PRINCE BAIN’S POVI was so pissed at the way she exploded right in my face and returned to the palace with immediate effect. She just made an issue out of nothing. Nobody would have questioned us if we decided to cut through the ridiculous line and just play the fucking game so why was she so adamant and bent on staying in the long queue.“Get this thing out of my face!” I growled at my attendant as soon as my eyes landed on the gift she sent to me. It was still on the table where I had left it.With immediate effect, the terrified attendant got rid of the sword and placed it where I wouldn’t see it. I took my bath and tried to do other things in order to get the issue off my mind since it was getting me madder by the second but nothing was working.“You must have hurt her real bad, she has never burst out in your face like that” Leo grumbled from within and my forehead folded into a frownI sprang up from the bed and assumed the sitting position in order to counter his claim. I could
FREYA’S POVThe fall was a dreadful one but thanks to Remy, I was able to come back to the palace with my skull intact.The staring competition between us was cut short by one of the figurines that shattered right at his feet and he slowly let me down from his arms after letting out a soft cough.“That must have been terrifying” he mumbled and I nodded sheepishly as I returned to my seat with immediate effectBreaking the ice of silence that came after, he teased “You lost interest in games now?” and his lips curved into a smileI released a slight chuckle as I sprang up once again. “Not today” I responded with the same joking tone and he motioned for me to come closer, which I did without hesitation.He led me to the shooting booth where we competed against each other crazily but he was always winning and that was getting on my nerves. I am the female, Princess and newbie so why was he going that hard when he didn’t have to.“What a show off!” I snapped as I threw the gun in its hang
We got to the palace and the Prince was sitting in one of the pavilions so I decided to walk Remy there before leaving for my own quarters.“Wow! It must feel good to be engaged. You are now following each other everywhere” was the first thing he uttered as we got to him and I scoffedI knew yesterday was just somehow, he was just trying to buy my mercy after making me worked up. What an asshole!“I called you here because I am so bored and I have no one to play with. Will you mind joining me?” Prince Bain said to Remy, pointing to the board game that was already set out on the tableRemy knew he had no choice than to just play the game since the Prince didn’t even give him the option to decline.“I will not go easy on you” he stated firmly and Prince Bain approved of it.They started the game and in the first few minutes, the Prince was having the upper hand and I was so annoyed because he didn’t shut up about his wins, he kept blabbering about how he had played the game since he was
That very night, I had another dream of someone threatening to kill me because I was in her rightful position but as we both argued and wrestled with each other, I ended up stabbing the person and laughed hysterically as I held unto the blood dripping her blood.“I will never let you have this place no matter how much you try so don’t bother to come back. Just die” I screamed at the dead body lying in front of meI didn’t know why tears were dropping down my cheeks even though I was laughing and I woke up that instant because Lacey kept shaking me with a worried voice.“My Princess, are you okay? You are sweating profusely and groaning in your dreams” she called out with a worried voice and I was forced to sit upI was covered with both tears and sweat, my throat was so hot that I could barely breathe well. I kept gasping for breath and Lacey who was confused about what was wrong with me rushed to bring me a cup of water which I gulped down in seconds. Immediately I discovered that th
PRINCE BAIN’S POVI actually never had any problem with Remy ever since we were kids but I didn’t like the fact that he was always pretending around me. Remy was a genius no one could compete with and that was okay. The fact that I was the Prince doesn’t mean I should be the best at everything but he got the wrong idea and started pretending around me.He gave me multiple chances to win whenever we played games, he would pretend not to understand a teaching until I grasp it on my own end. Even in sword and fist training, he would always pretend to be weak.I spent so many years thinking I was so much better and would even brag about it in his face not knowing that he was just letting me have my way. I was on my way to his house that very day when I walked into him and his father discussing.“Why do you keep pretending? It’s not a sin to be good” the father was scolding him sternly“He will be the Alpha and I will have to stay by his side as the Beta. I shouldn’t be proving to him that
THE PREVIOUS NIGHT“Lie down and close your eyes” Oneiros instructed and Julia did as she was told, her fingers clasped together in fear.Oneiros reached for Julia’s hand and placed her right palm on the folded fingers right above her tummy and began to mutter;“Luna lucebit in semitam tenetCogitationes nostrae coniungunturLux corda nostra illuminabitCogitationes nostrae coniungunturPateant fores votorumFac nos videre ultraIllumina nos cor nostrum, aperi corda nostraLuna mater, oramus, intuere animas nostras”TRANS;“The moon will shine unto the darkest pathLet our thoughts uniteThe light will illuminate our heartsLet our thoughts uniteLet the doors of wishes be openMake us see the beyondLight us our hearts, open our heartsMother moon, we plead, gaze upon our souls”The speed of her muttering began to increase with each time she did it and Julia found herself in her dreams but this time, she was not alone. She was with Oneiros.The dream was so vivid, it was as if she wa
REMY’S POVThat was the first time I would ever have a heart to heart conversation with the Prince ever since he suddenly changed towards me while we were growing up. Our relationship had a certain unexplainable boundary but we both didn’t talk about it and left it that way causing us to walk around each other on eggshells.Freya did well in bonding us once again even though she didn’t know the origin of our fight but she could see the tension between us and fixed it without much drama. I thought about going home after the horse riding session but decided to check up on her since I was already in the palace.I found her lying hot in bed and I couldn’t believe what she was saying about her seeing the Princess during the night. No matter how she explained it, it just didn’t seems possible or made any sense.“How? Where? How is that even possible?” I questioned and but she just went silent for a bit“She came into this chamber in the midnight and we had a talk. She told me what I needed
FREYA’S POVAfter sleeping throughout the day, I woke up refreshed and sound as if I never fought with sickness through the night. I released a loud yawn as I walked to the table with a demand for my food to be delivered in large portions because I was terribly hungry.Everything that was brought got gobbled down by me in a flash, and that left my maids wondering if something went wrong during the sleep because I would normally not eat that way.“That was refreshing” Bea sighed happily and a tiny smile crossed my face. She had been quiet for a while so I thought she was expressing her displeasure through silent treatment or so.“I thought you were angry about something. You haven’t talked to me for days” I whined“Wolves also need to rest, think and energize themselves. I just didn’t have anything to talk about” she responded calmly and my head shook along with her words in agreement“So are you back from doing all those things now?” I pressed further“Well, who knows? I might still
