Loving The Cursed Werewolf King-Chapter 512: Arthur Explanation

However, it wasn’t Arielle who left things unfinished. In the middle of the silent night, she walked slowly into the hall and found Arthur still sitting alone with a sweaty face in the iron bars.

The hall was very quiet, and there was not a single dragon on guard, which made it so easy for Arielle to enter the hall without any restrictions.

"Good evening, Your Majesty." Arielle’s greeting made Arthur, who almost went crazy, just let out a long sigh of relief.

Arielle approached Arthur again. There were a lot of unanswered questions in her head. Even her logic couldn’t understand why someone who had been dead for a long time could come back to life and be in this place?

"Your Majesty? Let me introduce—"

"I know," Arthur interrupted in a very weak tone. "I know who you are."

"You know? How could that be?"

Arthur rubbed his face. His hands were still shaking from Maxieno’s ploy that was messing around in his head. He didn’t get any physical violence other than the two people holding him tightly to keep his eyes on Maxieno.

Maxieno went inside Arthur’s head, opening Pandora’s box and his trauma then putting it back. After the man messed with the inside of his head, Maxieno just left, and now Arthur had no reason to live anymore because his daughter’s life would be threatened.

"You are Arielle, the wife of my son, Ronan D. Blackthorn," Arthur replied in a half-whispered voice.

"Your Majesty..."

"I am not a king. Stop calling me by that name!" Arthur snapped. He didn’t like people mentioning his title again. "What are you doing here? You should be in the palace and be the queen!"

Arielle reached her hand between the bars and touched the man’s wrinkled hand.

"Your Majesty, I am here to help my husband. Ronan, your son suffers a lot every full moon night, and I want to end his curse. I also want to bring spring to Northendell, so he can fight the trauma in his past..." 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"No, Arielle. It’s all just bullshit. Our curse will never be lifted," Arthur replied with tears starting to fall on his ghostly pale cheeks, making Arielle feel sad.

"That’s what I’m here for, Your Majesty."

Arthur still shook his head. He did not believe Arielle’s words in the slightest. It was all just a lie. He had spent decades with this curse. He had seen his father also going through the same thing, and Ronan would also experience the same thing. This curse had no way out.

Even after more than ten years of being a slave to the werewolf clan with the promise to release this curse, none of them had any intention of revealing the way. Even the werewolf clan itself didn’t know how to control Amadea’s curse.

"I know how to lift it," Arielle replied.

"I know how to lift the curse because I am the descendant of the Moon Goddess. I, Arielle, will prove to you that I can lift this curse."

Arielle took Arthur’s hand, then held it tightly.

"But, Your Majesty. What are you doing here? Why did you attack the dragon clan? And... and... How did you survive?"

Arthur didn’t have the ability to hold back his grief anymore. Maximeno’s mental torment made him a desperate man. He could only cry while lamenting his fate, and also his daughter who was still with the werewolf clan.

Arthur lowered his head, resting his tired head on the softness of Arielle’s palm. The girl’s soft hands reminded him of the warmth of his daughter’s hands. It was full of hope and new opportunities.

Arielle let Arthur cry in her arms.

"I was saved by the werewolves. I don’t know how they can heal me so fast. Maybe in the same way I can live unscathed as I am now," Arthur said, looking at his body which had no burns or cuts.

Arthur told about what happened thirteen years ago. Then, Arielle burst into tears when the man told her that he didn’t kill the baby.

"Who is it, then? All this time Ronan always thought that you killed Princess Irene," Arielle asked in confusion.

"I don’t know! It coincided with the full moon. But, I haven’t turned into a wolf completely. I saw another wolf taking Irene. I could recognize my daughter straight away. The wolf swapped Irene for a dead baby girl. Then, I turned into a wolf. After that, I didn’t remember anything. I didn’t even remember the mess Ronan made before he disappeared. The last thing I remembered was that after the day passed and my charred body was ready to be eaten by wild animals on the edge of the forest, a group of people saved me. They were the werewolf clan."

"Then, who is your daughter that you mean?" What about Princess Irene?" Arielle asked.

"It turned out that Irene was kidnapped by a werewolf group. They said Irene was their Luna candidate, but I still don’t understand what happened because they didn’t tell me anything about it at all."

Arielle covered her mouth. The story that Arthur told made her head almost explode. Her eyes started to glaze over.

"Irene... Irene... is she still alive?" Arielle asked in relief.

Arthur nodded, and Arielle felt incredibly happy.

Ronan had harbored guilt for a dozen years and it was hard to forget his little sister. Knowing that Princess Irene was still alive, Ronan could learn to accept his past again. This was great news! Arielle needed to tell Ronan this! She held Arthur’s hand tightly then tried to open her lines of communication to talk to Ronan.

However, before Arielle could call the man’s name, a pair of familiar golden eyes flashed in her head with a smirk. Maxieno was looking through her head, and Arielle quickly tried to close her thoughts again.

Arielle looked up at the empty hall door. Even though Maxieno wasn’t there, she could feel a very strong aura as if a pair of eyes were watching her. Otis had been warning her for a dozen times. Arielle should have listened to Otis well.
