LOGINThe longer Clarissa and Seraphina stayed at the Laurent mansion, the more distant Violetta’s relationship with her father became. The two of them continued to provoke Mr. Laurent into hating Violetta.
That evening, Mr. Laurent asked all the members of his family to gather in the main hall, saying that he had something important to discuss.
Once everyone had gathered, Mr. Laurent began to speak.
“For the sake of the Laurent family business, I wish to arrange a marriage between one of my daughters and an Alpha from the Veyron family.”
Seraphina’s eyes widened. Her lips trembled as she feared that her father would single her out. She knew all too well what the Alphas from the Veyron family were like. It was an open secret that the Veyron family was notorious for its cruelty. Besides, Seraphina already had someone she intended to spend her life with.
“Seraphina. Are you willing to marry a son of the Veyron family?”
“F-Father. I’m older than Violetta, but why do I have to—”
Before Seraphina could refuse, Clarissa stepped closer and gripped her wrist, signaling her daughter to be quiet. Then she looked at her husband.
“Of course Seraphina is willing. Isn’t that right, dear?” The woman smiled, silently urging her daughter to agree to Mr. Laurent’s request.
“But, Mom...” Seraphina whispered. Yet she reluctantly nodded, agreeing to Mr. Laurent’s request.
After the meeting ended, Clarissa dragged her daughter into the bedroom. They began plotting something terrible.
“Mom, have you lost your mind?! Why do you want to throw me to the wolves, huh?” Seraphina snapped.
“Shh... Calm down. We have to be nice in front of your stepfather.”
“Do you have a plan, Mom?”
“Of course.” The woman smiled wickedly.
The next day, Seraphina kidnapped Violetta. She took the girl to an empty house on the edge of the forest.
“Seraphina! What are you doing?!” Violetta screamed, trying to break free from the grip of two strange men who were holding her arms.
Seraphina laughed wickedly. “To destroy you, of course! I hate always being treated as second best by Dad. I want to be the only daughter in the Laurent family!”
Seraphina took out a vial of liquid. Then she forced Violetta to drink it.
“Ugh!” Violetta tried to resist, but her mouth was forced open, and the liquid slowly flowed down her throat. “What kind of liquid are you giving me, Seraphina?!”
“Just an aphrodisiac. Aren’t you having trouble releasing pheromones? That’s why I’m helping you—so lots of Alphas will catch the scent of your body!” Seraphina laughed heartily.
Then she left, leaving Violetta alone.
A few minutes later, Violetta’s body began to feel hot. Cold sweat poured down her face.
“What’s happening to me?” Violetta tried to get out and find help.
In the distance, she saw several shabbily dressed men approaching, following the pheromones wafting from her body.
“I never expected to find such a beautiful Omega here,” one of them whispered.
“No! Don’t come any closer!” Violetta tried to run with all her might. Not knowing which way to go, she ran deep into the forest, not caring that branches and rocks were scraping against her legs.
“Someone, please help me!” she screamed.
The two men continued chasing after her. Violetta was completely exhausted. Through the mist, she caught a glimpse of a building in the middle of the forest.
“Am I hallucinating? How could there be a large building in the middle of the forest?”
But Violetta didn’t care. She tried to bang on the building’s door.
“Help! Anyone inside, please help me!”
The door opened, and a burly man stood tall in the doorway. His eyes glowed red.
“Sir, please help me! Some bad guys are chasing me,” Violetta pleaded.
The man took a deep sniff of the sweet scent wafting from the girl’s body. His breathing grew heavier. He hadn’t even finished inhaling Violetta’s scent when the two men arrived.
Immediately, a fierce battle erupted between the stranger and the two men.
The two men eventually fled.
“Thank you for helping me. I have to go.”
“Who told you to go, hm?” The man’s growl sent shivers down Violetta’s spine.
“Sir... please set me free.”
Without answering, the man led Violetta inside his enormous mansion.
