Chapter 210 PRINCESS AEKEIRA Everything hurt .
Seeing him again hurt , like tearing open an old wound .
Seeing his incredibly handsome face , reliving the past , remembering the pain , it was excruciating .
+5 Knowing she was still going to lose him again soon , that she would have to go through that same pain all over again … was ten times excruciating .
She was already losing him , bit by bit .
One of his hands was now a paw , and Aekeira dreaded to imagine where the shift ended beneath his robes .
I cant do this again .
She had thought she could handle it .
She had thought she was ready to face the past again .
But now , standing before him , she realized how unprepared she was : She wasnt ready .
Lord Vladya rose too .
Dont leave , Aekeira .
He took a step towards her .
Aekeira shook her head , Please dont .
She had to leave , because even though she wasnt ready to face this all over again , she still wanted him .
Pathetic , isnt it ? She still craved to see his face .
Yearned to be in his arms again .
Listen to his voice all day .
Stay by his side and make do with the moment .
The longing she had spent years burying had awoken with a jerk … rising … about to swallow her whole .
I have to leave ! Her voice was desperate now .
No , Aekeira , Another step forward .
Aekeira whirled around and bolted for the entrance .
She didnt get far .
Lord Vladya was upon her in an instant , pressing her against the wall .
Someone was sobbing .
It took her a moment to realize it was her Her emotions were spilling over .
Feelings she had buried deep for years now bursting free .
12:24 Mon , Jan 27 Chapter 210 Let me go ! she screamed , blindly beating at his chest with hersts .
Let me go , please ! Young princess , I am so sorry .
His voice was the softest she had ever heard it .
You hurt me .
That morning , in your bed … I thought we were finally getting somewhere .
But you threw me away like I meant nothing ! she sobbed , her words tumbling out .
Did I mean so little to you ? You avoided me for a week , then you tossed me aside ! Please , forgive me , dearling .
Two years ! Two years felt like twenty ! Every day I breathed , yet have never felt so dead .
You broke my heart ! she screamed , tears streaming down her face .
You broke me ! He kissed her .
Aekeira struggled .
Her fists pounded frantically against his chest .
But his hands gently restrained hers .
She fought , and fought hard .
Not to feel that kiss .
To deny the sensations .
Not to feel him again .
But it was a lost cause .
His lips on hers , his tongue in her , mouth .
The kiss seeped deep into her soul .
Soothing the pain .
Calming the storm .
Like a serum , it relieved the scathing pain from the wounds she had carried for so long .
Her struggles ceased , and Aekeira sobbed against his lips .
Crying uncontrollably , her tears mixing with the kiss .
Yet , he didnt stop .
He kissed her , and kissed her , and kissed her .
Time fell away .
The world around them disappeared .
An eternity later , he broke the kiss , and licked away her tears with such rare tenderness .
I apologize with everything in me , for hurting you this way .
The raw truth , the deep regret , in his voice , made her open her eyes .
His face was a mirror of her own pain .
Im so sorry , my little bird , You hurt me , she cried helplessly , her breath hitching as the tears continued to flow .
You h hurt me .
It was never my intention .
Giving you your freedom was the only decision I could make then .
Letting whatever we had between us continue … it was ill advised for so many reasons .
His tone was overflowing with remorse .
Im soulless , Aekeira .
That alone made it impossible .
Im also on a highway to madness , another reason .
And you … you are 2/4 12:24 Mon , Jan 27 Chapter 210 077 % human .
You are not Syren .
Even if I had my soul , its not possible for a bond to take place between us .
When Daemon offered to set you free , I thought it was best .
Hearing it laid out like that , Aekeira understood , Frankly , She had thought of all this herself over the years .
She could understand why he did what he did .
Yet , understanding didnt lessen the pain .
And now ? she whispered .
What about now ? Now , I regret that decision more than anything .
I sent you away so you would not see me go feral , but when it came down to it , you were all I wanted by my side .
As I battled against it , I found myself hoping praying that I would recover enough to cross into the human world and bring you back here , Aekeira , to where you truly belong .
He looked her in the eyes , I wish Id never let you go .
PRINCESS EMERIEL As Emeriel stood before the grand kings residence , she took in the grandeur of the place .
The sophisticated decorations , the massive double doors carved with two lions , their mouths open in fierce roars .
The last time she had stood here , she had been a slave terrified of her secrets , carrying his dinner .
That was the best part about being back in this city , the freedom from that strangling fear .
There were no secrets now .
No deception weighing her down .
This was who she was .
Are you ready ? Lord Ottai asked beside her .
She inclined her head and took a step forward .
One more thing , he said , halting her .
He does not like to feed .
If you try , and his claws slip out , let it go .
Dont push him , or he may claw you up like the others .
Hes … not in his right mind .
Emeriel gave a curt nod .
Led to King Daemonikais bedchamber , she paused at the door while the Urekai maids departed .
Then , with a deep breath , she opened it and stepped inside .
His scent hit her first .
It was overpowering .
An assault on her senses after two long years without it .
She swayed on the spot , and her knees buckled .
Gripping the wall , Emeriel tried to steady herself .
Everywhere smelled like him .
There he was .
Lying peacefully on the bed .
Magnificent .
Handsome .
Just as she remembered .
Too much like a dream .
Their bond was dormant now , the only thing she had clung to when she made the decision to return .
Seeing him again 12:24 Mon , Jan 27 G · Chapter 210 would be easy , she had convinced herself .
Without the bond , there would be no feelings .
But that was a lie .
Nothing could have prepared Emeriel for the explosion of feelings that hit her .

So many at once it made her dizzy .
She was not prepared for the stab in her chest , nor was she for the butterflies that fluttered to life at the pit of her stomach .
They spread their wings , soaring and fluttering , alive and free again .
Emeriel had not felt this much in years .
