Semua Bab Curvy Queen by Contract - Luna by Fate: Bab 81 - Bab 90

SCARLETT’S POV“Don't send anyone to Silverclaw yet,” I said firmly, keeping my eyes on the intelligence report spread across the table. “If Elaine's pregnancy timeline is wrong, I want to know exactly where the mistake is before we accuse her. We've been hurt by assumptions before, and I'm not willing to repeat that mistake simply because the truth would be convenient.”Jordan studied my face from across the room. “I agree that we shouldn't act on suspicion,” he replied calmly, folding his arms as he considered the report. “But you also need to be honest with yourself, Scarlett. This concerns Elaine, and after everything she did to you, I don't want revenge convincing you that every suspicious detail is proof.”I closed the report slowly and looked at him. “I'm not pretending I don't have feelings about what she did,” I admitted, keeping my voice steady. “She lied about me and helped destroy my life, but I don't want revenge anymore. If she's lying about this pregnancy, I want the tr

SCARLETT’S POV“Are you certain the same servant disguise was used every time?” I asked, keeping my voice low as I studied the reports spread across my desk. “I don't want us assuming that the person who entered the dungeon with Elaine was the same person simply because the clothing looked similar. If we're going to uncover this person, we need facts strong enough to prove their identity.”The intelligence officer placed several sketches beside the reports before answering carefully, “The disguise changed slightly on different occasions, Your Majesty, but the important details remained the same. The person always wore a dark cloak, kept their face covered, and used restricted passages that ordinary servants would never have a reason to enter.”I picked up one of the sketches and examined it closely. Whoever was using the disguise clearly understood the palace better than an ordinary servant should. They knew where the guards stood, which corridors were monitored, and where they could

SCARLETT’S POV“Are you telling me Rowan already knows?” I asked, staring at the scout as he stood before me with the sealed report still clutched tightly between his hands. “I need you to be certain before you say anything else, because if Rowan has discovered what Elaine has been hiding, everything inside Silverclaw could change before we understand what we've uncovered here.”The scout lowered his head respectfully before answering, “We haven't confirmed exactly what Rowan knows yet, Your Majesty, but our source witnessed a private confrontation between the Alpha and Elaine. Rowan reportedly appeared furious afterward, and Elaine immediately ordered several members of her personal guard to prevent anyone from entering her chambers.”I took the report from him and opened it carefully, my eyes moving across the information while an uneasy feeling settled inside me. Only hours earlier, I had believed Elaine's secrets were something we could investigate quietly, but now I was beginning

JORDAN'S POVI watched Rowan enter the private meeting chamber, and the first thing I noticed was how different he looked from the man I had known before. The arrogance that once followed him everywhere had disappeared, replaced by exhaustion, regret, and the unmistakable weight of someone finally facing his own mistakes.He still carried himself like an Alpha, but there was nothing intimidating about him anymore. His shoulders were tense, his eyes looked tired, and even the confidence in his movements seemed forced. Whatever he had discovered about Elaine had clearly shaken him more deeply than he wanted anyone to know.Scarlett sat beside me with her hands resting quietly in her lap, her expression unreadable as Rowan approached. I knew she had agreed to this meeting because she wanted answers, not because she wanted Rowan back in her life. Still, seeing him again was clearly bringing memories she had worked hard to bury.Rowan pulled out the chair opposite us and sat slowly, his ey

JORDAN'S POVThe moment the guard announced that Elaine had escaped, I felt every muscle in my body tighten. For several seconds, nobody moved, as though the words needed time to sink in. Then instinct took over, and I immediately ordered the palace sealed before she could get far.I turned toward the nearest guards and gave my orders without allowing myself time to think. Every entrance and exit had to be watched, every servant questioned, and every hidden passage searched. Elaine knew the palace well enough to disappear, and I refused to underestimate how much damage she could cause.My greatest concern was Scarlett and Charles. Elaine knew enough about Scarlett's past to hurt her, but now that she had escaped, she could decide to stop hiding and expose everything she knew. Worse, she could target Charles simply because hurting him would be the easiest way to hurt Scarlett.I ordered several warriors to remain outside Scarlett's chambers while another group escorted her to a secured
