CHAPTER 122BRIANNA’S POVPressing my lips together, I let out a heavy sigh and squeezed my eyes close for a moment. That was a part of my life I wanted to forget and never talk about. But if I wanted Aunt Gigi to understand how I ended up there. How Hermes and I’s relationship turned out then I needed to tell her everything. I just hope she’ll have the heart to bear it. I have known her to be soft-hearted and too emotional she can break down in the slightest of distress. Maybe even more emotional than me.“Are you okay?” She asked, giving me a questionable look. “Did something happen…”“The marriage with Hermes never worked out,” I revealed, leaving her frozen on the spot, her eyes popping and lips flying open in shock. “Hermes wasn’t the person we all believed him to be. He’s a monster…a psychopath. The devil incarnate…”Aunt Gigi stared at me with eyes that blinked rapidly, too surprised to say a word or even breath.My shoulders dropped and I closed my eyes tightly to hold back t

CHAPTER 124SEBASTIAN’S POVAfter a hectic day at the Alpha’s kings’ meeting, I finally returned to the castle. On arrival, I went to check up on Brianna but noticed she wasn’t in the guestroom I relocated her to so she could avoid using the stairs for now. She was in a very delicate state. I can’t afford anything bad happening to her. So I’m taking all the necessary precautions to prevent that.I checked the other guest rooms but she wasn’t in any of them either. My brows creased with worry. I just hope she hasn’t gone upstairs in her state. I know how stubborn and hot-headed she could be at times, and I didn’t like it one bit.As I stepped out of the guest room, about to make my way upstairs to search for her, I saw one of the maids coming into the castle from the courtyard in the back. She was carrying a tray laden with two empty glasses and some snacks. I beckoned on her.“Who’s at the courtyard?” I asked her as she approached and gave a slight bow.“It’s Miss Brianna and her vis

CHAPTER 126SEBASTIAN’S POVMy heavy eyelids fluttered open to see Brianna’s serenely compelling eyes on me, unspoken words of love alive and glowing in them. Who knew how long she had been watching me like that? Her eyes were the most beautiful pair I have ever seen. So beautiful it held a gleam no makeup could improve. So captivating I could lose myself in their depths. So enchanting I wanted to wake up to them watching me like this every morning while I woke up.I took in a deep satisfying breath, a wide smile spreading across my face as I moved closer to her on the bed and cruelly ravished every part of her tender face with my lips. She giggled, attempting to break free but she couldn’t. And I won’t even let her no matter how much she tried.“Good morning,” I said and finally let her go after I felt I had punished her enough with my kisses. “Morning love,” she blushed, a rush of pink staining her cheeks. “How was your night? Hope you slept well?”“Yeah, I did,” I breathed out,

CHAPTER 128 BRIANNA’S POV “Do you, Brianna Campbell, take Sebastian Stan to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do you part?” The priest looked at me expectantly with proud eyes. I was lost in the depths of Sebastian’s eyes when the priest said those words to me, snapping me from his enchanting gaze. Years back, if anyone had told me this day would come, that I would be getting married to anyone, much less to an Alpha King, I wouldn’t have believed them. I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life with Hermes in his hellhole of a castle and die in his hands. Little did I know fate had other plans for me. Better plans. I took a deep breath, gave a confident nod, smiled through my veil and said, “Yes, I do.” The priest asked Sebastian the same thing. Bubbling with excitement as he grinned ear to ear, he didn’t wait
