She wished for a prince charming at a young age. But after marriage, she realized no prince is Charming but a princess killer. Her face was blank as she looked at him. It was emotionless as a rock. It felt like he was seeing his sister in her.But instead of blush, he saw fear on her face which made his heart tighten. Looks like he got a lot of redemption to do. Her face was scaring him. He does not know what to do anymore. Zaros now want her to be normal.These were the kind of people were. They would push away the woman who came into their life. But when the woman wants to give up on them, men suddenly find that they love her. And again make her emotions, feelings, and her thoughts a mess. It's the same for Adira and Zaros now."I have something to say," she said. Determination and strong resolve were evident in her eyes and voice as she spoke, which scared Zaros."Go ahead, Adira," he said. Even though he said it, something in his head says that it wasn't going to be good for him.
"I saw the hate and the truths that need to be seen and heard. So… I don't want to put my self-respect down for you. As you are not worth it. So… we will act as a perfect married couple in front of everyone." She said with a straight face. She could see the crack in his face. Yet she didn't care. She suffered more than just facial expression cracks than him."As for sex, it's an obvious no. You will not touch me even if you are horny. You are free to find someone else for your pleasure," She said. She would be glad that he was having his fun outside. That way he would be blamed, not her.Zaros was surprised at this. He thought she would be jealous if he was with someone else. But she wasn't and even saying it's fine with her. How could she say it? Weren't women the most jealous creatures?"When we are in the bedroom, we will act like strangers, and outside we will be the best enviable couple in the world," she said to the other one.Okay… he can say she was worried about the pact and
Meanwhile on the other side….Zaros felt like he needed to start breaking the ice between himself and his wife. He was waiting for his wife who went to bring dinner for him.He continued to pace in his room back and forth anxiously as he waited for her to return. He doesn't know where to start and how to start. He was afraid of his wife's rejection.Adira was spaced out as she instructed the servants to arrange the dinner for her husband. She has been acting like a good wife for the past few days in front of everyone. Even her abusive husband was doing nothing that could hurt her. Instead, he was being all lovey-dovey with her. She doesn't want to trust him for the second time.For some reason, she refused to believe that it was because of the ring that he has been abusive. She felt there was something more to it. And it's him. Even he didn't look like someone who lost his memories.A person who lost his memories wouldn't act like that. He was not curious to know the things in the pas
"D-did I r-re-really say that?" he asked with disbelief and utter shock in his voice.Adira narrowed her eyes at him.Was he shocked?She doesn't know. But her gut feeling said that he was acting."Yes. You did, My Lord. And please don't forget the deal between us," she said reminding the thing between them.Zaros wanted to break that damned thing but his wife wouldn't be even with him without that. He sighed sadly."I wish to eat with people. Why not join me at least for once?" he almost begged her."I see. From next meal… I will make arrangements according to that. For now, have food, My Lord," Adira said hell-bent on denying having food with him.Zaros sighed and started having his food with her on watch. For some reason, the food felt tasteless and more like poison as he gulped down.Adira heaved a relieved sigh seeing him have his food. It was better this way than having food with her. He might not say the taunts out but may taunt in his mind. She felt like this was another on
Zaros also attended the court proceedings to see how his brother-in-law will solve the mess that surrounded his sister. When he saw his wife he sprinted towards her and sat beside her not caring if it was a female section or not."What are you doing?" Adira asked Zaros feeling shocked."Sitting beside my wife," he said with a boyish grin that made her heart flip."I can see that. This is the female's section!" she yelled lightly in his ear."So?" he asked with a confused look."So? You are asking me so! You shouldn't sit here," she said with an annoyed expression."I will sit wherever my wife sits. If you don't want me to sit here then come with me and sit beside me," he said seriously."Seriously? The session will start soon. Don't mess here," she said with an annoyed expression."I won't do anything. I will just sit beside you silently. If you want me to put a finger on my lips then I will put it for you," he said with a wink making her blush."Just shut up," she said and looked ahe
"The pact which you Vampire Elders claim to be sabotaged by our future queen is saved by her. She saved Vampire King and avoided the almost happened war between the two races. She avoided the bloodshed, wars, and possible chaos between the two races. All I see are some groundless claims from the Vampire side," Lord Gary said as he joined the drama from the Werewolf side."Then Lords from the Werewolf race shall know that even our Vampire King didn't make any fuss about all the accusations that were put on him about unfair allegations were thrown on him because our future queen fell sick!" Elder Evans pointed as he yelled slightly as he drove the conversation into a heated path."Nobody said a thing that meant that Vampire King abused our princess. When that happens, we all know that you wouldn't be standing with your heads intact," Lord Gary said making them lower their heads in shame. But before they could say something Lord Gary continued further."Maybe the Vampires shall take resp
----Adira and Zaros were walking back to their chambers.Adira was surprised to see him apologizing. Because she didn't expect that from Zaros. To begin with, he was a very proud person. He would never bend his head for anyone or everyone just because he was wrong.Now he did it for her suffering. She was in a predicament about him. Adira doesn't know if she has to be happy or sad.Everybody can say he was apologizing for her in the courtroom.Was he really serious about her?She doesn't know. He was a confusing man. But today... she had a different opinion on him. He seemed sincere and serious with the words he said.He didn't blame anyone and even tried to flirt with her!This man! Place, time and the situation would never matter to him! He was always in 'I-am-in-a-simp-mode'! Hmph!She needs to teach him a lesson. This will not be good. Only she knew how embarrassed she was back then."I know I am handsome, but you no need to stare that long at me. You can do all the staring after
"Am I that handsome? You cannot even take your eyes off me. If you want, I will remove this towel too," he whispered in a low voice, making her shudder at his sexy voice."What are you doing?" she asked shakily."Giving a good view of my well-maintained body to my wife," he whispered again."Shut up!" she tried to yell but it came out as a whisper from her throat."Fine," he said and bent his head lower to her lips. Pushing her back into the soft mattress, he hovered over her and claimed her lips. Before she could understand something, he already started to kiss her.The kiss was slow and smooth and it was just…. Melodic to her body and her heart. With every move of his lips, her body shuddered with the pain of wanting more of him. Her body wants him more inside her but more than wanting him to claim her lips.Her body was already moving in sync with his actions. It's as if her body knew how to dance to his magical touches.Before she could comprehend, her mind turned foggy. Her body
