Chapter 186:
“You bitch!” I spat, raising my hand to strike her across the face—
But I stopped midway.
As much as I wanted to rip her into pieces, I just couldn’t. I didn’t understand why, but whenever I was around her, I couldn’t bear to hurt her.
Frustrated, I flung her away from me, causing her to tumble out of the bed, but it wasn’t enough to cause her any real pain.
“My King, take it easy,” Jasper tried to calm me, but I remained unyielding.
“Please, listen to me,” he whispered, holding my shoulders. “Just breathe.”
Slowly, my harsh breaths became more rhythmic, and my vision cleared. My heart still raced, but it wasn’t as frantic as before.
“I don’t understand what’s happening,” he said, his confused eyes searching mine for an explanation.
“What don’t you understand? You’re not blind!” I snapped, hissing in irritation.
It didn’t take long for me to realize that tears were gathering in my eyes, threatening to fall.
The last thing I wanted was for anyone to see me cry over a woman. But she wasn’t just any woman—she was my property, my slave.
I couldn’t cry over a mere slave. I was the King, and there were many high-status women out there.
I blinked hard, forcing back the tears, refusing to let them fall.
“But Aurora is your breeder,” Jasper said quietly, trying to make sense of it all.

“And she’s cheating on me with Ray,” I spat, the anger still burning in my chest. “She’s forgotten she belongs to me alone. She’s my property to use and dispose of, but she let that bastard Ray deceive her. He’s the one who got her pregnant, not me. Aurora isn’t carrying my heir,” I said, the last words breaking my heart. My voice faltered, but I summoned the strength to continue.
I couldn’t let her destroy my ruthlessness.
“But the nurse said the baby is yours,” Jasper argued, trying to reason with me.
I cut him off sharply. “Don’t let yourself be deceived. It’s already humiliating enough that two women have managed to trick me.”
Jasper’s eyes widened in shock as the full weight of my words sank in.
“She conspired with the nurse to deceive me. That child belongs to Ray,” I confessed, breaking down. Jasper gasped in disbelief.
“Are you sure Aurora is capable of such grave actions without considering the consequences? She doesn’t seem like herself to me.”
“She’s deceiving you because you already know her secret.”
“Maybe we should confront her. And the child isn’t as innocent as you think. She and her lover even planned an elopement.”
“Aurora?”
“Yes.”
“What do you want to do?” he asked, his face contorting into a deep frown.
“I want her banished forever. Neither she nor any of her offspring will ever be welcomed here. She must leave with nothing, and most importantly, her lover must be killed!”
