Chapter 33.

DARIUS' POV.

THE MASTER'S DOG.

A smirk slowly tugged at the edge of my lips, and as creepy as it may look, I felt so happy once I heard the news from a guard.

“We found one.”

An ordinary man would want to inquire what one was. But I got the message already. A spy? A tip? Just something relevant to the matter on hand and that is why I didn't ask just anyone to report to Selene's quarters but Kai. Capable and trustworthy. At least for now, cause whoever trusts one loses.

Immediately the news reached me, I clapped, very loud that its sound echoed through my chambers. Then I turned to the guard, voice rigid and strict, my arms spread over my throne with a kind of confidence that matched the energy plastered over my face.

“Get the court lady and palace attendant to summon all members of the council. We met at the investigation bureau. I would be present in case anything might go south.”

“Right away, your majesty!” The guard responded with urgency and once I nodded, he scu

  • CURSED BLOOD TO ASHES   A BRIDE?

    Chapter 35. A BRIDE?KAEL'S POV. The morning ray penetrated my eyes, making me curse out loud and fly my legs in the air like a frustrated child until a sharp pain hit me hard from the waist before I sat still. Shit. I cursed again. It is really frustrating these days that I always wake up with body pains not because I have started going from countless meetings to another since the villagers want me to rule them or because I still go hunting every morning and farm for most hours on the field but because I lack sleep. Not even the shortest. Every night, my eyelids fluttered open and I stared at the white ceilings with bulbs and lights on them but once I stared too much, they started to blur just because I was out of the space. Enough of thinking about her! I exhaled. It was never easy. Not at all. If I wasn't thinking of her, I was seeing her in my sleep. Unconsciously. But it wasn't my fault. She triggered it. She made me yell at her. But that was less my intention so I was

    Chapter 34. HURTING DOESN'T HELP. MIRA'S POV. I seated close to the windows and stared blankly into the sky when Kael's words suddenly replayed in my head, “Mira, since my concern now feels like a cage, I'm letting you go. You don't need to beat yourself up.”Cold, too sudden. And the way he had stared back at me then, like he was not the one who was worried earlier. Now, his lips did not even twitch. He was back to the person I knew. Rigid, jaw always clenched and shoulders broadened while he worked. Since then, I've been beating myself up. I realized I've been too selfish. For someone who took me in even when he didn't know me from Adams and didn't think twice before saving me, I have been nothing more than an ingrate. But no one should blame me. Not even you that knows my ordeal, I definitely can not trust anyone. Kael has friends or enemies everywhere and none sounded better. The thought of letting him know who I was always scared me to hell. As built as Kael was, from the

  • CURSED BLOOD TO ASHES   FED FROM HER CRUMBS

    CHAPTER 32. KAI'S POV.FED FROM HER CRUMBS. Selene. Her name pressed onto my mind as I ran so fast that I felt the heels of my feet touch the back of my thighs while I panted so rough. Selene. Her name was all that lingered in my head since the guard spoke and now that I found myself running, even as the cold hit me twice as harsh as they normally would, I cared less until I halted just right in front of her quarters. “You're here.” A feminine voice sliced through the air as I peeped into her chambers. I held my breath for a second and tilted my head gently towards the voice. It was Lila. “Yes.” I responded too quickly. “A guard was asked to stay put at her highness’ quarter but was found dead minutes ago. So..”Normally, I would wait for her to announce but as soon as the guard's voice replayed in my head, I found myself taking off my shoes, jerking the door open and bursting into her chambers panting heavily. “Your highness, I'm sorry. He didn't even let me announce his pres

  • CURSED BLOOD TO ASHES   BEFORE ANYTHING HAPPENS

    Chapter 31. BEFORE ANYTHING HAPPENSKAI'S POV. “Where the fuck have you been?” A deep voice roared in the room and that was when I jolted out of reverie. I had walked from Selene's chamber to the palace and walked through the hallway of the king's chamber oblivious of whatever was going on as I marched towards the king's chamber. I had run my hands through my hair constantly, even as I walked. I just didn't get it. She wanted it. I did too. She even dared the king to know. “Then let it kill us.” Her voice replayed in my head causing me to curse underneath my breath. I formed a fist with my hand, my teeth gritted, brows arched in frustration as her words replayed in my head. “About last night, don't get any funny ideas. It was a mistake. We cannot undo it, so forget it.” I bit my lips painfully as it occurred to me that it was just all a lie. What did I even expect? That a king's mate would fall in love with a guard? ‘but she made out with us.’ my wolf barked. And as much

  • CURSED BLOOD TO ASHES   A MISTAKE

    Chapter 30. A MISTAKE. KAI'S POV. A smile lazied at the edge of my lips as I recalled a night ago while the morning rays reflected into my eyes and I didn't move. “Then let it kill us.” A breath of relief escaped me as Selene's words replayed in my head and so I turned to face her on the bed where we had made out and now, we laid on. I tucked a strand of hair that fell over her pretty eyes as I stared into her face, not intending to look away anytime soon as I moved closer to her and caressed her arms gently. I bit my lips at the thought that crossed me once more, I was not sure I could manage still laying down with her. My legs suddenly grew numb, yet heavy at the same time and when she groaned slightly in her sleep, hell — she was undoing me. It took a whole lot of convincing not to wrap my arms around her and swoop her in to close the gap between us but I preferred to just let her lay there and sleep soundly. I glanced over at the wall clock, it was just around eight this mor
