~Ioana~

"My Queen—" it was Vivian, but the familiar voice offered me no comfort at this time.

My mind was wrapped and twisted.

"Are you here to mock me too?" I found those words coming out from my lips.

"Madame, how can—"

I wasn't thinking right. I knew.

"Has there been any day you've seen me as your queen?"

Something was wrong with me.

I knew that too.

"Of course, ma—"

"If you had the chance to choose between Lady Althea and I, who would you serve?"

Like pelting rain to the Gia, I never gave her the chance to finish her words, as if searching for something.

What it was, I wasn't aware of it. Yet.

Then came the pause.

Short. Fleeting.

So small I usually wouldn't notice.

But today wasn't another day.

My already sensitive mind narrowed in on it.

"I see," my lips curled into a grin.

Patter.

A tear fell to the floor.

"Even you?… too… right?" my words came out broken. Pieces that only I could understand. Knife stabbed my heart. I grunted, clenching my chest.

'I must be going crazy.'

  • His Captive, His Mate, His Queen    Chapter 69: He Saved Me… Again

    ~Ioana~I couldn't breathe. The knives hidden beneath their smiles, the daggers in their eyes. My lungs tightened. Drawing in air was difficult. My face grew paler by the second."So this is why?" I muttered under my breath. It wasn't an ordinary ball—woven through in splendid gowns and clothes were nobles.So this was why they brought me here. I could finally understand their purpose.It was only when I received the first words brimming with concern but hidden with disdain and malicious intent did I realize—Oh, was I naive.How could they bring me to any gathering that’s for me?She had walked up to me, light brown hair styled, pendants dangling, shimmering with each tiny step she took. Her movements fluid. She walked before me and bowed, "Your Majesty," she greeted."You can ge—" I choked, swallowing back my words as it wasn't necessary. She straightened up, her eyes blinking like she never did anything wrong.Something about her ticked me off immediately—a foresense, perhaps.Beca

  • His Captive, His Mate, His Queen    Chapter 68: Late Night Ball

    ~Ioana~ "A late night ball will be held, Your Majesty. We await your presence." That was what I woke up to hear. Like a bolt of lightning from a clear sky, my mood fell into a trench. The messenger, probably seeing my expression—or probably didn’t care—gave a bow and walked right out of my room. "Wait—" I called out, but those short legs were faster than a bird taking flight in panic. She turned the corner and disappeared from view, leaving my thoughts to ring out in my head, ‘I can't dance.’ Weren’t balls for dancing? My head ached. I plopped down on the bed, my teeth sank into my lips, nervousness washing over me wave after wave. The mortifying image flashed through my head: a wide hall and I at the center, a person’s arm on my waist, he would twirl, the hem of my dress spreading round in a gorgeous circle, splashes of reds and white. Then, one foot over the other, m

  • His Captive, His Mate, His Queen    Chapter 68: Butterfly To Web

    ~Ioana~"Ramon tried to kill me?" I thought, blood drained off my face.My head turned to him mechanically, I couldn't believe what I just heard, a ringing in my ears.I didn't want to believe it.We were just talking right now, I remembered how I chuckled, how his eyes lit up with a warmth that made my stomach twist. Everything wasn't perfect, but it was good, so… how could he, who did all these, try to… kill me?Just the thought alone made my fingers tremble, I fisted them under the blanket to control it, but I couldn’t.When? Where? The words rotated round my mind.At the same time, Ramon countered,"You seek to smear my reputation, prince," his face contorted into a frown."Yes Ioana, maybe it's a rumour, maybe it's a lie," I whispered, speaking to myself. I wasn’t sure if it was to calm my pounding heart or drive away the chill that broke out all over my skin.But Alessandro’s next words shattered my pitiful attempt to shield my mind, the corners of his lips curled in what seemed

  • His Captive, His Mate, His Queen    Chapter 67: His Eyes Like Inferno

    ~Ioana~"It must be hard being a queen…" he spoke with a sigh."Well…" my words hung awkwardly in the air. What could I say to such a statement? He brought the spoon to my lips and I sipped, little-by-little contemplating."It's not." Finally, I shook my head, denying.He gave me a long look. It seemed to contain a thousand words but he opted for, "I think it is. You were unconscious when they brought you in…" He placed the spoon down. "You didn't see the way they reacted even hours later while you were in a coma, like the heavens were about to crash."I chuckled, then coughed a couple of times. "Isn't that a good thing?" I smiled."It’s supposed to be—that is, if they were concerned about you it would have been touching."My heart dropped. I gave him a look. "What do you mean?" I replied drily, moving my eyes away."I mean what I said, Queen. No one asked for your well-being." He paused, cocked his head to the side. "Actually, they did but—" he shook his head, "it's different." He gr

  • His Captive, His Mate, His Queen    Chapter 66: The Hands That Held Me

    ~Ioana~…Her Highness… later… she's…Sounds flittered through my ears.The moment I opened my eyes, white flowy drapes dangled before my eyes. They swayed with the wind.I have to see… the voice came again then came to a halt,I see. It said.I shifted my eyes away from the drapes. Where was I? I scrunched my brows in confusion. How did I get here? A sense of déjà vu slammed into me.The last thing I recall was meeting up with Ramon in the streets and then I ran away in panic, eager to get away from the prying eyes.To… the forest—oh that's right. Ramon called it the lower rings.And after that, my lips tugged upwards, a smile blossoming. I remember the freedom I've never experienced before, my heartstrings were strung.And then. We had a run and afterward, a chill spread, dousing my excitement—the suffocation, how I struggled, but the water weighed down on me, my sight blurred, I was dying. My hands flew to my throat, I gasped, greedily breathing in.My throat closed as if someone cl

  • His Captive, His Mate, His Queen    Chapter 65: "You Hesitated… Is That Your Love"

    ~Ioana~A force rested on my chest, it pressed down, quick then released, it happened for the second… third time.On my chest—but something was odd, it covered more than my chest, even my—'Huu.' My eyes snapped open, I woke up with a jolt, my stomach twisted immediately. I turned to my side, letting out water from my lungs, it stung.Coughing.My chest rose and fell with each breath.Before I could understand what happened, arms scooped me up from the ground, into warm embrace. That's when I realized how chilly my skin was against the surface of his skin.I took in deep, greedy breaths. "There, there," someone patted my back. My lashes fluttered, vision blurred into focus, but it wasn't crystal clear. Even the moon looked like a big fuzzy luminous ball. Turning my head to the side—My breath came out as a slight wheeze, but I could make out a figure some distance away from me, and another. I traced the arms holding me upward.Thump.My heart skipped. I couldn't make out his facial fe
