Chapter 5 - Chapter 5

Luna Van and Darcy Anjou are about to report a wedding. Darcy Anjou is the Queen's eldest son, but due to his reputation and rumours of psychosis, the royal family did not choose a large party for the wedding.

It's not that they don't want to, it's that Darcy Anjou would go mad in public and embarrass the royal family.

Luna Van didn't have a problem with that, so after the news of the couple's marriage to Duke Darcy Anjou was published in the newspaper, the royal family had their marriage agreement signed and notarized by the Bureau of Marriage.

Luna Van is officially the partner of Darcy Anjou by marrying Darcy Anjou.

As a noble royal, though, the Queen streamlined everything by cancelling the wedding to avoid Duke Darcy Anjou going mad. However, in order to honor Marshal Allen Van and to show the entire Emperor star aristocratic circle who Luna Van will be, the Empress chose to hold a grand wedding reception.

The Emperor star invited the entire family of nobles to come to dinner.

The whole party starts at four in the afternoon and lasts until ten in the evening.

Darcy Anjou, Luna Van's partner and co-star of the party, was nowhere to be seen. However, the Emperor made a brief appearance to express his wishes for the marriage of Luna Van and Darcy Anjou and also had a profound partnership in front of the crowd.

The Queen has always been by Luna Van's side, leading her to reintroduce herself to the nobles she already knew in her new identity.

The well-dressed aristocrat smiled and congratulated her on her wedding, but Luna Van could tell that they were laughing at her.

A wedding without a groom?

Luna Van, however, has taken the situation well.

She just quietly accompany the queen's side, to accompany her as a son's husband.

She didn't marry for love, and she wasn't married to a normal person, so she wasn't upset or embarrassed about her situation.

She was very at ease with herself.

The crowd went home and began to talk about Luna Van's marriage without the false smiles on their faces.

Some people think she deserved it when she sold her marriage for a position of power. Some thought it a pity that such a beauty, though a little bitchy, should be married to a moody, disabled lunatic.

"How terrible! This Luna Van would die for a position of power. Dozens, if not hundreds, of Omega's have been killed by Duke Darcy Anjou... This is the royal deliberately suppressed the news, in fact, who knows if he has killed ordinary people, the whole is a cruel and heartless Lord... She would dare to marry such an Alpha..."

"I've never seen such a shabby wedding. It's a shame..."

"Don't laugh at the poor wedding, I don't know if she'll last a month."

"She deserved it, too."

As Brecht Williams listened to the whispers around him, his eyebrows puckered up, and his heart was bitter for some reason as he remembered Luna Van, the woman to whom he had once been engaged.

He did not like Luna Van, but also hated Luna Van's act of pretending to be his rescuer and making an engagement with him.

But he never wanted her to die.

But Luna Van chose to marry the Blue-beard Duke Darcy Anjou of her own free will. Although he couldn't understand the mindset of Luna Van in making her choice, Brecht Williams felt that marrying an Alpha like that might not end well for her.

"Brecht, is that Darcy Anjou Duke really that terrible? It's all my fault. If only I'd talked to Luna a little more and tried to work things out between her and Cillian..." Just as Brecht Williams was distracted, a pitiful voice rang in his ear, full of concern for Luna Van: "Then she would not have married the duke, if I had tried a little harder..."

Alice Van's voice suddenly pulled Brecht Williams back to reality, and made Brecht Williams suddenly recall Luna Van's evil deeds in the past and his repeated schemes against Alice Van.

Alice Van was the one he really cared about.

A bitch like Luna Van doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same breath. If she did die, it was her own doing, and she did not deserve his sympathy.

Brecht Williams kept telling himself this, but somehow a sense of loss came over him.

His intuition seemed to tell him that he had lost something precious and important to him forever.

...

Duke Darcy Anjou chose his own residence. It is located in the most desolate part of Emperor star, covering a large area of more than 2,000 acres.

But it did not give a luxury aristocratic mansion both visual sense, but a dark through a decadent breath, let people shiver.

In the dark of night, not a single street light was on in the grounds of the mansion.

As the hovercar sped along, faster and faster, farther and farther away, shadows of trees passed before Luna Van's eyes, and she felt as if she were on a train to hell.

