Aria povI must have been cursed. What is wrong with me right now? Princess Thaisa hasn't done anything bad to me, yet I dislike her. I feel like I hate her but hate is a strong word. For someone, I don't even know. It had been a few days since she had been here.Princess Thaisa has been nice to me, she gave me a gift along with the rest of the royal family and also respected me as prince Zane's fiance. Yet why can't I stop comparing her to Jenny? They were both different, Thaisa was not as evil and manipulative as Jenny was. Although, her feelings for prince Zane were as clear as day. Strangely I couldn't blame her for being unable to hide her feelings for prince Zane. Somehow I understood her and I hate it. Understanding her still wasn't making me like her. I wish I had an actual excuse for disliking her. Something that makes me mad, something that wasn't about prince Zane."Lady Aria. Are you okay?" "Lady Aria!" Brunhilda shouted. "Yeah," I snap out of my thoughts and focus on l
Aria pov"Ugh, I feel so hungry." Where was Erika? Is she putting me on a fast without my permission? Not like I ever go on fast. I'm a werewolf with a big appetite. Starving myself equals death. I still don't know how some humans are able to do it. They called it dieting. But to me, they were slowly killing themselves. Slowly letting themselves wither away. I couldn't blame them though. If I was human, I might probably do the same thing. I was a bit chubby were I was younger. I'm glad I had a strong werewolf gene if not I would have probably remained that way. Self-confidence wasn't an easy thing. I have seen people struggle with it, I wasn't an exception either. There was so much involved in growing up. If only being an adult was good enough to put an end to all of it. But I knew that it wasn't. With each age, new challenges. If you don't overcome one. It hunts you as you grow older. It sticks to you like a stubborn glue that refuses to come out. It was no different from your own
Aria pov"So there was no catastrophe today?" I asked Erika."No, my lady. Princess Thaisa's servant was well-behaved. Nadia must have reminded her that this is Esterial and not Survnial. I'm sure that she reported what had happened to the prince." "Okay." I gaze at the clock that was hanging on the wall. I have spent more time talking with Erika than I usually do at night. It somehow felt like I was looking for something to do. Anything. Like I was trying to just pass time. I should sleep. Erika had taken so much time in the kitchen the other day, because of princess Thaisa's servant, Cecilia. She was making unreasonable demands. Cecilia was trying to boss everyone in the kitchen, demanding that no one should attend to Erika until princess Thaisa's demands have been made. Her demands were close to impossible. She was asking for meals that couldn't be found in Esterial. Erika told me that she held herself back from slapping Cecilia in the face. Instead of wasting time by partaking
Aria pov"My lady there is no need for you to carry the books lady Brunhilda had given to you," Erika said."What do you mean that?" I asked.Was there something I wasn't aware of? Usually, Erika didn't act like this, it could be that either prince Zane or King Kaida have once again organized an event I wasn't aware of, as much as I like slacking off on any free day I'm able to get, lady Brunhilda lessons were the perfect distraction for me these days. Her lessons help me to stop thinking so much about stupid things.Things such as prince Zane and practically anything that had to do with him. I have been getting good at Blicht language. Lady Brunhilda has been feeling a whole lot like a proud teacher. All it took was for me to see prince Zane having the time of his life with princess Thaisa for me to come back to my senses. I haven't set my eyes on him ever since that day. I would love to say that I no longer think about him at night but I still do. I still wait for him at night, los
Aria povThere was an annoying pounding on the door. I tried using my pillow to block off the noise by wrapping it around my ears but it wasn't working. Who on earth was that? Was the palace on fire? Even if that was the case, couldn't it find another time to set itself ablaze? I was really tired, I needed to sleep."Go away!" I scream out loud at whoever decided that disturbing my sleep was a good idea. My eyes were finally shutting without me feeling tormented by any thoughts of prince Zane. This was the first time someone had been so daring to knock at prince Zane's door like this. It could be that this person was desperately in need of help, or was in some sort of danger. I don't care about whoever it was that was behind that door. Their life and mine was different. Whatsoever mess anyone had tangled themselves with. They should leave me out of it."Go away!" I scream again. Louder than the first time. My voice only encourages this person to continue knocking. The noise was so
Aria povThe looks on Thaisa face show that no one had ever been kind enough to tell her that she wasn't needed. I don't know if she had lived her whole life feeling like the whole world love her because I hated her in every way. Yes, this was prince Zane's room but I slept in here, so it was also my room. "Leave!" I said again. "Now!" "Why should I listen to you? I know that you feel nothing for him. You act as though my request is unreasonable. If you leave prince Zane, you will be compensated awesomely by my father. Other than that I can get prince Zane to talk to his father so that you wouldn't be punished in any way. Her words made sense, but I didn't have a say in my relationship with prince Zane. Thaisa was giving me the perfect chance to escape from this relationship. The chance to say that I don't want to be prince Zane's fiance anymore. I should take it. "How much is your father willing to pay?" My words were empty. It wasn't coming from my heart. "How much do you want?"
Aria povI lay down on the bed with my eyes shut. Pretending to be asleep. I could hear water running as prince Zane took his shower. The light in the room was off. Everywhere was covered in thick darkness, I could barely see if I opened my eyes so I left them shut. If I could use my werewolf vision I would have been able to see clearly. Prince Zane move around the darkness as though it was filled with light and he could see without any issue. Either prince Zane knew every single inch of his room without Aidan and Nadia help or there was something prince Zane was hiding. He lay down on the bed, after putting on his night ware. The moment I felt him adjusting himself to a comfortable position. My eyes were shut tight, I was waiting for him to drive me away. A few minutes pass and there was still not a single word from him. Was he asleep? Perhaps I should turn around to check. But what if he was still awake? Does it matter? It was not like he could see me anyway. If I could make myse
Aria pov"Stay outside. They are still sleeping." I could hear Erika's voice from outside the room. What was going on? It sounded like Erika was arguing with someone outside."I have an early appointment with prince Zane." Princess Thaisa argue."I don't how you do things in survnial. But here in Esterial, the servant doesn't disturb the master when he's busy. As you can see my prince is still sleeping with his fiance inside. No one is allowed to disturb them, not even you princess Thaisa." "I will like to see you stop me." Princess Thaisa snarled at Erika. "My princess, Erika is right. As you can see we are all waiting outside until we are allowed to go in." Aidan said. Those that mean Aidan and Nadia were outside too? The thought of them being outside made me feel relieved that Erika wasn't fighting Thaisa by herself. Thaisa could easily force her way through Erika if she wanted to. Because she was human. I turned to the other side of the bed and faced prince Zane. He was still
