Lincoln raised a brow at the fuming wife who was standing in front of him in a defensive stance.Her eyes carried a lot of anger as she stood there with both hands on her hips as if she were berating a small child who disobeyed and got into trouble."West you-" "I said you should sit!" West replied this time around with a much calmer tone but there was still hardness in it.Lincoln's eyes dimmed at her before he cleared his throat and he walked towards a couch and took a seat there.West looked at him with a piercing gaze while Lincoln looked at her from time to time while averting his gaze.For some reasons, he couldn't stand her look.He finally knew what stuff his wife was made of, when she was angry, she could be vile and oppressive.West walked towards her closet brought out her med kit and walked towards him."This is gonna hurt a little "West said as she twitched her nose when seeing the cuts in close proximity."You don't have to worry about it, it will heal on its own" Linco
"I'm sorry for hurting your feelings and breaking your trust" The statement left Lincoln's lip after a long while and self-conflicting.He was never the type to apologize so it took him a lot of willpower to do that..It felt so new to him, all of this felt surreal.West slowly detached from him and he immediately knew what she wanted to ask."You don't have to worry about a thing please just believe that" Lincoln hastily replied, bringing up the issue of a child with his wife could be disastrous and he didn't plan to chest that.If she knew that he had a child outside their marriage, hell might break loose.He didn't want that of course.West gazed at him meaningfully "Then what's your relationship with her?" Her question finally came, this was what had been bothering her for a while now."She's my ex girlfriend," Lincoln answered as quickly as the question came and West frowned upon that."Why do you still meet up with your ex??" Lincoln sighed as he got up from the couch and stood
"I have to leave for work now," West said to Lincoln as she walked towards him.He was standing close to the stairs, she climbed up to him, the maids were currently cleaning her room due to the blood stains.Lincoln was wearing a shirt already as he stood while gazing at his small wife.Remembering how they had had their first fight, he sighed as a small smirk tugged at the side of his lip.Not minding if anyone would pass by as they were close to the stairs, overlooking the living room.Lincoln walked towards his wife and wrapped her in a warm hug, west didn't reject his hug as she had missed her haven for a while now.She missed getting lost in his arms and filled with his cologne.She hugged him back as she sniffed on his shirt and his familiar body scent of Wet earth and smoke filled her senses.His scent intoxicated her.While hugging her, Lincoln rubbed her head as he pressed her into his arms, his mind wandered to the sick Wednesday.He sighed again as he gripped hold of West's
Gazing at the small woman from time to time, Lincoln tapped his nails on the desk before typing on the computer system again.His eyes roamed to all the files on the desk and he was feeling so unusually bored.He lacked the inspiration to continue working on the files.He relaxed lazily on the chair as his eyes moved from the files to the computer as he inputted all the databases.He sighed as he watched the woman who was having a video call with Her colleagues, they were talking about the new recipe they could work with.He had brought her to his office so she could at least run away from work for a day but she called her team to ask for the updates on the new recipes.He rolled his eyes thinking when his wife had suddenly become such a workaholic.West that he knew would pray for days to go on leave.But today, she was different as she took some ideas and gave hers, she wrote some things in her jotter as she gazed at her phone with the other hand."Okay then, that's it..." she smile
West suddenly felt shy as she pulled him instead and hugged his body,her soft breasts were pressed on his chest and he felt heat crawl up to his skin.West was half naked with no top or brassiere.Lincoln smiled as he hugged her naked body, he smirked as he trailed his fingers on her backbone,causing electricity to pass her spine.He used his nails to create invisible cycles on her back while she arched her back even more into his chest.He teasingly left her back area and slowly made his way to her belly area and he used his palm to grab her right breast.A gasp escaped West's lip as she encircled both arms around his back as let him pleasure her.Lincoln pushed her backward "I want to see your face" West bit her lower lip to hold herself from moaning out loud."You are so red" Lincoln grinned as he bent a bit while looking into her eyes,seeking permission to get to the next step.West used both hands to pack her hair out of her face as she arched her back and pushed her breast towa
West kept calling out the details to Lincoln while he typed it out into his computer.They have been doing this for a while now and West was so bored out of her mind.It was freaking tiring to be looking at small figures and writing them out, her eyes were about to turn round as she felt a bit dizzy due to the figures."The date seems altered, check the last column what date it is," Lincoln asked as he furrowed his brows. He was looking through the computer system and discovered that an account West called out to him seemed to have different dates as it was lacking behind others."It's a bit outdated, but the figures here....I don't know what it is" West said as she scratched her head in confusion.After getting dressed up after their earlier make out, West preferred to sit on the couch and Lincoln was on his executive seat, he wasn't wearing a coat, just his white sleeves with the two first buttons undone.As he sat there, his defined figure was like an ancient king in his lair. His
West raised a brow a bit as she cleared her throat "Good day Sirs, how-""Sister" the guy who was smirking previously giggled at her and that made West furrowed her brows."Excuse me??" West asked to make sure she heard right."I-..." Before Kyle could say a word, Nektarios slapped the back of his head."Ouch Come on, that was uncalled for" Kyle complained while pouting his lips like a child, he folded both arms on his chest as he moved away to the back.Nektarios didn't bother with Kyle as he turned to West "Good day to you too, I'm Nektarios and this..." Nektarios threw Kyle a mocking gaze.Hearing that it had gotten to the part of the introduction, Kyle cleared his throat to look mature.Kyle smirked as he smiled widely at West "And I am..." Just before he could complete his statement "We are Lincoln's friends and you must be West Harvey, yes or yes?"West grinned "Yes or yes? What if I wanted to say a 'No' ??Nektarios shrugged nonchalantly "I know you are Lincoln's wife, " "I
"You must be hungry right? I just ordered for food, it will be here in a jiffy, but until then, you've worked so hard so I thought why not reward you??" Lincoln smiled sheepishly.West raised a brow while suspecting his motive "And why does that sound like a death sentence "Lincoln feigned a hurt expression while holding his chest dramatically as he slumped on the couch close to West "I don't need to have a motive to do anything for you, or should I??" West smirked "Talk of the devil""The devil should be scared" Lincoln refuted."I believe that," West said sarcastically.Lincoln scoffed "Why does that sound as if you don't believe me?" He asked playfully as he gazed at her meaningfully."A cup of Chocolate is much better than a cup of vanilla ice cream, " West said out of the blue and That made Lincoln frown."That's so weird, don't think of changing the topic" West smirked "And what was the topic?" She asked while placing her palm on her chin while gazing at the man beside her.L
"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
