Leland looked up at Sophie and smiled. However, because of the hideous wound on his face, his smile looked contorted. This made Sophie feel so sad. She touched his cheek with tears forming in her eyes. "Who did you get into a fight with?" she asked him earnestly. She could recognize claw marks on his body when she applied the ointment earlier, along with severe bite marks. It seemed hard to believe that the Royal Lycan Hunter's weapons would look similar to Lycan's claws and fangs. "The royal lycan…

Karenina clenched her jaws. "No, if I didn't experience it myself, I would never believe that you are capable of such a thing. I was so shocked and devastated after the assault. However, after thinking about it all night, I decided to forgive Your Majesty by convincing myself that sooner or later we will get married." She looked at Nicholas angrily. "I am so stupid… I should have stuck with my story and not tried to protect you. You don't even appreciate what I did. I never thought Your Majesty would…

"Karenina," Nicholas sighed. "How could I rip your dress with my bare hands? That doesn't seem right." He remembered he got a massive headache after he saw Sophia Romanov at the party. He was frustrated and drank too much wine. He didn't usually get drunk like that, but who knows, maybe stress contributed to his condition. Nicholas didn't remember much after that. But, could drunkenness make him really strong that he could rip clothes with his bare hands? Oh... Suddenly, Nicholas felt like he wanted to…

Karenina actually understood what happened. She knew Nicholas didn't love her and hoped she would break their engagement. She was not dumb. However, she chose not to take the hint. How could she ask the king to end their betrothal? She was pressured by her father and her extended family. They relied on her to elevate their family's status. She also had to carry the shame if those other noblewomen, who were jealous of her luck, mocked her further. By agreeing to the engagement five years ago, Karenina had…

TAP TAP The king was moved from his reverie when he heard someone's footsteps approaching. Nicholas stopped massaging his temples and looked up toward the sounds. The young king was a little surprised when he saw Karenina was standing in front of him with tears in her eyes. "How could Your Majesty do something so horrible to me? After you slept with me and took my honor, Your Majesty just left me..." Karenina began to sob. "And when you came back, you didn't even bother to check up on me..." Nicholas…

The image of the little girl with slightly pinkish-gray hair was still visible in Nicholas' mind. More and more, Nicholas felt that the girl resembled Sophia Romanov. Now he knew the reason why he was so obsessed with Sophia Romanov. It was because Sophia Romanov resembled the little girl who might have helped him fourteen years ago. Was that what happened? Because they looked similar? Oh... Nicholas was very curious to know the answer. Was there a slight possibility that... Sophia Romanov and that…

"Mother... please tell me everything," Nicholas held his mother's hands and looked her in the eye. "While I was in the royal villa, I was haunted by the question of how I became a lycan and what if everyone in Riga found out that their king was a lycan." Queen Marianne raised her face and stared back at her son. "You are the king now, to hell with other people..." "Huh?" Nicholas thought he was dreaming. Did his mother just let out curse words? "What do you mean, Mother? Don't you feel worried if other…

"Y-you... you said you woke up as a lycan?" The queen asked with a hoarse voice. She needed to make sure that she heard him correctly, that this was not her imagination or nightmare. "Yes." Nicholas began to recount his story of how he woke up in the meadow in the form of a gray wolf. At that time, he was utterly confused and decided to go to the royal villa in Livstad. "I am not sure why, but I immediately went to the royal villa after I transformed." He didn't share with his mother that he might be…

The two servants who had been busy chatting were surprised when they saw the arrival of the king. As the king continued to walk closer to them, they could only look down in fear because they thought the king had overheard their chatter and was going to punish them. They finally breathed a sigh of relief as the king passed them by without saying anything. Nicholas continued to make long strides down the corridor, and before long, he finally arrived at his mother's chamber. "Mother," Nicholas called from…

Nicholas was still seated down by the window as he continued to gaze at Duke Romanov's building. He wondered about Duke Romanov having ties to the lycans and what they were doing in Livstad and was reminded of the events of five years ago. At that time, Duke Romanov brought his whole family to leave Livstad, and coincided with an attack from a werewolf pack. Were the two things related? "Ah." Nicholas grabbed his neck again in frustration. Every time he tried to find an answer, new questions came…
