Loving The Cursed Werewolf King-Chapter 564: Ronan And Irene’s Bonding Time

Irene just stood still, unable to respond. It felt weird. She had never been praised before, so she didn’t know what to say. Arielle stretched out her hand again to hold Irene’s hand, so the girl would walk by her side.

Arielle then introduced the library as her favorite place even before she had a personal library that Ronan made especially for her. Irene had never seen a book before, so she didn’t know how to read or write.

It reminded Ronan that Arielle had also arrived in Northendell without being able to read and write, and now her abilities had advanced tremendously.

"You don’t have to worry. Here, we have very great teachers. You can read and write in just a few days," said Arielle while glancing at Ronan.

Ronan frowned, but he let Arielle do whatever she wanted. After walking around the Blackthorn Palace, Arielle invited Irene to visit the Whitethorn Palace where she spent most of her time to study.

Then, in the designated room, Aimee and Tania were ready to clean Irene’s body and help the little girl put on a warmer dress.

"Arielle, don’t go," said Irene while holding Arielle’s hand, not wanting to be left alone.

Aimee and Tania just smiled then Arielle asked Ronan to wait for her in the library for a while. She would follow with Irene after the girl changed into proper clothes.

Arielle chose a dark blue dress for Irene, then she helped the little girl do her hair by rolling each side of her hair into buns. Tania said that the hairstyle reminded her of when Arielle was a child. The princess really liked her hair to be tied up like that.

Arielle didn’t forget to add a pair of ribbons of the same color as the dress worn by Irene. Since wearing the dress and feeling the softness of the fabric attached to her body, Irene couldn’t stop touching the dress.

Tania, Aimee, and Arielle who saw Irene’s appearance, smiled because the child was really beautiful. Her pale skin and black hair as the night, accentuated her very beautiful face. Irene really looked like her mother, the late queen of Northendell.

"I want to show you my favorite place," Arielle said excitedly. She invited Irene to go to her personal library. Inside the library, Ronan had been waiting patiently for quite long. Then, William arrived with Arthur because Arthur wanted to ask to leave the palace.

The man had made up his mind. He would stay with Priest Louise and dedicate his time in the chapel where the late queen’s grave was.

Arielle arrived with Irene. Arthur, who saw his daughter’s appearance, was very surprised. Irene was so beautiful. The little girl was really similar to his late wife. It left Arthur speechless.

Seeing Irene wearing a beautiful dress with a pretty hairdo made Arthur very ashamed of himself. His daughter should have all of this from the first, but his negligence made Irene have to live such a cruel life as a slave.

Irene D. Blackthorn, his little daughter that became his light. On the day after being baptized, the werewolf kidnapped her decent life away.

"Father..." called Irene who then let go of Arielle’s hand so she could hug her father.

"My daughter, Irene," Arthur replied gently.

The man knelt down so he could see Irene’s face closely. Arthur stroked the softness of his daughter’s cheek.

"Irene, father wants you to stay here."

"But, father... I want to live with you. I don’t want to be separated from you anymore..."

"I know, but you’ll be happier here. I promise to visit you often."

"But..."

Arielle moved forward then held Irene’s shoulders from behind. "Arthur, I already told Irene that she will be staying here for the next few days. If she still wants to live with you in the future, Ronan will help to provide a new place for you two."

Arthur looked at his son who was sitting on the couch alone. Even though Ronan didn’t pay attention to them, he could still hear Arielle’s words. His hand reached out to touch Arielle’s three dragon eggs.

"How is it, Ronan?" Arielle asked, waiting for a response from the man.

"I will follow your decision," he answered simply.

Arthur thought for a moment then bowed his head to express his gratitude. Arielle immediately stopped the man’s body to bow down. He used to be a king, and it felt a little wrong for Arthur to bow down to her who was even much younger than him.

"I... will leave the palace right now because I will be taking Priest Louise’s carriage, which will return to his residence today," Arthur said, and Ronan responded with a nod of his head.

Arthur then crouched down again to speak to Irene.

"Irene, stay here for a few days and make up your own mind later. I will certainly visit you in the future, but I have to do so many things right now. Here, you can live with Arielle and have lots of friends."

Irene nodded weakly then waved her hand to Arthur who left Arielle’s private library. William also asked permission to send Arthur off.

"Oh, William," Arielle asked the man to come closer.

"Yes, Your Highness? Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Eum... can I ask your help to call Kael, Lazarus, Aimee, Tania, Lucas, as well as Priest Elis here? I would like to introduce all of you to Irene again."

William nodded. "Very well, Your Highness. I will be right back."

"Thank you very much, William. I’m sorry if I troubled you so much."

William shook his head then smiled. "Absolutely not, Your Highness... I would gladly do so," he replied.

A cough was heard. Arielle and William looked back to the place where Ronan waited. The man gestured for Arielle to approach him and didn’t linger with William. William, who was used to the excessive jealousy of the king, just rolled his eyes. He then asked permission to send Arthur off first. After that, he would call the people that the princess had asked for.

Arielle then invited Irene to sit next to Ronan. Ronan, who was surprised when Arielle suddenly placed Irene beside him, stiffened. The man looked at Arielle questioningly. He didn’t understand why the girl did it.
