Eira’s POV“I’m not aware of this, Your Majesty. It must have escaped the maid's mind, ” he answered, bowing his head as he looked at his feet.“It escapes their minds to bring food for the miraculous healer? Do they even have a brain?” This time, it was Selene that snapped at him. She was undoubtedly angry and her tiny voice was as chilly as her brother’s.“Your highness, I—”“What did you think your punishment should be?” The Vampire King interrupted, totally unimpressed by the Head of Staff’s prevaricate and pretentious acts.“Your Majesty..” He muttered, still not admitting to his guilt. He looked like the Vampire King was punishing him for a stranger. If anyone sees him at the moment they would think that he was innocent and he was punished falsely.The more I looked at his pretentious face, the more contempt I felt for the likes of him.“You are still not admitting? Do you want me to have you beheaded?” The Vampire King asserted in a cold voice, his crimson eyes flashing like a
Eira’s POV“Nothing, ” Dolphus mumbled and stood up, I reluctantly followed him.“Well, aren't you going to explain how you and the Vampire King happened to come to the courtyard together?” I asked, raising my eyebrows at him.“Well, aren't you also going to explain what the Vampire King's blind sister was doing here?” he snapped and I frowned at him.What the hell was that? Didn't I tell him yesterday that I'm trying to make Selene come out of her shell?“I told you not to refer to her as the Vampire King blind sister again,” “I will call her anything I want. Why the hell did you even care!” Dolphus yelled and I flinched.“Because she’s my patient and also my friend!” I shouted back at him, raising my voice so he could know his faults.Dolphus looked at me coldly and shook his head at me, “She’s not your patient. Reagan is. And you are just treating because we have to get the Atelum plant, and she’s also not your friend because she's a vampire. Let that settle in your thick brain.”
Anika’s POV“Your name is now.. Tatiana. You are the first female member of the Rebel Wolfe brotherhood,” The masked man declared.“Tatiana? What about my last name?” I whispered, holding back my discomfort.“Adolph,” he muttered in a cold voice.Upon hearing the last name, I felt a sense of familiarity to it, but I couldn’t place where I had heard it from.“When will she be able to walk?” His grace asked Claudia and I turned my attention to her too since I was also curious about when I will be able to use my legs.“In the next two weeks, she should be fully fine,” Claudia announced and I almost groaned out in pain.Two fucking weeks? What am I supposed to do then? Sit and sleep on this stone bed?“Why aren’t you taking the medicine?” His Grace mentioned, indicating the greenish content in the bowl and I instantly looked away. I regretted my actions immediately because His Grace forced my mouth open and poured all the content of the bowl into my mouth.“Feed her something for that wou
Eira’s POVIt's been a few weeks since the Vampire King assigned the five maids to me and we never had any issues. Well, except Celeste. She's the only one that seems to have a prideful aura when talking to me or Dolphus, she always felt like we were beneath her when in reality we are currently her masters. Since she never did anything outrageous, I always ignored her and went my way. I wasn't always at the courtyard, I've been going in and out of the Palace to get the medicinal herbs for Selene’s eye treatment. The days have been very busy and strenuous.If I wasn't busy with the medicine herbs, I would be at Selene's Palace gisting and accompanying her. Even Dolphus and I hadn't had time to talk and settle our differences.After that day that he left me in the pavilion, we haven't talked much. I made it a habit to go and find him when I'm less, but it just seems that he was always not around. No matter what time I go to look for him, I wouldn't meet him so with time I just stopped.
Eira’s POVI quickly cleaned my cheeks. “Tell Amber I will be out soon, ” I replied and picked myself up from the floor. That was when I remembered I hadn't been to Selene’s Palace and it was almost noon. She must have been worried that something had happened to me since I always go to her Palace every day.After washing my face and looking at the mirror to ascertain that my eyes didn't look as swollen as I thought, I came out of my room.“Miraculous healer, ” I heard Amber’s voice and I nodded at her.“What is it? Is everything okay with the princess?” “Yeah, the Princess is okay. She just asked of you because you haven't come around, so she asked me to come and escort you,” Amber replied and I nodded.It was just as I had guessed. Selene was worried about me.She’s probably the only one that’s concerned about me in the whole Palace.“Let’s go, ” When we got to Selene’s Palace, she wasn't sitting at her usual spot and Bianca was also not around. I guessed that she was probably hav
Eira’s POVImmediately after Selene’s order, the maids paired with one another and started slapping each other. It was so hard that I could feel the pressure from where I was seated. I almost pleaded for them but I remembered that if this chain is not broken right now, this is how it will go on until I leave.The slaps continued for at least fifteen minutes until one of them fell on the floor with a scream.“I- I will talk, Princess. I will say what really happened,” the maid that just fell to the floor because she couldn't take the hit anymore and her face was already swollen.“Good, let her stay and take the rest to my brother. Since they can't tell me what really happened, they should be able to tell my brother. Their king.” Selene sneered. “No, Princess, we will talk. Please don't take us to His Majesty, we will talk, ” all of them started pleading but she turned a deaf ear to them.“When I wanted to listen, you all refused to talk. So now, I also didn't want to listen. Take them
Eira’s POVI looked up at the Vampire King and squinted my eyes at him. I can’t believe that he even ordered Esme to be brought here too.“Your Majesty,” Esme greeted, giving a curt bow.I glanced at her and saw that her eyes were now different from how it was when she left the courtyard. It now looked normal.“Yes, explain what happened today in the Miraculous healer’s courtyard,” the Vampire King ordered, shifting his gaze at Esme.Esme looked at Celeste and the other maids who were kneeling and she straightened her shoulders. “Celeste asked me to do her portion of work but I was very thirsty. So, I told her I can’t and that I have to go and drink but she wouldn’t have that. We started arguing and then the miraculous healer heard us and came to settle it. She allowed me to go for lunch and also told me to take the day off,” Esme explained, bowing her head. “How long has this been happening?” “Since a week ago, Celeste knew that I have little resistance to hunger and when I get to
Reagan’s POVWhen we got inside, I saw Carla laying on the bed with some herbs on her tummy. “Alpha King,” she greeted, attempting to stand up after she noticed my presence. She looked happy and I couldn't help but feel disgusted at her smile.If it wasn't because of Amoux and the fact that she’s Eira’s sister, I wouldn’t be here. I didn’t know whatever she did to Amoux that made him care about her this much, but it won’t work on me and I wouldn’t care about her or the pup in her belly.To me, he’s just an offspring that would carry the family line if Eira was really dead and my death is certain. If not, I will discard him.“How is she?” I asked the healer, who just came into the room. Totally ignoring Carla’s happy face.“I don’t know how stressful she had been some weeks back but it's not comfortable for her child. I advised that she shouldn't stress herself anymore for the child’s safety, ” The Pack healer disclosed and I frowned.That day when I had found out that I had sex with h
