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
Chloe breathed heavily.The desire for survival gleamed in her eyes.“DAMIEN!” she cried abruptly, “Damien are you going to just stand there and let her kill me?!”The giant wolf stood silently a few steps away, its fur blending seamlessly with the shadows.Aurora let out a cold sneer. She raised he
Aurora looked down at Chloe’s dead body.A sweet sense of revenge surged up in her body.This woman had been her nightmare since childhood. Even till this day, she still carried some lashing scars on her back left by Chloe.Now, finally, she ended her own nightmare.And it felt…so fucking awesome.A
They couldn’t hear anything else besides the gushing wind and their own labored breathing.Damien didn’t say anything. He simply stared at the blade that pointed at his chest, his eyes full of sorrow.“Good,” Aurora said, her breath a pale mist in the air. “Now let us head back. We still have to dea
Silas was skeptical. As he should be.The entire city was now occupied by his enemy. He had to be extra careful.Morgana and Kaelan were hiding behind a collapsed wall a few feet away.Hearing about their conversation, Morgana mouthed Aurora quietly, asking if now was a good striking time.Aurora sh
Aurora clenched her fists abruptly, her eyes blazing with anger.“You fucking used him!!!” she snarled.The courtyard’s solemn atmosphere was interrupted by Aurora’s sudden roar. All rogue soldiers jerked around to look at her, not knowing what was going on.Damien kept his hands in his pocket, meet
Damien told her that the Lycans didn’t want a Werewolf King. Because the Werewolf King was the only one who had the power to fight the Lycans.And that put her in a dilemma.She hated Damien for how he used her friends for power.But she would hate it more if the Lycans came onto their soil and mess
…What the hell?A deep furrow appeared between Aurora’s brows.Westin’s proposal was shocking. She thought that he would ask her for something like recognizing their mate bond, but this—Going to the Lycan’s land?She didn’t even know where that was.It would be different from the time she left for
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
“And you are defending her!”Tears streaming down Agnes’s cheeks as she shrieked:“Do you know what a hard time she gave me a couple of days ago? She expelled me from my own tea party, Clemente! How can you ever hang out with her? You swore to your brother on his deathbed that you would always help
