Ava sighed as Sebastian and Trevor kept on arguing about folly things " You better stay off Trevor, I still don't get why milady let you come along on this trip. Cause you're useless around us." " I will tell you the reason dear Sebastian " Trevor's voice fills with fulfillment" because I was among the people who created the book she wished to open so badly and to top it up, I am her brother. Half brother." Sebastian spits at that "Brother my foot. Go tell that to the birds, I'm sure they'll doubt that as well" I turn around to stare at the two idiots who are still fighting in the middle of the forest and so late at night "What!" Sebastian growled, he looked pissed. " Why are you looking pissed off?" I asked and watched him give out a big sigh. " milady should only be liked by Damon and the others should take their filthy eyes off you. You know he will be pissed off when he sees the way this moron keeps looking at you. " he glared at Trevor before mumbling that last part. " Calm d
" I am yours to marry Vila" Smiling I nod my head " But don't you think we need to talk privately, I mean it's not everything your brother needs to know "Her eyes widen with realization before she nods and for some reason, she seems excited. Although I would not blame her, I just told her that I was going to marry her and it's only normal for her to get excited." You're right, Lord Damon. We are going to get married, after all, so I think we should get to know each other properly." Vila smiled "Come to my study room, am sure it is something serious you wish to discuss"" it is, go ahead, I will be behind you "Watching her leave, my gaze moves to meet Jaden " You have what you ask for done, whatever happens between her and me from now on isn't your business right?"He nods "You're right, it isn't ""And you're not going to interfere in our matters" I added and he just nodded." Good, now reply to that message, tell him you aren't helping "" I know what to say stupid " Jaden growled, "
" We have arrived " Sebastian announced before falling, it took us almost a week to find this place and it looked a little weird, I mean, I was expecting a dark creepy coven with a dark cloud, and a scary environment but what I am seeing is a beautiful town, with flowers, girls dancing, they look happy. " why is it called the witches coven?" I asked the obvious question. I look at Travis, his gaze and attention on the village, and from my view, he looks surprised too, it is quite unusual. " I don't know either" Travis shot me a worried gaze " From what I have heard, the witches aren't this beautiful, I mean look at them, they are shining all over the place " " So you are enchanted by their beauty? " Travis nods his head while grinning "Definitely but...." He shakes his and then looks my way " They don't hold a candle to you "Rolling my eyes at his words I bend down to Sebastian's level. He looks pretty tired to me, but what can I do? We have to hurry up. We don't have time. " Seba
Ava stood still, taking everything in, different questions kept on ringing in her head, why do people keep warning her about the book, what's in this particular book that people are so scared of anyway? But one thing was certain, no matter how much anyone tried to make her change her mind, she was not going to give up easily. She's already come this far so it's too late to turn back. No, never, not now that she was determined to get stronger for Damon. "I am sick and tired of hearing this "Grabbing the book I look at Delia " I don't care if this book possessed your sister or if it hurt and killed people, do you understand that " " what are you saying milady" Looking at the book I nod my head then my gaze moves back to meet a confused-looking Sebastian " I have made up my mind, this book will accept and worship me, I have come so far for this stupid book, it's the only way for me to be strong and not opening it will determine my death so what do you think I should do! Just sit back an
Alex remains seated, still confused as to why Damon will lose a match to such a person. I still find it hard to believe that Damon of all people would lose such an important duel with a man like Norman. How would he do such a thing without thinking about Ava's safety. " our aim is the main palace my lord" one of his loyal men mumbled behind him "We are going to face the main battle in three days" " Will Damon be present? " " No my lord, I heard he has moved to lord Jaden's palace and he is engaged to Princess Vila " Nodding my head I mutter " he lost his kingdom and now, his next plan is to take over another? Isn't that plan absurd, Damon can't and will never rule the country" "Although, people said it's just rumored, my lord" " I doubt it " Before I could say more Vince rushed into the room breathing heavily, standing to my feet I gave him a curious gaze " What got you running like someone who just saw a ghost " " I have news, good and bad" Vince tried catching his breath and I
Ava frowned the moment she watched Lara walk out of the garden after having her little chat with Damon for the first time. She wanted to know more about Lara but not to spend her entire day here " Brooklyn " Ava whispered late at night when Lara was already asleep. " what is it Ava" the voice mumbled in her head "Why call my name mistress " " I do not plan to spend all the day with her till her murder" Looking at a sleeping Lara I frown " I find this annoying that Damon loved her, and almost married her too " "But I don't understand why you would be jealous of her, she is you, mistress " " I don't care, Brooklyn, show me what I need to know, show me what is important not how she fell for my Damon " " Hmm, do I smell jealousy " " yes you do Brooklyn, so take me out of here " " as you wish " All it took was for me to blink, the environment changed and what I saw was Lara with Alex, she looked angry "What are you doing Alex, I see you only as a friend " I think he was professing h
