Chapter 145 The Falcon's Trial

• Ryan's POV
• The first step of my plan was simple: turn Selena and Charles against each other. Drive a wedge so deep that they would hate each other. Maybe even split them up for good.
• I started with Charles's curse, hoping to stir up fear or resentment in Selena. But no, she just shrugged it off. It was as if she had become immune, as if her happiness was the ultimate defiance of any curse. In fact, according to my spies, their bond was only getting stronger. They were inseparable, more like lovers than just mates.
