|| TERESA LAWRENCEVILLE's POV ||" Love??"Vincenzo's voice snapped me out of my dazed state. I startled a bit, awestruck by his voice. Smiling from ear to ear, I poured the liquor down into his glass. However, my hands and tact were a little clumsy.I dropped the slow poison in his liquor. I had no choice but to follow king Nicolas. I tried to be selfish here. I am the Lycan Queen now. I could bring down Duncan without anyone's help. Vincenzo was always just a pawn for me but my heart felt guilty. Ever since my wolf knew about my plan of betrayal, she stopped responding to me.Duncan didn't try to tell Vincenzo anything. Probably he thought that he would be implicated as well if he tried to tell Vincenzo about Nicolas. I felt another burn in my heart, remembering the hatred in Nicolas's eyes. The twist in my heart felt so bad that I appeared vulnerable from outside.Vincenzo was waiting for me to drink the liquor together. He always came back to me at night no matter how busy he was.

|| TERESA LAWRENCEVILLE's POV ||I felt a sharp-edged blade cutting through my heart. My tears slid down instantly as soon as my mate looked up at me with disappointment. For the very first time, I felt guilty for seeking this revenge. They didn't deserve this from me in where all they sheltered me, was security. Pulling myself up, I tried to explain to Vincenzo through my choked tears," Listen to me...I didn't mean to... please.. listen to me..."I grabbed Vincenzo's arms, hoping that he would believe. However, he jerked my hands off, growling as he stepped backward," STAY AWAY FROM ME!!"My wolf flinched in pain under his harsh command. His tone was cutting my heart too deep. Lucia with her seductive ass ran over to get Vincenzo in front of my eyes. She tried to sugarcoat, using the perfect opportunity to get him between her legs," Your Highness! Calm down! This type of woman doesn't deserve your heartbreak!"I clenched my teeth together in rage. How the fuck she dared to touch

|| TERESA LAWRENCEVILLE's POV ||My body was instantly heated up by his words. It was surreal how fast my body reacted against the proposal. He looked broken from his heart. I wanted to say ' No ' but the sinful desire of tasting him stopped my mind from responding. I wanted to shout at my morality but the forbidden thing was always more beautiful.It was also true that I didn't want him to suffer for me. He was burning and his poor eyes were making it worse. After a moment of hesitation, I opened my mouth, finally replying," ..I..I...agree.. but you must drink the medicine.."Nicolas's eyes lit up instantly, deep lust glazing from those eyes. He drank up the medicine patiently and waited for me to take the initiative. Swallowing hard, I crawled onto the bed, stripping my clothes off one after another.His eyes were hooked on me as he watched me, getting naked with great pleasure. He took off his clothes as well and kept sitting on the bed leisurely. I felt so shy today. It had never

|| TERESA LAWRENCEVILLE's POV ||" LET ME OUT!!!! LET ME!!! BASTARD!!!"" FUCK YOU!!"I screamed from the top of my lungs as soon as I woke up in this cold dungeon. Chains shackled around my whole body. Remembering a few hours back, I encountered Duncan in the woods. Before I had the chance to kill him, I threw something at my face. The following moment, I fell unconscious and discovered myself here in the dungeon.My body was covered in chains. Each time I tried to pull, the chain burnt against my skin. I wondered what Bastard Duncan put in these chains. It hurt like bitch each time I screamed.No one listened to me. Minutes afterwards, a mocking laughter reverberated through the dungeon hall with a familiar silhouette," SCREAM BITCH! I WILL SEE WHO COME TO SAVE YOU TODAY!"Duncan appeared in front of my dungeon, his lips having a victorious smile. He sneered at my state before saying proudly," Did you think that I won't be able to recognize you just because you swapped your little
