed that Westin knew Damien w
Amidst the sea of lilies, fairy lights on the archways and trees twinkled like stars, casting a soft, warm glow.The gentle rustle of leaves, the occasional flutter of butterflies, and the distant murmur of a mountain stream added to the dreamy serenity.A path paved by pedals winded through the sea
