Sabrina missed her mother. She missed her family, She missed Lhea, her maid. And most importantly she missed her old life. Those people lied who said mate bond brings happiness. She hadn't felt an ounce of happiness. The only thing she felt was pain. Boundless pain. When will it end? The girl wiped her eyes with the back of her hand and stared out the window. Her beautiful sparkly blue eyes were dull with melancholy. Sadness lingered in them. She was in her room the whole day and no one bothered to check on her. A maid had come once to ask her for lunch but Sabrina had refused with a wave of her hand. Not only her appetite but it felt like her spirit had also died since the moment she saw him holding her hand. How could he do this to her? A fresh set of tears filled her eyes. He had hurt her brutally. She felt dejected, helpless, and depressed. The pain felt physical. But there was nothing she could do about this but only imagine. She imagined what could have happened if he had his
Elijah held her frail body in time before she could hit the ground. Amira and the Queen stood up. "What happened to her?" the queen asked with a displeased frown. For some reason, she never liked this girl. She found her irritating and not at par with her son. She was nothing but the daughter of a powerless alpha. Her status repelled the Queen. Elizah didn't respond just kept staring at her in concern. "She fainted, "Amira sighed as if having enough of Sabrina's drama. "She is too fragile," disapproval was thick in the queen's tone. "Guard," Amira shouted. A guard came rushing in." Take her to her room. The future Queen has fainted it seems," Amira ordered. She was also not fond of Sabrina. She deemed her too weak and dumb to be the queen.The guard extended his arms to take her from Elijah. before he could even touch her, Elijah pulled her closer to his chest and glared in warning at the guard. The guard swallowed and took a step back. "Elizah, give her to him. He wil
Sabrina woke up to a rigorous pounding in her head. She clutched her head and groaned in pain attracting the maid's attention. The old woman rushed over and helped her sit up. Sabrina mumbled a thank you and leaned against the headboard. "Water," she croaked out through her dry throat. The old maid handed her a glass of water. Sabrina gulped it down quickly. She placed a hand pnher stomach and groaned. There was a mild ache in her stomach due to not eating properly in the last few days. "Here..It will relieve your pain," the maid gave her the brew that she had prepared when the princess was asleep. Sabrina took the bowl from her and drew a sip. Her face contorted in disgust and she put the bowl back on the table. "Please, finish it, My lady," the maid took the bowl and nudged it in her direction. The maid gave her a kind smile. "It's bitter," Sabrina replied, trying to avoid it. The maid's smile slipped. "Please, my lady. It is good for your health.....And I'll be punished if you
Everyone's eyes gravitated towards her when she entered the hall. The place where she was going to be sacrificed. Silence was profound as the lookers assessed the bride. She heard low whisperings of how beautiful she was looking. Everyone was captivated by her beauty. She would have enjoyed the compliments if she was being mated to her mate. But right now nothing mattered. She felt like a puppet who was supposed to follow what she was told. She wasn't supposed to have a heart but the fate couldn't be more cruel. Her throat was dry and eyes stinging with tears as she slowly closed the distance between the Prince and her. She was being escorted by Amira. Due to some reasins her family couldn't make it. They had sent their wishes and apology. Sabrina had never felt this lonely. As she reached the steps a hand came into her vision. Cyrus' hand. She balled her hands into a fist. Every part of her being was screaming at her to not hold that hand. That hand didn't belogn with her. Unwitt
"Please...don't...do..do," he punched her hard, causing her lips to tear apart. Blood leaked down the cut. She held her cheek and began crying miserably."Let me go, please...aaah," he punched her again, sending her to the floor. Her forhead bumped against the edge of the bed and she screamed in pain. The prince grabbed her arm and roughly yanked her up. He tossed her to the bed. Sabrina's vision was blurring due to her head injury. She tried to crawl away but the prince was already hovering over her. She struggled and he slapped her in return. In no time her beautiful face was beaten black and blue. Cyrus tore the front of herdress. "No, please.." she pleaded in broken voice as lamenting tears continued to course down her eyes mixing with the blood. Her struggles were weak but it was still there. She howled in pain when he kneaded her breasts. There was a scary look in his eyes. She sobbed and pleaded fo rhim to let her go but he hiked up her skirt and undid his breaches. She sho
Sabrina begged Cyrus to not defile her but Cyrus ignored her pleadings and forcefully pressed the tip of his cock against her opening. The unwanted touch caused Sabrina to quak in terror and she started shaking her head vigorously. Tears flowed down the corner of her eyes and into her hair. "One of these days, I am going to fuck you in front of him just to see his recation," said Cyrus menacingly. Sabrina didn't what to do to make him stop. She watched him with hopeless eyes as he laughed out but then something strange happened. His laughter sudden;y died down and his face contorted in pain. Cyrus stumbled back clutching his chest. His face flushed red. Sabrina's eyes became wide and she crawled away from him in horror when she saw a streak of blood dripping down his nose, mouth, ears, and eyes at the same time. The sight was bloodcurdling. She couldn't understand what was happening. Not a moment later, the prince slumped down on his knees and moaned in excruciating pain. Sabrina wa
