The Rejected Daughter Chapter Thirty-four
-Noc- I couldn't take my eyes off of her, she was very beautiful. Thorn had sent me a letter a day after we arrived. It said we needed to talk soon. Since it was almost the end of the day so it would have to wait tomorrow. I settled into bed to go to sleep, I was going to be getting up pretty early tomorrow. I drifted off with her lovely face on my mind. ~Next Day~ I rised before the sun had even risen. Dressed in a dark gray cloak I slipped out of the manor and to the stables. The stable hand had my horse ready to go. I mounted her and kicked for her to run. She took off at a quick gait** toward the castle. The air was cool and the fog was heavy. I took in the fresh air. I felt like I was sufficating in that manor. The only one keeping me sane was Lady Nyx. As I entered the castle I halted and dismounted my horse handing her off to a palace stable boy. I entered the grand palace walking to the gardens that Thorn told me to meet him in. As I entered I seen him standing there in is
The Rejected Daughter Chapter Thirty-Five
-Noc-A couple days had came and gone since my meeting with Thorn. Josephine had been suffocating recently and never left me long enough to talk to Nyx. It was very frustrating that she was always around. I was out for a stroll when I seen her rested against a tree. She look like an angel under it. I had to fight the urge to run up and hold her tight. She seemed deep in thought as I got closer her head whipped up to meet my eyes. I smiled warmly at her while she stared me down. "Lady Nyx have you been avoiding me?" I teased her making her cheeks warm. I wish she could see how cute she looked. "I would never Duke Noc." She stated matter of factly with a hidden smile. This made me chuckle. "I promise everything I'm doing will make sense one day. I'll see you at dinner Nyx." I winked before turning to leave. It took everything in me to not turn around. I entered the manpr and headed for the dining room. Majority of everyone was here now except Nyx. I only hoped her father didn't punis
The Rejected Daughter Chapter Thirty-Six: Love? Ha, Don't make me laugh
-Nyx- I woke up with a swollen face. I cried majority of the night. I would fall asleep but it never lasted long enough with all my tossing and turning. I felt exhaused, and my body hurt from my restlessness. As dawn broke I decide it was futile trying to sleep. I slipped out of my bed and headed for my shower. The words Noc had said kept echoing through my mind. I didn't understand any of it. He was engaged to my sister and he knew that I was not really sickly. He knew that my father invented that cover to hid what he had done. And yet he wanted her over me. He could have insisted that he wanted me. Instead of playing these games with my head. Between him and the crowned prince I felt like I was being tugged around like a rag doll. I wasn't something to play with. I shut off the water and stormed out to dress myself. I needed a walk in the garden. The walls of this manor made me feel as if I was suffocating. I quickly dressed in a simple dress. I prefered it this way anyway. All th

The warm sun came in through the window and caressed my skin. Waking me from the small amount of sleep I had managed to get. My body was still quite sore from being beaten the night before. It had taken me forever to fall asleep. “Nyx, get your lazy ass out of bed.” An all familiar shrill came from the door. It was Ariel, and let me tell you she hated my guts. I wasn’t completely sure why she hated me and frankly I didn’t have the energy to figure it out. I rolled my eyes at her as I got out of bed and dressed myself. Only to finish and turn to see her sneering face. “Ariel I don’t have time for you, go worry about yourself.” I snapped at her. Only for her to smirk wickedly at me. “Watch yourself Nyx, you will be answer
The Rejected Daughter Chapter Two: Whine and Dine
After the ordeal with Ariel and Killian I headed to my room. Well it’s not actually my room, it’s a room they keep to upkeep the look that I’m not mistreated. After entering my room I decided to bathe myself. I scrubbed the dirt from my body and washed my hair. By the end I smelled like ginger and jasmine. After I felt clean I exited the bathroom where a maid was waiting. I didn’t exactly know who she was since I rarely worked inside the manor. “Hello miss, my name is Marie and I will be getting you ready.” Her warm voice said. It caught me off guard since most of the help treats me like I’m nothing. “H-hi Marie.” I said before sitting in the chair so she could do my hair. She smiled faintly before starting. Once she was done I looked unrecognizable. She had my hair braided beautifully to the side and my red hair framed my face perfectly. My makeup was light. Only pink blush and mascara. Once all that was done the dress arrived. It was quickly put on me. I silently gasped when I
The Rejected Daughter Chapter Three: Conflicted
~Thorn~ “Your Majesty, Duchess Fallon Von Keem is here to see you.” Colby my butler came into the study to alert me. I nodded to him before responding. “Send my regrets, I have other matters to attend to.” I replied. I could see the fear in his eyes. Fallon Von Keem was a raging fire among a forest. She was relentless and unpredictable. I didn’t even have an interest in her. Of course my father didn’t care about that; he only cared that she would be an advantageous pawn later. However, Colby would do anything I told him to even at great risk to himself. Due to this I promised to take care of his family should anything happen to him. It was the least that I could do. “Right away your Majesty” He answered before leaving the study. ~Fallon~ I was sitting in the Tea room at the royal palace. I had come all this way to spend time with my fiance. But his butler intercepted me before I had made it to his study. He worked way too much. It was almost irritating. But after sitting here,
The Rejected Daughter Chapter Four: Unfair Punishment
WARNING READER DISCRETION ADVISED: Abuse and neglect contained in this chapter. ~Nyx~ I ran all the way to my room, well fake room but who’s keeping track. After closing the door I went over to my bed. As I let myself fall back onto it I took a deep breath. The Crowned Prince just kissed me of all people. Oh if he only knew that I was considered nothing in this household. However, my peace didn’t last long when my door opened to reveal my furious father. I flinched. as he entered. I sat up quickly knowing I was in for it this time. “Why can’t you go one time without disgracing our family with your filth.” He spat with venom making me wince. “W-w-w-what do y-y-you m-mean?” I stuttered out. It only made him more angry. “You ignored the Crowned Prince when he was talking to you and then you left the tea room without wishing anyone goodnight.” He boomed, grabbing my hair to twist my head to meet his red face. I stayed silent, I knew better than to respond with excuses. The punishme
The Rejected Daughter Chapter Five: Deceit
~Thorn~ Once we had returned to the palace I called for Colby. I headed to my office to await him. I was doing work when there was a clearing of the throat. I looked up to see Colby waiting for me to meet his face. “Your Majesty, I was told you needed my services?” He questioned filled with confusion since I didn’t call for him during late hours very often. “Yes, I need you to look into something for me. Specifically into Lady Nyx.” When I said her name Colby’s face lit up with even more confusion. “Lady Nyx Sparrow, your Majesty?” He questioned again with a bewildered look on his face. “Yesm something is off about her behavior. Marquess Sparrow is hiding something. And I want to know what it is and why she’s going along with it.” I answered deep in my thoughts. “Very well, I will look into the matter as discreetly as possible.” Colby answered before crossing his hand over his chest and bowing. It was a motion of the highest honor. It showed loyalty and trust to the one on the
