“The Alpha said he wants to meet you.” Those were the words that made Elle anxious which was delivered by Terry. As she followed him at the hallway, she gets more nervous as they approached Ruan’s office. He usually never calls her there even when she was a child. Back then, he always separates his work with his personal matters. And her being involved in his rule is something that never happened. Why was he asking her to his office now? Did he know something about her being a spy of the Dorumn Kingdom? The thought made her shiver. And this didn’t escape Terry’s observant eyes. “Are you alright?” he asked, surprising Elle. Was her nervousness that obvious? Beaming him a wide smile, she replied. “Yes. I’m alright. I just skipped lunch so I was a bit hungry.” “Then you should eat something later.” “Thank you.” They both stopped at a red-painted door. “You should go in,” Terry said and she nodded. Inhaling

Ruan and Kaliyah was riding a horse as they went to see the possible sites of their wedding. There were famous gardens, temples, fields and other beautiful places in the kingdom. However, none of those really caught her interest. They were all beautiful but something’s amiss for her. Nothing sparked within her. “Are you tired now?” she heard Ruan asking beside her as they walked through the streets. Since they didn’t want to catch attention, Ruan was wearing a cape right now. And although she hasn’t seen any palace guards in the entire day, she knew they were just following them secretly. Like what she learned from Ruan before. Of course. They wouldn’t risk their alpha’s life. She shook her head, her gaze passing through him. They still caught attention despite being secretive thanks to her alluring looks that doesn’t fail to turn heads. And it had been a problem Ruan had been enduring for hours already. He wanted to dig those eyes out for dari

Ruan was staring at the woman lying on top of him. Her alluring face was side-lying on his chest, falling and rising along his breath. And from the dark-circles under her eyes and the traces of sweat, he knew she was too tired. Watching her sleep so comfortably by his side, he still couldn’t believe how come this beautiful woman was his. For a person like him who had been engulfed with darkness all through his life, Kaliyah was the dawn of his night. She was the moon. She was his light. Strands of her wavy hair fell down to her face, and Ruan grunted in annoyance. He hates that it was blocking his sight from a beautiful view. As gentle as he could, his rough callused fingers moved to tuck it beneath her ear. Yet, Kaliyah slowly moved, signaling she’s awake. “You know, Ruan, I’m starting to not like her.” those were the words that she said the moment she opened her eyes. “Who?” he asked, his tone was gentle. “Elle.” Kaliyah dared to tell that

“Oh god! Ruan!” Kaliyah bit her lip to stop herself from crying. She brushed her thumbed on Ruan’s cheek, wiping the tears that almost fell down. Did Ruan almost cried? His eyes when he was begging to her while ago were blood-shot, as if someone who’s barely stopping himself from bawling. And even now as he looked at her, his eyes were still shaking with sparks of tears. “You really didn’t plan to jump?” he asked, his voice cracking as he spoke. Kaliyah cupped his other cheek as she nods. “I didn’t. I was waiting for you here. I thought you won’t come tonight.” Ruan gritted his teeth. Being frightened like that was something he never experienced before. Even when he was about to lose his life before, he never felt so scared than when he thought Kaliyah was about to commit suicide. Why did he even think of that? “F*ck.” He cursed, leaning towards Kaliyah, snaking his arms on the curved of her waist. Kaliyah gasped as she was forced to a

“The life in your womb is just two weeks old. So, you must be careful at all times.” “So, I am really pregnant…” Kaliyah muttered to herself. However, it was audible enough for Ruan and the doctor to hear it. “You mean, you aren’t sure you are pregnant when you told me about it?” Ruan asked, stepping forward to sit beside her. However, even before he could take one single step, Kaliyah glared at him. She was warning him! “No, because I just only dreamed about it before. Then the Lover’s Poison Grass incident happen-” Realizing she just revealed something big that occurred in the palace to an outsider, her eyes widened as she looked at the doctor. However, Ruan was quick to calm her. “Don’t fret. He’s trusted.” She sighed in relief. “I hear nothing, Luna. But I am more interested in your dreams,”: the doctor spoke, his eyes were filled with wonder and curiosity as he eyed her. Yet, even Kaliyah cannot explain it. That was a week before
