The walk was a silent and moody one, with a maid who walked fast ahead of her master who was sauntering behind. The middle of his forehead was knitted to a frown, with his eyes looking downwards that was barely facing the direction he was going. Rather than being pissed off with her or what she has said, he was really bothered that she could be terribly mad at him. Azalea's brutal words to his ears had stung truthfully in his heart, that as much as he hated to admit its validity, it wasn't as great as hearing the words directly from her.She had wanted to treat his wound which wasn't such a big deal for her, as she just looked around for a substitute herb to use I stead. The young prince was still scared to his stillness of his entire body, which she had decided to act ignorant about and just grind the herbs she wanted to use. The instant that she had put some of the herbs on the surface of his wound, he shrieked like something bad had hit him as he struggled to pull his arm away f
His face was so close to hers, that she could barely feel her breath anymore. Like her head and brain was waiting for something to happen, her eyes spontaneously closed tight as she felt his face too close to hers. His face was barely an inch in front of hers, staring at her pretty closed lashes that kept twitching in restlessness, when he suddenly diverted his mouth to her right ear."I think I would like to start training now without any further complaints. Since you have said I should learn defend myself, I shouldn't be lazy at all," he whispered. Immediately she heard that, her brain jolted out of its expectation illusion as her eye lashes parted open. The opening of her eyes to come in contact with his pretty smiling face, tugged a frown around her cheeks and face instantly.Even the look he had on his face looked so innocently clueless, that she was frustrated to her guts if he had done that intentionally. She rolled her eyes and just pushed him aside to walk to nowhere in par
Azalea had quickly prepared Ayden for the day from preparing his bath water as soon as possible, which he had reluctantly stood up from the bed to take a warm bath with. Just as he was done applying some soothing oil around his body, Azalea had come behind him to bring his robe from where she had hung it. Even if he had exuded a lackadaisical and languid attitude, she struggled the way of his cloth around his arms to fit his body properly regardless of her small frame. She moved swiftly to his front to adjust every accessories and rumples on his cloth, as he watched her serious face from the elevated height of his eyes downward. It really looked like she was totally in for business. "Do I really have to go today? I mean we have not informed Hendrix about it, and those inflexible guards would certainly not let us into their house," Ayden tried to wriggle his way out of the situation. He definitely was not so ready that soon."I have sent a servant by master Zachary's name. She shoul
The tension that permeated the air between Azalea and Ayden was palpable, that she thought in her heart what she could say, to alleviate it. It was hard for Ayden to get rid of the sadness he was feeling, even if Azalea wasn't the one who caused it. They were sad thoughts that really hurt. Just right when they got to the crossroads that could lead to the palace, Azalea sighted Hendrix walking closer to where they were, and quickly called out to him. It was really a relief to see someone, who could probably be able to get Ayden out of his current shell. "Master Hendrix!" Azalea called out to him, as he looked around to see if his ears were doing the tricks, "Over here!" She further directed. The moment Hendrix eyes diverted to the direction Ayden and Azalea were approaching from, a beautiful smile tugged on his cheeks in accordance to the emotion he was feeling. It was so elating to see Azalea healthy and radiant, like someone who hadn't gone through so much in the past few days.
Dressed and robed around with an astounding peach dress that complemented her pale skin colour, her hips swayed left and right as she made her way to the chamber that was imprinted on her mind. For some reason, the route to his hallway looked unfamiliar to her, but her instincts worked her legs to the front of his doorstep. Without knocking, Eadlin's both hands pushed hardly against the sturdy door to barge in, which pounced her push back in fail, to indicate that the door was locked. Zachary who was just standing right by his door wondered what he had just seen, as he pulled open the bolt behind the door and opened it to see, who was rude enough to want to enter through his door without knocking.Zachary's mouth almost dropped open when he saw who was standing right at his door, other than whom he had thought it would be. Though it wasn't something so unexpected since she had come often before, but not after what Edla had told him about her, that he also confirmed too. "Hi. Brot
Edla who was so bored by herself in her room doing nothing much, decided to get herself busy by gathering every of her maids together. She had told them to get plain white pieces of embroidery clothes, and threads with pins they could use to make embroidery designs. She had them sit on the floor before her in the room and timed them to start a random embroidery design, that whosoever finishes first and has a beautiful design would get an expensive jewelry from her. It sure was so worth it, that the maids who were participating in the contest put the best of their efforts. Edla just watched their hands go fast with the pins in their hands, as they made beautiful designs of different colours and shapes. In her heart, she would have probably wished to know how to do that, but she was never keen to learning it when she was young and was being taught palace etiquettes. Many of the things her teacher had tried to make her know as a basic lady training, she sucked at them all. After sh
At the visitor's lounge next to queen's room, was where Etheldreda sat around the circular wooden table, and at her front across the other side of the table was Scarlett. The beautiful Luna to the Haystars family held in her right hand a cup tea, as she sipped on the hot liquid slowly with gentleness and elegance. In her heart to her mouth, were desperate and anxious words that she wanted to say, but was holding to her pause because Etheldreda had to do the speaking first. The queen was also sipping on her tea from the white porcelain gently, like someone who was not even ready to utter any word soon.Her beautiful lashed fluttered much in so much illustrious manner, that it would show how much she superseded the desperate Luna that was still opposite her. Scarlett cared less about their status difference at the moment, and how Etheldreda was being so overt about it, as her heart begged in frustration for Etheldreda to voice out her dearest opinions. She could no longer take the he
Azalea had woken up later than usual on the other side of the room, cuddled in warm plain covering that was starting to seep heat into her body. Remembering not much about how she had slept off the previous night, her eyes trailed around the room to search for Ayden, but he was not in sight. Just as she sat up on the bed stretching and yawning to her body tiredness, the memories of the dream she had in the night during her sleep came to her, the moment she pressed on her temples with her right hand. It was like a two sessional dream where the first one was a little bit perplexing, as she was standing at the front her old house in the wilderness. A woman standing from afar to where she was standing, beckoned on her to come closer, and the only thing Azalea could see in her body was her terrifying long nails dripping of red liquid. Like a compelling force of attraction, she was forcefully pulled to the woman whose face she still couldn't see, but only her bloody red lips with peeked
