What do you think is happening? Why are they acting strange?
MADLUCIEN... HE'S HERE. I thought I won't be seeing him until later. I was about to open my mouth to greet him but I halted when I realized how dark and cold his expression is.Have I done something wrong?"Logan, I want you and your brothers in the Eastern borders. You go with the Scouts," he ordered coldly.After Lucien said those he took his leave without even looking at me. I felt a sudden pain in my chest because of his sudden indifference."Bambina, are you okay?" Landon asked with concern.I felt something on my lump and I was afraid my voice might falter if I speak. I faced Logan and answered him with a small smile instead.Shortly after calming, I excused myself.I went straight to the quarters to have an early break. What happened a while ago somehow made me feel weak. Upon entering our house, I caught Ayla doing s
DOC LINUS WAS also alarmed after hearing about our problem. "So... this man. He knows you but you don't know him?" Doc Linus asked. "Yes," Ayla answered with a nod. "Did you see his face?" he asked. "No. No matter how I tried, I couldn't clearly see his face." Ayla's brows furrowed. "Why is this happening to Ayla, Doc Linus," I asked. "Normally, things like this happen when a person wants to be with you. And this man in her dreams wants to be with her so he was reaching out for her through her dreams," he explains. Ayla's face turned pale. "Isn't this risky? What if the next time I fall asleep, I will never wake up?" "That might happen but in your case, Bella mentioned that you can actually control your dream. So I think whoever this person is, he is weak because he can't fully have his control over your dream." "Is there a way to stop this?" Ayla asked with hope. Both of us sighed in relief when Doc Linus nods his head. "It's not my expertise but I think I can help y
SWEET PUNISHMENTLUCIEN'S BODY STIFFENED the moment my body pressed against his back. His right hand, holding the paintbrush is left hanging in the air. How I miss him. "I'm sorry again. I know you don't like it when someone keeps secrets from you. I understand if you won't forgive me right away but please eat the food I prepared for you." I let go of him right after I said those. I began to turn around, ready to leave the room but I halted when I heard Lucien cursing, nonstop.I turned to face him again and my whole body weakened because of the deep and sharp gaze he was giving. "I. Am. Mad. I was eager to go home knowing that you are here... waiting. BUT D*MN!! Imagine how I felt when I learned you were not here. I was angry and frustrated because of the news that the rebels and rogues are roaming around the woods in Preousia. And then Markus told me you left with my sister along with the others." Slowly, he marched toward me with a dark expression plastered on his face."I've h
THE NEXT DAY I woke up to a knock from outside the door. I quickly rose from the bed and fixed the sheets. I then fix my hair as I marched towards the door. Upon opening, I was greeted by Ayla with a teasing smile plastered on her lips. "Good morning, Sissy!! May I come in?" She grinned. "I brought you food." This time, she showed me the food tray. I opened the door wide to let her in. Ayla placed the food on the table, after that, I noticed how her eyes traveled in Lucien's bed before she teasingly bore her eyes on me. I averted my gaze because I felt my whole face burning. To ease the uneasiness, I tried engaging us in a conversation. "Uh, what time is it?" I brushed my hair with my fingers to keep myself distracted from Ayla's teasing smile. "Hmmm, it's past ten, Sissy," she answered while tapping the space next to her. Past ten? I can't believe I slept that much. "Eat your food, Sissy. Alpha Lucien told us to wake you up before lunch." I can feel Ayla's eyes staring a
LOVE I AM LYING in Lucien's bed wearing his shirt. We didn't have a chance to talk in the art room because things heated between us and once again, I succumb to my desires and the pleasure he gave me.Lucien is tightly hugging me while stroking my hair. I listened to the rhythm of his heartbeat as I rest my head on his chest. We were both silent for a couple of minutes until I decided to break it. "Lucien?" "Hmmm, what is it?" "You said you want us to talk. I want us to talk now."He sighed deeply and then nods his head. "Okay. I'm listening." I let out a deep breath before speaking, "I had this dream and I have been dreaming about it since I got here. I didn't mind it because it doesn't really bother me at first. But then things started to get strange for me when I keep on dreaming about it, like every night. What is more strange is that I am having some flashbacks as well and each of them feels so real. Then there's a strange tree in my dream, we tried looking for its name in t
WE'RE CURRENTLY OUTSIDE the mansion waiting for the carriage that will take Clarrise back to Berkhann City. She's going to resume her studies in medicine. Nereza said her goodbyes already and Ayla gave Clarrise a tight hug after wiping her tears. "Take care, Clarrise. We will miss you," I told her before hugging her. "You too, Bella. I'm sorry if can't be with you on your next quest." "Don't worry about it, Clarrise. It's fine. You have been helping me enough and I appreciate it. Just please watch over yourself and don't forget to visit us again." She gently smile at me one last time before bidding her goodbye to the triplets. "Please watch over yourself, Rees. Don't hesitate to send a message if something goes wrong," Lorkan reminds her. She hugs the three before she went inside the carriage. "Ysobella? Please take care of Lucien, too." "I will." Clarrise waved at us and we watched her until the carriage exits the gate. "Ma chérie?" "Yes, Logan?" "Is it true that
XYNMORTH AYLA'S FROWNING FACE welcomed me the moment I entered our room. She scolded me for taking so long. I tried explaining and fortunately, she listened but I saw how she rolls her eyes whenever I mentioned Lucien."I have no idea that Alpha Lucien is clingy.""Are these the things Clarrise left for us?" I asked, trying to divert our topic. I gently touched the dresses that Ayla placed on the bed. I can't hide my fascination as I eyed them. But it wasn't just the dresses, Clarrise also left us dazzling jewelry, hair accessories, and shoes. "These are all fancy. I can't believe she left all of these for us." Ayla nods her head in response. "I know. But she said she can't use all of them. It's just sad because we weren't able to give her something before she left." She sighed and sat on her bed. "You know what, let's pay her a visit in the city sometime.""Yes, let's do that."After choosing the clothes I needed, Ayla gave me some recommendations on how to fix myself for the pa
MARIETTA'S EYES WIDENED in shock upon hearing Lucien's cold and possessive voice. While the triplets and I were left with our mouths opened. The triplets subsequently averted their gaze and when I brought back my eyes towards Marietta, I saw how she swallowed hard. She looks scared but I couldn't blame her. Lucien's dark and cold eyes show how displeased he is by what he just heard. The silence is starting to make the atmosphere awkward so I cleared my throat to break the tension."U-Uh... nice meeting you, too. Are you from here, Marietta?""H-Huh. Uh, no. I'm from Berkhann City. The triplets are actually my neighbors."Her voice is still laced with fear but she managed to smile at me. "Is that so, then how about you join us for dinner? I'm sure the triplets miss you."Landon, who seemed to have recovered from earlier claps his hands. "Bella is right. I am sure our brother Logan misses you as well," he teased. Logan's face contorted upon hearing his brother but he didn't utter a
