"Doctor Lehman, I need you to do something," Nicholas tapped his fingers on his desk and motioned the old doctor to come in. "I want you to go to Duke Romanov's manor and check on one of his sons' condition. I just came there today and found out that their son is injured." He uttered every word in a flat expression, but his heart was bleeding. He had to refer to Jan as Duke Romanov's son, because he didn't want the doctor to ask too many questions now. He didn't have time to explain. Right now, every…

Sophie accepted the potion from their healer and drank it to take care of her nausea. She let Luciel accompany her in her bedroom all day. The boy's presence gave her a sense of comfort. She had a lot to think about and she took the time alone to ponder on what Nicholas told her. He would change the law, he would do anything for her, including ending the war with lycans. He was willing to make up for what happened in the past. Regarding her parents' death, Sophie could forgive the royal family because…

*** "Are you okay?" Leland asked when he saw Sophie enter the building, looking so pale. She pressed her lips and shook her head weakly. The man became worried and quickly lifted her in his arms. "You must be sick." Before Sophie could say anything, he strode toward their bedroom and shouted orders to Duncan to find their healers. "I am just feeling nauseous," Sophie protested after Leland put her down on their bed. "It's the baby." "Oh..." The Alpha's face suddenly turned bright at the mention of…

Sophie held her breath when she heard Nicholas' words, uttered in such a sincere tone. He would do anything for her, including changing the laws and making peace with the lycans. Leland was more stubborn than Nicholas and he wouldn't budge for anything when Sophie asked him to spare Nicholas or try to think about peace. If both men were on the same page, things would have been easier for Sophie and her children. "I would do anything... for you," Nicholas repeated his words, as he looked at Sophie deeply.…

Nicholas immediately dodged the attack and prepared to charge back. However, before he could do anything, Sophie had jumped at Leland and hugged him as tightly as she could with her small body. "Please... stop fighting..." she shouted in frustration. "This is not the place for a fight..." "Sophia, please step back," Leland tried to unwrap her arms from his waist. "I need to teach this jerk a lesson." Sophie cried and rubbed Leland's arm. She spoke pleadingly, "Luciel is watching. Don't let him see…

"Nicholas... I came out here to talk to you because I wanted to know if you have really regained your memory. If that's the case, I want to settle whatever it was between us once and for all. I know you need closure," Sophie said with a hoarse voice. She added, "I am sorry that you lost your memories and by extension, the chance to step up. I forgive you. I understand it's not entirely your fault. It was a really unfortunate incident." Sophie tried to stay calm and looked Nicholas in the eye. She…

"I knew it!" Nicholas wiped the tears from his eyes. "You are really her. I knew I wouldn't feel attracted to just anyone. It's because.... you are my wife. You are the only woman I have ever loved." Sophie was silent. Nicholas was always very direct. He was the opposite of Leland who always kept things to himself and made Sophie guess what he was thinking. With Nicholas, it was always so easy. "Your Majesty... it's been a really long time since I last use the name Sophia Hansley," Sophie finally replied…

"Sophie... please answer me." After a while, Sophie finally batted her eyes. She managed to get over the shock she felt when she heard the question Nicholas uttered. She steeled herself and looked boldly into Nicholas' eyes. "Your Majesty, you have come here unannounced for several days and bothered my children. I only came out here to talk to you because my people told me you insisted on seeing me." Sophie tried to show no expression on her face. It was hard, so hard, but she must not give away so…
-
Sophie's voice was shaking but she kept her composure. She believed it was time to talk to Nicholas and settled things once and for all. From what she could gather, Nicholas must have remembered and now he came to seek closure. While Sophie and Leland went on their getaway, Nicholas had come every day to this manor with the intention of seeing her. He had told Lucas that he wouldn't give up until he could see the lady of the manor and speak to her. Sophie assumed Nicholas didn't come back for the past…

Nicholas arrived at the gates of Duke Romanov's manor. The building still looked chaotic and a lot of people outside were doing repairs. The guards who saw Nicholas standing outside the gate immediately glared at him and immediately shifted into their wolf forms and then dashed towards Nicholas at the gate while roaring softly. All the wolf eyes stared at Nicholas with hatred. "Duncan, tell Alpha quickly. I and the others will stop him," said Max when he and Duncan saw Nicholas Hanenbergh who was being…
