VENUS

Mallory’s eyes widen slowly. “What?”

The room falls silent again.

Bronze looks at Simon without hesitation now. “Capture her.”

Mallory stumbles back. “Bronze–”

“Place her in a secured cell,” he says coldly. “Ensure the unborn child is not harmed.”

Simon nods immediately. Two guards move toward Mallory.

“No!” she screams suddenly, panic finally exploding out of her. “You can’t do this to me!”

But nobody moves to help her. Not even the pack people who used to worship. Now they stare at her

    VENUSMaya blinks a few times and her face falls. “But I planned so many things. Can’t you postpone those affairs for today?” she asks. “I’m afraid not.” Her face turns hard. “Your Grace, are you avoiding me on purpose?” she asks. “You’re acting quite rude with me for no reason at all.” I narrow my eyes. “Bold of you to say that when you paid the waiter at my banquet to ruin my dress.” Panic flares across her eyes. “W-what? M-me? I..” she looks at Juhi. Juhi steps forward. “Your Grace, please refrain from putting such a huge blame on Her Highness. Just because you don’t like her doesn't mean you get to spread false rumors.” “False?” Daisy raises a brow. “The waiter was interrogated by the king. He confessed that it was Lady Maya who paid him to spill wine on Lady Venus’s dress.” Juhi’s eyes widen and Maya’s face turns pale. “H-he must be lying. He’s trying to frame me!” Maya yells, losing her composure. She grabs hold of my shoulders. “Please believe me, Your Grace. I wouldn’t

    VENUS“It’s nothing to worry about but a premature bond between your wolf and pup can cause complications when you shift before your pregnancy.” My heart leaps into my throat. “What?!” “When you shift, your body goes through a lot of physical and hormonal changes. Usually, it’s not a big deal. But when a life is growing inside you, the rearrangement of the bones and the changes in hormones will affect the embryo’s development. It’s like when you rearrange a room, you have to move things around. Too much movement or pressure on your womb during that shift can cause complications.” My face turns pale. “W-will my pup be in danger?” “Don’t worry. These complications tend to happen in unshifted pregnant women so we can handle it. All you need to do is keep a nurse around you. Usually it's difficult to predict when you’ll shift so keeping one around will help you during that circumstance. Also tell someone to contact me as soon as you prepare for shifting. In case you don’t shift, there

    VENUSAlex suddenly appears beside us. "Impressive." He glances toward Nana. "I think you finally have competition."Nana raises an eyebrow. "Competition? For what?""For delivering insults."Several people laugh. Nana immediately punches Alex in the stomach.Alex doubles over. "Ow!"The old woman looks completely unbothered. "And where were you all this while?""I was…working." Alex groans while clutching his stomach."You still have so much strength left in you, old woman. I’ll tell the King to assign you a position in the military."I smile on hearing their banter. The tension that had suffocated the ballroom earlier has completely disappeared.I glance across the room. Maya's smile looks strained. Beside her, Thane looks ready to strangle someone.Good.I reach for a glass of champagne from a passing tray. Then gently tap the side with a spoon.The ballroom slowly quiets and everyone turns toward me.I take a steady breath and smile. "My name is Venus Donovan. I come from the Iron

    VENUSMy heart skips. One glance is all it takes for his eyes to widen slightly. His gaze finally lifts to mine. "I don’t have any words to describe what I see."My heart does an embarrassing little flip.Sid groans. "Get a room." The two women immediately walk ahead, leaving me with him. I look back at Rowan. “You were waiting for me?” He hums. “I wondered if you’re okay so I came to check.” "What if I wasn't fine and decided to not attend the party?" I ask quietly.He raises a brow and his answer comes without hesitation. "Then I'd stop the banquet." His hand finds mine. "I don't care about the banquet." His thumb brushes gently against my skin. "I care about you."Warmth spreads through my chest. The reason I had the courage to not give up is because of him. I know he won’t leave me alone in all of this and even if no one stands for me, he will. I squeeze his hand. “Let’s go.” We walk back toward the ballroom. The doors open and conversation in the hall dies instantly. A colle

    VENUSI bite the inside of my cheek. Because technically...the dress isn't terrible. It's just nowhere near Maya's level.Alaric smiles. "If Lady Venus wishes to stand out more, perhaps additional makeup would help." His gaze drifts over my waist. "Or maybe a dark belt."The mockery is obvious and then he snaps his fingers. “Bring my drink.”At that, Clara rushes to him with a drink in his hand. He looks at the glass and scrunches his nose. “I want more ice on it. Go fetch more ice.” Saying that he walks away. Clara nods. When she notices me, her face brightens. "My Lady, you look beautiful."I raise a brow. “Are you sure? This dress doesn't look that flattering.” She purses her lips. “Well, I would have added more color to it–”“CLARA!” Alaric shouts, making all of us flinch. “Ice!” “Coming!” She yells and gives all of us a smile, she walks away. Nana sighs heavily. "We'll have to repair this damage later. But this is clearly odd. Alaric never disappointed us with his designs." S

    VENUSThe massive hall glitters beneath crystal chandeliers. Alphas of different packs, businessmen, CEOs of famous companies, council members, military officers, and reporters fill the room. Music flows through the air, played by an orchestra group at the other end of the hall. Conversations pause as people stare at me curiously. I force myself to smile. Rowan's hand settles over mine reassuringly.For the next hour, everything goes smoothly. Rowan introduces me to some businessmen and industry owners. I speak with them politely, trying to make sure I don’t look nervous or overwhelmed, which I am from the inside. The herald announces two more names and I look past my shoulder. Thane enters with Maya holding his arm. A ripple moves through the room. Her emerald gown is stunning. The rich fabric hugs her figure perfectly while emerald gemstones glitter throughout the design like stars.The design and the way she has done her hair and makeup is impossible to ignore. People openly

    VENUS“I understand your feelings. Mallory’s behavior has changed.” I mutter while we walk ahead. But that’s the reason I didn’t push it too far. I could have spoken against her but with the power she holds now, it’ll be stupidity. If there’s anything that I have learnt so far from my mistakes, it

    VENUSRowan doesn’t even look at him. His eyes stay on me, steady and unreadable. “Do you want to participate in the hunt, Venus?”My heart flips. What kind of question is that?“I… of course I would,” I say, blinking. “But I can’t. So why are you asking?”He asks again, voice calm. “Do you want to

    VENUSShe jolts like I slapped her. Her eyes widen before she quickly blinks it away.“I’m fine,” she says quickly. She’s lying. I can feel it.But with the forest swallowing the light and the hunt already begun… I decide not to push.We move deeper into the forest, where the light barely reaches

    ROWANI stare at Alex, stunned for a second. I had not expected that at all.Alex adds quickly, “She doesn’t know I’m taking her there.”I nod slowly as the realization clicks. So he has not asked her specifically about the festival. That means the actual date part is still vague in her mind.Venus
