Nolan’s POVI woke up in the seer’s cave with Kim sitting a few feet away from me.For a moment, I stared at the cave ceiling, trying to gather my thoughts. My body still felt weak, and there was a dull ache in my chest that reminded me of what had happened the previous night.Then I remembered Ronnie.“How long have I been here?” I asked.Kim looked up from his phone. “Basically the whole morning.”The whole morning?A small sigh escaped my lips.I had barely slept the previous night. After the attack, I had returned to my room hoping that some rest would help me recover, but it hadn’t. The pain had eased a little, only to return whenever I tried to move. By the time I realised I wasn’t getting any better, I knew I couldn’t remain in my room.I had to get to the seer’s cave.The problem was that I could barely move on my own.I had waited until the palace was quiet and every member of the family had gone to sleep. More importantly, I had waited until Ronnie was no longer outside my r
Ronnie’s POVWhat I had seen from Kim’s memory refused to leave me.I kept sweating profusely as I made my way back to my room.“Faking a stomach ache just to snoop into Kim’s memory and know what they were hiding from me?” I thought out loud as I scurried out of the long hall that led to his office.I don’t know if I should say that I wish I never did that cause the whole thought of Nolan dying came back fresh in my head and refused to leave.The way I had seen him in that Vision.It was way too scary. The only time I had ever seen Nolan that weak was after that arrow attack he had the first time I came to the palace.I couldn’t explain the fear that crippled me.I was very close to the passage leading to my room when I heard my name.“Ronnie!”Jessie appeared a moment later, looking like she had been searching for me for hours.“There you are!” she exclaimed. “I’ve been looking for you everywhere. Why weren’t you picking up my calls?”I reached into my pocket for my phone, only to r
Ronnie’s POVHow could I ever find sleep with Nolan occupying every corner of my brain?Before the break of the day, I was already out of my mom’s room and standing in front of Nolan’s room to catch the moment he would finally step out.I waited for a very long time, yet saw no sign of Nolan.This time around, when I asked the guards if he was in, they refused to tell me. They just greeted me, and everything I said after the greetings was ignored. I couldn’t explain how pissed off this made me, but I couldn’t just walk away.It was around 4:35 AM when I got there, and even until 10:33 AM I was waiting without any result. There was still no sign of Nolan.The palace had gone from quiet to busy right before my eyes. Everyone who passed by watched me like a woman who was insane, but I didn’t mind.I soon got frustrated, standing by the side of the door where I had sat, finding my way to his office.When I got there, it was just Kim there. So he truly is inside?Maybe I shouldn’t have tur
Ronnie’s POVWhat just happened?I sat in the car, staring out the window as we drove back to the palace, but my mind was nowhere near the road.One moment, Nolan and I had been having dinner, and the next, he was rushing away from me without giving me a proper explanation.I knew something was wrong.I just didn't know what it was.And the fact that he hadn't returned to the table before I left made everything worse.When I finally got back to the palace, Jessie was waiting for me. The moment she saw me, her face lit up.“Ronnie!” She hurried towards me, her eyes shining with excitement. “Tell me everything! From the beginning to the end. What happened? Did he propose? What did he say?”I stared at her for a moment before letting out a sigh.“I messed up.”Her smile faded a little.“What do you mean you messed up?”“I don't even know, Jessie.” I rubbed my forehead. “I honestly don't know what happened tonight.”I could still remember the way Nolan had looked at me before he suddenly
Nolan's POVFor a moment, Ronnie simply stared at me without saying anything.I wanted to ask her what was going through her mind, but I decided against it. I had already told her what I wanted, and the last thing I wanted was to make her feel pressured into giving me an answer.She eventually cleared her throat.“I'm still thinking about it.”I swallowed hard.“Okay.”“For now, let's just enjoy this delicacy before us.”She picked up her cutlery and continued eating as though she hadn't just left me hanging after telling her I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her.I stared at her for a moment before forcing myself to nod.“Sure!”What else could I say?I had expected different reactions from her, but I certainly hadn't expected her to postpone the conversation and return to her food.Still, I couldn't blame her. I had hurt her before, and she had every right to take her time before making a decision about spending the rest of her life with me.I just hoped she wouldn't make m
Ronnie’s POV“Where exactly are you taking me?”I turned to look at Nolan for the third time since we left the palace.He only smiled, his golden eyes fixed on the road ahead.“Somewhere nice.”“Somewhere nice?” I repeated. “You couldn’t just tell me that before making me dress up like this?”He finally glanced at me, and that smile on his face widened.“You look beautiful.”I rolled my eyes, but I couldn’t stop the smile that threatened to appear on my face.“That’s not an answer to my question.”“It’s the only answer you’re getting for now.”I shook my head and looked out the window.What the heck is he up to? And what’s all these sweetness lately? I stole another glance at him.Nolan had his usual mafia style beard, and his sandalwood scent filled the car. He looked annoyingly good, as usual, and I hated that I was beginning to get used to having him around me like this.Or maybe I didn’t hate it.That was the problem.I was beginning to enjoy his attention more than I wanted to a
Ronnie's POV The invitation sat on my cracked coffee table like a venomous snake.Cream and gold design with a scent of lilies that made my stomach turn.It was the invitation to Elisha’s coronation as Alpha, as well as Elisha and Keisha’s big day.“I’m not going, Jessie. I still have dignity,” I
Ronnie's POV For a moment, the silence in the room was so thick I could hear my own heart pounding. I stared at Elisha, searching his face for something, anything. Just anything that looked like the man I thought I loved.I waited for the apology.Waited for him to say, Ronnie, I’m sorry. This isn
Ronnie’s POV“No way I’m letting you walk out of a million-dollar desk because of that Asshole of a mate,” Jessie screamed, running down the stairs to stop me.“Language, Jessie!” I yelled.“But you worked so hard for this, Ronnie, why do you always have to dump your dreams to make sure that you’re
Ronnie’s POV“Two hours?” Jessie blurted out. “What the heck are you supposed to do with two hours? I mean, that’s not even enough time to pack your clothes and handbags.”Jessie kept on ranting. Her tone remained sharp as ever. She even looked more frustrated than I was in this weird-ass situation
