"Please don't say ... Alpha named Novaire doesn't exist in this world?" The answer they gave was a pair of headshakes. Their expressions couldn't deceive me. They were truly being honest. That they had never known a man named Novaire all this time. Or more accurately, an Alpha named Novaire had never existed in this world. At that moment, I slowly lowered my gaze. The path of my sight stopped at my trembling hands. Not because they were weak. But because these hands were the only witness that I had ever gripped Novaire's hand before I passed out. I could still vividly feel the pain of his power that slammed me into the wall. 'Novaire... Has he vanished from the face of the earth? What happened? I clearly remember us arguing before I passed out—' Wait a minute. "Cassian. What day and date is it now?" My fiancé was startled by the change in tone and the topic I brought up. We hadn't finished discussing Novaire's whereabouts, and I was already asking about something else. Nevert

"So you're saying ... My baby is going to die soon?"Veronica seemed to understand the change in my emotions, like a grieving mother about to lose her child. She then made the imaginary screen disappear from my view. Turning around, she approached me, lying helplessly on the bed."Darling, why didn't you tell Cassian about the baby?" Veronica gently stroked my long hair. Here, I could feel her overwhelming love, just through her touch."I ... I don't know," that was the only answer I could give. "From the beginning, my relationship with Cassian was merely an agreement. The presence of this baby is something unwanted. I doubt Cassian would be happy to hear about it."For a moment, Veronica tried hard to restore my mental state with a hug. Initially, I felt a sense of shock and rejection. It was the first embrace I received in my entire life.Nevertheless, it only took half a minute before I felt my vision starting to blur. I forgot when my body started shaking, and when I began leaning

"Do you want to introduce me or not?" I challenged him with a sharp gaze.He should have felt offended. But what I saw was the opposite. He became more tempted by my face and clung to me more fiercely."Alright, darling. Let's go to that table. I'll introduce you as the most beautiful Omega in this bar."The two of us then walked amidst the crowd. Just by being by his side, I had already become the center of attention in this place.The Alpha walking with me was later known as Joseph, one of the loyal patrons of this bar. I was lucky because, with Joseph's presence, I could easily attract the attention of other Alphas."Wow, Joseph. Which Omega did you bring this time?"The first greetings awaited us as we reached the fullest table in the place. Joseph led me to a group of Alphas who, in my opinion, was the wealthiest Alphas there.The table they occupied was filled with dozens of high-quality alcoholic bottles. And for every Alpha, there were three accompanying Omegas. They were trul

If not for the mission, I might have slapped Nathaniel's handsome face until he fell off his horse. Or I could have used my powers to throw him into space.‘He thinks that with money, he can automatically make me surrender to him? How funny. Turns out, that's the nature of the Alpha aristocrats these days.’"If Lord Nathaniel intends to take me on a date, you don't have to pay." Instead of refusing, I used this opportunity to charm him and take him to a secluded place.Even if I have to endure disgust because of this handsome Alpha indulging his desires on me, what matters most is that the final mission must proceed.If I can hypnotize Nathaniel, the most popular Alpha in this city, maybe I can track down the culprit behind the virus outbreak much easier.______________________[End of Seraphine's POV]"Your Highness, Prince Cassian. Your room is ready."It wasn't easy to get a decent bedroom, amidst Cassian's efforts to hide his true identity in this city.At two in the morning, the

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"Who would have thought it would turn out like this?The small incident that happened between Nathaniel and me in the hotel room earlier ended up being quite horrifying.Thanks to my pregnancy, I found it difficult to move. My pace wasn't as fast as before, and I could only wander around in this dark forest, unable to find a way out.But the worst part wasn't just that. Nathaniel, who was angry with me, sent his army to chase after me on horseback.Naturally, I was in a state of sheer panic. A pregnant woman being chased by armed horsemen would certainly be at a disadvantage."Hey, you! Don't run! Our Lord wants to talk to you!" They shouted behind me, relentlessly pursuing me.Damn it. I was starting to get exhausted from running like this. My stomach was also starting to ache, and I was afraid I would faint suddenly if I forced myself to keep running.‘And why did my powers suddenly disappear like this!? If I could have hypnotized Nathaniel earlier, none
