NORA

It's been weeks since I overheard Horace and Gavner's conversation, and I have been trying to get over what I heard.

Queen Shiba had sent for me some minutes ago to discuss the affairs of the castle. I almost told her that the Luna title didn't belong to me anymore and that it was now in the hands of Candra, but when I remembered what Queen Shiba had told me months ago, I didn't make the mistake of telling her that what was mine had been taken away.

Strolling through the stairs as my shoes made a clicking sound on the marbled floor, I heard people laughing close to me.

Looking up, I realized I was close to Horace's study room, and the sounds I was hearing were coming from there.

I know I shouldn't be doing this, but I had to take a peek at what was going on and what was funny. It had been a long time since I saw Horace laughing, and it made me wonder how he looked with a smile on his face—with the same face he glared at me with when he tried to strangle me.

I was walking carefully

    NORAAs Lilith's words sank into my head, It made me wonder what I was even doing in the castle.Horace had indirectly rejected me... is this how I'm going to keep getting rejected?I was tired of everything going on in my life, and if I could ask for anything, it would be a happy life, not this."Are you sure about this?" Sarah asked.I knew she was worried about me, but I needed to act. I made a choice, and even though it didn't sit well with Gavner, I was ready for whatever was going to happen later on.I nodded my head as Sarah made my hair, fixing some accessories on it. It wasn't really necessary, but maybe she wanted me to look exceptionally great out there."I have no other choice... I'd rather get this done before it's too late," I said, sucking on my lower lip as I lowered my head."I'm rooting for you!" Sarah assured me as a smile appeared on her face, lifting my spirits.I smiled back at her.Silently, I prayed that everything would go smoothly. I didn't want things to go w

    HORACEI climbed into the couch in my study room, wondering why Nora did that.I had also suspected that something was going on between the two of them, but I had no idea what it was. Nora gave me her word that she didn't have any lingering feelings for Gavner, and months later, she announced her pregnancy to the court members.Was she aware of how that made me feel? I was sick and tired of pretending not to know her.I would be lying if I said I wasn't surprised when she accepted my rejection.How did she know that I said our mating was mere formality? Did Candra tell her? Because I clearly don't trust that bitch one bit!Or did she maybe overhear me telling Gavner?I was well aware that Gavner wanted to take her away from me, but I had no idea he would replace my mark and plant his seeds inside her.Goodness! My head was spinning.All because of the actions my mother took... I'm suffering the consequences of her actions... the choice she made is ruining my life.I already feel disgus

  • RECLAIMED BY THE ALPHA KING    CHAPTER 165: ACCEPTANCE

    GAVNERI couldn't bear what Lilith had just told me... how could Horace try to do such a thing again?I only forgave him the first time he tried because I thought it was a reflex."Damn!" I screamed in my room as I stood up from the bed.I rushed into the bathroom to have a quick shower because Horace would have to give me answers.Why would he try to take out her heart?Nora couldn't tell me about it because she was scared of how I would react, which made Lilith walk up to me.I promised her that I wouldn't act up, but now I feel guilty just lying on my bed, knowing fully well that Horace tried to hurt my woman.It is my responsibility to deal with anyone who tries such things on my wife.Turning on the shower, I shut my eyes, allowing the water to cascade down my body. I tried to know if it would calm me down, but nothing was happening... I was still upset about it.I wasn't even sure I showered up nicely... All I knew was that I hurriedly put on my clothes and rushed out of my room.

    NORASneaking past the hallway like it wasn't my home was something I never imagined would happen to me, but now it's a regular routine for me.Placing my palm below my heavily pregnant stomach as I sneaked around, I said, It's been two months, and I know I will be due soon. The maltreatment from Nora and the harassment from Horace haven't stopped one bit.I had to learn endurance and let it sink into me.Gavner was and is still against the fact that I always remain mute to what's going on, but I have to.Just like Lilith told me, I need to awaken my powers to fight against them.To think that I was also sneaking so that Sarah didn't get to find me moving around. Queen Shiba had personally told her to make sure I don't walk around, but most times I have to step my feet out of the castle to take in fresh air and think about what might happen... I loved preparing for whatever was going to take place at any moment.Just as I was about to step out of the entrance door, my stomach throbbed

Now no one wants to come around because they are scared that the same fate will fall on them.Even I will assume so with the rate at which I killed people, not to mention my mother.That crazy dragon was using me to get the revenge he wanted on the people who looked down at him, and now I have no idea what to do.Who's next on his list?Nora?That reminded me... I hadn't seen her around lately, but then something about her was driving my head crazy, making me want to go and look for her.The last time I saw her, her stomach was really big, like she was due to have her baby.I know that she has no idea, but every single minute, I always pray that I don't get to hurt her for any reason, but when it happens, I just can't stop myself because I'm being controlled."Damnit!" I cursed.With time, I knew I would not have anyone who would sincerely stand by me. Everyone is avoiding and staying

    NORAI had no idea why that happened to be the question Horace had to ask me... he made my heart beat a thousand times.Fear and anxiety engulfed my entire body system as I was shaken by forces I had no idea about."What do you mean by that?" I asked instantly, feeling uncomfortable.He shook his head. "Forget about it... I didn't mean to do that to you, and trust me this once when I say I'm not here to harm you," he said. The sincerity in his eyes pulled me to him.No!I waved it off.I wouldn't fall for his tricks, or rather, the tricks of the dragon!"Why are you here?" I asked, and I needed an answer that was straight to the point. "You know you can actually sit down if you want to talk to me, and not squatting right in front of me makes me uncomfortable."That wasn't the reason I said that... he was just right there. Very close to my unborn child. Why?Why does he have to be so close to me if he just wants to speak to me?Now I have no idea what to do. I'm heavily pregnant, and I
