CASSIE

My patience paid off. After waiting until midnight, activity in Serenith finally stopped. The citizens were no longer seen in the harbor. This meant it was time for me to anchor the ship.

I carefully maneuvered the ship and made sure to tie off the docking ropes because I still needed this ship to return.

After everything was done, I continued my journey.

Although it's very quiet, somehow I feel safe here. I feel like I've been here before even though it's my first time. Maybe it's because I know Isabela is here or maybe it's something else.

The only tallest building in this place is the castle. And it seemed to be visible from all corners of Serenith because from the time I was on the ship to where I was right now, it was not out of sight.

I stopped for a moment to observe the castle. Around the building was something twinkling, like stars, but I didn't know what it was. But it made the castle look brighter than the other buildings. It was very splendid and delicate.

    CASSIEI can attack the man at this point and actually grant his request if he wants to see my animal side. But since my purpose here was not to fight him, I tried to restrain myself."I'll ignore your words this time. But if you're still blocking me, I have no other way but to tell Queen Isabela's secret to everyone and let them judge."“Your voice won't be heard because you're not of our kind.”"Oh yeah? Really? What if I try it?"I opened my mouth wide and was about to scream, but then the man grabbed the bridge's stone parapet and made one of my feet, which had been stuck down, go up again. The stone block I stepped on also returned to its original position.“That's how it works,” I muttered."I saved you from the trap because you said you had something important you were carrying. But if Queen Isabela didn't think it was important, I wouldn't have thought twice about throwing you off the bridge to be eaten by the fish down there."“Thank you for telling me to be more careful.”It

    CASSIEI blinked my eyes a few times.Now I understood why Isabela was fought over by Alexei to the point that he wouldn't marry any woman after her, even if it was just a one-night stand.She was like a real goddess, she was so gorgeous.Our eyes met and I could tell they were similar to mine.As if realizing that it wasn't just the two of us, Isabela gave the code through her eyes to her personal assistant who then left.“Come in, Cassie.” She invited me into her room.Actually, this is what a Queen's bedroom looks like. I've only seen it once in my entire life.Isabela held both my hands and her eyes were already glazed over. She saw the pendant I was wearing. "You are indeed my daughter, Cassie. I hardly expected to see you again." Then she hugged me tightly.Even though it was the first time this had happened, my heart could feel the emotion that Isabela felt. Maybe it was because of our blood ties. But I couldn't respond to her hug, I wanted to but not for now.There are so many

    CASSIE“You're right about me cursing Jayden, but I had a strong reason for doing so because my life and death were also at stake.”“What kind of reason would justify cursing an innocent person?”"He's not completely clean, Cassie. Jayden that you are talking about, he is also guilty."I sighed. "What's his guilt? Because he was born to a couple that you don't think should be together? Is that why you're cursed Jayden? Because he's the child of the man you loved whom he later ended up marrying with the other woman? Because of their parents? Because of mistakes Jayden didn't even make?"I sniffled my nose. "A child can't choose their parents, it's a fate they have to accept for life. Not only Jayden, I can't choose my parents either. So do you think he's still at fault in your problems with his father?""You don't know what it's like to be betrayed by the man you love so much Cassandra. When you put all your hopes in him, when he promised you things you've never gotten before, when you

    CASSIEI didn't mean to attack her emotionally, I just wanted to know why I was the only child she had. Because if she had other ones, she probably wouldn't fight over me with the others, right? I mean, there are only two parties, Alexei and Jayden, which I can still handle, but this is three parties, I'm overloaded.“I can't do it, Cassie.”"Why can't you? You have a husband, you have an empire to continue. So explain why you're not making more children!"I knew my voice was getting higher and higher. I said I was losing control of myself because everything Isabela said was a new fact to me."I can't sleep with a man I don't love. I keep mine only for the men I want. And Arlo is not that man. So even though we were married, we never did."I covered my mouth with both hands."So, in other words, I'm the outcome of the mistake you made with Alexei? Because the man you love is not him but Jayden's father, right?"“No, it's not like that Cassie-”"Enough, your answer already proves that

