All Chapters of A delicate taste : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Illyria's POV      Darkness surrounded me as I ran through the woods, afraid. The river was taking me and the waterfalls dragged me down to the bottom part of it. Leaving the river, I saw two big red eyes looking straight at me.        “Kieran?” I asked. It was him, but it wasn’t at the same time.         “You are trespassing private lands. You need to be punished,” he seethed. There was so much hate in his voice. My body trembled and fear took over my soul.        He dumped me over his shoulder and took me away. My wet and ripped dress rubbing uncomfortably between both our bodies. This is not the Kieran tha

Illyria's POV       “You amaze me everytime,” I whispered to Kieran while looking at his sleeping body. I am sure he didn’t hear me despite his strong hearing, but I wanted him to know either way.       I got out of bed as careful as possible, getting dressed before I walked towards the pants I wore earlier. I took a little potion jar from the pocket and looked at it. It probably had enough dosage for both my parents.

Illyria's POVA week has gone by and I was still stuck in here. I didn’t have news about Kieran, but I was sure he was dying to know how I was doing. Today Lenora and Nicholas would show me the art of witchcraft, so I could master it.

It is nice to see you again,” Cassius said.  “I wish I could say the same, and I'm wondering, what brings you here?” I asked with a polite smile on my face. He knew I was faking it, but decided to ignore it.  “Well, I came to see what these people have to offer in exchange for an alliance. Their call seemed desperate for a peace treaty,” he replied, lifting the corner of his mouth in a smile, showing one of his fangs.  “Oh, that is a scary smile,” I said with the most sarcastic tone I could have. He just chuckled and turned around, when the sta

Illyria's POV “Is she okay?” I could hear Lenora talk. Her voice sounded far away. I was trying to force my eyes open, but it was not working. “I’m not sure, Mother. We were arguing and all of a sudden she fainted in my arms,” Kieran’s voice hit my ears, and my heart swelled.  “We should call Nicholas and Evanora,” Alaric said. Why can’t I just open my eyes? “No. They can’t know she is not well.