Meanwhile, at the Veyron mansion, Violetta looked utterly terrified. Her eyes kept darting around the magnificent building that had now become her place of residence. She tried to find a loophole, a door, or anything that might help her escape. However, her hopes dwindled when she realized just how heavily guarded the mansion was. Guards stood at almost every corner, while Lucian was always nearby, as if he could read her every intention.“Where are you taking me?” Violetta asked as they walked.Lucian didn't even turn his head. “To our bridal chamber.”Violetta immediately stopped walking.“What?”“Are you deaf?”“B-but we're not officially married yet!” she protested nervously. “Why are you taking me to the bridal chamber?”Lucian finally turned to look at her. His cold gaze made Violetta instinctively lower her head.“What's wrong with that?” he asked indifferently. “Sooner or later, you'll become my wife anyway.”“But—”“No buts.”Violetta bit her lower lip. “You didn't even ask w
Seraphina ran into the living room, panting heavily. However, her exhaustion did nothing to diminish the wide smile on her face. Her eyes sparkled with triumph, as if she had finally obtained something she had always wanted.“Mother!!” she exclaimed loudly.Clarissa, who was sitting on the sofa with her husband, immediately turned around. The moment she saw her daughter, she rose to her feet. The worry that had been gnawing at her for hours gradually faded, replaced by relief.“Seraphina!” she called. “Oh, God, darling, you're finally back!”Clarissa approached her daughter, then held both her shoulders and carefully examined her face.“Where have you been, huh? I've been waiting for you all this time. Do you have any idea how worried I was when you didn't come home?”Seraphina giggled softly. “Mother, why do you look as if you've just lost something precious?”“Don't joke around, Seraphina. I'm serious!” Clarissa pinched her daughter's arm lightly. “You left without telling anyone. I
The following night, Dante was already waiting at the place they had agreed on—a secluded spot not far from the Laurent Mansion. That night was supposed to mark the beginning of Violetta’s escape.However, unbeknownst to them, the Veyron family was also on their way to the Laurent Mansion. Lucian was coming to pick up his bride-to-be.Inside the mansion, Violetta quietly made her way down the hallway. She was dressed simply and carried a small bag she had prepared beforehand.“There’s no time left. I have to leave as soon as possible.” Violetta glanced left and right. “I just hope no one sees me…”She had barely taken a few steps when a woman’s voice came from behind her.“Where are you going, hm?”Violetta froze. Slowly, she turned toward the source of the voice.“Seraphina?”Seraphina stood several feet behind her, a triumphant smile spreading across her face.“Trying to run away?”“What are you doing here?”“I should be the one asking you that. Where do you think you’re going witho
Dante pulled Violetta into his arms, pleading with Mr. Laurent to forgive his daughter."Sir, please let Violetta explain what really happened." Dante pleaded, his eyes fixed on Violetta's tear-streaked face.Violetta slowly shook her head. "There's nothing to explain, Dante. It's all true. I'm tainted. I'm no longer worthy of being a daughter of the Laurent family." She sobbed.The corners of Seraphina's lips curled into a smug smile."Dante, you heard her yourself, didn't you? Violetta has admitted her mistake!" she snapped, clearly pleased with herself.Seraphina then turned and approached Mr. Laurent. "Father, Violetta has disgraced the Laurent family. Why don't you let her take my place and marry into the Veyron family?"Dante froze in shock."Marry?" he murmured in disbelief.Mr. Laurent nodded in agreement. After all, Violetta had already tarnished the Laurent family's reputation. Getting rid of her would be the best solution."Sir, what are you saying? You want to marry your d
“Let me go!!” Violetta screamed. She had already run out of strength. Even crying was useless now.This strange man was just like the criminal earlier.“You’ve already entered my lair. Don’t expect to be able to leave just like that,” the man growled.Violetta froze. She stared at the change in the man’s eyes before her. He was an Alpha in rut. This was dangerous. Violetta had to get out of this place.But it was too late. The man pushed Violetta’s weak body onto his large bed. The Alpha’s strong pheromone scent seemed to lock Violetta’s body in place.“Usually, I can’t smell the scent of an Alpha’s pheromones. But now... why can I smell this man’s pheromones?” Violetta wondered silently.The girl could only surrender without putting up a fight, allowing the Alpha to act on his rut with her.Until morning came.Violetta opened her eyes. She remembered everything that had happened that night. Suddenly, she quickly turned her head to the side.A strange man was sleeping soundly there. V
