2024-12-09 10:55:35Caroline was blinking her eyes when she saw that her husband’s eyes were the different color that she used to look at. It was not the vivid greens that she loved but rather, it was an endless pool of black holes.
Sweet God, he was a Vampyre!
Caroline knew enough about the gentry that was rumored to have Porphyria which was believed to be affecting them for generations now. It was known to be the main cause of their sickness in their adolescence and when they survived, they have never been the same.
She just could not put through what her husband has in his bloodline.
But of course, he was a gentry, I might have to suspect that he would bear the disease even if I don’t need to ask him, Caroline mused before she was looking at Daniel’s handsome face.
His face was close enough to her as she laid back on the mattress as Daniel trapped her underneath her. If they were in different circumstances, Caroline would be happ

Lord Felix Marshall, Baron of Fell, who was known as Marsh by his friends and family, was sitting in the sitting room of the royal monarch of Niapachad Island. He did not know why he was being called again, after witnessing what his cousin got from getting a kiss from a stranger and a slap from his wife.I don’t think I was built for that life, he mused before the door opened and he stood from the divan that he was sitting in, staring at the fire. The young queen and her husband, the prince consort greeted him in a way that made Marsh being wary of the reason why he was summoned by the Queen herself.“I see that you made yourself at home, Fell,” she said with a mischievous glint in her eyes. Marsh smiled before he was bowing at her and her husband.“I was used to be getting comfortable for the last 3 months,” he said as he was looking at the young couple before the queen took a seat before he did.“So, what do I owe the

Lord Randolph got off the carriage before he helped his wife and daughter out of the carriage for the long ride they had endured. It would only take five days from the capital to go to North Msallste since the young queen Arabella Dragomir was her father to represent her with dealing with her business here.Ava did not know about the details but she was grateful that she would be away from the city’s hustle and bustle for some time. It helped her to think and calm herself before she could function in society again.“Here we are! Isn’t it nice?” her father said as Lord Randolph was showing the huge mansion that was in front of her eyes. Ava smiled before she followed her parents to get a tour of the house. It was huge and it had one story.Ava was shown to her room before she saw that her trunks for her stay were already there. She went to open the curtains. There was dust everywhere and she coughed a little bit.Why does it hav

Ava was smiling when she arrived at the beach that was near the mansion where she was staying for the weekend. Or more than a weekend if she was reading the business that her father was conducting.She sighed when the breeze was hitting her face as the cold air was giving some calming sensation to her body right now. I really should have done this earlier in the day, she mused as Ava was walking down the beach, holding her boots before she was smiling.She was walking along the shore as Ava was looking at the sunset. It was magical and she wrapped her shawl around her body before she explored the shore again. Once in a while, she would be bending over the sand to get the shells that took her fancy before she put them inside her pocket.“What a lovely sight,” a voice interrupted her, and Ava jumped back, ready to fight whoever it was that was sneaking up on her.Jesus, I could have killed someone, she mused when her killer instinct kic

Ava was rushing toward the horse that she tied back at the end of the trail of the meadows that she was exploring before she heard the call of the ocean. She was smiling along the way to the mansion as she rode as fast as she could.I could manage a man if I have been given a chance, Mother, Ava mused before the stable boy came to greet her.“My lady,” he said before he took the horse as Ava was making her way to the mansion. The gas lights were filling the rooms of the house before she was slipping in through the servants’ quarter.She was not dressing in her dress as she was only wearing a white cotton gown and a shawl, barely showing that she was a lady, and her hair was not braided or in a chignon. Hardly acceptable in Society.She rushed through the door and the long hallway before she walked into her chamber, and shut the door as she was untying the bodice and the corset that was holding the gown. Then, she was wrapping he

Ava was looking around in the opera house before her family was taking their seats. She sat next to her mother on the left side and there was a space on her right. She did not assume that it would be a full house tonight but it was, judging by the crowd that was murmuring in the dark right now.“Excuse me, pardon me,” the voice was drawing her to look to her right as the opera house was dimming its lights for the performance to start. Ava can make the silhouette of the person that was coming her way before the figure was sitting next to her.“What a thrilling night,” the figure said with a masculine voice that made Ava feel fluttered in the dim lighting. She smiled despite that she didn’t know the man who was sitting next to her.“It was quiet indeed,” she was surprised that she even intended to speak to this man in the dark.“Are you here for the grand opening?” the male asked before Ava turned to loo

