Aurora stared at him, her body slightly nembling
Damien took this chance and stepped forward. His handsome e softened. There was a gleam in his gorgeous, smokey-
grey eyes
Can you give us a second chance?” he asked in a h**se voice.
Aurora booked at him in a trance.
After a long pause, she uttered, “…No.”
Damien’s face darkened instantly.
“NO?!” he gritted.
“No.”
Damien wondered what changed her?
The answer was the Ravenwoods changed her. And not just the Ravenwoods, Chloe, John, Olive, John, those snobbish s**s and maids..all those people who had abused and bullied her in the past changed her!
They changed that fierce little girl into a useless loser. Because she got nobody on her side and didn’t have any means to fight back
And Damien.He did nothing when those people bullied her, which made him an accomplice!
She would never get back with her enemy!
“Is there somebody else?” Damien asked abruptly.
“It is none of your f**g business.”
“Tell me!” he growled. His heart seized by panic and anger.
Was it too late to win back Aurora now?
No, he wouldn’t accept it.
It was never too late for him and Aurora.
He was used to getting everything he wanted in life.
He could MAKE Aurora trust him and fall in love with him again. He was certain of that.
“Tell me who that man is,” he demanded darkly.
He might f**g kill that man.
Yet before Aurora could say anything, a voice came from their back yelling:
-G**a Aurora!”
It was Kaelan.
He came rushing down the stairs and arrived at Aurora’s side slightly out of breath. His eyes darted warily from Dainien to

Aurora and asked. “Cammma Aurora, is be bothering you again?”
Aurora answered with a smile, “No, Karlan, it’s line. What are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be at the party right now?
“The party is no fun without you. So I volunteered to drive you back to the hotel. Are you ready to go now?”
Damien looked at the smile on Aurora’s face and felt a sore feeling rising in his chest.
He remembered Aurora uses to smile to him like that when they were still married, like he was her whole world.
But he tossed that away himself.
Now he could see nothing but hatred and disdain in Aurora’s eyes when she looked at him.
“Of course, let’s go now,” Aurora said.
As she walked past Damien, he suddenly spoke, “So, is it him? “This soldier?”
Aurora saw the disdain and coldness in his eyes, as if he were looking at a c**h when he looked at Kaelan.
Aurora didn’t want to explain, but fearing Damien might hurt Kaelan, she replied in a freezing voice, “It’s none of your business. And I hope this is the last time you bother me with ancient history. I will see you at Chloe’s trial”
Damien stood on the spot staring at her back as she and Kaçlan Walked away.
A sullen look appeared on his face.
Words spread out fast.
By the next morning, everyone from nobles to **ts had found out about what happened the previous night at the party,
It was a shocking news really! The youngest daughter of the Ravenwood family tried to frame Alpha Lance for raping, and it was followed by the astonishing disclosure of G**a Aurora’s real identity!
People couldn’t shut up about it.
For 3 days long, this was all they could talk about.
On the third day of the party, an open trial was held in the Civic Square.
According to Silver Blade Pack’s law, the Alpha and elders would determine Chloe’s penalty and the public’s opinion would also be taken into consideration.
With the first ray of sunlight, people started to pour into the Civic Square.
By the time Alphas and nobles arrived around 9 a.m, the Civic Square was already clogged with people coming to observe
Chloe’s trial.
Chloe might be adorned by many young men in the upper class, but she didn’t have a good reputation among
commoners.
the
Many had heard how she bullied and tortured her maids and s**ts. People just never had the chance to expose it
Everyone was now thrilled to see Chloe get punished for what she had done.
Aurora arrived at the Civic Square right after Damien did. That armless maid Angelina was by her side as well.
There was an exciting look on her face.
Today was the day she avenged herself.
With everyone present, it was time for the trail to begin.
“Let the defendant come up!” said an elder in a booming voice.
Two guards escorted Chloe up to the stage.
Chloe was wearing chains and shackles. Her face was smeared with tears stains and her hairs was a mess. She was still wearing the same gown from the party the other day, but it was all dirty and ragged now.
She spent the last 3 days in prison so there was no place for her to shower. There was an unpleasant smell coming from her.
Boos broke out from the crowd when she appeared.
“G**d, what is that awful smell!” someone cried covering his nose. “She stinks!”
“How dare she calls herself a lady? Even more so-a princess? I am laughing my a**off?”
“Get out of here. G**a Aurora is the real princess! Chloe was nothing compared to her.”
“I couldn’t believe that I once found her attractive. She makes me want to puke!” said a young man bitterly.
His words won a round of laughter from the crowd.
Chloe had heard everything people were saying. She held her head really low trying to avoid those hostile glares. Her face was flaming red with shame.
The guards brought her to center of the stage, facing the nobles and elders.
Chloe stared down at her feet nervously and heard the elder’s voce coming from above her heard:
“The defendant had arrived. Does the defendant have any family or friends who want to act on the defendant’s defense?”
The guards replied, “The defendant’s family is waiting outside of the square. Shall I bring them in?”
“Yes. Bring them in.”
Chloe snapped her head up and looked around eagerly.
Her family had come.
She knew they would come! She was their only daughter. There was no way her parents would abandon her.
Chloe felt a revival of hope.
Her dear family was her only chance to get out this now!