Fury ripped through him. The anguish in her glossy eyes, the trembling of her lips, the nasty bruises on her flawless face explained all too clearly what she had endured. He felt his inside churning in pain at the sight of her cowering in fear. He wanted to pull her shaking form into his arms and comfort her. He wanted to tell her that he will shield her from the cruel world and that no harm will touch her anymore. But before that he had to clear a few things. "Is that why you killed him?" he asked her as softly as he could. He wanted to know the truth. The real truth. The truth that was in her eyes. Her eyes turned wide in pure fear. She recoiled from him while shaking her head vigorously. The desperation in her eyes screaming. "I..I didn't kill him..I didn't.." she spluttered, tasting her tears on her cracked lips. She looked nothing like the stunning bride she was some hours ago. Her lavish wedding gown was now soiled and ripped from places. Her lusturous blonde hair was disar
Sabrina felt like she was in some nightmare as she watched Elizah smoothly slitting the one of his own men's throat sending the thick red liquid gurgle out from the split. The guard jerked violently before falling to the floor, dead. Sabrina felt sick to her stomach. A drop of tear trail down her bruised cheek. After takign care of the guard, Elizah quickly dashed over to her. He grabbed her trembling hand with his steady bloody one and started leadding her towards the exit. His expression was stern and unyeilding just like his hold. Sabrina followed him sniffeling quietly. She was scared, scarred, and drowning in guilt. Elizah had taken up swords against his own people for her. This is not what she wanted. Cyrus was dead. He died right in front of her eyes. Everything changed in just a few hours. From being the celebrated bride she was now a convicted murderer. What happened? The answer was hidden behind the thick fog of mystery. Did the witch misjudge her. Maybe she w
Elizah paced restlessly outside the chamber as her screams rattled through the silence. He was tempted to burst in through the door and cradle her against his chest but he was helpless. She was in there delivering their child. Just then a tiny frame brushed past him and towards the door. It was Kaiser. Their first-born. A toy sword in his hand as he rushed towards the door. "Leave my mama alone or I swear I will kill you all," Kaiser hollered against the door. Elizah rushed over to him and lifted him in his arms. The boy thrashed to get free."Do not hurt my mom," Kaiser shouted, still throwing glares at the closed door."Silence, boy," he turned Kaiser's face towards him. The boy frowned and then scowled at his father."Papa, mama is in danger. Why are you not doing anything?" the four-year-old demanded, this time subjecting his father to his glare. His dragon blood had already started to influence him. The boy had his eyes and his mother's blond hair."No, love. Your mother is alr
They both blinked at each other. Elizah was dumbstruck. She broke eye contact to look around her chamber. It is then Elizah got his senses back. He leaped off his chair and dashed out the door to tell the guard to bring in the healer. He also told the maids who were waiting outside to attend to their queen. He stayed outside, letting the maids enter the chamber. A smile broke through his lips. She was awake. He placed his hand on his chest and rubbed it. His heart was galloping like a horse. He was elated but at the same time nervous too. He wanted to see her but his self-doubts were holding him back. What if she still hated him? "How do you feel now, My queen?" he heard a maid ask her. Elizah leaned his back against the wall and waited for her to speak in eager anticipation. He was dying to hear her sweet voice. The one that was devoid of any bitterness. "Just a little headache," she croaked out. Elizah swooned inwardly. She had a voice of an angel. A smile broke onto his lips, no
Elizah remained by her side the whole night, continuously checking up on her fever. She was hot like a scorching iron, running a high fever. The old woman had already warned him against it. She was fighting a life battle right now, the toxicity in her body was resisting the healing potion. Elizah wrung the piece of cloth before putting it on her forehead. Thankfully, she wasn't shivering anymore. "Things are going to get better from here on out. We are going to get better," Elizah told her. He could feel it in his bones. Tomorrow was going to be full of happiness and prosperity. That maid Lina was caught shortly after Georgia's demise. Harriet had asked him to let her deal with the witch. Elizah had agreed. Now that he had his Sabrina with him, he didn't care about anyone any longer.He put his hand on her protruded belly and smiled when he felt their baby's movement. "He is happy too," he raised his gaze to her and chirped, elated. A knock was heard before the door drew open. He d