Arabella was sitting in front of the window as she settled in on the patio that was designated there. It was a nice view of the sunset from the seaside cottage that she was occupying with her husband at the moment.The plan was in motion as she was sipping on the blood-laced tea before she felt the hands that were encircling her stomach. She smiled before she turned to look over her shoulder as her husband was kissing her nose.“What are you thinking about?” Aiden asked her before she leaned back into his strong arm. It has always been her anchor and her support throughout these years after she took the mantle and the crown that came with the responsibility of her country. She shook her head.“Nothing,” she replied before Aiden bites her earlobe. She moaned as it had been a few hours since their tumble in bed.But of course, the queen will never give in so easily.“Your nothing always means something. So, you either sp

Ava was riding the horse astride as she knew that people might be surprised to see a Lady riding a horse without her riding habits.How come I wear that when I have a date with a potential suitor? Ava thought grimly before she pulled the rein. She stopped in front of a stable as the stable boy was holding her horse.“How much for a day?” she asked before the boy looked at her.“A Tellu, ma’am,” he said as Ava nodded at him before paying him the money and walked to the center of the Square as she was waiting for her date to show up. But Ava did not have to wait since she was spotting Marsh from afar as he was smiling brightly at her and her heart skipped a beat.Control, Ava, control, she reminded herself as she was smiling when she was looking at the man in front of her.“You’re early, my lord,” Ava said as she curtsied to him. Marsh smiled before he took her hands and kisse

Ava was smiling at the carriage ride as she was holding hands with Marsh right now. She did not know when this developed but after that kiss that they shared, she knew that she was being courted by this lord.Is this what it felt like to be courted to marry? Ava smiled as she felt the hand that was squeezing hers. She turned to look at Marsh before he smiled upon her.“I see that you are quite content with yourself, darling,” he said as he used the endearment that was only reserved for someone dear to them. And right now, Marsh was using that on her. Her heart was beating fast before she blushed and smiled shyly as Marsh was pulling her closer.This is heaven, Ava mused before she was looking at the mansion that was standing still in front of her. She gave the directions to get to her house but she did not classify which one was hers.She just hoped that Marsh did not want to come and greet her parents. She was not ready for

The Duke Who's Devilish Epilogue
It’s been one month. One fucking month until I can get my hands on Aiden’s body. Not that I don’t have anything to complain about but right now, I was relieved that we had escaped the party and the coronation for I was the current monarch with my prince consort.Aiden Dragomir.Niklaus was furious that I would marry a commoner but when I explained to him that Aiden was my soulmate and my demon had been claiming him as mine, he did not have anything to add anymore.He just let me plan the wedding and the coronation on the same day.It was exhausting, of course, for I was running around, cheering when the people of Niapachad Island were coming together to look at me. As well as the only queen who took a commoner as her prince consort.I was breaking history today, people!I sighed as I was leaning against the door when Aiden was removing his cravat from his neck, sauntering inside my bedchambers with the elegance tha

After Arabella left, Aiden was looking around his room for any trace of her. I cannot believe that she tricked me, he thought furiously before he took the clothes that Arabella wore and threw them into the fireplace. He was breathing hard before he was looking at the crackling firewood when his Nana entered the room.“You cannot blame her for why she’s been keeping a secret from you,” she said before Aiden was turning to look at his grandma.“So you know who she was? All this time?” he asked before he snorted. Aiden cannot believe that his Nana herself would not tell him the truth. The old woman shrugged.“Well, it was not my secret to tell and I have been hinting at her to tell you the truth. Perhaps she was afraid that you might be reacting like you are now?” she said before Aiden growled.“It’s not the same,”“No? Then you mustn’t forget the first time when you discovered th

I was looking at myself in the mirror as I was wiping my face. I sighed before I felt the stiff muscles as I slept on the chair last night. Next to Aiden. I smiled before I walked out of the washroom and Aiden was standing outside.“Oh, you’re awake already?” I asked him as he was looking at me. He smiled charmingly before he was nodding.“Yeah, I think I had the strangest dream ever last night,” he said as I was arching my eyebrows.“Oh, do tell?” I said as I was smiling at him. Aiden was looking at me before he shook his head.“You would not believe it,”“Try me,”He took a deep breath before I was waiting for him to continue, “I dreamed that your eyes were bleeding black and you attacked the cronies that my boss was coming at you to rape you. I tried to stop it but I was being stabbed in the stomach. It seems…so surreal that I don’t think I was dreaming a

