THE NEXT MORNING ...The sun beamed on the horizon and birds chirped in the morning and happiness woke up with a smile on her face. Sumire unexpectedly received a bouquet, a love letter, and one pair of earrings from Mort. It was delivered from Brethren City. Sitting so beautifully, her hair flowing around her like a morning mist. The maiden immediately took out the earrings that fit perfectly on her. The morning breeze gently stirred her raven hair as she read the handwritten love letter while drinking coffee in the garden. She smelled the special paper that Mort used and the scent of the hunk was left there which made Sumire smile."I love you." The maiden whispered under her breath while smelling the bouquet of red roses. The sweet smile plastered on her face while her white dress swayed against the current of the morning wind. She felt serene and thought nothing bad happen yesterday."That's really sweet." Suddenly, Chadwick spoke behind her who had just arrived and brought coffee
During the two days that Sumire was boarded inside the Davenfords' private plane on their way home cruising a thousand miles across the painted sky with different hues, Dreygur was the only person she could always talk to. Even if the two of them just keep talking, they never run out of topics. They chatter, laughing all day and night. The maiden felt she had told everything and Dreygur was just listening to her intently. The young man never tires of listening to her as Sumire keeps telling stories to him. He had more time to admire the beauty of his niece and he was enjoying every single second with her.Chadwick, on the other hand, has not come out of his room after leaving them in the lounge area. He stayed inside while working on something crucial on his laptop. Their attendant was around the corner, serving them food. Sumire tried to break into Chadwick's room to serve him food, but Dreygur stopped her."Why?" Grabbing her by the hand, Sumire asked suddenly. She could see Dreygur
The chariot arrived at the massive gate of the entrance to the palace of the Davenfords. The black gate widely opened. The bailey and a thick raven with a tinge of expensive golden carpet greeted them. Holding onto the handrail, Sumire was about to get off the carriage but Chadwick stops her through his stares. Sumire nodded telling him that she understood what her uncle Chadwick meant.The carriage then drove into the palace and Sumire was overwhelmed by the awesome grandeur of the place when she got off the carriage. The glorious palace awaits them. 'Wow, I've never seen such kind of place.' Eyes sparkled in astonishment, Sumire felt like gods and giants dwelling in the palace. Just at the gate they stop earlier, the massive structures were as tall as the buildings in Brethren City. How much more is the inside? Sumire felt nervous as the palace intimidates her for unknown reasons. Even before they entered the main entrance, she was already shaking with excitement. She first sated h
The crescent moon shines reigns the starry night and the zephyr wind came in from the massive window and gently stirs the bedroom's curtain, Sumire wakes up late at night. She was weary after the long trip but all the tiredness and pain she felt disappeared after laying down on the Royal bed. She feels refreshed and invigorated after regaining strength. With her messy bedroom hair, Sumire yawned and stretched her body before she got out of bed. Eyes wandering and found the place vast and magnificent. Above her was a dark gem of a chandelier. Abstract paintings were hanging on the glassy walls which are strangely exquisite and pleasing to her eyes. The dark theme from the painting was combined randomly in the same pattern but is united and outlined by the light-gold color. There aren't many things in the room but the place screams pride and elegance. The soothing scent lingered in her nostrils. The odd silence reigns inside that only her heartbeat can be heard and the things etched in
The great North Le Frère wasn't under his command yet but as the next successor of the throne, Dreygur had chosen loyal knights that will serve him during his reign. He chose them by himself ever since he is a kid. It is a tradition of the Davenfords that whoever is the next in line to the throne will have to choose his battalion of knights to be trained and ready to serve the future King. Pure-blooded knights who are descendants of the first knights of the ancestors of the Davenfords. He has been with them since childhood. Loyal and trustworthy. Even though Dreygur is not yet King, he already has their loyalty. It is their rule that Dreygur's safety must be prioritized more than the current Queen of Le Frère.And now he will use his best knights for his wicked plan. He is desperate to get the only woman he loves. Dreygur is currently sitting in the swivel chair of his modern personal library which is just next to his room in the palace while reading a history book about the Davenfor
The two of them sauntered together with his arms around her back. Dreygur flashed a smirk when Sumire joined him in his room without knowing what he was going to do with her. She naively entered the lair of the devil. The maiden didn't doubt his evil motives or having a second thoughts upon entering Dreygur's room. The only thing on Sumire's mind was to eat a little cake that her Uncle made and drink a glass of wine then return to her room to have early rest to get ready for the Davenfords' reunion tomorrow.Sumire didn't want to come along as she wanted to be alone and enjoy the beauty of the night in her room, but she didn't want to disappoint her Uncle Dreygur. She didn't want to ruin his night and the excitement she was seeing earlier in his eyes. 'The truth is that it's not enough to make up for what Uncle Dreygur did to bring me here. If it wasn't for him, I might not have experienced the beauty of North Le Frère.' said Sumire in her mind as she sat down on the chair that Dreyg
