Eleazar’s Bride The ritual
Eleazar’s POVHera stepped into the circle of truth, her steps bold like she had done this before. I searched for her eyes, seeking to see what she had hidden within them.She has a way of hiding what she really felt but her eyes, those light brown orbs, had a way of betraying her.Even now, they dimmed with the fear she concealed and the sight of it made something in my chest constrict‘This is madness.’ I thought I turned away and kept my eyes on the witch, my eyes following her every action.‘But it is a madness Hera approves.’The witch handed Hera a dark green potion, the look of it promising its most likely bitter taste.Hera made to collect it when I stopped her.“You have to taste it first.”I said, my voice blank.She looked at me, protest she did not dare voice obvious in her eyes.She bowed before taking a large gulp out of the portion her face scrunching with distaste.I looked on until she had swallowed every last drop before I nodded at her to hand Hera’s to her.I wat
Eleazar’s Bride The Gamble
Hera’s POV I sat with my legs crossed, my eyes closed and my head rested against the cushion I was seated on, i was trying my best to look calm and unperturbed however I was a wreck inside.My ears perked at the slightest sound and the slightest movement made the hairs on my arms stand erect.What have I gotten myself into?Maybe I shouldn’t have allowed my anger speak for me.I clenched my toes painfully, that was the only thing I could do that was less noticeable and would help keep my nerves from getting the best of me.“Your majesty.” I heard the Queen dowager call and my eyes opened to find Eleazar walking into the room.He was wearing a light blue three piece Italian suit, a white coat hung on his shoulder, the fur on the neck making him look even classier.He stopped to speak to the queen dowager and I found myself unable to remove my eyes from him. The mask was still covering his face his voluminous black hair was now pulled back in a low ponytail and despite my situation, I
Eleazar’s Bride The end of an era
Hera’s POV “Making your subjects wait, should not be the first impression they have of you, Luna.” The queen dowager stated once I stepped into her quarters.Her quarters was magnificent, like no dollar had been spared in its decoration.Its lustre was almost blinding, gold dripping from every corner. The floor unlike Eleazar’s was adorned with gold and red marbles making me prefer to stick to my shoes rather than endure the cold they were likely going to provide“Good morning mother.” I greeted, a small smile on my face.We could forget the night before and start over or proceed on the same note but as far as I am concerned, I’ll give her that which is due to her.I stood a few inches from her and I bowed my head, my maids and her maids taking my lead to do the same. Her heels echoed as she approached me and when the sound stopped, I rose my head to meet her eyes.“You are welcome to Elisora.” She replied, her tone icy.“Thank you Mother.” I replied, my smile still on my face.Her
Eleazar’s Bride Queen of Elisora
Chapter 9 Hera’s POV I woke up at the first ray of sunlight that hit my face. My eyes opening slowly to observe my surrounding. I had wished fervently that the events of the day before be nothing but a dream but the soft bed below me, the heavenly feel of the duvet that enveloped me and the feeling of the dipping of the bed on the opposite side all it hinted at the reality. I took in my surroundings, the beauty of the room finally settling in. The room was still quite dark since the lights were all switched off but the rays of light that escaped the thick royal blue curtains brightened the room a bit and a particular stubborn one fell on Eleazar’s face, illuminating the right side of his face for my wandering eyes. I allowed myself take him in, his sleeping form less intimidating than when he was awake. How is he sleeping so peacefully with a stranger by his side? ‘The same way you did.’ An annoying voice whispered in my head.
Eleazar’s Bride The monster and I
Hera’s POV “I made a vow, didn’t I?” Eleazar’s deep chuckle reverberated in my ears, and probably due to the position we were in, the vibrations sent tingles down my feet.I shivered and tried to get away from his hold, for some reason, it felt like it was making me remain at a disadvantage.He let me go and I stifled a sigh of relief.There was no way I could get out of that hold if he hadn’t been willing.“Well aren’t you a woman of dignity.” He replied, the mockery in his voice stinging my heart.“Dignity and pride, I refuse to be the talk of the palace.” I replied turning to look him in the eye.The smile I had imagined was on his face when he had chuckled was no longer there but his eyes shone with amusement.“The rumors worry you?” He asked, his voice unreadable.“I am worried about myself, a Luna is only one if her subject recognize her.” I replied already getting exasperated. Why do I need to explain myself to get him to perform his duties?“And what about her Alpha?” I ra
Eleazar’s Bride Fear and something else
HERA’s POV I sat in a bath tub, soaked in water, rose, jasmine and a lot of other scents. The maids hovered over me each pretending to be busy with a task I knew didn’t exist.I heard the little gasp when I walked in, I saw the looks they exchanged when they thought I wasn’t looking, I also did not miss the slight widening of their eyes when I removed my gown and neither did the satisfied smile on the stylist’s face when she saw their expressions go without my notice.‘I seem to have found an ally’ I thought.I remained unperturbed as they cared for my body, they scrubbed carefully, each bowing and asking for permission before taking any step and like the stuck up royal I wanted them to see me as, I only hummed absentmindedly with my eyes closed.When they were done, I asked for some time in the bath tub even though my nose tickled from the scents and my body ached to finally leave the water.I smiled as they filed out knowing I was getting on their nerves.“You stay.” I said to the
