Jace Proposes To Clary Lady Midnight の小説・ストーリー

He kissed it and pulled me toward himself. I took a deep breath and looked at the crowd. My eyes fell on Janet and my stomach turned. She looked like she was about to shift and throw herself at me. “I would like you to meet Madeline Clark, your Luna, and Queen,” Dimitri said as he placed a kiss on the top of my head. The crowd cheered and started clapping. Seeing so many smiling faces helped me relax a little. My eyes fell on Seth and my heart clenched a little. He was smiling at me, but I could see the pain in his eyes.

All eyes turned to Mira now, who was now stuttering, unable to defend herself. Then running like a headless chicken was Damien, who stepped forward from the crowd, demanding answers from Mira. At that point, I was done with the drama. Clara spoke again, her voice strong and steady. “Today is my coronation as the Luna of this pack and my mating ceremony with my mate. I do not owe anyone proof of who I am. This ceremony will take place, and no one will stop it.” Damn. I have never been so proud of anyone before, but right now, I was so fucking proud of her for defending herself and making the whole situation ease.

It's a completely different ring than the one with the huge diamond stone, and it's plainly less complicated. “Cattleya, I know we just found each other for a very short time. But from then, I know I found the right person to love…” My brows crumpled in confusion because I couldn't understand what he was saying. Why is Jaxson suddenly acting like this? “Catt,” he began softly, “I want to ask you a question in front of these people who value and respect me… Will you marry me and be a Madrigal for the rest of your life?” A smile flashed on his lips as his eyes gleamed looking up at me.

Later in the evening, Iris pulled out some clothes from his wardrobe and began to dress up. “Do you have an engagement tonight?" I asked him as I munched on a bowl of popcorn. I don't know what Luca put in this bowl but it seems I will be having one at any given opportunity. “We are going clubbing," Iris said to me and it took me about a second to understand that he said we. “How come?" I said to Iris, this popcorn was hitting some spots correctly. " Lucien was last seen going to Latoya, I want to be sure that his corpse was properly disposed of,” Iris said and I rolled my eyes.

"Okay, whatever you want." "Are you sure?? I can ask for anything." "I know you. I trust you. So whatever you want." "Be careful darling. You don't know me yet." "I know you. Tell me what is it??" "I will tell you when it will be the time. " "Should I meet you tonight?? You want to go out for dinner." "Yeah, sure but I will be busy today. I will try to make it to you. But I want to show you something. So I will take you out tomorrow. Okay."

Behind me, the glass door slid open an inch more. “Jason?” Clara's voice was small, but steady. I turned immediately.“I’m here,” he said. And I was. “So what’s the plan?” Mike asked, “Ain’t you getting married to Clara again or what?” “I’m serious,” Mike pressed. “People are asking. You disappear, then you show up, then you disappear again. One minute you’re done, next minute you’re talking about forever. Which is it?” “There’s no plan,” I said flatly.

I look up into his dark, piercing eyes. “Before you say yes,” Clay says, and his voice gets rough and serious, “I want you to hear this clearly. You know my reputation. I run around with a lot of females. But if we do this, if we walk into that temple on the Blood Moon Celebration, that life ends. I will never make you look stupid, and I do not want a fake marriage. I like to joke, but this is real. I want a true mate bond. In every single way. Do you understand me, Lamia?”

"First, I am going to introduce you to the two universes I rule tonight. You'll be at my side during the corporate board event, and you'll set foot on the Midnight Eclipse Pack property as my official fiancée. Both of those things will happen.” Clara’s respiratory system constricted and her pulse stuttered as the import of his announcement began to sink in. "Dominic... they will hate me," she whispered, thinking of the traditionalist wolves and the snobbish high society humans who had the expectation that Luna would be perfect and pristine. Dominic emitted a dark, threatening chuckle, and a rapid, dangerous spark flared in his eyes. "Let 'em try."

Clara's POV 'Who is the business tycoon's new flame?' 'Trouble in paradise between hotelier Derek Montenegro and Madison Riley?' I ignored the headlines in the rest of the tabloids and skipped through them. I sighed in relief. At least none of them captured my face. "This calls for a moment to celebrate," Layla clapped her hands together. "Lucy!" she yelled. Her expression changed as she was hit with a realisation. "Oh wait, she is not here today," she whispered. "Margaret!" she yelled again.

Her actions reveal her resolute decision, leaving Jax puzzled about Audrey's sudden departure. Audrey arrives at the "Midnight Club" and scans the surroundings, searching for Luke. The club is still in the process of being prepared for the night, with workers sweeping the floors. She spots Luke engaged in conversation with the staff members at the bar. Determined, she strides towards him and directly announces her intention, "I am leaving."
