Kyle's appearance immediately drew all of Olivia's attention away. She coldly snorted, her gaze like daggers piercing through Kyle, and she couldn't help grinding her teeth with force.I noticed her expression and asked Kyle in a low voice, "Did you two have another argument?""No," he replied casually."Then why is Olivia angry?""Who knows," Kyle deliberately drawled, glancing at Olivia, teasingly adding, "Maybe she was a pufferfish in her past life, needing to get mad every day to avoid exploding. Right, Claire?"Before I could say anything, Louis fake-smiled and pulled me away from Kyle's grasp. He put his arm around my waist, staring at Kyle, and said, "I've heard about you, the eldest son of the Lucchese family. You made quite a name for yourself during the last forest hunt.""Oh, Your Highness heard about me? What an honor," Kyle's tone was polite, but his expression showed no signs of being honored. I couldn't help but gasp at his boldness, but then Kyle suddenly turned to me
A few days later, whenever I recalled the words Prince Louis said to me in the playground, my heart would involuntarily race.This emotion was too overwhelming and intense, making me somewhat unsure of how to handle it."Helen," I chatted with my wolf, "do you think he was telling the truth?"Helen gave me a definite answer.Throughout whole history, each generation of Lycan treated their vows with great seriousness. It is said that since ancient times, the Moon Goddess and the Fate Goddess have been sisters. Therefore, every time a member of the royal family made a vow under the moon, the Goddess of Fate would engrave it on a stone tablet. If they break the vow, they will face tenfold punishment..When Prince Louis said those words, it was in the evening, and I wasn't sure if there was a moon witnessing it.However, before I could worry for a few days, Maria came to me again. She came with her some this time.It was my first time meeting Prince Chris. He looked like a mini version of
I stared in astonishment at Prince Louis, who opened the car door for me.Under the allure of his blue eyes, I instinctively placed my hand in his palm.His hand was dry, broad and strong, and securely held onto me, helping me down from the passenger seat.Today, I was wearing a pair of pointed Prada high heels, a gift from my mother. However, I wasn't quite used to their height. As I got out of the car, I lost my balance and nearly fell into Prince Louis's embrace.Luckily, he swiftly caught my waist.This relieved me. But just as I regained my footing and looked up, I was met with a barrage of flashing lights. Countless shutters clicked like waves crashing."Please look this way!""Claire, can you tell me how you captured Prince Louis's heart?""We'd like to conduct an interview with you, Claire. Do you have any free time in the upcoming week? It'll only take two hours!""Why did you faint inexplicably on the playground that day? It's said that Prince Louis was also present. Do you
This was my first public appearance as Prince Louis's girlfriend.The enthusiasm of the journalists was enough to ignite me. The way they looked at me made me feel like I was a Hollywood superstar standing on the red carpet at a press conference."You look so beautiful today," Prince Louis tightened his grip on my hand and whispered in my ear, "Did you see the amazement in their eyes? Claire, you've exceeded everyone's expectations."Upon hearing his words, I was stunned.At that moment, I finally understood why Prince Louis had arranged for professionals to style me this morning.Perhaps in the eyes of the journalists, I was indeed a true "Cinderella" — breaking up with my almost-engaged boyfriend at a party, deceived by my family, and getting into a fight with my stepsister at the event.In such a sorry state, I had somehow managed to capture Prince Louis's attention.He publicly announced that I was his mate. Anyone who learned about this would consider me a lucky dog. They would u
I turned my head to look at him.The speaker was a handsome man, and he appeared to be a few years older than Prince Louis. Deep-set eyes and jet-black hair gave his appearance a somewhat cold air, yet he was undeniably gorgeous. His sharp green eyes resembled the lake where forest nymphs were said to reside, exuding a mysterious and alluring charm.He was dressed in a dark gray wool coat with a deep blue scarf around his neck, paired with a pitch-black suit underneath.I gazed at him with surprise, wondering how he could wear so much in this weather without feeling hot.Noticing my expression, he chuckled softly, his voice unexpectedly deep and gentle. "Apologies, is it strange? I've had an injury, and I tend to feel cold more easily.""No, I didn't mean that." I quickly clarified.It was only at that moment that I noticed he was holding a wolf-head cane. The style of the wolf head on it was somewhat similar to the wolf head ring Prince Louis wore, but it had two blood-red gemstones
"Back off, stay away from me!"I swatted his hand away from attempting to touch my cheek, my expression filled with disgust.Garfield's movement halted, but he didn't seem angered. Instead, he smiled as if nothing had happened.In a deep, low voice, he said, "I'm really curious, Claire, what kind of enchantment you possess to make him favor you so much? Did you intentionally orchestrate that scene at the party to attract his attention?""If that's the case, I must applaud your wit and audacity. Even Maria couldn't achieve such a feat, to manipulate a prince's affection as if it were in the palm of your hand. Ha," he quirked his lips, and his green eyes, like those of a wolf, glinted with a cruel gleam."I missed out on a good show once, and I certainly won't miss a second one."Listening to his condescending tone, my complexion grew darker with each word."Do you hold a grudge against Prince Louis?" I questioned."No, how could I?" Garfield smiled, wearing a mask of falsehood on his f
I stumbled along behind Louis. It wasn't until we had walked for ten minutes that his anger seemed to dissipate gradually. He slowed down, turning to look at me."Aren't we going back?" I ventured, "The event doesn't seem to be over yet, does it?""Maria can handle the rest of the activities by herself. I've already discussed it with Chris," Prince Louis replied.His brows were still furrowed. He turned to me with a questioning tone, "What were you and Garfield doing down there? Why were you so close to him?"I felt utterly puzzled and slightly hurt, "Well, he was sitting right beside me! He asked me some strange questions, trying to provoke me. How was I supposed to know what he intended? I was just talking to his daughter at that time."After a moment, I muttered under my breath, "I didn't say anything when you participated in the parent-child activities with Maria, and you still ended up suspecting me."Louis coughed. He fell silent for a few seconds, wisely avoiding that topic. "A
I was startled by the sudden appearance of someone behind me and let out a brief yelp of surprise."You scared her," Prince Louis said, somewhat displeased."Sorry," the person replied insincerely, "I didn't know she was this timid."That sounded infuriating. I turned my head back in annoyance, only to be surprised to find that the speaker was actually a teenager. He looked about fifteen, tall and thin, draped in a gray linen cloak. His presence was so unobtrusive that it was almost non-existent."Are you hurt?" I forgot what I had wanted to say earlier and asked him with concern.Because he was wrapped all over with bandages, only two brown eyes peered curiously at me. Although those eyes were vacant and dim, I could still sense his curiosity.It occurred to me that the young man before me was actually blind. But aside from his slightly eccentric appearance, he was no different from a normal boy.Hearing my voice, he tilted his head slightly and "looked" at me, his direction astonish
