Novel & Cerita Cordelia Roses

Instead, her hands stayed on her face, caressing and nibbing. ‘How did she get to this? She remembered insulting the man in white at the burial ceremony of her best friend. His beauty hypnotized her at first. His prominent cheekbones and chiseled jaw had trapped her eyes in them. His silver glistening eyes devoured her own eyes, making it hard to look away.’

When I was done brushing and taking my bath, I changed into a pair of black leggings and a light blue sweater when I noticed the weather was a bit chilly. I packed my curls in a bun and left my room, nearly bumping into Anya. "Oh, dearie! I was just about to come and wake you up for breakfast!" she exclaimed with a cherry tone. "Good morning, Anya," I greeted the woman. "Good morning to you too. Follow me. I'm sure you must be starving," she said and turned to leave. "You have no idea," I mumbled and followed after her. "You haven't told me your name yet," she said to me. "Oh, I apologize. I'm Rosaline, but people call me Rose," I told her. she turned around to look at me and I felt a little

All three lights danced across the ground, spiraling together toward the center crest. Clara stepped back. “That’s not good.” Aria shook her head. “No. It feels like it’s… recognizing us.” “It shouldn’t,” Clara snapped. “The goddess is missing her core. She isn’t whole. Nothing should react until ” A crack split the center of the crest. A low, resonant hum rolled through the cavern like thunder in slow motion. Aria gasped and clutched her chest. Clara’s storm flared. My gold surged so violently my vision went white around the edges.

Are you really ignoring me? Zephyr watched her blankly. Her smooth forehead, small nose, and beautiful chin flashed deep in his eyes. As he looked down, he saw her full bosom… She was like a beautiful flower under the soft, yellow light, luring him to pick her. Zephyr was charmed. He leaned in and pecked her warm lips. Cordelia was stunned. She then smiled while looking at him, pulled his neck, and kissed it. Zephyr could not hold back. He grabbed her waist directly and pressed her onto the bed.

The night breeze lifted his hair, softening his sharp features. He knelt in front of my tombstone, fingertips brushing its cold surface, eyes full of longing. "Wendy. Rose." He said my name so gently. I hadn't heard him speak like that in a long, long time. He leaned down and kissed the photo etched on my stone. "You've waited long enough, haven't you?" he murmured. "I'm coming to join you." A gentle smile curved his lips. Then, without hesitation, he drove the blade into his chest.

As I felt rejected by my mate. I have faced a lot of rejection from my parents at home and bullies in school. But this felt worse. I wanted to end it all. As I was headed for the kitchen to start the day torture and chores. Cordelia had forgotten she left the door to her room opened. Making it visible for me to see and hear them. As I walked past. I overheard My stepmother whispering to her about a wedding. Whose wedding?? I asked myself. They sounded like they were really up to no good.

Cordelia stood in the doorway. She was smaller than I remembered, or maybe I was simply older now. Her hair spilled like a grey waterfall over her shoulders, streaked with silver that shimmered when she moved. Her skin was warm bronze, lined with age but glowing with strength. Her eyes were deep golden wolf eyes that I guessed would be breathtaking if she sat under the sunlight. “My little moonflower,” she said softly. “You’ve grown.” My breath hitched. “You… remember me?” Cordelia stepped forward and cupped my cheeks in her cool palms. “Wolves never forget their own.”

She never came out of her shrine, and not everyone in the Lycaon palace gets to see her, so the description they had of her were mostly assumptions. Cordelia was younger than I’d expected. Since she was several centuries old, I’d expected a very old, toothless woman. But she wasn’t toothless. Her hair was grey and very scanty that I could see some parts of her scalp if I looked very well, but her face carried a youthfulness that didn’t go with the grey hair on her head. Her eyes were clear as day, and her skin soft and flawless. She wasn’t skinny like the books said she was. On the contrary, Cordelia was chubby, with round cheeks and fat dropping from her arms.

I breathed. "A sign of hope," Sebastian murmured, stepping closer to examine the rare bloom. "Moon Roses only appear at moments of cosmic significance. They haven't been seen since the fall of the Royal kingdoms." The silvery-blue flower continued to grow before our eyes, unfurling delicate petals that seemed to capture and reflect the light in an almost impossible way. As it reached full bloom, a subtle fragrance filled the room, clean and pure, like the first breath of air after a cleansing rain.

Osiris taps his keys loudly on the bar, trying to grab her attention, but she keeps serving other patrons. Finally, Petra holds up her hands and freezes the world around us. Everyone stops moving except the four of us and Celeste. It is a strange magic I have never seen before. She gives me a little wink just before Celeste turns to us. Her eyes are glowing bright red as she tries to break through Petra's spell. Then her eyes land on Cordelia, who is unsuccessfully trying to hide behind Osiris. "What the fuck is she doing here?" Celeste grumbles as she looks at Cordelia.
