Serah's POV

The morning light filtered through the narrow windows of the palace like it had decided to be gentle for once. I was still trying to wrap my head around the sudden shift when maids appeared at my cell door, faces bright and nervous. They unlocked it, their voices soft and respectful. “My lady, Lord Jethro has called for you, please allow us to prepare you.” They led me upstairs. I expected more questions or another round of accusations, but instead they took me straight to the bathi

  • Rise Of The Abandoned Bride   Chapter 41

    ~Serah POV~I watched from the far side of the hall as Serah suddenly collapsed. One moment she was walking tall after leaving the council meeting, the next, her knees buckled, and she dropped to the stone floor. Jethro moved faster than I had ever seen him. He shoved the rogues aside when they tried to help, screaming her name as he scooped her up in his arms. "Serah! Serah, wake up!"The sound of his voice cut through me like a knife. He carried her straight to his private chamber, holding her close like she was the most precious thing in the world. I followed at a distance, my chest tight. So this was it? Jethro still loved her, huh? He still cared that much about her, because seeing the way he shouted her name and pushed everyone else away, told me everything I needed to know.I stood outside the chamber door for a moment, thinking hard. Was she really collapsing, or was this another trick to gain pity? No matter what, I would make sure she was sent away. The portion I had given L

  • Rise Of The Abandoned Bride   Chapter 40

    ~Serah's POV~I could not let it rest, the rogue's words kept echoing in my head as I walked through the lower courtyard where the servants worked. Maids carried baskets of fresh linens, rogues sharpened their weapons and cleaned armor in the open yard, while everyone moved with the steady rhythm of daily tasks. Leo stood among them, laughing at something one of the maids said while he helped stack crates.I marched straight up to him and grabbed his arm hard. "Why did you lie?"He turned, his eyes wide and the laughter died on his lips. "My queen… I do not know what you are talking about."Then the others stopped working instantly as the maids also set down their baskets. Rogues lowered their tools, and everyone stared at us in surprise.I pulled him closer. "You told me Lydia asked you to get close to me and said she wanted it to look like an affair. Now you stand here pretending you never spoke those words?"Leo shook his head slowly. "I swear, my queen. I have not said anything li

  • Rise Of The Abandoned Bride   Chapter 39

    ~Lydia POV~I watched from the upper balcony as Serah stormed away from the young rogue near the garden wall. My heart beat faster because the plan was already moving, but I had not expected her to catch us talking so soon. I turned to leave when I heard her voice ring out behind me."Stop right there, Lydia!"Serah marched straight toward me, her face tight with anger, and Jethro appeared from nowhere and walked beside her, close enough that their arms almost brushed. Guess his wondering what is going on.I lifted my chin. "What do you want?"Serah stopped a few steps away. "I just left your rogue servant, and he told me everything. You asked him to get close to me, to make it look like we were having an affair! Have you lost your mind? What kind of ridiculous game are you playing now?"Jethro's eyebrows shot up. He glanced at me, surprised.I widened my eyes and let my voice sound shocked. "An affair? What are you saying, Serah? How could you accuse me of such a lie? After everythin

  • Rise Of The Abandoned Bride   Chapter 38

    ~Serah POV~I walked through the quiet garden path the next evening, enjoying the cool air on my skin after a long day. Silas slept peacefully in my arms, wrapped in a soft blanket. The naming ceremony had brought a strange kind of peace to the palace, but I still felt watchful, as if something in the air felt off, like eyes were always following me.Near the old stone wall by the side gate, I spotted two figures standing close together in the shadows. One was clearly Lydia and the other was a young rogue servant I had seen around the palace before. They spoke in low voices, heads bent toward each other as Lydia's hand rested on his arm as she whispered something urgent.I stepped closer without thinking. "What is going on here?"Lydia turned sharply and for a moment her face showed surprise, then it smoothed coldly. "Can't I speak to whoever I want now? Must every conversation now go through the queen?"Her tone carried the old bite, it was obvious that she's still pained for apologi

  • Rise Of The Abandoned Bride   Chapter 37

    ~Lydia's POV~I stood there in the middle of the room, staring at Jethro and Serah like I had walked into some kind of nightmare. "Is this why you brought me here?" My voice came out sharp, but inside my chest everything felt heavy and tight.The guards had dragged me straight from the cold stone cell. I could still picture it clearly in my mind, the damp walls covered in green slime, the iron bars that smelled of rust and old blood, the tiny puddle of water in the corner that never dried. I had paced that small space for hours, feeling the weight of every insult Serah had thrown at me. Now they expected me to stand here and beg?Jethro looked at me without any softness. "I said, apologize to Serah right now or risk being taken back to the dungeon."Serah held Silas close to her chest, watching me with calm eyes and Maribel stood a few steps behind her, quiet and watchful as always. I felt my pride burn, but I knew I had no choice if I wanted to be out of that hole because I don't kno

  • Rise Of The Abandoned Bride   Chapter 36

    Serah's POVI stood at the entrance of the dungeon, rage burning hot in my chest like fresh blood. The memory of Lydia slapping me in front of the maids still stung on my cheek. She really thought she could disrespect me openly and the only punishment would be a night in this cold cell? Hell no! That was too easy, and merciful.Before she could even turn fully toward the sound of my footsteps, I moved and sped like a wind through the bars, my fangs were fully extended, claws out. My nails raked across her arms, her shoulders, chest, even deeper that I got angry and made the scratches tear through her fabric and skin. Lydia gasped, trying to fight back, swinging wildly, but I was faster now. Stronger that every time she reached for me, I was already somewhere else, leaving fresh marks on her body.She stumbled backward, blood welling up in her thin red lines. "Stop!" She yelled.But I didn't because I wanted her to feel even a fraction of the humiliation she had thrown at me for months
