When the darkness slowly crept in, the grand party started as the royals arrived in their luxurious limousines and fancy clothes with a theme of masquerade. Celestia is so creative when it comes to parties that she would make them extra enchanting and worth the experience.

The ladies were dressed in big ball gowns that reminded them of the medieval period, including the men, who were also looking princely to match the girls.

Erina's gown was personally chosen by Arden because he wanted it to match his own outfit. Her hair was down, and the waves of her hair were more enhanced, making her look like a goddess of beauty in its mortal form.

Erina saw the sparks in Arden's eyes as he looked at her with parted lips. She licked her lower lip and went to him. He offered his arm as she put her hand there and breathed heavily.

"You look so beautiful tonight," he whispered hoarsely.

Erina glanced at Arden, trying not to flush about it when she was obviously failing hard. Arden crouched and gave

    Erina froze when she heard her real surname, which is the surname of her mother, Aurora.She doesn’t know how to react. She’s scared, and at the same time, the only thing on her mind is that someone already knows the truth about her.Relax Erina…"Relax, Erina," the words of the woman joined what was on her mind and made her more confused.She looked at her curiously and intently in the mirror, trying to see the woman behind the red-hooded cape."I don’t have much time to explain everything to you, but you need to listen carefully, Erina," she said, which made Erina stand there confusedly while she could feel the tension that she was about to express."Aurora Evergreen isn’t your mother, and you are not her daughter," the woman said, which made Erina’s eyes widen.What? "You are the lost daughter of the Remingtons. You are Arena Remington."Erina’s shock tripled as soon as she heard the name which kept on making her curious for the longest days that she stayed at the Gunner’s mansion

    "Which means Erina is a witch?" Arienda gasped. The visitors were all shocked by what they just saw. They were now gathered on the other side of the mansion with lights on as they started talking about what happened.Mrs. Remington was so disappointed. She doesn’t know what to feel after finding out that Erina is part of the group that murdered her daughter."I really knew it! There’s something about that girl, and it now shows! She is cunning! She used the potion in order to make my son go madly and crazily in love with her! Look at how Arden has been behaving lately! He’s been so clingy to her when it’s clear to him that he only wants her as the bearer of his child!" Celestia ranted while the visitors, Jacob Gunner, and the Remingtons could hear the wrath in her voice.Mrs. Remington’s tears pooled in her eyes, and she felt bad knowing that there was still a witch left after what they had been through, who even looked exactly like the daughter.Erikson caressed her back while he di

    "Son, if she’s truly a witch and you hate her so much, why do you need to search for her body? Because if she truly let herself fall off the cliff, then we should be happy that she’s finally gone.""What she did is so unforgivable that even death isn’t what’s right for her, Mama," Arden’s voice thundered.Celestia shut her mouth as she saw the rage in his eyes that he couldn’t seem to hide. After the big scandalous incident last night, when tomorrow came, Arden gathered his soldiers in search of the body of Erina on the cliff and to investigate more about the witches.She can see the rage in him, but she’s a bit bothered by why he’s still trying to find the missing body if Erina is truly dead.Oh, I hope he’s not doing this because he still cares for that woman! But with Arden’s anger right now, he’s not satisfied, even though he saw it in his eyes that Erina let herself fall off the cliff.She doesn’t feel any remorse for exposing her last night because of what her family suffered du

    "You're here to pick up Draven?" the woman asked.Erina smiled and nodded. The woman glanced inside the room and called Draven. "Your Mom is here, Draven!" she announced. Erina tilted her head to see the reaction of her son, who was now picking up his things and getting ready to come out.The woman who's the teacher of Draven looked at Erina again."I am amazed that your son is very smart for his age! He's very outstanding for a five-year-old boy."Erina smiled. "Thank you..." Draven walked to them and bid goodbye to her teacher. Erina held his hand, and they started walking.When Erina fell on the cliff, during the moment she was falling, she remembered one of the rituals Aurora taught her in order to teleport to other towns.She didn't know what happened, but when she fell into the garden and the petals exploded after she lay on the ground, she realized that the ritual she made probably worked.The town looked so modernized, and it was filled with green surroundings. She's in the

    "Draven, I'll go to work now. You must behave, alright?" Erina said this to her son, who nodded while holding a slice of his favorite pie."Don't worry, Rina, we will take care of him, right, Draven?" Sancha smiled at him as she rested her hand on his small shoulders and tilted her head to see his expression clearly."Right, grandma! We'll play all day!" he said enthusiastically, while the elders nodded."Oh, we’ll watch a movie and eat pies!" his grandpa said.Erina chuckled and kissed his cheek to say goodbye. The elders assured her as well that they would take care of him while she was working.It has been her everyday cycle. She has managed the farm of the Sanders for the past few years, and she also works for a company where their farm has been offered to collaborate with them.She blended well with humans. After she found out that she’s Arena Remington, it would always haunt her that she’s been with her family all those times she was pretending to be Erina Riverdale, that she ha

