VIOLETTE.“It’s the perfect place to make you moan my name, my dear.”My heart stilled. What was wrong with Noah? This wasn’t his room but a public space. Anyone could walk in and see us being this close to each other.“What do you want?”Instead of giving me an answer, Noah smirked. He gave me the book back while his eyes stared at me like I was delicious food. Then his finger made a circular motion on my waist.“Noah, I’m here to read, not to do what you have in mind.”“And what do I have in mind, my dear?” He teased. The intensity of his gaze made my cheeks heat. “What? Cat got your tongue?”Pushing him, I turned my head to the left. Looking at the boring brown shelf with books covered by thick dust. I thought what I did was enough to let him know that I wasn’t in the mood to indulge him. Yet, Noah proved me wrong.He li
VIOLETTE.In nineteen years of my life, I had never felt this embarrassed and frightened at the same time. Noah and I had already stood side by side with our proper clothes, although they were wrinkled. While the destroyer, Hudson, stared at us with cheeks flushed.Considering how old Hudson looked, still surprised me that he got shy after witnessing our inappropriate behavior in his library.“Honored Lord, please forgive me for interrupting your hmmm….adventurous activity,” Hudson said with eyes rooted on his old boots.“Why are you here? I remember giving you a gold coin and telling you to leave us. Is that not enough for you?” Noah asked, clearly still pissed that we didn’t get our release.Hudson lifted both hands, shaking them before his face. “I don’t dare to ask for more, Honored Lord. The money is too much for me not to offer service. So, hmmm….I thought it was better to
OLIVIA.I never talked with Nash after the incident in the garden. I wasn’t strong enough to face him. I feared I’d cowered like usual if I tried talking with him. Despite getting hurt over and over again, my heart never learned its lesson, and I still hoped for him when he gave me a little affection.My love for him was too big, or perhaps I was just a fool dreaming of magical love in a world filled with bitterness. Facing my pathetic reflection, I laughed, and tears slipped from my eyes. Sometimes I wondered when I would get stronger and could stand for myself.I could always reject Nash, but thinking about the painful aftermath made me scared beyond words. Many of us had died after the pain of losing our mate, and I wasn’t ready to become one of them.Sighing, I averted my gaze, smoothened my skirt, and placed a flower ornament on my hair.Knock, Knock~“Come in.”“Luna Olivia,” the young maid gathered her skirt before curtsied. “The former Luna is asking for you.”My heart went co
OLIVIA.After leaving Godivia’s quarter, I spent my time alone in my room. Facing the vast view of the soil covered with snow helped me calm. My heart still beat painfully, but it became bearable.Godivia’s words rang in my ears. I didn’t care about the part she said she could take my position. I was saddened because Nash had broken my trust again. I wanted to ignore’s Godivia’s last warning, but I couldn’t.I wasn’t ready to let him have a pup from another she-wolf. Walking toward my closet, I took my thin chemise that covered almost nothing, put it on my body then painted my face to make it fresh.When I was done, the sun had already rested. The moon was so high in the sky that the light escaped from my window and fell on me. Under the moonlight with only a layer of clothes, I felt pretty, yet cheap at the same time.“This is your last attempt, Oliv. Let’s give up if everything turns against you,” I told myself.After making up my mind, I grabbed my cloak, wrapped it around my body,
VIOLETTE. Something was definitely wrong with Noah. It happened right after we went back after meeting Blaze. Noah seemed absentminded while he was with me. He tried to avert his gaze from meeting mine when he was with me. His touch became a rare occurrence; even his presence became harder to see. We were fine. I was sure of it. We didn’t fight, but now it was like we had one. “Is he tired of me?” Shaking my head, I threw the thought off my head. Rather than guessing and kept coming up with unpleasant scenarios, it was better to confront him directly for my peace of mind. I stood before the mirror, braiding my hair and rolling it neatly. I observed my skin, looking for the sign of ugly green on my pale skin, then sighed when I found none. Turning my head to the window, I noticed how high the sun was. Good, Noah was probably still in the training ground. I had to catch him there. If not, I had to wait until the sun rested again. I gathered enough fabric of my gown on my hand, pul
VIOLETTE. Noah and I sat across each other. Noah was still as tense as before. His jaw hardened, and he kept clenching his fists. I, on the other hand, felt numb. I didn’t know what to feel about his words. “So?” I began. “I’m still not sure about it, Violette. That’s why I’m avoiding you. Seeing you keep making me want to tell you everything, but I’m afraid I’d get your hope up.” Ignoring his words, I asked, “Where have you seen her before?” Noah lowered his hands and hid them under the table while his gaze averting mine. His leg kept moving anxiously as I waited. I was nervous myself. Despite telling my heart not to soar high because of the possibility of Noah knowing my mother, I couldn’t help but hope. “As I said, I’m not sure. When I saw the picture, I only thought she looked awfully familiar to one of my supporters before my father’s death.” “Supporter?” “Yes. She is a very important figure in my life. A wise and powerful woman. I admire her, to be honest. Seeing your mot
VIOLETTE.“Tell me about yourself.” Noah suddenly said as we lay down on the bed.Without looking at him, I replied, “Suddenly?”“We never really talk about ourselves, Vio. I want to know more about you. About your past and the people around you. Is that wrong?”“There is nothing interesting in my life, though.”Noah reached for my arm and pulled me toward him. One of his arms sneaked to my waist, while the other was placed under my head.“That’s for you. But for me, everything about you is interesting. So?”I stared at the beautiful man before me, thinking about how we could get entangled with each other. It still amazed me that a mare witch like me could be mated to him. And to think that he seemed to want me desperately baffled me.As we stayed silent, I recalled my past. There was nothing interesting, really. There were many beautiful memories before my mother’s disappearance, but it had become blurry over time. I was too focused on looking for her that I failed to enjoy my life to
HERTA.Dream walking. That’s what I was doing. Attacking Noah while he was awake would put me at a disadvantage solution. It was a different case if he was sleeping and completely unaware that he would be in great danger.Although the chance of success spiked up, I also put myself in a vulnerable situation because while I trans-passed to Noah’s dream, my body was lying with only a protection spell around me. Anyone else could have attacked my physical body, and I’d be late to defend myself.Dream walking was an ability I got after I drank my master’s blood. Before, I only knew a little about it and tried to learn it by myself, but I never managed to do that because my power wasn’t enough. Sacrificing my master was a great solution at that time. I became more powerful to the point I could perform many forbidden spells.I stood still in the empty space, waiting for the haze to clear up before taking another step. If I wasn’t careful, I could be trapped here forever.A strong wind blew pa