"You're sorry? Really?" Damon watched how she cleaned her tears and then nodded" Please leave me alone I need some time to think, think about everything that has happened " " ava" "please Damon, please " she shot me a completely different look, a look I had never seen in those beautiful eyes of hers before "It doesn't matter what I do or say right now, either way, I am confined to you, you did that without my consent, now I wish you leave me alone, can't you give me this one wish?" " I can " nodding my head. I turned around and then left, shutting the room door. I had no idea what to do next, where to be or stay "What do I do now, I can't lose her. I just can't, I'll die. " I mumble the moment I feel a presence at my side, I lean on the door then bow my head in regret " I have completely ruined my chance of having a happy life with the woman I love " " I suppose you knew this would happen when she found out?" Sebastian asks and I nod my head before falling and closing my eyes " Why
The next day, Ava got out of bed only to find it empty. The sound of the water running made her understand that he was in the bathroom. Ava's face remains flushed as the incident of last night replayed in her memory. Last night was amazing but she forgot that Brooklyn was in the bedroom. And that only made her blush even more. " Ava, are you okay, you look like a tomato right now " Damon stepped out of the bathroom naked, she quickly used the blanket and covered the book, she could still hear but couldn't see "You're red, tell me, what dirty thoughts are you sheltering in that silly head of yours that's making you blush this much " Clearing my throat I try my best not to look down, my gaze remains on his face as water drops from his hair "It's nothing Damon, and my head is not filled with silly things " Smiling I stand to my feet " Do you want me to help you? " " Help me with what?" Not knowing what to say I bit my lower lip while he chuckled "So silly, do you ever change ava" he put
Unknown "Please let me go. Damon must be worried about me." Ava cried The blindfold was taken off her eyes and she was shocked to see Travis standing in front of her. "Hello, sister." "Travis, how could you kidnap me? I demand you take me back to the palace." "Don't you get it? I have always loved you. But you choose to ignore my feelings for you. And then I heard the news of your death, only for me to see you back again. It was a sign that we were destined to be together." He blabbed "I was your sister, you psycho.""But not anymore. Now we're not related. Nothing is stopping us from being together now." "I love Damon Travis, please. I'm carrying his child." "Not for long ava" "Look, I don't remember much from my past but I know you're a good person. Don't do this. Damon would kill you if he finds you but if you let me go, I promise no one will know about this." I tried to reason with him "Travis, please don't do anything to her." A girl walked into the room. "How the fuck
"I begged you not to kill him but you wouldn't listen. And all because of that stupid Ava, first, she took you away from me, and now that I have found someone else to love she wants to take that also? how can all the guys be crazy about her, I mean what does she have that I don't? I know she's pretty but that doesn't mean that she can get all the guys in the world. I'm starting to hate her she's the course of all this problem" Damon could see the pain and bitterness in her eyes as she spoke and it pained him to know that he was the reason why tears could be seen in Zulu's eyes. And on the other hand, Chase looked hurt by her words.Damon had already beaten Alex almost to the point of death. "Forgive me, Zulu, I let my anger get the better part of me. I had promised to protect you and now I am the cause of your pain. I'm sorry" "Sorry, you're telling me you're sorry after almost killing my beloved, you say you're sorry, tell me, what's your sorry going to do for me will it heal the
After the incident in which Ava saw Anna and me kissing, I thought she would come back here yelling and telling me how much she hated me for it. I have not seen her I guess she locked herself up in the room. Maybe I should just apologize I can't take this silence anymore. I wonder why ladies have to be so difficult. I mean, she was the one who upset me and now I'm about to ask for forgiveness from her. I just hope she doesn't plan on getting rid of my child cause of her crazy dreams. I made my way to our chambers only to find them empty. I checked the bathroom and the balcony but it was empty as well. Where could she have gone? I just hope she hasn't done anything foolish. "Grant, Chase," I yelled and they came almost immediately "What could be making you scream my name like the house is on fire," Chase answered. "Where is Ava? I mean, have any of you seen her 'cause I can't seem to find her." "I don't understand shouldn't she be in her room? Grant asked " I just said I can't fi
