CHAPTER 41ERIC’S POVThe shock that came from what he just revealed swept over me like a strong tidal wave, draining the blood from my face and nearly knocking the air out of my lungs. I didn’t even realize the photo I held had slipped from my hand and fallen to the floor.I stared at him wordlessly, my mouth hanging open. Alpha Nolan murdered? How? Where? When? By who? The whole thing felt like something straight out of a movie, too impossible to believe. Alpha Nolan was the most powerful man in the kingdom. Reaching him, let alone killing him was like trying to strike down a god in his own temple. Not to mention, he had only just left yesterday evening to prepare for the ball he was hosting. It hadn’t even been up to twenty-four hours yet. So how could he suddenly be dead—with Adrianna and me blamed for it? Was he assassinated? Poisoned? Kidnapped and declared dead to cover something up? The entire situation was fishy; reeking of a carefully orchestrated scheme, as if someone had

CHAPTER 43 ADRIANNA’S POV Quickly, I tore my gaze away from the key and continued washing him. He was shrewd and perceptive. With his intense amber eyes raking over my body like a hawk tracking its target, catching every move I make, I was forced to stay calm and oblivious of the necklace’s existence around his neck. I didn’t want him to suspect that the only reason I was doing this was to steal it. But was it? I didn’t even know he had it until now. As much as I wanted that to be the sole reason I was doing this, an inexplicable part of me wanted to stay here with him, live this life with him, run with him, hide with him because from the looks of things now, only him can protect me from the danger looming ahead. Only he can protect me from the cruelty of this world. Anytime my fingers brushed against the right side of his ribs, I noticed he held back a groan. When I saw him shirtless earlier in the morning, that same area was marked with a deep discoloration. That must be the

CHAPTER 45 ADRIANNA’S POV My eyes fluttered open to the gentle glow of the sun pouring through the small window, its golden rays spilling across my face. I brought my hand over my face to shield the invading rays, rubbing my eyes gently and twisting my body till my drowsiness dissipated and my vision adjusted to my surroundings. The softness of the sun's rays and the chirping of the birds outside let me know it was early in the morning, just a little after dawn, I think. I had slept for a really long time, or rather, we had slept for a long time. I adjusted on the bed and a dreamy smile graced my lips as Eric’s image appeared before me. Tucked comfortably beside me, he was still fast asleep. Under the soft glow of the morning rays, he looked more handsome than ever, his rugged features so calm and serene that they felt ethereal. Last night was intense—one minute we were in the bathroom, bathing with me kneeling and deepthroating him. The next minute we were tangled in the she

CHAPTER 47ADRIANNA’S POV“No…” I quivered, trying to crawl away from them but they had me trapped. “Please… let me go… You’ve got it all wrong. I’m not the one in that photo… You’re clearly mistaken me for someone else. I’ve never even been in a photo before…”I tried to explain but it seemed to fall on deaf ears. Kanute crouched beside me and brought his hand forward to show me the picture. “Are you trying to say we’re dumb or what?” He cocked a brow, his tone edged with annoyance. “Or you’ve never seen a mirror in your life before to know what the fuck you look like?”Slowly, without saying a word, I moved my head from side to side in response so as not to provoke him further. Squinting my eyes, I jutted forward to get a clear view of the picture he was holding before me. As I did, my breath caught in my throat, as I saw it was a portrait photo of Eric and me. My gaze floundered in confusion as I stared at him helplessly, struggling to wrap my head around the situation. What was

CHAPTER 49 ERIC’S POV I nearly lost hope, thinking I had lost her forever. Now out of the long hidden pathway that led out of the house, I couldn’t see her. There was no sign of her on the narrow roads, corners, or anywhere. She might have left this part of the kingdom already. The thought of that made panic curl around my spine like a serpent. ‘No…’ I tried to convince myself otherwise, holding onto the hope I knew I didn’t have. She didn’t know her way around this area so navigation will be quite difficult, slowing her down. I can still find her. I know I will. I just hope it’s not too late. It was still early in the morning—too early for the streets to be crowded. That worked in my favor. With fewer eyes around, the risk of someone recognizing me was low. I had left the house in a rush, without a hoodie, cap, or anything to conceal my identity. If anyone had seen that photo of us circulating across the kingdom, recognizing me would be as easy as solving a kid’s puzzle. Adr
