Liam took Elinor out of his house, and although Elinor seemed happy to see the world outside of her captivity, her happiness turned to sadness when she realized that the place was very far from the Thane region.They were outside in an environment that felt very cold. Elinor wore a thick jacket to keep herself warm, given that their surroundings were covered in a generous layer of snow. They were in a region with the coldest and snowiest weather.This situation may reflect the conflict in the story, where Elinor feels trapped between her love and duty towards Thane and her desire to have freedom and live outside the safer region, even though it may be harsher and colder.Several times, Liam tries to be sweet to Elinor. However, Elinor responded coldly and showed her dislike for Liam."Honey, look at the scenery here. It's so calm and peaceful. We can start all over. I'll try to be a partner who always makes you happy," Liam said as he showed Elinor the scenery.Elinor looked away, she
Elinor felt uncomfortable, and her mind was filled with images of Thane, her lover. They had been separated for too long, and the growing longing made Elinor restless. In the castle where she was held, Elinor was always watched very closely. Her every move was followed by a guard who made sure she couldn't escape or try to communicate with the outside world.This frustrated Elinor even more, and she tried to find opportunities to escape. However, every time she tried, the guards quickly secured her. Elinor felt like she was in a luxurious prison, unable to escape the worsening circumstances. Exhausted with her efforts, Elinor could only wait for Tasha, who promised to help her. Currently, Elinor is in her room. She sat daydreaming and imagining what she and Thane used to do when they were together. This time, Elinor could only imagine it without being able to do it. She was sure those times would return in the near future. She knew Thane wouldn't let her wait long."Thane, I miss you
Liam's loneliness is increasingly felt in the castle where he keeps Elinor. Despite his power and wealth, the emptiness in his heart was increasingly felt. The moon goddess gave him his destined mate. However, Liam felt that he had lost a woman first, who was supposed to be his mate.Liam tried to suppress his feelings of loneliness with his power and dominance over Elinor. He tries to fill the void in himself with the desire to possess and dominate Elinor completely. However, the more he tries to understand his feelings, the deeper his loneliness feels.In that moment of solitude, Liam recalls the beautiful memories he once had at the top of the snowy mountain. That place now gave him conflicting memories, reminding him of the moments of tranquillity that were now gone."I still remember you, darling. I can't forget you. But I can't go on like this, alone without the woman I love by my side. So, I will repay you by getting a lover from my enemy," Liam said in his reverie.In his unha
Thane felt an intense rush of emotions. A mixture of jealousy, anger, and worry coalesced within him. Without Elinor needing to explain, he knew that something terrible was happening where his woman was. Thane immediately called his men and gave instructions to get ready to storm every base Liam owned. Thane promised himself that he would save Elinor no matter what.The sound of items being destroyed filled the room. Thane really couldn't stop himself from destroying everything. "What are you waiting for? Quickly find the whereabouts of the castle!" Thane shouted to his special members, who were none other than Mike and Amanda.The two stared at each other, feeling something wasn't right with Thane's attitude. Mike tried to speak, but Thane continually diverted the conversation. "Thane, listen to us. Your anger won't solve any of this. Especially regarding the big raid, we don't know what they are preparing," Mike said, trying to calm Thane down.Thane, filled with emotion and anxie
Liam received another report about one of his bases being attacked by Royal. Although his face was smiling, the words made Juan round his eyes. Juan never thought Liam would be so angry with the carelessness that happened there. The base that Royal destroyed was Liam's third favourite place of several grounds he had. Juan also apologized and regretted it.Liam ordered all members to take over the base when Royal was off guard. Liam didn't want the base to belong to Thane because he had something unmentionable.After his emotions overflowed, Liam left the castle towards the mountains he always visited. There, Liam recalled how he could hug Elinor in the room. Smiling, Liam said that trying to get Elinor would be easier than ever. Liam thought. Slowly, Elinor melted and liked him.At the castle, Elinor sat quietly by the tightly closed window with no outside view. There, Elinor had just calmed her heart because of Thane, who was on the cliff's edge. It was a relief that the man had not
Liam sat by Elinor's bedside, attentive eyes focused on the woman's face. Every beat of his heart seemed to stop waiting for an uncertain moment. The silence of the room was only interrupted by the hiss of Liam's tension-filled breath.Suddenly, his eyes, which had been looking intently at Elinor, saw a subtle movement on the woman's eyelids. Elinor began to open her eyes slowly, a pair of eyes that looked pale and weak. Liam could feel the relief and emotion that overflowed when he saw Elinor welcoming the world again."Elinor..." Liam whispered, his voice filled with regret. "...I was so stupid. I'm sorry."Elinor, who had just opened her eyes, saw Liam's figure nearby. Her expression was still weak, but her eyes looked at Liam meaningfully. This may be the starting point of change in their complicated relationship."Am I already in heaven?" asked Elinor with a confused face.Liam chuckled at her words and replied, "Yes, you're in heaven. More precisely, the heaven I made for you,
Although aware that Liam was trying to pay attention, Elinor maintained a distance and showed a cold attitude. He knew her heart belonged only to Thane, and no one could take his place in Elinor's heart.Though frustrated by the difficulty of getting close to Elinor, Liam remains determined to make her like him. Every rejection made him try harder, even though it only added to their tension.Liam grew increasingly frustrated as Elinor continued to reject his attentions. He pondered for a while, trying to figure out how to get close to Elinor's heart. Liam realized he needed to learn more about Elinor's wants and needs.One night, Liam tried to approach Elinor more gently. "Elinor, can we talk?" Liam said in a calm voice.Elinor nodded hesitantly, "Sure, what do you want to talk about?"Liam sat near Elinor, trying to open her heart, "I realize that you might be uncomfortable with this situation, and I want to know what I can do to make you feel better. I don't want you to feel threate
Tasha looked at Elinor seriously, realizing how important this meeting was to Elinor. "Elinor, I can't guarantee anything. But, if you really want to meet with Thane, I have a way to help you get out of here without Liam knowing."Elinor looked at Tasha with hope in her eyes. "How? I'm willing to do whatever it takes."Tasha looked at Elinor carefully before finally whispering, "There is one way, but it is very risky, Elinor. You must be prepared for the consequences."Elinor looked at Tasha with expectant eyes. "Tell me, Tasha. I'm ready for anything."Tasha gave a small smile, "I will find the right time. Prepare yourself well."With mixed feelings, Elinor prepared for the opportunity that might be the key to reuniting with Thane.Elinor's heart raced as she thought to herself, "Although Tasha said confidently. However, I cannot deny that my heart feels anxious about her offer. I never knew what Tasha had in mind for me. Why she would help me and sacrifice herself just for my freedo
