All Chapters of Sold To A Cursed Lycan Prince : Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

For one brief moment, the corner of his mouth almost moved again.Almost.Then he walked past her toward the chamber doors.“The messenger waits.”Aeryl spun toward him immediately.“You cannot just leave after saying THAT. Tell me what's going on between the both of us.”“I have no words for now.”“That is such an evil thing to say.”“That,” Aramisius replied without looking back, “is accurate.”And before she could continue yelling at him, he left the chamber entirely. Leaving Aeryl standing alone in the room, staring after him and completely furious.And unfortunately.... more curious about him than ever before.****The courtroom doors opened heavily and every voice in the hall immediately died.Aramisius entered without hurry but somehow that was even more scarier. The long black furry coat hanging from his shoulders swept behind him as he walked down the center of the hall, boots striking against stone in quiet, consistent rhythm.Nobody missed the atmosphere surrounding him to

“It’s better to stay in the cage. Not everyone gets the chance to fly out and live.”Aeryl stilled.For the first time since she met him, he sounded tired in the middle of words that were absolute threats.The silence between them stretched quietly after his words. The fire crackled softly.Outside, distant wind brushed against the tall palace windows.Aramisius remained crouched beside the bed for a moment longer before finally speaking.“You misunderstand something, Aeryl.”Her eyes lifted toward him slowly.“As far as the world is concerned.…” his voice lowered slightly, “I am not your friend.”The words landed colder than she expected. Aeryl swallowed faintly. Aramisius rose to his feet again.“You have every right to run from me. I kill people.”That surprised her.But before she could speak....“However,” he continued calmly, “the circumstances surrounding you make the circumference in which you can safely run…. very small.”Aeryl stared at him quietly.“That is not freedom,” sh

Senora’s eyes widened. And that was enough.mAeryl stepped back instantly. Way too fast, infact.The edge of her gown caught beneath her heel and her balance shook violently. Her hand slammed against the cold wall to steady herself. Then she slipped and fell out of hiding. Santos’ head snapped upward immediately.For one horrible second, his eyes locked onto hers through the dim corridor.mEverything froze.Then, he spoke kindly, flashing her that usual smile. “Princess.”His voice cracked through the silence sharply. Aeryl’s heart nearly stopped.She turned instantly and hurried away. Not running because running would draw attention.But her steps came too fast anyway, uneven against the palace floors as panic climbed into her throat.Behind her, she heard movement.mOr maybe imagined it. She didn’t look back. She refused to look back when she ached to.The corridors suddenly felt endless. Too many turns. Too many shadows.Aeryl pressed a trembling hand against her chest as she moved

People turned.“MY LORD AND KING!”The laughter became hysterical. Others joined him suddenly. Very suddenly.“OUR KING!”“OUR LORD!”Several slaves dropped to their knees laughing and crying at once.Vinncero’s stomach dropped. The crowd changed violently.... Then panic erupted.People began fighting viciously for bread. Not hungry fighting anymore. Animal fighting.Rhea screamed as people shoved against her. Children cried out in pain. Someone fell. Another person climbed over them immediately.Vinncero saw a woman getting crushed beneath feet. He saw children screaming.Then suddenly, massive gates opened nearby.... And thousands of more slaves poured inward, starving, desperate and wild-eyed at the sight of food.The stampede became monstrous instantly.“MOVE!” guards screamed uselessly.Vinncero’s heart slammed violently. He turned instantly toward Rhea.“Give me the bread!”Rhea stared at him in horror.“What?!”“NOW!”She shoved the loaves toward him shakily. Vinncero grabbed t

“Where else would she meet me?”The servant swallowed hard and bowed low.“Of course, my lord.”Aramisius continued walking without another word. And somewhere deep inside the palace, Aeryl still had no idea that in a few moments, her journey toward Elyria would truly begin.********The chamber felt quieter than usual but it was not peaceful. Iwas just heavy with the knowledge that everyone would soon separate for a serious course.Candles burned softly against the walls while travel maps and folded letters rested across the table nearby.Seth stood near the center of the room fastening the dark gloves around his hands as Ariana watched him silently.Lilah sat beside her mother, unusually quiet than usual.And Aeryl? Aeryl stood closest to her father, trying very hard not to feel like the world kept moving faster than she could keep up with.Seth finally looked toward them fully and exhaled.“Well,” he said gently, “I suppose this is the part where everyone pretends not to worry.”
