Silas roared furiously and attacked again.The ground quivered beneath Aurora as the wolves clashed with bone-crushing force, each collision sending shockwaves through the debris-strewn air.Aurora stumbled backward, narrowly avoiding a falling pillar as the dark wolf’s ferocious growls intensified.
Aurora rushed to hold Damien’s shoulder.She could feel his body trembling under her touch. The blood dripped down from his fingertips and fell to the ground, forming a small pool of blood.Normally, Damien’s wolf could heal his wound…But this one was too severe!Damien would bleed to death before t
Hence, they would be free to kill Silas right in the city.It sounded like a workable plan.Edwin came back with the bandage and tossed it to Damien.“You don’t need maids to help with that, do you?” he asked mockingly.Damien rolled his eyes.“I will help him,” Aurora said.Westin stared appraising
“…You want the new Rogue King to give you their blood. So you still want to be the Werewolf King,” Aurora said after a long pause.Damien didn’t say anything.But she could see ambition dancing in his dark eyes.“So what you said was all craps, right?”Aurora couldn’t help but raise her voice:“You
“Aurora.”Westin stared at Aurora with an alluring smile on his lips:“What made Damien and Silas suddenly start fighting? Did Silas tell Damien anything?”Aurora avoided Westin’s gaze.Damien’s words rang in her ears—They are not to be trusted. “…Nothing,” Aurora said lowly after a while.“Really
“Doomed? No, no! King Silas is still alive. I just need you to help me transfer him to a safer place!” hissed the first voice.Aurora recognized this voice as well.It was the woman who went undercover with Silas in Crimson Fortress, the same person who pretended to be Silas’s wife, Layla.Chloe cli
They tried to move faster.But the frost on the floor and the strong wind made it impossible.Chloe clenched her fists, her heart thumping heavily against her ribs.Her back was drenched by cold sweat.There was no way that her parents would make it past the bridge in time.Even if they did, Aurora
The cord snapped with a sharp cracking sound.The entire bridge fell off and crashed into the river. Paul and Hellen screamed in terror, but the raging turbulence immediately swallowed their voices.Aurora and Morgana stood on top of the tower and looked down.The remains of the bridge floated down
Aurora quietly took the crossbow from her back.She pointed the arrow at one of the Lycan soldiers head, narrowing her eyes, holding her breath.The two soldiers had no idea that death was looming.They were still talking.“Looks like our King is really in love with that she-wolf. Don’t you think?”
Damien was certain that he heard Aurora’s voice at some point.But he didn’t know if that was just another of his hallucinations.He had heard her voice all the time during the past few weeks, sometimes during daytime, sometimes in his dreams.She was calling for his help and telling him that she wa
The crowd jeered.Aurora raised her head, “Oh careful with the big words, Elder Robert. I will rub it in your face when you lose to a werewolf.”Elder Robert’s face darkened.Wells and Belle were in the crowd as well.The twins applauded and cheered for Aurora together, “Go Aurora!”“OK!”Elder Robe
Clemente looked stunned, “You don’t want me to follow you? But the King clearly said that—”“The King is not here,” Aurora’s voice turned cold slightly. “And you saw how those people treated me, Clemente. There is no respect. I need to turn this around and convince them that I can be Queen. This hun
“There isn’t!”He chuckled lowly, “Fine. Then what should we do before bedtime?”“You can read to me. There is a novel on the nightstand.”With one arm still wrapped around her shoulder, he reached over and grabbed the book.Turning the book to the page that she folded, he started reading.He had a
Her heart was thumping so crazily that she was afraid that he might hear the sound of her heartbeat.But she didn’t let her panic show.“Do you have a trusting issue, Westin?” she asked, pretending to be vexed.“Don’t make this about me, my love.” He raised an eyebrow while saying, “First you manage
“Hey what are you talking about over there? We need our pitcher,” Westin cried to them in the distance.Aurora laughed and patted on Clemente’s shoulder, “You should get back in there.”The game lasted for hours till the moon moved to the center of the night sky.Eventually stewards had to step in a
He kept going till her angry screams completely faded in the distance.***When Clemente returned to the castle, it was already approaching nightfall.He immediately wanted to report back to Aurora.Yet a soldier by the front gate said that the King needed him in the training field.So he turned and
Agnes stared at him.The horrified look faded from her face.Eventually, her face became expressionless.“Yes,” she uttered.“…What?”“I said yes.” Agnes let out a light chuckle, “You were asking me for an answer. I am answering you right now—Yes. I do want Westin for myself.”Clemente gritted his t
