“We have to get the key. No matter what method we use,” Terrence said.I laughed and thought Terrence was crazy from sleepiness. I ignored Terrence. Pull up blankets and make pillows as comfortable as possible.“Do you want to steal the key? What should we do if Grandma finds out that we stole the key?” “We can come up with an excuse to answer Grandma's question,” Terrence replied to my question.I’m not calm.“There are a lot of oddities that bother my mind. Boy ... if that rotten man were still alive he would be a threat to our peaceful life,” Terrence muttered.I yawned. I rubbed my eyelids with the back of my hand and complained. The sound of birds and chickens sounded loudly indicating that the day had begun. The cold morning dawn made me unable to think straight. Terrence mumbled telling me to get some sleep. He caressed my belly gently hoping to get a little movement from the little angel in there.“Morning is coming soon, you'll feel dizzy if you don't get enough sleep.” Terr
“I... I just—“ “You walked into the park in boots, Lady.” She is Mom. I breathed a sigh of relief for a moment if it was Mom. Mom tilted her head and looked at me with a strange look. “Is there anything wrong?” Mom asked me. I shook my head and stepped up to him. Worry hit the heart quickly. I suspect something regarding the herbal powder mentioned by Grandma a few seconds ago. Does Grandma intend to abort the womb? Who is pregnant besides me here? “Katie? Is there anything wrong?” Mom surprised me once again. I shook my head once more. “You’re so weird. Look, your face is so pale.” “I gasped at your presence, Mom.” I lied. Mom raised one of her eyebrows. Mom's unconvincedness to me was clear —she doubted my answer. I tried hard to control my emotions so as not to appear to be hiding something. “I'm not sure you're okay? You're scared of something I don't know, explain it, Katie.”“No big deal, Mom. I was surprised when I saw the hydrangea.”“You're so weird today. I hope y
“I don’t want to eat green tea tarts, Grandma.”Grandma was taken aback by my statement.“What’s wrong, Katie? I ordered a green tea tart for you last night. The green tea tart is still worth eating since it came a few minutes ago.” Grandma muttered in a pathetic tone.“I don’t feel like eating any meals today,” I dodged quickly.“Is that true? You rarely turn down your favorite food, Kate. Why did you reject it all of a sudden?” Grandma asked me.Mom took the box of tarts and said, “Kate is going through hormonal changes. Kate is pregnant for the first time, Mom. Let me take this to Kate’s house and keep it in the fridge so she can eat it any time.”Grandma smiled and nodded. “That’s right, Kate is pregnant for the first time. Kate must have had no appetite and all. There are many struggles to go through when you are pregnant for the first time.”I rolled my eyes in disgust. Grandma’s conversation with a mysterious person a few hours ago pissed me off. Grandma pretended nothing had
Terrence went outside the house at eight o’clock in the evening, before leaving he went to get something from the servants’ bedroom. I don't know what he planned for that night. I didn't know at all until a knock on the main door surprised me. In my mind, it was Terrence who had gone home or some of his stuff was missed. But my thoughts were wrong. It was not Terrence but Thod who visited.“Grandma told me to deliver plums candied.” Thod thrust a transparent mica box filled with candies.I accepted it despite my doubts. Thod had taken the trouble to bring the plums candied to the house–even though it was only a few meters away. I felt like I was a burden for Thod. After all, the road between the wooden bridges had its lights off because it was struck by lightning a few days ago.“You're alone?” Thod asked me.I nodded and invited him inside. Thod stepped in doubt, from the look in his eyes I could read that he was awkward because he was not used to visiting my house. With a courteous
With the advice given by Terrence, slowly I descended the stairs. Anxiety and losing control of myself still ran through my body neatly. The gurgling water in the kitchen makes me curious about who came to visit us during the rest time.“Kate hadn't been seen since just now, had she fallen asleep?”I cleared my throat after realizing it was Mom, I quickened my pace and saw Mom was sitting on the living room sofa. In front of her was a shiny cardboard box.“Have you been sleeping since then?” mom asked me a question.I shook my head.“So, why don't you open the door for me immediately? Did you purposely let me die from the cold?”“You're too melancholy, Mom. You often get cold but all this time you haven't died of hypothermia,” I said.Mom rolled her eyeballs, then glanced at the shiny box in front of her. Mom said that it was the sausage she made. She wanted to give that to me and Terrence when it was warm. I responded with a weird smile.“You know since Tamara and me worked to pay fo
