He raised an eyebrow. “You advised me I’m good-looking. Is my beauty what attracted you to me and made you determine to simply accept my love?”

Rowena could not reply this query. She favored Raphael lots and maybe she may even love him, but when it was as much as her, she would not settle for his love and proposal of marriage. She would keep as distant as potential from him as a result of she favored him a lot.

Nevertheless, she was pressured to simply accept his proposal and marry him as a result of, at first, it was for her father who threatened her, and now it was for herself. She realized he was highly effective and will give her no matter she wished. And proper now, she simply wished to be free from her father’s clutch and on the identical time take Julian along with her.

So, why could not she simply inform Raphael the reality? She did not wish to threat him falling out of affection along with her after he knew who she actually was and leaving her to fend for herself from her father’s wrath.

Apart from, she might inform that Raphael was jealous of Julian. So, why would she inform her fiance that she was seeing Julian in every single place and now she was making an attempt to commit against the law for Julian’s sake?

And when different folks discovered about what she did, they’d ostracize her, however that did not matter anymore. Their opinion did not matter to her. Maybe, by then Raphael would additionally depart her.

She was prepared for that to occur. No… in reality, she would go away him earlier than he might depart her.

If she wished to be sincere with herself, she knew Raphael deserved a significantly better lady than her. Somebody who wasn’t damaged and crammed with a lot resentment in her coronary heart that solely killing her father was the important thing to her peace.

Raphael did not want somebody like Rowena.

So, regardless that it pained her…

“Rowena, sweetheart.” Raphael immediately cupped Rowena’s face and gave her a kiss on the brow.

A sure glow and heat seeped into Rowena’s physique and made her really feel higher.

“W-what did you do?” Rowena blinked uncertainly.

Whereas it did not erase her horrible ideas, she was in a position to really feel a lot nicer.

“You had been so misplaced in your ideas that I used to be getting a bit lonely,” Raphael joked calmly as he let his thumb graze gently throughout her cheek. “What I did was a easy therapeutic spell for migraine. It is nothing particular, I’m merely doing my finest to change into the subsequent God of Therapeutic. Maybe by that point, I am going to be capable of soothe extra of your worries, frets, and issues as soon as I get hold of a greater grasp on it.”

Rowena’s coronary heart pounded wildly in her chest.

Did… did he actually simply begin studying and apprenticed himself to change into a God of Therapeutic due to her? No. That most likely wasn’t it, was it?

Raphael gave the impression to be the kind, Rowena remembered him taking good care of her within the valley.

“You do not have to hesitate about telling me something, Rowena.” Raphael reminded her once more with a relaxed and delicate smile. “I am right here for you and I really like you.”

It took a number of effort for Rowena to cover the despair that entangled its approach by means of her coronary heart as she selected a much less severe reply.

“I feel marrying somebody who you did not love could be fairly an issue, Raphael,” Rowena mentioned severely. “I imply, if we’re each going to be immortals and spend an eternity collectively… you would need to be with an individual you like.”

“You understand I simply wished to listen to it come out of your lips, Rowena.” Raphael chuckled as he drew in nearer to her. There was a twinkle in his eyes. “The factor I’d love essentially the most to listen to from my future spouse is three easy phrases, I really like you and also you’d make me the happiest man in all seven realms.”

His phrases had been candy like honey, so honest and sincere, that they touched Rowena’s chilly coronary heart. At this very second, none of her worries and anger appeared to matter anymore.

Why was it at all times so good to be round him and take pleasure in his affection?

Rowena’s lips slowly curved as much as type an exquisite smile. Nicely…. she would go away this man when the time got here, however immediately she could be egocentric and fake that she was actually this candy and superb lady he was in love with, and benefit from the love between them.

Slowly, her head tilted to the facet as she reached out and tugged the person nearer in for a kiss. Raphael’s eyes bulged at her initiative and he was dumbfounded when Rowena’s lips touched his, and she or he planted a candy, candy kiss on him.

The younger prince might have joked about them being undisturbed earlier, however now he was pleased that Rowena truly took the initiative this time. Nicely… Rowena did take initiative the primary time, however now, Raphael’s lips tasted the fiery ardour in the way in which that Rowena shared a steamy sizzling kiss with him.

Rowena turned out to be somebody who knew what she wished.

A sure extent of her knew this from the teachings that she acquired from Woman Mary and Liz previously, on what it meant to be spouse, however now, she was doing this for her personal egocentric wishes.
