Behind The Veil.

The corridor outside Bella’s chamber remained quiet long after the maid had walked away.

Unknown to her someone had been lurking at the door and had been on watch since she had knocked on the door. The man stepped out of the shadows and stood akimbo for what felt like a minute.

Though he had watched the maid step out, he had listened to the two conversations eavesdropping all that while and could tell that something was off.

Noting the way she avoided looking at him as she cu

    Beneath It All.“I don't know what to say.” Bella stuttered.Andre looked at her with something darkening in his eyes.The tension between them had barely settled when the echo of approaching footsteps broke through the corridor.A guard appeared at the far end. His pace was brisk as he stopped just short of Andre, bowing his head slightly.“It is done, my lord.”The words were simple, but whatever it was she could tell he was in on it too.Enough that Andre’s expression shifted almost instantly. “Good,” Andre replied.Bella watched him closely, her pulse quickening again, though for a different reason now. Something in his tone had changed and she had known him too long for her to know this wasn't something good.“Andre?" She called out.Without another word to her, Andre turned.For a fraction of a second, it felt like he might say something else. Might look back. But he didn’t…He walked away.Bella remained where she stood, her fingers slowly loosening from the tight grip they ha

    CHAPTER 64A Pile of Secrets.“I hope you know what you are doing, Lady Bella." Aria muttered just again.Bella remained where she was listening to the sound of her own heart beat.Aria nods and shuts the door behind her, leaving her still in thought. The sound of Aria’s footsteps faded gradually, echoing faintly before disappearing completely into the distance.Only then did Bella exhale, this time her breath was slow but steady.Her gaze shifted back into the room, toward the place where the envelope now laid.Bella stepped back inside fully, opening the door to see if anyone was lurking outside and closing the door once more.Immediately it felt like no one was lurking around the room Bella moved immediately, whatever restraint she had been holding was unravelled as she walked out cautiously.The envelope was in her hands now and Bella stared at it. Up close, it looked no different from many others that she had written herself. And yet—It had the answers to everything?Her grip ti

    Pandora's Box.Bella did not rush out this time. The urgency was still there, coiled tightly beneath her ribs, pressing insistently with every step she took down the corridor, but her pace remained careful.It was as though moving too fast might draw attention that she didn't want.The envelope rested beneath the folds of her sleeve, pressed against her wrist where her pulse beat steadily against it.She was aware of it in a way she couldn’t ignore. Every turn of the corridor felt watched, though no one stood there. It was as though the castle itself had grown aware of what she carried or maybe it was just her.Bella exhaled slowly through her nose and turned the final corner that led toward her chambersNothing looked different so far, it was the same hallway. The same tall windows let in the faint wash of fading light. The same quiet that had always existed here…But it didn’t feel the same. Not anymore.She reached her door and paused out of instinct listening. There was no sound f

    Making Hay While The Sun Shines.Bella did not realize how fast she was walking until she nearly missed the turn that led to Eleanor’s chambers.Her breath came uneven, not from the distance, but from the thoughts pressing in too tightly for her to sort through. Every corridor felt longer than it should have been, the castle had always been quiet, but tonight the silence felt different, maybe because she was walking too fast.She slowed just before reaching the door, her hand hovering for a brief moment above the handle. For a second, doubt crept in again.If she said this aloud, there would be no taking it back. Bella clenched her jaw lightly and pushed the door open without knocking.Eleanor turned immediately. For someone who had seemed so composed moments ago, there was a flicker of something sharp in her eyes the instant Bella stepped inside. “You shouldn’t be here,now ” Eleanor said, her tone calm but firm.A box fell off her hand and the contents spilled to the ground. Bell

    A Loophole.Theo did not slow down until the corridor curved out of sight completely. Even then, his steps only paused for a fraction of a second before continuing again, as though nothing had happened. He could tell himself that he wasn't angry a thousand times but the truth was there and the silence around him no longer felt like something that he could just push off his mind casually.The feeling as it was pressed in, carrying the remnants of that encounter like a scent that refused to fade away.Much as he tried to push it away Andre’s words lingered. Not the obvious ones, not the threats or the arrogance but the certainty of not knowing where he stood in all of this.In a way he thought that he was right?This pregnancy put him at a disadvantage but also was his birth right from the first day. He wouldn't have paid it any attention but his brother chose to be an asshole about it.Theo exhaled slowly, his jaw tightening just slightly as he replayed the conversation again, pick

    A Dangerous GameTheo pushed the door of his chamber open and stepped inside, closing it quietly behind him with a loud thud that echoed down the hallway.He was annoyed but for whatever particular reason he couldn't tell exactly all he knew was coming back was the right thing to do. To think he co

    A Mistake?“Damn! Andre." He cussed as he stormed into the passageway that led to his wing.Theo found Amardi near the lower courtyard waiting with most of the servants long since withdrawn.Amardi stood with his hands clasped behind him, staring at nothing in particular. He did not turn when Theo

    Chapter 22Unfinished TermsBella did not release her father’s hand until they were halfway up the stairs. It felt to her like he might disappear if she did.All of sudden she forgot he was to be blamed for her plight as she tugged on.Her father, though surprised, walked briskly behind her. “Wher

    A Line Worth Crossing Theo had not expected to see her. For a brief second he considered pretending he had not noticed her at all. The garden was wide enough for him to turn around and take another path. It would have been the wiser choice if Bella had not turned.As she did their eyes met acros