The volcanic explosion shook the ground, causing Georgia to lose her balance and fall. Elizah who had not expected it was completely blindsided by the sudden attack. Harriet, on the other hand, smiled knowingly. Another heart-stopping noise boomed before the roof was crashed through by a massive creature. Elizah glanced up to find Herone flying overhead in all his glory. He was utterly shocked. The vamp's jaw slacked in pure horror. Harriet rushed and pulled Elizah backward until there was a good distance between them and the fallen witch. Herone roared and a river of fire flowed out of his mouth. In a blink of an eye, the entire hall was caught up in fire. The witch was lost behind the ruthless blazes. Elizah's mind drifted to Sabrina. Fear seized him at once. Is she alright? "Sabrina," his voice trembled as the realization dawned on him. Without wasting a moment, he swiveled to run outside in search of her. Harriet couldn't stop him as he was too fast and sudden. She ran after h
His insides wrenched with pining melancholy when he saw her bound in chains to a cage. What hurt him more was the loathe shining in her eyes for him. "You didn't die?" she rattled violently against the iron bars, gravely disappointed. A pang stabbed through his heart. She wanted him dead. "You obviously failed to do your job, Sabrina. I am so disappointed in you," Georgia replied with a disappointed sigh. Sabrina paled. She dropped down to her knees and joined her hands in a pleading manner. Her importing eyes fixed on Geirgia. "I apologize for my mistake, Queen. Give me one more chance I will finish him for certain this time," Sabrina entreated earnestly. Georgia smirked. Elizah's features crumpled in agony. The woman he loved the most couldn't wait to kill him. "I want you to kill but not him any longer," Georgia started in a riddle. Elizah sent him a hateful glare. He hated this woman to the core. Georgia's smirk widened. Her scheming eyes lit up with something devious. El
Elizah felt like a loser. The only thing he wanted was to keep his family safe, and he failed to do just that. He loathed himself for this. This all happened because of his negligence. She wouldn't have been in danger if he had nipped the problem in the bud. Why? Why did he not take notice of it before it was too late? "Don't beat yourself up for this. Georgia's plan was a failsafe," Harriet tried to pacify him. Elizah knew it wasn't true. The disaster could be averted if he had fucking noticed. "She was struggling for so long and I couldn't see it. She must have felt so miserable, so trapped," a tear escaped his eye. The more he thought about it, the more his heart broke. He couldn't protect her when she needed him the most. Harriet was taken aback by the tears in his eyes. She had never seen tears in his eyes. He wasn't emotionally weak nor let problems weigh down on him. "Remorse won't do you any good. It's time to rescue her. Focus on that," Harriet told him. Elizah nodded his
He tried to roll away but it was too late. The dagger drove through his chest like a bolt of fire but he didn't feel pain for a good second. The shock had numbed his senses. Her fiery blue eyes expressed nothing but deep-seated loath as she twisted the knife so that it hurts more before ripping it out in one brutal go. He grunted in pain. Her response was a devious sneer. "You deserve a death far worse than this," she seethed and struck at him again. This time, though, Elizah edged out by turning on his side in time. The sharp blade plunged into the mattress. Before Sabrina could whip it out, Elizah grabbed her hand which was holding the knife, and prevented her from plucking it out. "Leave me, you scoundrel," she hissed in her venom-laced voice. Elizah didn't allow the hatred in her voice to weaken his resolve. He fixed Sabrina with his deadliest glare and commanded her to release the knife while pressing his other hand against his wound. The pain was excruciating but right now he
In her sweet embrace, he was losing his control. He couldn't keep himself vigilant as she showered him with her kisses. Kisses that he had craved like crazy for all these months. His breathing labored and his eyes fell shut as she kissed every inch of his face. As her dry cracked lips caressed his skin, he couldn't help but feel grateful to the Goddess for creating this moment. He was dying for this moment. He thought he had lost her but she was coming back. His Sabrina was finally returning. He glanced down between them and smiled at the sight of her swollen belly. He put his hand under her belly and stroked it, earning a moan from her. Her melodic voice caused him to look up at her. Her face had lost its chubbiness that he adored with his heart. Her cheekbones were sticking out and her eyes were sunken. And yet, he was mesmerized by her. "I love you," he cradled her face and confessed from the bottom of his heart. Sabrina smiled and urged him to make love to her. He was more than
Days passed but that old hag could also not persuade that dragon monster into setting her free. She was still shackled to her bed, bound and helpless. She couldn't afford to be like this any longer. The voices in her head had turned violent and louder telling her to kill him. She feared she would burst from inside if she didn't do something soon enough. That evening Sabrina used her honey-coated voice to ask her maids to bathe her in scented perfumes and make her look her best. Her request and soft manner of speaking surprised the maids. The woman had long stopped caring about her looks. Her hair was a mess, her lips were cracked and her eyes had dark circles like the shade of night underneath them. They took her to the bathroom and happily washed off all the grime sticking to her milky-white skin. It was after several days, she was taking a bath. As mentioned, she has lost interest in all worldly pleasures. The maids were on cloud nine, assuming Harriet's potion was finally having
