It was only then Caroline noticed Elena was also there.
Caroline felt like her breath was caught in her throat as she watched Liam walk toward Elena. The way his expression shifted so seamlessly from cold sternness to quiet warmth made something twist inside her. She didn’t miss the way his shoulders relaxed, how his eyes softened when they met Elena’s. It wasn’t subtle. Not to someone who had loved Liam for so long, even when he did not reciprocate it back.
And yet, she said nothing. She merely turned, heels clicking against the stone path as she walked away with clipped steps, the tightness in her chest growing heavier with every stride.
Elena caught the faint changes in Caroline’s tense emotions but before she can read it well Caroline had walked away.
As Liam reached them, he gave Elena a nod, his eyes searching hers briefly, quietly “You okay?” he ask

And at that moment—without any warnings—the floor trembled.Not violently at first. Just a faint rumble beneath their feet, like the distant roll of thunder from deep within the earth.Forks paused halfway to mouths. Conversations trailed off.Then the tremor grew stronger. Plates rattled. A few goblets tipped and clattered to the floor, shattering. The chandeliers overhead swayed slightly.The room stilled as everyone stood, eyes shifting to each other. A hushed panic crept in—unspoken but shared.Elena’s eyes narrowed, her voice steady despite the sudden tension as she murmured lightly “That wasn’t an earthquake.”But Liam standing next to her heard it clearly “No…That was something else.”With that everyone in the dining room walked out the palace and flew into the say.And then they felt it.It came not as a sound, but as a presence—thick and cloying, brushing across the skin like ash carried on a windless night.

In the private lounge of the palace, every member of Liam’s team had gathered. The room was quiet, lit by the soft glow of wall sconces and the golden shimmer of the chandelier overhead. The tension that had brewed earlier had lessened, replaced now by quiet curiosity.Erick broke the silence first, his voice even “Caroline told us the mission’s been reassigned. Is that true?”Liam, seated on a single armchair, gave a small nod “Yes. It’s true. The mission we’ve been working on has been handed over to another team.”There was a brief murmur, but not the outrage or disappointment he’d braced for.Sophie leaned back in her seat, arms folded but calm “Was it something we did?” she asked gently “Or something else?”Liam looked around at the faces of his team—people who had stood beside him through storms since the day the joined Silver-hands. These people who had never once let him down, he owed them clarity.“It’s nothing we did wrong,” he assu

Return of the Dragon Queen Chapter 145
Later that evening, when Liam and Elena came back to the palace, it was already getting dark.Aragon landed gracefully in the courtyard, his powerful wings stirring a gust of warm wind as he settled.Elena slid down from his back with ease, Liam right behind her. But the moment her boots touched the ground, her eyes caught sight of Sapphire standing near the edge of the stables—arms crossed, lips pressed in a thin line, her foot tapping the ground with practiced impatience.“Oh no,” Elena muttered.Liam followed her gaze, then looked back at her “Should I be worried?”Elena gave a tight smile “No. But you should go inside. I’ll meet you in a bit.”He hesitated for a moment, studying her expression, then gave a nod and walked toward the palace. The moment he was out of sight, Sapphire stormed forward.“You flew with him,” she began, her voice sharp—not with rage, but with the sting of betrayal “On that dragon. Without even telling me.”

Meanwhile back at the palace in Alynthia…Caroline through the sun-dappled halls of the palace with Sophie in toe looking for Liam.“Are you sure he’s not in the training grounds with Oscar or at the stables tending to his dragon?” Sophie asked as they turned another corner.“I already checked twice,” Caroline replied, her brow furrowed.Sophie glanced towards Caroline nervously as hesitated for a few seconds before speaking “Due you think he is with her?”The moment the words left her mouth, the air seemed to shift. Though Sophie hadn’t said a name, Caroline knew exactly who she meant. Her jaw tightened, and the warmth in her features drained, replaced by something far colder.Sophie pressed on, albeit cautiously “You know they have met after such a long time… they might be…”“Enough!” before she could complete her words Caroline stopped her

She smiled, eyes damp with emotion “Thank you… for understanding.”“I don’t just understand, I admire you for it” he said, softly “So tell me Elle what is your condition to accept my marriage proposal. I just want to complete this task fastly and make you mine forever…”Elena laughed softly, her forehead still resting against his, the sound warm and low in the quiet glade “You’re really not one for subtlety, are you?” she teased, brushing her thumb over his cheek.“Not when it comes to you,” Liam replied without missing a beat “I’ve waited long enough. I want to marry you, Elena. I want a future where you are always beside me, waking up in my arms every morning, dragging me into trouble by afternoon, and reminding me who I am by night.”She looked at him then—really looked at him, not just the person she’d fallen for but the man he was becom
