Nina's POV

The afternoon tea was set up in the main salon. Bright light streamed through the large glass windows, illuminating the long wooden table.

Joy and I sat on one side of the table, enjoying our quiet cups of chamomile tea. Everything was peaceful until Gwen walked in. She carried a small tray with a dark ceramic teapot and a single porcelain cup, setting it down directly in front of me with a tight, artificial smile.

"I had the kitchen prepare this special tea for you, Nina," Gwen said

  • The Blind Luna’s Secret: His Substitute Bride   Chapter 33

    Romeo's POV."You're finally here," Luca said as soon as I walked into the office."Are you better now?" he asked. The playful smile on his face was now replaced with worry."I'm okay. You don't need to look at me like someone who just escaped the jaws of death," I replied as I sat down."You know this is not normal, and this is not the first time you're collapsing. Why hasn't anyone found the cure yet?" he asked, hitting the table in annoyance."It was a cursed arrow. I've accepted my fate. I'll die in a year or two," I replied, trying to keep the frustration out of my voice."Are you really serious right now? If you can find the woman with the strong ancient blood, she can heal you, and you know that," he countered, trying to sound hopeful."And have you seen anyone yet? You know finding such a person is impossible, and I'm not ready to waste my remaining years on someone who might not even exist," I replied firmly."You know I'll not stop. I'll do everything to find her and make su

    NinaNina's POV. "Let's leave this place Lora," he said pulling my hand trying to stand up. "No you need to rest really, I'm okay, you're still recovering." Candace said trying to stop him but one glare from Romeo told her otherwise. "But..." I tried to finish my words but I was already halfway out of the room. His hand clamped tightly but gently around mine as he pulled me through the hallway, for the first time in my life someone stood up for me, this man, he was making me feel a lot of things that I couldn't place. 'All this would be gone once he finds out you're fake,' the thought passed through my head making me shiver in fear. I knew the truth, I knew my future once he found out the truth, would he still be this caring. "You shouldn't let them do that to you." Romeo complained as soon as we got into our room. "And what?" I asked softly. "If I reject her order, it would only cause problems between me and your mother and I won't be able to win over her love if she already

  • The Blind Luna’s Secret: His Substitute Bride   Chapter 31

    Steven steered his car through the quiet, dusty streets of Nina’s old hometown, his hands gripping the steering wheel tight. He looked at the modest, faded houses passing by his window with clear disgust. He could not understand how Nina had lived in a boring, middle-of-nowhere place like this before they even met.Following Lacy’s sharp advice, he skipped the main town markets and drove straight toward the residential neighborhood where her mother had remarried.He pulled up right outside the two-story house owned by Nina’s stepfather. Steven turned off the engine, grabbed his leather jacket, and stepped out onto the gravel driveway.He smoothed down his collar, confident that his expensive clothes, wealthy status, and polished appearance would give him total control over whatever conversation was about to happen inside. He walked up the wooden porch steps and knocked firmly on the front door, waiting patiently for someone to answer.The door creaked open, revealing Nina’s stepfather

    We stepped out of the eatery 2 hours later. I adjusted the strap of my bag on my shoulder as the afternoon sun shone brightly.“Thank you so much for today. I really appreciate.” I said as Fletcher held the door open for me.“You really don't have to thank me. I am doing this because I want to.”“I do. You went out of your way to buy Zara gifts and you sat with me for 2 hours which was probably one of the best afternoons so far.”He smiled. "I enjoyed it too. Talking to you is therapy."I glanced down at the shopping bag in his hand and inside were the SpongeBob items and the Harry Potter fanfiction book series he had bought for Zara on his trip to Bareland.“My daughter is going to be so happy when she sees all this. You should have seen how excited she was the last time someone gave her a SpongeBob toy. And also the FanFiction books, she's going to love them so much. Lately, she's been obsessed with Harry Potter.”“Im glad.”“But to be honest with you Fletcher, you really didn't ha

    Nina's POVI sat by Romeo’s bed in the dimly lit chamber, holding a heavy leather ledger tightly in my lap.The room was deathly quiet except for the slow, steady rhythm of his breathing under the thick blankets.Spread across the small side table were the rest of the ancient history books and territory law records that Joy had recommended for my study sessions.I tried to focus my tired eyes on the small hand-drawn maps on the parchment, but my mind was far too scattered to process the words.Gwen’s sharp words kept echoing inside my head, tormenting me with a deep, suffocating sense of dread.Was Steven really in town right now, asking questions and searching the streets for me? It did not make any sense at all. I had left his house completely so he could finally be with Lacy, just like he had always wanted.He had spent months treating me like an inconvenient burden, so why would he suddenly waste his time and energy hunting me down now?Then the harsh truth hit me, making my jaw t
