2024-10-29 19:42:56I woke up to the sound of birds chirping and absolute bliss. Everything just seemed so peaceful that I'd forgotten where I was and why I was here. The sheets around me were comfortable and soft and they were making me feel warm and fuzzy. I felt like I was sleeping on a cloud.
I rubbed my eyes as I sat up and looked around the bedroom, seeing that I was alone. I covered a yawn and stood up slowly, running my hands through my hair to tame the mess and walked around the bed to the bathroom.
I looked at myself in the mirror before I leaned down and splashed some water on my face before I found what I hoped to be a brand new toothbrush and brushed my teeth. I wet my hands a bit and ran them through my hair before I walked out of the bathroom and out of the bedroom.

Tonight was absolutely perfect and it's always on those perfect nights that time seems to go by really fast and there's not even time to process everything. Everything from the ride in the Bugatti to the massive theatre that Quentin had hired out for a private concert for just him and I. Hearing and watching those strings being pulled from the violin to the blows from the trumpets, everything was just magical. My eyes would close for long durations of time, unable to process the beauty and magic of everything."Can we dance?" He asked me as the orchestra continued to play and the sounds bounced off of the walls and all the way into my heart. "I mean, there's nobody else around," he said as I looked around at the empty seats around us and I slowly nodded.He stood up, holding out his hand for me to take and I

I could get used to the life of doing the absolute bare minimum and being able to get away with it. I slept early and woke up late with breakfast already prepared for me, and I had the bed all to myself."I'm going to eat a piece of everything you cook," I said to Quentin finally, speaking for the first time since I told him "good morning" when I had just woken up and walked into the kitchen, finding him slaving over the stove yet again. "You're working way too hard and it's rude of me to only eat one thing and let all of the food go to waste," I elaborated as I reached for the toast and grabbed two slices of it before biting into a single slice.

I guess you could say I was a bit of an outcast and a lonely child. I was always to myself especially in school, or anywhere outside of my home. I found it difficult to talk, or to even look up from the ground when I didn't have my mum by my side. It was when I was in crèche, when the teachers handed out white pages and told us to draw and colour in, that everyone around me, including myself saw my talent.It started really small. It started with drawing a very detailed picture of a rose or a sunflower. To then having detailed sketches of every contour of my mother's face from all angles. When I turned ten years old, my mum bought me my first art supplies and I used to get pulled into the world of painting."Do you even know how to paint?" I laughed as I looked at Quentin and his empty canvas, while I

It was pouring outside and the weather was extra cold and gloomy today, and I knew it dampened Quentin's plans a bit, because he told me he'd planned something fun for us to do today, but he still was adamant that I get ready for the day. As always, I take an entire lifetime to get ready and even when I was done, I had to sit and wait in the bedroom until he came to fetch me, because that was one of his strict instructions- to not leave the room until he came to get me."Quentin!" I called out loudly, sitting on the bed and admiring my outfit which was an oversized black shirt that reached just above my knees and a pair of sneakers. My hair was in an untidy high bun and I didn’t have any make up on."Yeah?" I heard him call back, his voice sounding distant and I was glad he had werewolf hearing and had an ev

"Do you mind telling me about your parents?" I asked him, "I know you lost them, but...I don't know, I guess I just want to know about them."Quentin sighed, looking at me with a certain distant look before he nodded, "what do you want to know?""I don't know...were they good people?" I asked him."The best," he replied shortly."How did they fall in love?" I asked him instead.He sucked in a breath, looking away from me and towards the almost empty bottles of wine and champagne before he mixed the two in his glass and looked past me, "they knew each other all of their lives, I guess. My father's family lived right across the street from my mo

"Just drink the medicine, Sarafina," Quentin pressed as he held out the teaspoon of cough medicine towards my lips but I refused to open my mouth.Me getting a cold happened out of the blue. It started at night with a few sneezes and next thing I knew, I was hot as hell and could barely keep my eyelids open. I hate being sick but who doesn’t?"I can drink it myself," I said pointedly, finding it pointless that he was trying to feed me medicine when my hands worked just fine."Just open up," he sighed as he frowned down at me and I sighed. I rolled my eyes extra hard as I tried to get the embarrassing moment over and done with. I opened my mouth quickly, taking in whatever it was he gave me.

"Hey, how are you feeling now?" Quentin asked me as I walked out of the bathroom, wrapped in a thick blanket that dragged behind me."Even worse," I complained to him as I walked back to the bed and sat down on it. He handed me what was left of my bowl of soup, "thank you.""You'll get better," he assured me, watching me eat. "I've called a doctor to come in because you seem to be getting worse."

I stood at the top of the stairs watching the doctor talk to Quentin. He'd arrived several hours ago, put his hand to my forehead and immediately knew what the issue was with me.I couldn't hear what he was saying to Quentin but I assume he was telling him what he told me. The doctor was kind but distant. He was uneasy the entire time he was in the room with me, mostly because of Quentin who kept growling at the other side of the room. The doctor told me it was just a little cold and flu and I'd be fine in three days maximum with the medication that he gave me.I watched as the doctor bowed in front of Quentin before he walked out and Quentin was in the kitchen, looking after the doctor before he looked up at me and we spent a few minutes just looking at each other.

