Estelle rolled from edge to edge on the large king sized bed sleepily for while before her lashes reluctantly parted open and she yawned, covering her eyes from the beaming sunlight.As she sat up, a sigh escaped her lips again when she the other empty side of the bed. River was not around yet, what was happening?She gently pressed her forehead, feeling a migraine forming in her head. Gosh, she was feeling so weak and lightheaded too.Her eyes caught the note on the side table and she laughed seeing Naina's familiar ugly handwriting. ' I'm feeling really sleepy now. Wake up, eat well, I'm tired of your sick ass' the note read and Estelle sighed again, recalling the memories of the previous night. Unconsciously, her face turned red at the earlier events of what happened, even though that was what she has always wanted, she couldn't believe it had almost finally happened.And Lair? She really hoped he was fine and it wasn't something so critical as that yellow eyed man had emphasi
" Breakfast, Luna," her maids would call her but she'll skip." Luna, it's lunch time." They'd say again and she'll reluctantly stand up to go to eat just a few grains and a little portion of whatever meal was served." It's dinner time, Luna. Please come down for dinner." They'll specifically say this time because of the meagre amount of food she had ate all day but instead, she'll skip, plunging herself into the bed with that novel she'd found in the library." What do we tell the Alpha when he comes back to meet a bony structure as his Luna?" Prisma would hiss worriedly and frustrated." Hush. Don't say nonsense now." Antara would scold her and she'll shrug.Estelle slightly raised her head up from the book in her hands and sighed when she saw a shadow behind the door, they'd come for her again even if she went all far away to hide in River's study." What now?" She had asked when whoever of them that was behind the door refused to say anything. " Luna, it's Lady Lana. She–"Est
" River." Estelle called the moment she entered Lair's suite and her eyes caught that gorgeous face she hadn't seen in a while. He was talking intently to the Beta but immediately raised his head towards her when he heard her voice." Hey doll," he called too with a smile as he watched her run towards him like a baby whose father had just returned from work. Estelle giggled when he lifted her in his arms like she weighed nothing." I missed you." She smiled and his eyes which seemed dull lightened up almost immediately and she smiled wider, hugging his wide chest with a sigh of relief." Gosh, she had missed this scent so much." She thought as she sniffed his nape and giggled again when he kissed her neck as he seemed to have grown some stubbles and they tickled her.Surprisingly, she pulled away from the hug and stared at his face. He had really grown some stubbles and his face had gone a little lean, giving him a slightly different look." You became lean." His eyes darkened as
Since Jesse was a doctor, she thought he had to have a library of knowledgeable books about different kinds of ailments and probably, their cures.His wife saw her when she entered their house again even after just leaving with the Alpha." Luna," the woman called, quite surprised." Hello. Hm, you wouldn't mind if I check on Jesse for a while, would you? I really didn't get much time to earlier ago as the Alpha was quite in a rush but I suppose he's also quite busy now." Estelle said, gesturing at River through the window. He was just a few strides away." Of course, Luna. That'd be my pleasure." The woman bowed." Please, feel free. I'll leave immediately I'm done." Estelle said before hurriedly getting into the adjoining room as River looked quite hurried when she just saw him. She had to find something important or rather, an important clue before they'd leave as she wasn't so sure if she'd find any opportunity to step out of the palace's gates again and neither did she think
" Where's Neil? I've been looking for him." Kaileyn asked with a frown on her face while Elliot bowed before nudging towards the dungeon. Her frown deepened instead." What is he doing there?" She asked again." The Beta's busy." Was what Elliot only replied and Kaileyn hissed when she noticed the guard's body signs that obviously said he wasn't ready to say much.Kaileyn went to the dungeon, her eyes searching around for Neil but he wasn't he sight. Her ears straightened up when she heard muffled sound of groans from the other side of the dungeon and she rushed there but her eyes immediately widened when she heard a familiar voice. " Yes, Beta. I swear, please forgive me." She heard and at the perfect recognition of the voice, her features expressions changed. Her eyes now laced with a tinge of fear. She made to go forward, to stop Neil but it seemed like her legs had been fixated to the floor from fear.That voice....the owner of that voice was undeniably her personal guard. T
Estelle ran back to the palace and straight up to the bedroom where she hid herself under the quilt, her breath sounding heavy that she had to palm her nose and mouth as people hundred meters away could definitely hear how loudly she was breathing but then, when she started to feel suffocated, she removed her palm from her face, now digging her face into the pillow.She pulled the quilt off her body again, sitting up in the bed and chewing her fingernails, fear and nervousness crawling all around her skin and giving her goosebumps.Lair jumped up from the bed; That certainly means her blood really had an effect on him but she just didn't have an idea if it was a good effect or a bad one, she didn't know and it was giving her a mad scare. Nothing must happen to Lair because of her carelessness of else she wasn't going to forgive herself.Still very restless and unable to act normal, she jumped up from the bed and left for the living room where she plonked on the couch, her breat
In a flash, a few days had gone by, five days actually.Estelle sighed when she saw her husband's suspicious gaze on her again." Just tell me exactly what it is." He said softly but she only flashed an innocent smile at him as she blinked sweetly but the man just shook his head with a short heave.Estelle sighed. She had really been behaving suspiciously these past days. Why won't she? Lair was as fine as ever now and she had found out her blood seemed to be one special substance. Lair actually fell into a deep unconscious state after that night and had just regained consciousness earlier in the morning but she still hadn't gone to see him.Hell, she was so scared. What if he actually wasn't sleeping and had saw her that night? What would happen when people find out about such absurd thing? And R...river? She thought with a sigh as she stole a short glance at the silver haired man who was actually staring at her but she immediately looked away and she heard him chortle in that
There wasn't a tear nor a smile on her face as she dragged her bags out with a very firm and unchanged look in her eyes this time. The maid who had been following her around had widened her eyes in confusion when she at first saw the fury Naina used to return to her room but seeing her now with bags and luggages....got her confused.This....was the middle of the night. Where was she going? " Miss, please, what are you doing? I can't allow you to go anywhere like this. Please let's go back." The maid pleaded from behind as she tried to catch up with Naina's hurried movement. She was quite surprised and impressed at he human's quick strides too but there wasn't the time to think about that now." You wouldn't be able to make it through anywhere when it gets darker because of the heavy climate change so why don't you just wait till the day gets bright again before deciding on what to do, Miss? Please," the maid was still calling after Naina.Surely, the guards at the gates weren't