The creak of the iron being cut gave me goosebumps. Judith sharpened the iron with sandpaper until it was clean and shiny. There were three keys that we faked for a few minutes—the key to the graveyard gate, the key to the garden hut, and the key to the medicine room.“Soon this will be over, sir.”“That's good news. I have to return it as soon as possible.”The young man nodded and smiled. He was so deft in duplicating the keys as if he had over a hundred years of experience. A few minutes later the duplicate key was finished printing. Terrence hastily ran into the palace area to return the original keys to Grandma's room.“Excuse me, Lady may I ask a question? Where has Your Royal Highness Queen Isabell gone, Lady?” Judith asked me.“To the orphanage. They had been planning it since yesterday. They invited me to join but I don't have time because we are going to make sure of something,” I answered immediately.Judith nodded politely then signaled that Terrence was running over. I ru
At first, I couldn’t know the tall man but after he ran over to us. I realized it was Jake. Nina's Mate. He panicked when he saw Terrence passed out with a pretty bad wound on his shoulder. Jake asked me what happened that Terrence was so gravely injured. I can't explain because I'm so worried about Terrence's condition.Jake understood this, he struggled to help Terrence to his feet—I helped him open the car door. Made Terrence sit safely beside the driver's seat. Jake provided a soft pillow to cover the wound.“Can you drive a car?” Jake asked me.“I can. But this car, I've never driven a car with a manual transition,” I said.“That's easier said than done. I'm going to visit my grandmother in Winter Ashes, I can't possibly leave you here and just give you the address of the nearest hospital.”“I don't mind if you leave the two of us here. Terrence is already in the car. I can drive this car slowly.”Jake sighed and folded his arms across his chest. “The hospital is thirteen kilomet
I walked into a room with snow-white walls. Inside the room was a female doctor who was checking something on her computer. I greeted her softly, she turned her head and confirmed the location of the round glasses she was wearing.“What are you looking for in my room, Young Lady?” asked the middle-aged female doctor.I lowered my head and introduced myself as part of the Kingdom. The woman nodded and apparently, she was acquainted with Mom. She asked me about my life over the past eighteen years. She knows my age for sure. “I’m fine, Doctor. But there is one thing I want to ask you.” She cleared her throat and then told me to sit down. “Relate to the Duchess, I will make sure the bullet does not damage the muscle tissue in his shoulder. He is still very young. It would be so miserable if he lost his great ability. The backbone of him is so beautiful, indicating that the Alpha who married you is the Alpha with an angel-like personality.” “Sorry, Doctor. But I don't want to talk abou
Kate knocked on the door slowly, a troop who’s in his duty opened door for her. The troop greeted her with polite manner, he prepared a chair for Kate and Kyle. Autumn looked at them in a confused gaze, while Kate handed the baked potatoes to her. “It’s baked potato and cheese. I’m not sure you’ll dig it up, but I had no idea how to get the fresh blood alone. Couldn’t send the troops too.” Kate mumbled.Autumn frowned when she accepted the baked potato. She sighed before chewing on the baked potato. She enjoyed it without complaining about pain in her belly. Kate felt so grateful for it. Kate never known if vampires can enjoy such dishes. Kate was amazed by that because she knows vampires can’t enjoy such dishes. Kate knows vampires can’t chew anything with garlic in it. Autumn wasn’t complained about the garlic either.“When do I get the chance to go home? I missed my mom.” Autumn whispered; her voice was so pathetic.Kate plopped down to the chair, her face turned so pale in a seco
Terrence and Kate walked into their room with hasty steps, moreover Terrence is susceptible to Autumn. Kate walked over her touch up tables to remove her make up, Terrence called her when she’s focused on the mirror.“What’s your opinion about Autumn?” Terrence asked Kate.“What? She’s a little girl.” Kate replied so quickly.Terrence chuckled then looked at Kate, his eyes were so difficult to define. “No. I meant about her genes. Can’t find out what the type of her genes besides vampires. She enjoyed the chicken’s blood like she gulps the strawberry juices.”Kate turned silent, tried to remember when Terrence gave her a glass of chicken’s blood. Kate knows that Autumn gulped the blood without disgust felt. Kate is bothered by the truths, but the fact that Autumn is strayed here makes her uncomfortable. It happened because she was afraid there someone who saw Autumn gulp the blood, Kate aware that werewolves are different from vampires. Other werewolves were distracted by the fact tha
