Chapter 19 - Death by Fighting
When Anklet told her she would be trained on how to fight, Solene wasn’t surprised. She assumed it was because of the hostage incident in the wedding boutique that was why Henri ordered it. She couldn’t complain though. Her grandfather had already trained her how to fight in the past. If she didn’t stop those trainings when she reached high school she would have probably become a black belter now.
Solene just nodded in understanding and went to the bathroom to take a bath. When she watched her reflection in the mirror, her mouth immediately gaped and a visible blush colored her cheeks.
She wasn’t too innocent not to recognize the angry bruise on her neck that looked particularly like a kiss mark. Remembering her moment with Henri, she bit her bottom lip. So this was what he meant by ‘flaunt it however I like.’
She couldn’t do that of course not because she was asham

Solene was led inside the Master’s chamber that evening by Norman and Patricia. The entire time she traipsed the hallway, her thoughts swam to the idea that not only was she about to have a dinner date with Henri, but she will be entering his room once again.The very room where she woke up this morning and the very room she will be sleeping tonight.This was good practice for her future married life with him, she thought, but still, that didn’t mean her heart wasn’t pounding like crazy, especially when thinking about their intimate session in her room. It was highly likely it would happen again in the very near future.Once Norman opened the double doors, she entered and gaped. Truly,

Henri neared Solene, his pace unhurried. He relished watching her get all flustered with his words, words that even he himself was surprised. They spilled unchecked from his mouth, but he didn’t regret actually saying them. She had to know she was safe ′from’ him, ′with’ him, and that he cared about her safety and happiness above all.Gently, he ran his thumb along her cheekbones all the while she stayed glued to her seat. He saw her stiffen briefly, felt her slight discomfort, but he understood why she had these instinctual reactions. Just like him, she was new to this kind of relationship. They both needed to adjust. They both needed to take each step with caution.He leaned a little planning to end this evening dinner with a kiss or kisses maybe, but then he noticed a shadow move in a darkened part of the mansion roof. He knew immediately what this meant.“You must be tired,”

Meridith handed her a wrapped box while Solene sat in her receiving room’s couch. She gave her mother a questioning look and asked, “What’s this, mom?”“Open it, Solene, and you’ll see,” she simply stated.Furrowing her brows, Solene unwrapped the box and found its content to be rather surprising.“This is father’s book,” she muttered and glanced at her mother in awe.“Yes,” Meridith nodded just as she looked at Riza.“That book is called the Book of Death, Solene,” the older woman stated.“But your father prefers to call it a grimoire,” Meridith added. “It is time I give it to you.”“Is this a wedding present mom?” was Solene’s question. She remembered holding this book back when she was still six. She found it on

Solene found a place where she could cry her heart out and oddly enough, it was the center of the maze where the statue of the theta lay. This was illuminated with soft spotlights numerous enough to make her feel safe around the darkness of the area. She sat at the edge of the fountain and brought her knees closer together so that her head could rest, while the grimoire, well, she left it lying on the ground. She didn't have an urge to open it yet.There was not a single sound of her sob, but her eyes streamed grossly with tears. They fell like liquid crystals onto the cobblestone ground, similar to the fountain's splashes of water.Indeed she felt betrayed by her family and it deeply stabbed her trust in them, but still, she understood their side as to why they had to keep the truth from her. After all, her mother and father got what they wanted. She was able to live her life normally, or at least for the past six years where the tattoos pr

For Solene, everything came in a rush the next morning. First, she was awakened by Meridith and Patricia with silly smiles on their faces and stacks of boxes behind them obviously full of her wedding outfit. This made Solene blush and remember that this was the day she was getting married.Second, after a short, peaceful bath, she was pulled quickly by Armand’s team to do the hair and make-up. Solene was silent the whole time, only answering and smiling whenever it was necessary. She recalled her talk with Henri last night and the parting words he gave her before she went back to her room with the book.’I’ll make sure you won’t regret marrying me, Solene.”She was more than certain he wasn’t bluffing at all when he said that. He had been doing an excellent job as her betrothed since the very beginning and so, surely, as her husband soon he would do even better.&n

“Easy now, Solene, are you trying to drunk yourself?” Henri asked when he noticed Solene downing her third flute of wine in less than two hours.They were in the couple’s table located in the central area of the customized stage inside the grand hall of the Rantzen mansion. Behind them was a wall of white tulips supported by massive Greek-inspired pillars. In their front were the guests, comfortably sitting on their seats while a popular Spanish band played their lively tunes.The reception party was in full swing. Spectacular introductions of the Mr. and Mrs. were done earlier by Joyce’s team and well wishes by Solene’s family and Henri’s siblings were done along with the cake cutting, first dance, and the toast.Solene was all smiles during these moments while Henri remained pleased with her reactions. He couldn’t keep his eyes off his beautiful wife then, more so

With the way they were positioned, Solene couldn’t see her husband, but she was certain it was him behind her. Aside from his voice, his scent was the same, his height was the same, even the feel of his strong hands was the same. Everything about him was the same and this earned goosebumps on her arms and nape.His nearness was intoxicating, filling her with excitement and longing. He had elicited the same kind of feelings back in her room when he checked her tattoos, but it was abruptly cut off considering...well, they weren’t exactly married yet. But now, with their wedding done, she expected these feelings to linger a hundredfold. This was their wedding night after all and of course, some bed action was in order. Playing game boards and watching movies were the last things in their minds.“Done with reading Lloyd a bedtime story?” Solene asked as she lowered her hands and half shifted her face towards
MY SCYTHE-WIELDING HUSBAND Chapter 27 - Death by Teasing
It was early eight in the morning when Solene woke up. She first registered the soft rays of the sun filtering through the glass doors and then a faint sound of water running inside the bathroom. She hummed a relaxed tune, still wanting to enjoy the softness of the mattress and the pillows, but as the events of last night started flooding inside her, she quickly sat up and tossed a wide-eyed look at the empty space beside her.Henri wasn’t present, but she was willing to bet it was he who was inside the bathroom showering.‘Showering...’ her thoughts voiced out and ideas of him naked—something she wasn’t able to witness last night—drowned her poor, virgin mind. Her heart skipped beats then. She took a long breath to calm herself and fortunately it worked.“Uh, what the...” she muttered, her mouth hanging thereafter upon seeing her current state.
