Fae sighed in relief when she heard Mischa clarify everything. She lacked the energy to argue and reply to Sarah''s attacks.

    Soon, servants came with trays filled with dishes, snacks, and drinks. The royal gala guests all grabbed drinks and snacks for them while chatting and socializing.

    The royal gala started with some classy performances, and the atmosphere was so fun. Fae deliberately took a sip of her orange juice slowly so that she didn''t have to take a drink from the servants'' trays because almost all of them contain alcohol.

    Fae just realized that the servants only pass trays of non-alcoholic drinks to the table with underage guests, such as the table near the entrance where Ren had taken the juice for her.

    Ugh ... she was getting thirsty, and the orange juice was running out. Did she have to walk all the way to the other end just to get some juice? Later the people from her table would ask in confusion at seeing her get a drink from far away. They would be suspicious.

    "Good evening, Miss Fae Muller ..." Suddenly, a servant came over to Fae with a tray containing a glass of drink which was prepared beautifully with a cherry and chunks of pineapple on top. "His Highness Prince Renald sent you a drink. He said he wanted to apologize for taking your drink earlier."

    Fae rolled her eyes in astonishment. She turned her head to the other corner of the hall, where Ren and his grandparents were sitting and chatting with other members of the royal family.

    She saw Ren was staring at her while holding a glass. The man casually raised his glass and gave a toast to Fae.

    Ren was sending her a drink? Wasn''t this a cocktail? Didn''t he know Fae was pregnant? How could he do this?

    Fae was annoyed. If Ren had publicly sent her a cocktail, of course, she couldn''t refuse it. She would humiliate the prince in front of the crowd, and it would make many people hate her since the public loved their prince.

    Frowning, she finally nodded to the servant and accepted the drink.

    "His Highness asked you to drink it and tell me if you like the taste," said the servant, smiling.

    Ugh ... Fae pursed her lips. She was actually thinking of accepting the cocktail, but she would later leave it on the table and not drink it. However, now she was subtly forced to drink it right away...

    Reluctantly Fae finally raised her glass to her lips and took a sip of the drink Ren had sent her.

    Ugh ... this drink tasted sweet like ...

    Fae''s beautiful eyes went round, and she spontaneously turned back to Ren. Unfortunately, the young man now paid no attention to her. He seemed to focus his attention on Queen Elena, who was speaking.

    Fae looked down and tried to hold back her tears from dripping. She really didn''t understand all of Ren''s attitude so far. Why could he be hurtful and loving at the wrong times?

    Ren understood Fae''s dilemma in not wanting to drink alcoholic drinks while at the royal gala because of her pregnancy, and he sent her a mocktail so that the girl didn''t get thirsty.

    The shape of the glass and the decoration of the drink looked like an ordinary cocktail so that no one would suspect that Fae was pregnant, even though the drink she consumed did not contain any alcohol.

    Ren''s actions made Fae feel touched. But at the same time, she was also confused.

    Didn''t Ren hate her pregnancy? Ren didn''t want this child from her... but why was he treating Fae this way, so attentively?

    ''Please ... stop confusing me, Ren,'' Fae could only beg silently.

    "What do you think, Miss?" asked the waiter again.

    Fae nodded with difficulty. "It''s-delicious ... I like the drink. Tell the Prince that I am very grateful."

    "Ah, His Highness said that if you like my drink, then I have to serve you all night. He is very specific. If he feels guilty to someone .. he will make up for his deeds seriously."

    "What did you say?" Fae raised her eyebrows in surprise. "You will serve me here all night?"

    "That''s right. I''ll be standing nearby. Whenever Miss want another drink, please ask me." She bowed down and then said goodbye. "Please excuse me. I will wait for your orders."

    Everyone sitting at the RMI table looked at each other in amazement, except for Mischa. The man only glanced at Prince Renald who looked indifferent and completely unwilling to look their way.

    He became more and more interested to find out what really happened between Fae and Prince Renald.

    "T-that .. is that a drink from Prince Renald?" Sarah asked in a stuttering voice. "How do you know Prince Renald? Why would he feel guilty to you and give you a servant to serve you drink all night?"

    Fae just shrugged, didn''t want to answer.

    Fae didn''t want to answer Sarah''s question at all. Never mind Sarah, even Mischa didn''t know the story about Fae and Ren''s relationship. The man only found out that Ren was Fae''s husband because Ren told him so when Mischa saved Fae in the Old Town after being harassed by Hendrik.

    What was clear, Fae felt very relieved because Ren provided her with her own servant. Fae did not need to worry about what she drank and no one was suspicious of her.

    Ren made it seem like he had made a big mistake to Fae so now he was making up for it by providing a servant to care for her needs. Inwardly, Fae felt grateful because at least Ren was not bad towards his children.

    Even though Ren didn''t want these babies, he still protected the mother and children from trouble.

    Ahh ... Fae tried not to think about Ren anymore. The man just confused her. At times like this, she didn''t need any additional problems. She just needed to do her best and then went back to her village. She would forget everything that happened in Almstad.

    Fae also no longer cared about their divorce. Ren was the Crown Prince of Moravia. His marital status with Fae would actually hurt himself if he didn''t immediately take care of it.

    If indeed Ren chose to marry Amelia just like what his family wanted and then ascend the throne in place of his grandfather, then his marriage to Amelia would not be legitimate until he divorced Fae.

    Thus, Fae only needed to wait and did not need to spend her own money and energy to take care of it in Monaco.

    THE CURSED PRINCE

    [WARNING: MATURE CONTENT]

    The crown prince was cursed on the day he was born, that he will never be happy. What''s worse, no woman could touch him without dying.

    Thus, finding a wife to produce an heir became the royal family''s greatest challenge since the prince is the only son.

    Until one day.. A slave girl who tried to kill him didn''t end up dying after they touched. Emmelyn was a princess from one of their colonies who vowed to avenge her family''s death by killing the crown prince.. And that''s how she ended up in his castle.

    Seeing that she was the only woman he could have sexual relationship with, without killing her, the prince made an agreement to let her go and free her kingdom from his oppression if she produced for him three heirs.

    Emmelyn said yes, but every day that they were together, she made plans to kill him and get her revenge.

    Can Emmelyn get what she wanted, or would she be entangled deeper with the enemy who was deemed as the devil incarnate himself by his enemies?

    ****

    EXCERPT

    "You will be the mother of my children," said the man in a commanding tone.

    His shameless words rendered Emmelyn speechless and shocked, more so, than the kiss he landed on her lips earlier.

    "Eh ... wait.. what? Hold on a minute," Emmelyn, who was moved from her shock, hurriedly rubbed her lips roughly as if trying to remove the devil''s marks from them. "I don''t want to be your wife! I don''t want to marry you, you devil!!"

    The man frowned and squinted his eyes menacingly. "Who said anything about marriage?"

    .

    TEN YEARS LATER

    "Rrr... it''s been too long. Let me go."

    "You haven''t given me heir number 3."

    "But you''re the one who was always busy when I was on my cycle. Not my fault!"

    "Hey, lady! A deal is a deal."
