CHAPTER THIRTY

BASTIAN’s POVIt’s been over two hours that i have been waiting for her but she hasn’t shown up. We both promised to go back to Drakeswoth together after I cajoled her into agreeing and now. Maybe she has changed her mind but she should have told me.Heaving a sigh, I stand up and make to leave but I see Caroline walking into the hall which makes me roll my eyes. I have been avoiding her ever since what happened at the forest and even though she has been trying to talk to me, I chose to ignore her.“I knew you would be here” she says but I walk past her, she grabs a hold of my hand pulling me back.“She isn’t coming” she tells me, “she left with the general in the early hours of the morning”My heart skips a beat, she left with him? What about our trip? The time we are supposed to spend together. I am sure he took her forcefully. That bastard is not to be trusted“We are also leaving now if you care to join us, even some of her group members are with us”“So why are you telling me thi

CHAPTER THIRTY TWO

ADELE’s POV.I don’t even know how I reached Drakeswoth after I left Cahir in the middle of that forest. The nerve of him to behave in such a way towards me. I am not even upset with him, I am upset with myself for letting myself fall for him like that. I can’t say I regret having sex with him because it was amazing, but it was stupid of me to start building castles in the air when I knew he wouldn’t commit.Finding myself at the gate of Drakesworth, I see Bastian and the others far off. Guilt built up in me, I told him we would go together and I left him. He must be feeling sad right now so I decided to get his best type of wine and visit him first. It’s not like Mother wants me back so I am better off spending time with my best friend.But as soon as I see him, I just want to hug him and forget what Cahir did to me.Being in his embrace makes me want to cry but I stop myself, I can’t let Cahir think I am weak.After a while, he slowly pulls away from me but his gaze is still lingeri

CHAPTER THIRTY THREE

CAHIR’s POV.Walking into the compound and seeing her seated on the stone bench, her eyes closed and a scroll in hand.. a part of me wants to pull her into my embrace but the other part that doesn't want anything to do with her wins and I let her open her eyes to see me.She is crying, why? Did she find out? Does she know the main reason? What’s going on in her head? I have a lot of questions as I continue to stare back at her then she asks me if I knew, if that was the main reason why I married her. Well, the mark on my arm says so. We have the same type of mark, the mark that binds us together for all of eternity. I was fire and she was water, together we complete each other.“Answer me, Cahir” her voice jolts me out of my thoughts again, “did you know this?”“When you have finally become a soldier, I will tell you why I married you for now you need to come with me”“I am not going anywhere with you” she says stubbornly, “so get the hell out of my face”“You do not have a choice, Ad

CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR

BASTIAN’s POV.It is already two hours after Adeline left my house so I decided to go see her again. It’s not like I was doing anything at home but as soon as I reach her house, I see her mother sitting on the stone bench outside, Adeline is nowhere to be seen.“Good evening aunt” I greet her.“Bastian” she calls out to me, “didn’t you leave with them?” She asks and a look of confusion appears on my face.“What do you mean, aunt?”“Adele has left for the barracks, this general came to take her away”Anger immediately built up inside of me, why the heck won’t Cahir take no for an answer. She clearly doesn’t want him and he still continues to chase after her. When it comes to her, I don’t mind killing him.“When did they leave?”“A few minutes after she got here”“Thanks aunt” I immediately rush out of the compound, my mind connecting to my coatyl almost immediately.“Come to me,” I tell her“Will you keep stressing me for that weak human?” She asks drowsily from her sleep?“That weak w

CHAPTER THIRTY FIVE

ADELINE’s POV.A light groan leaves my mouth and I slowly open my eyes. My eyes travel round the room as I pull my body to a sitting position. This is my room back at the fort. How did I get here? I can’t seem to remember what happened but I remember telling Cahir that I do not wish to stay in the fort anymore.My thoughts are interrupted when the door pushes open and Xena saunters in with a tray of food.“You have finally woken up”I don’t bother answering, I genuinely do not have the strength to exchange words with her.“Have your food” she says, drops the food on the table beside me, “Cahir said you should finish every single morsel”“I am not hungry” I tell her, pulling my body off the bed, “I think I need to leave now”She watches me pull out my boot from under the bed and get dressed before grabbing my scabbard.“Thank you”“Where are you going?”“The other cadets should be returning now, I will join them”“The general has not given you permission to leave”“I do not need his pe

