Semua Bab Surrogate Luna For The Devilish Lycan King : Bab 81 - Bab 90

It was a cold night. A really cold night. Lillith felt like she was going to freeze. But that didn't stop her from walking. She drew the cloak around her body. Tight enough to shield her from the cold night. Her feet moved through cold, wet grass and she tripped a few times before getting to the gates behind the servant's quarters. Everyone was still in the main palace grounds so there was no one to find her when she went missing. She pulled the iron wrought gates open and slipped out before breaking into a sprint. The air was filled with acrid smoke and the smell of blood and dead bodies. She heard a loud cry and froze on the spot as her heart thumped against her chest. The cry had been so loud that she felt it was close to her. A wave of crippling fear overcame her, knocking the wind out of her body. She stabbed herself behind a tree, hiding from nothing in particular. Howls and growls permeated the air and due to her sharp hearing, she was more afraid than she th

Lillith turned on her feet and walked back home. Why had he gotten so mad over something as little as her saying the truth? Maybe he hadn't changed so much after all. Maybe he had only stopped mistreating her physically and had gone ahead to use his words instead. Sighing, she pushed forward, walking back into the palace. This time, she went through the gates, surprising the guards. They didn't ask her anything but she could see the questions in their eyes. She walked past the gates and went into the palace. The first person she saw was Cali and she looked quite panicked. Rushing to Lillith, she grabbed her by the arm. "Where have you been? I've searched around for you!" "I went for a walk," Lillith said with less enthusiasm. She wasn't interested in anything Cali had to say. "A walk? During a war? What if you got attacked? Wounded or kidnapped? What would I have told Leon?" "He knows," Lillith said and began to walk towards the steps. Cali blanched and

Lillith woke up feeling quite tired but the cries from Henry had her sitting up. She had a splitting headache and was hit by a wave of dizziness before she regained herself and picked up. Cali came in a few moments later. Apparently, they had returned back to their room yesterday after the maids had cleaned it up. And after Cali had yelled at Lilith, for leaving without telling her and endangering her own life. They hadn't gotten into an argument but Cali had been really mad at her for just leaving. She had a tray of hot soup and a cold glass of water. "How's your head?" Cali asked as she set the tray on the table. Lillith winced at the sound of her voice. "Talking isn't something I want to do right now. You also shouldn't talk. Too much light and noise intensifies it," "Shit," Cali muttered. "I'm glad I came with this soup and lemon water. It'll help with the headache," Soon, she was done feeding Henry. Cali took him from her hand and set him in his cot b

Lillith was taking a walk through the gallery when Melissa came into the room. The unsuspecting nursing mother didn't hear her come in as she was engrossed in staring at the paintings and sculptures before her but with a throat clearing, she raised her head to see Melissa standing at the other side of the room. Lillith's face fell immediately. Something about Melissa made her feel uneasy but she threw that thought to the back of her head and tipped her chin to the air. "Nice paintings, right," Melissa said as she walked into the room. Lillith nodded at her but she ignored her. She was trying to control herself from bursting into flames so she faced the paintings and tried to ignore the blond haired woman as much as possible. "Van Gogh, Leonardo Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Donatello, Picasso. All very remarkable artists who made their names history with their works," Melissa said and traced her fingers over the paintings. She touched the sculptures and smiled. "I have

Melissa was boiling with anger. She heard everything they had talked about and was aware of Leon's knowledge of her being in the room at that moment. She kicked the chair nearest to her and it flew across the room before hitting the wall with a great impact and splitting into two. She fell into another seat and groaned in anger. She was here for a reason and somehow, she had missed the point of it all because of Leon. She had fallen in love with him even after being aware of the fact that it wasn't the right thing to do but she couldn't help herself. Leon was practically the man of her dreams. He was handsome, influential and fearless and if she hadn't been sent to poison him, things would have been smoother. She hated that they had the same goals of avenging the death of his parents. That was what had first drawn her to him. The fact that they had a common goal. She believed there was a possibility of them falling in love and she had fostered those feelings righ