"You really made her bow down to you?" Elisabeth asked me with wide eyes as I struggled to keep the proud smirk off my face as I bit my bottom lip and stretched my arms from the position that I was laying in.The tea party with the wives had ended a few hours ago and I was relaxing with Elisabeth as I told her what happened and at first, she was giggling when I told her about how the wives all started fighting until I got to the part where I made Katherine bow down to me.I didn't think I had it in me to do such a thing and I'd be lying if I said that I had planned on doing that. I didn't plan on standing up and putting their wives in their place which was clearly all the way down there compared to me and I most definitely didn't plan on making Katherine bow at my feet but I'd be lying if I said it didn't feel good.

"Are you ready?" Elisabeth asked me as she magically appeared in front of me while I was observing myself in the mirror. Some other women would spend the 24 hours before their wedding by going out with friends, having a bachelorette party and reflecting back on their single days; but I am not like other women. The day before my wedding will not be spent with my closest friends and half naked men with bulging crotches and tight underwear accompanied by strip poles rather, it will be spent with my future husband's eight other wives.I'm attending their infamous tea party. I remember the disaster the previous one had been and I hope that I don't have to witness the same thing but more importantly I hope I'm not the one they all turn their fiery gaze on. I don't think I can fight eight she wolves. Matter of fact, I know that I can't fight them.

"I can't believe you cut your hair," Quentin's English accent was thickly coated in shock as he ran his hand over my new hair and I slapped his hand away."Stop it," I scolded him but he was still looking at me in shock."I thought you were going to put in hair extensions or a weave," he told me as I glared at him."Are you saying that I look ugly?" I snapped at him but he quickly shook his head."You're incapable of ever looking ugly, Sarafina. I just wasn't expecting you to cut your hair. You look astonishingly beautiful, perhaps the most beautiful and bare I've ever seen you."I wasn't expecting to cut my hair either. When Quentin brought m

What use was crying and moping going to be? There was only so many times I could cry about the situation but it was permanent and there was nothing that I could do about it. Quentin would not let them die and I shouldn't want them to die just for my own selfish needs.I chose him over my own mother, I chose him over death and what I hope had been paradise. I had to stick with him now and there was no going back.I woke up before the break of dawn and took a much needed shower. I needed to scrub myself clean because it had been days since I stepp

The bedroom door banged open and my mother came charging in, "you know what, Sarafina, I can't do this!" my mother exclaimed as she ripped the sheets off my body and I just looked at her.Quentin had carried me from the balcony and laid me on the bed before covering me with the sheets as he cleaned around the room and I finally rested after what felt like years.I hadn't seen my mother this week because I didn't want to face her and I guess she gave me that space or Elisabeth has been holding her back."I can't just sit back and watch you live like this," my mother snapped at me but her angry tone was only laced with heartbreak.

I would do anything to make her happy. I'd put my life on the line without a second thought if that is what made her happy but no matter how much I loved and cared for her, I couldn't let my children grow up without their biological mothers. I care for my children and I don't want to take their mothers away from them. It would be the most foul and selfish thing that I could do and I know that Sarafina understands this but it is difficult to wrap her head around the fact that the only way to save them would be for me to create that mate bond again.I had promised myself that I would never hurt her again when she had been laying there with no heart beat and just a pale sunken in face after I had prayed for her to come back to me and when she opened her eyes I promised myself and the moon goddess that I would never be the reason behind her tears of pain and I'd kill anyone who dare

I thought I knew what I was getting into but now it's pretty obvious that I was in way over my head. Once again, my mother did know best. She was right when she said love just wasn't enough. At this point, I wasn't feeling very loved or needed or...anything at all. If anything it felt like my heart was breaking and I tried so hard to keep a straight face on as I stood beside Quentin. Brigitte and Florence were across us. Both of them looked sickly pale and they looked horrible.I felt bad for them and sorry for them, they were dying for crying out loud and the evidence was all over their form but I just didn't want them marrying Quentin.I can't believe he'd do this to me...is it wrong of me to want him all to myself?

I know understood why Katherine hated me. Even though it hadn't been my fault, the man that she loved, found someone else. I couldn't even find the strength to stand from the floor and I don't know how my mother knew or found out that something was wrong with me but when she came into the room, pleading with me from the other side of the door to let her in, I realized how glad I was that I had her here with me.I didn't even have the energy to put on any clothes. My mother came into the room and immediately covered me with one of the many robes in the room. After that, she sat on the floor with me and cradled me in her arms like I was baby as I sobbed into her chest.I welcomed the comfort that she provided me, sobbing uncontro

"Good morning, Sarafina," I heard his deep voice croak into my ear as he kissed my forehead and I opened my eyes with a grin on my face.I let go of the pillow that I was holding onto that smelled like him because I couldn't sleep at night without his body right next to mine, "Quentin, baby," I squealed in excitement, all trace of exhaustion gone from my system as I wrapped my arms around his neck and forced his body to fall onto mine, "I missed you," I cried into his neck, burying my nose deep into his flesh and inhaling as much of him as possible."I missed you too, baby," he coaxed me gently, running his fingers along the sides of my waist, tickling the naked flesh and causing goosebumps to appear on my arms "I'm sorry that