“Yes, we should visit the little girl rooms. I need to make sure that she’s not a riot victim. When the party is over, we can visit her,” Terrence tones.Kate nodded before her eyes fixed on the Kyle who’s enjoying the performance of the magicians. Kate smiled but did nothing. The party was over at 9 pm, all the guests came back to their houses. Terrence and Kate invited Kyle to visit the little girl who’s being treated in the Royal Hospital. He’s about to refuse his parents’ invitation, but Terrence told him to visit the little girl and befriend her.Between another pouted in his face, Kyle agreed and then followed his parents to hospital. The Bell chimed when they opened the door, the troop who’s in his duty jolted. He lowered his head and invited Terrence to sit on the couch. Terrence put his hand up, but his eyes signaled to Kyle to take the couch. Kyle remained silent for a minute, but he walked over to the couch. Terrence stroked Kyle’s hair, while his eyes were fixed to the lit
They walked to the ballroom, as soon as possibles they approached their mom. Crystal looked surprised, however she pretended to be tranquil. Tamara came and sat down near to Crystal, Tamara sighed and pushed her head to her mom a bit. “Did you hear about the vicious pack, they were rioting the other pack.” Tamara whispered to her mom. Crystal turned silent, while her eyes were confused when fixed on her older daughter. “What do you mean? Who were rioting with other packs?” Tamara sighed sadly. “Silver Storm Packs, Mom. Did you remember about them? They stayed rioting with other packs near to our pack. We need to take a firm act to stopping them.” “Tamara, everything they’ve done isn’t our business. We couldn’t take any actions to prevented them.” Tamara sighed sadly, while looked at her mom in disbelief faces. The fact that she heard from her mom jolted her, she wouldn’t believe in her mom. There was a lot deceased werewolf, but her mom acted like there’s not any wrong they have do
“You shouldn’t think that we can deal with every single matter by such a harm, Beth. She is a trapped little girl in the forest, she’s a little girl. How could you accuse she could be a spy? We were an adult. We were the one who could be a good role for our child and our grandchild. I can’t be that careless and There’s not a possibility I’ll let that little girl there.” Crystal mumbled without looking at her guest. “But … Beth’s opinion is making sense. You should be aware. You’ve been kick out your step-niece and your step-nephew. That’s meant to be aware of the dangers.” Someone spoken to Crystal.“Well, I get it. But sometimes we must think in a positively way,” Crystal dodged it, but she still tries to dig in the appetizer before her.The guest turned silent and focused to enjoyed the appetizer without looked at Crystal or Kate. It was a tension between them, the dinner party should be a good time for built the nicer relationship with each other, but today it seems like a little
“Where’s that sound coming from?” Kate walked away. Her steps were faster than before. She left Nina, who was still asking about the mysterious sounds. As she walked, she thought about the strange noise and what it could be. Her mind was running through the possibilities. She was worried about something having happened on the outside. She walked over to Crystal, who was arranging some pricey flowers in a huge vase in the living room. “Mom, did you hear something weird outside? It sounds like a hurt wolf or something like a—” “What are you talking about, Kate? I didn’t hear anything.” Crystal looked at her daughter with a bizarre look that made Kate feel weird. “That sound is so loud, Mom. That’s so impossible you didn’t hear it.” Kate felt her heart start to argue. Crystal shook her head, and her long hair swayed side to side. She finished her activities and then turned around to face her daughter. Her eyes were so hard to define when she looked at Kate. It seemed like she was
It was a big day for Crescent Scarlet Moon, and one that would be remembered for years to come. The royal family was hosting a dinner for all of the prominent families in the kingdom, and it was sure to be a grand affair. Kate’s mom had asked her to help with the preparations, and she was happy to oblige. She knew that this was a once in a lifetime opportunity to see her favorite princess up close.Kate went to the kitchen to start on the berry dishes while her mom went to check on the roasted chicken. She was just putting the finishing touches on the dessert when she heard a commotion from the living room. She went to see what was going on and saw that Kyle was running around the room with the sword. Kate’s mom was frantic, and Kate knew that she needed to help her.
A few years later,Kate is trying to get away while she circles some of the new cages that are being constructed. Because of the storm that hit yesterday, the cages were all messed up, but her uncle was able to fix them. She did so while carrying a toddler's outerwear and walking around the buildings. Meanwhile, on the other hand, two kids were playing around in the horse cages, making mud and messing up everything they approached. They were very excited to play in the mud, and then Kate shouted out loud to them and told them to get out of the mountain of mud.The children disregarded Kate's yell and attempted to run away. However, one of the children was smacked in the head by a horse’s tail, and she fell into some horse droppings. Kate ran to her and helped her to get up.“I
A year later.
