Provoking a Graceful Bloom Chapter 590
Tears welled in Freya's eyes. She knew Frederick wouldn't spare her even a glance again, and her heart went cold as she passed him. William walked beside her, ready to escort her away.Suddenly, a flash of silver cut through the air. William sensed it at once, but it was already too late. The hidden weapon was aimed at Frederick."Your Highness, look out!" William shouted.The prince's mind was tangled with too many thoughts. Whether it was rage or distraction, he failed to notice the danger at first. By the time he sensed something amiss, the weapon was already dangerously close."Your Highness!"William couldn't strike it down in time. He turned and lunged toward Frederick, intending to shield him with his own body.But someone else moved even faster."Fred!"Freya's cry had barely left her lips when she was already in front of him. With a sickening thud, the hidden weapon struck her squarely in the back, sinking deep."Guards! Protect the prince!" William barked.The guard

"I know her secret. The one she truly loves is the Obsidian Monarch. Back then, she even meant to go and seduce him. But he refused to see her, so she never had the chance," Freya said.When she saw the change in Frederick's face, she knew she had struck at what he hated most."Fred, I'm not trying to slander her behind her back. I'm only afraid you're being deceived. It doesn't matter if what lies between you is only a bargain or something more. If her heart belongs to the Obsidian Monarch, then no matter what happens in the future, she will betray you at any time and follow him without hesitation.""Nonsense!" Frederick glared at her. "Because I don't want you, you now mean to stand in the way of me and any woman I choose?"Freya bit her lip. She knew that no matter what else she said, he wouldn't even look at her the way he used to.At last, she carefully drew a letter from her sleeve and stepped toward him. "Fred, this is something I obtained from Mira before she left Hawthorn

The woman in the room was Freya.Frederick had once ordered her thrown into the dungeon, though that punishment had been born of anger more than anything else. He wasn't a particularly kind man, but had always been too soft-hearted for his own good.When word reached him that Freya had fallen gravely ill only a few days later, he relented. He released her and confined her to a small courtyard instead. He never expected that on the very eve of his wedding to Mira, Freya would secretly slip out and hide herself in his bedchamber.In truth, Frederick hadn't seen her in a long while. More than two months had passed. Seeing her now, he almost failed to recognize her.She was painfully thin and utterly worn down. She should have been in the bloom of her youth, yet looked like a woman twice her age. Her once passable face was lined with fine wrinkles, dulled by exhaustion and despair."Fred."Freya's voice was hoarse. They hadn't seen each other for a long time, and the moment they met

Cloud assumed that once Nathaniel found Oliver, the night would end in flying fists and chaos. But though he lingered outside for quite some time and watched in secret, he heard nothing at all.The physician's tonic for bruises was finally ready. Though Cloud was reluctant in every way, he forced himself to carry it to Nova Pavilion for Nathaniel's sake. To his utter surprise, the brothers weren't sparring in the rear courtyard at all. They were in a room with their heads bent together, fussing over something he couldn't quite see.Cloud paused outside the door and listened. Soon enough, their voices drifted out."She's a witch, so she must like bold colors like deep purples and bright reds. I think this shade's quite good.""She's not a witch. Remember to address her properly in the future. Also, you're not to upset her.""Even if she'll be my sister-in-law, she's still a witch... Alright, fine. I'll address her properly."Oliver's reluctance was plain enough that even Cloud cou

Tomorrow would be the wedding day for three couples. Tonight was bound to be a sleepless one.And it wasn't only those at Blackmoor Estate who lay awake. Liam and Cloud were wide-eyed too, for a far crueler reason. In the dead of night, Nathaniel had dragged them straight out of their warm beds to practice combat.It was a horror beyond words, dreadful enough to make a man give up on life itself. Why were they forced to train in the middle of the night during the dead of winter?And the worst part was Nathaniel only seemed to grow more energized with each strike. Every punch landed solidly, hitting Cloud and Liam so hard that one howled in pain while the other gritted his teeth, barely holding back groans from what felt like internal injuries.Seeing a fist flying straight toward his face, Cloud finally screamed, "Your Highness, not my face! I must accompany you to pick up your bride tomorrow—"The punch never struck his face, landing squarely on his shoulder instead. He rolled ac
