AMARAI snuck to see Roman, his wounds needed to be tended to. He was really brave to endure the beating. If it were another, he'd have broken." Hi, Roman." I whispered, watching as he groaned when he attempted to sit upright." Amara." He whispered." I'm sorry about this." I apologize. " How did you manage to come here?" He asked." Micheal." I pointed the lamp in his direction, and unlocked the door. I washed the wounds with antiseptic, he groaned at the impact.I could only imagine the pain he was going through.I moved on to rub the balm on his back.The healer took a liking to Sylvia, and since then, she had been helping us. She helped Nolan get better too.He groaned, loudly. I stopped as I heard a footstep approaching. I switched off the lamp.Micheal said he has distracted everyone. It was dark. My heart panted. If I was caught, it would be brutal.Anita would do worse than what happened to Roman.This was big trouble. Shockingly, it was Conan. I heaved a sigh of relief."
AUTHORThe room was brown walled, no too much decoration, very simple. It had a soothing aura. Diana supposed it was either because she was here for the first time, or because it was a healer's house.There were too many bottles in the room, and Diana wondered the use of all of them.From where she sat, her eyes caught a shiny object wedged between the door.Curiosity led her towards it. Behold, it was a chain, emitting heat.'How is that even possible?' She reached for it, and it moved.She reached for it again, and it moved. Her hands almost touched it, and it slid under the door. That was weird.She reached for it the third time and it wedged itself in between the crack in the door."Good morning your highness." The healer.Her back stiffened. A blush formed on her face, as she stood up awkwardly." Morning." She replied. The healer's face betrayed no emotion.But she felt that she was laughing at her." I have a complain." Diana started.Diana looked distraught. " Please have your
AUTHOR'S POVConan extricated himself from Diana's arms. There was nothing to say anymore since Amara left. " I'd like to spend the night here."His head swung up, and saw Diana stretching on his chair, reluctant to leave.That equated to having sex with her. He couldn't do that to Amara. He thought about Amara everytime he kissed Diana." I have some work to do." He refused. That excuse was getting old and annoying. For over six months, it had been one excuse or the other. The potion was said to make her irresistible, and it didn't work.She took it in the morning. It needed to circulate in her system." I'll wait." She declared, and she moved to his bed, stretching languidly like a cat.Conan shook his head. It was going to be a hectic day.As he flipped the pages, his eyes caught a circled word *LEVY*He went back to it, and saw that last month a pack received levy twice. The Blood Moon pack.He wasn't aware of any levy. He flipped back to the previous month. It was marked paid
CONANRocky and I came to a mutual understanding. There was no bad blood whatsoever between us anymore. We arrived at the pack at the wee hours in the morning. I guess it was 4am or thereabout. My watch was still dripping from the rain, and it was unreliable.Hopefully, Diana would have exited the room before I got back." Where are you coming from?" She enquired, and I winced at her loud voice. " Went to check out something." I explained." That's why you had to visit Amara." She accused.I sighed and shook my head at her ridiculous accusation. I went to my closet, went to take and bath and change my cloth in the bathroom.Was she blind not to see that I was drenched? Drama was the last agenda on my mind.Walking towards the door, with that thought in mind." You know it's true, that's why you're leaving. Coward, and cheat!" " Go like you always do. You abandoned Amara in the first place. What do I expect?" She said spitefully, immediately I got to the door.I stiffened, and It
Amara's POVI resumed my chore at Diana's room. Luckily, she was not in the room when I got there. I was late to get there, so I made sure that I cleaned as fast as I could, to make sure that she didn't get that I was late. I was cleaning the windows when Diana walked in. Her profile hostile but I greeted her, which she hissed in return.I paid her no mind, because i wasn't the cause of her predicament. "Get me a glass of water." She ordered. I returned hastily with one, which she didn't sip.I was almost done with my chores when she poured the glass of water on the floor.I had gotten better at controlling my anger. She wanted me to react, and I had grown past that." I'm sorry, your highness." I apologized, as i moved to the puddle of water, and cleaned it quietly.I smiled inwardly at the perplexed look on her face. She wasn't expecting that. If Anita learnt that a legend lived in me, she would kill me off, immediately. Literally. A web of lies would be spun around and I woul
AUTHOR'S POVThings were not going as smoothly as it should. Diana and Conan were rumored to be heard fighting down the hall. No one knew the source of their problems. It was on one of the days that Amara went to clean Conan's room, that she witnessed their fights." You are not worthy to be called the Baron, You spineless wimp!" Diana shouted.That was an insult to his ego but Conan continued working on his account sheet. He ignored her, but clenched his fist tightly."Hit me! You moron!" She hit his chest.Conan tuned her out, as he took a look at Amara watching what was going, probably wondering what was going on. She wouldn't know that she was the cause of their disagreement.Amara winced at the utter disrespect, and wondered what could be causing such quarrel in the lovebirds camp."And you! What are you looking at?!" Diana screamed.She bowed her head. She was trying to stay away from trouble. She was cleaningDiana marched towards her, " You want to take my man? You a girl wit
Anita's POVI laughed. There was no way that he would be able to withstand that pain. The pain from the beating was bearable.He knew that I wouldn't mind cutting off all his toes if refused to cooperate.Even if they succeeded at what price, his toes? No one was so sacrificial that he would want to die for another person."Now you're talking." I said, "Take him back to the dungeon." I instructed them.They locked the door to the entrance of the dungeon."You can leave." I ordered. I wanted to be the only one that knew the people that helped Nolan and Anita escape. "So, what do you say?"I asked. " A man from the west." He replied, groaning in pain."What man from the west?" I asked."I don't know, my job was to allow them leave but I over heard them saying a certain man from the west would be waiting when they left the pack." He said in a rush."They said he was tall, as the mountains, that's all I know, I swear." He replied. I think he was telling the truth. That should be Damini
AUTHOR's POV It was morning, when Amara woke up. She stood up quickly, Conan was still asleep, so she put on her clothes. She shook Conan gently. He had to dismiss the guards so she could leave. Conan roused gently, watching Amara fidgety. She was very beautiful. He wished for her to stay. If he had his way, the spell from yesterday looked broken. She was back in her work mode, and Conan sighed. It wouldn't be easy to get her into that loving mode. " Good morning, Amara." He greeted. " Good morning, ____" She trailed off. She didn't know whether to call him Conan or Baron. "Have breakfast with me." Conan asked, and her eyes flew to his. What was he doing? She needed to leave, a guard would see her. They were expected to start going about their chores. If they found out that she wasn't around, there would be a great problem. "I'm sorry, I would have to refuse." She replied. Conan stretched, and moved to the door. "Get me Sylvia to send my food upstairs." He instructed a
