Raenerys couldn't help but feel something inexplicable after remembering things about where and how she and Acheron had met, how he had aided her to grow stronger, changed her into the girl she just wanted to be but almost believed she could never be, and what had been the work and events of a year together.A year ago, everything was different. And now that she looks back, she realizes that a year can do a lot for someone.She could also clearly remember being told to be careful of Acheron, but one thing she didn't have a chance to know in the past was the reason why Acheron hated his own family. Could it be that both of them are really the same? But whatever it is, she'll know it soon. All she needs to do now is push Acheron away from her to stop his feelings because she cannot really accept that. She couldn't help but wish for them to revert to the way they were before they first met. How Acheron used to treat her was so that it would be easier, so that she wouldn't have to struggl
Raenerys didn't know how to act when Nevil was around. Her rage was trying to escape her control and that shouldn't happen. She might kill the man in no time, but that was not in her plan.The next day, Nevil called for her to talk. At first, it seemed like he didn't want to face the man but he had no choice. He headed to his library and found Nevil busy writing a book. When he felt her presence, he put down his book to look at her with his tender eyes."Are you okay?" he did not understand why the man had cared about him. But he did not reveal that he was irritated by his concern."I'm fine, I-I'm sorry earlier. I'm just tired because I just got back from the fight and I'm going straight here." It nodded as if it knew about that."I heard about Sera, she told me everything. And since then, the North has become quiet again, the rogues have disappeared. And I know it's your doing that the North is at peace again. I never imagined you'd help us this much. The council wants to thank you
Sera's hands were trembling as she met Acheron again. This time, it wasn't in the same spot. They met just near Nevil's house. She didn't expect to see Acheron hanging around Nevil's house. It was very brave of him to wander there for reasons unknown to her."What are you doing here, Acheron? If you want me to tell you an update, well, I'm sorry! Nevil doesn't have any plans now. Raenerys already settled about the rogues; they're not coming back. I don't know what happened. But because of that, Nevil has no plans for now but his marriage with Raenerys." If earlier there was no emotion or reaction on Acheron's face, now she saw how the man's brow furrowed."When is the wedding?" This is a serious question again."I didn't know; Nevil doesn't say anything, but knowing him, he wants to do things immediately." She said, which means she knows it's true."Then, why don't you leave?" was also Nevil's question to her."He's getting married; you'll have no more room or use in his house." Sera
Sera was unable to answer Raenerys' questions. That's why she left her not knowing what to say. Sera was probably shocked after knowing that Raenerys knew that much. Another thing is that she is probably still shocked from what Acheron found out which she confirmed by telling her the exact story Acheron said."Raenerys," as soon as she entered Nevil's house, she immediately opened her eyes to him. It looks like the man is going somewhere."Yes? Need anything?" he roamed his eyes on her face before continuously walking."I'll meet some council members. Are you okay to be here? Aren't you bored? Or do you want to come with me?" the change in Nevil's treatment of her since her return was really noticeable. But she didn't pay attention to that and thought more about what he said."Alright, I'll come with you.""Well then, after you." he gestures the way, that's why she walked there first. They met Sera who was surprised because they seemed to be leaving."Are you leaving? Can I come with
Raenerys approached Nevil as if nothing had happened and he could hardly breathe as she grabbed his waist to stand him up. The two of them couldn't help but stare at each other."Did I hurt you?" she immediately recovered and quickly shook her head."No, I'm fine, we have to leave now.""Are you guys done? Is Nevil okay?" She turned around when Sera peeked so she immediately got into the driver's seat to drive. Nevil immediately rode next to her sister's side and even though she could feel Nevil's eyes on her, she started driving, faster compared to Nevil's driving earlier.“Why the hell are these insurgents attacking North?” she heard Nevil's voice asking that. None of them knows the answer. She's not a very good friend of insurgent vampires so she has no attachment to them and she does not know the plans and actions of the insurgents.She was deep in thought until they arrived in front of the house of one of the council members. In front of them is this very high gate painted black.
"What do you want, Acheron? And why the hell are you doing this? Didn't we already talk? Are you really not going to stop taking action the way you want without informing me?" Raenerys couldn't help but be annoyed."That's why I excused you for a talk," he said calmly as if he had done nothing wrong, and that enraged her more."Yeah, you fucking excused me. What will those people think? They will wonder why you want to talk to me, or worse, they might suspect that we know each other. Did you even think about that?" she frustratedly combed her hair, trying to control herself not to choke Acheron to death right at that moment."Why are you so nervous? Relax, Raenerys. I am not stupid. I know what I am doing, and there are so many reasons why I wanted to talk to you. Actually, that part is not a lie; there is a reason that's really why I want to talk to you." She gritted her teeth and looked at him."And what the hell is that?" she asked emphatically. Acheron remained calm as he shifted
"You're summoning me? Raenerys said you want to talk to me?" That was Sera's opening when she got close to Acheron. Acheron's expression remained plain as he looked away from her and looked at the town."Yes," Acheron answered this sparingly.Sera didn't expect Acheron to talk to her. She was surprised when Raenerys returned and said that the man wanted to talk to her. If you think about it, it's also really surprising that Acheron excused Raen a while ago; they were all left there, including Nevil, wondering why Acheron wanted to talk to Raenerys. The council members even asked if the two knew each other. But when Raenerys returned, she explained that Acheron wanted her permission about something before she turned to look at Sera and told her that Acheron wanted to talk to her."Why, what do you need?" Sera was obviously nervous. She's always like this around Acheron."I told Raenerys. . . I mean I asked her permission." Sera's brow furrowed out of confusion. What is he talking about
Confusion filled Nevil's mind. He was secretly being hunted by what happened in the past, as he saw Acheron standing next to him now. He's so shocked when the council's head announces his return. And when he saw him after so many years that Acheron was gone—that he was thinking he really did die—he couldn't help but feel shocked and confused.Now that they were talking, he couldn't help but wonder what his purpose was in the North. Why did it come back after what happened before? He also feels a little threatened, and Acheron can feel that."You want what? Date Sera Lauregnory?" Nevil confirmed what his brother said, and Acheron looked at him."Yeah, is that bad? I've been here for a couple of days and I saw her. I was captivated by her beauty, and c'mon, Nevil. I am into older sisters. I think we're a perfect match." Nevil doesn't like the words coming out from Acheron, even though he knows there is nothing wrong with what he said."You can choose anyone from noble families here in t
