Charles' POV“Where do you think you're going?” William stopped me with his voice before my feet could reach the exit. “We haven't finished talking yet. Sit quietly like a prince should.”I wasn't in the mood to answer that nonsense. I only let him catch a glimpse of my face, as I turned my expression in front of him. “You think I have time here? While Rosie is still conscious, I'll take her to my castle. There's a great healer there who can cure her.”“And you think I'd allow that?” he retorted instantly, sharp as the claws of his face hitting me. “You think it's not for nothing that I let you into my castle, even to see Rosie?”“What do you mean?” I said, not understanding. He was silent, not with his eyes on the figure of someone standing behind me. A crowd that I didn't realize had been there for a while. They were members of my colony.“Biwako? How do you know this place?” I greeted the old alpha with surprise mixed with suspicion. I hadn't realized her magic before he appeared h
Charles' POV“Charles, please listen to me.” Elder Arthur jumped up from his seat, ignoring his neck that was injured from my strangling earlier. “Listen to me, my grandson. You can find another Mate. But you must let Rosie go, she is not a good Mate for you.”What crazy thing did this old Alpha say just now? The one he said wasn't a good Mate was the same Luna who had saved my life! He said it as if it was Rosie who had endangered my life all this time!“I don't know if you believe it or not, but Luna Rosie came to our palace with the intention of revenge. Her mother was murdered, and she suspects we did it. There are only wounds you will get if you let her become your wife,” he said with an expression filled with despair.I stunned.I... don't understand. They shouldn't know anything about Rosie's revenge intentions. That secret is a contract that only she and I know about. “And didn't you choose her because she was competent to guard my bloodline? You changed your mind after bringi
Rosie's POV*one day later*“Prince Charles!?” My body jumped. The shadow that woke up amidst the guards of my room, was not the Alpha who should have come after receiving the examination letter from me. The figure that shouldn't be here, with the powerful magic that I longed for, made me shed tears with great shock.“Prince!” I hugged the body, which was frozen from outside. I didn't care. I knew our relationship wasn't this close, and I knew he hated me. Hates me very much. But I couldn't help but be happy to see him standing at his best.No one else but me knew how horrible it was to watch Prince Charles' body freeze from blood loss. With his heart stopped beating, he almost died on my lap. That memory when crossing the street, I could do nothing but feel very scared.“Thank God, thank God you're safe, prince,” I said with sobs running down my face. “I... I don't know what happened after that. I was afraid my heart wouldn't react in your body. But it looks like you're okay. I'm so
“I doubt I could allow that to happen, Luna,” he retorted to me, as ignoring my orders, and instead leading me to sit on the bed. “Since everything that happens here is by direct order of His Royal Highness Prince Charles. If you have any concerns, I suggest that speaking to him is the best solution.”Hesse left me after he asked permission to prepare my bath. While he was gone, my room was visited by an Omega. She was wearing something like a piece of cloth, which covered her face. Not only did he enter without permission, but she dared to approach me without saying anything.“Who are you?” I asked, throwing a lukewarm welcome to her arrival. If I'm not mistaken, she was the Omega who held Charles' hand earlier. She was here to make me even angrier? I still hadn't even gotten over what she did earlier.“Come on, Luna. Don't be fierce like that. We're best friends, now. Need me to help you shower, so you can remember me?” The omega replied, through the sheet covering half her face.A
“Hesse,” I called as the Alpha strode off after the doctor. He turned his face away when I called him. “Explain all this. I know you're hiding something from me. Come here. Don't think you can escape.”He dragged his feet very forcefully in front of me, not with his face refusing to look back at me. “I have other things to do, Luna. If you can, tell me quickly. You should also rest after cleaning your body.”I clenched my teeth in annoyance. Does he think I don't know about his alibi? He realized I was going to ask about what the doctor had said. He who said he was only there to serve me, was now rushing away like he wanted to run away from the question.I took the glass of tea provided in this room, which had cooled down earlier. I poured the glass of tea all over my body, pouring it until my body was soaked in the sweet liquid. Hesse's mouth fell open, widening in disbelief.“My body is dirty, now, you had no reason not to tell me,” I hissed. He thought he was the only one who could
