The food, ready to be served on the large dining table, made them all want to start eating immediately. There was a variety of sumptuous foods, but mostly fresh meat in various preparations.Nadlyn was happy to be in their midst, although she was a little worried that Rachel would be angry with her. She also felt Rachel's piercing gaze on her. "You love Nadlyn as much as you love your own daughter, William?"Nadlyn raised her head when she heard her name mentioned by Elisa. All the others turned their attention to her as well."Yes, that's right. She's like my own daughter." King William smiled sincerely as he looked at Nadlyn, then turned to Rachel who seemed to be looking at him differently, King William had caught her expression and he realised that Rachel was a little jealous. King William smiled as he looked at the others to add something. "Of course, Rachel is my first favourite child, so if I can adopt Nadlyn as my second child, my second daughter, Rachel will be happy because

Dario laid Nadlyn's body on his bed. He looked at Elisa who was trying to treat Nadlyn's wounds."How about we call the Elf Prince to help heal Nadlyn? There's King William here, if he finds out that his favourite son has hurt Nadlyn, it'll be a big problem." Joshua said to provide a middle ground."Can you go to him, Uncle Shua?" Dario said as he pleaded with Joshua."Of course, I will find him and bring him here." Joshua bowed his head respectfully before walking backwards and out of their presence.With Joshua gone, Dario sat with Nadlyn by his side. He saw that Elisa was also looking at Nadlyn. "Rachel is unforgivable," Elisa said as she looked directly at Nadlyn."Are you going to punish her, Mum?" Dario asked, looking curiously at Elisa."Of course, she's gone too far and Damian should punish her too. Damian spoiled her too much, that's why she became so brutal."Dario didn't know what to say, he looked very sad and looked at Nadlyn who was still unconscious. Dario looked at Nad

Nadlyn was quite surprised when Damian walked into her room like an intruder. She stared at Damian warily, not because she was afraid, but the man's gaze was so intense that it frightened her."I just wanted to see how you were doing," he said as he walked over to the water and drank from Nadlyn's glass, Nadlyn rolled her eyes but didn't dare protest.Seeing that Nadlyn was relaxed and not keeping her distance from Damian, the man approached her and sat down on the side of the bed right next to her. Nadlyn immediately kept her distance."Are you that afraid of me?" Damian asked as he turned to face Nadlyn."I was fine.""I'm sorry Rachel took her anger out on you like that." Damian said as he held out his hand, Nadlyn did not want to hold out her hand at first, but she could not ignore it.When Nadlyn had extended her hand Damian immediately pulled her waist so that the two of them could be close, Nadlyn was obviously shocked and almost screamed if Damian didn't shut her up."Shh, don

In the end, Damian let Nadlyn go with Dario. Even though he knew that his heart was against it. But he couldn't show those feelings. He avoided everything and pretended that he didn't need Nadlyn. Just being with Rachel was enough.Dario had loaded all the sailing equipment into the carriage and he told Nadlyn and the Elf Prince to get into the carriage with him. They would ride it to the docks."I feel bad having to ride with you when I can walk with the Elf Prince," Nadlyn said, making Dario smile broadly."No problem, you have to be with me." Dario replied, but Nadlyn could only let out a short sigh."Nadlyn," Dario called again.The woman raised half an eyebrow as she waited for Dario to speak again. "Do you have a place you like and would like to visit?" asked Dario as he looked intently at Nadlyn who was sitting in front of him.Nadlyn, who was asked such a question, blinked her eyes slightly. She didn't know what to say. For her, a favourite place was a place where she felt com

DAMIANIt's only been a few hours since Nadlyn left and I already feel like I miss her terribly. I don't know how this feeling came about, but I've been trying to avoid it and push it away, but it's very difficult.Rachel noticed my anxiety and we had a fight. She didn't trust me anymore because she said I had started to believe in the sire bond. So I said I didn't want to see her for a while. I wanted to give her time to think about things. Although I have a job too. And I heard that she had decided to go hunting with the other packs."What exactly are you not telling me?" Joshua, who was in my room, looked at me sharply."Nothing," I replied firmly as I worked on the paperwork I had to do today."I knew something was wrong. You don't trust me and don't see me as your brother, do you? Even though we've been together a long time," Joshua grumbled as he grabbed the chair in front of me and sat down."What's it like, huh?" I mumbled, my eyes and hands still focused on the work."Come on
