Chapter 37 - Rosamund
A smile immediately stretched my lips upon stirring awake. I had a good sleep, I guess. I turned to my side to see the bed empty, the sheets were crumpled.
“Cassius,” I looked around but the room was empty.
Then I heard someone on the balcony. I got up from the bed and walked barefooted. I'm pretty sure I remember him falling asleep last night with me, in the bed. He looked so tired from work; I wonder what he had been taking care of the whole day. He still managed to get up early.
I saw Cassius leaning on the stone rails of the balcony. He was having his usual cup of coffee.

Cassius disappeared after our talk. I was surprised that he has now allowed me to take tours around the castle but only if I’m accompanied by Lilana. So I agreed and now, we are taking strolls outside the castle.“Can you take me where Rosamund is? I heard she’s in the forest to bury her rabbit. I want to see my daughter.” I couldn’t help but to smile at the word that just rolled out my lips. I have a daughter now.Lilana seemed surprised for a second, “Of course, my lady.”She led me to the maze garden. A few minutes later we arrived at the far exit of the maze. There lies a rusty gate which L

I saw two men dragging Rosamund by her arms. There were six of them in this narrow alley. The fact that these vampires dare to even touch Rose made my blood boil instantly.“Rosamund!” I called, struggling to wiggle my arms from this man’s grip. There were two men with me. The other man was busy tailing us, a cigar placed between his fingers; he looked younger than his friends. He was a look out, watching people who pass the alley making sure no one dares to walk in.“Quiet!” The stranger exclaimed, extremely pissed.I glared at him when his grip tightened even more. If only I had my power right now, this

It was early in the morning when my bedroom door busted open revealing Rosamund with a smile stretched on her lips. Her wavy hair fell down her waist elegantly, swaying along with her beige dress that fell shortly at her ankle.“Good morning, mother!” She greeted me with a cheerful tone.A chuckle escaped my lips when she jumped onto my bed beside me. I raised the duvet to let her in under the warm sheets. I heard her giggle and moved closely towards me.“Morning to you too, princess.” I replied with a smile.A s
The Girl in the Wilderness Chapter 41 - A Date
The breakfast ended after the Queen left the dining hall. Cassius led me outside the castle and into the forest like he promised. He wouldn’t want to break his promise, right? I may have also added some things to do on our so-called date and gladly he agreed.“So where to?” I asked him, looking around the woods.“This way,” He pulled my hand to the far east of the forest.After a couple of minutes speeding up, we arrived at the place. It really is wonderful here. There’s a ruin and half of it has already turned to huge pieces of stones on the snowy ground. You can see the interior from here. Nature has alr

“So where do you want to go next?” He asked, staring at me with his pretty emeralds.I pressed my lip, “Hm, I don’t know. Since we went to myfavoriteplace, maybe we can go to yourfavoriteplace. Do you have afavoriteplace?”“Should we go to mylakehouse?”My eyes widened, “You have alakehouse?”He nodded, “I do, it was a gift from my father when I was little. Vienna and Damon used to accompany me here during the summer. Vee would lie to my father telling him that we’ll be training by the lake but we’ll most likely be bathing.” He chuckled to himsel

“Cassius!” I groaned as I pulled my body out of his arms. I stood up with the sheets wrapped around me. I walked to his closet and picked a fresh set of clothing.“Come back to bed,” Cassius' soft tone made me smirk. This man, really! He’s insatiable. We’ve been up all night and now he can’t get his hands off of me.“I have somewhere else to be and I already told you that,” Once I’ve finished changing, I grab the hair brush to fix my hair.“Where? Is it important?” He leaned back on the headboard, only his lower body being covered by white sheets. Now his torso is exposed I can’t help but to take a quick glance at his ripped abs.&nb

The sky is almost dark, only the shades of orange and pink can be seen. The moon is out already. Vienna and I got back to the castle walking side by side. We would not want to be late for dinner. The Queen is strict when it comes to dinner and no one wants to anger the Queen ofSyrr.The huge double doors to the dining hall busted open as soon as the servant saw us. The long table is a feast as usual. The King is also present tonight. Cassius tapped the seat next to him and smiled at me.Vienna walked to the seat next to Rose while I sat next to Cassius. After a while we started eating in silence. I guess I can say that I’m used to it, the awkward silence in the room while we eat. I figured they just eat that way. Cassius told me it’s a sign of disrespect if we eat while talking.

“But you have no control yet,” He said with a warning tone.I simply ignored him and made my way down the stairs towards the dungeon. My heels clacking against the stone ground. I wore a strapped, pale green maxi dress that was cut just above my ankles.I hear Cassius follow behind me. According to him, the dungeon is located at the very bottom of the castle and there are about six floors. The dungeon is hidden and no one knows about it except for the royal family and some few servants that guard the place.The castle dungeon only imprisoned selected people. While on the other hand, there is also another dungeon located at the east but that is a place for all criminals aroundSyrr.
