I stood near the edge of the dance floor, hands clasped, heart hammering not from excitement but from nerves.

I had come to the dinner party alone and was planning on avoiding Dravon throughout the event.

Why?

Firstly, I didn't have an answer for him yet. I still haven't made up my mind on whether to accept his marriage proposal or turn it down.

While his idea was nice, I still had doubts planted by Anita this afternoon.

I lied when I said I wouldn't overthink what Anita said, I spent my entire training ruminating on her words and the cautious part of me wanted me to back down on the offer.

The calculative side of me was already trying to search for a way to accept the offer without losing anything in the end. The idea of drawing out a contract was beginning to emanate.

Then there's the optimistic side, edging me to trust Dravon and agree to the proposal.

My entire emotions were a mess.

The second reason for avoiding Dravon at this event was because Anita was still his fiancee.

  • CLAIMED BY THE DEMON KING: DARK ROMANCE   095| The after effect

    ELARA’S POVI did that and suddenly I could feel the heat from his body. I focused on those deep blue eyes I loved so much and the world around us seemed to fade. All that mattered was him.I knew my heart wouldn't be able to be still tonight immediately I spotted him wearing his tailored black tuxedo. He looked so effortlessly hot that I had to make sure I wasn't drooling.He was causing trouble for my heart and stomach by looking this good.Handsome guys do bring a handsome load of trouble.“There's no silence heavier than the silence bearing unspoken thoughts.” Dravon said, bringing my attention back to him. “A penny for your thoughts?”A lifted my brows delicately. “A penny? My thoughts are worth more than that.”“Name your price.” He casually said.“My thoughts are priceless, it's for me alone.”He gave me a smirk as I moved away from him, spinning back into his arms.He dipped me and brought me back to his arms with such intensity and force that made our body collide.My pulse q

    ELARADid she also know that it was just for a year? That it was just a charade?“How do you know that?” I inquired, narrowing my eyes at her.“My source of information doesn't concern you. I'm just here to give you advice.” She said, her voice suddenly sweetened and smooth.“I don't need your advice Anita.” I shot back.“It’s Lady Anita, and yes you need my advice Elara.”If I had my way I would've left the Court room immediately we were done, but Elder Hana pleaded to everyone to stay back because she wanted to make an announcement.Dravon, Thorne and Elder Huncho were all in a serious conversation. I couldn't join them.I was stuck here with Anita, I decided to hear her out so she won't keep pestering me.“Fine, let me hear this great advice you want to give me.” I said sarcastically.“This is advice from a fellow she-wolf, not as Lady Anita, Dravon's fiancée.” I held myself from rolling my eyes.“Stay away from Dravon, not because I want him but for your own good. I know that Dra

  • CLAIMED BY THE DEMON KING: DARK ROMANCE   Chapter 92: Anita Knows

    ELARA'S POVI stared at myself in the mirror, straightening my dress even though there were no wrinkles on it.I was wearing a beige satin wrap dress with a wrap over design, which had an adjustable waist. It had a deep v neck, but not too deep to show my cleavages.I had curled my hair into deep waves, wearing a nude lipstick and a small hoop golden earring.I carried my black mini bag, moving back and looking in the mirror to see how it pairs with the outfit.“This was appropriate for a court meeting.” I said to myself, satisfied with the way I looked.When I came back to my room last night, I received a note from Dravon inviting me to today's court meeting.It was odd, since he wanted me to stay away from Lord Veyra and there's a 99.9% probability Lord Veyra would be there.I'm guessing I won't be allowed to speak like last time. I paused at my shoe rack, debating on whether to put on a black pumps or heeled sandals.It seemed like I was doing too much just for a court meeting but

    MIA’S POVMy eyes widened at the realization. “How do you know?”She tapped her nose with a smile.“Your nose?” I asked.She nodded and I gave her a confused look.“I've always suspected that you two were already familiar with each other prior to the incident at Winterwood, but I wasn't sure. However, the time I knocked on your door a few days ago and you came out almost breathless, I knew you were with someone.”I still didn't understand. “I could've been with anyone, how do you know it was him?”Luna Elara chuckled before answering. “His scent. I have a sharp memory when it comes to others' scent. I could smell Thorne's all over you when you came out. That's when I confirmed my suspicion.”I remembered when Luna Elara interrupted Thorne and I kiss a few days ago. I was conflicted on how to explain Thorne's presence in my room but I later decided that it wasn't the right time yet.I went out giving a weird excuse on why she couldn't come into my room. I found it odd that she didn't p

    MIA'S POVI let out a huge sigh as I walked back to my room, dragging my feet on the floor.Michael was right. Working in the royal garden sounded fun until you actually dive into it.Yes you would be surrounded by beautiful flowers, plants and trees but you'll also have to learn to maintain them with their different requirements.I was grateful to be assigned to the floral session of the garden, only taking care of the flowers. Those working in the greenhouse and orchard had it worse.The pay was attractive though, I guess that's why most people are still there.Though it's a bit hectic, I liked my job. My colleagues and the managers are nice, I get to learn about and be surrounded by flowers all day and I also get paid. It's one of the best things that has happened to me since I came here.I can't wait to get out of this outfit of mine and bathe. My body was already sticky from sweating all day.My eyes caught a familiar figure coming out from the hallway.I don't know much about t
