The silver wolf and the vampire Prince의 모든 챕터: 챕터 141 - 챕터 150

Ivy's POV As I sat in the bar, drowning myself in alcohol to forget the misery of today, a heavy ache settled in my chest. It hurt so much hearing the truth straight from Xian's lips—that there was someone else he loved. I was furious, consumed by bitterness toward everything and everyone. I had been drinking for almost three hours, yet I still couldn't find any comfort in the liquor. It hurt—it hurt so damn much. I set the empty bottle down on the table, realizing I had already finished six of them, and a heavy drowsiness was beginning to creep in. "Hey, why are you falling asleep there? Are you drunk?" I muttered. Across from me was Cyrus, who looked ready to pass out right on the table. He was fighting hard to keep his eyes open, still managing a weak smile as he spoke to me. "What? Me? Drunk? Not yet." He fell silent for a moment, pressing a hand to his face. "I'm just a little dizzy... Ivy, can we go back to the resort now?" "What? Are you out of your mind? I already to

Several days passed. Over at the Lycan clan base where Elaine was imprisoned, Cyrus paid her another visit to break the news about Xian and Ivy's release. "An agreement was reached between Xian and Ivy. They were given a chance to go free and escape death on the condition that they marry each other," Cyrus said. Elaine was struck speechless, frozen in place. She couldn't believe Xian and Ivy were actually going to get married just to secure their freedom. After everything they had sacrificed and endured, Xian was giving in at the last moment just to survive. Elaine lowered her head and forced a bitter smile. "Well, to be fair, being locked up isn't easy, and we have to accept that we lost this battle." Cyrus could sense the heavy wave of sadness and disappointment radiating from her. He knew Elaine had chosen to stay imprisoned precisely because she refused to let go of her promise to Xian. "I don't know the whole story, but I don't think they're doing this just because he gave

Elaine successfully made it out of the massive building where she had been imprisoned, but she still needed to escape the Lycan clan's compound grounds, which spanned nearly twenty hectares. "I had no idea this place was so huge." Because the facility-wide alarm had sounded, every guard in the entire area—including those stationed in the other buildings—was on high alert. Those who caught sight of her stared in utter amazement at how a human-looking girl possessed a wolf's ears and tail, her entire body now cloaked in an energy that blazed like living fire. "I can't believe I'm seeing someone like this. She's a werewolf with an extraordinary appearance and power." "Call the Lycan clan's elite squad and have that woman captured!" "Captain, three of the elite knights are on the grounds and are heading over to provide backup," one of the guards reported. The Lycan group's elite squad consisted of warriors possessing unique abilities much like Cyrus. They were battle-hardened vete

Cyrus's POV I was on my way to the Lycan clan's base. Since it's about a two-hour drive from our mansion, I decided to bring some food along for Elaine. My mind was at ease, and I was looking forward to the day because I knew I could make Elaine happy by showing up for her birthday. I knew how lonely it must be sitting all alone in that cell, and I kept imagining her crying in there. I let out a heavy sigh as I drove. Part of me couldn't help but wonder if I was exerting way too much effort just for Elaine. I knew she didn't love me, and all these actions of mine were putting my studies on hold and interfering with what I was supposed to be doing with my life. Even so, I didn't know why I felt compelled to do this for her, even though I knew she would never truly be mine. Because I refused to break off the arranged marriage, it means I'm forbidden from marrying anyone else for the next fifty years. And what's worse, once she gets out of prison, she might just go looking for Xia

After talking for a few minutes and finishing their meal, they quickly got into the car and drove off. "We don't have time to prepare because Xian and Ivy's wedding is this afternoon." While in the car, they discussed their plan to attack the church. They knew the Black Rose family had over a hundred guards, which would make things very difficult. "It's a public place, so we can get close, and I think getting inside will be easy. The real problem is getting back out," Cyrus said. "Getting out?" Cyrus explained that once the guards were alerted, they would surely attack and wouldn't just let them walk away. "Another problem is that since it's a royal wedding, important guests and family members from the Dracula clan will definitely be there." Elaine lowered her head and fell silent, which Cyrus immediately noticed, sensing she was getting scared. "What? Are you scared now? You can still back out while it's early, because once we start this, there's no turning back."
