Se connecterErica was surprised. "Punishment of his curse?"She could not quite understand. She was desperate to help Prince Adam. So she ignored his scolding and begged him."Please help him. He is in pain. H-He is not opening his eyes! I am afraid something happened to him!"Beta Lucian's eyes observed the brave woman. He almost could not believe that she went near Prince Adam when he was in a burning curse. Even he never dared to do that.If he could remember well, he once tried to reach out only to get hit in the back. When the moon shone, Prince Adam's curses deepened. It was the reason Adam told everyone to lock him.It was not the king's decision but his own decision to lock himself from hurting others."Why do you care?" he asked suddenly.Erica was taken aback. The question was really surprising. Why did she care if the monstrous wolf got hurt or died?She took a deep breath and replied, "He helped me many times. I can't just turn my back when he is in danger."Beta Lucian let out a scof
Third POVErica could not understand what was going on with Prince Adam. His monstrous wolf was on the floor, stopped growling, and almost dropped dead by her touch.She couldn't notice it was the influence of her touch, but she thought she hurt him more."I-Is it burning? S-Sorry, Y-Your Highness!" she almost yelped in fear.Her hand trembled against his soaked fur. She slowly removed her hand, biting her lips to see if the wolf opened his eyes again.A few minutes passed.Prince Adam's eyes were still closed.Erica's heart started beating faster like a marathon. She was afraid that something bad happened to her.She started to pat his wolf. "Y-Your Highness? Your Highness, are you o-okay?"Her eyelashes flickered with tears. It was dreadful and sad.She had no idea how much courage she had to gather to come here. However, this wolf didn't hurt her. Instead, it was in a critical situation where no one could save him.She lifted herself on her feet and stormed out of the room."Someon
Erica shook her head, feeling scared like hell. She did not want to die. She just came here to be brave.But her bravery turned into ashes as she looked at the wolf's eyes again. It was the Lycan Prince everyone talked about. She could not just gather her strength to stay here and let him kill her.Meanwhile, anger glowed in Adam's eyes when he saw Erica entering the room.He was so angry that he stopped a few feet away from her and growled at her.Her body froze against the door. Her eyes grew larger, and she looked frozen in fear there.Her fear enraged him even more.Was this woman there to make fun of him? Did she come there to remind him he was cursed? Was she making fun of his fate?His eyes pierced her.‘LEAVE!’He yelled in his mind that she couldn't hear.She only stared at him in shock and dread.Although he was in his wolf form, he was in full control. But sensing the omega's scent, his wolf wanted to take over him.It twisted his body, giving pain like breaking bones. He g
Third POVErica didn't want to come out of her room. But it was unknown to her why she took such steps. She was not aware of her actions.Her feet kept moving, slowly approaching Prince Adam's wing.A loud growl jerked up her body at the place from where his area began.Her full body shivered by the growl. It was ear-piercing, deep, and horrible. It could frighten even a head Alpha of any pack. The feeling of fear slowly bit her heart.However, something started itching inside her. She tightened her fists, her jaw clenched when she recalled how Prince Adam helped her.Would he kill her today?There was something telling her that he could not do that. As she told Ruby, she somehow trusted him.She closed her eyes and took a step forward with her mind full of sanity.She forgot how he behaved with him today; she forgot his mocking about Justin; she even forgot about the new woman she had seen today.All she wanted was to face the Second Lycan Prince she had always been afraid of.With e
Ruby was taken aback by my voice. "Who? Erica?"She was also surprised to hear me. She didn't expect me to call her."Erica, how are you? Where are you?" she asked me; her voice was worried.Tears blurred my eyes.I felt a lump in my throat when I tried to speak. I tried to control my tears and replied,"I-I am okay, Ruby. How are you?""I am just fine. Erica, I-I thought you..."I frowned. "I what, Ruby?"Ruby took a deep breath. I could feel her shaky breath on the phone. She was really shocked to hear me."Erica, everyone in the pack is searching for you. Everyone is assuming you are dead."My brows rose up in shock. "Dead?""Yeah, Alpha Justin—" She paused as if she realized she should not talk about that man.I closed my eyes when she mentioned Justin's name. I did not want to hear about him. But if that man were plotting any conspiracy against me, I would have to know that."W-What did he do now?" I asked, waiting for her to speak.She took a pause. She didn't speak for a moment,
From the moment Lenore left my room, I was really worried, scared, and full of wonder. She misunderstood that I wanted to get close to Adam. It was not true. I never wanted it and would never want it either.Still, her words were roaming in my mind. I hadn't left the room or the floor. I did not know why the maids hadn't come here to take me to another floor.All the time I only thought about Prince Adam's deep gaze on me. The way he looked at me at the breakfast table and then in his room, I felt chill whenever I recalled it.I thought about leaving the floor myself. So I opened the door and walked out.I noticed a few maids approaching my room with a tray of food. I stopped them in their tracks."We were about to give you your food. We were busy preparing a room for Miss Lenore. So we got late," one of the maids said.I was taken aback. "Miss Lenore? Is she staying here?" I whispered.They nodded their heads. They glanced at the direction of Prince Adam's wing and leaned close to me
My knees gave up and I fell to the ground. The three men's knees shook, and they also fell on their knees beside me. The growl was so powerful that it shook Justin too. But he controlled himself. The roar and that strong voice narrowed Justin's eyes. He looked behind me, frowning deeply. With pa
The air seemed to freeze around me. I stared at him, the man I once loved the most.Even after six months, I saw no regret or guilt in his eyes. He was the head Alpha, but he still did not want to find out the truth.Justin narrowed his eyes on me. “Why are you scrubbing the floor? Is this what you
“Kael...” I breathed, relief flooding through me.He looked at me calmly. “You look pale.”“I’m fine,” I lied. “Thank you... for healing me. And for last night.”His gaze lingered on me for a second, unreadable.Suddenly, “Damn the shift,” Kael said coldly. “Why are you so desperate to crawl back
I didn’t have time to think about Kael.I wrapped a black scarf around my face and entered the market, then headed toward the pack house.Outside, a few maids were whispering.“Miss Nova took that old woman somewhere.”My heart dropped.“Where?” I asked, disguising my voice.Before they could answe