Rosie's POVPrince Charles, he's protecting me. Alexa's slap didn't hit me because a hand blocked her blow. My eyes looked at his expectantly, hoping he would look back at me. But until the hand was removed from its destination, he paid me no heed. I looked down listlessly.“P-prince! It's not what you think!” Alexa's squeal turned frantic. The anger on her face was instantly replaced with anxiety that made her face pale. Clasping both of Prince Charles' hands to his chest, he burst into fake tears.“It's all because of Rosie! She forbade Hesse to serve me!” he cried in a trembling voice that begged for mercy. “I meant it! I just wanted a drink and she forbade it.”My teeth chattered at this evil omega's manipulative false excuse. What the hell was that slander? He was the one who ventured into my room first, even when Hesse forbade it. Dealing with this toxic Omega always blamed everything on me.“Alexa,” Prince Charles said, he brushed Alexa's hand away from him in a very cold gestu
“What does he care? The prince doesn't even care about me,” I complained, continuing to cry until all the makeup on my face was washed off in vain. “Why bother bringing me back to the castle just to ignore me? Why not just dump me like he's dumping me now.”“Luna. The banquet will begin soon. The Prince requests your presence.” An Alpha aide interrupted my time alone with Hesse. My body was forcibly pulled by Hesse to the dressing table.He smeared sticky powder on my swollen eye area. “This way, your eyes can be covered a bit,” he said in a rush. “If the Prince says anything at this point, just say you have a cold allergy. This will save you.”I really didn't want to attend the banquet this morning. What if Prince Charles brought that Omega again? I wasn't ready to accept the pain of rejection like he did with that Omega.I spent the rest of the night thinking hard. I didn't want to admit what was going through my little mind, but there was no other meaning Alexa had unless she was t
Rosie's POV*Four months later*“Congratulations, Luna! Your baby is thriving!” cheered an Alpha doctor named Jessy. She unfolded an examination result in her hand, showing it to me after an hour of her struggling to print out the sheet of paper.“Here, your baby is sleeping peacefully. Your baby is very healthy, Luna. He is not affected at all by your condition. Ah, forgive me. I didn't mean to...” Her hand covered her mouth after seeing my reaction unpleasantly.I shook my head with a smile. “That's okay, Doctor. More than that, is there any sign of awakening from the magic? That's what I came here for,” I asked for the umpteenth time.The eager look on her face faded into awkwardness. As I waited silently for the answer to come out of her mouth, the doctor got up from her chair and left me alone in the royal medical room.“Looks like not for today either, i guess,” I muttered to myself. Since I had nothing to do here, I followed the doctor's departure and made my way to my room. Ri
Rosie's POVPrince Charles is just using me? Just because my face is similar to that Luna, he mated with me? Just because he wants to make me his replacement Luna? Luna Delancy, she has a very similar face to me. No wonder when I first met her back then, I felt like I saw myself in her.'Could it be that long ago, Prince Charles had it all planned out? There's no way he brought me to this castle without planning it from the start. If so, is the reason he agreed to my revenge agreement because my face resembles Luna Delancy?' My head was spinning thinking about this.I know what I'm witnessing now is just a dream. I realize this isn't real. But a Luna never really just sees a dream without any meaning in it. The dream I see now, too, is part of my successor's past. In other words, the Moon Goddess wanted to show me something.The screeching sound of the horse-drawn carriage tires fighting against the steepness of the broken road woke me up from the darkness of the nightmare abyss. My e
Rosie’s POVLike being pulled into a different dimension, for several moments, my body remained rooted to the spot where I stood with my eyes fixed on Luna standing with Prince Charles in front of me.It was like I was watching a show in which there was a story about a Luna who looked exactly like me, let alone a face that was so similar and almost gapless, it was exactly like mine!In fact, I was so similar to her that I felt as if I was watching my own story from a different world. Because if she really was Prince Charles' fiancée five years ago, that means that Luna no longer exists in my world today.There, I saw Prince Charles who was spending time with Luna in a park in the afternoon. They were both watching the spring flowers fall, occasionally the flowers would fall and hit them. It was like being in a play and they were the main actors, of course there would be a trumpet filled with small colorful paper that would fly up and fall on them when the play finished satisfactorily.
