CAMILLE
You...." My face was pale when Vance was done. There was no way something like that would not have some kind of effect on him.
It would definitely leave him weaker, I was sure.
"Why....why would you do that?" I asked, my voice shaking.
"Because a man like Kael doesn't deserve to live well, and death is way too easy for him. This is the perfect punishment for him, and for myself too. I failed...I failed to protect my parents, I failed to protect the pack, and this is what I should suffer for my failure," Vance said firmly.
He did not skip a beat as he said all this, and he obviously believed every single of word of it.
I could not help but shudder at his mindset.
Why was he doing this to himself?
"This....is not about Kael, it was never about Kael only. You are just doing this to yourself. Making yourself suffer for no reason" I whispered.
Vance smirked and lifted my
VANCEStanding outside the room, I couldn't see what Camille and the healer were doing inside. However, I had great trust in her. Since she said that she could help Seraphina, she would definitely do it. Besides, it wasn't as if we had a choice here. Besides letting Camille do her best, the only thing that could be done was to let Seraphina suffer until she died of the poison exhausting her body. No one wanted that. Furthermore, the flower that Camille had asked for had not been found yet It might still be a long way before it could be found, and no one knew if Seraphina would be able to survive till then. "It's been more than two hours. I don't know why she isn't coming out yet. I definitely shouldn't have left my daughter in the hands of that woman It's obvious that she doesn't know what she's doing. What if she hurts my daughter to get revenge?" Seraphina's father was complaining as he paced outside, waiting for Camille to come out too. I glanced at the man in irritation. At
CAMILE There was an uncomfortable silence as everyone's eyes were focused on me. I knew they were trying to process what I had just said, and I didn't rush to say anything else. This was a poison I was familiar with because I had created it, and even if I did want to save Seraphina, they still had to be fast, otherwise, there would be no hope for her very soon. "You're saying ...you're saying that you made this poison?" Vance asked me, shocked. He was looking at me in a whole new light, and I could not help but wonder if he thought of me as just a pretty face before this. I always believed Trevor loved me, but after his betrayal , a lot of things became clear to me. Trevor probably only kept me around for so long because of the things I could do. The reason why I survived by his side was because I used my talents to help him. How many of his enemies had I helped him poison?Back then, I believed the truth and thought that I was helping my husband get rid of people who were after
CAMILE When I opened my eyes, a healer was attending to me but it wasn't the healer I knew. It was a different one, and he looked younger. From the corner of my eyes, I could see a very worried Vance pacing around the room. He looked pale, he obviously had not rested. "I thought you said she was not injured badly as the pin didn't go deep into her, so why isn't she awake yet? It has been an entire night!" Vance snapped at the young healer .The young man shook in Vance's presence, and he was obviously afraid of him. "I don't....I don't know, Alpha, I think there's something wrong with her body, but I don't dare to make a diagnosis. I can only wait for my master" the young healer was shaking as he said this. "You have been by his side for a long time and you still haven't learned anything yet? Then, what the heck are you doing by his side? Go get him!" Vance ordered the poor man. "Alpha, he's currently treating Miss Seraphina and so...." "So what if he's treating her?! Whose lif
VANCE I felt a headache when I heard Seraphina was threatening to kill herself if I did not come to see her. I wanted to refuse, since I had already pardoned her, I never wanted to see her again, but then, Camille had convinced me to go see her one last time.I was startled when I saw her pressing a sharp hairpin to her neck. Had Seraphina lost all her will to leave?!"Seraphina, what do you think you are doing?""Didn't you want to kill me? Can you bear to have me executed without seeing me one last time? Even if....even if you've fallen for someone else now, can you bear to kill me without seeing me one last time? I admit that I left when you needed me the most, but I have done my best for you these past few years. I have supported you, can you really bear to kill me off?" Seraphina asked me, with tears running down her cheeks. "Who said I was going to kill you, Seraphina?" I asked her. "Don't lie to me! We've already come this far! Vance, I love you! What is so great about thi
VANCE"How dare you, Camille? My daughter has been in the dungeon for the past few days, no one knows what she has suffered there, and now you want her to go to the border? Do you think with my daughter gone, you can become Luna?" Seraphina's father pointed a finger at Camille angrily. I took a step towards the older man, wanting to defend Camille from his attacks; however, Camille stood in front of me, directly cutting off my words. "If I really cared about the position of Luna and thought your daughter would try to stop me, I would just wait for the Alpha to execute her. Wouldn't that be easier for me?" Camille sneered at me. "No matter how much the Alpha gives in to you and lets you play around here, you are still not a member of our pack. Don't think that you can walk in here and act arrogantly!"Camille turned to the Elder who had spoken, "I know that I am not a member of this pack; however, I also know who saved my life. I know who I am willing to pledge my allegiance to. I,
VANCE "Alpha, I understand that my daughter was wrong, however, we have been loyal to you since you took over. Even if we haven't done anything worthwhile, our loyalty is definitely worthy of compensation. I am asking that you please let my daughter off. She will never show her face here again, and she will live the rest of her life in seclusion," Seraphina's father tried to convince me to let go of Seraphina. She had come here with the internet to resume the marriage ties between us, and I knew Seraphina was already prepared to be my Luna when she arrived. It was definitely ironic for her and her father that her life was now hanging by a thread, and even though I felt sorry for her, I could not let her off What she had done was indeed terrible, and I could not bring myself to forgive her at all. "Seraphina planned to commit murder, and she even left spies into the castle. Her actions endangered the lives of everyone else, including your lives. Are you telling me that we can just