I still can't believe Damon kissed Anna, I mean we just argued and he was already running into the hands of another woman. And he keeps professing his undying love for me. Doesn't he know that I will get hurt by what he just did? What am I saying, maybe I walked in at the wrong time.Maybe she kissed him without permission, maybe that's true but Damon doesn't seem bothered. I guess I need to confront him. I was already on my way to give him a piece of my mind when suddenly I felt someone put a handkerchief over my nose and I passed out. ••••*Unknown* "I can't believe she is pregnant for that bastard. I have always loved her but yet she never noticed or should I say she chose to ignore my feelings for her. I lost her once because I never made any effort to gain her love but not this time. Not when I finally have a chance with her." "But son don't you think this is all wrong? I mean she's…" "Enough father, I don't care if it's right or wrong. All I care about right now is making h
" the truth is that I know I am weak " She frowns then clears her throat "I know that I am not strong so I don't need....." The next thing happening is her vomiting on my favorite rose in the palace. What did she eat? Damn, I love those flowers! Damon watches the sleeping Ava, right after throwing up, she loses consciousness, is she sick? The physician still hasn't arrived "Ava" I mumble the moment I notice her eyes blink thrice before slowly opening them, she turns and looks my way. She looks kind of pale, why didn't I notice she was sick? I was so busy being mad at her that I forgot to take proper care of her. " Damon?" She smiled " I feel so weak right now " she sat up gently, " I think I got the flu, I'm sorry" Titling my head to my left I study her gently "You are sorry? For what? Being sick? common ava or your body is telling you not to get angry so easily, you might vomit to death you know " "I'm sorry Ava, sorry for not being able to take good care of you. I just let anger
She steps closer and slaps me "I am not weak, you take that right back " and then it hits me. She remembers Damon's gaze moved back to aggravated Ava " Why the hell are you here" I couldn't help to get annoyed as well " What if something bad happened to you, this is a battlefield for crying out loud " " a battlefield where all your enemies are lying dead, I am not weak Damon, I can take care of myself " " of course, you aren't weak " I frown "How did you even get your memory back ?" " why are you asking" she furrows her brows " Were you even bothered about my memory loss? " I frown, saying nothing else. I know this will lead to a long argument. I am about to give her the argument she wants but not now and not here. "You were happy with the fact that I lost my memory. Weren't you?" She gasped " Sebastian, take her to the palace" "I am not moving from this spot "Exhaling I tried calming myself down but before I could reply to her, Alex shoved me aside " Ava, how did...." Before he
" Forgive me milady " he smiles and I frown" Right now we need you to get ready for us to leave for the palace" " are we going to be living there?" I ask while moving back into the house, Sebastian nods his head and I lift the book I was given yesterday "Can this book talk? " I turn and look at Sebastian " I have a feeling it is alive" of course I am alive" I blink because all that happened was fast, the book flying from my hands and becoming human, a woman with dark long hair " A mistress that can lose her memories so fast?"" what are you" I looked closely and Travis gasped " Don't tell me Ava is running mad " he steps closer " Who are you talking to Ava? " " the book, it is human " I look at her "They can't see you?" " no mistress, only you can "She moved closer " I can give you back your memories master but it will cost you a great deal " My gaze urges her to speak "You will have to release me, you just need to say the word and I will be master of my own, people will be able t
" of you leaving me and marrying another man " From the sound of his voice I realize he isn't lying, is that what he calls a nightmare, is it possible he likes me? Looking up at him, I Lean close and kiss his forehead "Sleep, I won't leave you "A smile forms on his lips. " thank you sugar" With that he closed his eyes and I could tell he was already asleep. •••• Ava kept an eye on him as he slept, he did say today he will be king, does that mean the battle is ending today? How am I supposed to get back the memory I am said to have lost " Damon " I mumble then sigh, whenever I say that name my body reacts strangely. He sleeps peacefully and he looks so handsome. Moving his hair from his face I watch him smile " I thought you would kiss me " he muttered, his eyes still closed " I won't mind if you do, so go ahead " " Why would I want to do that anyway? " I tried so hard to hide the blush on my cheeks. " I don't know " he opens his eyes "Maybe because my lips look addictive" he wi
After Zulu was told by Damon to go heal Alex, she didn't waste any more time as she left immediately heading to the man she had grown to love, Alex. Zulu watches Alex frown the moment he realizes Ava has gone " Where the hell is Ava, she should be here. I remember leaving her here with you, didn't I? " he turned in my direction and I had to shrug. " I told her to stay still, I was worried about you so I left to come to check up on you " Alex ran his hands through his hair, frowning " Zulu, I told you clearly to keep an eye on her, she is too...." Waving my hands I make him stop talking, he furrows his brows, and even while hurt he still worries about Ava. " you're badly hurt, you need treatment "Trying to touch his hand he steps away "Alex, you need to stop thinking about her and start thinking of how badly wounded you are." " you're just my maid, you don't call me by my name! " " then I quit " "Fine, now get out!!" " No " I yell back at him, watching him slowly sit on the bed,
