"You've made a new friend? Who? Gina?" Philip asked and I nodded my head saying, "Yeah she so nice and friendly I really like her a lot," "Hmm and what about that other one wendy?" "She's still my friend," I responded getting up from the bed and walking around the room. "You look beautiful," he complimented. I raised an eyebrow at him wondering what was so beautiful about me I mean, I was just wearing regular clothes with my hair all over the place. "I'm not even beautiful, I look like a mess!" I responded. "I like mess you are so cute," he replied equally getting up and walking towards me. He wrapped an arm around my waist but I pushed him off making sure that he knew I was uncomfortable. "Not yet there? Okay, I will wait until you are ready," he kissed my forehead and took a step back while I blew out a breath glad that he was giving me a distance. A knock on the door grabbed our attention and it was non other than Gina telling us that lunch was ready. "Let's go love," Phi
"Sir has sent me here, you didn't have lunch," "I'm not even hungry," I said sitting on the bed. "I will just set this here," she placed the tray of food on the bedside table and I looked at it. It looked extremely appetizing and I almost drooled all over. "I will just go now," Gina said leaving the room. I looked at the food again and even though I said I wasn't hungry The food was too good to leave unattended, I grabbed the fork and began eating and in no time the food was all gone! "I knew you were hungry," a voice startled me. I looked on and it was non other than Philip, he was smiling at me "Um," He chuckled lightly and walked towards me "You look beautiful," he complimented "Thank you," I replied smiling lightly at him "Shall we go," "I thought the ceremony is starting at 6pm?" I asked "It's starting at 5pm and this is 5:30pm," "Oh I didn't even realise," I said getting up from the bed We intertwined our hands and walked out of the room heading towards the wo
I looked on and as usual, it was Philip. "What is it, Philip?" I asked him with my eyes fixed on the tv "Why didn't you tell me you were coming here do you know that I worry about you? " "Come on philip you've got guards all over the palace, no need of being worried," I said To him "I can't help it sweetheart I love you and I get upset when you are not in my line of sight," he confessed his feeling but I knew it was a lie. I could feel it inside of me, "you love me?" I asked and he nodded his head saying, "Baby I love you more than life it self!" "Aww that so sweet of you Philip," I responded and he licked his lips while staring at mine. "No kisses!" I pointed out. "Come on, just one and I promise I won't trouble you any more," he pressed on. "No Philip I'm not ready yet, please understand," I said "But Vicky when are you ever going to be ready?" he asked again. "I'm not sure okay I don't know yet but I will tell you when I'm ready," "Promise you will tell me," "I pr
"I um I went to get some water, I was so thirsty," I said to him. "hmm okay then," he didn't press the matter on which I was thankful for and I proceeded to fall asleep recharging myself for the day ahead. *** "Morning came and I was up bright and early ready to take on the day and find my mates where abouts. "Good morning, princess you are awake early," Philip said kissing my cheek once he found me in the kitchen having my breakfast. "Good morning Philip it's a beautiful day isn't it?" I said cheery. "Hmm and you are happy too I'm guessing, you had a good night's sleep? " "Yes as a matter of fact, I did," I said with a wide smiled and he chuckled lightly. "I'm glad you did so tell me did you dream about me last night? is that why you are happy?" "Um not really it's just something else, I will tell you about it later okay," I said to him "Okay, I will wait for that to happen, hope you won't forget right? I want you to share all your happiness with me you get me?" "Yes I
One week later "I can't take it anymore you guys what are we even waiting for? We should be saving my mate by now!" I ranted pacing back and form as everyone just looked at me like I had lost a part of my head. It's been a week since that talk with James and we've been planning ways of saving my mate but non of our plans have actually been making sense. Even James was part of the group now and despite us being many, non of us had the ability to make sensible plans. "Calm down girl," "Calm down? Wendy don't tell me to calm down! It's been a week since we discovered where they were hiding my mate and yet no one has come up with a way to save him and why is that? You just can't imagine how empty I feel right now! Like I can't function properly! I miss my mate I need him and Philip is just making me feel disgusted with his unecenssary touching I hate the fact that he wants to touch me all the time! I hate it! I don't want to do anything with him!" "We will figure out a plan," "Figur
"Yes I know that but okay fine let's go in," I agreed "I've got a bad feeling but I hope this bad feeling is wrong and that everything will work out perfectly," she said as I walked towards the entrance I reached the entrance and my heart was heavily telling me no, saying that I shouldn't do this because I was only going to get myself into bigger trouble. I lifted up my hand about to push the painting on one side but my heart told me not to do it and that I was making a big mistake I decided to ignore the feeling and pulled the paining lightly The walls separated revealing the same staircase that led down to the basement I took in a deep breath walking down there and it was quiet, eerie quiet, there was zero signs of life. I continued walking down until I reached the same vault "Darnell?" I whisper called but there was no response I remembered we were suppose to meet here so then where was he? I asked myself scanning my surroundings I decided to forget all about him and e
"Are we all ready? Is everything set in motion?" I asked everyone and they nodded their heads. Today was the day that we were officially going to free my mate and I was excited and nervous about the whole thing I was excited that I was finally going to see my mate but nervous and scared that something might go wrong and I might get caught. "You won't get caught," mom said standing right Infront me, " mom--" I said looking at her. " I can tell you are scared but don't be okay, everything will work out perfectly and you will have your mate in your arms soon don't worry okay," "But what if--" "no buts and what ifs okay, all will be well. we've been planning this for weeks now and I'm positive all our planning won't go in vain okay,vI know for a fact that everything will work out perfectly," "Are you sure mom? You think all these plannings will get my mate back? I really miss him mom and I badly want him back into my life," I said looking at her and she lightly caressed my cheek
I saw a glass coffin in the middle of the vault and I walked towards it with my heart beating loudly. Getting near the coffin, I peaked through and a gasp escaped my lips when I saw my mate lying there. His body was gray with dark veins showing all over his face, his lips were cracked on various spots. He looked like a genuine corpse and I couldn't help but feel outraged that Philip had the audacity to do this to my mate. Not willing to wast more time I pushed open the glass cover over the corpse but the moment I held the dagger " I wouldn't do that if I were you," A voice said startling me and before I knew it, three figure appeared out of nowhere, Philip and a lady that I didn't know but judging by the aura she was giving me, I could tell she was a witch Fuck I'm screwed! "You thought that doing that sleeping spell was going to make me fall asleep well guess what I'm not that gullible, I knew the extent of your powers and I prepared myself in advance," he took out a small neck
