Chapter 43 King Cyrus’s eyes were speculating, even piercing, as he held Amelia in place, looking at her. Was it a glare? “I was passing by,” Amelia said, the first thing that came to her mind. “Passing by? Near the backyard at three thirty in the morning? Do you think
Chapter 42 Darkness engulfed her. It wrapped around her like a blanket, stuffing, suffocating, and never-ending.

Chapter 38 Amelia’s words caught everyone off-guard, and everyone looked at the King in surprise, wanting to see if he was angry. King Cyrus, who would’ve usually snapped at being used like that, just leaned back in his chair before smirking. On the other hand, Amelia, who realized what nonsense
Chapter 37 Amelia sat inside the car with a complicated expression. She couldn’t help but sigh at the irony of the situation. King Cyrus sat inside the car with her and looked at her from the corner of his eyes. The words from last night echoed in his ears, and

Chapter 32 Amelia looked at the man before her and pressed her lips into a thin line. According to her memories, Ryan was the most reasonable one among them. He was a person with a high intellect who loved spending time reading about research and unfolding himself in new innovations.
Chapter 31 “What the—” Amelia stopped herself just in time when Alpha Killian held her shoulders to stabilize her and prevent her from falling. “Were you going to curse me?” Killian asked with raised brows. If it had been earlier, he would’ve surely snapped at her. Then again, Amelia wouldn’t

Chapter 26 The grand chamber of the royal council hadn’t changed in decades. Its stone walls still carried the same cold vibes, the aura of judgment. Different faces were carved on the walls of the council hall, all with tremendous power in their gazes. These carved faces belonged to the
Chapter 25 High above the clouds, where the air was thin, and the winds blew through the highest peaks, where all secrets were kept and maintained, around the ancient stones and caves, some cloaked figures stood in a circle. They appeared as if they were ready to perform some ritual.
Chapter 24 It was silent. No one was speaking; they didn’t need any words to exchange. It was peaceful as Cyrus sat on the chair beside Amelia’s bed while the girl worked on some weird-looking formulas, probably a part of her healer curriculum. “Princess, you should eat some fruits to