Rosie’s POVThe sound of the horse-drawn carriage running on this uneven road made me feel even more disturbed, its loud sound piercing into my eardrums and making me feel even more annoyed. It was as if something was telling me to get off this horse-drawn carriage immediately, even though I knew for sure that wouldn't be possible.“Stop this carriage, put me down!” Ever since I was forcibly taken by them on this horse, I've always tried to rebel and put up a small fight so that they would stop the horse-drawn carriage that I was currently riding.I didn't want to leave, so I tried my best to make the carriage stop running. At least until I get the chance to get off and escape from here, or until I have the chance to go back and refuse to get on this carriage.But my words were just taken for granted, everyone was still busy with their respective tasks. They were actually doing what Prince Charles ordered to take me away from his palace, no matter if they had to coerce me like this.“
Alexa’s POV'Prince Wiliam, I can hardly believe it was you who did all this to me. If it hadn't been for me experiencing it myself, I might not have believed that you would be so heartless to an omega that you didn't want,' I thought while staring sadly at the Alpha who walked away from my original position, a prince who apparently didn't have the attitude of a knight.Someone who didn't show the slightest compassion even though he knew what I was going to do had a lot of risks, but he stuck with his decision.I know I'm the one who made it all happen in the first place, but doesn't he have a better solution than forcing me to face a fear I've never imagined before?Doesn't he have a better solution without having to humiliate me like this?Really, even crying won't heal the shame inside me. If I could, I would probably prefer to drown or disappear right now, but unfortunately I can't do that at all.These eyes then fell on Prince William who stepped away to leave me in the medical r
Alexa’s POVThe sound of Prince William's punch rang out loudly in the medical room, obviously because he hit me so hard that I fell to the ground in a terrible heap.‘Oh my god, that hurts! I didn't expect Prince William to be able to do this to me, I thought he would never dare to do violence to me because I was a woman here. I didn't expect that he could do that too,'’ I thought.I thought Prince William would feel pity and compassion for me who had gone through so much grief, grief that wasn't just ordinary grief, but I really felt sad and was afraid that I would have problems with the surgery.I was really afraid that if I were to die during the surgery, what would happen to me next? I was afraid of all the bad things that could happen to me now or in the future, but why did Prince William not want to understand my fears at all?Is my life so insignificant to him that he can even ignore these heart-wrenching cries?Not only that, but Prince William was also really so heartless t
William’s POVThe roar of my breath was getting worse as my ears continued to hear what Alexa said, it felt like all my struggles to hold back the turmoil of anger that had infiltrated my heart and head felt increasingly doused with oil to make me even more furious, if only it could be described, this anger must have made my head smoke because it was too long to hold it.I had been trying so hard to hold back my anger so as not to hurt Alexa who was testing my patience so much, but I couldn't hold back any longer. Even my hands were itching not to hurt her, Alexa was really testing my patience and kept provoking my emotions until I couldn't hold it in anymore.Slap!rgh!'' Alexa winced in pain as I unhesitatingly slapped her on the left cheek, furious that the omega kept begging me to save the baby inside her, annoyed that Alexa kept begging me to let the baby grow and be born into the world.Does she want to cause trouble for me and create trouble for herself?That omega really could
William’s POVDozens of times I had asked Alexa what made her choose to keep the pregnancy and hide it from me, ignoring my orders to terminate the pregnancy.But unfortunately Alexa was not at all willing to open her mouth and answer the questions I gave her, she remained silent and closed her mouth tightly.Obviously this made me even angrier at her and made the embers of anger inside me burn even more fiercely, it was only a matter of time before it could come out and burn Alexa without residue.''Alexa, I'm still waiting for an answer from that mouth of yours. You better say it now before I do something to you, you do know that I never play around with what I say, right?'' It was useless, no matter how many times I asked.Alexa would still close her mouth and not be willing to open it to say a word from her mouth. That obviously made me even more angry with what Alexa was doing, her silent action made me even more fed up with the drama she was creating.Alexa acted like I had no r
William’s POV''I really can't wrap my mind around that! How could you choose to keep that baby, when you already know that its presence is very dangerous for our future lives. I really can't digest that. Your decision really can't reach my mind right now, you're so naïve and so stubborn!''''It wasn't just once or twice that I told you to terminate the pregnancy, but why did you insist on keeping it?! Did you not use your brain to think clearly before making that decision!?''''How did you think that through! How could you choose to keep the pregnancy and let the baby continue to grow there until it got that big,'' I scolded Alexa in front of me, not caring about her who was already looking sad and was starting to get confused about what to say in response to my words.''All this time, I've known many other omegas who were far beneath you! But I've never found an omega dumber than you in the entire pack, you don't even have a fraction of the intelligence of those omegas who are far s
William’s POVSeeing how I stared at her and looked at her belly which was different from her normal size, alexa also seemed to be silent and mute. No longer daring to speak or move rebelliously like just a moment ago, she was completely silent with a very clear look of fear in her eyes.It's possible that she realized that she was caught red-handed by me and might not have a chance to escape or make excuses and deflect in front of me, I'm certainly not someone who is very easy to trick.Was it perhaps because of all that that he preferred to keep quiet and shut his mouth tightly?That Omega even just stood still without looking at me at all, he looked like someone who was frightened by the thought of something that he thought he could hide from me all this time but in the end had to be exposed so easily.''Alexa, tell me something. Don't you want to explain anything to me?'' I said, trying to provoke Alexa into talking, even though it all seemed useless. Alexa remained silent without