    "Sir Arscott wants you in his office now, ma'am," her secretary said as soon as she went into her office."Right now?" she confirmed.The lady nodded. "Yes, Ma'am..."Erina did all she could to calm herself down while she was in the comfort room because she didn't want to make a fuss about Aiden Arscott having a lot of resemblance to Arden Gunner. She wanted to make herself believe that those two people were different from each other and that she was just overthinking things.She ran away from her past, and now that someone has shown up, it's bringing back a lot of memories she thought she had already buried.She tried to act composed while she was nearing the office of the newly elected CEO. She faced the door as she fixed her skirt and her tube top, including the black coat she was wearing. She also caressed her high ponytail hair as she put her hand on the handle of the doorknob and slowly rotated it to open.She slipped herself in and closed the door as she saw him on his table, r

    Erina knows where her frustration is coming from. It was because she had seen someone who looked a lot like Arden, who had the same body as him, who sounded like Arden as well, and who would look at him like Arden would graze his eyes on her as if she were a painting he was trying to decipher.She tried to stay formal and calm while presenting in front of the board members for their next project since she was proposing a new one to the CEO.But every time she would speak and explain it formally, she would always find Aiden's eyes looking at her intensely."What do you think, Mr. Arscott? I think her project is amazing," said one of the board members who looked at Aiden, who was leaning on his seat while his fingers tapped on the table restlessly."When are you bringing me to the plantation, Ms. Sanders?" Aiden shifted the topic, which made all of them look at Erina curiously.She cleared her throat."One of these days, sir...""Set a schedule. I want it done immediately," Aiden said i

    Erina obeyed it quietly. She wanted to complain about it, but knowing that he is the CEO, who has the right to order anything he wants from the employees in the company, would always make her remember that his ordering her anything he likes is not really something to be suspicious about.But to remember that he rejected her secretary—Mary Jane—would always drive her into confusion on why, out of all the women in the company, Aiden would rather order her.And he would rather eat with me. Those were just his usual orders to me, nothing more. Why doesn't he order someone else? What's in Mary Jane that he doesn't like?Out of curiosity, as they were waiting for the food, she just finished the order to request from the chef and would be brought personally into his office a few moments later. She cleared her throat to fire the question that was lingering on her mind."If you don't mind, sir, can I ask why...you don't like your secretary? Because I heard that...you send her to the other depa

    Erina’s cheeks burned in heat when she suddenly remembered how shameless Arden Gunner was. She completely opened the door and glared at him for a warning that Arden found so cute because he could sense she wasn’t holding back from him anymore. She’s completely stripping herself.When they both entered the kitchen, the first thing that welcomed them was their eyes looking at them, waiting for Arden’s presence.And to see Draven again, this time confirming that it was his son, he was lost for words. His stomach was churning, and he was melting from it.When he first met him, he felt like he was only watching his little version because of how similar the resemblance was. They were like carbon copies of each other, and Arden could guarantee it might be his son.But it hurts him at the same time every time he remembers how he saw Erina falling off the cliff because of the fear and regret in her eyes that night while he was running to her aggressively in his werewolf form.Thinking about it

    Erina was already in her room while looking out the window to check if Arden’s car was still there. And it was. She was urged by him to sleep, and now that she could see he was really serious about guarding the house, she felt a bit ashamed that she doubted him and accused him.But she couldn’t blame herself for feeling it because she knew that she had done the Gunners wrong, and she was getting blamed for the consequences of her actions.She sighed and went to bed as her wind was wondering. They fucked. It was like she was straightly telling him she likes him and she’s longing for him too.She closed her eyes and pressed her lips against the pillow while feeling so flustered that she could still feel him between hers because of the throbbing. She was getting butterflies, and she was now in ecstasy.Erina, you are really crazy for that man, aren’t you? You know what would happen if you fell for him again. Look at what’s happening. You were attacked by men who were ordered by someone.

    Her moans resonated all throughout the car, and she could really tell that it was moving from the outside’s view because of how beastly Arden’s movements were. He was aggressively fucking her, ramming it all in like he was so pent-up, and he finally found a release.Erina hugged his nape as she was whimpering under him, and she could feel every thrust he made.They were both longing for each other, and it showed in the way their bodies collided that they couldn’t even take their hands off themselves as Erina was caressing his back, scratching her nails against it, and wrapping her legs around his hips just to coax him more into burying it deep.It was so rough and aggressive that the windows of the car were starting to smoke as if there were snow in them because of the heat they were both radiating.Arden shifted the movement, and he was now sitting as Erina whimpered more when it only reached the brim. Arden crushed his lips against her and tripled the pace of his movement so that Er

