Eira’s POV“Wait, the said bodyguard, is he big and bulky with black hair?” I asked, describing Dolphus and she nodded.Ah?Who did Dolphus get to the Princess’s Palace?As if listening to my thoughts, Amber replied to me.“The Princess came to check on you earlier but you were fast asleep. So she asked your bodyguard to go with her.“Ohhh, ” I exclaimed and Amber nodded again as we made our way to the princess's palace.“Around what time did the Princess come to my courtyard?” I asked again, calculating how much Dolphus would have suffered in my stead.Even though I know that Selene is nice and harmless, I also know that she can talk people’s heads off.“Some hours ago. Four hours to be exact, “ Amber replied and I drew a sharp breath.Four hours!! Ahh!When we got to the Princess’ Palace. I couldn't help but increase my pace, leaving Amber behind me since I already knew the way from there.Immediately Dolphus spotted me, he frowned his eyes and spread his hands out in helplessness a
Eira’s POVI was awed by the supremacy Selene wields even though she was blind, her aura and ambiance weren't deemed at all.At the moment, she looked so magnificent and powerful I almost high five her.“I wasn't aware that she was the miraculous healer at first, I thought they were intruders, ” Cullen justified, slowly proving his pointAll this while, I was just staring at Selene and Cullen and listening to their conversation because I want to know how Selene intended to solve the issue.“So what if you didn't know she was the one? Why can't you ask who she was? I'm the blind one, not you. If your eyes aren't useful. I can ask the soldiers to remove it for you.” Selene threatened in a cold voice.“It won't repeat itself, ” Cullen answered back with a grim voice and looked at me strangely. But this time I couldn't help but say something.“Of course, it won't happen again. I wouldn't be coming here again after this, ” I said, returning his look. I didn't know that my words would aggr
Eira’s POVI sincerely didn't want to hear it from the maids or the guards in the Palace because I knew that the incident must be a very heart breaking one for Selene. I want her to slowly let go of her demons because that's the only way she can overcome her social phobia.“I will tell you some other times, okay?” She replied after a while and I voiced my reply for her. I told her she could tell me anytime she feels comfortable and I wasn't in a rush.“I think the food already got cold, ” Selene said, indicating the meat that the maids brought when Dolphus left and my stomach started gurgling. That was when I noticed that I haven't eaten anything since I woke up and I was caught up with everything that I had forgotten to eat.I looked at the meat on the stools and checked if it was still warm but it wasn't. “Should they bring another?” Selene asked, after seeing that I didn't answer for a while.“I think I will just eat it like this, ” I answered and took a bite from the meat but I c
Eira’s POVWhat else is the Atelum plant used for if not the Atelum curse? Does it have another use?I blinked at the Vampire King, totally unaware of whatever he was saying because I've always known that the Atelum plant was for the Atelum curse. “Does it have any other use?” I asked him, but he ignored me and continued looking at me as if I didn't utter a word.“When will you start treating my sister,” the Vampire King asked, and I blinked at him again. Is that the question that I asked him? “As soon as possible,” I replied in a grim voice.Two can at this game, if he didn't want to answer me then I also wouldn't give him a definite answer.“When is “as soon as possible?” “Uhm, I really can't say because I'm still getting close to her, so I can't say for now.” I replied when I saw that my actions were already annoying the Vampire King.“Okay, then. After you successfully treated my sister, I will tell you my other request before I give you the Atelum plant,” he asserted slowly.I
Eira’s POV“Me? Protect a Vampire princess? Did you know how many enemies the Vampire King would have? Most of them might even be waiting for her to just take a step out of the Palace and then execute her, ” Dolphus argued and I suddenly felt a headache pooling in my temple.Why did I feel like Dolphus is thinking too much about it?“Can’t you just discard that thought?” Dolphus asked but I shook my head. “Of course not, I can't, ” I quickly answered.“So how did you intend to go about it?” “Well, if Selene agrees, we will just disguise ourselves as males and leave. What could possibly happen?” I let out after a while and Dolphus stared at me in shock.“Think about this very well, Eira, you can't be willful here. This is not your Pack and we don't know anyone here.” Dolphus advised and I nodded.“Don’t worry, I will think about it again and I also won't do it if Selene is not interested. It's all for her own good,”Dolphus sighed heavily. “When did she grow on you so much that you w
Reagan's POV“Amoux, do you think Dolphus and Eira are safe in the monsters’ land?” I asked, for the millionth time since they left and I was sure that even Amoux was already tired of my constant nagging.“Reagan, how about we send someone to check? It won't be totally bad if Eira knows that you actually care about her, ” Amoux answered, implying again that I care about the healer.When she left, I had thought that it was just some silly attraction that would wane with time but I've missed her so terribly that I don't know what to do other than asking Amoux repeatedly whether they are okay.I don't know why I felt agitated and also they went to the monsters’ land, not just anywhere.“I'm asking because of Dolphus, not Eira, ” I denied as I had been doing and Amoux rolled his eyes at me.The past Full Moons weren't as horrible as it has always been, and in those times even though I had quarantined myself because of the illness and pain, It wasn't as extreme as it has always been. Which
Reagan's POVNo matter what he says, this bitch still has to go. She should be glad that I didn't have her killed immediately and that was because I was thinking about the probability that she might be carrying my pup.“Eira left her sister in our care to look for the Atelum plant for you, you can't just exile her sister when she's away, ” Amoux interjected, making me recall how terrible yesterday's action was.Yes, while Eira was risking her life for me in the monsters’ Kingdom I was here fucking her younger sister. I've never felt ashamed and apologetic all my life.I looked at Carla and saw that her face was filled with tears, but I couldn't bring myself to feel any sympathy for her. “At least, wait till we confirm that she's not pregnant with your offspring. Then you can decide what to do with her, ” Amoux said again.“I don't want to see her, put her in the dungeon or something, I don't want to see her roaming in her fucking house before then.” I declared, and Amoux lifted her f
Eira’s POV“Of course, what did you want to discuss with me?” Selene asked me, looking up at me all serious.I instantly became tongue-tied, now that I’m facing her, I didn’t know how to tell her that about the idea I had confidently told Dolphus last night.“Selene, would you like to go out of the Palace?” I asked, focusing my attention on her. I watched as she gently removed her hands from her mine and knotted them in her laps.“You don’t have to, you can refuse if you want to,” I immediately added when I saw that my words made her uncomfortable. I wouldn’t ever do what will make her sad or comfortable because of my own personal ideas. She’s my patient and I’m after her well-being, but if she’s not interested, there’s nothing much I could do about it.“Eira, I don’t know.” She finally let out, I could see tears slowly coming out of her eyes. “What is it, Selene, you know you can tell me why you don’t want to go out,” I told her, bringing her soft hands again into my small ones.
