"This is more than enough," Nicholas said. he added with a smile, "Thank you." "So what is your purpose in coming here, Your Majesty?" asked Viscount Verhoven in an annoyed tone. "I…." Nicholas paused his sentence and then looked at Karenina for a moment before turning back to Viscount Verhovent. He tried to word the purpose of his visit carefully. No one liked to hear bad news. He spoke softly. "I want to break off my engagement to Karenina." There was a feeling of relief, filling his chest after he…

NOTE: Thank you, Kelly Goodwin dear, for so gifting a castle among many other things to this book yesterday. xx . . . _______________________ Eloise said, "I knew you are my soul sister the moment I saw you in the royal palace garden. I am very happy we met and share a goal. I will help you get rid of that woman... and then you can do whatever you want with King Nicholas Hannenbergh." "Thank you," said Karenina with a smile.

"Please have a tea," said Eloise politely. "I feel so thirsty after the carriage ride." She glanced at Karenina and smirked. The princess looked uncomfortable with her offer. So, Eloise took the cup in front of Karenina and switched it with hers. She said, "You are smart for not easily trusting other people. I can drink the tea from your cup to show you that there is nothing in there. I didn't put poison in it... hahahaha." Karenina batted her eyes. She wanted to say that she was not suspicious of…

Karenina was stunned when she saw the woman. "You?" She frowned at this impostor who claimed to be her cousin. However, Karenina was a good actress. She immediately changed her reaction and smiled at the uninvited guest and greeted her. "You're here." Karenina immediately guessed that this beautiful woman before her, who pretended to be her cousin, was the grand witch Eloise, that Gwen told her about. Eloise smiled at Karenina and nodded her head. "I am here. I wanted to give you a surprise." "It…

"How do you like our new home?" Sophie asked Luciel after they finished dinner. The smart boy wiggled a finger and corrected his mother. "This is not our new home." "Ahh... well, I mean this home. Do you like this place?" Sophie chuckled and cast her glance around them. Their dining room was much bigger than the one they had in Livstad and overall, the castle and its ground were also bigger than their manor. Luciel said he liked it. So did Jan. They caught two rabbits already when they played with…

Note: Dear, Kelly Goodwin, thank you for gifting a castle to this book yesterday. I love you! Muahh!! . . . _________________________ This was where it all began for Sophie.

She was not even aware he existed. So, for her... it all started in Hastings. This made the small town become special in her heart. Sophie…

Noel stared at the king without blinking. He had been asking himself the same question ever since he started feeling suspicious toward the king. What if... the king was truly a lycan? Would he keep swearing his loyalty to the crown or... what would he do? The previous crown was the one who assembled the Royal Lycan Hunter. Those members of the team were chosen from knights and military officers who were talented and had the same views as the late King William Hannenbergh. Many of them had a personal…

It would be really nice if he could promote peace between the two races. Once he stepped down from the throne, he would expect either Luciel or Jan to replace him and take over power. Since both his sons were lycans, it was important that the people, the human citizens could start accepting lycans as part of this kingdom too. Now, the question was... Sophie's new husband. Would he be open to talking about a peace agreement? Nicholas hated Duke Romanov to the core, but he was a fair king and had to admit,…

"I also decided to be loyal to you," said a minister sitting beside Lord Baden and the man sitting beside him also conveyed the same thing followed by the man sitting at the table to the right of Nicholas. After a while, all the higher-ups had stated their decision and all chose to remain loyal to the king. "Thank you." Nicholas smiled and turned to look at the other meeting participants. He was relieved to hear the majority of the people were supportive of his situation. It helped a lot that he had…

*** Nicholas was relieved when he found out that almost all of his maternal relatives knew that he had lycanthropy. It felt like the first layer of the heavy cloud that had filled his chest all along had just disappeared. Now that he turned to look at his paternal relatives, they were all silent and looked surprised. Nicholas didn't know what to say. At this moment he could only stare at them with hopeful and anxious feelings. After a while of waiting, one of them sighed then nodded and conveyed his…
