Selene reconsidered asking the maid directly; she needed to wash the clothes, but she wasn't ready to face the maids yet. She hasn't forgotten what happened those few days, and she wasn't ready to reminisce about what happened.”Is there a place I can wash this cloth?” Selene asked the maid.“Of course, my Queen, if you need to wash your clothes, we will gladly do it because that's our work, but as long as you remain our superior, we will take care of your needs before you ask for it,” Penelope explained.“Oh,” Selene didn't know that. “Okay. Please wash this cloth for me and dry it. I need it today.” Selene said to the maid.“Anything Milady. I will be quick to prepare your bath.“You don't have to. I will bathe myself." Penelope didn't protest and silently bowed before leaving the room with the cloth in Selene's hand.***Selene walked out of the room with the cloak in her hand, with her two maids walking behind her back. She wanted to give the cloak to the maid, but she wasn't sure

“Someone made her fall. I saw the maid try to get in front of her, and she lost her footsteps because"“Enough Selene. Those are just your speculations. You don't have any proof to back up your claim.” His cold voice rang into her ears. This is not the same man she met a few weeks ago.“If you want to save her, then find some proof to back up your claim or beg the Queen to release her.'“You should go, he added. Rayne sat down on the couch and began to go through the parchment again. Selene was dumbstruck; he was looking at her with hatred, and she didn’t even know why.“Thank you, my king,” she managed to say before leaving the room to shut the door behind her.Her small feet made their way out of the room towards the corridor. She knew more than anyone that the Queen would never hear her plea.“Moon goddess, please save her. I don't think I will be able to forgive myself if she dies.” Selene thought in her mind, dreading her mind. She could still remember the way her maid looked at

Rayne was left with no choice right now since the physicians were already attending to her, yet there was no sign of her waking up. Drake walked closer to the woman; he placed his hand gently on his wrist, holding it. Drake closes his eyes to see if he can see what has gone wrong with her. “Drake, what is wrong? Were you not able to see anything?” Rayne asked in a worried tone. Drake releases Selene's hand, shaking his head before turning to look at the King. “I couldn't see anything about her. This is my first time seeing something like this since my years of existence,” Drake confessed, his brows furrowed with confusion. He was confused because this had never happened, and with this, he wondered who she was. Though she hadn't seen the king's true Luna, this woman here was giving him some weird kind of energy that he had never come across before. “Are you saying she will not wake up, or are your powers deteriorating?” Rayne taunted

Rayne, after attending to court matters in the courtroom, went back to his chambers. Instead of going to his room, he strolled to Isabella's room. Despite trying hard not to think about Selene, he couldn't bring himself to not think about the girl. He couldn't forget her dark eyes, which looked at him with hatred. If he had known that Selene was too emotional, he would have tried to look into the matter, but he didn't even know he would have to pity her like this. "Rayne,” Isabella slurred as she walked to the center of the room to meet Rayne halfway. But when she saw the stern look of Rayne, she stopped in front of him, inquiring. “What is wrong?” “Why did you kill the maid, Isabella?” Rayne asked in a clipped voice. He was still angry at the fact that Selene could break down like that in front of him. Isabella laughed nervously before wrapping her arms under her bosom. "She poured hot tea on me,” Isabella said with a satisfying expression on her face. “And that is why I'm su

“How dare you touch what is mine?" Rayne rephrased his question, walking towards them in his long strides. Aron turned towards him to refute his claim when a punch suddenly landed in Aron's face, and Selene covered her mouth in shock as she gasped. “I warned you not to touch what is mine, Aron." He said again, ready to punch him as his insides boiled in anger. But he stopped himself. He looked at Selene in the cream dress. He had noticed most of Selene's dresses always exposed her cleavage because they were too tight; maybe it was high time to get her a new set of dresses. Rayne looked at Selene calmly. She looked like a kitten right now as she stared at him. He didn't mean to scare her, but he didn't even know when the words blurted out on his lips. He clicked his tongue, and Aron rubbed his jaw. “What is that for? I saw a leaf on her shoulder and was trying to take it away.” Aron tried explaining his cause of action towards Selene, but deep down, he knew that was not true. Rayne
