Chelsea

I was close to this beast without knowing it. Not only that but I was touching him. If Alastair wasn’t here right in time, he would have gotten what he wanted.

“That—” he said with a nonchalant wave of his hand. His gaze intensified with a glimmer of excitement. “—Glamour, sweetheart. I had glamoured you into thinking that you lust after me.” And he appeared to take pride in it. “It was just okay until the mere presence of Alastair elevated the atmosphere and ruined my glamour. Sheesh. I hate his powers.” added Reagan.

“That’s obvious. You guys practice all these things there.” It was Kai who retorted. The presence of the man had nearly slipped from my consciousness.

And yeah about the glamour, he was right.

One of the most prevalent abilities of the creatures in Flame Falls was the ability to cast glamour to cause someone to believe or see something that is not true. I should have remembered it before.

“The dark arts, I take it?” Reagan said as he held Kai with his eyes. “It’s

    ChelseaThe double wooden door had the frame and designs made with glided gold, shouting luxury. However, that was not what made me nervous but the person inside. Would he take my life for the audacity of explaining myself in-person? My heart raced as I heard the footsteps approaching the door from within, and I swallowed hard in nervousness. I took the chance to fix my hair before the door was opened. “Who...” his question died in his throat as I met his gaze. For a fleeting moment, it appeared as though he had been robbed of his capacity to stir, respire, or utter a single word. I coughed delicately to announce my presence. “Chelsea.”It was only at that moment that he began to react. With a quick flutter of his eyelids, he blinked. His face was so blank. He didn’t expect me here. I, too, did not.“Why—” Alastair's breaths came out in ragged gasps. “Why are you here?” He continued to grasp the doorknob.“I was supposed to bring your breakfast.”His ocean eyes, which had previously

    Alastair“Now that I didn't conform to your warnings, you want to hate me, right?” Her words kept me off guard. She spun fanciful tales in her mind, heedless of their coherence or veracity.Oh! Hold on...Her behavior was far from ordinary. Reagan did not compel her to do anything, yet he had his own way. Fuck!How had it eluded my grasp until now?Glamour. It was the fucking glamour. Reagan had ensorcelled her, convincing her that she harbored a deep desire for him and that she was nothing more than a harlot, despised by all.Wasting no more seconds, I seized her arms and pulled her close enough to breathe in the same air. “Chelsea. I don’t hate you.” Tears streamed down her face as she gasped for air.“You do. Everyone does.”The realization dawned upon me that the matter at hand was far from being uncomplicated. The glamour had involved her real emotions, or the real incidents she went through, or maybe some words that had cut deep through her heart that were casting her back to th

    ChelseaPrepared to experience my very first strangle, I grasped his wrist and stuffed more oxygen inside my mouth. The sounds within my mind had dissipated. The mind had been purged, only to be replenished by an overwhelming sense of dread. Questions packed my mind. The sadness was replaced by confusion.If he kills me, would he be happy?At that moment, I swallowed and felt his grip gradually loosen, his thumb delicately grazing the bulge of my throat. My face quickly became flushed. Breathlessness overcame me.It was not like how I expected it to be....He wasn’t killing. Yet, he was killing me.Before tilting my head to the side to allow his lips access to my neck, his fingers moved to my nape and his lips gently exhaled against my skin.The picture of last night flashed right in front of my eyes. His touches had magics that my body craved so dearly.The area nestled between my thighs became damp. The depths of my shame knew no bounds, for in that moment, all sense of reason abando

    Alastair We were about to begin with breakfast and my frustration for the earlier event was stifling deliberately until a knock on the door interrupted us. Fuck it. I heard Chelsea sigh in relief, or ease or whatever when I walked toward the door and opened it. A maid, who probably had run here, bowed to me. “Your Highness. Luna is calling everyone to join the breakfast.” The vein across my temple twitched as I bit back a curse. It would be an upright lie if I say I didn't expect it. Although this little unfortunate maid had no faults, I wanted to let my anger burst and show her hell just because of ruining the moment. I didn't. Instead, remained calm and nodded and gestured at the woman who sat on the couch. “Don’t move these foods until she touches at least ten items and tries at least five of them.” “She doesn't need to waste time here. I will finish—” Chelsea began to whine from behind only to confirm my doubts of her leaving the room once I leave. I spun around and tilted

    Alastair I cleared both my mind and throat the moment I entered the dining room. My mother, my uncle Mr. Valek, his sixth or probably seventh wife Mrs. Giana, and Reagan were already there. Reagan ignored my presence just how I ignored his even though I was still in the urge to cut his balls off for touching her. “Alastair.” My uncle came forward to pull me into an embrace but I had to stop him by grabbing his hand and shaking it fiercely without offering the greeting he wished for. He wasn't taken aback at all. He expected it. Grinning, he said. “Oh, right. You don't hug.” And mom said he was sick. “And it's amazing that you forget it every time.” I retorted with a straight face, my voice as cold as ice. After letting go of his hand, I turned to Mrs. Giana. Taking her hand, I kissed the tip of it welcoming a smirk to my lips. “I am so glad that you make it with Mr. Valek till this fourth meeting.” It was surprising since most of his wives don't last for the fourth meeting.

