In a great rush of excitement, Aurora let out a small gasp.That ought to nail Agnes down!“You see it, right, Clemente?” she cried, shaking Clemente’s hand. “That is Agnes! She claimed to be at her parent’s house, but she first called the patrol center to divert you from home and then ambushed the
Clemente checked the time really quickly, “Fuck…the office is off duty now. There is no way we can get the paperwork for the visit done today.”Aurora raised an eyebrow, “You are the general. You don’t need any paperwork. Just wave your badge in the air and tell whoever dares to stop you to fuck off
Clemente and Aurora came dashing out of prison and bumped right into the leader.“Are you done talking to that prisoner? Did you get the location of that bomb?” the leader asked eagerly.“That prisoner was dead! murdered!”“WHAT?!” the leader cried in panic, “Impossible! This prison was heavily guar
“It must be Agnes. She helped him take care of the permits needed for the prison. And don’t worry. We have the phone now.”“Hurry and see what is in his phone!”Aurora turned on the phone and browsed his call lists, his inbox, his online shopping records…But she found nothing suspicious.“This app!”
Aurora raised a brow and stared back at him defiantly, “Huge trouble? Like what? Are you going to lock me in your study again?”Westin grinned, flashing his white teeth, “That is a very good idea. And this time when you beg me to stop…I won’t stop.”Aurora gave a huge heave and forced out a cold smi
Westin was probably pissed that she went on digging the ancient history behind his back.But what could he do?She had done it already.She ignored Westin’s cold gaze and added, “So we started looking into Keavy’s case and noticed the restaurant owner’s crime. That part you already knew…”“Yes, we d
Aurora touched his hand, which was cold and clammy, and it sent a shiver down her body.“Get it together, Westin,” she whispered into his ears.He took a deep, shuddering breath and nodded, “Yeah I know…Thanks.”Aurora turned to look at Agnes and sneered, “Blame Westin? You have got to be fucking ki
Love?Aurora let out a cold sneer internally.What Westin said about love was ridiculous.He didn’t love her. He was just possessive of her. And there was a difference between the two.Westin buried his head down to her neck and murmured hoarsely, “Please tell me Aurora…What should I do with my love
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
Aurora stopped laughing.A nostalgic and slightly sad feeling surged up in her chest.Yeah…When was the last time that he made her laugh?“…Back in the Grace Ruin,” she said lowly eventually.“The Grace Ruin.” Westin nodded, “We were facing a lot of dangers and you didn’t even know who I am. But it
Elder Medline was the only person who remained sitting.She crossed her arms and looked at Aurora with a critical eye.“What is with the waistline?” she asked.“What about it?”“It doesn’t fit. And it makes your waist look like a bucket,” she said with a tone of asperity. “The tailors should close u
Aurora held her breath involuntarily.Westin didn’t mention that he had a godmother.And she didn’t remember seeing Elder Medline on any occasion before. It almost felt as though Elder Medline had been deliberately avoiding her.Elder Medline cast a warning look upon Aurora and turned to Annie, “Ris
Aurora sighed.…It was going to be a long day.They arrived at the fitting room and the maids opened the door for them.Everyone in the room stood up and curtseyed to them upon their arrival.“Queen Aurora,” they said in unison.Aurora’s eyes flickered to a girl in the back of the crowd.Annie.She
