All Chapters of The silver wolf and the vampire Prince: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Right after class, I hurried over to Maxine in the parking lot and immediately got into the car so we could head home.Once I was inside, Maxine casually asked how my day went."How was class?""Hmm, it's okay. I'm managing. We have exams next week, so I really need to focus," I replied."That's good. You're smart, so I expect you'll do fine," Maxine remarked.As we were talking, I suddenly remembered my conversation with Cyrus from the day before, and annoyance flared up inside me."Wait, did you talk to Cyrus last night? Why would you influence him with your ideas? You know I hate getting tangled up in more complications.""Hmm... I don't understand what you mean. I didn't say anything bad to him," she answered.I grew upset and let her know that Cyrus had told me we should push through with the marriage agreement, and that it was irritating me.I knew she was probably excited to kick me out of her house, but I couldn't just suddenly move in with Cyrus and act like his girlfriend."

After Cyrus went to the hospital—summoned by Maxine so he could pick me up and take me to his house—I simply couldn't accept that Maxine was handing me over to him, especially since the Lycan clan had destined us to be married."Maxine, tell me the truth: are you doing this just to force me to marry him?" I asked."Why are you focusing on that?" she retorted. "If someone kills you, you won't even be able to marry Xian anyway. I just want to keep you safe.""But..."I couldn't bring myself to agree, knowing fully well how angry Xian would be at what we were doing. I tried to explain that this was completely unacceptable to me, especially since I already had a boyfriend."If you really want me to follow your lead and live at his house, we at least need to let Xian know."I insisted that I would only go along with Maxine's plan if I heard Xian's consent directly from him.Maxine let out a heavy sigh, asking how on earth I expected to tell Xian when I couldn't even reach him. I knew Xian

A few minutes later, we arrived at the exclusive village Cyrus had mentioned. It was very nice, with every house featuring a yard and its own parking lot. I also saw many guards, showing how strictly they checked the security of everyone entering.Once inside, a guard opened the gate to Cyrus's mansion. It was huge, and even though it was night, it was brightly lit by lamps all around."Whoa, this place is so pretty. Do you really live here?""This is one of my family's largest houses. For now, my father has me living here so I can study."He admitted that despite his wealthy background, he didn't actually own anything of his own. According to their clan's laws, the head of the family only handed down inheritances once their child got married or did something significant for the family."As long as I don't have a job, I don't have my own money, so until now, I still depend on whatever my father gives me," Cyrus said.He also mentioned that his family constantly watched over him, so he

Hours passed during school until I was finally forced to go to the Lycan office to grab some lunch.Since Maxine hadn't given me any money and I was too embarrassed to ask, I had no choice but to accept Cyrus's offer to share lunch with him in his office.During every break before heading to the library, Cyrus was on duty at the office, so he usually ate there as well."I didn't know what you liked, so I just bought a lot."I just smirked because aside from rice and viands, he also bought burgers and pizza. "Wait, this is way too much. Are you going to finish all of that?""This is partly your fault for not telling me what you wanted to eat for lunch," he pointed out.I was surprised to notice that he hadn't touched any of the food even though he had been inside the room first."Did you seriously wait for me before eating?" I asked."Hmm... of course. I'm used to eating with company, and this is a fun bonding moment for friends," he answered with a smile."Suit yourself, but at least

Xian's POV. Three days have passed since I came to the country of Veron for a vacation with Ivy.I didn't know whether I should be angry at Ivy for this, seeing as even she knew nothing about her father's scheming. She told me she didn't want to travel abroad and simply agreed because she felt she had no choice. I knew she didn't want to oppose the vacation orchestrated for us by the Dracula clan. It was clear to me she was trying to charm me into finally consenting to the marriage.While I was on the phone with Maxine, Ivy suddenly walked into my room."Are you still awake, Xian? Do you want us to have a drink before going to bed?" Ivy asked sweetly.She was wearing her pajamas while holding two glasses and a bottle of wine. We had separate rooms even though we stayed in the same villa, purposely to avoid anything untypical happening between us."Isn't our flight early tomorrow? We shouldn't be drinking tonight," I replied.She just smiled and ignored what I said as she placed the w
