AUTUMN’S POVBreakfast has always been chaotic; it has never been peaceful. Whenever we all come to the dining hall to eat, something is bound to happen.That was what happened this morning, earlier at the dining hall. Sunny was acting like a small slut; well, practically she is one.After breakfast, Matthias requested to see him in his room now. I was a bit anxious about what he was going to say.Going to the math room was never a good thing for me. Something also had to be the problem, and I wondered what it was this time.“Autumn, I need to see you in my room right now,” Mathias said, standing up from the dining table.Mathias, Kavan, and Sunny all just finished arguing earlier. I just nodded and stood up to follow him too.I muttered a small “I will see you later” to Kavan, and he nodded in response. His expression was some how, but I just brushed it off.Closing the door behind me, Mathias just suddenly asked a question that made my heart drop.“Autumn, do you really love my son?
MATHIAS’S POVI woke up earlier than usual this morning. The birds were chirping outside as I stood up to check my room’s view.Of course, my mate Autumn was not with me. She is always not with me, and I made up my mind to curb that behavior today.Mrs. Potts came in shortly after. “Good morning, your bath is ready,” she said. “Is it hot?” I asked. “Yes, it is,” she responded.I needed a hot bath this morning; the cold air was getting to my skin. My skin was becoming pale and white.After bathing, I dressed up in a nice brown silk shirt and wore matching brown pants. My outfits definitely were always on point.“Breakfast is ready, sir,” one of the maids said. “I will be there in a bit,” I said.After getting dressed, I left my room, heading to the dining hall.I also saw Sunny heading to the dining hall as she waited to greet me. “Good morning, sir,” she said.“Oh, sunny! How are you?” I responded. “I am fine, sir, thanks to you,” she replied. “And how are you too?” She added.“I am f
MATHIAS’S POVI do not think we all have had breakfast, lunch, or dinner peacefully since autumn came into the manor and became my mate.We always had to argue about something, whether it was relevant or not.After much awkward silence at the dining hall, I could not take it any longer and requested Autumn to see me in my room.What Sunny said previously was still in my head. Kavan was not in his room the previous night, and the only place he could have been was Aurum's room.He lied that he went out, but we all know that it was a lie.“Autumn, I want to see you in my room right now,” I said, standing up from the dining table.She looked at me a bit startled. I could see the panic in her eyes because whenever I called her, it was either she and Kavan were into something or an issue.She nodded in response, standing up to follow me to the room. She looked at Kavan a little, murmuring a small “I will see you later” to him before we both left the dining hall.Getting to the room, I decid
KAVAN'S POVAfter what Mrs. Potts told me earlier at the kitchen, I had to brazen up and find out about what was truly going on.“How could Marcus do this to me? He is my friend, for goodness sake. How could he betray me, and what was his initial motive behind all this?” I asked myself.Mrs. Potts called me earlier when I left Autumn’s room this morning.She warned me about Marcus and told me how she overheard Marcus and my dad.Marcus was the one who told my dad about Autumn and me. He was also the one who brought Sunny to the manor.He was the one who told my dad about autumn and I actually having a thing and having sex, also bringing someone to my dad for me.“Kavan, please be careful around Marcus. He is very dangerous and deceitful. He was the one that told your dad about everything going on,” Mrs. Potts said.“I overheard their conversation. He's not a good friend, so please be careful around him or even stay away from him,” she continued.“Thank you so much, Mrs. Potts, for you
KAVAN'S POVAfter autumn and my dad left the dining hall, the thought of following them came through my mind, but I shrugged it off.Sunny suddenly started talking to me. She wanted to make up a conversation with me so bad.“Hey there, Kavan,” she said. “And what is it, sunny?” I asked. “Nothing much,” she said.“I wanted to ask you something, Kavan. Do you hate me, Kavan?" She asked. Where could this be coming from? She better not be serious with the question she was asking.“Sunny, do not even start with your weird questions,” I responded. “Just let me be,” I added.She started crying suddenly; I was sure it was fake and definitely not real.“Why are you crying? Stop shedding those crocodile tears,” I said. “But I love you, Kavan. I truly do,” she said. “I am willing to do whatever it is to get you to love me back,” she added. She must be insane; Sunny was a psychotic person who needed medical attention, probably from the healers.“You must be kidding. You do not even know at all,
AUTUMN'S POVAfter fake-promising Mathias that I was going to see him, he finally let me go.“I will come see you later,“ I said. “You have to fall, do not fail me,” he responded.“I will; do not worry,” I said, reassuring him. He finally let me leave, and I thought of Kavan almost immediately.What could he be thinking right now? He must have thought something was going on. I had to explain to him about what happened so he would not misunderstand.“Autumn, how are you?” Mrs. Potts said. “I am fine; how are you, Mrs. Potts?” I responded. “Oh my dear, I am fine,” she replied."Well, that is good,” I responded. “I should get going now; we will see later,” she said and left for the kitchen.I passed the dining hall, and I did not see both Kavan and Sunny. Kavan must be in his room, I thought to myself.I left the dining hall heading to his room; getting there, I saw Sunny hugging Kavan tightly.“Oh, I am sorry for interrupting your guys moments,” I said. I was so pained and also jealous
KAVAN'S POV Sunny came into my room suddenly. “What are you doing here?” I asked. “Nothing much, just came to see my mate,” she replied, smirking.“Well, you are not welcomed here, so leave me alone,” I responded."No, I can't. Don't you love me?” She asked. This girl was fond of asking such stupid and obvious questions; I don't know if she really means it or if she is just making it up.“Well, I don't if that is what you want to hear,“ I replied sacristically. She started crying, shedding tears. “Why are you crying? Just stop that fake and crocodile tears,“ I said.She suddenly came up to me and hugged me. Autumn came in at that very moment, and she was visibly pissed seeing Sunny and me in such a compromising act.I pulled sunny off my body as autumn just kept staring at me. “Oh, I am so sorry for interrupting you and your mate,” she said, wanting to leave the room."No, autumn, it is not what you think, please,” I said, moving close to her. “What do you mean, Kavan?" I clearly sa
AUTUMN’S POVI left Kavan's room shortly after heading to my room.I wanted to freshen up a bit before I go to Kavan's dad's room.Mrs. Potts came shortly after to my room. "Autumn,” she called softly. I turned to look at her. “Mrs. Potts,” I replied softly.“Your bath is ready, autumn,” she said. “But I did not even request for a bath to be made yet, Mrs. Potts,” I responded."Yes, I know autumn. Mr. Mathias asked us to get you ready for the night,“ she said. “He said you were spending the night with him, so we have to get you ready early,“ she added.“Oh, I am not even sure if I want to actually spend the night with him or not,” I retorted."Autumn, you have to do what he says,” Mrs. Potts said. “You have to spend the night with him to avoid any suspicions,” she added.“You know if you keep refusing him or being with him, he is going to get suspicious and probably mad,“ she continued.Mrs. Potts was right; Mathias was hell out of a person. He was truly unpredictable, and you cannot e
