Reborn as a Mind-Reading Empress
Falling for his warm touch despite his usual coldness, she loved him only to be disappointed and betrayed in the end. When love turns to darkness, it festers to be poisonous and consumes the soul. The naive Arabella evolved. . . . “Thank you for becoming my wife,” was her cold husband’s last words before he died, coupled with a smile that had never before graced his lips. Not on their wedding day. And not even at the birth of their only child. Emperor Ferdinand, someone Arabella loved so much, killed their son. She became a villainess and vowed revenge for her beloved son. For a decade, she used everything she could to make Ferdinand pay. Until finally, he fell to ruin. With her revenge complete, Arabella's life soon ended with her dead husband right beside her. But fate wasn’t done playing with her. All of a sudden, she was back two decades ago right after their wedding. Was it a curse or a blessing? It doesn’t matter. Because there is only one thing she needed to do. “I will ruin you in this lifetime too,” that was her hateful promise to herself upon realizing she was reborn. And in her second life, Arabella was bestowed a gift to uncover the truth. Who was wrong and who was right? Only time will tell.
I Wish You Fall in Love Too
From Alwin's thoughts, dragons' senses were apparently so much stronger than humans, especially about anything related to their mate.
Thus, Ferdinand would be able to sense Arabella's presence even from far away and even smell her scent. He would also feel it if she was in grave danger.
And they were apparently very particular about their mate's scent. Now she understood why Ferdinand kept saying he loved her scent.
It was also why Raymond thought last time that even Alwin could get burned if he dared to have touched Arabella's hand without Ferdinand's permission since dragons were especially more possessive of their mates.
Especially these days since there was apparently difficulty in finding their mates. It was because there were almost no females left among the dragon race. This difficulty was what necessitated the oracles. The gods themselves intervened.
'So, it was why they come to Valeria and find human mates instead?'
Arabella decided to ask Ferdinand about it later.
