Loraine's Pov“Are you okay?” He kept on asking me the same questions over and over again, not even minding the two people whom he had taken down and were currently lying on the floor with broken bones and bruises.They were badly beaten up by Aaron, who didn't even let them get the chance to take their breath and continuously beat them up with the intention of killing them.Earlier, he was coldly gazing at them and his whole body exuded such a heavy murderous aura, but now, he was looking... well, pretty annoying.“Shut up, Aaron. My head is hurting from your constant questions.” I calmly said as I stood up, walking towards Anna, whose eyes and nose were red.Aaron, who was also following me, spoke. “I won't stop asking you if you won't answer me. I told you that we should go to the infirmary to get you checked. I know you have a high tolerance of pain, but there's no need for you to endure that.”I let out a heavy sigh and looked at him. “I'm really fine. Besides, don't you already
Third-Person PovA dark figure, forming a muscular man who was currently waiting for Loraine to show up in her room. He was standing patiently and trying to minimize his presence.However, he suddenly grips his sharp knife tightly and his whole body emits such a heavy murderous aura. He had just received a message that two brothers had been beaten badly, and they had finally lost their lives just now. Someone had delivered the final blow to them.His gaze became darker and sharper, trying to minimize his presence, especially as he had felt Loraine’s presence walking back to her room.The moment that the door was open, the man watched as Loraine closed the door. Without waiting for her to turn her back, the man appeared behind her, and his hand reached out, locking the door and his other hand was pointing his sharp knife at her neck.“Don’t do anything and be a good girl.” The man coldly said with his lower voice.Loraine was about to open her mouth and when the man had seen this, he m
Third Person’s PovLoraine ran as fastest as she could. This was the first time that she felt panic. Her whole body was trembling even though she felt calm in her heart, yet her body instinctively warned her about how dangerous it would be if she stayed in that place.She couldn’t help but curse when she still felt the man’s presence behind her, running persistently towards her.It was creepy.If she continued to run while using the path that they had taken earlier, this man would end up catching her, and she knew that it would be no good if the man would catch her, especially if she tried to escape this time.‘Loraine? Loraine? Can you hear me?’Loraine was slightly taken back when she heard Aaron’s voice, speaking to her directly to her mind.“Yes, I could hear you. What’s the matter?” Loraine tried to answer in the smoothest and calmer way, but Aaron still managed to catch her.‘I felt your troubles, so I was wondering what happened to you. Where are you now?’ Aaron calmly asked he
Loraine’s POVI calmly let this man hugged me from the back and acting as if I didn’t find out his identity. I already had some doubts about him the moment when he walked towards me behind my back and all of my doubts had become certain about the person who just hugged me from behind.In order not to startle the snake, I calmly went along with him.When I faced him, I couldn’t help but sneer secretly. No matter what kind of witchcraft they would do, they won’t be able to copy their target well.After all, the ‘Aaron’ in front of me had a distorted face, and this man probably hasn’t realized this yet and was confident that I haven’t found out about his act.However, when I saw his hand move, I had moved my hand immediately and wrapped his neck with my hand, coldly looking at the fake one in front of me, who was also looking at me in disbelief.“H-How…?”I coldly looked at him. “You must have been underestimating my bond with the Alpha King huh? You should have cloned a person who isn’t
Loraine’s Pov“Dear, stop running. You’ll get hurt!”When I looked back, I saw the same woman whom I had seen when I awakened. Wait… is she calling me?I was about to point my hand at myself while looking at the woman, trying to confirm if I was the one whom she was calling about, when I noticed something was wrong.What… how come my hands become smaller?When I touched my face, it still had some chubby cheeks and when I saw the woman walking towards me, she was taller than me, like a giant.I became a kid.What happened? What’s this? A dream?I watched as the woman, who had a gentle aura, kept on nagging at me, yet her voice was soft, and it was contained with helplessness. Her eyes when she was looking at me were doting and filled with love.Suddenly, I felt a warm liquid on my cheeks while tilting my head in look.I saw her squat down to match my face and her warm hand softly brushed my cheeks.“Why is my baby crying? I’m sorry if mama keeps on nagging you. She was just worried tha
Loraine’s Pov“So, who was it? Tell me. I promise that I will only talk to him.” He calmly said with a soft voice while his hands were caressing my cheeks.Yeah, right. Who would believe that?Besides, I can’t reveal anything about Kavier, especially the fact that he was planning on rebellion, and if Aaron knew about it, then for sure Kavier would get executed on, spot. Not just that, although he couldn’t kill me, there are various ways to torture the allies of the one who plot for rebellion.Also, Kavier seemed not to plan on revealing that he knew me revealing anything related to our bloodlines.I looked at Aaron helplessly and got up, making him look at me.Without saying anything, I grabbed his collar and kissed him on the lips, making him look at me in surprise.I was about to move away and pull myself away from him, but his hand wrapped my waist, tightly pulling me over him and deepened the kiss.“Hmmp… stop…” I catched my breath after I managed to push him away.Aaron looked at
