All Chapters of Betrothed to the devil himself : Chapter 61 - Chapter 65

The night was heavy with joy, the air sweet with the scent of roses and warm wine. The palace glimmered under a thousand golden lights as music flowed softly through the grand hall. Every noble, every royal guest from the Beast Kingdom watched in admiration, their eyes on the young prince who stood tall, his heart trembling with both pride and love.Lucien took a deep breath and turned toward Lyra.She stood before him in a flowing gown of soft ivory silk, the candlelight wrapping her like a halo. The entire hall seemed to vanish around them — it was as if only two souls existed in the universe.He reached into his pocket and brought out a small velvet box. As he opened it, the faint sparkle of a diamond ring caught the light.Lyra gasped, her eyes wide and glistening.Lucien’s voice trembled as he spoke, “Lyra… from the moment I saw you in the woods, I knew the gods carved your name into my soul.

No whispers of dark magic in the air.For the first time in decades, the kingdom of Songhai woke to sunlight that wasn’t dimmed by shadow. The rivers ran clear again, the forests breathed freely, and even the wind carried warmth instead of warning.People whispered that when the prince and his sister died, they didn’t just end a curse—they healed the land itself. The prophecy had always spoken of “two born of one blood, whose death would seal the world anew.” But no one had understood it until now.Crops began to bloom twice as large.
