Liora's POV

I make my way to the palace kitchen to get my glass of water. For some reason I am always thirsty after a meal involving meat or fries. And the meals here never miss either.

I pour myself a full glass and take several sips before hearing some noise behind. I turn and see a figure standing in the dark. I lower the glass as my heart beat picks up spread.

The figure steps into the light and I realize who it is.

"Lady Elenour,"

"Yes, it's me. I came around hoping I'll get a chance to speak to you." She answers stepping into the light.

"Shall I fetch the Emporer?" I ask.

"No...no. I was acctually hoping to speak to you privately." She tells.

What would she wish to tell me privately. "Okay."

“We need to talk in a more secure room. People come here all the time,” she responds.

“Follow me.” She moves quickly, leading me away from the bright kitchen. We finally stop into the palace library.

She turns to face me.

  • The Mate Lottery: I Won The Emporer    Inevitable Trouble

    Liora's povI pour a cup of hot tea for my mate while the morning breeze blows my hair over my face. Lordrin gently pulls it back before picking up his drink. I hated our first picnic, but I have finally grown to like eating outdoors of the palace.He scowls after tasting the tea. "That's the first bitter tea I have ever tasted," He comments with a laugh. I frown because I made the tea. I thought it was a good idea since I wanted him to have something made by me. So I made tea and baked our morning cake. I'm glad we are still enjoying our life despite the bad news that came through yesterday. "Oh dear, you have never cooked before, have you?" He asks after tasting the cake.Surely it cannot taste that bad.Even when I lived with my father, heather and her mother I never got the job of preparing food. Her mother despised me so much that the only tasks I got were those that involved cleaning their dirt. I rarely got into the kitchen."Yeah, it's really awful," I answer with a laugh af

  • The Mate Lottery: I Won The Emporer    The Rebellion

    Liora's POV"Hold tight!" My mate voice roars over the wind and my arms clamp tighter around his neck, my face buried into his shoulder. His massive wings propel us over the sun-drenched green hills.Despite my crushing fear of heights, he always finds a way to convince me to fly with him. But I'm grateful he does, it has been three months since the island of luck and our mate bond is stronger than ever. He has been nothing less than a loving mate. Now I feel like I have known him for a lifetime. He performs a breathtaking, dive, before pulling back up and my stomach flip. I let out a half-scream, half-laugh of pure terror."Don't worry," he chuckles, his chest vibrating against my ear. "I would never drop my future Empress."And then goes ahead to do it all over again."You like that, don't you?" he teases, hovering us thousands of feet above the world, which is now reduced to a beautiful, vast green tapestry below."No, I hate it! Take us down!" I wail.I know he wouldn't drop me b

    THREE MONTHS LATER Princess Heather's PovI silently eat my food while watching my father sip his wine like he has no interest in eating.He hasn't spoken a word to me since I came back to his pack. It's obvious that he is ashamed of me, every member of our pack is. Except my mother, of course. Her love is just as strong as it was the day I was born."Try the pancakes. Our daughter made them herself. She is practicing her cooking skills," she tells father."Of what use is her cooking skills when she has already been rejected and sent away by her mate?" he questions with a sneer. Mother shakes her head. "We should be thankful that his Majesty accepted her in the first place. He wanted the most precious of women. But our daughter managed to have him even if it were for a while. A love like that can never fully die. I'm sure if our daughter were to ask his Majesty for anything, he would definitely not denie her." she defends me. But my father still frowns. "That love is over. His Maje

  • The Mate Lottery: I Won The Emporer    The New Mate Bond

    Liora's POV"You look truly stunning, my lady," My personal maid, Lisa tells, her smile almost lulling away my anxiety. Today is the day to recreate my mate bond with the Emperor.Apparently being his mate means having one of the largest and magnificent chambers in the palace and having everything handled for you including bathing and dressing. Which feels very strange when you are used to do everything for yourself. But I do like my maid, she is young and overly friendly. It took her hours to perfectly style my hair with over twenty silver pins. Now I am getting tired of standing in one place as she works on my overly beautiful dress.Now that my name is associated with the Emporer's, I have to always look clean and polished every second."You're lucky your waist is so small, my lady. You won't have to wear a corset and die of suffocation," Lisa jokes."I will escort you to the hall. The Emporer is already there," she says. Servants are going about their work as usual as we make o

  • The Mate Lottery: I Won The Emporer    His Ruthless Side

    Liora's POVThe food feels like rocks in my stomach. The two servants are still whispering in the corner. Turns out being by the Emporer's side and being surrounded by gold isn't a guarantee to peaceful life.They are getting louder now, not even bothering to hide their nasty talk.“It’s truly disgusting” the first servant, a woman with gray hair, says, loud enough for me to hear. “Being mated to a human. His Majesty’s mother would have been very disgusted if she were still here. She'd have pushed her handsome son to choose another.”“She would. But I bet he's not going to keep her,” the second servant agrees. “She’s just a temporary girlfriend. He’ll get tired of her and throw her out, just watch. He only brought her back to show off the wishes she won.”I am furious. I drop my fork onto the plate with a loud clink.
