Aiden kept to his word. My leg had healed and I could go to the fields.I turned to him. “Be quick with your breakfast. We have a place to be, remember?” I squealed, swinging my legs beneath the dining table. “I won't be going to the fields today. I have something important to do,” He replied flatly, not taking his eyes off his food.“Okay. I guess Tobias is the one taking me then.”“No.”My legs stopped swinging.A frown creased my forehead. “Then who the hell is taking me!”"Nobody.”“What do you mean nobody is accompanying me? Don't you dare tell me I'm not–”“You can go.” He added, cutting me off.I turned to face Abigail. “You heard that, he said we can go.” “Just you.”“What! Why?”"We're all going to be busy today. We have some things to discuss.”My eyebrows drew together. “So you're just going to let me go on my own?" “Hmm." He shook his head.“Are you serious?”He dropped his spoon on the table and finally lifted his head to look at me. "What…? You do not wish to go an

“How's the preparations going? Is the room ready?” “Almost,” Tobias replied. “How soon will it be ready, and what's left?”“Very soon. It's just the shelf that needs painting but I'm working on it already. Everything will be set by tomorrow.”“Good.”“Why don't you go take a look.” “Later.” We both went to sit on the sofa. “Do you think she will like it?”“Of course, she would… She would absolutely love it. And since it's Isaac who specifically told you, then I don't see any reason for you to worry.”I shook my head, tapping my index finger on my thigh.“Aiden, I think she is starting to warm up to her surroundings." “You think?”“Yes, I do. You can see that she no longer locks herself away and she's beginning to relate a little.”“Hmm.”“Just don't let Elena destroy your progression.”The hand on my thigh curled up into a tight fist.“I thought you said you would end it between you two?”“I did. I went to her place and I ended it between us.”“And how did she take it?”“Not good

“Here we are.” Aiden announced as we stopped at the front of a gate, just at the back of the Manor. He removed a key and unlocked the gate. “Are you ready, Princess?” I rolled my eyes at the pet name. “Yes, open the gate.” He pushed the gate open wide and gestured for me to enter. “After you, Princess.”The moment he opened the gate, my jaw dropped. There was a whole different world behind the Manor that I have no knowledge or whatsoever about. A maze.I walked in slowly, hands over my mouth. “This is…This is—”“Wait, this isn't the best part.” He placed his index finger and thumb in the middle of his mouth and whistled a tone loudly.“Oh. My. God.” I could not hide my amazement.Birds. Birds of different colors, sizes flew from the maze into the air. There were hundreds of them. I didn't see that coming.“So…Now you're free to talk, Princess.”“This–This is fascinating.” My gaze swept across the maze. “Does this answer your question?”I looked at him confused. “What question?”“A

“Liam, let us rest a little bit.” I groaned as we passed through the woods. “Come on, Sofie, we're almost there.”“We're not almost anywhere, Liam, we're still a long way far from home.” I whined and stopped walking. We've been walking for over two hours since we left the Midnight Pack, my feet were now killing me. Liam also stopped and turned to look at me. “I know you must be tired but I want us to get as far away as possible before the sunrise, Sofie. You can do that right?”I shook my head. His voice sounded so sad, I had no choice but to agree and we resumed walking. The forest was creepy. Everything about it. I had to gather my dress in my hand and tiptoed through a narrow road because the ground and the trees bodies were all full of thorns. We were almost at the end of the narrow road when my dress got caught by a thorn.Fucking hell!“Liam!” I called as I tried to pry my dress off but I couldn't see anything. I looked back up to see that Liam was still walking ahead and di