Stunned, Dreygur got off the bed, regardless of his nakedness in sight. He stood in front of the woman who was fast asleep. The young man's eyes widened, couldn't believe what he was seeing. The disappointment was visible on his face upon seeing the strange woman on his bed. Jaw clenched, Dreygur shaking with anger at the nightmare he didn't want to face. His mind doesn't seem working to process all the happenings he wasn't expecting. He felt his world collapse at the fact it wasn't Sumire he spend and shared that hot night with. It was as if he had been poured with frozen water. He tricked into believing that he was with his niece.Eyebrows knitted into a deep frown, Dreygur had many questions in mind. 'Who is that girl? Where is Sumire? Who lets this girl in? How did this happen?' He told no one about his plan- nailed on his feet, Dreygur sat back on his bed. He firmly closed his eyes and his questions were answered when Chadwick crossed his mind."Damn it." Dreygur audibly cussed
Afternoon strikes and the palace was already engaged in different activities preparing for the Davenfords' upcoming reunion. All the maidservants and butlers in the palace were occupied with the task. They prepare the huge perfect banquet for later. None of them engage in small talk. They focus on their job, silently doing the task commanded to them.While the other Davenfords were on their way to the palace, the other member of the clan had already arrived. Gathering in the palace hall, chatting with one another. Sumire was in her room staring at her reflection in the human-size mirror, checking the light makeup she put on her face was correct. She took out a set of jewelry that Mort had given her. The jewelry goes well and is perfectly suited with her lava red gown embellished with expensive small pieces of diamonds. The maiden flashed a bright smile after putting on the jewelry. She would never embarrass or bring Massoullèves in shame. She was carrying the name of their entire cla
FIVE BEAUTIFUL YEARS LATER...10 pm. The sound of flesh slapping, grunts, and moans echoing the corners of the dark master bedroom with only small light from the lampshade lit the place. Raw naked above the king-size bed and under the thick blanket, Mort was enjoying his wife's body."Mmmm... yeaahhh aahh..." Sumire moaned. Toes curled and legs quivered from the delicious release as Mort captured her lips and milked her. Her husband had brought her to seventh heaven.Bodies connected, Mort was on top of her, dominating her. He moved again after cumming so much inside her. He pleasure Sumire with his delicious strokes, pounding her in a steady rhythm. He kissed her impatiently and infinitely. It's been eight months since he had not touched his wife after she gave birth to their second baby. Their princess. "You're tight and feel so good, wife. So damn good." Mort huskily said, growling feral as his eyes inflamed with lust and desire.Sumire bit her lower lip and dug her nails into his
In a cozy room lying on the Queen-side bed, Sumire was in a strange dream. A man at the Shrine of Death appeared in her sweet slumber and they shared a kiss again. Only this time, the stranger was awake with his face still blurry in her vision. The man kisses her with a gentle rhythm and went intensely deeper. She kissed him back with the same intensity. She is no longer that 13 years old and the stranger man she kissed now was grown older than his age. In just a second, Sumire was surprised when she found themselves already on the bed in the massive master bedroom. She tried to see the man's visage but failed because of the blinding light around him. "Who are you?" Sumire asked when the man spared her lips. The stranger did not answer her question.Shivering, her hair stood on end when she reach and touched the man's face. It was hairy. Sumire withdraw her hands and slowly, the blinding light on the man's face faded and revealed the head of the hungry shark with its saliva dripping
The night sky was aglow with the bright pale crescent moon rising from the east shone like a silvery claw in the dark. The maiden looked up at the blanket of stars that stretched to infinity and the sound of crickets hums in the air. Sitting on the balcony of her room under the ablazing stars, embedded in the serene night sky, Sumire sat on the rocking chair. The maiden seems lost into the infiniteness of the black beauty, gazing at the constellation of Orion and scorpion painting the serene night. The gentle touch of the breeze kisses her rosy cheek and skin. She imagined herself as the moon and the twinkling stars were her and Mort's babies."The moon sure looks beautiful tonight," Sumire said with a smile. A cold wind blows past her. It whips out all her anxiety and stress. Instinctively, she closed her eyes. The night deepened and the maiden is unbothered by getting cold. This is the most soothing feeling ever!The night zephyr wind gently stirred her long hair and it soothes her
Morning came, the sun rose bright and fair. In the sunshine the air was warm, and that warmth was particularly pleasant with the invigorating freshness of the morning. Mort returns home to the Brethren city and headed straight into the Aslanovs' manor after he talks to Sumire's family. Emerge from his phantom car, Mort felt a surge of happiness in his veins. The news elevated his mood. He couldn’t think of a time he’d ever been happier. The hunk never imagined himself in these situations but this is him now, he felt like an ordinary person.Mort unconsciously hums as he strode toward the manor. With a calm and cool demeanor, a charming smile curved on his lips. All he knows he is deeply delighted. "Is that really our Master?""I have never seen Master like this...""I think Master was just reborn from being a demon."Mouth left hanging open, the maidservants stare at him completely awestruck as he passed by. They all lined up and held their gaze, struck by the light aura around him.
