I looked closer and saw that it was a man's name. I studied a portrait of a lady. Her rose-colored lips pursed into a shy smile, her long red hair braided into a long braid, and her black eyes were very attractive. She was holding a small rose that had not yet fully blossomed. Oh, she looks like the princess in the story. "A. . . Adam..." I struggled to make out the gold letters in the lower right corner.

The beautiful woman in the portrait seemed to haunt me, her dark eyes following my every move. Unable to contain my curiosity, I pushed Ella for answers. "Please, tell me what's going on.

She was just at the part where the belle was down on her hands and knees, being taken from behind by a handsome former slave in exchange for a night's lodging, when she realized that she was being watched. She'd been

Unable to resist her curiosity, she pushed them open and stepped into what she immediately recognized as the library. The room was breathtaking. Shelves stretched from floor to ceiling, filled with books that looked ancient and worn. A soft golden glow streamed in from stained-glass windows, painting colorful patterns on the polished marble floor. At the center of the room was a massive desk cluttered with papers, a quill resting in an inkpot. Above the fireplace hung a large portrait of a woman with soft features and kind eyes. Ella’s gaze lingered on the painting. Who is she? She had seen this image before, though she couldn't remember where.

The lady sits on a chair, and looks back at me with a certain pride swirling in her green eyes, her long midnight blue hair cascading down her slim neck. The lady in the portrait is me. A gasp leaves my lips. Why am I in this portrait? “Her name is Julianne,” Carlisle’s voice sounds heavy when he speaks beside me, “She was my mate, and my late wife.” There is sadness in his sapphire eyes as he stares at the portrait.

The painting was of antique value and status. The lady in the painting had seemed more beautiful and lively as a portrait figure and she had put off the lights to be sure of the seeming luminescent blue eyes. They'd turned out to be phosphorescent and right there in the darkness, she'd witnessed little rays of trapped light burst out of from behind the portrait's rectangular frame, weakly. The baritone of a slight rumble followed immediately, also coming from behind.

charmingly smiled the woman. Maria found herself speechless as she stared into the eyes of this stunningly gorgeous woman who rivaled a supermodel with her perfect heart-shaped face, hour-glass figure, and those seductive eyes that made one unable to look away from her.

Past servants who bowed and wolves who nodded and everyone who saw me as the Luna, the victor, the woman who had everything. I walked until I reached my chambers. My beautiful chambers, with their silk and gold and the lingering scent of roses. And then I stood in front of the mirror and looked at myself. Perfect hair. Perfect face. Perfect gown, ruined now, dirtied by that cell, but still beautiful. And eyes that held something they had never held before.

Rathi took that in her hands with a smile and saw the one more painting under that. Perceiving that Rathi is greatly embarrassed because he has painted a woman naked, she decided to keep it back but she couldn't as the portrait is so prodigious to see. In that painting, a lady was lying naked on the bed in a dark room. She is facing her back and looking at the bright red moon in the window.
