All Chapters of Bound Heart: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

The moon and stars smiled, peeking at Lucian from the window in the reading room. Lucian was sitting on the sofa in the room, crossing his legs with his index finger on his lips while his thumb on his chin. He didn't read the book, he just kept smiling. He was relieved that since morning Selina had not come looking for him. This morning he got up early and went to his uncle's room and stayed there. He sighed as he closed his eyes. He felt like a mouse hiding from a hungry cat. He opened his eyes when he heard the door to the room open. He suddenly felt like a mouse found by a cat when he saw Selina walking into the room with a bottle of wine and two glasses in her hands, and stopped before him. "There you are. I was looking for you," she said with a sweet smile on her face. He forced himself to smile back at her.She sat next to him. "I brought some wine. Have a drink with me," she said into his eyes. He nodded to her without thinking. He was still s

The butler sighed sadly inside, looking at his king who was furrowing his brows with worry and sadness filling his eyes. King Turin did not eat his breakfast. He just kept staring blankly ahead. Seeing his beloved king like this made the butler's heart grieve.“My king, you must eat your breakfast before it gets cold,” the butler, who was standing beside his king, said in a worried tone.The butler's voice broke through King Turin's thoughts. King Turin turned his gaze to the table in front of him to hide what he was thinking and took a glass of water from it and drank it. The butler knew his king was trying to hide what he was thinking from him. The butler told himself he must say what was on his mind to make his king aware that the decision he had made was wrong. "My king, you must not let him stay. You must tell him to leave right now. The doctor said the stab wound to his chest was not deep. It will not endanger his life." The butler finally said what

The morning sun shone through the windows in the throne hall. King Turin was sitting on his throne, with Aurora sitting in the chair next to him. "My king, you can't let Prince Darius stay here. You'll make war if you do that," his advisor, who was standing in front of them, said with anxiety in his eyes.Aurora looked at him with anger in her eyes. "He will not leave here! Our king has ordered him to stay!" she said, raising her voice. She warned him he must not go against his king's orders.The advisor sighed inside, seeing his princess, who had blinded by love. The butler had told him everything. "My princess, we have to think clearly. I'm afraid he came here, not without reason."Anger burned within Aurora upon hearing what he said. "How dare you insult him! Accusing him without proof!". The advisor was about to open his mouth to explain what he meant, but Aurora didn't let him speak."He came here to ask someone for help. His butler, who took care of

Two days have passed since the incident that caused Darius' arm to break. The sun had set when Aurora, her father, and Darius were having dinner in the dining room. It was the first time they had eaten together in the room.King Turin's butler, who was standing in the room, sighed inwardly, seeing his king and his princess taking such great care of Darius. They ordered the palace chef to cook his favorite dish. King Turin made Darius sit in the chair next to him. He poured him wine, talked, and joked with him. They look like one happy family.Darius noticed the butler kept stealing glances at him with displeasing and suspicious looks. He pretended not to notice. He kept wearing his mask. Darius tells himself that he will gouge out his eyes and cut off his head once he becomes king.All eyes in the room suddenly turned to Aurora, as she wanted to vomit. She's been feeling unwell for the past week. Darius immediately got up from the chair and stood by her, putting

"Violet ... Wake up ..."Violet opened her eyes and saw her mother sitting next to her, holding her arm. She wondered why her mother was looking at her with such a serious look. "Mother, what is it?" she asked and sat on the bed, leaning her back against the headboard. "We have to leave this place," her mother replied.Her mother surprised her by saying that. "Mother, we can't leave this place. Those guards won't let us go," Violet asked with both worry and curiosity in her eyes. "You should read this," her mother said as she handed her the letter in her hand. Curiosity gripped Violet even more. She took the letter and read it."Helena, it's me Darius. Give the potion to the guards behind the palace. They will fall asleep after drinking it. Go to the inn on the outskirts of town. My men are waiting for you and Violet there. They will bring you both to me."Violet's heart raced. She smiled with a startle, happiness and relief on her face. She moved her eye
