Chapter Twenty-nineUlricThe last time I dreamt about someone other than Maelis was before I met her. Ever since I set my eyes on it, she was everything I could see whenever I close my eyes to sleep, she was the only person I could dream about, but it changed last night. I didn’t see Maelis but the new girl in my dreams, and all I dreamt about were the moments we shared in the library.I woke up with a loud sound in my head, followed by the low whining of my wolf who seemed to be displeased by the cutting off of the sweet dreams I was having about the new girl.The kiss, the making out, and me getting on the verge where I couldn’t think of anything else other than claiming her and having her completely.Whenever I thought about it, I wished I hadn’t pulled back to ask her any question, she wouldn’t have objected and left. She would have just gone with it just like she did with every other move I made before I asked her that question. She didn’t protest or try to fight me off, she eve
Chapter ThirtyMaelisIt was another day, a beautiful one as I spent the whole night daydreaming about Prince Ulric and the moment we spent in the library.If I had a chance, I would turn back the hands of the clock and go back to that moment we shared so I could experience it again. There was something about him that makes me feel so good and calm whenever I was around him. I just couldn’t tell what that thing was, if it was the mate bond or something else.I couldn’t tell what exactly it was, all I was sure about was that I wanted to be with him, I wanted to spend every passing minute with him, but that was impossible. I had to focus on my main priority in the castle, which was working diligently as the maid I was and finding my way to eventually work in the Royal hospital, that was my main goal.I had no intention of being with prince Ulric, or any of the other two brothers. I knew they were my mates, I felt the same kind of bond with all three of them, the same swirling of my wolf
Chapter Thirty-one Maelis As though I was being controlled and there was a magnetic pull from my body to his, my hand went up to his back and I cling to him. His hug was always very warm, and it made me feel secure and safe, as though I was free and I couldn’t overcome any problem I find my in. I wanted to stay there, to have him hugging me for hours, I wanted to stay in his arms for as long as I could. They were warm and they carved around me tenderly, giving me that sense of belonging that I had lost since the moment I lost my mom. He pulled back gently and I let out a growl out of frustration. I tried hard not to make it loud but it came out loud and clear and I saw his eyes flicker when I did that, it was a mixture of confusion and happiness. “How are you?” He asked. I cleared my throat and tried to act as normal as I could, ignoring the tickles that was going up and down my body just by hugging him. “I…I am fine.” My words broke as I pushed my legs together, I couldn’t
Chapter Thirty-two UlricI had never asked anyone to go with me to my private space. It was a private space and I have tried as much as I could do to keep it just like that.Expect my horse, no one had ever set foot in that space, not even my mom or Iris who was one of the closest people to me in the palace.I had no intention to take anyone to that place but I didn’t give it a second thought before asking her to come with me, and the joy I felt when she agreed to come was just unmeasurable. It was as though I have had it in mind before to ask to come with him, but that wasn’t the case at all.I only thought about what would we fun, what we could do together for the day and the thought came to my mind.Usually, I wouldn’t want a private time alone, but now I wanted a private time with her, I wanted to spend time with her, away from everyone in the castle. I needed that time away, I had always needed to get away from the negative energy, at least once in a day, and now I wanted it to
Chapter Thirty-threeMaelisMy heart swirled with joy and excitement as I waited for him to be back. It’s been one happy moment after the other ever since the moment we spent inside that archive room.He made me feel great and I wanted to keep spending time with her, I wanted to spend as much time as I could as I didn’t know what would happen after now.He promised to protect me and be there for me, but he also told me he couldn’t promise to help me with the distribution problem. I didn’t know which one to believe or go with, I just wanted to hold on to the hope that he would find a way to help me out and everything would continue to go this way, this happy and exciting way. I could only hope, I didn’t know what would actually happen.I couldn’t imagine being seen by the other two brothers, they would make sure they made my life a total hell, I wasn’t sure I would be able to deal with them.Prince Ulric did it in his own way and made Lucia give in to not telling anyone that I was work
Chapter Thirty-fourMaelis.I found him extremely lucky to be have such a beautiful space where he came come to at any time, a space where he could stay to get away from the overwhelming feeling of being writhing the walls of the castle.If I had a place just like his, then I would spend most of my time there, I would stay there for as long as I could to be away from these people. Madam Fiona, Prince Valko, Prince Kael, Lucia, and every other person that brings nothing but negative to my life, I wished I could also find a space where I could be away from all of them and spend some moments in solitude.He got to the door and pulled out the key from his pocket. I watched a he opened the door and took a step in before turning back to me. “You can’t come in now.” He said.I was confused, why doesn’t he want me to come in? I looked around, trying hard to figure out what was going on, but I couldn’t. Why doesn’t he want me to come in?“I will be right back.” He said to me and I watched him
Chapter Thirty-five MaelisI was unable to close back my opened mouth for minutes, I kept looking around to be sure we were still in the same place and haven’t moved from where we were before.It was like we were in another place entirely, the whole place became different within the twinkle of an eye.I never expected to find a river hidden so deep within the forest. I thought it would just be filled with tall trees and fallen branches, just like how a typical forest would look like, but this place was totally different from what I pictured it to be. The clear water sparkled under the faint glow of the sunlight, and I could hear the gentle rush of the current. It was a beautiful, peaceful spot, almost like a secret oasis. It was perfect, it had the perfect view, the perfect atmosphere. Every single thing about this forest was perfect. The low chirping of the birds formed a rhythmic pattern with the sound of the river and trees moving. It was such a beautiful sight.I turned back to
Chapter Thirty-sixMaelis.He continued to swim around effortlessly, and I wished I could swim as him. I wished I was in the water with him, swimming together.My stomach tightened into knots as these thoughts race through my mind. I tried many times to block them off, but I failed. Every single time his head came up the water, it send a prickle all over my skin and I shook.I wanted to have that body of his on mine so bad, and I was even confused of how I was feeling. I had never felt this way towards anyone, I had never felt this kind of attraction that make it difficult to resist him or push back any thoughts about him.Every passing minute I spent with him made the bond I felt towards him stronger, and even though I felt like it wasn’t the best thing, I couldn’t bring myself to stay away from him. I wanted him, I wanted to be with him, I wanted to always be around him, to have him close to me, I wanted everything about him.The thought of having my head on that broad chest of his
