All Chapters of The Kidnapped Bride: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

The fact that Sully had been pregnant knew only a few people. There had been a rumor going around. I questioned Jade Star about it and he was forced to admit it. He said Sully had a miscarriage and that she was not pregnant anymore.Now, he was planning to take revenge on the Silverclaws. I joined him because I also had a debt to settle with them. Alexander Silverclaw took my bride from me on our wedding day.They took the woman from me who I wanted all my life since the moment I saw her.I never wanted much things in my life. But Sully- she was the only thing I truly wanted. I set my eyes on her and knew I had to have her.When I met her, I thought she was the prettiest girl every with brown skin and ruby red eyes and long curly hair. She talked little, but watched everything with curious eyes. I remembered asking my father who that little girl was. When he told me, I knew I needed to have her. I wanted her.But then I heard that she ran away from

My time at the tower was going well. Actually, it was better than I thought. I spent most of my time at the lab, making potions. Demian had gathered so many ingredients that most of the time, I had no problem making a certain potion without checking what ingredients I had first. I always checked though. It had become a habit.One of the first things that they taught you in an alchemy class was that you must always check the ingredients before making a potion to make sure that you had the right amount of ingredients needed for that potion.Alchemy was a fun subject, especially for those who were good at using the correct measure of ingredients and who were good at cooking. I was not good at cooking. I could certainly cook a few dishes now, but back then, I could not cook a single thing. But I was good measuring correctly. I was also patient about it which helped. Something about mixing a few ingredients, sometimes just a drop of some, and then getting a liquid that could do things alwa

“Did you have a sexual relationship with Shea?” I asked when Demian climbed onto the bed beside me after finishing his bath. He had come back a while ago, with blood on his cloak, and took a long cold bath.“No,” Demian answered.“Are you telling the truth?”“Do I lie to you?”“Then, what happened with her? I know something did happen,” I said.“Did she tell you that?”“Just tell me.”“Well, she once tried to seduce me. But I told her not to come to my chamber again and said that if she did, I would get her tongue cut. Nothing happened between us. I never had any sexual relationship with any maid.”“I see.”“You don’t believe me?” he asked.I sat up. “I believe you.”“Now tell me. Did she tell you about it?”I shook my head. “I guessed.”“A guess?” He seemed skeptical.“I had the feeling. She told me that you knew about her secret. That was when I guessed that… And she flees the room right after you come in. That’s why I thought there must be something else. So I asked her about it an

“I thought you would want to know this- it has started,” Demian said.I was still on his lap. He was gently rubbing my back and playing with my hair. My hair was in a braid on my back.He did not need to tell me what he meant by ‘it’. I knew it very well.“You never told me about your plan,” I said. “What’s the point of telling me this now?”“There is not much of a plan. Even if there is, I believe it is best to keep it from you.”“Because like your father, you also believe that I might join my family,” I said with a bitter laugh. “Seriously, Demian? Do I look that fucking shallow to you?”“Sully, you know exactly why I am not telling you anything.”“I don’t know. Pray tell me since I am so oblivious to everything,” I said sarcastically.“It’s because of your brother. You know what I mean, don’t you?”I knew what he meant the moment he said it. I just did not think he would catch up so quickly. Sometimes it felt like he could read my mind.I never told him anything to be suspicious of

I heard about the plan from Selina. We had been sending letters back and forth using ravens.I came back to our kingdom a few days after Sully left. I knew something was going to happen and wanted to be there when it did happen.Selina told me all about what she learned about her father’s plan. After reading her letters, all I could understand was that I needed to be near House Silverclaw and near Sully. Sully would know what to do. She would not sit still now that Kyle was in the plan as well.This was the only chance we would get and we had to use it well. Or else, Maxi’s death would be in vain.I still missed that girl. My friend. We had so little time together, yet I loved her. I missed her. I missed her smile. I missed our adventures. I missed how we fought together. I missed everything about her.After her death, Sully and I held each other up. We had no one to talk to, so we talked to each other. We cried together. We became closer and promised to take revenge on Kyle one day.
