Daniel's P.O.V I stared at woman sleeping peacefully in my arms with a peaceful smile on her face. And, somehow it was bringing me so much happiness I couldn't explain. I think being a normal couple like this, isn't so bad after all.Her flower like smell that filled my nose was rather enchanting. And, the way she was sleeping in my arms was making me want to eat my wife alive.Come on, Daniel. We don't have time for R18 now! My subconsciousness scolded me as I gently placed flower's head on the soft pillow, getting up from the bed.Ugh! Can't I just sleep tonight in her arms. She never let me does that recently. And, she just looked so relaxed and laid back like the Eleanor I first met in the black woods. I answered to my subconsciousness, pulling the sheets over my lovely wife and tucking her in, gently kissing her forehead. Well, if you didn't have to figure out about her father's curse and the black magic stuff. Maybe, you could do that. My subconsciousness retorted as an audib
Eleanor's P.O.V "Good Morning." An awfully familiar voice rang in my ears as I fluttered my eyes open, to find no Daniel but the past Eleanor in place of him.Panic immediately rushed through my body as I tried to make sense of the situation. How could Eleanor be sitting here, right before my eyes? All I ever met her was in the black space in my mind. How is she here?Or, is it Daniel who has shape-shifted into me? But, vampires can't shapeshift. Or, can they?My mind raced with questions and confusion, causing a million thoughts to conduct a marathon in my head.I blinked, hoping that this was just part of my imagination, but Eleanor remained seated in front of me on the chair, her warm smile making me feel both comforted and unsettled. What is she doing here? I couldn't help but notice a slight sadness in her eyes, as if she was carrying some hidden burden on her. But, what burden did she have to carry as a soul?"What... What are you doing here?" I stammered, struggling to find t
Eleanor's P.O.V "Are you okay? You're shaking." Daniel spoke as I nodded my head frivolously, hoping he didn't see the past Eleanor disappearing.Well, maybe he'll figure if you act anymore suspicious. You know? My subconsciousness spoke as I gulped down at my own saliva.He won't. I won't let him. "Daniel?" I called out as I stared at Daniel placing down the coffee mug at the night table beside bed before turning to look at me."Yes, flower?" "Would you mind if we spent some quality time together?" I asked as I tucked a strand of hair behind my right ear, staring at him with eyes so innocent that even a child would shy away."Funny. I was thinking the same." A smile grew across Daniel's face as he sat on the edge of the bed gently taking my hand in his as if I were some delicate flower that would fall apart from a single touch. "I would love to spend some quality time with my lovely wife without having any interruption from anyone," he replied.Well, with how calm he is. There's n
Daniel's P.O.V Frozen.That's what I was in time and space as my eyes drank in the appearance of the woman in front of me.Not to mention that woman being my wife."Daniel?" Her sweet voice rang in my ears. As my mind took me back to everytime I was called Daniel from those kissable lips.Can I establish a new religion where my Goddess is worshipped?Maybe. My subconsciousness agreed with me, making me grin as I walked towards my wife, taking her hand in mine as I kissed the back of her hand."You look beautiful, flower." I complimented her as I looked up from her fair skin into her eyes. But, for some reason this time Eleanor looked frozen in time as she stared back at me with her lips slightly parted.Silence.It lingered between us as we stared at each other, taking in the presence of another. Where we thinking something while staring?I don't think so. My mind was completely empty. I just looking at my wife, trying to take in her presence as much as I could, hoping I would never
Eleanor's P.O.V I placed the fair lights in the box as I closed it. Finally done cleaning up. Phew!I wiped off the imaginary sweat off my forehead as my mind took me back to the kiss with Daniel. "I'm so sorry." Daniel apologized for the fifth time as he had to leave early from our date for some reason. "It's okay. We can always have a date another time. You should take care of your work first."I reassured him with a smile, trying to hide my disappointment. Deep down, I couldn't help but wonder if he really had some very important work or if he was just losing interest in me. But I didn't want to jump to conclusions. After all, we were finally behaving like a normal couple after so many misunderstandings.Yes. It was just my insecurities. Why would Daniel lie about having work? I'm just being paranoid. Yeah! That was it."Hey! What's the matter flower? You look lost." Daniel spoke in a soft tone as he stared directly into my eyes. "Nothing. What would be the matter? I'll just
Eleanor's P.O.V "Your Majesty! Please believe us. We are your loyal servants." Loyal, my foot. Just a moment ago, you didn't even greet me."How do I believe in your words?""Your Majesty, you mustn't. You must only believe in what you see." The head maid spoke as she stared at the floor.This just makes no sense! Daniel wouldn't leave me here to go and attend a ball with Keira. This just doesn't make sense. But, what she's saying is also right. I need to go. I need to see. I trust Daniel. But, I need to prove these people here wrong.There's no way that Daniel would leave our date to attend a ball with Keira. "Fine. Set it up." I spoke, walking into the kitchen as one of the maids went to the door and motioned for the knights to bring in the stuff they required to prepare me for the ball.Once, it was all set up. The head maid called for me, "Please, have a seat, Your Majesty."I reluctantly sat down on the chair, my mind still racing with doubts and suspicions. The head maid appro
Eleanor's P.O.V "What are you doing here, Duchess Keira? Weren't you just clinging onto my husband like your legs weren't functioning rather properly?" I shot at the person who just entered the room making my blood boil and vaporize like boiling water on a gas stove."Well, I saw you, Your Majesty. Couldn't just leave you unattended now. Could I?" Keira retorted, closing the door behind her as she entered the bathroom, leaning against the door so it wouldn't open wearing a sinister look on her face.If a human could really look like a bitch, no one would outdo this woman in front of me."Oh you certainly will outdo me, Your Majesty. Afterall, I'm just a Duchess. You are the Queen. Still, His Majesty left your date to accompany me. How does that make you feel?" Keira retorted as she shrugged her shoulders."You're calling me a bitch?" I asked, clenching my fits as I stared at her with a tear stained face and my teeth gritting against each other."No, Your Majesty. Not at all. They were
Eleanor's P.O.V Pine.The smell seemed to be swimming in my olfactory senses as my heavy eyelids refused to open.Why... Why am I fainting so often?I could feel a weight on my chest, constricting my breathing, and my mind was in a state where I felt like clouds of confusion were floating around.My hand slowly massaged my forehead as my eyes flickered open, making me view a rather familiar face, making me realize I wasn't exactly lying on the floor of a random hallway but on a bed beside Daniel. Daniel...His face was so close to me as his warm body was pressed against mine, his even breathing a comforting rhythm in the darkness.Why? Why is it me the one causing him trouble always? Would it be better if I just disappeared? Would his life go to normal without all the curses and black magic if I wasn't here? Would he be happier?A silent sob escaped my throat, and tears streamed down my face. I tried to stifle them, not wanting to disturb Daniel's peaceful slumber, but the pain in