    Alastair “Stressed?” Rhett queried. After breakfast, he suggested getting a drink in the cellar. We were taking the elevator to the underground where it was built. “Stressed!” As the lift doors parted, I reiterated his utterance and we strode forth into the cellar. Until a while ago, the conversation had been about him, and flame falls. I was curious if he had a little chance against his brother. He did, yet he refused to make an attempt. And so, after all that had transpired, the subject of his choosing was now directed towards me with a sharpened focus. Since Alice divulged her scheme to guide the slave to that forbidden graveyard, I decided to be reticent and that must have bothered him. “Is it even worth my redundant thoughts?” I queried. Neither of us was under any illusion that it was so. Alice had been prepared for the battle against me for ages. Her heart was consumed with a fierce determination to claim the throne, to seize the position of authority, and to wield the po

    Chelsea Throughout the entire time, I had been compelling myself to taste a few of the opulent foods adorning the table. It was not like I hated them. The core of my unease lay in the persistent gaze of the maid named Shopia. Her unwavering scrutiny had become an incessant presence, one that refused to be shaken off. I requested her to join me for breakfast. She refrained from laying a finger upon anything, for she fears the disapproval it would surely elicit from Alastair. I encouraged her to sit down. She said the same thing. Really, everyone was scared to death by that man. I didn't pressurise her. I didn't want to make her feel uncomfortable. But she was doing it to me instead. Her gaze, with its luminous brown irises, remained unwaveringly fixed upon the sensitive curve of my neck. Perhaps it was the allure of my neck.Not being able to take it anymore, I ran a hand on my neck to distract her and cleared my throat. “You are not into women, are you?” Our eyes locked, a silent co

    Alastair “What's yours?” What's mine? Why was I fighting? Why was I not giving up? Why was I devoting my entire life just to rule this kingdom? His inquiry indeed provoked every bone that comprised my skull. I had the answer, yet I had no idea if it was reasonable enough or not. For me it was. To be exact, it was more valid than anything I had ever known but for others, it might not be. “A promise.” I spoke. “A promise?” he asked. I nodded. “I am not sure what—” Rhett and I halted our conversation, our ears pricked up to the noise that was rapidly escalating above us in the ceiling. Someone was pacing erratically on the first floor, her voice echoing through the dining hall situated directly overhead of our position in the cellar. "Shut the fuck up," she spat at someone else with a venomous tone. Both of us, Rhett and I, were perplexed since the feminine tone was strikingly familiar. “I told you to shut up.” Another warning was issued by the voice. “Lara?” Beside me, Rhett

    His order had a tone of possessiveness. The fact he wanted her to hate her ex-boyfriend was something that set her in bewilderment. The flare of fury wasn't there in his eyes anymore. He ordered, but at some points, it seemed like pleading, as if his eyes begged her to do what his mouth had said.“You got that?”Only when she nodded, he moved away whilst her reddened eyes trolled to the lump of his throat that bobbed what felt like nervousness.“You shouldn't even attempt to do anything reckless. I would despise that.” With that, he trudged out of the room, didn't bother to steal a second glance at her who already had tears flowing down her cheeks.Ryle left the crypt when he received a call from the Prince. He ordered him to be in the study as soon as possible. Ryle saw the dead body of the guard and already assumed something bad had happened. It was another guard who confirmed that the female Alpha brought here saw Lucian. She wasn't supposed to know about this secret. The mess was

    “Your highness. Is there anything wrong?”Alastair, who had his attention fixed on the patio, let out a loud snort in response to the inquiry that was posed by the guard standing next to him. "Who was in charge of doing the monitoring thingy that was supposed to be done in this area?" He asked, gaze still not leaving the terrace.“I made sure there was no one around.” The guard retorted confidently. “But is there anything wrong, your highness?” The way his Prince sounded did not give him any good vibe.Anxiety erupted throughout the guard's body as Alastair hissed and gripped the back of his neck with his sharp claws digging into his skin. Because of the potentially dangerous tension, the other males there became numb in their spots.Soon after, the Prince decapitated the guard by snapping his neck to his left, and blood gushed out of his body. “Then who is that, Mister fartknocker?” He gritted his teeth dangerously whilst his lips formed a smile at his mate who had been watching his

    Days were passing by so fast like in a blink of an eye. Alastair came to sleep daily after that night but late. Either Chelsea would be sleeping or he would fall asleep faster without saying a word to her. In the morning, Chelsea never found him in the room. She couldn't help but wonder what time on the earth he leaves and what mystery he unravels so early in the morning.The rest of the palace remained unchanged except for the fact that Reagan had left, she didn't know when but it was indeed a relief.“There, Chelsea.” Kai lifted his forefinger to point toward the wood behind the palace. “We used to fight there with each other every single day.”“Every single day?” asked Chelsea. Her stare followed down the direction he had indicated. From the elevation, she could appreciate the crowns of the trees, and the narrow pathways that led to the deeper parts of the forest.Chelsea took a few deep breaths while holding the terrace's fine concrete balustrade and allowing the clean air to invi

