All Chapters of Luna's Revenge: Willow Baker's Marriage Request: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Willow Baker POV'Well that didn't go too badly.''Easy for you to say. You didn't do any talking.'We had spent the better part of the morning talking about anything and everything. Nothing was sacred. She even pressed me for specifics about my pregnancy, making me feel as if she was trying to figure out what was wrong with me.'At least that's out of the way right?'Sighing, I took a good look at my surroundings and took in the sight of the lavish rugs I was stepping on with my grimy shoes to the tasteful decorations that screamed wealth. After the interrogation, the Grand Duchess had said we were allowed to explore the place when she returned Asa to me. Then she left to personally do whatever the Grand Duchesses did.From the corner of my eyes, I peered at the two servants trailing behind me. They had been assigned to watch after us and aid us in whatever we

Willow Baker POVMaverick remained silent, as if contemplating his words. I couldn't help feeling uneasy about what he wanted to say.Was it something truly horrible that he had trouble finding the words, and why couldn't I remember it?"Do you remember the first time we met?" he settled on.I blinked before saying, "Yes?"Why was he bringing it up now?I had thought he wanted to talk about the reason why he had apologized to me.He grimaced as he slowly said, "I was under the impression you willingly offered yourself to me that night."Then it clicked as I made a small noise. So that was why he was apologizing to me. It never occurred to me that would be what he had been talking about, but considering how few interactions we had with one another, I shouldn't have been surprised.With him apologizing, I couldn't help wondering why. He sounded so... I wasn

Willow Baker POVI rocked Asa back and forth as I hummed, but despite my best efforts, she didn't seem interested in quieting down. In fact, it looked like she was getting annoyed with me instead.After the awkward meeting with Maverick, Asa, for some reason, appeared to be unhappy with me. I tried everything I could think of to make her happy, but nothing was working. Not even my meager experience from the other life was enough to solve the problem in front of me.I sighed, wishing Sheila was here. She would know what to do. I should have asked Maverick about seeing her, but his conversation had distracted me enough to keep me from asking him about her and Rickey.It shouldn't have taken him long to reach the border and wonder where we went after seeing we weren't there. I wouldn't be surprised if he caught sight of us teleporting away.Hopefully, I will hear news about him soon. The alternative w

Willow Baker POVAfter adverting disaster with Sheila and Rickey, though they didn't seem too pleased with me, we had a somewhat pleasant evening. There wasn't much to talk about or anything to do really. The people here hadn't exactly provided us with anything to entertain ourselves with.It was still nice to bask in the presence of people I knew before they were forced back to their rooms by the knights and servants posted outside the door.I hadn't even known they were there, though it should have been obvious from the beginning that Sheila and Rickey couldn't be allowed to walk around unsupervised, especially after what Rickey did.The next few days followed the same repetitive schedule of waking up, caring for Asa, having breakfast, caring for Asa, maybe exploring, caring for Asa, having lunch, caring for Asa, staying in my room, caring for Asa, having dinner, caring for Asa, and going to bed.

Willow Baker POVUnder the intense stares, I took the only seat available, which was next to Maverick, and remained silent, waiting for one of them to talk first. Asa, on the other hand, had no problem babbling away as she reached out for Maverick. Hesitantly, I held her close, despite how she babbled unhappily at being denied.While I knew this was the first time in a long time since she'd seen her father, the current situation wasn't one where I could happily hand her over to her father. At least not with how intensely everyone was looking at me.'Awkward much. Why isn't anyone saying anything?'"I have no clue, but it would be nice if someone would start talking and get this over with.'No one said a word as our meal was brought to us. Everything looked delicious, but my stomach rebelled at the thought.How was I supposed to eat in such a stressful situation?
