Chapter 115

Esme's POV

We arrived at Diane's chambers in no time, "wait here" I instructed Odelia and knocked on the huge mahogany door before me.

"Come in" Diane's calm voice called from inside.

I pushed the door open and walked in to see her standing on the window side, her back against me. She turned to face me, a faux smile on her face.

I curtsied respectfully, "Your Majesty"

"Please sit" she returned, gesturing towards a vacant seat in the room.

I walked towards it as she carried a tray of tea to join me, "Tea?" She asked as she tilted the jug to pour some into the teacups.

My eyes narrowed suspiciously at her, is she trying to poison me now?

"Don't even think about it Esme, I can't do anything rash, especially after Silvan's warnings. Besides, he knows I sent for you so poisoning you will only put me in more trouble" she uttered with a sigh.

I nodded slightly as she poured some for me before filling her cup too.

"Drink up, it's made from ginseng, I made sure to add enough honey

I asked Paul who gave me a lopsided stare."Worried about her now?""Just answer the question Paul" I returned coldly and sensing that I was in no mood for jokes, he cleared his throat."I haven't seen Miss Sophie for some time now. If you want, I can go see her after now to know how she is faring""No, let's go together" I stated and he bowed in acceptance. "What have you found about instances

    Chapter 118Esme's POVIt’s been days since Ira spoke to me and my anxiety has been at its peak. Every day, I call out to her but get no response in return. Coupled with the side talks of the servants about my inabilities, I was scared of what the outcome would be if Ira was truly gone.I didn’t need to be told that if on the coronation day, my Lycan wasn’t back, I would be regarded as a degenerate and won’t be eligible to be Luna. Even the love I and Silvan share will not be enough to convince the people.I needed to have my lycan back, even if I do not have any power or ability, it is better than being a total degenerate. Besides, not having Ira back will only mean that I have lost to Diane and every other member of the Lycian Empire who doesn’t wish me, Queen and wife to Silvan.I decided to let Silvan know of my fears once again as regards Ira’s absence but before then, I resolved to help in preparing dinner.

I blushed shyly as the urge to touch his long lashes and rub his flawless face nudged at me.Instead, I snuggled into his chest more and he held me even tighter. It feels so peaceful in his arms, I wanted to remain here forever."Urgh, it feels like I've been sleeping for years" I heard someone groan in my head and stirred slightly.Wait, in my head? I sprung out of bed with my eyes open, "Ira?"Silvan sat up too, his eyes filled with concern as every atom of sleep fled from his eyes."Ira?" I called again, "Is that you?" "Yes, it's me, were you expecting another?" Her snarky voice replied and I involuntarily jumped on Silvan who instinctively held me in place."She's back! Ira is here!" I exclaimed in joy pulling him in a big hug.He returned the hug, a smile tugging at the corners of his lips. I could feel our bond reigniting as our Lycans joined once again. Ira couldn't be happier

Silvan pulled our interlocked hands to his lips and kissed my knuckles lovingly, his eyes fixed on mine."That was amazing, Thank you princess" he uttered with a flirtatious wink. My cheeks turned a deep shade of red as I shyly bit my lips. He hovered over me and kissed my lips deeply."I love it when you bite them" he uttered huskily as he lay back down, referring to my lips."What are your plans for today?" I asked, trying to divert from the conversation which was starting to have an effect on my body."Well, I have about two hours before the morning court, how about we do something fun before the time?" Silvan returned, a boyish grin on his handsome features."What do you have in mind?" I asked, curiosity laced in my tone. "I was thinking of showing you around, sort of like a tour around the kingdom. I would love to show you my favorite places in the empire"

It was already past two hours and the morning court needed to be held, hence the necessity of leaving.I hugged her from behind while kissing her nape lovingly as she washed the dishes in the kitchen sink. "I promise, we will be back" I promised her. Esme nodded in understanding and I left her to gather our items so that we could leave.After some minutes, we left the penthouse. the excitement she felt while coming was very different from now, she just kept looking out the window as we made our trip back to the empire."Can I come along?" She requested politely as we came down from the car."No princess, I can handle it" I returned and kissed her forehead before hurrying out and into the meeting hall still in the outfit I wore."Alpha" they greeted in unison."What's going on?" I asked almost impatiently, settling on my seat. The members of the council exchanged glances and I sighed heavily."I apologi

I pulled out of the hug still grinning widely."Good morning, My lady" she greeted."It's Esme" I corrected jokingly, it felt weird to hear her address me with such respect. Lois is more like a good friend than a subordinate."How have you been Lois?" "Very well my lady, I'm happy to see you""Same here. Are you free? What do you say we hangout now?" I offered in excitement but she shook her head negatively."No, My lady, I have to attend the council meeting""Oh, that's right" I mumbled under my breath, my smile faltering into a small frown."Esme" Lois called my name but in a panicked tune, "there's something you need

