Nina"Will you do the honour of marrying me?" I stood frozen on my feet as I stared at the ring he held out to me. Never would I have thought that our trio would end up like this.I raised my hand, ready to kick the ring off, but I remembered his words before he started this: 'Play along' was what he whispered in my ear. I put on a smile, reluctantly dropping my hand to his face as I said, "Yes, I will marry you."The crowd erupted in applause, even giving a standing ovation, and how much I wanted to roll my eyes at them—what fakers. But why wouldn't they? It was Caspian. No one could bear offending anyone in his lineage.From the corner of my eye, I could see Sage's mother panting heavily; she must have never thought that her son's burial would be an avenue for an engagement for me."Congratulations," someone shook his hand while he smiled lowly. "Your father has always been wishing for you to get married; I never thought you actually would." He took him away as he spoke, and I was a

Nina“I am watching your every move, watch your back,” the letter read, and her eyes twitched as I began shaking. I looked back to see if anyone was watching me, but I couldn't find anyone behind me. I held on to the letter tightly as my mind roamed freely in what could go wrong.What if they were actually after my life? What exactly happened after I left the country? Why was everything so dangerous? Just in that deep moment of thought, I felt a hand on me, and I shrilled.“What's wrong? Why are you so shocked?” she asked, and looking at the face, I recognized it was Helen. I breathed out a sigh of relief as I hid the paper behind me.“I guess the crowd is just too much; we should leave before we lose each other again,” I said, and she nodded, walking forward a little, but she stopped as she turned back to me boldly.“What are you hiding behind you?” she asked, and I shook my head negatively. Immediately getting defensive, I began stepping backward. “Nothing, I just feel like standing

Nina“Hello..hello..can you hear me?” My father's voice snapped me out of my thoughts as I removed the phone from my ears and placed the phone on speaker so he could hear.“What do you mean? You told me to go to Caspian that the city wasn't safe. Don't you remember?” I asked, but his voice sounded confused and afflicted as Caspian looked at me weirdly; this was everything far from what I wanted.“I don't, I didn't tell you to do that. I can never…” He said, desperation obvious in his voice, and my heart ached. What exactly was going on? Why was everyone so…? “Wait, give the phone to Caspian.”I raised a brow as I asked, “How do you know I am with him?” I asked, and all I heard was a scoff from the other end as Caspian took up the phone, putting off the speaker, and walked away to receive the call while I paced back and forth in his room.Though it was a part of my plan to come here in the first place, after that message, there was no way I could, and I sure didn't want him thinking th

Paris I opened my eyes slowly but I couldn't see anything they had my eyes covered and I couldn't see a thing but I did her their voices."You are finally awake? I was thinking I got you here for nothing. So... Where is the map?" The voice sounded thick and hoarse but I couldn't seem to recognise it from any where."Which...which map?" I asked confused at their words but my question only seemed to aggrievate them, as I heard the chair shift back harshly and he got up in anger."Don't pretend like you don't know what we are talking about the whole realm knows that you have the map don't act dumb" he hit the table beside shivered in fear.I would have really said where the map was but I had no idea what they were talking about, I was really scared for my life at this moment though I was used to such treatment from Ethan and I am supposed not to be scared but he was never ready to kill me? These ones seemed more than ready."I really don't know what you are talking about. But if it's mo

CHAPTER 1 : THE GAME STARTSAstridHILLTOWN PACKING LOTI looked down at the result in my hands and a smile broke out on my face. It was finally happening I had waited for years to have this baby and I couldn't wait to tell him the news.I smiled to myself immediately I caught sight of Calvin's car. He must have been concerned about having a child; we had waited five years, and it was finally happening. I wonder what his reaction will be.I was only a few steps from his car when I saw him. I would feel less stressed if I could call him. "Ca..!" The next sight shook me to my core: Judy was with Carter."No, it could not be..." I reassured myself as I hurriedly approached the alley I saw them enter; it could be that they caught sight of each other, or I was having hallucinations."Ca—cal—calvin!" I trembled at the sight of him making out with her in such a place and at such a time."You told me you would forgotten about her. Right? "What are you all doing here?" I gulped; there must be
