Chapter 18: Reatainer I opened my eyes when I heard a movement and it turns out that it was Shiloh trying to stand up, he looks so pale and it is making me worry. Should I hunt some animals that could return his strength, I mean its blood? I help him to sit down properly before picking up the bag he uses as a pillow. I took one of the bottles of water inside the bag and I opened it. I put it in Shilohs mouth for him to drink since his lips are getting dried. I don't know if his thirst will disappear but I hope this water can help him even just a little. I hold Shiloh’s forehead using the back of my mind to feel his temperature but he just holds my hands to stop me. That's why I raise one of my eye brows. “I am not that weak, Calliope”. He said as he smirked at me, he is still annoying even if he is in a situation like this. I looked behind me when I saw a movement in my peripheral vision. It was Ahira and she was looking into my hand while still holding Shilohs forehead while he w
Chapter 19: ShearlingI was shocked when I saw Ahira kneel in front of us.“Accept me as your retainer, my Lord!”, she shouted at the top of her lungs. I smiled when I heard what he said. I will be happy if Shiloh accepts her. I jump to the horse we are riding and now Shiloh is the only one who's riding it, a prince riding on a horse to be precise. He looks like a royal prince in which every girl would die for. Well, he is really one.Shiloh scratched the back of her arm looking so irritated. “I don't need one. And don't you know how dangerous it is to follow us?”he asked but I pinched him in his legs for him to look at me angrily. I am motivating him to accept Ahira. What if they are meant to be with each other? Thinking about that made me smile like an idiot.“Bu–But you're the reason why I am still alive and sane at the same time. I would die for you, my Lord”, Ahira said while looking at Shilohs head. I saw Shiloh look away, who is being shy now?“Fine! Be my retainer but kid yo
Chapter 20: ProphecyThe day passed, the same as the night, the predawn light was just beginning to show through. We were walking as we decided to leave the horse in the hotel we stayed all night as we were going to board a ship. At the moment we are on our way to the harbor to go to the last City which is the City of Samaria, near Samaria is the Mountain of Chaldea where we can find father Immer, the seer.The staff outside the ship help us with our belongings before we get inside. This is my first time riding a ship that is why I am so excited and nervous at the same time.Shiloh inform us that boarding in a ship is the only way to go the City of Samaria. I look at Ahira and she looks like a goddess as her long hair flies in the air. She is still wearing the dress I gave to her and the shoes Shiloh bought for her. It was very windy, that's why I arranged my hair in a low bun hairstyle. I heard a horn and I think it was the cue to start the voyage. Almost two hours have passed as I
Chapter 21: IMYI groaned when I got the chance to lie on my bed. How I missed this soft bed of mine. I already changed my clothes into a comfortable one. A while ago, Shiloh and Ahirah were here to borrow some clothes since it is already late at night no maiden was out since it is already past their curfew. I missed Miss Penelope.I also gave Ahira slippers but it seems like she didn't want to take off the boots given by Shiloh but still she accepted it. I asked them where Ahira will sleep since she can sleep with me if there was none but Shiloh said that there is still a free room for her.It has been almost a week since I left the mansion and tomorrow I am going to visit the training field. I miss the knights as well as Elon.I remember why I chose to leave the Cravens manor, the main reason is for me to forget my feelings toward Aziel. I don't know if ever I'd forget about that but I will think that when I saw himI fell asleep forgetting about the prophecy and it was almost eight
Chapter 22: Wicked“Miss Penelope!!!”I called her name excitedly as I ran toward her, she smiled at me and later on laughed at my actions.“I miss you, Miss Penelope!”, I said as I face her holding both of of her shoulders“I miss you too, Calliope”, she said while putting the tray of food on my table. It is the time where she always brings me food, that is why I am happily waiting for her. It is already lunchtime, that's why she's here.“How are you? It's been a week, Calliope and you didn't even bid a goodbye”, she said, holding my face.I scratched the back of my head when I heard her say that.“I know you have your reason but next time tell me huh?” She said that's why I nodded, she put my hair covering my face at the back of my ears.“By the way, Sir Shiloh said that you need to go to his room after you eat your lunch”, she said and I just nodded.She hugged me one last time before she came out to my room. I wonder why Shiloh needed me, is there something important he is going to
Chapter 23: UnfairAziel’s Point of View Don't believe her Aziel.Of course I won't, besides I know exactly who Vashti Redezdale is. I smiled when I heard her say something to herself. I can buy myself flowers.“Why are you smiling at me like that?”, I looked at Vashti and frowned when she said those words. She is smiling like an idiot smelling the flowers that weren't for her.I pulled back the bouquet of roses in her hands and said, “This isn't for you, it was for Shiloh”, I said before turning my back on her. She must be delusional.I heard her stump her feet and called my name but I didn't bother myself to look back. I decided to go directly in Shilohs room since he requested this when he found out that I will go to the City.I don't even know why Vashti is here inside the manor, I mean yeah she and her family are welcome here since my parents are friends with them but it was a long time ago. I already forgot their faces.She always roams around everywhere saying that she is my
Chapter 24: Good GirlI kicked Shilos' feet when Aziel left the room. He just laughed at me and after that he sat on the arm chair.“Why don't you tell him, Calliope?”, he asked “What?”, I asked as an answer even though I already knew what he was pointing out.“Your feelings for him”, he said again leaning at the back of his chair and putting his feet on the mini table.“It doesn't matter”, I said as I looked him in the eyes, “This is wrong Shiloh and he doesn't need to know about this”, I said while holding the flowers I thought was for Vashti at first.“Okay, it's your choice Calliope, just make sure that you won't regret it”, he said and I just nodded slowly. I don't know but living my whole life, I regret everything. I hope I chose the right thing.I look at Ahira when I notice that there is something wrong, she looks uneasy. And it seems like she doesn't know what to do.“Are you okay?”, I asked her and she just looked at me and dude she looks so sick!“Are you sick? Did somethi
Chapter 25: HorizonShiloh's Point of ViewI am cutting the leaves when someone knocks on the door. I know that presence very well and that is why I didn't bother to open the door.“Shiloh”, she called my name that's why I looked at her, asking using my eyes what she wanted from me.“Where can I request something from the council?”She asked, which made me wonder why.“Why?”I asked her because it was the council we were talking about.“I want to ask their permission for me to get out of here, the Cravens manor”, she explained but that was not enough for me to understand.“I will go to the forest. I need to talk to Gideon ''she added. That made me disagree. It is not safe for her.“No, it is dangerous Calliope especially that you are the Alpha's mate. I know that you already knew this but everyone is longing for your scent and besides even if you are mated to their leader some werewolves didn't accept you as their Luna as you did not recognize their Alpha. They can harm you, Calliope”,
