RavennaA minute passed. Two. An additional three minutes. Five good minutes passed. Kalan still stood where he was, unmoving and neither speaking. His eyes stayed fixated on my sling and I could see the rage filling up his eyes. Was he angry that I got hurt? Or was he angry that I let myself get hurt? “...uh…” I started, jumping a bit at the way his eyes snapped up to mine. “Y-you can have a seat if you want to,” I offered, gesturing to the seat beside me where Nevan sat previously. He kept his gaze on me before turning them away from my face. His eyes went back to my sling, ignoring what I said completely as if I didn't just speak to him. But at the same time, he acknowledged my presence which confused me. His behavior was very confusing. I was sure he heard me quite well. He made it known that he did by looking up at me after I spoke, but when I tried to be nice and offer him a seat, what did he do? He ignored me completely like he didn't understand my language! How much disd
Kalan“...um…” I looked up at Ravenna. She looked a bit scared, trying to pick her words carefully to avoid any outbursts from me. It was cute, really. It was like she was handling a ticking time bomb and trying to detonate it. “Y-you can have a seat if you want to,” did I want to sit down? Yes. Hell yes. My feet were killing me and the alcohol was starting to take a huge toll on me. But did I want to sit next to her and risk myself doing something I might regret? Absolutely not.I also didn't want to be rude by moving the chair away from its position to avoid sitting next to her, so I just ignored her, focusing on her sling instead. Anytime I looked at her arm in that goddamn sling, it pissed me off to no bounds. I wished I could rewind time and never let this happen to her but I couldn't. I just wanted to take Ravenna with me back home where we can be more comfortable. Where I could pass out and sleep to my heart's content, but with how plastered I was, I really didn't trust mys
RavennaMy cheeks flame with heat. My breasts were pressing against Kalan’s hard chest as his thick erection pushed against my thigh, erasing all sane thoughts from my mind. His eyes fixed on me, he stuck his tongue out to lick his lip. My eyes follow every single movement his pink tongue made, making me think of indecent thoughts.“You caused it, you know that, don't you?” His deep voice reverberated through my body, sending tingles down my spine. I ‘caused’ what?! I barely did anything!I just innocently touched his face and skin!But I guess, judging from his hardened member nudging against my thigh, it was more than enough to get him incredibly aroused. It wasn't like I wasn't trying to arouse him in any way. I just couldn't help myself. His face was so delicate and mesmerizing that it got me curious, so I had to study it. I didn't mean to cause this, it was just peaceful and nice to look at! I admit that I got aroused, thinking of him in explicit ways, but he couldn't just blam
KalanShifting the wedding was the best choice. The perfect choice, even. It was the only solution I could think of at the moment without calling the wedding off. It not only favored me, but it also favored Ravenna too.It would give her enough time to heal from the trauma, and we'll both be in control of our thoughts by then. My raging boner almost couldn't make me think straight, but I was able to push past my hormones and make a solid plan. I looked at the bed. She seemed silent. What's going on? She doesn't want to postpone the wedding? Does she want it as quickly as possible? Or was there something else hindering her? Damnit, I should have asked her before coming to this conclusion. Now she would think that...“...okay..” it was tiny and soft. I would've missed it if not for my good sense of hearing.I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding and sighed in relief. Wow. It felt like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders as she said that. I hadn't prepared myself on w
RavennaThree days had passed since I was discharged from the infirmary. Today was Kalan's thirty-sixth birthday and it would have also been the day of our wedding if Kalan hadn't suggested postponing it till further notice. I was relieved at that as it gave me time to think and decide on what to do with him. He was too unpredictable and I really wanted to get to know him more.He has been treating me really well these few days we spent together. We went back to his apartment, and he took me shopping too, so I could pick specific outfits for myself. He bought a shit load of outfits and other things I didn't even need. To sum it all up, with the addition of my clothes, his walk-in closet was almost brimmed with clothes that belonged to me.He cooked meals for me, he was surprisingly good at cooking even though he revealed to me that he had stopped cooking in a while and ate out because he was very busy with the territory duties. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner were all scrumptious and I
KalanI rose, stretching myself out on the couch, grimacing at the sudden ray of bright light that attacked my eyes through the window. This is the only thing I despise about living in a condo. I stood up with a yawn, scratching my belly and making my way to the kitchen, to make some breakfast. Hm...today was my 36th birthday. Technically the day I will stop aging like a normal human. Not that I wouldn't grow older, but it wouldn't just be as regular as humans. Meaning I might still look like this for the next 20 years. Just like my previous birthdays, I didn't feel any different or special except that Ravenna was now around me. Her presence makes me feel like a completely different person.The clock on the wall facing adjacent to me indicated that it was nine o'clock in the morning. Ravenna was still sleeping. So, I decided to make breakfast before she woke up.It has been three days now. Three days of complete unadulterated bliss. It was like we were in our very own, little world
KalanLyssa?!A frown instantly took over my features as I gripped my phone so tight, I feared it would break. Why the hell was she calling me? I watched it ring twice, consecutively, contemplating whether to pick it up or not. After what Lyssa did, she not only deserves to be exiled but she wasn't supposed to get in contact with me after everything. Did she not have any shame? I guess not. I only decided to pick up with the resolve in mind saying I would get closure and finally in my mind, wanting her to explain why she did what she did.“Why the actual fuck are you calling me, Lyssa?” I spat, not even trying to sugarcoat my venomous words. “Oh, thank heavens you answered!” Her relieved voice filled my ears, irritating me more and more. “Is that all?” I asked firmly, the need to hang up growing stronger than ever.“Kalan...you need to listen to me...what I'm about to say will shock you, but it's purely the truth. I know you don't trust me...and you have every right not to...but co
Ravenna“...what..?”Tears welled up in my eyes as I watched Kalan walk away. No Ravenna, don't cry. Don't cry. You're stronger than this. Keep yourself together.“There is no birthday party here today, and most importantly, there will be no wedding.” Why did Kalan just drop the bomb on us like that? I thought we were smooth and promising. What happened then? Did he find out about Karina? Or was it another thing? I was lost in my thoughts until I heard murmurs rise behind me. I swiveled around with wide eyes. The servants...those who mocked me were whispering around me in a mockery tone, visibly satisfied by Kalan's declaration. My eyes turned to Caelum, who just came downstairs, Lady Vieva whose eyes were downcast, and Nevan, who couldn't even utter a word. No one said a word, not even her brothers. Their faces were solemn as if they weren't surprised about it. Their faces showed ‘Well, that's Kalan’A gasp left my throat and the dam of tears I tried to push back, broke, flooding