Loraine’s PovIt has been two days ever since I was in the clinic to recuperate my wound. Although, within two days of that time, my wound had already healed, yet Aaron, Anna, and even Kavier had insisted that I should stay there for the meantime to make sure that I was really healed, so I left with no other choice but to comply with their wishes.Anyway, if I keep on being stubborn, they might chain me to bed.“Are you okay with working now?” It was the head maid, Claire, who asked me the question.I smiled and looked at her with guilt. “Yeah, I’m fine now. I will go back to my assigned area.”The headmade was silent, and I saw her brows furrowed and the way she hesitated, making me look at her in confusion.“Is there something wrong?” I asked.However, Claire was about to shake her head but, as if remembering something, she looked at me in the eyes and nodded her head. “Yes, it was about Anna. She had been harassed about her new assigned job.”I looked at her with brows furrowed. “S
Third Person's Pov“Where are you going, my lord?”Aaron looked back at his subordinate whose gaze was looking at his feet while speaking at him politely.“I'm going to take a stroll.” He answered with a nonchalant tone, as if he was really going to take a stroll.But his subordinate knew him already and didn't point out his words.“I will handle the affairs here, my lord.” He politely said.Aaron nodded his head in satisfaction. “I know I could trust you on this one. Also...” his gaze darkened, and his voice became colder. “Take care of that woman. She needs to be reminded about her position.”His subordinate shivered at the way his lord's mood changed in an instant.Yet, he respectfully obeyed his lord's order. “Without mercy, my lord.”Aaron nodded his head in satisfaction and left in a hurry to take his ‘stroll’.On the other hand, Loraine, whose hair was a mess with sweat, and she brushed it from her forehead to back while smirking at Jovan, who was battered by her, lying on the
Loraine's Pov“You're here.” I calmly said while looking in a certain direction. I chuckled and said with a tease. “I thought that you would only return once we announced my wedding with Aaron?”Kavier, who had now grown a beard and his features became even more prominent and matured, his wheat color made him look masculine, rolled his eyes and walked towards my direction, then sat down on the chair.“It's a bit shocking that your big dog isn't clinging to you?” Kavier sneered and added, “I've heard that ever since you woke up, he would always follow you and would bring you along wherever he goes?”I chuckled as I handed him the tea I had brewed. “Yeah, I was also taken back too, but I could guess that he was up to something behind my back.”Kavier rolled his eyes at me and took a sip of the tea. “Do you feel like you're being restrained by him? Especially that he is too protective and possessive when it comes to you? Who knows one day you will find it annoying. I would be delighted i
THIRD PERSON'S POVNow that the two kids know how to read the room, especially upon seeing their father's restless emotions towards their mother, as if he couldn't wait to talk to her, so after they expressed how they missed her very much and how much they loved her, they gave their parents a space to talk and be honest with each other.Loraine found himself sitting in Aaron's lap while he was facing her back to him. She watched as those arms wrapped tightly around her waist as he buried his face in her neck.“Are you fine now? There's really nothing going on with your body that you aren't telling me, hm?” He softly asked.Loraine smiled and shook her head as she leaned her body on him. “No, I'm really fine now. After those long “rests”, I am fully healed and, other than feeling numb and being uncomfortable walking or standing, nothing else hurts now.”Aaron pursed his lips and closed his eyes as he exhaled her scent as if he couldn't get over it. He held her tightly and was trying to
Loraine's PovAlthough I was hesitant at first, I nodded my head and let Aaron carry me, taking me to our home. I... I never imagined that I would have a child and those children are still alive despite the fact that the shaman had kicked my belly that time so hard, trying to kill my children.I thought that they were already... I shook my head and stopped thinking about those messy thoughts. What's important right now is that knowing that they are healthy, and although I gave birth to them through the cesarean method while I was in a coma, it was a good thing to know that I managed to bring them back alive.“What are you thinking?” He asked as he walked me down to our home, entering the newly built villa that he built for us.“You really didn't build this villa for your little mistress, right?” I jokingly asked while raising my brows, looking at him, who had a serious expression, but his aura was gentler.Although he looked fatigued and seemed to be lacking sleep, he was still vigoro