The queen's maid knocked at the closed dark door.

At the moment the door opened, a cold and damp smell came from the pavement, which made people feel that it was like a tomb where evil ghosts and vampires lived, rather than the residence of the living.

"Hello, Miss Jones." The white-haired housekeeper, who is said to be the only able-bodied person in the house, greeted the Queen's henchmen respectfully.

"Hello, Eddie Brown." Anna Jones looked at the butler with a smile and introduced him. "This is the Duke's newly married husband. I'm bringing the Lady here on behalf of Her Majesty."

The butler immediately made another respectful salute to Luna Van: "How do you do, your Excellency the Duchess? I'll be your service, and you can ask me if you need anything."

At that moment, a robotic servant with a severed right hand stepped forward to carry Luna Van's luggage...

Darcy Anjou, who is disabled himself, has no place in his own palace, where, apart from his ageing butler, even robots are broken.

This personal preference is strange and pernicious.

Luna Van, surveying the strange mansion, answered softly, "Yes."

...

At the moment, Darcy Anjou, known as the Duke of Bluebeard, is sitting in his wheelchair, watching a stereoprojection of gruesome videos recreating ancient criminal laws...

"It is your wedding night, my Lord. Madame is here; you had better hurry down..." At his side, Aaron, his valet without a hand, saw that he was in a good mood and immediately tentatively urged Darcy Anjou.

Darcy Anjou looks lethargic, as if nothing else in the world can pique his interest. "What am I going to do?" he asks.

His only taste is blood and violence.

The only time he felt alive was when he enjoyed the blood and violence.

He had no interest at all in Omega, and even wanted to stay away.

This time, though reluctantly forced by the queen to marry, he did not even want to look at his nominal partner...

Darcy Anjou was even less keen on the Omega after repeated warnings from the queen that he could not use it as a toy or a bluff.

He didn't even bother to show up for his own wedding reception.

As far as he could see now, he had made the greatest concession by allowing the Omega to live in his house and share the same room with him.

He wanted to go down to her and mark her... It's wishful thinking.

"... Well, Madame is the most beautiful woman in Emperor star. Don't you want to go down and see for yourself?" Aaron was left speechless by the question and was left trying to cheer up Darcy Anjou about Luna Van.

Darcy Anjou is less than enthused: "Boring!"

In his eyes, all the Omega in the world are no different. Aren't they all two eyes and one nose?

"But... She needs you to take care of her. Where will she sleep?" Aaron couldn't say anything. He felt like he couldn't control the psychopath's mind.

Without thinking, Darcy Anjou said: "What's the point? Just go down there and let Ann Eddie Brown sleep anywhere she wants."

He treats his companion as if she were a dog.

Aaron was speechless. "..."

Darcy Anjou, seeing him disobedient, immediately made a deep frown, gave him a cold stare and ordered: "Don't go quickly?"

Aaron was startled, afraid of provoking the devil, and hurried downstairs to perform the difficult task: "... Yes, yes."

After Aaron left the huge study, there is only one person Darcy Anjou, Darcy Anjou watch the video to see complacent, is planning to raise a hand to change the video.

It was boring. Watching this video too much actually bored him.

He didn't like it anymore.

He was trying to change the video, but somehow slipped and switched to the mansion's security camera.

The surveillance automatically focuses on the location of the living inside the mansion, as housekeeper Eddie Brown and Anna Jones take Luna Van upstairs.

Darcy Anjou was about to turn off the surveillance video and was left stunned when he casually looked up at the projection to control his brain.

His eyes fell unexpectedly on the face of the strange Omega.

A single glance made his body tremble, and even his pupils tightened in an instant.

Omega's skin was still visible in the projection, as smooth as fine silk, and his long brown hair hung in a slight curl over his shoulders.

She was as delicate as if she had stepped out of a painting, but there was a bitter coolness about her.

Darcy Anjou's cold and clear looks like she's been carved out of ice. Darcy Anjou's scalp suddenly went numb and she felt hyper.

It had been a long time since he had been this excited, and even the gory and sadistic videos had made him feel less happy.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, he only looked at the Omega one time, he felt his whole body like a general electric, strong excitement...