CHAPTER THIRTY SIX

ADELE’s POV“What do you mean you are bad for me, Cahir?” I go ahead to ask him, “what exactly is so dangerous about me loving you and you loving me? You married me, you feel something for me”“I married you because you are useful to me” he sneers, his eyes lingering on my lips for a while, “and with everything I have going on in my head, I do not have the strength to fall in love”“But….” I touch his arm lightly, “it’s not my fault that I fell for you..you.He grips my shoulders violently and I wince in pain.“Don’t you hate me?” He asks, “you said you would hate me forever right? You should keep hating me, that’s the only thing that can keep you alive. Do not love me Adeline”Letting go of me, he walks out of the tent. Part of me wants to follow him but I stop myself. He has clearly told me he didn’t love me, I shouldn’t cling onto him again. He made it clear to me, I would only be stupid if I kept clinging onto him.Sniffing back a tear, I clean the tears glistening my eyes and clo

CHAPTER THIRTY SEVEN

CAHIR’s POV.She hasn’t looked at me since the day i rejected her, she has immersed herself in training sessions, not bothering to even spare me a glance.I watch her like a hawk when she hangs out with her friends and even more when she hangs out with Bastain. She laughs with him when he says something amusing which irritates me. She doesn’t know him like I do yet she acts like he is the best thing that has happened to her.The other day, they were both in the same sparring group and I watched him allow her to win. Is that the way he wants to help her? By not letting her reach her full potential? I think he doesn’t know what lies ahead of her and he thinks he would be able to protect her every fucking day.Now they are having a lecture and from where I am seated, I can see the two of them chit chatting during classes. I clench my jaw together, maybe I need to go harder on her than I already am.“General” xerxes’s voice reaches my ear and I raise my head to see him standing beside me.

CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT

ADELE’s POV.We haven’t spoken in days and the first thing he asks me when he sees me Is why I am chit chatting in class and before I can even say anything, another lady comes calling him in the sweetest voice I have ever heard. Before I left, I saw her and I can’t lie, she is pretty and she looks like someone worthy of standing beside him. I guess this is why he rejected me, she could be the person xena told me about but a little part of me still hurts. I mean, he married me for reasons best known to him then he discards me and brings his lover to make me upset.I can’t lie I was jealous and upset throughout until he showed up at the dining room. Part of me wants to walk to him and throw my hands around his neck and kiss him but his lover could be somewhere behind him. Our gaze met for a moment but he didn't linger, I guess this is what we are now.But best believe I was happy when he asked Caroline to be thrown into the dungeon. She has been on my case for a while now and my joy kno

CHAPTER THIRTY NINE

ADELE’s POV.“If you are his woman, why are you telling me?” I force myself to ask her, “you do not know me and I do not know you, you shouldn’t be bothered”“Of course” her eyes travel around me before settling on my face again, “but tell me, what are you doing here?”“I had something to discuss with the general so I came to find him”“He isn’t here, he is at the tent”“Okay, thank you”After that, I try to leave but she halts me.“You haven’t even told me your name”“It doesn’t matter, priestess”Not waiting for her response, I hasten away. What the heck was I thinking even coming here? He clearly doesn’t want me and I keep clinging onto him. Why would he chose me when he has someone like her?I haven’t gone far when I see him and Xena coming towards the fort. As soon as he sees me, he stops walking but I walk past him, not on my life. He has seen me vulnerable once, I won’t let him see that again.“Cadet!” His voice halts me, “what are you doing here?”“I came to look for Bastian”

CHAPTER FORTY

CAHIR’s POV.The moment I entered the room, I felt her presence and I knew she was here somewhere. What I didn’t know was why she came here. She made it clear to me that she doesn’t want anything to do with me again but here she is in my room and hiding behind my curtains.She heard everything about me, everything about my love and my life. I can’t lie, I was upset but it’s not like she wouldn’t find out sooner or later.Even as I told her to leave my room, she keeps standing watching me pull my shirt. I can only get into her head for a moment, how I wish I can know what’s going on in her head. These days, she has become so close to Bastian and I am sure he knows a lot more about her than me.“Aren’t you going to leave?” I ask, not bothering to look at her.“Did that hurt?” Her voice reaches me and I frown upon hearing that, what does she mean?I turn my head and I see her standing a few feet from me, her face has a puzzled look on there.“Your tattoo, did it….She comes close to me,
