Suddenly hearing Selena Kensington’s voice, both sides that had been confronting each other on the scene suddenly paused and simultaneously turned to look in the direction the voice ca from.
Especially Sterling Norwood, at the mont when Selena Kensington’s voice sounded, the strong aura about to burst from him suddenly halted.
His gaze instinctively turned towards the direction where Selena Kensington spoke.
Selena Kensington and Timothy Jennings appeared on the path beside the waterfall.
The sunlight trickled down softly, casting onto Selena’s face, making it hard to discern her expression.
Clearly, nothing about her had changed, her face still bore that sa smile, yet Sterling felt a significant shift in Selena’s aura.
She had beco calr and more rational, and more captivating to him.
Looking at Selena, a sudden sense of fear arose in Sterling’s heart.
Having entered the Celestial Vein, Timothy has likely told her everything, so what will she choose?
Will she choose to flee out of fear, or decide to stay with him?
Uncertain of Selena’s choice, Sterling harbored both anticipation and fear in his heart.
Yet, he instantly appeared beside Selena.
When Timothy saw Sterling appearing by Selena’s side, he silently stepped back a few steps.
"Sterling."
Selena tilted her head to look at Sterling, calling him once more.
Sterling slightly lowered his head to look at her.
From the reflection in Sterling’s eyes, Selena could clearly see her own figure and the tension in the man’s eyes.
She suddenly let out a light laugh.
"Good boy."
She soothingly stroked Sterling’s head, her tone soft, carrying a hint of coaxing.
This gesture was one Selena often used to comfort Sterling in the past.
Whenever Selena made this gesture, Sterling would usually obediently allow her to "ss around" on his head because she always wore a gentle expression, her eyes extraordinarily bright.
But in the eyes of others, especially the Sutton family, this scene was incredibly shocking.
To them, this gesture by Selena was equivalent to her having subdued The Beast Lord.
Dean Sutton and Sarah exchanged a glance, reading the shock in each other’s eyes.
The relationship between Selena and Sterling seed deeper than they had imagined...
At the very least, ordinary people certainly dared not make such a gesture.
Sterling indulgently allowed Selena to ss around on his head, his nostrils flaring slightly as a refreshing fragrance seeped into his nose.
His brows furrowed ever so slightly, the deep aning in his eyes slowly intensifying.
This fragrance...
Sterling abruptly looked up, his gaze locking onto Selena.
This fragrance emanated from Selena, stemming from her blood, which had a deadly allure for Sterling.
Upon catching that scent, his bodily functions beca unusually active.
Much like an addict, he seed unable to resist the scent that’s transmitted through Selena’s blood.
"What’s wrong?"
Selena blinked, a bit puzzled.
"You..." How co you sll so fragrant...
Sterling didn’t voice the latter part of his words.
Because he realized the issue.
His gaze turned towards Timothy standing behind Selena.
Under Sterling’s gaze, Timothy gave a slight nod.
"Her Heavenly Master Bloodline has awakened."
No wonder...
He suddenly slled that overwhelming and heart-invading fragrance.
Because Selena was the chosen sacrifice, her blood held a significant allure to Sterling, even causing him to unleash primitive instincts.
Previously, the Heavenly Master Bloodline in Selena was sealed, so it didn’t affect Sterling much, and he could restrain himself.
But now the seal was lifted, awakening primitive instincts in him, making him sowhat restless.
Luckily, Sterling could now well restrain himself, so he didn’t lose control in front of Selena.
Selena had intended to say sothing more, but suddenly her stomach let out a ’rumble’ and ’gurgle’ sound.
She raised a hand to her belly innocently and blinked at Sterling, saying, "I’m hungry..."
Staying in the Celestial Vein without food or water for almost three days, although Timothy’s compressed biscuits had replenished a bit of energy, it couldn’t overco three days of hunger.
Upon hearing Selena’s hunger, Sterling furrowed his brows slightly.
Disregarding anything else, he was about to take Selena away.
"Wait a mont."
Holding Sterling’s hand, Selena walked towards the people of the Sutton family.
Lea Dutton and Hope Norwood ca up first.
"Sister, are you okay?!"
Both looked at Selena with worry, finally relaxing after seeing no sign of injury on her.
Selena smiled at them slightly, "I’m okay, sorry to make you worry."
Then she looked towards the grandfather and grandson of the Sutton family, "Thank you both this ti."
If it weren’t for Sarah Sutton’s guidance, Selena might not have found Timothy, nor learned about those matters.
Dean Sutton gently stroked his beard, "Miss Kensington, there’s no need to thank us. Guiding those with the Heavenly Master Bloodline to the Celestial Vein has always been our duty."
Dean Sutton continued, "I suppose, Miss Kensington, you already know everything you wanted to know. Then, regarding my previous question, how has Miss Kensington considered it?"
Does she wish to beco the key to open Pandora’s box and unleash the devil, or does she want to be the lock that seals the devil?
As Dean Sutton spoke, Sarah Sutton also looked towards Selena.
Sterling, standing nearby, also slightly lowered his head upon hearing Dean Sutton’s words, looking at Selena by his side.
Seemingly waiting for her answer as well.
Selena slightly curved a smile, "Mr. Sutton, your question is based on a previous assumption."
After saying this, she paused and glanced at Sterling beside her.
"But our reality isn’t like that at all."
So, the key or lock is unnecessary.
Dean Sutton’s previous question assud Sterling was the devil locked in Pandora’s box, and she was still the sacrifice to appease his fury.
Becoming the lock ant she extinguished The Beast Lord’s fury and atoned for the celestial clan’s sins.
Becoming the key ant she hadn’t extinguished The Beast Lord’s fury, and the celestial clan’s sins continued.
But now, everything was different.
She wasn’t a sacrifice, but the wife of The Beast Lord.
In Ancient Tis, the Fell Beasts demanded utmost loyalty and care for their partners.
They wouldn’t betray the other, and would even give the other ample respect.
Even the powerful Great Demon would give their wives equal status to themselves.
They would cherish, protect, and respect their wives.
Offering all beautiful things in the world to their wives.
So the question Dean Sutton posed doesn’t hold anymore.
For from the mont Sterling fell in love with Selena, the so-called curse beca irrelevant.
