Chapter 48
Lucian was standing at the window in the reading room, staring at the moon shining in its dim light. His body is here, but his mind and heart are elsewhere. "Violet ... I miss you so much ..." he said in his mind. He closed his eyes as he held back his sadness and his longing for her.
Lucian had not seen Violet since he left her palace. Selina didn't give him the chance to see her. She made him stay in their uncle's castle under the pretext of taking care of him. She ordered her maids to spy on his every move, so he couldn't go nowhere. She made him like a mouse in a cage with a possessive cat.Lucian opened his eyes and looked at the door of the room as it opened. He sighed helplessly as he watched the possessive cat walk in and stand before him. Selina's eyes gripped Lucian's. "It's late now. Why are you still in here?" she pretended to ask. She already knew the reason why he was still here."I'm not sleepy yet. I'm reading a book," he lied and gave her a fakeRelated chapters

"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

Lucian was sitting on a chair covering his face with his hands with his elbows on the desk in front of him. His eyes were closed and his brows furrowed. The sadness and despair gripped him so firmly that he couldn't think straight and didn't know what to do.When they celebrated Selina's pregnancy party a few days ago, all the guests could tell that Lucian was grieving. It was clear on his face, even though he had tried to cover it up with a smile. There was no happiness in his eyes, there was only sadness filling his eyes.Lucian's uncle realized that, and it made him even more curious. He wondered why his nephew looked so sad and kept thinking about something, even on such a happy day. Selina already knew that her husband would grieve at her pregnancy party. She kept trying to smile, putting on a happy face, but inside she screamed with the fire of anger burning within her."I have to meet her and explain everything to her," Lucian told himself. He kept thinki

Lucian and his men kept looking for Violet on their horses. They searched the entire kingdom of Merrill, but still couldn't find her. Lucian stopped his horse, followed by his men in the deep forest. They were so exhausted they had not slept for almost three days."Violet ... Where are you? Why can't I find you?" Lucian said in his mind desperately. Tears filled his eyes. His heart missed her so much and kept begging him to see her."My king!" one of the chief guards suddenly said, making Lucian and the others turn their heads towards him. "I just remembered that there is a secret path in this forest that leads to the Vidonia kingdom. It is to the west of this forest."Hope suddenly rose within Lucian upon hearing what he said. "Lead the way!" Lucian said in a hurry. "Yes, my king," the man said with a nod. He then ran his horse, followed by the others behind.The sun was almost setting as Violet and Darius' men almost arrived at the border between the Me

Lucian was sitting on a sofa in a bedroom with anger filling his eyes. Horace had brought him back to the kingdom of Merrill's palace and locked him in there. He had to do that because his beloved king had lost his mind. He had sent a message to Luther and told him everything that had happened. He was waiting for him and Selina to arrive at this palace.Lucian closed his eyes as he furrowed his brows. His jaws and palms clenched. The worry, sadness, longing, and despair that gripped him firmly made him go crazy and made his heart cry.Lucian opened his eyes and looked at the door of the room as it opened. For a second, he forgot how he felt when he saw his beloved uncle walk into the room along with Selina and Horace.It startled Lucian when Selina suddenly slapped him on the cheek. "Have you lost your mind?! You risked your life for that slut! How could you do that to me? I will die if you die!" Selina said into his eyes in anger. Her cry broke. She didn't pret

Aurora and Darius were lying on their bed. He was holding her in his arms. She had a happy smile on her face. Her heart beats happily. She was so fool. She didn't realize that she was in the devil's arms.The smile on her face suddenly disappeared as she remembered something. She lifted her head from his warm, hard chest and looked into his eyes. "Darius, when the meeting, why did you say those words? You were the one who told me to declare war," she asked, curious.His eyes turned into a worried, sad look. He already had an answer in his mind that he had prepared beforehand. He knew she would ask him the question. "I don't want you to fight with them because of me. Besides, what they said was right. War will bring suffering to our people and I don't want that to happen. But," his gaze turned serious, "We will fight back if Lucian dares to invade us." He smiled evilly on the inside, seeing her touched by his words. She believed his lie."But ... you said you had

Lucian and the others turned towards the door of the room when someone knocked on it. "Come in," said Lucian. The door opened and a man in black walked in and stood next to the others. "My king, I have news for you," the man said into Lucian's eyes."What is it?" Lucian asked, curious."Violet's mother has died a few days ago. The guards killed her in the forest when they fled from this place," the man replied.The man had shocked Lucian as well as the others by saying that. Lucian clenched his fists with his eyes filled with anger and sadness. He thought that his uncle and Selina had ordered the guards to kill her. He stood up from the chair and walked out of the room in anger to find Selina, followed by the others from behind.Lucian and the others stopped their footsteps when they met Selina and her maid in the hallway leading to the study room. Selina wanted to find Lucian in the room. Selina gasped in startle as Lucian grabbed her arm with his angry

Dozens of men on horseback entered a small village on the outskirts of the town in the night. The sound of horses' footsteps awakened the villagers who were dreaming."Kill them all! Show them no mercy!" one of them said in a loud voice.Shock and fear suddenly gripped the villagers firmly at the same time. Before they could blink, those men broke into the entrance of their house and started killed them.The man who was still on his horse smiled evilly, watching his men slaughter the villagers. He closed his eyes, enjoying the sound of screams of pain accompanied by voices begging for mercy. It was like the sounds of beautiful music to him.Those men then came out of the houses with blood on their hands and all over their bodies. They smiled at each other like they were just having fun. They mounted onto their horses and they all left the village while laughing.The village was quiet as before. There were no more screams of pain and voices begging

Lucian moved his eyes from Aurora's to the warlords. He gave her some time to calm her rapid heartbeat. She took a deep breath as she tried her best to hide her nervousness from everyone there. She was so nervous that she didn't notice that Darius was staring at her with his angry eyes. "Bitch! Just wait and see. I'll give you a horrible death," he said in his mind."I really appreciate for the message so that I can find out about the massacre. I didn't order my men to kill your people. Someone has accused me and he wants war to happen," Lucian said and looked at Darius, who was holding back his anger.Lucian looked back at the warlords. "I came here to clear my name, and I wanted to find out the truth," he said. His eyes told them he meant what he said. The warlords and Aurora paused, staring at him. Their eyes said they believed in him.Lucian walked over and stood before the warlord, who had a stupid brain. He put his hand on his shoulder with his
