Chapter 42Beatrice and the rest of them had gone out of the Mansion where the party was taking place to receive fresh air at the back of the Mansion.Although they were many people at the back, drinking to their satisfaction, it was not as crowded as inside the Mansion."The Lord seems to be having fun," Mel said as she sipped her wine gracefully."He has to have fun dear Melinda. After all, he's the Lord and not some man that sits on his couch all day doing nothing. He works hard for the land, he should have fun when he wants to." Yuan said."What have you been up to Beatrice? Grandpa Pablo had been so worried before he left for Nalish.""I have been learning how to fight and I am so good at it," Beatrice said, with a smile."Good at what? Fight?""Fighting with the sword," Beatrice said and Melinda nodded with an ohh...look."Aunt was also good at the sword. Everyone in our family was good with swords. Well... except me who doesn't fancy it." Melinda said with a roll of her eyes."
Chapter 43The woman charged towards Beatrice grabbing her arm and twisting it back.Beatrice might have lost her powers but she was not stupid to let her face fall in a fight.With one push she gave the woman, made her stumble back and Beatrice slapped her again.The sound resounded in the whole backyard and the woman stood still, her hand on the cheek Beatrice had slapped.Looking up, Beatrice's eyes widened to see the woman's eyes turning yellow.Melinda stood up as well.Knowing that her sister had lost her power, Beatrice could not fight an Omega who looked like she would tear her apart once her crawls were out."Enough!" Came the thick deep voice which got the two women looking up to see the Lord with the Duke and a Councilman.Beatrice looked up and sighed.It was the Lord and he was not looking happy at all.He had a frown on his face as his eyes met hers and he looked away."What is the matter?" It was the Councilman that walked in front of the Lord and the Duke of Nalish."I
Chapter 44"Ha!" She gasped as the Lord pulled her to the bed and hovered around her.She knew it was him cause she going to smell chocolate lavender.He smelt nice as if he had just come out of the shower.Biting her lips to see the little candles had begun to shine.She frowned and looked up at the Lord whom she could now see due to the candlelight that was lit."How come...""What are you doing here?" He cut her off, placing a finger on her lips to see her eyes widen."Hmm?""I asked a question, Beatrice." He said to have her blink at him."I'm not doing anything. I was just tired and I was just going around and watching some things when I decided to come to see what you were doing."Lies. Her inner mind scolded but she remain unfazed."Hmm? Really?" The Lord mumbled, his small finger that rested on her lips had begun to trace its way down her shoulders making her tense when it went down slowly to her wrist and back to her shoulder."Milord?""Hmm..""I want to relax my arm""Aren'

Chapter 45On the south side of the land, dead bodies and the stench of blood could be smelt everywhere as dead bodies were lined up and heaped on the top of the hill and the valley."Are you sure this wasn't a massacre? For the witches who had ran out of Viscoria after my cousin Wolfarine had chased them..this could be them warning us that they have arrived." The Lord or Nalish said, as he scrunched his nose for the blood was new.This was to show that the massacre had not been long.It was just thirty minutes ago or more than the time the maiden had come to the town to tell what she had seen."Are you sure she is not one of them?" The other Councilwoman asked, making the Lord of Nalish frown.He had left the woman in the Mansion only to get back from the meeting of the council to hear that she had left the Mansion to see someone.What was she doing on the hill to have seen the mysterious man she said kill this person?"We will have to ask some questions, she must tell us what she ha
Chapter 46Beatrice got to the mansion sooner than she had expected and when she did..she was welcomed by many faces that she didn't know.They were three girls seated at the front seat of the Mansion, drinking tea as they chatted away."Good day Ladies." She greeted them with a smile to have them look up and smile back."Good day, dear and who might you be looking for?" The other asked."I am the Lady of the house. Is my sister Melinda keeping you company?" She asked to see the other widen her eyes."Ha! yes. She had gone inside earlier to get something but had been there for over thirty minutes now. I tried to get in the Mansion but it turns out it was locked from the inside." The other said, making Beatrice frown as she walked to the door.Turning the knob of the Mansion, it opened and she walked inside after shutting the door close."Melinda! Olivia!" She called but got no answer.The Mansion was full of light and she could see everywhere but no one was in sight.Going up the stai
