Andrea’s POVI slammed my fist hard into the wall, my eyes brimming with so much hurt than I could fathom. My eyes took in Phoebe's steps as she stalked away, her shoulders raised so high like she had won this. Letting out a huff of air, I ran a hand through my hair, wondering who exactly I was going to get her off my back. Was she dense or so stupid? She could ask for anything and I would hand it over to her, just in exchange for Eleanor's love. I felt pain when Eleanor did, I could feel her innocence streaming through me when I had taken it, and although I had stopped myself from treating her so differently, it had taken all of me to do so. Letting a wisp out of my mouth. I sauntered toward my office, raising the phone against my ears. “Phoebe” I spoke into the phone when she picked up. “ Come over” I counted down to the hours that she would get in here with different proposals in mind. The door cranked open announcing her presence and when our eyes met, all I felt was disgust.
Eleanor’s POV “ You should just die, you aren't needed anyway, whoever gets in touch with you ends up sad, so just die” those were the words that filtered into my ears as my eyes fluttered open to see a pillow hovering over me. A groan escaped my lips, as I forced myself up. “ What do you think you are doing?” I asked Phoebe, who had a smirk on her face. Her lips curled into a scowl as she dug saucers into me. “ Why….why…are you awake? You shouldn't have, from the moment you did, everything changed. Andre never hated me, he loved me. He was ready to do everything to make me happy but with your arrival, everything changed. So leave, get out of our life”I pushed back against the wall, but I just couldn't escape from her scorned eye. Everything moved in spirals as I tried to get away. She had flung the pillow to the side, scampering forward still. “ Help…!” I screamed out with everything in me as I tried to fend her away from me, her eyes soar with anger before stomping away, after
Phoebe footsteps echoed down the hall as she pivoted down to her room, her heart slamming so hard again it's ribcage. “ Ahhhhhh” she yelled out frustrated as her hands moved over the top of the table, flipping everything off it. Her chest rose and fell slightly at the same time a hand ran through her hair. “ I will kill you, Eleanor. I will make sure that you pay for everything, for taking Andre away from me, I am going to make you shed tears for the rest of your life” she swore before pushing herself against the wall, needles jabbed her heart. Elder Darren, who had been awakened by the sound of crashing items, stood up abruptly as he made his way to the source of the noise he had heard. His heart splitted at the thought that it was his daughter but he hoped that wasn't true. She wasn't supposed to be crying and she wasn't supposed to be here. The palace was where she was supposed to be, beside Andre. Pushing the door open, he was startled to see her leaning against the wall, stre
Eleanor's POVMy heart flipped as I stumbled backward, trying to get in what I had just heard, the realization that I was all alone and that this was truly happening dawn on me, my heart thumped against my breast cage as I sank to the ground, tears cascading down my cheek before yelling out, "Father no" I pleaded, my voice broke but I knew that I had to do this. " You cannot do this to me! I am your heir and I deserve some sort of explanation, you cannot toss me away like I mean nothing to you, you cannot sell me off like I am trash to you," I rebuffed what he had just said, my hands fidgeting, "My beta will take you to the Lycan king, your place is with him and you are never to come back here" he announced with a icy tone, before walking out with with his back turned to me, tears ran down my cheek when two hands held me up, yelling and kicking," Let go of me, my father wouldn't do this to me, I am his heir and I deserve better so please…" I fought so hard to be let go and when the
Eleanor's POVI leaned against the wall of the palace, taking one of my numerous afternoon walks that I had been told was necessary for me.I sniffed in when memories from last night came flooding in. I couldn't say for how long I had leaned my ears against the wall to Andre's room which was close to mine. I had slept off on the cold marble tiles when Phoebe moaning got worse and I was left dejected, everything seemed to be falling apart for me barely a week after being here. From being sold to knowing that all my mate saw me as was a breeder. I didn't know what I had done wrong, I had high expectations, and I have dreamt of my virginity being taken in the most beautiful ways, with flowers and candle lights by the side but it was nothing as I had imagined, he had kept slamming into me like all I was was some trash he was supposed to dispose his cum in." What the hell!" I screamed out angrily, raising my face upward, anger brimming inside of me as I was forced back to reality. I was d
Andre's POVTapping my fingers on the tablet, I absentmindedly ran my tongue over my lower lip, a chuckle escaping through my lips, “She ran?” I gritted my teeth with my fist clenched in anger, vexed at the nerves she possessed, “That wench had the nerve to flee from me, how dare she? How was it possible that she slipped past the gates, which are usually heavily guarded at all times? Who aided her escape?” I demanded an answer, one that Gavin had no answer to. I had treated her well, provided food, and a bed, and made her feel good, so how exactly could she escape? Or even think of escaping when all I have done was be good to her? Gavin sniffed, “I'll assemble a search party to track her down.”“No,” I refused, shaking my head, “Don't.” His puzzled expression told me he was struggling to understand what I meant. “She should return soon,” I extended my hands to flip over the hourglass on the table. Leaning back into my chair, I continued, “Where were the guards who were tasked wi
Eleanor's POV" Let go of me" I jabbed at the guard who held me firmly, stopping me from taking a step backward, I didn't want to see him. Andre. I didn't know what he was going to do to me. But I knew that he was going to hurt me, he always did although, not physically, but every single word he uttered out of his mouth pierced me, they tore my heart and pricked me. I had thought that the reason he was acting this cruel to me was because he probably didn't feel the mate bond but when I heard what my mother had said today, I knew that was far from being true. He knew that I was his mate, from the very beginning but he had treated me like trash, like he hated my very existence. I gasped out when I was shoved into the room, my heart hitching when I saw his foot that was wrapped in his Italian slippers that I knew cost a fortune. The room was drenched in the scent of alcohol, and it became stronger when I was lying just beside him on the cold marble tiles. His breath was raspy and I c
Eleanor's POVI clenched hard on my teeth, wincing out in pain when the doctor dabbed in a ball of cotton wool that had been soaked into the tiny spots in my arms. Andre had given orders that he didn't want me ending up with scars, so she was doing her best just to make sure that didn't happen.“You should abstain from any work for some time, at least until you are better. '' She had a smile on her face as she placed the scissors down before walking, wiping her hands on the towel. “Thank you” I whispered, standing up to walk out of the room when she asked, “You seem pretty close to the king, how are you related?’’ I swallowed because I didn't know what else I was going to say, Andre wouldn't want anyone knowing I was his mate. I was barely twenty and he had Phoebe. “ Just someone” I shrugged, that sounded better. A word and talk would be all over about how I was being mistreated by my mate. She stared at me through the mirror, a lopsided smile tugging at the edge of her lips. “If
