"Aw, so touching," Isolde said then she burst out laughing. Five seconds later, she ordered her men to beat Anne who just curled her body and protected her head with her claws. Anne allowed herself to be beaten because she couldn't see her husband being tortured for much longer. Seeing Anne being beaten until she was bleeding, Jack screamed hysterically while Isolde kept laughing like a maniac. Isolde walked over and partially transformed her arm into a claw. She immediately slashed Anne's back multiple…

"What did I do to you, Isolde?" Anne threw a murderous glare at Isolde. "Why did you do this to my family?" "I just hate you. That is all," said Isolde nonchalantly. "That is a good enough reason for me." "Why? Did Leon know you're doing this? He and I have no problems..." Anne's chest felt so heavy when she saw her husband being treated that way just because Isolde hated her. She remembered the moment fifteen years ago when Leon came to visit her in her hut. Leon came to tell her that he would move on…

Anne and Jack gave Leland a lot of love, care, and affection that made his heart feel very warm. They gave him all the things he never got from his biological parents. They were two people who meant so much to him. And now he had to see how they died at the hands of his own mother? Could he bear the sight? Just thinking about it made Leland feel so upset. "Are you scared? I didn't know you could be so affected by something," said Eloise seeing Leland's pale, tense face. This was the first time she saw…

Eloise spoke so calmly. "They've been dead for a long time." "Are you trying to play me?" Leland stared at Eloise coldly. Even though he already suspected that Anne and Jack were truly dead, this confirmation still broke his heart. "You haven't changed at all, have you? Always quick to anger." Eloise smiled more broadly. Then she continued her words, "They are indeed dead but they actually died a few weeks after the massacre in the forest which made Sophie think that it was her parents who died and were…

All this time, the people of the Armeria Kingdom that they had colonized so far were very afraid and submitted to the Obsidian Sand Pack lycans because of Elias' cruelty. If the people found out that Elias was dead, Eloise was sure they would revolt and the lycans of the Obsidian Sand Pack would be chased out. She didn't want to leave the power and good life she had, being the queen of Armeria. So, of course, any news about Elias' death during the duel must be covered up. No matter how hard the spies…

Nicholas was still trying to talk, "Mother, but I..." "You're a father too," said Queen Marianne, cutting Nicholas off quickly. "If you don't care as much about your people, at least think about your sons. What will happen to them if you died, trying to save another man?" Nicholas was stunned to hear that. "You know the polemic that is taking place among the royal officials about Luciel and Jan, right? Even though many of them are currently silent, it doesn't mean they agree and actually accept Jan and…

Queen Marianne nodded at Nicholas and the young king went out to call a servant and asked them to bring tea to Sophie's room. "Your Grace is too kind," Sophie said. She respectfully welcomed them to sit on the sofa by the window. "Please have a seat. We can see the moon from here, the window is quite big." The queen sat next to Sophie and she studied Sophie's face carefully. The young woman's face looked slightly wrinkled, her skin was dry, the eye bags were drooping and there were dark circles around…
-
"You are okay?" Queen Marianne touched her son's cheek and asked softly. Nicholas who had been lost in thought was stunned. He stared at his mother's face for a moment then nodded slowly. "Hm," he replied, smiling bitterly. "You do your best to cover up your feelings, but don't cover them up in front of your mother." Queen Marianne wiped the tears under Nicholas' eyes with her index finger and then showed it to Nicholas. "Yes." Nicholas took a deep breath. His chest was really tight. "It hurts but I…

Sophie walked over to the edge of her balcony. She looked up at the silver moon and imagined Leland's face within the moon. "Leland... Are you hurt? Are you sick? Are you in trouble and that's why you can't come home immediately?" She sobbed softly and started to cry. She was very worried that something bad would happen to the man. "Please be okay... please be okay..." Sophie didn't want to think negatively but thoughts like Leland being caught and killed kept haunting her and it scared her…

"Ugh...!" Leland groaned in annoyance because his body couldn't move at all. He had put all his strength into moving but to no avail. The poison actually almost paralyzed all of his motoric nerves. He didn't know if he should be grateful or curse his bad luck because he couldn't move his body but he was still able to move his eyes and speak well. The poison not only made his body immobile but also numbed him. He couldn't even feel his own hands and feet. If he didn't see them, he wouldn't know that right…