Loraine's PovI was woken up by the constant growl of my stomach and the quenching thirst of my throat. I slowly opened my eyes and couldn't help but frown as I squinted my eyes, slowly adjusting to the light that had hit my face.I glanced outside the window and saw that winter had already passed. Just how long did I remain unconscious?“Oh? You're finally awake.”I slowly move my head, which is stiff from probably lying on the bed in the same position. I don't know how long I was asleep, but I guess that it took long enough for my body to become rigid.“How long...” I paused and was taken back at how hoarse my voice was, as if its saliva had dried off.Nathan sighed and poured water into the glass, and then gave it to me.I took it and, without hesitation, I gulped the water down to its last drop, then handed it to him again.“More?”I nodded my head, and he gave me a bottle of water and I took it and drank it again until the bottle was empty before I sighed in relief.I looked at h
Third Person's PovThe doctor, Nathan, was about to pack himself to go back to his hometown, when the door of his room had burst out, making him panic as he looked in that direction.He thought that he was under-attacked by the enemies, but the person who had attacked his door was none other than the Alpha King.Yet, upon seeing the Alpha King's expression and the heavy aura around him, he felt that it would be better to be attacked by the enemies instead.“A-Alpha...”Before he could finish his words, his eyes happened to fall at the person that the Alpha King was gently carrying.Upon seeing those familiar faces, his eyes deepened as he became serious. He looked at the Alpha King with a frown.“What happened to her? How could she become like this?! Didn't you promise to protect her?!” Nathan's fear had vanished instantly upon seeing Loraine's condition.He couldn't help but glare at the Alpha King instead, and the Alpha King didn't get angry when he got scolded.Instead, he stood st
Third Person's PovBefore the shaman could get her chance to come back, Loraine, who saw through her petty tricks, sneered as she grabbed the shaman's neck using her hands, choking her tightly as if she would snap necks of hers.Loraine coldly gazed at her and sneered. “You're too weak. The thing that made you strong was only your manipulative tactics and those petty tricks of yours.”The shaman, with her face slowly turning purple, glared at her with a hateful gaze and, despite that she was having a hard time breathing, she spoke with the corner of her lips raised.“So what? I managed to kill your parents... besides... cough...” she couldn't finish her words when the moment she mentioned Loraine's parents, Loraine had tightened the grip around the shaman's neck, making the shaman's eyes redden as she turned purple.Yet, when Loraine was about to snap the shaman's neck, the shaman's hands were, in fact, holding something and when she pressed it, a white smoke appeared to jolt both of
Third Person's PovA woman's painful scream could be heard inside the basement and echoed her voice. Blood had fallen down from her body and dripped down on the ground, soiling the candles that served as lights for them.She couldn't move her body even though she wasn't being chained or tied down. Blooded tears had wetted her cheeks as she let out a painful scream as he watched Penelope who was stabbing her with a knife from her shoulders and her ankles.Her body had lost its strength. Her head was throbbing. She gritted her teeth and tried hard to remain conscious.“It's really amazing that you had the same ability as your mother.” the shaman grinned as she kept on stabbing her whenever her wounds healed. “However, let's see which one of us will give up. Your healing ability or me.”After she said that, she laughed out loud while stabbing her again, again, and again.Loraine couldn't even count nor remember how many times she had been stabbed.She didn't know if the shaman was doing
Third Person's Pov“Loraine!”Both Aaron and Kavier shouted her name when they saw her being hit by an arrow in her shoulder.Before they could run in her direction, Loraine was suddenly swallowed by the ground, making it impossible for them to catch up with her.Aaron's gaze darkened as his knuckles turned red. “Damn it!”Kavier gritted his teeth and his eyes revealed anxiousness and worries. He looked at Aaron and said, “Go on and find your mate! I'm sure that you can find her since you two have connections to each other! I'll take care of this shits here!”Hearing this, Aaron wasn't polite as he turned his back and ran towards a certain direction where his gut was telling him to go.His body exudes such a heavy murderous aura as if he would kill anyone right now if they dared to stop him—well, he would.His heart was churning with anger as he desperately tried to contact Loraine through their mind-link while feeling her bond. He knows that Loraine won't be able to get away from him
Third Person's PovLoraine took a deep breath and endured the nausea feeling. She looked at Aaron who exuded such a heavy aura and couldn't help but sigh.“Stop it, Aaron. I know that he didn't mean it. After all, he knows the Shaman since she was a friend of my parents but who was expecting the Shaman to be the one who manipulated this entire fight.” Loraine said as she tried to brush off the uncomfortable feeling that washed over her body and stood up.Kavier pursed his lips. He was still feeling guilty for what he had done. If it happened that he really killed Loraine, he would also kill himself. But if that happened, he didn't know how to face his parents and Loraine's parents when he had sworn to them that he would protect her and leave her to him.Yet, he almost killed Loraine.On the other hand, Aaron took a deep breath and closed his eyes, trying to suppress the anger in his heart. Then he looked at Loraine with worry.“Are you okay now? Did that Shaman do something to you?” H
