Chapter 40Until now, my cheeks are still red from what Damon did. He kissed me in front of so many people! I know he already did that when we were married but his kiss was different from now because we didn't feel anything for each other before...now I can feel my heart trembling.Many people saw that, so Damon quickly pulled me out of that place and stopped at a jewelry stall still here in the small market. When I turned to Damon, he was already grinning at me. He likes what he did. I can see the sparkle in his eyes. I rolled my eyes at him.I didn't know that he had the courage to do that. I never imagine him doing that because he's used to doing things with elegance. And what he did earlier was not elegant at all. But why is my heart like this now? It's beating so happily."W-What if someone saw us earlier? You're so careless, Damon!” I said to him angrily. He raised an eyebrow at me. My cheeks reddened because of his looks that almost penetrated my soul."Don't worry they didn't

Chapter 42I closed my eyes tightly. I accepted his violent jabs at me. My nails dig into his back as his pace speeds up. I could hear his violent moans as he continued to thrust into me. My lips parted because of the mixture of desire and pain I felt under Damon.It was different from our previous sex. I did not expect the strength and speed that he is showing tonight. I feel every pain. He's not stopping himself. I feel like he is deaf to all my moans and grunts. He's not himself anymore.But I let him. I let him claim me the way he wanted. I wanted this. I wanted to see all of him. I know I may not be able to accept every pain. I know I'm going to get hurt but I don't want myself to fail Damon. I want him to be satisfied with me. I don't want him to restrain himself from me. I want him to be true to me.I closed my eyes tightly when I felt the tightness and roughness of every caress and touch of his hand on me. Gone the pleasure and lust it was replaced by pain and tears. Every bre

Chapter 44I was restless as Damon slept soundly next to me. It was late at night, but my mind was still wandering to the book I found on the shelves. Hopefully, it won't go away. But I made sure that it was hidden well so I'm sure no one will see it unless I look for it.I turned to Damon who was fast asleep. I smiled when I felt his warm embrace me. His face is pressed against my neck while his arms are embracing my body. We're both naked under the thick blanket because Damon won't be satisfied in just one round in the library. My cheeks warmed up as I remembered what happened in the library.I sighed heavily as I watched his peaceful and handsome face. I promise you Damon that I will help find the traitor in this palace. All you have to do is find Jules, I'll take care of finding the traitor. I promise you that, Damon. I kissed his lips softly. I smiled because I felt his lips chasing mine. Even if you're still sleeping. I just shook my head.The next day, Damon was punctual in his

Chapter 46Even though I tried to stop myself from being hurt, my heart still ached shamelessly at the possibilities that could happen to Damon. I woke up early the next day to visit Damon, but the doctor told me that Damon also left early with Stone to continue the search for Jules.I couldn't help but be annoyed and sullen with Damon. Doesn't he even care about his health? He's still injured because of what happened yesterday but then he doesn't have a second thought to rush in today? I know he's strong, he's great and powerful but even the powerful and strong creatures have their weakness. And I can't just stand and watch him being desperate for finding Jules.I know he has been hoping for a long time to get revenge on whoever killed his brother, but what if the prize of this all is his life instead? Isn't he afraid? I remember what we talked about yesterday. I asked him to promise me that he will prioritize his life over everything, but he cannot promise me. That's why I realized

Chapter 48The next day Damon did not leave the palace. Instead, he locked himself in his office with the two old men in the group of elders while the group of hunters with Stone began to trace Jules' scent.It seems that Damon's mind is now focused on finding the traitor because I know he thinks that they won't be able to find Jules as long as Jules has a connection inside the palace. Damon will fail if the enemy knows his every move, so he needs to find the traitor that Jules is referring to as soon as possible.While I was still looking for time to enter Neticia's room. There is only one thing I wonder about in Neticia's room. I know it's been a hundred years since Neticia and Alpha Devon died but Neticia's room remains alive inside the palace. I didn't want to think too much about it, but I couldn't help it.That's why while Anna and I were outside and walking in the flower garden behind the palace, I couldn't stop asking."I…saw Neticia's room," I began. I turned to Anna and saw
