WHAT IS MY MISSIONAvery's POVI roll on the bed waiting for Nicholas to come for the letter. I had thought hard on what to write to my father. I didn't know what to say because one paper wouldn't be enough to say what I want.Even a book would not do. However, I ask him how's feeling, about his health and everyone over there. Then I end it with a I miss you.I truly miss them. You can never know how much you'd miss your close ones until you get separated from them. By then it would be too late, just like it was now.I am perusing the letter when Nicholas knocks on my door. He retrieves the letter from me and looks at me suspiciously.As if he doesn't trust me. Maybe he thinks I'd do something rash. I am not so stupid. He opens the letter and reads it.I see his eyes flip over every line. It's like he's searching for something. Something little that would give me away. I am grateful for the opportunity he gave me to do this. His father would be angry if he ever got to know.Nicholas
PLAN RUINED"We have a letter from Blessingstoke," Beatrice strides into Reginald's room after he opened up for her."Another letter?" Reginald's eyes widen. He's surprised that there's a letter from Blessingstoke. "Don't be alarmed, it's from Avery," Beatrice sighs abd plops on the bed. She stretches her hand to give him the letter."Avery? Is she now alright?" Reginald asks in excitement. He doesn't even wait for an answer. He collects the letter and opens it immediately. He can't wait to see what Avery wrote in there.If she truly wrote the letter, he'd know. He'd also be very happy because his daughter had escaped death.He sits on the bed and proceeds to read the letter.The writing is Avery's. He knows how she writes. Reginald's eyes water as he reads it. He can't control his joy at the news. He had thought something bad would happen to her before they could save. Since they also didn't send a letter to them to update them on Avery's critical state because they must have though
HOOTS CONFUSION."How could you!?" Alpha Devon rages. His face is in an angry mask and his anger is evident to all. Even the guards who aren't at fault are scathed. They flinch at the sound of his roar."I'm sorry my Lord. It'll never happen again. Please forgive me," the guard begs for his life. He had offended the Alpha a great deal and needed to appease him.They were in his royal chambers while he bent on all his fours before the Alpha pleading with him."How didn't you know that Nicholas sent a letter? What were you doing?" Devon roars."I was on duty. However i didn't see it because he must have sent the letter discreetly," the guard mutters in a low tone."Is that your excuse? That he must have sent it discreetly? Didn't I say to keep an eye on her so as to know what she's up to?" He sneers at the flimsy excuse the guard cooked up."I'm sorry my Lord. I assure you that nothing will escape this eyes of mine again. Please spare your hunble servant," the servant begs.The alpha t
DEVON'S PLANReginald settles on the chair before his desk while Beatrice falls asleep on the bed. She must be really tired.He picks up his ink and paper. Then he pauses for a moment to gather his thoughts together. He wants to ensure he doesn't miss anything. He doesn't know when he'll see another opportunity to tell her things again.He couldn't also leave the letter unattended to. Avery would be expecting a reply no matter how little. He smiles.Dear AveryPapa misses you so much. With each passing day, it's so hard to concede that you are now longer part of us and that you are married to someone already.I hope you have regained your strength and are now back to your normal self. Use your drugs well and ensure to eat well. We love you so much.We later discovered who placed th poison in the letter. It was Danika. However i can't say more about it for now. Till we meet.I am telling you so as to not suspect anyone else. Danika had her reasons for doing so and we punished her for i
FIFTY ONEAvery's povI was just sited in my room, hoping my father is okay and if he had seen my letter. The name Beatrice always finds a way into my mouth with a taste of disgust and hatred flowing down my mind. With that anger I stormed up, not knowing where to go, then I heard a knock on my door."Who is there?" I asked, having in mind that I wasn't expecting anyone."It is me. The omega needs your attention."I knew trouble was saying hi to me, not that I can't ignore it, but curiosity will make me."I'll be there shortly." I replied, dreadful feeling crawling it's way up my spine."Please, make it quick." The maid begged and left.What's wrong? And what is with the hastiness? Ignoring my own question, I left my room and followed the maid to where Nahigra is."She is here, mistress." The maid reported.Against close doors I can hear Nahigra's voice. "Usher her in."Entering the hall, I felt it. The atmosphere was condensing, but well, that was fake.Earlier on, Hoots sent someone
FIFTY TWONICHOLAS'S POVThe night was warm, but to someone like Avery? Cold probably would be the course of the night. I wasn't feeling sleepy, maybe because I went through a lot today.My mind seems to knock on the door to my thoughts. She was hot, and sweaty. I watched her say some words. "Dad? I don't wanna go. I wanna stay with you daddy." She frowned her face as she said those words.I went inside her closet to bring out a clean towel, and ordered the maid to bring warm water. A few minutes later, the maid came in."Thank you," I said. The maid just bowed down and left.I heard a knock on her door. "Who is there?" I asked."Hoots," Hoots screamed behind closed doors."Come on in." I ordered.He came in and saw Avery on the bed sweating. "Is she alright?" He asked with so much compassion in his words."I think she is." I replied."I just came to check up on her." He said, turning around to leave."How is the alpha?" I asked."He should wake up any moment from now." He responded.
FIFTY THREEAvery's povElias screaming to one of his maids woke me up. I feel so good this morning. If yesterday was to be named anything, it would be "romantic." I blushed at my thoughts.I heard a knock on my door as soon as I got out of bed."Who is there?" I asked."It is me." I recognized the voice immediately. It was a maid."Come on in." I told her.The door swung open, and instead of seeing a feminine figure, I saw a masculine figure."Nicholas." I called out.Seeing the grin and the happiness showing across his face, I bet he saw me in his dreams because what's with the princess treatment? I walked up to him and collected the tray in his hands."It is heavy." He warned me before giving it to me, so I prepared myself for the heaviness of the tray."What's in it?" I asked curiously."Sit and check. It is poisoned food." My mood immediately changed."Poison?" I asked in shock. He changed his facial expression. The bright, warm smile I saw earlier had disappeared. "Let's die to
FIFTY FOURElias changed his clothes. He took the letter, wondering why Nahigra would ask a question like that. "Everything about this letter is weird," He thought as he placed the letter back on his desk. "I need to see Avery." He said, and arranged his clothes back to where it should be and went out.Nahigra walked slowly down the hall. She saw Nicholas, holding a bag behind him."Who would say that the almighty Nicholas would be walking around with no guards and a sack bag in his hands?" Nahigra's voice echoed in the hall.A tilt of his head to look back at Nahigra, the morning sun made sure to give that bright green colour of his eyes a glow - He smiled."Top of the morning to you." He greeted Nahigra.She walked up to him. "What is it you got there?""Kills." He still maintained the smile."You seem to be happy today.""Should I be sad?" He smiled even brighter.Nahigra stared deeply into his eyes. She did not know when she let out those words. "You look just like him." He still
