#completed!!! In her second life, I want Sophia to choose the path she desires and live well and happily," Ragnar said to Adeline, who immediately burst into tears. "Then... what about you, Your Highness?" Adeline asked. Ragnar only smiled. “This is enough for me.” Among the many forms of love, Adeline had to witness the most genuine and sacrificial kind. That was, letting go. ~~~ What if, in truth, I was the cause of her suffering? What if my actions were the source of her pain? Perhaps it was time for me to let her go. There was nothing to be done. I must bear this burden alone. — Ragnar Clementine ~~~ And what if I choose these burdens? What if I choose you, every time, no matter how many lives I have? — Sophia ~~~ #war #kingdombuilding #secondchancelove #politics #multiplecouple #mutant #diplomacy #heartwarming This is the Sequel of: - Undressed by The Half-beast Prince (completed at Chapter 224).

A hushed silence fell over the crowd as Ragnar continued, his words ringing clear and resolute.
"Today, I declare the dissolution of our union. Witnessed by the citizens of Central Gamaaloth, I hereby sever all ties that bind you to me. From this moment onward, you are not my wife, nor my consort, and certainly not the queen of this kingdom, Sophia Mary."
His proclamation echoed across the courtyard, leaving an uneasy stillness in its wake. The gathered crowd exchanged murmurs and shocked whispers, unable to fully comprehend the gravity of Ragnar's decision.
The stone, usually inert and simply decorative, now seemed almost alive, pulsating with an unseen energy that caused Ragnar visible discomfort.
The wind picked up suddenly, growing strong and forceful, though not quite strong enough to sweep them off their feet.
