CeliaI sat in my room for a long time, knees drawn together as Jasper had walked away without letting me have an orgasm.But his eyes and the way he had looked at me...they seemed beyond hurt. My wolf, Rain, spoke in my head,“I feel very confused about this.”I was angry, furious at him. Half of my brain wanted to drag him back here and continue what he was doing while the other half began worrying about Vasil again.‘Ugh’ I grabbed my head and groaned in frustration.I wiped a tear off my cheek as I greeted her, “I thought you had stopped talking to me”Rain replied gloomily, “I have been trying to analyze my feelings…our feelings and watching everything silently.”“And?” I asked her blankly.She answered in the same low voice, “I…I think we have managed to steal the heart of the youngest Lycan prince.”“What?” I blurted out.Rain continued, “Yes. I have a very good reason to believe so. Vasil is our mate, but Jasper is truly in love with you, Celia. His eyes speak what his mouth d
CeliaI turned around and saw a servant standing in front of me. He had his head bowed to me politely and looked a little troubled.“Yes?”He looked up at me and answered, “Lady Celia, the King has requested your presence.”I furrowed my eyebrows, “Are you sure it is me the King wants to speak to?”He nodded his head, “Yes, my lady.""Uh, Mark, can you ask somebody to check on him? He fainted all of a sudden." I lied, unsure of whether this servant had seen me hit Mark."Yes, my lady. I will inform the maids and send over someone else for duty here" He mumbled and began walking forward.That meant he had not really seen anything. But that was now less of a puzzle to me compared to the one that had just greeted me.I had been living here for almost a year and had never been called to the King’s chamber. The only time I had seen him was the first day I was dragged here and then months ago when I had sneaked in his private meeting chamber with Arwen.I was just one of the many girls in t
CeliaI stared at him with wide eyes as he began coughing violently. I got up from the chair in alarm and ran to him but he just would not stop coughing blood.“Maids!! Help!! The King’s health is deteriorating!!”I screamed and immediately the doors opened and the guards saw the King coughing blood all over. And, before I could speak a word, Matron Arwen stepped in through the door.She looked at me and then at the King covered in blood and immediately shouted, “Take her out”The guards hesitated a moment but she yelled again, “What are you waiting for?”They closed in on me but did not grab my hands or manhandle me. I only looked at her coldly before walking out of the room, letting the guards lead the way and walked out of the room.I was furious at Matron Arwen and I would have my way with her later. But, my mind was currently occupied with the discussion I had with the King.Why had he called me to talk and what did he mean by a mole? Was it an insider who had planned the attack
CeliaIf my eyes could have fallen out of my skull, they would be already rolling on the floor near my feet.What the absolute bullshit was I hearing?For a minute, my mind went blank, and all I heard was the sound of angry growling.I could not stand still any more and I threw the doors open. And there the two brothers were, glaring at each other.Jasper had his hand around Draken’s neck, and Draken was clawing at him to free himself.I shrieked hysterically, “Jasper, please let him go…” Jasper did not even hear me at first, and he kept glaring at Draken. Draken’s eyes soon turned white, and he was turning paler by the second.When Jasper would not listen to me, I went directly in front of him and jumped a little, my hands thrown in the air to make him look at me.“Jasper, please, leave him…now!!”I yelled, and it was only then that Jasper registered my presence. His gray eyes had turned briefly silver for a moment, and I could not help but stare at him in shock.He had gone complet
CeliaIf confusion would ever have a face, it was mine at the moment.I blinked, wondering if I had heard it all wrong. But Jasper only gave me a look that said, ‘Trust me, I know what I am doing’So, I stayed put while Draken finished the glass in his hand.I kept observing his face, trying to understand what had possessed him all of a sudden.But he really seemed joyous over the fact that he was going to become the next King. Jasper threw a warning look at me to tell me to shut it.So, he went towards Draken who was going to have another drink.“Drake, that is enough for today. Time to go to bed”Draken smiled foolishly at his brother, “Yeah, right. But, you will not back out at the last moment, right?”His eyebrows furrowed as Jasper shook his head, “You have my word.”Then he looked towards the door and shouted, “Guards!!”The door immediately opened and four to five guards came rushing in.“Take Prince Draken to his room.”Draken shook his head, “No, I don’t need the guards to ta
JasperI squinted my eyes at her. “My dear lycan prince?”Celia giggled like a little girl and I pulled her close, wanting to devour her then and there. My hands went around her waist and I slammed her body upon mine, wanting to tear her clothes apart, but she put a finger on my lips.“Please, Jasper. Vasil…he told that he felt pain when I…when we spend the night together. I…I cannot do that again while still knowing that it will hurt him.”My smile crumbled a little, but I did not let go of her. It felt nice to have her in my embrace and feel the steady beating of her heart close to mine.“So, you want to be with me, but you want to do it without hurting Vasil?” I asked, my heart fluttering wildly in my chest.Celia looked down, her hair falling on her face.I put my hands below her chin and made her look up at me. “Come on, answer me.”Celia’s gray eyes and her kissable lips opened to say the words I had been waiting to hear.“I do”My smile turned even wider than it already was and
Jasper Celia could not hold it in anymore and the tears fell out of her eyes eventually. I tried reassuring her but she would not stop sobbing. And somehow I realized that I had to let her cry, to let her frustration out. “Shh, it is okay,” I whisper softly but she is crying hysterically now, breaking down in my arms and I do not know what to do. I am the lycan prince, who even the King is wary of, but I cannot find a way to calm down my girl and it is hurting me beyond words. Celia grabs hold of my shirt and sobs in it, her tears soaking the fabric. I rub my hands over her back and head, soothingly but her muffled sobbing is too much to bear. I curtly look at Nymeria and signal to her that I cannot stay inside anymore. I step aside into the narrow passageway that leads to the room. The guards are stationed outside but I ask them to leave. Nobody has to see her break down like this. The guards leave without a word and I half carry her outside while she is still crying. “Celia
Jasper Nymeria nodded her head grimly. “Yes, and this seems to be a long and exhaustive process. Vasil is completely under someone’s control and the gaps in his behavior…those happen when the control slips.” Okay, that caught my attention. “Can you elaborate, Nym?” Nymeria wiped her hand on a cloth after washing her hands and replied, “I do not want to comment more without finding out something myself first. But, it is a good thing that you have him here. Do not send him elsewhere.” Celia’s lips trembled. “But, he will be okay, right?” Nymeria walked towards her and gave her hand a small squeeze. “I will try my best. If required, I will also ask for Keltia’s help.” She then looked at me. “I have some potions and herbs that should be given to him to induce heavy sleep. When he is under that effect, he will probably not feel anything else. It will help him calm his mind. Then, when he seems a bit relaxed, I can talk to him again.” I beamed at her, “You are a savior, Nym.” She g
