The bar owner arbitrarily judged my feelings that seemed weak to him. Unknowingly behind the scenes, I was crying for my baby.The news of Matthias and Estella's marriage not only concerns my feelings, but also the future of my baby that I am currently fighting for. What was the point of me asking Frederick to let me go, asking Arthur for an alliance, if the Alpha I loved was already married to another Omega?"May I have one of those wedding invitations? You were one of the attendants, weren't you?" I said between sobs that I forced myself to stop.The Alpha handed me a gold-plated invitation sheet, though his face still looked worried about my condition."Are you sure you'll come to the wedding, Your Highness?" he asked, looking reluctant even as I just froze reading the contents of Matthias' wedding invitation letter."Prince Matthias is a cruel Alpha, you can definitely get the better of him," he added again as if I was eager to swallow all of his warnings.It wasn't that I didn't
"Your Honour. Are you sure? If Prince Frederick smells what you did just now, he will be very angry." My servant whispered in a low voice and covered her mouth so as not to invite others' hearing."He won't know if you don't tell him," I reply calmly. Without heeding her warning, I filled out two forms at once to increase my chances of being accepted as a servant in Matthias' court."When will the announcement come?" I asked the Omega, who was organizing the job vacancy."It will be announced tomorrow who passes, Your Majesty," she replied with a trembling voice and a body cowering in fear."Good. You, my job is to make sure I get accepted into Matthias' palace. And when I get there, open the back gate for me. Can you do that?" I asked.She nodded very reluctantly. Even though she had already received a fantastic sum of money, I'm sure that wasn't what she expected when doing her job in the night market.'A king's daughter applying as a servant? Moreover, she has to bear my secret. Sh
One month before this, Jessica and I still wore the same smile without being greeted with much burden. We cheerfully welcomed winter by cooking dinner together and catching up. She with her Alpha mate, and me with Matthias. Who could have expected things to turn upside down so quickly? As I stood in this kitchen for the first time after running away, I could see how happy I used to be. When Matthias still loved me, when he still believed in me. "Honey. How could you leave me just as our wedding was about to take place? You don't intend to cheat on me again, do you?" Once again, my ears caught the familiar voice coming from the room next to the palace kitchen. "Estella, we've agreed not to discuss that silly matter anymore. You know I'm busy. So, at least don't add to my burden if you can't help me." "What did you say? So that's how you talk to your future wife? You're cruel, Matthias!" /creak!/ /thud!/ A noisy, clamorous sound resided in the room that I was peering into from b
It seemed that he wanted me to clean up the trash heap of worn-out wheat husks. I didn't understand what he wanted, but my footsteps forced me to carry on and do what he need to me."W-what?" My body jumped in surprise when I was on my back and felt a hand deliberately poke my buttocks.My face turned reflexively to see who had just abused me. But there was no one in the warehouse but Matthias, and me. He, who saw me looking confused, just stood still with a cigarette perched in the crack of his finger."What are you waiting for? Clean up this warehouse," he ordered fiercely.I returned the order. I stuffed the trash into a straw bag used to dispose of unused items. My pregnant, bulging belly was quite a hindrance to me. But to my surprise, a pair of hands squeezed my breasts from behind."Y-your highness!?" I squealed in shock. In my panic, I almost blurted out his name.Matthias was the one who had touched my body earlier. He had also poked my ass, and now he was squeezing my breast
/Knock. Knock. Knock/"Prince Matthias wants you to go to his room right now."I hadn't even touched the bathroom yet. And the maid who had accompanied me here was already knocking on my bedroom door and requesting my presence abruptly."Just give me a moment," I pleaded with the maid who kept knocking on my door impatiently. "I need time to put on this dress. Can you please leave me alone first?"The waitress agreed, although she was a little unhappy with my request. I listened carefully to the sound of her tapping footsteps clashing with the cold marble floor, then disappeared into the distance between us."Huft." I could finally breathe a sigh of relief. I almost died on my feet earlier when I heard the maid almost open the door to this room when I was not prepared with my disguise.'What does Matthias want, anyway? He said he wanted to see me tonight, and not now! Since when did he become such an impetuous person!' I complained to myself as I put on the dress they told me to wear.
"I married Estella because I love that Omega," he said behind my ear. With his face buried in my neck so weakly."What do you mean?" I asked in astonishment.He ran his fingers through my scattered locks, smoothing them down, inching up to briefly kiss my forehead for a few moments. Our gazes met as his erect penis there hit the top of my genitals, but his face remained glum."I have to marry Estella if I don't want the Omega I love to get hurt," he said sadly.The flow of time in my head suddenly stopped midway. Just now, I got what I was looking for as my reason for sneaking into this palace; a reason why Matthias should marry Estella and leave me."Is someone threatening you, Matthias?" I asked seriously but carefully. He who was on top of me now, was semi--conscious. The effects of his mating made him look like a drunk.But that's exactly what allowed me to take advantage of his drunken state, to dig deeper into their very mysterious marriage."Isabelle's life is in danger," he sa
-- Kingdom of Matthias -- Royal servants' hall -- 6.00 am. .... I woke up with an aching sensation across the surface of my joints. The earth's ozone layer, which had recently dropped heavy snow, replaced the unusual suspicion of darkness that surrounded the entire cold room. All I could catch from yesterday was that I was talking to my servant about Arthur. And the next day I returned to this room, with Matthias beside me. He was still fast asleep, with his naked body bearing witness to our illicit copulation last night. ‘Ha .... What have I done? This is not what you should be doing, Isabelle. Sleeping with Matthias will only make Estella more suspicious,’ I muttered to myself, realizing just how stupid my actions had been last night. And sure enough, what I'd feared fell before my eyes. Estella realized Matthias' disappearance and broke the door to this room down. A commotion was triggered in the morning as she witnessed her groom-to-be in bed with an Omega maid. "You stupid
"Matthias has gone mad. I warned him not to be rash when he got that threat, and he did just the opposite," Walking over and pulling me up in a hurry, Arthur complained about Matthias who also seemed to have understood the situation."Arthur, I don't understand that threat you spoke of," I retorted while determined to keep up with his fast pace. "Who exactly is threatening Matthias? Does this have anything to do with Frederick?""No," Arthur replies quickly. "Estella knows you are the lost daughter of Esther from the kingdom of Magnolia. And she did it to attack you. Don't you know that Theodosius' kingdom and yours are enemies?"I swallowed my saliva along with my breath with a tightening sensation in my chest. "My parents once discussed that. The kingdoms of Theodosius and Magnolia have long been at odds."Arthur nodded his head and glanced his pale face at me behind him. "And Estella used that to fuel the fire between the princes. She said she would denounce your true identity to W
