Estelle POVWe all looked at her, silent, shocked, and processing this newly acquired information.“What do you mean?” Aurelian asked after finding his tongue.“Her master sold Aurora to Adam,” she said. “How? When? Aurora never told me this,” Aurelian said, conflicted.“Aurora was a slave to her master, a personal slave, and also a favourite slave. One time, Adam came to meet her master and saw Aurora. Helpless and timid, he fell in love with Aurora and asked the master to sell her to him, but her master refused. After the master refused, Adam left but started seeing Aurora in secret. Aurora fell in love with Adam because of his kindness towards her, but Adam was just trying to get into her head. But it was too late; he was already in her head and wanted her to come with him. One day Aurora went to visit him in their secret hideout, and she met Adam with a slave. She screamed at him, hurt, but he had beaten her up and screamed at her,” she said, catching her breath.“Then Adam was o
Estelle POVWe stayed in the conference room in silence waiting for them, according to her they are close to the palace and we are just waiting. Honestly I am scared, I don’t know why she is smelling death but I don’t want anybody on this table to die. Right now my senses are high and alert. A soft knock brought me out of my thoughts, I looked at the door and a guard walked in followed by Adam and Yasmine. I looked at them, they seemed normal, Adam looked all quiet and composed as usual and Yasmine glared at me as she walked in. I guess things have not changed with her.“Good morning,” Adam said, bowing a bit. I was almost convinced everything Zira said was a lie. He is always composed, never showing his emotions, how did he stay beside Aurelian all these years knowing in his heart he doesn’t like him and he wanted him out of his throne. How could he pretend that much?“Good morning Adam, please have a seat,” Aurelian said, calmly and gently and they both took their seats.“You didn’t
Estelle POVI flutter my eyes open, blinking repeatedly. I looked up at the white wall, and I wondered where I was. What happened? I can’t remember anything. I looked around me, and the beeping sound was the only one I could hear. Nobody was here, just me, and from the smell and white walls, I was in the hospital. The door opened, and Maven walked in.“You are awake,” she said, walking to me. I noticed her face; it was swollen.“Why are you crying?” I asked, my voice hoarse. She ignored me, helping me up. “I will get the doctor,” she said, and she left. I sat down, trying to remember how I got here. I feel like I am missing something very important. A few minutes later, the door opened, and Maven walked in with a doctor. He came to me, smiling. Then he checked my body and did some other silly things, which I don’t know if there is a need for because I am perfectly fine. “Do you remember how you got here?” he asked. I shook my head. He nods his head, moving back.“She hit her head ha
Estelle POVI walked to the ward, with Felix behind me. He was awfully quiet, staring at my head, and I shook my head at him. Why is he surprised by what I did? After all, I am Red, the night hunter, slayer of men, ruthless and cold. He has never seen this part of me, but at least he has heard of it. I entered the ward, and he was covered with green slimy stuff. They turned to me, and their eyes widened in shock.“Why is there blood all over you?” Maven asked. I smirked, remembering what I did to the bastard a Few Minutes Ago.“Now it is time to have an external punishment without dying,” I said, my voice dark and a smirk on my lips. I twirl my icy daggers in my hand, checking how sharp they are on my finger.“Oh, sharp. Just how I like it,” I mumbled, looking at the blades.“Estelle, what are you doing?” Felix asked, nervous. I looked at Adam, and I ignored Felix.“Try not to make this difficult,” I said, slamming him to the wall without lifting my finger. He groaned, not expecting it
Estelle POVIt’s been a few days since everything and well Aurelian is still not awake. Zira said he is making progress and should be awake soon and I have been patiently waiting for him to open his gray eyes. I have spent the days sleeping, staying by his side, just practically doing nothing. I haven’t been that worried since Zira assured me and I can see he is improving. I sighed, putting on my shorts in the closet then I went back to the room. Of course there is no way he will keep staying in the ward, we had him move here. I lay down beside him, covering our body with the blanket. It's been raining these days.“Goodnight Aurelian,” I mumbled, kissing his cheeks. Then I lay down, closing my eyes. This has been a daily occurence, wish him good morning and good night, sleeping my clutching to his arm. I just hope one day he will reply to my greetings and cuddle me to sleep. Thunder struck heavily while I drifted off to sleep. I don’t know how deep I have slept but I felt a kiss on my

Estelle POVWe were walking down the hallway silently and I wondered why we were walking we can teleport.“Can we teleport?” I asked as we walked out.“We can’t teleport inside the dungeon. It is enchanted,” Felix said and I nod my head in understanding. We walked to the dungeon silently, Aurelian holding my hand. I know he was dying with curiosity, he wanted to know what was happening. I don’t want anyone to see this side of me, I can be pretty heartless if I want to. My first kill was terrible, that day Bryan and Natalie had made me angry, I took it out on the rogue and I felt better after watching life slip away from his eyes. That day I knew I was a monster, I killed without feeling any remorse, slayed him to death. That is why Aurelian wanted my head, I didn’t just kill the rogues, I killed them in a gruesome way, tearing them to pieces. I was smart and discreet, finding my way to the academy without them knowing, freeing those rogues with all the security and killing them.
Estelle POVIt was the next day and I haven’t seen Aurelian much and I don’t know why. Is he avoiding me for what I did to Adam? Adam totally deserved it. It was his mistake to mess with him. I only got my revenge, not like I killed him. Honestly, I don’t care if Aurelian is angry, if the opportunity comes I would do it again without looking back. I got to the study, and he was there with some men talking.“Please, excuse us,” I said. They look at Aurelian like they were asking for permission and he signaled them to leave. I sighed, walking to him.“Are you avoiding me, Aurelian?” I asked. He shook his head no.“I feel you are,” I snapped, pissed.“Why do you feel I am angry with you?” he asked.“You have been ignoring me since yesterday, is it because of what I did to Bryan? Is that why you are ignoring me?” I asked. He sighed.“I am not ignoring you Estelle, I am just trying to save us from dying,” he said. I shook my head at him.“If it’s because of Adam I am not sorry, I would do i