Chapter 47The evening breeze was soothing to the nerve as Beatrice sat on the chair outside.She had taken her bath and now she was waiting for the Lord who had said he would come to see her.Wondering if he was going to come as she had heard from Herbert that the council meetings took time."You should come in Milady. The wind is too Cold, I'm afraid you'll catch a Cold." Olivia said, and Beatrice shook her head."I will wait for the Lord here, you do not have to worry about me catching a cold. I'm as cold as they came." She said, and the lady hesitated before leaving her to herself.She looked up the balcony of her friend to see her seated with an older man and an older woman with another man..she recognized to be a Councilman."Beatrice." With the sound of his voice, she jerked up and turned around."Milord." She called, smiling."Look at you smiling when you should be crying. You almost died." The Lord said, walking closer to her.He raised his palm and placed it on her forehead
Chapter 48It was already night when the butler of the house stood up and walked outside the Mansion.It was time he made known to the Lady of the house what and how things were like when her parents were alive.He had watched her grow into a beautiful and well-behaved lady and he did not doubt that she was ready to listen to what he had to say."Grandpa Pablo?" He turned to the voice and his eyes widened.What was she doing out here in the middle of the night?"Why are you there Beatrice?' He asked and she shrugged."I was so tired to sleep and decided to come out here to get a fresh breeze. Didn't you see me when you came out?" She asked and he shook his head."Are you unable to sleep?" He asked, walking to where she sat and taking a seat on the marble tiles."I keep having this strange nightmare and some memories. They keep coming and they're so scary." She said and he sighed."I have to tell you something. I have to give you something." He said and she looked up at him.Beatrice k
Chapter 81Walking into the Mansion with the Lord to where the sword was dropped.Beatrice picked up the sword."Are you ready?" The Lord asked, his lips raising to a smirk."I am. Are you ready as well?" She asked, a smile forming on her lips as she watched him.He nodded, picking up a plate that was on the other table."Your hand. Raise your hand Beatrice." He said, and she did as she was told.Picking up a spoon, he spooned out a little of the ash and placed it on her palm."How does it feel?" He asked, after a minute pass."It's hot... it's getting hot, so hot." She mumbled."Don't throw it. Leave it there for a while. Bear the pain." He mumbled."It hurts." Beatrice blinked, a tear leaving her eyes to rest on her cheek."So...little." The Lord whispered, raising his hand to clean the tear that left her eyes."It hurts and you're mocking me!" She glared at him.The Lord picked up the sword and placed in on her palm."Without dusting the Ashe, try to unsheathe the sword." The Lord
Chapter 80"Aren't you the prettiest Luna?" Beatrice giggled at Herbert's words.She couldn't contain her happiness at the moment.She never knew the party would end like that.She had never expected the Lord to crown her Luna in front of everyone present.Was this what the party was for after all?"I'm so happy for you Luna." Yuan gave her a tight hug."Thank you." Beatrice mumbled turning to the other person behind her."Alpha Zane." She greeted and the nodded."How have you been Luna Beatrice?" Alpha Zane greeted with a slight bow."I have been well." Beatrice said, smiling at the man.Come to think of it, he was the very first person to know she was the Lord's mate cause she could recall that time she and Melinda had come to the Tea Party they Lord had assembled only to be dragged to the Lord by the man."You have a lot on your mind." He chuckled. A low chuckled that made him more Handsome.He had a little hint of the devil, and it made him look like the Lord in some way."I've al
Chapter 79Beautiful smiled as they Lord led her to the dance floor. Bringing her dress that touched the floor to her sides so she could dance well, her hands were wrapped around the Lord's neck while the Lord's hand around her waist as they danced to the beautiful rhythm of the song."No one is as beautiful as you Beatrice." The Lord said and she chuckled."And no one is as handsome as you Milord." She said for him to nod."You didn't even have to say it Beatrice, i know."That smirk on his face made her shook his head.Narcissistic!"Did you mix the item you had wanted to mix Milord?" Beatrice asked to see the Lord nod."How unromantic." He ticked his tongue."I have done it all, they only thing left is for you to grab the sword and unsheathe it. It will be magnificent." He mumbled, pride laced in his voice."Ahem!" Someone coughed beside them, making they couple look behind them."Milord. Lady Beatrice." A man bowed.The man Beatrice recognized as Sir Raymond."Will you like to ma
Chapter 78The carriage rode into the field of the Mansion and they both got out."Milord." It was butler Declan who walked towards them with his head lowered to the ground."What is it Declan?""It was Sir Raymond Sire, he dropped a letter. It is an invitation to his ball party.""What is it about?" The Lord asked, a frown forming on his head.He didn't want to busy himself with measly parties. He had something important to do."It is for the Lord's of the four land." Sighing, the Lord rubbed his forehead and nodded, as they walked into the Mansion."I can go in your stead Milord." Beatrice said, running his back.Seems like the Lord was indeed tired."Will you now?" He smiled and she nodded."Okay, stay with Herbert and Yuan when you get there. I will meet you there late." The Lord said for Beatrice to nod as he let of her hand and she walked up the stairs to prepare for the ball party.An hour later and she was dressed and ready to leave for the party.Getting into the carriage, s
