Erina has been getting goosebumps every time they mention her resemblance to the dead Remington's only daughter. "Erikson," he handed his hand to Erina. Erina slowly shakes his hand, her brows knitting with confusion."I heard you're the girl who's been chosen by Arden?" He smiled as they started walking back to the venue, which was the big living room."Uhm yes..." Erina said as she glanced at him, looking at his face that resembled King Remington from all angles. "You looked like your father so much..." Erina pointed it out, saying she couldn't help but notice it. Erikson was quite shocked; knowing that his sister used to point out that they both resembled their parents, he couldn't help but think about Arena. "That's..." Someone cleared their throat and suddenly showed up beside Erina. She felt how Arden's familiar calloused hand snaked around her waist as if he were marking his own territory. Erikson's eyes drifted to the hand placement on her waist, and his lips couldn't he
"I've witnessed my sister's attraction for Arden Gunner, who's always hostile when it comes to her. Though I believe that because she's too young—just eighteen—and Arden's too serious, maybe he didn't consider her at first.”Erina was so curious about Arena that she ended up looking at Erikson seriously, her eyes never leaving him. "What’s so great about Arden Gunner?" Erina couldn’t help but ask it out loud, which made Erikson’s lips curl in a smirk. "Well, at least you two have differences even though you look like my sister. She looked up to Arden Gunner, the most respected alpha king in the town. He conquered a lot of territories on his own. He’s smart, which is why my sister is just too fond of him.”Erina couldn’t picture Arena, who looked like her at eighteen, chasing after Arden Gunner, who seems so ruthless and ferociously attractive. Her eyes went to the servants, who were checking the food and, one by one, replacing it. Her brows knitted for a while, a bit curious, but t
Erina noticed how Arden loosened the tie of his fancy coat and took it off, leaving the white dress shirt as he unbuttoned each of the buttons, showing the skin of his chest, making him extremely hot with his disheveled hair as he lazily rested his hand on the open window of the carriage. His eyes wandered outside as he looked at the woods, even though his mind remained on the scene he saw earlier. His jaw clenched when he realized that he couldn’t stop thinking about it. To see Erina smiling at someone else creates a hollow feeling in his stomach, making his brows furrow. Erina can feel the tension between them even though Arden remains silent. He can sense that something is making him angry because she saw how many times his jaw clenched, his expression darkened, and he looked so mad.He’s probably worried for his mother. Knowing that Mrs. Gunner collapsed, he’s probably thinking about vengeance to punish the people behind his mother’s incident. And knowing that my mother easily
Erina already touched him bare during those times when he let her touch his massiveness. But to see it again, she couldn't seem to grasp where she got the confidence to touch it during those days. Knowing that it looked so big and erect, Erina suddenly realized why her fingertips could barely touch each other. Arden went back, hovering over her, taking her dress off her until they were both naked. Arden kissed her back; his other hand teased her entrance once again, separating it as she felt the tip on her entrance, wanting to enter her little by little. Erina knew to herself that it would hurt upon seeing how big it looked, and she doubted if it will fit her. And now that he's slowly pushing himself little by little, the pain has trickled through her body, and she has winced in pain. "Fuck," she cursed breathily. "Yes. I'm going to fuck you," Arden said as he pushed another inch, making Erina's body tremble in a struggle. She can feel him to the core. She felt like the world ho
After what happened between them, she hasn't seen Arden, who's been very busy at the moment. She heard from the servants that he is now talking to the other guards. She went downstairs as she heard their low baritones talking about something."The doctor of the Remington has a finding that there’s a possibility one of the outsiders on that night slipped into the party and purposely poisoned Mrs. Gunner." Erina heard the familiar low voice of Arthur."The Remingtons are suspecting that it’s probably one of the witches. They are well-known for creating dangerous potions and witchcraft. Someone must probably survive on their kind, my Lord," said the other man."They are probably after the Gunners after what happened in the past. Erikson also thinks that what’s happening has something to do with the witches," they continued. "I already sent some of the wolves to sniff out the entire town to find the culprit behind it.""Erikson is suspecting that it has something to do with Aurora Everg
"Seems like he's pissed," Erikson laughed a little while he was maneuvering the horse and seeing how Arden's face darkened while watching them with his crossed arms.Erina glanced at Arden who's been watching them as if he's gonna attack them if they did something that he won't approve of. "He's jealous. I can clearly sense it," Erikson laughed while letting Erina hold on to the rope as she controlled the speed of the horse unconsciously because her mind wandered at Arden's expression."You think so?" Erina asked, intrigued that those emotions are foreign to her, knowing that she haven't experienced how it felt like. "You can clearly see it in his eyes. It's full of signs of being territorial. Imagine if the Remingtons aren't friends with the Gunners. For sure my head has probably flown in the air earlier when he saw me talking to you," Erikson said as he remembered how Arden's face was covered with anger. That cruel King is jealous? Is that even true? Coz I heard earlier he's will
Erina was taken aback by Aurora's speculations. She's thinking that it was Arden Gunner who murdered Arena, his mate? Can he really do that?Well, of course, Erina. He has murdered your entire kind, and there's a big chance he could do it to Arena as well. There's something about it that's tainting her mind and giving her a foreign pain in her chest. She can hardly convince herself that Arden murdered Arena as if she were holding on to something to give him the benefit of the doubt, even though a part of her is already embracing the half-truth as told by her mother."You were called by the King, Miss," the servant said after she took a shower. She's been staring into the air for how many hours while thinking about her talk with her mother? She even forgot to mention that something has already happened between him and Arden—that maybe one of these days she's going to bear his child already. She cleared her throat, stood up, and faced the mirror to fix herself. While looking at her
The pleasure still lingered in Erina after their vigorous sex, and she can still feel her legs shaking a bit. She was so satisfied, and yet she could still feel how sensitive her body was while she was already lying by his side.Goddammit, Erina. You can enjoy the sex part, but don't get so carried away that you are craving more! This lust might blind you from your true mission!She's turning her back on him, and she doesn't want to face him. But then, her body chills when she feels his kiss on her shoulder, his hand pulling her body against him until she's pinned on his massiveness.She shut her eyes when she felt the hardness on her buttocks. His calloused hand is caressing the sides of her body while his lips are taunting her shoulder with kisses."I will let it slip. But always remember that I don't have a lot of patience, Erina," he whispered raspily.She can feel her body reacting to his words, which made her shudder."Alright," she said in almost a whisper, letting him dominate
