All Chapters of My Heart Is Now Yours: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

The exact moment Reyn Aldric was officially reinstated as the heir of the Frostfang Clan in the Moonlit Hall, I received a message from my attending witch doctor, Ivy Harrington. "Serena, if you don't replace your heart soon, you won't have much time left."On the grand stage, the presiding elder asked Reyn to share a defining moment before his return to the royal bloodline.Reyn's piercing gaze swept toward my seat."Speaking of unforgettable moments," Reyn said coldly, "I'd like to ask Selena Valtara from the Sanctuary of Healing—when you left me for money and status, did you ever regret it?"My face flushed red, but the life-or-death notice, still fresh in my mind, kept me composed."Your Highness, congratulations on reclaiming your place in the Frostborne royal family. So, would you be willing to lend me three million dollars?"The hall fell into dead silence, broken only by a thunderous command, "Throw her out! From now on, I never want to see this greedy woman again!"I

"Ledger? My apologies, Mr. Rothwell, but I happen to have one as well," Luna said smugly. "It clearly records that Selena embezzled a total of three million dollars. And what a coincidence—Ms. Valtara's personal account shows an expense of exactly three million dollars just yesterday."Luna's smile darkened as she continued, "It's hard not to suspect that Ms. Valtara knew about our audit beforehand and took measures to transfer the stolen funds."Everyone turned to look at me in confusion. "Ms. Valtara, do you have anything to say for yourself?" Reyn's voice was cold, but there was a hint of expectation hidden beneath.Yet no one knew about my mechanical heart, except for Ivy, my witch doctor. To my colleagues at the Sanctuary of Healing, I was simply a poor woman with a weak heart; they didn't think it was anything serious enough to disrupt my daily life."There's nothing to explain, Reyn. You, of all people, should know exactly where that three million dollars came from." My voice w

"Selena, wake up! Selena!" Ivy's urgent voice jolted me out of my memories."Thank the heavens, you're finally awake! I thought you'd never wake up again."Tears streamed down her face as she cried even harder. "That Reyn isn't worth your devotion! You've sacrificed so much for him, yet he humiliated you like this and even let you get injured in a duel! "If I hadn't gone looking for you when you missed your appointment, you could have died. Do you even realize that?""Thank you, Ivy. You saved my life again," I said, sincerely grateful to her. "I'm not saying this to make you thank me. I just want you to see Reyn for what he really is. Does he truly deserve everything you've done for him?"Just as Ivy finished speaking, the door swung open.It was Reyn and Luna. Reyn strode in, his face filled with urgency and concern. The moment he saw I was awake, he let out a deep breath of relief."Well, well, well. Selena is perfectly fine. If people didn't know better, they might think

"I just wanted Ms. Valtara to have a drink and apologize to me. What did I do wrong? Don't you know how much I've suffered lately, Reyn?" Luna pouted as she leaned into Reyn's arms."It's not that, my dear. You misunderstood. She should apologize to you. I'm just saying that making such a scene on a live broadcast could affect your reputation."Luna clung to Reyn and said coquettishly, "It doesn't matter, Reyn. I'm willing to do anything for you. Right now, I just want Selena to drink this and apologize. As long as she finishes the bottle, I'll forgive her.""As you wish. Drinking shouldn't be a problem for her." Reyn affectionately tapped Luna's nose before turning to me with cold indifference."Well? Hurry up and drink. Don't make my princess upset.""I can't drink right now, Reyn.""Why are you pretending this time? Have you got yet another excuse?" Luna snapped, her patience running thin. "Someone! Force her to drink it!"At her command, her Wolfkin guards grabbed the bottle

"Selena, I'm sorry. Let me hold you one last time, please?" Reyn pleaded with guilt in his eyes."Reyn, you don't have to apologize. This was my choice. I love you, and I have no regrets about anything I've done for you. As for a hug, let's not. You have a wife now."I refused Reyn's embrace, even though deep down, I longed to feel his warmth once more.But in the next moment, Reyn pulled me into his arms by force.His embrace was so warm, so familiar. Wrapped in it, I felt myself drifting away, as if I had fallen into a deep sleep.In my dreams, Reyn whispered to me that he still loved me.When I slowly opened my eyes again, I felt a surge of strength course through my body. Everything before me was pure white. Was I in heaven?"Selena! Thank goodness, you're awake!" Ivy exclaimed happily."Ivy? How are you in heaven too?" I asked, confused."Selena, open your eyes and look properly! We're in the hospital. You're alive. But…" Ivy hesitated, the worry in her eyes evident. "R