I still couldn't believe that he was alive.I stared deep into his eyes and felt tears almost building up in mine.He ran his hands lovingly through my locks and kissed my forehead softly.“I missed you so much, Silvan. I was so worried. I thought that I would never…”" Shhhh,” he said hushing me gently. "I am here now. I'm just glad that you are safe. I was just as worried as you and I feared that you would never wake up again.”He kissed me tentatively on the lips and I groaned softly as his soft tongue wrapped around mine. Being asleep for almost three weeks was more than enough time to make me crave his touch hungrily. I missed him, and now that I had him, I wanted him deep inside me.He pulled away and stroked my locks.“You should get some rest. Your bruises still need to heal and I'll ask the maids to get you so

    Chapter 135Esme's POV I felt very hungry in my sleep and had to force my eyes open. Not expecting to be met with so much brightness, I squinted my eyes to slowly adjust to the light in the room. I stared out the window, different thoughts running through my mind. I recognize the room as the one I shared with Silvan back at the empire."Silvan!" I suddenly called and sprung out of the bed. My thoughts were correct, I was back home at the palace, but how?Images of how I had witnessed everyone die flashed in my head and I quickly hurried out of the room."Silvan!" I called again but got no response."Rue!""Paul!""Amy!" There was nobody in sight even as I called Their names, I began to wonder if I was in a dream."My Lady" someone called from behind and I turned to see Odelia, the young maid whom Silvan had once made to attend to each of my needs.Instinctively, I pulled her in a hug, my heart palpitating in trepidation. Feeling her body on mine made me realize that this was realit

    Chapter 134Esme's POVMy heart wrenched in pain as I screamed out my lungs. Silvan lay on the floor, blood oozing from his lips and the cuts on his face.Tears poured out of my eyes as I stared at Silvan's limp body on the cold floor. The exchange of gunshots had seized as everyone stared at Silvan's body as if in a trance. Mustering the last energy I had left in me, I pulled on the chains on my hands with all my strength. Seeing Silvan's state seemed to fuel my energy as I felt myself break out of the chains that were used to hold me down.Pushing Lois's already cold body away, I quickly rushed to Silvan's side, not minding the fact that my chest was not properly covered.I scooped him in my arms, his blood soiling my clothes entirely. "Someone call the ambulance!" I yelled desperately, rubbing my hands on his."My King" I called tearfully, my voice croaky and filled with pain.He smiled sadly, "I'm sorry I broke my promise" he whispered, his eyes peering into mine."Who cares abo

My heart was palpitating with fear and my body longed to be released from the binds that held me down.I could hear Kane laughing hysterically and closed my eyes in pain. A drop of tear slipped out of my eye as I clenched my jaws to keep the pain in.As if on cue, the door burst open and a fiery-looking Silvan barged in alongside Doran and Paul. There were a whole lot of guards that came in with him too and they were fully armed.I wasn't expecting it but just as they entered, Kane's men took their stance as well. The two groups pointed guns at each other, staring at themselves eyeball to eyeball.I heard Kane hiss from his seat beside my bed, "What a party pooper. I wasn't expecting you until I drained her empty" he complained with an eye roll.Silvan eyes instantly widened as they fell on me, "What are you doing to her?" He demanded and started rushing towards Kane who quickly began to yank the wires out of

So what's next?"Sophie was led inside the room, she curtsied politely, "Greetings Alpha, you sent for me"I made to grab her hands but stopped midway and glared dangerously at her."What do you know about Kane of Hammock Corporation?""Mr. Kane?""Is there any other Kane you have been intimate with?" I slammed impatiently.Her face turned red with embarrassment at my outburst, I instantly realized my fault and cleared my throat noisily, "Come with me," I said simply, moving out of the room.

Though the room was dimly lit, I could hear the beeping of a machine beside me."You are awake finally"I could recognize his annoying voice from miles away, I turned my head towards Kane's direction. Amidst the injury he had sustained from me, he had an excited look on his face"Where am I?" I demanded coldly."Heaven" he replied with an evil cackle.I gave him a proper stare to see that he has some wires attached to his body and then it hit me, I was still in that damned room and on the bed he had flung me on.But I thought he shot me, how come I am still living?"It wasn't a real bullet" he answered as if reading my thoughts, "it's a sedative dart"I winced as I felt something leave my body, Kane smiled broadly, "I have been waiting for you to wake up since.

I called out in panic and heard no response, the space was eerily quiet and I stopped in my tracks, taking my time to slowly observe my environment.There was no one in sight, the only item in the room was a single bed and stool beside the bed. It looked like a sick bed but there was nobody on it.Ira was on full alert, she began to trace Silvan's scent around the dimly lit room but he was nowhere in sight. The closing of the door made me spin around to see Daniel holding a bat and staring at me ferociously. I looked into his eyes and gasped at how emotionless it looked.He slowly locked the door while keeping his eyes pinned on me,"Silvan isn't here, is he?" I asked in a calm tune, my eyes watching his grip on the bat and the cold look on his face, he shrugged and moved the ba
