West couldn't hear what they were saying but it seems as if they suddenly came into an argument but even so,she couldn't hear them.She was just looking to maybe grasp something from what they were saying.She decided to read the lips of a woman as she was talking to Lincoln who had a poker face as if the woman was talking trash.Everyone of them were in either black and exquisite body fitted gown or Suits.When west tried to read her lips,she couldn't grasp anything as it seems as if the woman was saying two different things at the same time.Lincoln raised a brow when the woman concluded what she was saying.And when west read his lips,she could only think that what he said was "Fuck out Of my Face "West raised a brow doubting if her guess was accurate.The people said theirs shortly before the entered their cars again and left one at a time.Lincoln stood there for a while as he watched all the cars evacuate the mansion area.After the gate was locked,Lincoln slowly narrowed his e
After closing hours,West left the office early as she had this meal in mind.She so wanted to try it out at home,she wanted Lincoln to taste her meal as a form of a thank you gift to him.The properties were saved in the bank by Lincoln since she didn't plan on divorcing him yet and didn't have the intention to.She was grateful that she married such a formidable man.She walked towards the road side to hail down a cab,her colleagues also came out of the company."Good night West" Mrs Carmine flashed a smile at West as she headed to the garage to go get her car.Other male and female colleagues in her department waved at her and west returned every greetings with a smile and a wave too."Bye guys" West said with a wide smile as she held onto her bag,waiting for a taxi to come by.West remained patient for a while as she kept looking at the left and right side of the road,hoping for one to come soon.Just then,a car stopped in front of her and the smile on her face died down when recog
On getting home,West sighed as she dragged her tired self to the stairs,she was literally grumbling about what happened between her and Shawn few hours ago and that made her mood a bit sour.As she ascended the stairs,She passed by maids who greeted her and she just gave them each slight nods and dragged her legs on the stairs.She had plans of cooking a dish that would be launched,she wanted to make it a home practical and share with the staffs.But now she was damn tired and she knew she needed a very warm bath to help relax her muscles.Before reaching her room door,she came across the man who was coming out from the room he specifically pointed out to her never to enter.The room he told her to greatly avoid and never trespass.West raised a brow lazily as Lincoln walked towards her but he was unusually in a hurry which doesn't seem like him.' Why was he in a hurry?? ' West thought as she watch the man come from the front,coming towards her way.Lincoln took long strides and when
West sighed as she came out of the bathroom and slowly let the towel fall off her body,exposing her bare and silky skin.West hummed a bit as she walked towards the table she kept her lotion,she applied a small amount of the lotion on her palm before using both hands to rub the lotion,she slowly used the lotion to massage her face gently.After applying it,she added a moisturizer before taking the pajamas from the bed and wore the purple colored pajamas.She heard her phone beep and it was a message from Instagram, opening the text,she found out the sender was Shawn.She had deleted his number but she was still his mutual on instagram.She rolled her eyes when she read through the message : Hey Westy,I'm sorry for how the conversation turned out,I was.....rather too impulsive which I regret,have a Night rest Love."Trying so hard, huh?" West grumbled,she didn't even have the time to exchange any text with him as she felt she didn't need to.She dropped her phone on the lamp stand clos
"Stupid.." Lincoln muttered as he hurried over to her side and grabbed her bleeding finger " Why so clumsy??"West rolled her eyes,thinking it was all his fault for being so handsome with those mesmerizing eyes.' what was that for?? Stop the thoughts! ' West chided herself from thinking about Lincoln in such way."Come over here" Lincoln said as he dragged her to the chair he was sitting on previously,he had this frown on his face but he was worried for her "You're a chef,I wonder if you are always this clumsy,perhaps your hands must have been covered in scars" "I don't have any hand injuries,it's just-" west cut her words and didn't complete it.Lincoln raised a brow at her and seeing that she didn't say anything else,he opened the First Aid box and brought out the iodine to apply on the cut,it was a small cut though.After applying the iodine,He gently wrap the wound with a blister.West gritted her teeth in regret,she wonder how she would hold the knife with such hand.Lincoln r
Lincoln sighed unknowingly which made West raise her head to look at him.' whatever it is, I'll face them head on' Lincoln thought before grinning at West."You said you would tell me what Shawn told you!" Lincoln gave a reminder to West.West nodded before sitting comfortably on the chair, resting her back on the chair "Yeah, well it's just some bullshits, he was all about me being his first love, that we met met so I belong to him" West scoffed "Like who does?? He's totally out of his mind" West didn't notice the piercing and cold look in the man's eyes, the man standing opposite her seemed to be growing even colder.His hands into a tight fist as he gritted his teeth in anger, something dangerous flashed between his eyes.His canines suddenly became itchy, eyes constricted as they became sharp.His breath was getting a bit heavier, so he quickly turned to face the pot on the fire, getting close to the heat, he allowed the heat from the gas cooker to melt his skin.He was riled up
