Chapter Thirty-one: The Whisper of Bond
As they both sat down after greeting their father and their sister, they sat down to their respective seat. Claude, I mean the Alpha King, sat in the middle while his seat was embellished with gold.
I even saw Storm approaching Casey and stood beside her like he was her royal knight. It was as if they weren't husband and wife after all...
This was all surprising for me.
I mindlessly walked to the stage when it was my turn to be pinning a medal by the Alpha King himself. I tried my best to put up a stoic expression.
There was a twinge of pain again as soon as I was in front of him. When he looked at me, there was his icy stare like he was looking down on me. I suddenly felt so small when he emitted his aura. I took a deep breath and bowed my head.

In the end, even if I wanted to get away from this gathering, I was ordered to come by the Alpha King himself. All the high socialites, nobles, and part of the royal family were all here gathering in the banquet hall.This gathering gave me a dull impression that I couldn't last to stay here. I was in the very corner, hiding from the eyes of the nobles. I am already tired of making social interactions with them. I knew that this was the start but I could have wished General Cairo and General Benedict were also here with me. But they chose not to go here for some reason even though they were invited. Maybe they found this very dull just as I am having a thought right now.If I wasn't ordered to come here, I wouldn't be here in the first place.I silently clicked my tongue, holding a glass of white wine as my eyes swa

"General, please. You can't just stroll around again," Jack, my secretary, said as I was heading out after finishing the tasks he asked me to do."Jack, I don't like staying in one place, alright?" I smiled as he looked so stressed from my action that I was going out."Stop being so lazy!" He huffed and fixed his glasses. He looked like he was about to cry.I chuckled and winced his hair. "Chill, Jack. You'll have wrinkles if you are being so hot-headed to me."He shot me a glare. "Come back here, you lazy General." He held my arm and pulled me back to my desk.I slumped my shoulders and frowned seeing another pile of papers on my desk. "Can't I take a break?" I asked wryly as he gave me papers in front of me.

Even he, too, was shocked from what happened seeing how his eyes widened.I immediately got off from him then I gasped because we came from the second floor and landed on the ground floor. I approached him and helped him to sit up as he was groaning."A-Are you alright, Your Majesty?" I asked, panicking.My heart leaped as his eyes darted on me."Y-Yes." He nodded. "How about you?" he asked and scrutinized me up and down."I-I am alright. Thanks to His Majesty," I said, feeling guilty.We looked at each other. I suddenly felt nostalgic for the way he was looking at me. I felt like I was throwing back to the times when he was still my supervisor with a mischievous expression on his

"There is no need to offer me a chair to sit in, Your Majesty. I am fine just sitting here." I made a turn and sat on the railings. "Why did you summon me, old man?" "Are you trying to jump again at this height?" I snapped my head to Claude. This man was getting on my nerves already. What he was doing right now was making my blood boil. "Why are you so quick to judge, Your Majesty?" I narrowed my eyes on him. Punish me for making eye contact with His Majesty. I just couldn't take this kind of treatment he was giving me. He had liked this ever since the banquet happened before. Although I told him that he would act hostile against me, he needed to act professionally sometimes. But how could I even suggest that? I would get beheaded if I dare to speak what's inside of

"I don't get why you have to come around, Your Majesty," I said as I was already frowning."Claude.""Huh?" I blinked, tilting my head. He didn't answer me so I scrutinized him up and down. "Why are you even dressed like that, Your Majesty?" He was also wearing a very cheap tunic which is the same as mine but it is more ankle-to-floor length. He wasn't wearing some fancy clothing to signify his wealth as the Alpha King.He stopped walking and faced me. "Call me 'Claude', Rachelle. It is just the two of us so you don't need to address me like that."I raised my eyebrow. "You'll go by the name of Claude Hackworth again? Just as you always pretend way back?" I huffed and passed by him.I didn't hear anything from him so I made h
The Beguiled Bond Chapter Thirty-seven: A Big Responsibility
We spent our whole afternoon eating some variety of sweets before we settled on the nearby brook and stayed at the nearest tree. My feet were soaked in the water while lying in the grass.Claude remained standing while his eyes were focused on the bridge that was connected to the next district, the Southside. I wasn't sure what was fascinating about it but maybe he was thinking of a new project for the kingdom.I stared at the sky while raising and waving my hand. Then I clutched something thinking it was a sword bathed with wolfsbane."I want to go to the war," I said out of nowhere. I just want some bloodshed killing some rogues who dare to defy and ruin the order of the kingdom.Especially Magnius Lothim. I am itching to kill him for having my soldiers killed.
The Beguiled Bond Chapter Thirty-eight: The Plaza
We distanced ourselves the moment we arrived at the plaza after the sun was set. We didn't even talk nor speak to each other.How am I supposed to enjoy myself here in the plaza if neither of us is okay right now?I must think of ways to get out of this awkward situation so I could at least enjoy my day off. I don't even know why His Majesty has to follow me here when he could have chosen to leave me here alone.I silently snorted after that.I roamed my eyes around as I saw the lanterns hanging around in the posts with lots of food stalls and some magic shows were set up in the plaza. The place was extravagant and I wanted to stroll around on every corner of this place.I stopped walking when my nostrils smelled something sm
The Beguiled Bond Chapter Thirty-nine: Smell of Jealousy
"Here's your coffee, General Rachelle," Jack said the moment he entered my office. He placed the coffee on my desk and I thanked him for that. "Why did you even drink booze if you can't even handle it?" He shook his head.I massaged my temples after sighing. "I only drank one-fourth," I said and took a sip from the cup. "I felt like my head was pounding and someone was punching on my head." I shook my head. "I think I drank more than one-fourth..."I woke up having an overwhelming headache. I am trying to remember if I went on a rampage after taking a drink at that time. I should have listened to His Majesty that I should drink one-fourth of the mug since I am a first-timer."You are being stupid, General."I pouted. "That's a harsh comment. I'm hurt." I faked a painful
