Where did she go?Luca was pacing the entire castle in search of his wife. He had checked the kitchen, the dining, the room, hell he even went to the library in case she found it and decided to spend her time there, yet he could not find her. His patience was wearing visibly thin, fists clenched and eyes glaring as he stormed up the stairs.He even checked Lucinda's room only to find it empty, including that of his brother Laz. He stormed to Luke's room, pushing the door open without sparing a common knock. Luke burst up from his bed in defense mode as his door slammed opened. He was in a tight black T shirt and a pair of boxer shorts, his eyes narrowed and fists clenched and ready to throw a punch."Luca what the hell?" He frowned as his eyes settled on Luca's glaring face. "Why did you burst in like that?"He shook his head in disbelief, sinking into his sheets. "You're gonna walk in on an orgy one of these days if you don't start knocking.""Wouldn't be surprised." Luca replied

Jace had a small, nerdy smile, one that reminded Hazel of a certain nerdy boy she used to like when she was in the seventh grade.Back when life seemed plainer and simpler.Alva used to tease her about it back then, she would turn beet red whenever he would flash her his small nerdy smile, revealing his pearl white teeth and freckled face. "So how are you liking it around here? You know... Our town" Jace asked her, running his hand through his thick blonde hair before tucking it into his pocket.Hazel shrugged lightly, turning to Laz who had grabbed a gaming console and was now going at it with Freya.She smiled "It's not that terrible I guess, here is a pretty simple and pretty beautiful place." She nodded her head in appreciation"I like the scenery, the serenity and the presence of trees and vegetation."Yeah, she liked it here. She liked waking up to the sound of birds chirping and not the sound of a truck blaring and honking loudly.He have her a small laugh "Yeah right? It can

Luca was in the room when she got home that evening.She had not expected him to be, so she was quite startled when she turned the handle open and found him seating on the bed with his phone in his hands, a furrow in his brows. She gasped a little, halting her tracks.He lifted his eyes up to her and his grown softened. He tucked his phone away into his pocket, standing from the bed. He had just took a shower, Hazel could tell. His hair was still a little wet, his body scenting of bath soap and his clothes fresh. He was in a dark blue T shirt and dark pants. He towered over her as he approached the door, his blue eyes staring at her. She inhaled deeply, tilting her head up just a little to look at her. He stood in front of her, his hand going behind her and shutting the door. His arm fell back to his sides afterwards."Where have you been?" He asked quietly, letting out an exhale. "Touring the town." She let out a slightly shaky breath.Not out of fear or anything related to it.

Time for dinner came again like rain in a night storm.Sudden and hasty. Hazel freshened up for the evening. She brushed her hair down into long beautiful curls, letting it run down her shoulders. She dressed up in a simple, plain, dark purple, short dress. She walked down the stairs to the living room first. The almost museum style living room was quite the place to behold. Dark brown and greyish couches and throw pillows, with majestically carved woods atop the head rest of each chair. In the middle of each spiral shaped carving was a small head of a carved wolf. And there again was that painting of the world on the far end of the living room. The wolf had dark amber colored eyes, each strand of hair upon it was very detailedly drawn out to make it look quite realistic. Those fiery amber eyes of it almost seemed to burn into Hazel. There were pictures hung up on the wall too. There was a majestic picture of the King, wearing a sort of ragalia and his crown.He wore a long d

Retiring to bed that evening, Hazel was calmer and still as she sat at the edge of the bed. She could hear the shower running in the bathroom. Luca was in there, taking a shower. She gripped the edges of the bed, sighing and exhaling audibly.Would dinner always get awkward throughout her stay here?It seemed to her the queen was trying her hardest to make her stay difficult.She felt thankful to Lucinda for taking her into the town today, and she was even quite happy that she skipped breakfast.She couldn't imagine having to bear through many encounters with the queen. As much as he hated to the admit it, the Queen was turning into an antagonistic mother-in-law to her. For reasons she could barely understand.Was it because Luca had married her even though she was not of royal or noble heritage?She had clearly implied that she married him for selfish reasons or golf digging.Why she may not be far off from the truth at hand. Hazel did not deceive or lure Luca into an etanglement

Morning came with the familiar sound of birds chirping. Hazel stretched, yawned and rubbed her face with her palms.She blinked her eyes open, sun rays seeping in through the window on her side of the bed. Turning her to left, Luca was absent.She sat up at once, rubbing her eyes. His part of the bed was unmade, ruffled and the the sheets thrown to the side. He had clearly woken up before her.Where is he? She wondered to herself. His laptop screen was on on the study table in the corner of the room. He had clearly left only a few minutes ago then?A flushing sound came from the bathroom, and he stepped out few seconds later.His brows furrowed a little and he gave her a small smile when his eyes settled on her and her ruffled hair. "You're awake?" He asked.She nodded stiffly, her brain seemingly a bit foggy from sleep. Somewhat rebooting."You're hair looks like a raccoon scavenged it for food." He joked, covering his mouth a little as he laughed.Her brows furrowed and she im

The servants had baked cupcakes, made sandwiches and had some chilled juice packaged into the basket. They all gathered to sit down on the blanket.Laz seating by Hazel and Lucinda seating by her mother. Freya on the other hand did not stop clinging onto Luca's arm. "What she we do now? We are all set." Laz turned to his mother.She cleared her throat, tilting her chip upwards a little. "Well I suppose we could start with a game of cards.""Cards?" Lucinda asked, she turned to Hazel. "Can you play cards?" Hazel shook her head, chewing this inside of her cheek. "No I cannot."The Queen shrugged, smiling, "then I suppose you shall seat this one out then." She grabbed a packet of cards and Lucy exhaled weakly as she begun to shuffle and share them. Freya clung to Luca's arm and "remember when we were little, your mother hosted a lot of picnics for us in this garden.""Oh yes I did." The Queen grinned, "you two were so inseparable, anytime you aren't over here then he is over your p

Her stomach begun to ache and growl in the middle of the night. She woke from the pain and discomfort of it, and suddenly regret dawned on her as she clutched the edges of her blanket firmly, close to sobbing.Hazel made a muffled sound in the back of her throat. Why has she chosen to punish herself for something so stupid. It is not as though either Luca or Frey was feeling the extent of her pain, no it is her who is burning from the flames of her own anger. She stirred in bed, turning to where Luca lay beside her. His chest rose and fell evenly as he slept.His face was calm, relaxed, the opposite of the scrunched up expression on Hazel's face as she grimaced in hunger.Not eating dinner had a surprisingly harsh effect on her system, she had only managed to eat the cupcakes they made for the picnic for lunch in the afternoon. That was barely enough to keep her full through the night of course, so now she has woken with this ache in her stomach, unable to sleep anymore. She clos