The supreme department was bustling as workers moved from one desk to another.They were excited because the launch was in two days and one of their staff would be the representative on the day of the launch.West quickly read through the reports of the various dishes, and other people from other departments came to drop their reports as well.This was too much work but it was a lifelong opportunity as she could gain a good audience for her job and even bring more clients to the company.It all depends on how she handled the situation."How's the preparations going??" The very annoying director walked into the department with those huge glasses of his."Miss East, are you done yet??" He asked again as he directed the question at the girl who was sitting in her office space while reading through the reports of some French dishes, West raised her head to look at him "Almost""Almost?? You have to conclude the task by the end of today and summit the overall draft to my desk for review, w
Standing in amongst the queue of people who wanted to grab a bowl of popcorn, West turned to look at the man who was standing not far away with both arms crossed on his chest.West threw him a awkward smile, he was looking around as if it was his first time being to a cinema.Lincoln raised a brow at her who was giggling at him, they just arrived at the cinema center and the movie was about to begin.Lincoln looked at the people in the queue, they were all guys who came with their girlfriends, the ladies they came with were at the back, sitting on the rows of chairs while waiting for their male partners to get the popcorn for them.He frowned when noticing that West was the only female in the queue who wanted to get a bowl of popcorn and soft drinks for them.West was eagerly waiting for her turn so she could finally buy the soft drinks and popcorn for the two of them before the movie started.She was still surprised that he agreed to come along with her to the cinema, she was a bit h
"Let the heavens and the earth bear us witness. The heavens as executors, the earth as eye witness to this peace treaty between Vampires and Witches" King Cassian shouted, addressing the crowds, the king was standing in front of the hall's balcony, the crowds were massive, all from every part of Hagrid, in the middle of the crowds was a space that maintained the barrier, vampires at the right-hand side while the captured witches were on the left-hand side.The witches were not as many as the number of vampires there, but they were many.They were told about this treaty, the oldest wizard there, the father of Miguel Cervenka led the witches, and Miguel was amongst the crowd of captured witches and wizards.Some were not in support of this peace treaty but they had no choice but to swear the oath of allegiance after Cervenka,Miguel's father, summoned their goddess and The Vampires prayed to the heavens and their past kings."This peace treaty shall be passed down from our generation to
"Do not spite my dead son, I won't accept that!" Hugo growled."How did you think your son died?? he was working for a witch, I was there to witness it and Kyle and Mateo were also there" Rhysand rolled his eyes "That is to show that some vampires who think have egos are sort of worthless without pride....but that's not what I am here for" Hugo staggered backward while the king gazed at him with a piercing look "What do you suggest we do Rhysand""Let's form a long-lasting treaty that will bond the two sides so they can never break the agreement "Lord Drogo cleared his throat "How are we sure this will work? We can't control them with just written words on a scroll that can get torn over time"Viscount Magnus Lestat twitched his mouth a bit "That's why he suggested a huge wall that can stand as significant agreements between the worlds and also an oath of allegiance""I think it's a good idea then" Lord Drogo acknowledged.Some also whispered amongst themselves in agreement on the m
Walking into the hall of King Cassian Von Vendela, Rhysand and Mateo entered to see the lords gathered there.King Cassian frowned "Rhysand why did you hold this meeting and come late?" He asked.Rhysand had called for this meeting a while ago when he got to the palace and now it was commencing."My lord" he acknowledged, not bowing as he walked straight to the front of the king.Lord Drogo was seated in the very first seat close to the King's throat, lord Armand,lord Molocbai, Viscount Magnus Lestat, Lord Vittorio, and Emiel Velkan were there with so many other lords.They were all wearing blue robes with golden embodiments on them, their hair was long and close to their waistline, and they backed it in a bun.Rhysand's gaze wept to Prince Ollivander who was sitting on the right-hand's throne close to the king. Sensing his gaze on him, Prince Ollivander adjusted nervously on his seat while averting his gaze elsewhere.Prince Thibor was sitting amongst the lords, sitting close to the
