The Mind-Reading Mate Why Is the Lycan King So Obsessed With Me novel Chapter 60

Chapter 60: The King’s Forbidden Books (II)

Wait ...

Edmund didn’t send the marriage proposal through the Emperor of Vellmoria? He didn’t even go through the King of the Azmeria Kingdom?

He sent it directly to her father.

Then, why did the Emperor suddenly issue a decree, demanding that Primrose Vielle Illvaris be sent to the Noctvaris Kingdom as the bride of the Lycan King?

Confused, Primrose turned to the next page.

[September 23, 1576]

[Something is wrong.

I only sent the proposal letter to the Duke of Illvaris, yet the Emperor somehow learned about it. Did someone spy on me?

Why would the Emperor get involved in a personal proposal meant only for Lady Primrose and the Duke of Illvaris?

And worse, he made it an imperial decree. Now it looks as if I forced this marriage, when in truth, I simply wanted to ask, not command.

If Lady Primrose learns about this, she will surely think I trapped her here.]

Primrose’s fingers tightened slightly on the edges of the notebook.

So it wasn’t Edmund who forced the marriage.

She flipped to the next page.

[September 27, 1576]

[I wanted to refuse the Emperor’s decree.

I even prepared a letter to decline it. I don’t want to force Lady Primrose into marriage, not like this.

But ... the Elders stopped me.

They said rejecting the decree would be seen as a direct insult to the Emperor, and worse, it could cause a political war between the human and beast kingdoms.

The Elders reminded me that if conflict breaks out, the humans would take it out on the Duke’s family first, including Lady Primrose.

I have no choice.

I must accept this marriage.

But I swear, I will never hurt her. Even if she ends up hating me, it’s better than putting her family in danger.]

Primrose stared at the words, her hands tremble was getting worse with each line.

Edmund ... had wanted to refuse? He tried to protect her from this marriage?

But ... she never knew this.

All she ever thought was that he accepted it without a second thought, without caring how she felt.

But behind closed doors, he had been trapped too and even when trapped, he still thought of her.

[September 30, 1576]

[Lady Primrose arrived today.

She looked so small and fragile standing in front of the palace gates.

She must hate this place already. I can see it in her eyes.

No ... maybe she hates me too.]

Primrose felt her chest tighten. She clearly remembered that day. Back then, she really did hate this place.

She hated the cold walls, the gloomy halls, and the intimidating presence of the beasts.

But most of all, she hated Edmund.

She was about to flip to the next page when suddenly, she heard someone’s voice right outside the door. "Is my wife inside?"
