Chapter 60
“That’s right! So don’t worry, you didn’t ruin anything” Maya gives me an assuring smile and explains, “There was a hidden clause in the deal, there always will be something like with witches like Evelyn. She only promised to take off the curse she had on not she wouldn’t exchange it for
something else during the process. I don’t know what particular she’s planning, but I guarantee you that you won’t like the result even if you had sealed the deal”
“How do you know?” I ask,
“The magic lines around her hand when she wanted to shake on it; if you’re able to read arcane text you’d be able to make out the clause, though it’s very tiny. When she was focusing on that hidden clause, I took the opportunity to cast the Truthful Spell on her while all her attention was on you guys

“Maya, thank you for helping me find out the culprit of my parents‘ death. It’s just..

“Cheer up. Maya winks at me, “Do you really think that if I didn’t make any progress, His Majesty would allow me to freely roam around here?” Ethan huffs but he doesn’t disagree with Maya, She continues. “Listen, making a deal with that crazy woman wasn’t the main reason we went there.” Maya smiles. “While I was in her cabin. I looked around and figured out what ingredients she used to cast the curse.”
She takes out a piece of paper that contains a list of ingredients and then hands it to me and Ethan
I take a look at the list, shocked at what I see. Even with my limited knowledge I know these raw materials are not easy to come by.
“These are rare,” I mutter, glancing at Ethan
The king doesn’t seem fazed, merely handing her back the list,

see that you have the funds to acquire those,” he says
Maya gives Ethan an exaggerated courtesy, “Your Majesty, you’re the most generous man I’ve ever seen Anyway, once I have everything I need, I can brew something that should be able to revert the curse.”
“Should,” Ethan pulls on the word with meaning.
Maya regards him with a look and then nods
“Yes, should,” she repeats. “What I am trying is to undo another witch’s curse. And that is always going to be very tricky. It’s like trying to forge their signature and trick the curse into thinking I’m Evelyn, so to speak. I am reasonably confident, but I can’t guarantee that it will definitely work
“Then what are you waiting for?” Ethan clearly is kicking Maya out of the room.
Maya pauses for a moment, and then quickly grasps what the king wants.
“Oh right! Your Majesty Yes, I should get it started!” she says as she waves to me, Tll come visit you soon, Princess.
With that, Maya also exits the room, leaving just me and Ethan again.
It’s awkwardly silent in the room. I clear my throat and start, “han, regardless of what Maya said, I feel I still owe you an apology.
“What for?” he asks.
“You told me to prioritize the goal for our trip. I made a promise but I broke it. I lost my cool. This time we’re lucky because Maya had a plan, but……. what if something like this happens again?”
Ethan is silent a moment b
before moving to sit on the couch next to me.
“I’ve been thinking” he says softly. “On the way back. The entire time we were interacting with Evelyn, she had everything in control, until you jumped on her.”
“I don’t know where you’re going. I way.
“She was just playing with us,” he says after another pause, as if he’s sorting through his thoughts. “Until you attacked her. She didn’t anticipate that, and she had to kick us out at the last minute in order to protect herself. You may feel like you ruined what we are looking for, but the reality is, you did the exact opposite–you ruined what she was trying to seck.”
I glance down at my nails, perfect humun nails now.
“I wanted to hurt her. I wanted to kill h
I her and make her suffer,” I murmur softly, barely able to hear myself.

“Anyone would have in your position.” Ethan adds. “Your wolf is awakening, and it seems like confronted with the woman that put her to sleep so many years ago, she wasn’t able to control her temper. Understandably sox”
Without thinking. I immediately reach inside of myself, I search every crevice of my mind, trying to find her. But she is silent now. Maybe this morning’s antics had been well beyond her.

“Maybe.“1 mutter to him. “But I need to gain better control over her and her emotions now more than ever. I didn’t think the curse aggression the way it did.”
“You have done more than what any other woman in your condition would have done.” Ethan says generously. “We will figure this out. I promise.” I take a glance at Ethan then, and I see the golden light that had been coming off of him since the Harvest festival.

time it is much, much brighter than before. There is even a warmth that comes from the glow, and it pulls me towards him like a trance. I can’t help myself. Something inside me wants to be close to him, so I lean in towards him, moving slowly and giving him more than enough time to pull away if he wants to. And then I press my lips against his
Ethan is a bit surprised but kisses me back with zero hesitation. There is comfort in the kiss, not the usual dominance from his unknowable intentions,
Ethan doesn’t break the kiss, he only deepens it as he moves onto the bed with me. I sigh into his lips as I wrap my arms around his neck, and Ethan settles on the bed, his hands finding my hips.
“Tell me to stop,” Ethan says gently, “And I will”
I hold his gaze entirely.
“Do not stop.“1 beg him.
Ethan offers a half s
smile half smirk, and then he gets up off the bed and I protest.
“Don’t worry,” he says, as he starts to take off his clothing. “I’m not going anywhere.”
He drops his jacket to the floor, then his shirt comes off. He pulls his belt loose from his pants, and then his pants follow after. And then he gets back on the bed.
He lays over me, resting on his forearm as he hovers over me. His hands slip under my dress, massaging my thigh. I drape one arm over his shoulder and I moan as his hand travels further upwards,
And then, all at once, he cups my mound with his hand. I am already wet, already warm. Ethan moans as I do.
“You drive me crazy,” Ethan murmurs. “Always so ready for me:
I bite my lip, his words are true, but I can’t help it. He slips a finger inside and I don’t have to think any further. He pushes another finger in and then another, and my mind short circuits.
He works his finger in me, stretching, opening. And then without warning, his hand is gone, and his cock slides in me, smooth and firm.
He pushes all the way in and my body gives, I moan uncontrollably as he stretches me, pushing past all my

I try my best to listen, and I let him do as he wishes, bringing me to climax as he thrusts in me over and over, Ethan rides the wave of pleass me, making sure not to crush me.
My chest hraves as I try to come down from my high, and Eshan moves to the side of me,
“Now rest,” he commands, as he gathers me in his arms.
“Will you stay with me until I fall asleep?” I ask, my eyes already closing as I try and hold on tightly to him.
