Chapter 424: The King Is Alive

"To Princess Violet,

If you’re reading this message, I’m probably gone already. Perhaps you might think me a coward, but the truth is there are urgent matters I must attend to in the Fae realm. And just maybe, I am a coward since I’m relieved I won’t be there to see the wrath on your face by the time you’re done reading this letter."

Although Violet hadn’t even finished the letter, her face was already marred by a deep frown, an ominous feeling forming in the pit of her belly. God knows what Lila had done this time.

Violet went on,

"Just as an extra measure, in case you stubbornly refused to put on the necklace. If you want to still be with your darling boyfriends, better wear that or you can say bye-bye to them forever when Baron gets his hands on you."

Violet snorted after she read that part. This was manipulation. Nonetheless, she got the message and moved on.

"Although I’ve been spelled by the queen not to tell you the identity of your father, Fae are also good at exploiting loopholes, and I hope you’d be able to make the connection by the time this story is over:

Once upon a time, there lived a young Faerie princess who had a fascination with the outside world. What would it be like to live amongst the humans? Unlike the other seasonal Fae, the wild Fae lived isolated and amongst their brethren. They had been told for so many years to be wary of the other Faeries who envied their free magic. And the humans who only wanted their powers. But the young princess knew there had to be more to them. And one day, she did escape.

She had been betrothed to marry one of the finest Fae and eligible bachelors in their kingdom. Her betrothed was from a House who had served the generations of Queens for years past, and now, they would finally be joined in marriage. But the princess never wanted the union. She was not ready for such responsibility.

So on her wedding day, she ran off to the human realm. There she hid her identity and lived amongst them as a traditional doctor. The humans were amazed by her skills, and she quickly gained favor with the locals. Of course, the princess aided her patients with the use of her magic, but they had no idea, and she was too happy to be useful.

Then one day, she received a private invitation to heal a special client. This client was a werewolf who had been stricken by a demonic illness, and no amount of medicine could help him. Except the princess never expected she would meet her mate instead.

Mating bonds between interspecies were rare, but not uncommon. However, the princess had found her destined one and she would not let him go. So she healed him with her magic till he got better.