Aiden was looking at the people that were coming at him at once. He was determined to keep Arabella from getting hurt as his boss and his cronies were going after her.“You son of a bitch! You will share your whore with us!” his boss said before they were coming at him. Aiden was thinking faster than his action. He took his ax and swung it as a form of defense. But of course, it was not going to deter the men from coming at Arabella.“Come on, lads! He just one man, what harm can he do to us?” the boss said before everyone was laughing. Aiden was gritting his teeth before he was slamming his shoulder into the boss. He went down before the cronies were coming at him, punching and kicking him in the stomach as he went down.“Aiden!” Arabella’s shout as he was struggling to keep his head above the attack. It was all his coworkers who did not have any honor or dignity in their blood. They only wanted to have fun and Arabella

Niklaus was looking outside the castle as the sun was on the horizon. He could not get any sleep lately for he feared that his cousin might be in danger. The all lords of the Higher Court were worried about their monarch.“Anything?” Niklaus asked his friend, Baron of Fell, Marsh, before he shook his head. Niklaus sighed before he took a seat at the head of the council meeting. There were five of them, the inner circle that Niklaus trusted to find his missing cousin.Bloody hell, Arabella, why do you have to be so stubborn at times? He thought before Ian was looking at him.“So, what do we do now? We cannot just sit idly and not be taking action about this. The prince will come here any day now and if Her Highness was not around to receive him—”“There will be a catastrophe. I know,” Niklaus said as he was rubbing his dry mouth. He did not know where or when Arabella had been slipping away from the palace but thei

Aiden was cutting the lumber into small pieces so that it would be easier to burn for the winter. He wiped his forehead which was accumulated with sweat before his boss came from behind.“Rough night, Blackwood?” he asked before Aiden turned to look at him. He was regarding the man before he smirked.“You could say that,” he said as he was cutting the log again. His boss smirked.“I bet that woman who warms your bed was worth it then. How much you got her for?”Aiden stopped his work before he turned to look at his boss. He was smirking at Aiden before he smiled charmingly at him.“She’s not for sale. She’s my wife,” Aiden lied smoothly before the boss was blinking his eyes at him.“You’re joking, right?” his boss asked but Aiden just left the conversation there as he was making his way out of the lumber field.“Have a good day then,” Aiden said

I woke up early the next morning because I was excited to get my first job. I know that my job would always be a monarch but to think that I will have an experience outside of state affairs and proposals for once would be the thrill of my life.The dusk was shining with orange sunlight before the sun was on the horizon. I took a shower before I put on the clothes that were provided by Nana for me. She told me that it once belonged to Aiden’s mother and I don’t know if I should be happy or not.I never asked about his parents and sometimes, I wished I had the courage to. But I don’t want to destroy the fragile relationship that we have anymore. I was threading the thread carefully now so that Aiden would be open to me more.If only.I was putting on the chemise before I was putting on the stays that will put my breasts in place. Then, I put on the petticoats, 5 layers of them, right before I put on the gown. It was a modest gown with long

I walked along with Aiden as he was putting his hands inside his pockets. I was looking at him from the corner of my eyes before I was looking at the moon. It was full tonight and everything was perfect in this little moment.I did not know what came over me but my mouth was humming the lullaby that my mother always sang to me whenever I went to bed. And I was doing that right now as Aiden was looking at me strangely.“How do you know that lullaby?” he asked me before I turned to look at him. His emerald orbs were shining under the moonlight.“Hmm? What?”“That song you were humming. My mother used to sing that to me as well,” he said with a hint of sadness before I stopped humming it altogether.“No, don’t stop. It just…no one ever heard that before,” he said as he turned to look at me. “until you,”I smiled before I hummed again the music that haunted both of us. My m

Aiden was making his way into the forest for his job as a lumberjack. He was carrying his favorite ax before his boss showed up in front of him.“Fancy seeing you here at this hour. I thought you might be late again, Blackwood,” his boss sneered before Aiden smiled at him, not feeling threatened by anything.“Well, what can I say? The woman that graced my bed last night was making me sleep late and I have to be here before you can say anything else, so here I am,” he said as he was setting up himself for his job. The boss was arching his eyebrow at him.“I thought you’re not approved of that way of life?” his boss asked him before Aiden shrugged.I am but I will not be telling you, “Perhaps I need to experience it myself before I can judge it,” Aiden said before he put on his protective mask and started on the lumber that was his quota for the day. The boss just nodded at him before leaving Aiden to hi
