Erina was taken aback by Aurora's speculations. She's thinking that it was Arden Gunner who murdered Arena, his mate? Can he really do that?Well, of course, Erina. He has murdered your entire kind, and there's a big chance he could do it to Arena as well. There's something about it that's tainting her mind and giving her a foreign pain in her chest. She can hardly convince herself that Arden murdered Arena as if she were holding on to something to give him the benefit of the doubt, even though a part of her is already embracing the half-truth as told by her mother."You were called by the King, Miss," the servant said after she took a shower. She's been staring into the air for how many hours while thinking about her talk with her mother? She even forgot to mention that something has already happened between him and Arden—that maybe one of these days she's going to bear his child already. She cleared her throat, stood up, and faced the mirror to fix herself. While looking at her
The pleasure still lingered in Erina after their vigorous sex, and she can still feel her legs shaking a bit. She was so satisfied, and yet she could still feel how sensitive her body was while she was already lying by his side.Goddammit, Erina. You can enjoy the sex part, but don't get so carried away that you are craving more! This lust might blind you from your true mission!She's turning her back on him, and she doesn't want to face him. But then, her body chills when she feels his kiss on her shoulder, his hand pulling her body against him until she's pinned on his massiveness.She shut her eyes when she felt the hardness on her buttocks. His calloused hand is caressing the sides of her body while his lips are taunting her shoulder with kisses."I will let it slip. But always remember that I don't have a lot of patience, Erina," he whispered raspily.She can feel her body reacting to his words, which made her shudder."Alright," she said in almost a whisper, letting him dominate
No matter how much Erina tried not to express too much emotion about it, she couldn't stop her stomach from churning. But she wants to make a stand and stand with it because she doesn't want to go downstairs while seeing the daughter of the Rockwells."You should go downstairs. I'm fine here. Keep entertaining your visitor," Erina said, eager to stay in her room.Arden pressed his lips against each other. Damn, this woman is jealous. It's very obvious, and I can really sense it.Arden sighed and stood up straight. Erina thought he was going to come out, but she froze a bit when he went to her side and sat beside her.Erina cleared her throat as she tried to concentrate on what she was reading. Arden crossed his arms as he looked at the page as well. Erina can see him in her peripheral vision, and it's really distracting her.He wanted to marry that woman, right? Then why is he here in my room, then? Why doesn't he go downstairs and spend his whole day with that woman?Someone knocked,
Erina is quite shocked that Arden is ordering his mother to make the Rockwells leave the mansion. And she hated it more because it made her feel things. It fuels her thoughts that maybe Arden would choose her instead of Rockwell's daughter.Shut up, Erina! Have you lost your mind? You knew your mission so well, and you are risking this? Because what? You've fallen?She can sense that everything would backfire on her if she didn't do what's right, what her mother Aurora wants, and what her real intention is while she's at the mansion.Erina changed her outfit for their horseback riding, given by her personal maid. She wore white-fitting leggings, black boots below the knee, and a black coat with an inner white top.Arden matched her equestrian outfit, which made him look more honorable, like a king, with his dark features.Erina cleared her throat as she looked at his proud stance, looking like a soldier who doesn't need his own battalion to defeat a large group of enemies because he i
Arden can't even take his hands off her, but a part of her doesn't want to take them either. She likes it secretly. It fueled her thoughts to savor the moment for a while, to live with it, and to let herself be happy for however many minutes without worrying about the reality of their real situation.Arden closed his eyes as he sniffed her neck, grazing the tip of his nose against her skin and letting himself rest for a bit. It was so comforting that Arden wanted to sleep.Is this what life means? He asked himself, slowly intoxicated by the addicted happiness he was experiencing at the moment.He tightened his hug around her. Erina groaned, which made Arden chuckle, amazed that she was trying to whine about the hug but her body isn't resisting at all.Her hair smells so good. Her skin was soft like cotton, and her small frame was fragile like glass. She's just too soft for my mass. She's too opposite in my world—a great menace, filled with darkness.She's like the rays of the sun in t
Erina was taken aback when Arden mentioned marriage. Her mind failed to process it thoroughly, leaving her confused for a while.He's talking about marriage? And what about the daughter of the Rockwells? What about her? And he can't be serious about it. I know whom he wants to marry because I heard it.What's the fuss now? Did he change his mind? But that's impossible.Arden noticed how it shocked her for a moment. He was hovering over her, so he saw how it made her serious while her brows were knitting."You don’t want to have a family with me? Because we are having a baby soon, Erina," he said in a low voice."And how about the daughter of the Rockwells?" She asked in almost a whisper, shocked that she could still talk despite the shock she was having."What about her?" Arden raised his brow as his eyes gazed at every corner of her face, memorizing it."You know what I’m talking about," Erina said, pissed that she needed to repeat herself.Arden’s eyes drifted to her lips. His hand
Arden filled her to the brim and made her moan resonate all over the place, which is her least concern knowing they were alone in the mountain, the empty forest with only cascading water's sound mingled in it.Arden flipped her body, pushing it as she bent over, parted her legs more, and entered her again, which made her gasp and shut her eyes.The ruthless thrust was blinding her entire system, and the only thing she did was whimper helplessly until she felt how Arden groaned like a mad beast and filled her while they both convulsed as the liquid cascaded down on her legs as well.Erina knew that she'd be pregnant one of these days, knowing that they have been doing it multiple times, almost every day, and for more than two rounds without him pulling out every time he explodes.That's the main purpose here, Erina, to bear his child. And that's his main goal as well: to make you pregnant with his child.Every time they would have sex vigorously, there was something about it that stirr
Arienda can see the similarities between Jacob Gunner’s face and Arden's. She can clearly tell that it's his father since they share the same features: both dark, menacing, and brooding.’But unlike Arden, who’s more dangerous, his father looked like a ruler who has a soft spot in his heart and is abruptly swayed by his emotions. He looked gentlemanly in the way he conversed, with no amount of rudeness dripping from his deep, low voice.Arden is quite a rude and bossy type of person. But a lot of girls admired him more for his physique, how he rules the mansion, and how he conquers territories in his own way, ruthless and fearless. Which made him unique. And that’s why I like him so much."You know how much I want for our son to marry and to expand our lineage; that’s why I called all of the girls in the town so he could choose a girl, but unexpectedly, he chose someone who doesn’t come from a wealthy family and who looked exactly like Arena Remington, his supposed mate in the past."