"Am I the only one who heard that??" Rhysand asked ridiculously and Mateo and Kyle walked over to the bed "That sound came from her""Call the Physician Kyle" Rhysand bubbled in delight.Soon the Physician Was checking Amren, she placed a hand on her neck, and her face remained bland as she concentrated on her diagnosis.Rhysand and Mateo including Kyle couldn't seat still, Rhysand had both hands folded on his chest, his eyes remained on the physician, waiting for him to make the news.Rhysand felt his hands were covered in sweat as he sat there nervously, after a while, the physician turn to look at them."Well...Prince Rhysand""I'd appreciate it if you go straight to the point" Rhysand cut through as he asked, his eyes resting on Amren's body."Yes, Was it just us or...did it happen? we heard that sound from her " Kyle backed up Rhysand's words.Mateo remained quiet as he just waited for what was to come.The room had its tension as the air hung up, It was as if it was closing in o
"I was thinking of letting the king know of Rhysand's passing, it's been five days now" Kyle suggested as they both walked into the house.The living room was quite as usual as they made their way to the small stair and ascended it,"Just keep mute Kyle" Mateo groaned out in displeasure, his face was stoic as he knocked on the door but didn't hear a sound.Kyle was standing behind him with a pouty face "Let's just go in, maybe she's probably sleeping" Kyle concurred."What if she's dressing up?" "She would have answered" Kyle argued back."I do not have the time to bicker or banter words with you" Mateo interjected but Kyle had already held the doorknob and pushed the door open.The smell of smoke first hit their nose before their eyes scanned the room.Such enough, Rhysand was still in the bed but Amren was nowhere in sight.Their eyes scanned the room as they made their way into the room, Mateo laid his eyes on the table and they quickly walked over to see the items on it, Kyle mad
"Prince Rhysand hasn't returned to the palace for days now" King Cassian Asked Hugo who nodded."Did he perhaps find out that you know he did that?" The king inquired."I sent the body to the old Physician my lord," Hugo said quietly, his both hands folded "She did a test on his body and found that he was indeed killed not by vampire claws but by a witch"King Cassian frowned "you mean, Rhysand didn't kill Caine? But a witch?" Hugo sighed "I do not know how this whole thing came about, Rhysand has always hated Caine to the core and that's the very reason he had Caine banned from the human world and sentenced to Crege where Caine saw death face to face " King Cassian relaxed his back on the chair "I know Rhysand isn't that stupid to do that to you or Caine, he can get Caine punished not killed" "My lord, then who is this witch?" Hugo asked."Feyre?" The king asked instead and Hugo shook his head "We have destroyed the whole clan of witches and their community ""Then we have no othe
Just like that, Amren was living in the house Rhysand had kept her, his body laid on his bed as they used incense to keep his body warm.It has been two days and he's still not responding or making an attempt to wake and the hopes within Amren crumbled even more.The doctor has confirmed that he was dead as he was stabbed by that witch's sword that contains deadly magic and poisons.But somewhere within couldn't settle for that, she had always seen him as a strong man that couldn't fall, he was untouchable and strong.He couldn't die.Amren wept close to his body "Rhy....please wake up and I promise you won't be hurt for a second time, I know how to use my magic now and I'll protect you, your mom is no more so she can't hurt you, I failed you.... I failed to keep you safe but rather brought you closer to your death, I'm sorry" Her eyes were red and swollen.Soon, Mateo and Kyle came in, they both looked thinner just like Amren who hadn't been able to eat anything for days as she kept
All strength in her faded off, her soul lost its very essence, Amren's heart clenched on her chest, her blurred eyes looking at the lifeless man in her arms.Words couldn't form in her throat, the pain numbed her that she had no actions left to perform, no words to speak out, and all her brain cells were too short to process a thing.The pain made her lips quiver, her hands grow cold, and Amren felt like a lost thing.The whole room bore tension and Amren felt the cave was closing in on her, her face twisted in pain before she burst out.All the pain she had been holding in until now, she let them out as her ear-piercing cry ran out of her throat, hoping for the cry to lessen the pain she was feeling in her heart.For it to reduce the weight of hate in her heart, and for it to cleanse the memories of how Rhysand died in front of her."Argh" Mateo and Kyle couldn't retract their gazes, their eyes numb as they turned red."Is that Brother Rhysand?? Mateo, this can't be true right? It's
"Have you discovered Rhysand's whereabouts?" Hugo asked the guard before him but he shook his head "Not yet."Hugo balled his fists "Keep searching and be more proficient ""Yes sir" he bowed before leaving to find Rhysand's whereabouts.Hugo's eyes narrowed to the far distance "I'll get you Rhysand " ••••Meanwhile, inside the cave, The once quiet place was now filled with tension, They had initially thought it was just Feyre but it turned out several witches were also there with her.Rhysand killed two of the witches with his bare hands but the others kept using their magics to outrun them.Amren Watched on with dread, her eyes following Rhysand's every move, alerting him when a witch was close to striking him, her heart drumming heavily in her rib cage, hoping he would come out unscathed.Feyre was rather aggressive, she had injured Rhysand a few times with the multiple blades sent his way, she summoned blades at him, and they pierced his chest, cutting him roughly but the part
