Winner Takes All

It was the sudden miserable scream.

It was like a bolt from the blue.

Cynthia was completely dumbfounded as her body froze in the same place. She no longer approached Jack.

Failure, humiliation, reluctance...

All sorts of emotions came across her mind like a sharp knife cutting into her body mercilessly.

In her dumbfounded gaze, Jack who was near to her also froze. He rolled down the bed wretchedly and crouched in the corner by the bed. He was trembling in pain and panting heavily. Jack's reaction was as if a heavy hammer hitting onto Cynthia's delicate body violently.

At this moment, she had the feeling of being stripped naked and thrown out on the street. Her entire body was completely exposed to everybody.

Ever since she was a child, she was like Sirius in the sky due to her beauty and the pampering by the Hun King. She was superior and admired by countless people.

This had resulted in her pride and overconfidence.

Even she exposed herself to unite the foreign tribes and attracted countless handsome men to pursue her, yet she did not care and ignore them all.

She was clear that her man would be the strongest in the world!

However, she was willing to give in everything including her virginity to Jack when Jack appeared in front of her.

But the final outcome was that her proximity had caused Jack to be painful and declined her directly!

Oh my God!

Why did this happen?

Why did God treat me like this?

Cynthia had never thought before that this scene would happen in front of her.

When it really happened, she was surprised and puzzled.

For a woman willing to lose her virginity but was declined, this was indeed the greatest humiliation in the world!

Cynthia's eyes gradually turned red and filled with tears.

She tidied her bath towel and sat up while looking unwillingly at Jack who was crouching by the bed. She questioned him with a sobbing tone, "Am I so...unpleasant in your eyes?" The words revealed a strong humility.

Who would have thought that the princess of the Hun, as well as the Wolf on the snowfield, would describe herself as "unpleasant" in front of a man?

"Sorry. I'm sorry!"

Jack crouched by the bed and smiled bitterly. He raised his finger and pointed at his head, "As long as I have touched your skin, I will get a headache just like when I'm remembering the past. It seems that something is stopping me, my head is like going to burst if I don't stop.”

Jack explained tiredly as he was exhausted after the two immense pains.

After a pause, Jack's gaze drifted away as he murmured, "It seems like you're not my wife."

Boom!

A loud "boom" sounded in Cynthia's mind as she was overwhelmed with reluctance and humiliation.

She did not want to dwell on her reluctance and humiliation. So, she raised her hand to wipe off the tears from her eyes and she said firmly, "If I'm not your wife, then who is still your wife?" The ear-piercing questioning voice caused Jack to stun and frown.

When he sensed that his words were inappropriate, Jack apologized hurriedly, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said in such a way!"

"I was your wife before and I will still be your wife in the future! There is no way that everything will be overturned just because you have lost your memory while carrying out a mission!"

Cynthia said with a determined look but she already got panicked deep in her heart.

Did he...still remember the past memory?

Jack's words of questioning that she was not his wife had disturbed Cynthia thoroughly.

If Jack who was in front of her still remembered the past memory, then everything she had planned before would be completely ruined.

Cynthia knew clearly that the most urgent task now was not to be aggrieved or reluctant but to calm Jack first. She could not let all her plans be in vain!

She gritted her teeth and scolded angrily, "Just because you have lost your memory and get a splitting headache when I touch you, so you say I'm not your wife? How can you be so cruel and heartless?"

"..."

Jack was completely dumbfounded and his headache had gone by now. He was somewhat speechless when facing Cynthia's aggrieved and angry questioning.

Overwhelming guilt enveloped his whole body.

Indeed, I was too cruel to question that she was not my wife just because I got a headache when I had touched her skin!

"Just because you can't do it now, it doesn't mean that you can't do it forever. Remember, my first time only belongs to you. This is what you owe me and you will need to pay it back one day!" Cynthia reprimanded in a stern voice regardless of his reputation and status.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

The overwhelming guilt made Jack get up hurriedly at this moment. He wanted to approach and comfort Cynthia.

"Stand still!"

Cynthia scolded Jack sternly as her pretty face sulked with anger. She held back the tears in her eyes and raised her head firmly while looking straight at Jack, "Don't you get a headache if you just touch me? won't force you!"

After speaking, she tilted her head to another side while taking a deep breath as if she was suppressing her emotions and tears in her eyes.

Such a pitiful and persistent scene made Jack even guilty and heart-wrenching.

He mumbled, "I'm sorry. I will adapt myself and overcome my headache as soon as possible."

"Alright."

Cynthia muffled and responded to him.

But she just did not turn around to look at Jack again.

Jack raised his hand and wanted to approach and comfort her, but he thought that Cynthia would refuse. So, he put down his hand guiltily and said gently, "I will sleep in another room first." Cynthia did not stop him.

She waited until the room was closed with a "click".

Cynthia then only turned around and looked at the door which was shut tightly. However, anger and reluctance gradually emerged in her teary eyes.

"What is actually going on here? Why is this happening?"

Cynthia's doubtful voice sounded in the room.

The lights were charming.

Cynthia leaned lazily on the bed and sighed, "Luckily, I have reacted quickly. He hasn't regained his memory, otherwise he won't be so guilty and remorseful. But he is painful when I just touch him. What is actually going on? If I can't complete this crucial move with him, then what is my next move later?"

Cynthia's eyes flashed as her reluctance and anger were quickly suppressed. She started thinking about what to do next.

Those who had made great achievements must be able to tolerate what others could not. Cynthia was obviously not an ordinary person since she was able to unite the foreign tribes by herself. So, her initial reluctance and humiliation were suppressed quickly.

She understood clearly that the most important matter was to let Jack and her complete this crucial step, and then continue with her subsequent arrangements!

It was after a long while.

Cynthia who was pondering stretched lazily and murmured helplessly, "Fine. If we can't carry out this crucial step for the time being, I just need to switch the order of the arrangements and let him be more mature first. Then only strengthen our relationship step by step, after all...the best chance for the foreign tribes to attack southward is this long polar night."Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

"If he doesn't upgrade his strength quickly, it will still be a difficult task to fight against Zenith even if the foreign tribes unite and taking advantage of this polar night."

The Dragon Cavalry was rampaging across the foreign tribes outside the territory, looking down on everything imposingly and overbearingly.

However, everybody was clear about the battle in which Zenith had destroyed a city with a spear and a horse single-handedly. This battle had completely led to Zenith's unrivalled prestige.

The fear of the Dragon Cavalry was secondary, the real fear...was Zenith Harol!

Cynthia's gaze became firm, "I will discuss with father tomorrow to let Greedy Wolf enter the Wolf House early. If he can comprehend a few Constellations of the Wolf, also with his powerful devil state, we can at least delay the battle even if he can't beat Zenith when we attack southward!"☐☐☐☐☐☐
