Chapter 30: Disturbing Thought
DAHLIA:
The chilly look in my husband’s eyes was so frightening that I involuntarily took a step back away from the door.
But all of that was just in a split second. Perhaps realizing who I was, his face lit up into a smile.
“Dahlia, why are you here,” he said in a warm tone as he clicked the door of his study room shut, letting my final chance to see his guest escape into the air.
I didn’t know what to make out of his demeanor. He was like a ghost one moment and then he had become warm and inviting the next… Was his mood really this fickle?
“I’m sorry, I didn’t know I was disturbing something important,” I said. Was this kind and grinning Tristan before me the same Tristan I had seen a few seconds ago? It was a disturbing thought that I just couldn’t erase in my head…
“No, it wasn’t a bother. My business partner and I are about to end our meeting. Shall w

DAHLIA:“My lady, are you alright,” Lina said. A look of concern was washed over her face.I wanted to say ‘yes,’ but I was well aware that my appearance looked pale, and knowing that the full tray in my hand looked funny, I didn’t say anything. I just sat on the couch, brooding deeply.Who was Tristan talking to? What does he mean of ‘that girl,’ and what kind of promise is he going to keep?There was another thing I wanted to know more about. I called to my attendant, “Lina, did you mention to the lord what had happened between papa and I on the morning of our wedding day?”Lina opened her mouth to say something, but she abruptly closed it again, and her eyes fell into the floor. “Yes, my lady… I know you must have wanted to keep it a secret, but I just couldn’t hide it from Count Abell anymore… He insisted that I tell him everything that happens to you in the mansion

DAHLIA:“Tristan, y-you are mistaken… I didn’t… I really didn’t mean to hear anything…”“Don’t call me that,” he said as he crawled on top of me. “Call me master…”I backed away from him as fast as I could, but he was quicker. He held my wrists above my head, and began kissing me against the neck harder.I didn’t know what the devil came over him at that moment, but I was scared. I was helplessly pinned underneath him, and I had no way of escaping.He kept on kissing me and biting my flesh. It felt like I was making love with a beast rather than a man!I thrashed about the bed, making it creak hard on the wooden floor, but no matter how much I tried to struggle, it was useless.After some time, Tristan aligned my arms directly at the top of my head, making me yell in pain. He quickly wounded his belt around my wrists.It was far too su
Revenge of The Shadow Heir Chapter 33: Spare No Pity
DAHLIA: I didn’t know what came over me. I was enraged but also extremely exhausted. My body was hurt a lot, and my head was spinning. I wanted to throw up some more… Suddenly, I felt myself floating into air again, but in a different way. I never felt lighter in my whole life. ‘Sleep, Dahlia… I’ll take over…’ Eva’s voice was so comforting that I readily succumbed to it. I let myself float aimlessly into a void. I began to wonder… Why did Tristan do it? Why did my husband, a person who was supposed to love me, do it? Was this side of him always there? Was that the real face of the person I chose to marry? Maybe I made a mistake… Maybe I shouldn’t have married him too soon… In an instant, I became conscious of something else… I became aware of the smell of the earth and the feeling that I was going away somewhere else. ‘Eve… What are we doing?’ ‘We’re getting away, Dahlia… We have to get away…’ I succumbe
Revenge of The Shadow Heir Chapter 34: Despair
TRISTAN:Albus and I were very desperate. He started to summon Dahlia’s wolf through our mind-link.‘Eve, where are you?!’There was no answer, of course. What did I expect? Why should she return to me after what just happened? If I were her, I wouldn’t come back to a monster!I ran wildly into the path before me, feeling her heart against my chest. I did not tell Samalah about this, but right after I casted that mark tampering spell, I started to feel something weird inside my chest.It was as if something else was beating inside my rib cage alongside my own heart. It took me a few more days to realize that it was Dahlia’s heart.I didn’t know if it was an aftereffect of the mark tampering spell. As far as I know, the spell should only work physically by creating an illusion of a fated mate’s mark on one’s body. Feeling a mate’s heartbeat was supposed to happen only between real mates. W
Revenge of The Shadow Heir Chapter 35: Encounter In The Woods
KAIST: I was in the midst of a hunt when a strong smell of blood mingling with honeyed milk and cherries filled my head. I was about to drink at the spring in the middle of the woods, but I staggered. Am I hallucinating? Why can I smell Dahlia’s scent here at the heart of the woods? It has been a little more than two months since Dahlia failed to show at our wedding. I resented her for it. Since then, there was no night when my heart did not throb and ache for her. I knew that she was with that scoundrel Tristan somewhere, but what can I do? She had expressed her love for him countless times in my presence before. She had begged me to stop the wedding to be with that wolf, but I was the one who didn’t listen… I was the one to be utterly blamed. News would sometimes reach me in the capital on how Dahlia and her new husband were doing. I didn’t need to hear it. I can sense her state of mind despite the distance that loomed between us. For the fi
Revenge of The Shadow Heir Chapter 36: Dahlia’s Insistence
TRISTAN:“Dahlia, don’t leave me… Don’t leave me please!”My wolves and I reached inwardly to the core of our power – our spirit stone. I felt the pain in Albus’ forehead intensify as my spirit stone took form physically, making the diamond-shaped rune in my wolf’s head apparent. This was an indication that I was using my powers to the extreme.I was once told by my dad that the power of the sprit stone was dangerous, so I must always exercise caution. However, that does not apply at this moment. My mate was losing her life! I won’t permit it! I can’t let anyone else die because of me!‘Tristan…’ I heard Dahlia’s voice speak inside my head.‘Dahlia,’ I said back. I was trying to contain the relief I had felt when she uttered my name. ‘Dahlia, forgive me! Don’t die on me…’‘Why,’ she whispered back through our
Revenge of The Shadow Heir Chapter 37: Facing The Truth
DAHLIA:“It’s too bitter,” I said as I sipped the greenish liquid in my cup. I hated drinking anything that’s bitter, but Tristan stroke my head to coax me into finishing it like a child.“Just a little bit more… Just two more sips, and it’ll all be gone.”I made a nasty face as I braced myself to take in another sip. It didn’t taste any better on my second try, but I gulped down and held it into my mouth until not a drop was left.“Yuck! Remind me never to get this medicine again…”Tristan’s face looked agonized. He unwrapped what looked like a small treat in his hand and held it before me.“What’s that?”“It’ll take some of the bitterness away,” he said timidly.He held it into my mouth, and I had no choice but to take it in. It was a piece of chocolate, and it tasted very nice after that awful medicine.
Revenge of The Shadow Heir Chapter 38: Confessions and Discoveries
TRISTAN:I looked at Dahlly’s expression, and I knew she was serious when she told me she wanted to talk.There was no way I could escape her questions, and because of what I had done, I had no choice but to face them. After all, I did owe her some explanation and apology.But how come she knew the right buttons to push? Why does she remember the things I was trying so hard to hide from her?When she asked me about torturing people, I panicked internally. At that time when I said it, I was referring to my enemies – the people who had caused my mother, father, and the rest of the Shadow Rune pack to perish, and somehow, in one way or another, Dahlia might be part of them…Because she might really be the one who had caused my mother to lose her life, she might really be one of them, and for that, I was deathly afraid.I considered masking my answers with lies, but looking at her earnest light blue eyes, I was finding it extr