    After the error appeared on the screen, Alastair slapped the keyboard in frustration and turned in the direction from where the sound of gasps filled the room. “Why are you here?” asked Alastair.He wasn't even ready to see Chelsea let alone the company she had brought. However, he assumed it was otherwise; Kai was the guide here, Chelsea was his client. It was not his first time. Whenever Alastair spared himself the space, Kai would be there to seize a share of it with a company Alastair despised. For the company he brought this time that Alastair undoubtedly didn't detest, he couldn't bark at him.The blank stare he conveyed to Chelsea bombed her rational mind with the flashbacks of last night. Her cheeks blossomed red. “W-we will leave.” She pulled Kai's hand in order to leave with him. However, as they proceeded to leave, Alastair's voice stopped them.“You can stay.”Kai, the most dumbfounded one, tilted his head. “Who? Me?” The Prince gave him a cold questioning look and it too

    In the morning, Chelsea woke up on the bed. Her body itched when she stretched her arms and neck. The spot between her thighs ached a little too. To the soreness, her drowsy eyes flipped open and she was welcomed by the thick blanket that covered her body, Alastair's wrinkled white shirt that she wore, and the vibrator that saved her life on the nightstand. Abruptly, pink grew across her cheeks.The entire night Alastair was sitting on the couch while she pleased herself with that thing. He made it seem like her moans didn't bother him at all, but she clearly noticed the bump on his pants and she didn't even know why she was glad to see him suffering. Yes, he, Alastair, the great Prince suffered. Yet, he didn't do one simple thing! He didn't dare to touch her. Because she had made it clear before that she didn't want him to touch her.It took her three hours to finally reach her sweet spot and see the stars. It was almost dawn by then and at that time, he was the one who seemed to be

    [Warning: Chapter Contains mature content. Not suitable for young readers. Feel free to ignore if the content makes you feel uncomfortable.]Alastair never came across a woman so confident like her in ages. Regardless of being foreign to the concept, speaking her heart didn't even cost her a single stutter. Thrilled, he began to instruct her. “Lie on your back on the bed, cover yourself with the blanket, and...” His words paused at the knock on the door and an evince of relief went evident on his face.By the time she was getting ready on the bed heeding his guidance, he had reached the door and opened it slightly, careful not to let the outsider get an inside view. Chelsea wasn't surprised. It would have been more surprising if he hadn't had any visitors.Facing Alastair, Ryle who stood behind the door holding a plastic bag gave the Prince a cautioned look. “Here is your parcel. I hope it helps.” Saying, he handed the bag to him. In the middle of the night, it was so awkward and hard

    ChelseaBobbing his throat, he met my gaze again which I assumed had narrowed to slits. Even my eyelids felt too heavy.The next moment, without him realizing it, I tried to push him away, hoping to create some distance between us, but he remained steadfast, only withdrawing his arm to stuff his hands into his pockets."Stay away from me. When you are close, you make me have so many stupid thoughts..." I mumbled, my voice barely above a whisper. But Alastair didn't budge. His eyes narrowed, his lips curving into a sly smile that made me feel exposed."I would love to know about those," he declared, his voice husky and sending shivers down my spine. My cheeks grew even hotter, and I could feel his words seep into my very core. I was becoming increasingly aware of his effect on me, both physically and mentally. It was overwhelming.But I couldn't help but feel a mixture of frustration and confusion. How could I let myself be so affected by Alastair? It was as if he had some unseen power

    ChelseaHe seemed caught completely off guard by my question. Alastair, with his chin held high, had his back resting against the wall. His eyes fluttered in confusion as he responded, "What are you talking about?" It was clear that he was not expecting me to remember what had happened while I was under the influence of the desires, and he seemed to think that would give him an advantage.Determined not to let him manipulate me, I stood my ground and insisted, "You know." My voice came out hoarse and insistent, a reflection of the pain and frustration that were slowly overpowering me. My breath was getting heavier with every passing second.He crossed his arms over his chest and shook his head. "No, I don't," he replied, a hint of irritation in his voice. I could tell he didn't like lying, and his expression was so transparent that it was easy to see through his façade.A sarcastic smile played on my lips as I retorted, "I thought you hated liars." I wanted to remind him that he was a

    Alastair, who was attempting to hide a smirk on his face, shoved his hands into his pockets and cleared his throat. "I have no problem with that." The one thing that stood out to him most about Ms. Beth was the fact that she was always willing to provide a hand whenever he required assistance.Chelsea's face was devoid of colors as she blinked at Ms. Beth who was still determined on what she had declared and then, averted her gaze at Alastair. He didn't seem to dispute any time soon. Instead, he was more than eager for her to tie his tie for him. Jerk, this word was formulated for him."I don't know how to...""Well, I can teach you that... of course, if you want." Alastair had cut her words off and given her a wicked look."Fine." She gritted her teeth through a tight grin and rose from the bed with an abrupt force. Honestly, she knew how to tie a tie. She had seen her father wearing it, she had seen Lucian wearing it on occasions. She had learned from them well. But what she didn't
