Chapter 44

작가: Laughing Riot
Freya couldn't find a single word to say.

She could even imagine how happy Frederick must have been when he did all those things for his former fiancée—how his smile must have shone upon seeing Selena's satisfied look. Her heart twisted with sorrow and frustration, so heavy it made her want to cry.

But Anna went on, "And then, there was that year—"

"Enough!" Freya bit her lip and turned her face away, her voice hoarse. "Don't say any more."

If she asked Frederick, she could learn the truth.

  • 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

    When Sebastian was returning to his courtyard, he didn't know why, but his steps carried him straight to the courtyard where Lilia was temporarily staying.The little courtyard didn't have a name yet. When she first arrived, she had stayed in Lustre Pavilion. Later, once Lilia's emotions had settled a little, Sebastian had Sally prepare a small courtyard for her to stay in temporarily.Though meant as a temporary arrangement, Sally had made it tidy and comfortable. The courtyard was small but clean and serene, perfect for rest and recovery.Later, Sebastian and Lilia had been officially betrothed. Selena said that even though the princess would move into Lustre Pavilion after the wedding, there was no need to get rid of the temporary residence.If the couple ever had a quarrel, Lilia could always retreat here for a few days. Those few days would give Sebastian a bit of time to coax his wife back into good spirits.As he stood in front of the courtyard, Sebastian's mood was complic

    "So, none of you dare to make a move, is that it?" Frederick tightened his grip on the reins, his gaze cold as it settled on the young woman standing in the center of the circle.Mira's voice cracked as she cried, "Fred, help me!"Frederick suddenly snapped his hand up. The riding whip at his sadd

    "That's not it," Yvette said.The people from the Earl of Greymoor's household felt their indignation flare anew. If it wasn't that, then on what grounds had Aurora been granted the position? It carried no weight or legitimacy at all.But Yvette's next words plunged them into utter despair."His

    Selena pressed her lips together, looking slightly troubled. After a brief hesitation, she spoke in a gentle voice, "Y-yes. As long as you take your medicine faithfully, you'll recover in time, Your Highness."Anyone with eyes could see that her words were meant only to comfort Lilia. But unable to

    "My mistake, I apologize," Selena said.She lowered her gaze, masking her true feelings. When she looked at Nathaniel again, her eyes were devoid of any emotion.She smiled lightly. "I have matters to attend to at my estate. I shall take my leave, Your Highness.""What exactly are you angry about
