Chapter 187: Chapter 187: All I Want Is You

Kael’s POV~

Half the night passed, and I was still standing there like a damn fool. I didn’t move. Didn’t go back. Because I couldn’t.

I just stood there, staring at that window like it would suddenly tell me the truth.

My body was stiff, my mind going in circles. What if it really was her? What if I had seen wrong? I didn’t know, and that was killing me inside.

The light in that room had gone dark a few times already. Maybe she went to sleep. Maybe someone else went in. I didn’t care anymore. I just needed to see it once. Just one look. If I didn’t, I’d suffocate.

I let out a breath and looked around at the silent courtyard. The guards were there but too lazy, half asleep. I could move faster than them anyway. Climbing a wall wasn’t anything for me. It was like walking straight on the ground.

So, before I could think twice, I moved.

My boots made no sound. My body knew what to do; the movements were sharp and practiced. Within seconds, I was up the side wall, slipping through the shadows like smoke.

And then I was inside.

The air smelled soft and warm. It was a girl’s room.

I blinked once, looking around... pale curtains, flowers on the table, shiny little trinkets, and silk sheets. Everything screamed delicate.

Definitely a girl’s room.

And not just any girl.

The way it was decorated, the colors, the details...it had status written all over it. In this palace, you could tell who someone was just by how their room looked. And this one... this one was close to the Elder Lycan Prince’s wing.


So she had to be someone important.

I walked slowly, my boots soft against the carpet, until I reached the bed. My heart thumped like it was ready to break my ribs.

There she was.

A small figure sleeping soundly, back turned to me.

I froze.

Was it her? Those eyes... the ones I saw earlier. Were they hers?

I didn’t even know when I bent closer, my breath shaking a little. I just needed to confirm. Just see her face once.

And then she moved.