    Erina’s stomach was churning continuously. His words deeply moved her, and at that moment, she was on the verge of letting go of her decision and risking trying it again with Arden.But then, there was always that barrier that was holding her back—that boundary she put between them because she felt like the cycle would just repeat over and over and she would always lose him in every lifetime. She would not have him the way he wants it.She slowly shook her head, but then Arden placed his hand on her cheek, his eyes twinkling with pleading as if he were providing all the assurance she needed at that moment to convince her. Just to make her see that he would never hurt or kill her.“I would never lay a finger on you. No. I wouldn’t do that. I would never...” he whispered in his croak voice, losing its strength.Erina’s tears pooled even more. The fact that it was right in front of her, and all she needed to do was grab it, caused her immense pain.“I’d protect you and our son,” he whisp

    The shock etched his face as soon as he heard it. He felt so weak, and even his head immediately turned bloodshot. His jaw clenched tremendously while he froze where he was standing, staring at Erina unbelievably.“D-Draven, he is your son,” she confessed as her shoulder rocked slowly when she sobbed.Arden’s shoulder loosened even more. The tears in his eyes escaped, marking the first time Erina had witnessed him cry in front of her. He looked so hurt and betrayed, but at the same time, regretful.“I couldn’t tell you because I know that I’m at fault that night, and I’m afraid you’d punish me and include him.”Arden’s jaw clenched as his hand turned into a fist. Erina doesn’t care anymore if he turns into a werewolf and scratches her face; as long as after that, she will be even and he will leave them alone. But with Arden’s reaction, it seemed like he wouldn’t be satisfied by just a scratch, as the menace in his expression was intensifying.“You were thinking I’d do that to my own c

    The lump in her throat was making it worse. She knew that Draven obviously looked like him from all angles. She cannot lie about that part. And to hear it coming from Arden himself, asking about it and pointing it out, made her shiver even more.She is busted. She can’t lie about it. She might deny it, but how does she explain Draven’s features?Before she could answer, she felt bad because Arden had been so good to her in Rockmount. Though she felt his coldness from the start, the other days were so enchanting that she felt he loved her at that moment. He told her he loved her. And the way he handled her with care, it seemed like she was so fragile that he was too careful.As she opened the door and hurriedly walked back to the house, she shook her head, unable to express her feelings of despair.However, before she could reach the terrace, Arden was too quick to chase after her as he gripped her pulse.“Tell me the truth, Erina,” he desperately demanded.Erina’s tears were now casca

    Erina was hesitating, but at the same time, she was thinking about asking Arden about what was happening when she left and why he was in the mortal world. Though she knows that he is looking for someone, now that she has confirmed that he is Arden Gunner, she doesn’t want to buy that excuse from him that he didn’t mean any harm. Arden approached her that night in his werewolf form, and she had no choice but to fall off the cliff rather than allow him to devour her. This was because the face of betrayal lingered in her mind.She slipped into the front seat and glanced at Arden, who was now looking at the food she had brought. He was opening it, and his expression lightened when he confirmed it was the chicken Alfredo whom Draven was talking about.“You cooked this?” He asked gently.She nodded and looked at the food as well. “If you’re not used to it, since I know you prefer the cook of a chef, like how you used to in Rockmount, then just don’t expect too much. I’m not a good cook.”Ar

    Aiden was already boldly expressing that he was Arden Gunner and that he knew she was Erina, the one who made him fall in love with her just to make a fool out of him.Erina suddenly remembered what he said about the woman she was trying to find, expecting she wasn’t dead yet. She doesn’t want to believe that Arden isn’t mad at her, because who wouldn’t be when she has already memorized and seen how Arden Gunner would never forgive anyone who did him wrong?“Leave and don’t ever come back again,” she said warningly, and she went back to the house.She saw Mrs. Sanders, who was peeking in the kitchen and immediately went back. Erina controlled her aching heart as she wanted to slap herself for feeling it for Arden.Now that she really confirmed Arden was Aiden Arscott, she could really tell that he was pursuing her to just imitate what she did to him in Rockmount.Her tears escaped as she wiped them off, as she didn’t want to feel any sympathy for him. If she went out and let him in, t

    The two Sanders were highly convinced by Erina’s alibis about her getting distant from Aiden Arscott for the better. The two oldies were so worried for her, and it worsened more when they saw the other scratches on the living room—something really had disarranged it. If Erina didn’t clean up the mess, the two oldies might really prefer to just leave the house right then.But it wasn’t that easy to leave. The land was there, and even the ongoing harvesting was to be delivered to the company handled by Erina.Though Erina already covered the whole place, she wouldn’t let any of the wolves enter the houses again, but how about their safety? They can’t stay inside forever. There are everyday things they would do.Erina was having a hard time making some adjustments, but she needed to do it. She made sure that the two wouldn’t leave the house as she took Draven to school and talked to the head of the school about allowing him to homeschool instead, for some reason.She can’t just leave her
