Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Impact of Her (ALL SEASONS): Kabanata 101 - Kabanata 110

“This shows exactly my point,” Bethilda remarked as she pointed at me. She turned back to Mother and James and asked, “Is this what you call exemplary manners?” I instantly stepped right in front of her, face to face. My distance caught her by surprise and Bethilda stepped back right away. I put my hands behind my back and lowered my voice as I said, “And who are you to call us animals? Who are you to say that my parents failed to raise us properly? And who are you to disrespect them in their own castle and kingdom?” Her eyes widened as she grew terrified with my tone and close distance towards her. She tried to avoid my glare but she knew she couldn’t. “Robert, please,” James cautiously called me as he tried to calm me down. “You have no right to stop me now, James,” I replied without removing my stare from Bethilda. “This hog is a relative but she is also a mere guest. She does not have the right to scream and demean the both of you in your own household,” I continued. Bethilda

We instantly returned to our true form as our feet settled on the soft grass. I looked around us and there was nothing but the light from the moon above us. The moon has been abundant with her light tonight and I was grateful for that. As I finished admiring the moon’s beauty, I realised that Laura was still gripping onto me. “Laura?” I looked to her to check on her. Her grip on my clothes was too tight to pull away. She hid her face onto my chest as her eyes remained closed. “Laura, you can open your eyes now. We’re here,” I whispered. Her shoulders relaxed as she slowly opened her eyes. Her grip on me loosened. Her eyes shifted from scared to amazed. She took a few steps forward and looked around. “Is this real?” she asked whilst I prepared the picnic. “Are we really here?” I let out a chuckle. “I don’t understand why you can’t believe what you’re already seeing,” I said as I spread the blanket onto the grass and settled the food on it next. She then turned and sat across fr

I closed my eyes as I gave myself a moment to prepare. I took a deep breath and slowly faced him. ‘That was a good way to greet someone who has been your family for years,’ I thought to myself. I asked, “Is that your new manner of greeting a long-time friend and confidant, Benjamin?” With a few steps forward, I continued, “Is that how you treat your brother now?” Gonzalo scoffed as he raised a brow at me. “Brother? Brother?! You call yourself my brother after you betrayed me?!” he ranted even more as he walked towards me. Gonzalo kept him in arms’ reach as he followed behind Benjamin. “You took everything from me! You are the reason why she rejected me!” Gonzalo’s eyes widened as he heard Benjamin’s complaints. It just gave further confirmation as to what Gonzalo had already suspected: that I met a woman in the Mortal Realm and she was the reason for my frequent visits. From utter shock, Gonzalo slowly shifted to furious. I sighed and replied, “Benjamin, I never did anything to i

I turned my head and there stood Laura. She wore a white top with long, loosened sleeves. She paired it with a long brown skirt but kept her working boots. Her long, dark brown wavy curls hung freely down her shoulders. This was her. This was Laura. I immediately walked towards her as I stared at her entire being. My grin grew wider as I was unable to contain my joy. “You look radiant, Laura. As you always do,” I complimented her. I leaned in to kiss her on her lips but she softly pushed me away. “Robert, please,” Laura murmured as she looked around in a panic. “People can see us.” I stepped back with a smirk and a raised brow. “I didn’t know that you care so much about what other people will think. Why does it matter if they see?” I asked. Laura sighed as she stepped closer to me. “I think it is only proper that you understand this,” she started, “But unbeknownst to you, you are highly respected here. Ever since you made your presence known in Bullingar, the people here hold you

A long while has passed and I was still stuck in Lord Cyrus’ office. I read each document meticulously to avoid complications in the future. I tried to keep my focus here. But something inside of me was being difficult. My mind kept thinking of Laura. I was increasingly uneasy about being away from her. And I shouldn’t be feeling that way because she was accompanied by two servants and Wonder as well. “That would be all for Wonder’s release,” Lord Cyrus said as he sat across from me. He rummaged through everything and anything in his table. He continued, “All that is left is your signature and everything is finished.” His words were muffled to my ears as I continued to be restless. The quill was in my hand. It was only a few inches away from where I should sign. But I couldn’t move. Instead, my eyes were at the door as I hoped for her to enter. “Is something the matter, Your Highness?” Lord Cyrus asked as he tried to get my attention. I returned to him, my brows knitted together.
