Chapter 1697: (END)


    Two words — and they betrayed everything. From the very beginning, Ryanna had harbored a single ambition: the throne. The King had stubbornly refused to relinquish his power, issuing threat after threat until her position grew dangerously tenuous. Katelyn’s arrival had offered the perfect opportunity, and Ryanna had always possessed the instinct to weigh her options without hesitation.


    Katelyn departed the pce with the unhurried ease of an honored guest.


    Beneath the grand archway, she paused and lifted her gaze to the silver moon. “Dad,” she whispered, “I have avenged you and Mom.”


    A torrent of emotions churned within her. She could never have foreseen such life-altering revtions unfolding within the span of mere days. Though she had been reunited with her mother atst, a profound sorrow still moved through her like an unstoppable tide.


    A car halted abruptly before her. Vincent stepped out, and before he had even reached her side, the metallic scent of blood reached him.


    “Katelyn — are you hurt?”


    She said nothing. Instead, she stepped forward and folded herself into his arms. Only there did she find sanctuary from the chaos. Vincent held back his questions and pulled her close, and they remained that way — still and silent, suspended together in the darkness.


    After a long while, Katelyn tilted her face up to meet his eyes. “Vincent, let’s get married here — in Yata.”


    He looked down at her. His typicallyposed features softened into something tender. “Okay.”


    ???????? ???????? ???????? ?????????? ???? ??????????????????.??????


    On his way here, he had learned the full truth of everything. Those who mattered had survived. And the woman he loved was still beside him — perhaps the greatest reward either of them could have hoped for.


    From within the shelter of his embrace, Katelyn’s voice emerged like a quiet confession.


    “Vincent, I love you.”


    “Katelyn, I love you too — beyond measure.”
