บท 406: MINE TO BEGIN WITH

IVAN POV

I struggled to understand the words I had just heard from Harald and Yasmin. The whole dungeon grew silent, no one said anything and the only sound you could hear was that of the dripping water that echoed through the air. I blinked repeatedly as I my mind became imprisoned by the unbearable truth I had just learned.

Kiran and the rest of my friends stared at me, their faces etched with sorrow and concern as they revealed the unthinkable. I stared down at Arianne who was still asleep, my beloved wife. My beloved chosen mate, the girl who had saved me despite her fears when we were kids. The woman who had stood by my side through thick and thin was going to marry that evil bastard, all to save me and our kingdom.
