Luke glared intently at Luca with a look of surprise, sweat glistening down his skin. "Another one?""Yes another one." Luca gritted, pacing back and forth in. the room Luke was silent for a moment, rubbing his chin thoughtfully. "But howcome? I thought Freya was the one sending the notes... And she is prison, that means...""She is not the one sending the notes." Luca concluded. "I thought you went to meet her today?"Luke nodded firmly. "Yes I did. She denied doing so but I did not believe her."Luca shook his head, a furrow between his brows. "What if we are wrong for accusing her? What if she did not try to kill Hazel afterall?"Luke paused for a moment, he walked over to the edge of the table and grabbed his shirt off it, wiping his sweaty body with it. "She might not be the one sending the notes but we have no guarantee that she did not try to kill Hazel.""How sure are you?" Luca frowned confusedly Luke shrugged. "We are not sure of anything Luca... Anything other than the fa
The Queen was pacing downstairs when Luca returned with a strange man trailing behind him. She had her hands on her hips, back and forth she walked, fists balled and her eyes glaring into space. Her eyes snapped up the moment Luca drove in through the gates, driving to a stop and alighting the vehicle with the man. A look of exasperation fell upon his face as he spotted his mother. He already knew there was smoke, and there is no smoke without fire. He tucked his hands into his pockets, bracing himself for whatever may unfold. "Luca" she snapped as soon as she approached, "why have I heard that you have fired a number of the palace servants including the head guard?" Luca exhaled quietly, leaning on his hip. "Mother there are a number of insecurities we need to address in this palace...""Insecurities?" she scoffed, "what insecurities?! Have we been stolen from? Has anyone been kidnapped or anything thereof?" "No mother..." Luca breathed, "but my wife has been getting a series
Luca glowered down at his mother listening to her speak, he can feel anger rising within him even as she stares up at him with a look of pity, one Luca was already accustomed to. It was this look she made when she tried to convince their father to send Luke away to a boarding school for no reason. It was this look she made when she wanted to have a way and she was being denied access to what she wants. This same look, that got her her way ninety percent of the time. And now she think just this look is enough to make him forget about his wife and follow the woman of her choice?She must be seriously out of her mind if she thought it would be that easy. Luca took her hand as firmly but softly as he could, pulling it away from him at once. She frowned in surprise as he glared at her. "What has my wife eve done to you mother?" Luca frowned at her "ever since we got here all you have tried to do is torture her, why?"Her brows furrowed as he stared at her, she took a step back, feelin
"Yes, I almost completely forgot..." Luca sighed. "He is your new bodyguard."Hazel turned to the man in question with raised brows, he gave he a small bow of his head, remaining rigid and stone faced. He appeared to be partly blind in one eye as a small cloud of greyish substance was former in his left eye. Something about this man made a terrifying feeling crawl down the length of her spine if she stared at him for too long. She could vividly remember Luca talking about hiring a bodyguard after she got that ash note the last time, she might not have taken it seriously at the moment, but now that someone was standing right in front of her like a solid wall, she begun to question if this was actually best idea."Bodyguard?" She mumbled questioningly.Luca nodded his head, motioning his hand towards the breathing rock. "Yes, Ace, meet Hazel, your boss." He turned to the bodyguard "You are responsible for her safety from now on and you will follow her everywhere she goes." He instruc
Freya stood in the same dark room, her head lowered to the floor and her hands gripping her knees. She was seating on the ground. The filthy, dusty ground that had irritated her so much. How long has she gone without a shower? She could not tell anymore. Her body irritated her, she wanted to scrub it off with a sponge made of iron. Scrub so hard till her skin will start to ache till the dusts fades and her skin is almost red but clean. She had dreaded seating on the floor, lying on it. She had stood up in there for hours in hopes that soon it will all be gone, she will be released, they will take her out this filthy place with the stench of urine filled within the air. She stood for as long as she could, until she could stand no more and he knees gave away as she rapidly sunk to the dreaded ground. She gritted her teeth in anger and malice.The will pay, they will all pay. They will pay so dearly for keeping her in here, no one will be spared when she finds her way out of he
Devastated weighs on Luca when they walk out of the premises of the hospital. Heaviness, weighing in his heart. He does not know what to believe, and as he and Luka walk to the car side by side, he finds himself questioning the reality of things. Luke turned to him with a frown, noticing his state of dilemma. "What is it?" he asked me. Luca shook his head, "I do not know, I just can not help but feel as though in some way I might just be wrong about all of this. She might be telling the truth for God's sake."Luke exhaled wearily through his lips, rubbing his face with his palm he made an exhausted sound in the back of his throat before turning to his friend with a point blank face. "Luca, like I said, if she is not guilty that will only be proven when we find out who this wanna be killer is, but until to then, to be on a safe side, how about you just let this investigation proceed? Or would you like to enhance the rumours or suspicion that you still have a soft spot for your chil
Armed with trepidation and her dark brown scarf in her hand, Hazel stepped towards the door, grabbing the handle and pulling it up in readiness to solve her pending mystery.For a moment she had forgotten that a wall of a human had been assigned with the responsibility of taking care of her and following her all around within this castle. Hazel almost jumped back in fright when she came to share right in the eyes of her newly hired bodyguard. She yelped, nearly jumping out of her skin. He remained stoic, baring flinching even from her state of fright and her measly outburst.She clutched her chest, breathing heavily as his cloudy eyes stared stoically at her. She burned red just a little, and after catching her breath, she turned to walk to the left. He followed immediately right behind her. Hazel turned sharply with a frown, halting him in his steps. She glared intently and defiantly at him. Although this man was over two feet taller than her, she was trying so amusingly to i
Her lips were soft against his, her body warm against his. She made a small sound of pleasure in the back of her throat as he slid his tongue into her lips and he felt the blood in his body rush downwards. She tastes good, so good he can barely get enough. He clasped his hand around the round of her soft bottom, squeezing it gently and eliciting another moan from her in his mouth. Her hands circled his head, tugging gently on the strands of hair of his head. He groaned lightly, pulling away momentarily from her lips to kiss her neck. He traced her collar bone with kisses and she gasped in pleasure as he bit softly against the skin of her neck. She wrapped her hands even more tightly around his head, she could feel the pleasure pulling between her legs the moment his soft lips begun to kiss and suck on the skin of her neck.Teaching each place his lips went with pleasure that only continued to intensify and make her senses heighten. Hazel moaned as his hands slid downwards betw