Chapter 77"Now, enough of this talk. What did you come to find today?" Father Jude asked, dropping the rake on the floor as he went to the small bowl that had water in it to wash his hands."The Lord found another method to unsheathe a sword." Beatrice said for the man to nod."There is no method use in unsheathing a sword Beatrice. It depends if the sword is ready to be unsheathe or the sword doesn't belong to that person." The man said."It does belong to me." Beatrice said, her brows knitting to a frown.Base on what she had been told, the sword belonged to her.Everytime she touched the sword, it glimmered with power and light."So what do you want now?' She asked."Ash from the fire side of the church.""Is it the cedar wood or the olive wood?" The man asked.Turning around to see the Lord outside the church who had not made any attempt to leave where he had been standing outside, she sighed and walked out of the church."Milord.""They wraiths in the church won't let me in. Do
Chapter 76Picking the sword and dropping it on the table, Beatrice sighed as she watched the Lord take off his shirt.They were about to test something about the sword and he was taking off his shirt?Why was he taking off his shirt? She coughed, shaking her head as she turned around not to see him."You've already seen everything sweetie. Why turn around?" He asked, and she rolled her eyes.She had almost forgotten that the Lord was nothing but a perverted man with a perverted mind."I'm done." She turned around, hearing his voice."What are we doing now Milord?' She asked, picking up the sword that was taken from the Barbarian Leader. The sword that had chosen her, where she was yet to process the whole thing.The sword that had been handed down from her mother to her had not been unsheathed yet and now she was about to begin another session with another sword."Are you okay?'"Are you sure it choosed me? Some things aren't what it seem." She answered to see the Lord smile."Are yo
Chapter 75When the got to the Lord's mansion, it was already afternoon as they had stopped at many places for the Lord to deliver something to people."Hmm...the grasses has grown." Beatrice said, looking at he grasses that had grown at the sides of the Mansion where the horses were allowed to graze."Declan and some other men had gone to Nalish to help Niklaus deal with something in his mansion. There was a problem of a witch and the council had been questioning a lot of his maids and butler and Declan wanted to help." The Lord said, helping her down the carriage.Stepping down Beatrice nodded, looking over to the huge field one could see from where she stood.Unlike the sides of the Mansion, the field was the very same as it had been days ago when she had left."Did you bring the sword?" Beatrice asked."It is already inside" The Lord answered, gesturing to the Coachman to leave.The Coachman sighed, thanking God that his master would not be going any other place or else he would n
Chapter 74"Why couldn't he get an assistance for himself dear sister?" Beatrice asked."Are you being happy for me? Or yoire being jealous dear sister?" Melinda glared."Why not? I'm so happy for my sweet sister right now but why would I be jealous? I have someone better." She said the last part In a cough to hear Melinda scoff."Acting rude?""How could I not? When my dearest only sister had not spoken to me for a while now in peace...but when it involves the Duke.. she's smiling like something never happened at all." Beatrice snorted."You should be happy I'm even talking to you." Melinda retorted."Oh..how glad I am." "Keeping things from your only dearest sister." Melinda mocked, sarcasm laced in her voice."Well..... didn't I say sorry already?" Beatrice shrugged."And on what part did I hear the sorry? Saying sorry rudely doesn't count! Some sorry doesn't come from the heart! And do you know what hurts...is that you've only just met the man, whereas I was and always have been
Chapter 73"Well, according to what i was told." The Lord began.."I began to talk at the age of One, faster than many other children. My fangs grew and my eyes darkened." The Lord said.Beatrice's eyes widened and she chuckled."You were indeed stubborn Milord. Right from birth." Beatrice mumbled."Niklaus was the only one who turned out to be so slow. At two, he still couldn't talk and his fangs didn't grow out. Aunt Miralle was so worried about him...even Zane grew faster than him but Niklaus turned out to be a strong one.""Didn't you say he couldn't even beat Alpha Zane?" Beatrice asked."If it were a real fight, he'd kill Zane before the fight begin. He's fast, agile and a cold-blooded vampire with a little amount of wolf blood in him." The Lord said, making Beatrice's eyes widened the more."He's a Hybrid?""Not a full blown one. He's a cold-blooded vampire and has a little wolf blood in him. His father is my father's uncle.""Did you two get along? How did he become the Lord