12:30. The blazing midday sun shone relentlessly and the sunlit skyscrapers pierced the hot, blue sky. The peaceful summertime was filled with the small wind and the buzzing sounds of cicadas echoing around. It's been two days since Lyric and Leroy arrived at Francois. The temperature was scorching and the intense heat was burning their skin. The twins were outdoors working under the burning sun and the third day of their torment."I didn't sign up for this," Leroy complained as he pulled a bunch of weeds from Chadwick's garden. Lyric, on the other hand, trimmed the bermuda grass with hair clippers. It would have been easy for them if Sumire had just let them use the gardener's tools at Chadwick's manor but the maiden wants to torture them. The two of them had thought that they would just watch over her, accompany and guard her wherever she roams and, as Narco said, cook her favorite cuisine. The twins ask Mort to teach them how to cook but they couldn't use what they learn when they
The sun peeked at the East horizon, with warm beams piercing through the fluffy rosy clouds. The birds keep chirping, and the breeze is cool. The first rays of dawn seeped into her room with their golden magic, spreading various hues of silver and gold. The morning was exceedingly beautiful!Long and dark wavy eyelashes slowly flutter, Sumire wakes up with a beaming smile and felt light within. She feels a sudden feeling of serenity flowing through her veins. All the negative vibes and emotions vanished in just one night. It's like she just got cleanse or whatever.Her morning is now invigorating that even if she sees the person she loathes, her day won't be ruined. Sumire's smile widened when she remembered how wonderful her dream was last night. She felt like it was real!The maiden yawned and rose from the white sheet, stretching her body from side to side before getting out of her bed. Sumire sauntered to the window and opened it. The beautiful garden below the room greeted her. Ho
It's been days since Blanche was worried sick about her cousin. It is unusual for Sumire to skip breakfast and became silent. She doesn't even eat the hidden snacks in the big fridge inside her room. She no longer touches her favorite unnamed dessert, like her cravings for fruit and ice cream, marshmallows, and milkshakes she dearly loves. It's also rare to see the maiden never fights Narco when she is the one who consumed her own food. Though Sumire was no longer crying than the last time, she can be seen hugging the hotdog pillow while staring into the nothingness. She doesn't utter even a single word and just stays in the same position. Blanche sighed heavily as if Sumire was like a broken living doll now. Her eyes freeze. She doesn't bother to blink. Those orbs seem like a hole of dark abyss; dull and dead. No sign of emotions cruising in her beautiful pair of midnight orbs. She no longer cares to fix her messy hair. Sumire used to put on light makeup to make her babies look han
Wearing his famous stoic face, Mort was facing the screen of his computer while hands were busy fiddling on the keyboard, Leroy and Lyric were restless in their seats. Narco sent them a message with random letters and numbers and they couldn't decipher it properly. What he sent to them made no sense. The twins think that maybe it was just a prank by Narco. But his message hasn't gone off their minds. Sitting on the sofa, Leroy and Lyric tried to call Narco but the phone seemed to be turned off. They failed to reach him. Sighing heavily, they wish to know Narco's exact location. The twins hope they could leave the place and would look for Narco. Leroy and Lyric instinctively turn their gaze on someone in the room. Klauss, who had been looking at his phone, added to their worries. Even their Boss's secretary was busy, every now and then he glances at the phone as if waiting for a call or message from someone. Although they have a hunch he is waiting for Laurel, they are still unsure ab
Eyes lazily open, Narco got up after a series of knocks on his bedroom door. Those thuds from the door were too loud as if there was a killer inside the house. His pair of golden orbs looked at the glow-in-the-dark wall clock on the ceiling and it was two in the morning. He was about to go back to bed when someone outside his door screamed."Narcoooo!" Sumire shouted loudly like a landowner as if the young man owed her a debt. Fury made her feet strike the ground in heavy clomps. With messy bed hair, Narco stood up in his boxers not bothering to cover himself with a towel or sheets. He then proceeds and opened the door to see the maiden blushed with anger. Cheeks grow scarlet and swollen from shouting. Her scorching death glare was directed at him and both hands were on her waist."I want to eat." Sumire greeted him with a scowl as if Narco had the pot of food with him. The young man raised his eyebrows. Stand taller than her, Narco's eyes went blank and hovered over her. He didn't
