Chapter 586: Having Fun With The Wood Elf (2)*
Third Person’s POV
But due to unfortunate circumstances, circumstances she did not want to remember right now, she had been forced to flee from her continent.
She had left behind her home, her reputation, her dreams, and had come to this frozen land as a refugee, hiding behind a mask of arrogance and indifference.
And even in this continent, it was only for the outsiders to see that she was the lover of the young prince Erius, who was the son of the youngest and most beloved wife of the Ice Emperor.
That rumor had been useful as it had granted her protection, status, and a measure of safety in a world that was often cruel to outsiders.
But in reality, she only worked under him and his mother.
There was no romance between them, no secret longing, and no hidden affection.
It was all a facade that had been carefully constructed to serve a purpose.
Though it was not that she lacked enough beauty or genius to be the lover of the Ice Prince.
She knew her own worth, her striking elvish features, her magical talent, and her sharp mind.
But there was a huge secret about Prince Erius hidden from everyone behind this arrangement, a secret that even she didn’t know.
And she was sure that only mother and son knew about this, so whatever it might be, it would create a heaven-shaking uproar that its effects might be felt everywhere, so she did not dare to pry into it, no matter how much her curiosity urged her to.
