Eleazar’s POV

Hera 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 actio

  • Eleazar’s Bride   The Luna’s Alpha

    Hera’s POV “You should sleep in.” I heard Eleazar say.He had just walked out of the bathroom and was drying his hair with a towel in front of the mirror. A white shirt clung to his broad back outlining just how muscular he was beneath. His muscles flexed with each movement making me stare. Realizing what I was doing, I turned away clearing my throat, heat spreading through my chest.That ritual must have messed with my head.“I am fine now.” I said as I made to stand from the bed.He turned to me, his blue silk mask on his face.“Don’t be stubborn.” He said and I only rolled my eyes before standing up.“One time vulnerability doesn’t make me a damsel in distress, Alpha.”He stood for a moment, his eyes roaming my body as if trying to assess if I really was as fit as I claimed.I put my hand on my waist, in a bid to prove my point. I have a debt to collect from the Queen dowager, I couldn’t do that if I laid here all day.He shook his head before he turned away.“We leave together

  • Eleazar’s Bride   His strange presence

    Hera’s POV I stirred, a moan leaving my mouth due to the amount of pain the movement inflicted on me.I could hear a faint voice perhaps from a distance and I yearned to lean closer to hear what it was saying.I tried to move my body, to scoot closer to the voice but my body felt heavier than ever like I was being pinned to the bed. A helpless whimper left my mouth as I pushed again and like my efforts gad finally borne fruits, the voice sounded closer.It was a deep voice, velvety, something like a low rumble and a whisper combined in one. I could now make out what it was saying. It called my name, again and again, the desperation in it more obvious with each call. I tried to force my eye open but they felt too heavy, I made to move my hands, to feel for the voice but all the strength I could muster did not even raise a finger.What is wrong with me?Why can’t I move?What happened?Bile was beginning to rise in my throat and my hands were growing sweaty as panic began to set in.

  • 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.