    CASSIE"Then what should I do now? Will there be a ceremony to use your magic?“”No need, I can do that right now by myself."Wow, so this is one of the perks for being a witch? No hassle to hold a ceremony like us if we want to do something beyond our abilities.“Sit down and close your eyes, I'll cast the spell.”I obeyed her guidance, sitting on one of the chairs here. But before closing my eyes, I wanted to ask something,"You're not going to activate the spell on everyone right? I mean, only Jayden won't be able to find my whereabouts right?"“If that's what you want, then I'll grant it so.”I nodded in agreement and then closed my eyes.I was prepared that it might be painful, but after counting the time, I felt nothing.“It's done.”I opened my eyes and furrowed my brows, "that fast? Did it work already? Without the need to feel pain?“”Yes, I just need to cast the spell. It didn't make you feel any pain because that's how our spells work. Did you do something that traumatized

    CASSIE[.... because the money you gave me wasn't enough, you will take care of it.] This call was unilaterally disconnected by father on the other side.To be honest, I still had no idea what he was talking about and was about to call him back. But suddenly when I had just put the stethoscope on my desk and was about to sit down, three men wearing masks burst into my office. One of them was carrying a rope and their eyes were all over me. I do not know who they are, but they are definitely not here for good intentions. So I slowly pulled out my desk drawer and took out a scalpel, gripping it tightly. Meanwhile, my other hand crept up to reach for the handle of the phone to call for help from hospital security.“Who are you? What are you doing in my office?”They didn't answer but they walked closer to me which made me walk backwards. Unfortunately I was trapped, there was no way out as I was on the 16th floor of the Pack Arcanum hospital building. “We are Madam Elie's people. You

    CASSIEMy breathing was getting more and more labored as I ran further and faster. It was also because my head was still covered by the black cloth. I could only vaguely see the road ahead. Sometimes I looked back, afraid that they would catch me.This time they laughed when I looked back, because we weren't too far apart. Their running ability and mine were much different. That made them laugh at me like a toy trying to run away. Even though I knew they could catch me at any time, I didn't stop running because I didn't want to let myself be taken to a place where I didn't want to serve men.My tears were reaching the corners of my eyes. And that's why my vision became increasingly blurry until I finally fell down from tripping. I could only cry because I couldn't scream. I dragged my body away from the pimp's men.“Too bad you're already tired, but it was fun to see you running around like a scared cat.” In the end, they forcibly carried me back to the car.My hands and feet were

    CASSIENoah and I were heavily escorted by Alexei and his troops. They escorted us to the border and even prepared a ship.So for now I had to pretend to go to Pack Nexus, until I got the chance to escape.“Are you sure you only need one backpack, Cassandra?” asked Alexei.“Yeah, it's only for one day anyway, so I guess that's enough.”I looked at Noah to give him the code through my eyes. We had agreed to part ways halfway through the trip. He took the ultrasound results and I went to see Isabela.Then I looked at my watch. Soon, though, it would at least work when the ship reached the halfway point, so I could turn the other direction immediately.“I have to go now,” I said.Alexei came over to me and gave me a farewell hug. "Be careful, don't get caught by Jayden. I'll be waiting for you."I smiled slightly and then boarded the ship.I honestly couldn't wait to meet Isabela, I wanted to end this mess. A mess that I think was created because of a misunderstanding. And I have to know

    CASSIEI can't stop wandering around since Noah agreed to come to Pack Arcanum. After my efforts to persuade him, he finally wants to fulfill my request, coming here to convince Alexei. If I can go to Serenith and persuade Isabela, that would be even better, right? If Jayden's curse is gone, then I don't have to worry about even breaking the bond with him because he definitely won't take our child, right? That's what I thought. I'd better talk to the curse maker directly since the ceremony will still take place on the next full moon. There's still a chance to prevent Jayden from starting a war since I was brought here. If he knew he still had a chance to have offspring with any woman, he would no longer pursue us. I stopped when I saw a car coming. It must be Noah!So without waiting any longer, I ran straight to the main floor. "Cassandra, don't run!"I ignored Alexei's warning. The sooner I met and chatted with Noah, the better. "Cassandra, how are you?""You're still asking
