Hey sweethearts.
Congratulations. The journey of Zeki and Zella comes to an end. I don’t know how you feel about them. But if you feel a bitter-sweet pain in your chest while reading the last chapter then let me assure you, I felt it too. I wanted to cry while writing it because saying goodbye to both of them was hard. I am in love with both of them and don’t know how to let them go.
If you have reached here then do let me know if you like it or not? Will you recommend it to your friends?
And most important… Will you leave a review on the main page and give me those beautiful diamonds?
Please do that. Because we authors need your support.
Don’t forget to read my other work: Oops! I Married A CEO By Mistake.
Please let me know if you are interested in a sequel where Noah James will be back.
Love you loads
Lisa Salman_author.xoxo.EDIT : Hello readers. The sequel with Prince Noah James is out now by the name of His Silver Eyed Luna on Goodnovel. Please check that out. It can be read as a stand alone.
It was after midnight when she entered the kitchen. She wanted water, she could not stay thirsty for long. Pouring water from a jug she felt a movement at her back. She stopped cold. Her parents were supposed to be sleeping at that time.She turned around slowly, a little scared, her heart beating faster.Then her lips broke into a bright smile, “Grandma!”Grandma spread her arms and she lunged towards her to hug her tightly, “I knew you would come to meet me, Grandma. I was waiting for you.”Her grandma had passed away last evening and she knew she would visit her. They all did!For a final goodbye!“What are you doing here in the kitchen?” 14 years old Hazel asked innocently. Her grandma was smiling. She was her only support system against her abusive parents.“I am making Vanilla shampoo my dear.” She smiled while caressing her bald head. “This time in bulk. It would grow your h
Hazel came down running, she got up late and was now getting late for her school. Her aunt Ivy Bernard was humming while working in the kitchen.Fortunately, Uncle Alec was not home. It used to be easy for Alec to slap his wife or his niece. He used to get drunk at night and beat the sh*t out of his wife. While in the morning he could not bear to see Hazel’s face.He also used to believe that Hazel was Satan’s daughter and slapping her, throwing away her wig, cursing her would bring lots of good luck to his home.He and Ivy were expecting their first child. But day by day he was getting more abusive.When Hazel was about to close the door behind her, Ivy came running after her and silently slipped a banana in her hand.Hazel’s eyes brimmed with tears. Ivy was a darling.Taking a deep breath she started walking to the school. She had just turned sixteen with still no hair on head and no periods.It had been one
“In the beginning, we won’t overburden you, dear. But you have to act responsibly. If you see any royal person, saying something or doing anything. Just consider yourself blind, deaf. You need to respect their privacy. Your eyes should be cast down.” Amanda, the head maid was telling her everything. She was polite but very firm.Hazel was excited to work there. For her, this was something new.“Right now you can look around the palace. Just be careful. And do remember your limits.” Hazel nodded and then went to her small room leaving her door ajar.This was her bed, her room. No one could touch her, abuse her. She felt happy and wanted to celebrate. She missed the school today but by afternoon Alec handed over a pack to her. It was a brand new wig of low quality, and still in a bob style.Before coming here she had asked Ivy to stay strong. She was like an elder sister to her, they both hugged
“So, why you wanted to see me?” Noah was sitting behind his office desk. His office was more sophisticated than Mr. Jacob’s. Which was understood because of being a prince.“I wanted to thank you.” She said while her eyes were cast down. For some unknown reason he wanted her to look at him.He just smiled. “My father has taught us to always appreciate people who struggle and work hard. I just helped a little, otherwise it’s you who deserve the appreciation.”She nodded still looking down. She seemed nervous.“Is there anything else you want to say Hazel?” Hazel just shook her head.“No Sir.”“hmm.” there was an awkward silence in the room.“I think I should take my leave.” She stood and bowed her head before turning around.When the guard opened the office door for her, she did not exit but stayed there trying to decide.&ldqu
Today was her school and for some unknown reason she was feeling heaviness and a little pain in her lower belly. But she chose to ignore it. She could hardly wait to get done with the school.When she was having lunch with Lily in the school cafeteria when two boys approached them. One of them was tall and blond while the other one shorter, a little chubbier.“I think it’s harder to resist me today.” Lily whispered in her ear while pasting a fake smile on her face.“Can we sit here?” the taller one whose name was Dustin asked them. Lily nodded, her smile turning a little smug. She was sure both of them were there because of her.“I am Dustin and he is Tom.” He introduced with an easy smile. “And you must be Lily and Hazel?”Hazel nodded with no clue about why they were there.“So why you people are here?” Lily tried to chew her lower lip a little trying to make a pout at the s
Tonight she was helping to set the table for Royal family dinner. Amanda had asked her to help the other two maids and also observe them. When the table was done then she was given a dish of lamb roast to offer the Royal family members.With eyes cast down she was serving the dish to the Royal family. Noah was also there along with the King Lucas James but there was someone who caught her eye in the first glance. The Royal Queen Maria James.She had seen the king occasionally, strolling in the palace. The couple had appeared several times on TV. But she never got the chance to see her in real.Maria James was strikingly beautiful, her features so angelic that Hazel could not take her eyes off her face. But for some odd reason she looked sad. Or grief-stricken.Another thing about the family she noticed was the absence of elder brother, the Crown Prince. Both princes were allowed to face media until they were five. But after that King had stopped the
A blanket was laid for them, where piping hot dinner was served. Zek asked the staff to leave them alone. Hazel settled herself on the blanket without having any clue how Zek would eat his dinner. Her heart stopped beating when he leaned forward to open the foot pads. Placing his feet in front he started to stand straight. “Zek!” Hazel hand went to her chest. “What are you doing?” “It’s ok princess. I can stand for about a minute or two.” With that he took small steps, his arms out stretched. Hazel immediately came to his side and guided him to the blanket. He sat with his back rested on a big roll pillow. She served him on the plate. They kept eating quietly. After dinner ice-cream was served. Hazel opted for Buttered Pecan flavor with crushed toffee and pecan pieces while he went for Vanilla flavored topped with cookies and cream sauce and Strawberry Boba. When their ice-cream was finished she started licking her bowl. Zek groaned, “
Prince Noah was in the garden with Alicia and they both seemed tense.“Why did you call me my prince?” Although Alicia knew why she had been called.“Alicia you do know very well why I have called you.” Noah looked pointedly at her face.“I am afraid milord. But no, I don’t have any idea why I am here.” Alicia did not want to argue. But this meeting was bound to happen. She had to get over with it because she did not have any choice.Noah had to take a deep breath with frustration, “Alicia. At least go and see him. He is not letting any of us near him. My father and mother both are disturbed. He doesn’t want to go for the treatment. You were always there with him. Even in war fields. Then why not now?”“Prince Noah. With due respect. Last time you did tell me that even the best doctors have given up on him. They are not happy with the reports. Please accept it. But nothing much can b
