In the dark night a carriages moved towards an mansion in which sat the silver headed man with women wearing red gown who now was covered in an shawl "we are here, please hold on a bit more" Said Ivan whom Floria had contacted when she felt something very admist with her body, she wasn't able to control her human form fluctuating "Ivan ... I don't feel good.. I can't anymore" said Floria stuttering, he saw her dark blue skin with some scales appearing on them she was lying in his arms "done ...everything is over you don't have to go through this anymore, just a bit for now" he saw the thread he had tied on her wrist slowly turn into ash 'they met again this will not be good for Floria, he will not let him take her once again from him' "am I going to die Ivan, hun tell me?" She asked him as she could feel every cell in her body shrink and as if the threads are being pulled. Ivan saw Floria wince and struggle as her legs trying to stick together.
Ivan removed her stockings and shoes while covering her legs with his coat, he picked her up without caring to inform the coachman, he ran toward the mansion which was on minutes distance in his inhuman speed while she clutches his clothes "MARIANNE! Get the tub in my room ready with warm water now" Marianne who saw their master arrive out of nowhere ran to prepare the bath , it wasn't every time their master sounded this emergent but when he did it had their valid reasons
"Flor, Flor damn keep talking....Floria" taping her cheek to keep her awake 'damn witchy vampire has no regard to what he did he knew this would hurt her didn't he' thought Ivan to himself, when he felt Floria summoning him he had went to the motel only to find her struggling to walk . When the bath was prepared he dipped her into water and sprinkled some blue powder from his hands "don't do it Flor, don't " he said grabbing her wrists when he saw her trying to remove her clothes , he moved towards the door to see Marianne standing there . 'Marianne get her undressed and keep your lips close about anything here' ,got that?" She nodded her head obeying her master know something grave might happen if she didn't, as he was telepathically ordering her , she went to removed lady's clothes her eyes turned wide at the sight , the women had turned all blue her eye ball white with black slits with amethyst specks in them , her legs turned into a greenish tail with orange fins on length of spine ,dark long nails as if ready to tear anything apart and those translucent wings now had red lines on them as if bleeding. She removed her clothes with shaking hands ,Floria had her eyes close when she removed her clothes whe she found water turning dark .
Ivan turned when he found the door open with a loud sound "Mas...Master the lady....black water is turning black" he saw the Elve stutter due to inordinary sight 'don't let any come on this side till I say' thought Ivan to which Marianne bowed her head moving in he saw Floria wiggle, her wings flapping and she cried with a shrill shriek "Aaaa.." when her eyes started to turn gold "what's happening to me Ivan ....please help me" Floria said with slight resonate voice while standing near the edge in the tub where her front was covered by her hairs "Flor it's not that bad, a little bit more pain..... you won't have to find men anymore to share bed with" she looked at him with her enchanting gold eyes which didn't looked into , he knew the sirens had tendency to seduce which didn't really had any effect to him "really ....does that mean the man today was one who marked me?" Sitting at the edge with his back facing her he said "he is, the thread I gave you was to attract the person who had marked you" looking at him dazed she said "is it now, what should I do?" Caressing her cheek when she looked at him innocently "nothing, you just have to wait till morning and when everything settles I'll send you back home"Floria closed her eye while Ivan sat there without looking at her as a true gentleman till the water turned back to it's normal colour.
On the other hand in the Zarafeth palace a red headed man who was sucking the third maid dry , sat in an huge bathtub coloured in red with dead bodies in it "your Majesty, should I bring you women" asked a lean man standing at the good distance from the king who was going rampant for blood "Zarch go prepare potions" said the vampire coming out of tub while the man Zarch helped him with the robe , the man bowed to the vampire who was none other than their king LIAM ATKINSON ,Who was a ruthless pureblooded vampire. Zarch who was vampire,a loyal servant had been working here since the last two generations of the king to know well what the king was , the former king was an child of strong bloodline of puribloods and a dark witch who then had married the women was a mermaid who had been kept as human but then once entered in the royals the death was inevitable.
Zarch entered the room where no one else other than king enter, staying with the last king Zarch had learned well enough about spells. " Your Majesty the things you asked for are ready" the tall red haired vampire entered the room waving his hands, dismissing Zarch to leave him alone. A century he had been waiting for his little rabit, now that he got her there was no going back. Drawing a circle, performing the ritual with the potion he finally found her "just a few more days Floria Saipon will be mine again" Liam was a selfish vampire who kept his things and people,to him he never liked to share . The day the blond women entered in his life she was his,only his to love to claim , he would crunch any pest fluttering around her.
Sitting on a chair he said "Zarch invite Mr.Oscar Saipon for the dealings of the royal palace tomorrow" Oscar Saipon was reputed a reputed man know for his business skills across, even though the man was told to be human but there was something off with that as a mere human couldn't ever reach such hypes of business sector with such cunning species who would eat them alive.
"Yes your Majesty"
In the morning half past three, a carriage stood infront of Saipon mansion , Ivan who stood holding Floria by her shoulder stepped inside where the butler had opened the door. After helping Floria to her room Ivan with Mr and Mrs. Saipon sat in tea room "Did everything went accordingly? She wouldn't have to deal with this again , does she?" Asked concerned Lily to Ivan "It did , she will not be dealing with this again" both the couple held grave expression on their faces "She has been through a lot Ivan since Alice has left her, we can't see her like this. Who is he?" Ivan was an Elve with uncopabale powers and visions but there were rules an Elve was bound to follow " I can't tell you what you want Oscar, sometimes there are things that you and I can't change, Floria after meeting him again her heart it will not be easy to separate them . It's the body which forgets but the soul traces it's way back to the destined place" Oscar and Lily who were worried for their daughter, they are living in the society where the unmarried woman are shunned their daughter who was almost of twenty for the people she will have to get married to keep her safe from the people's words.
"Will we be able to find other hybrids for her, anyone capable?" To which Ivan shaked his head thoughtfully while Oscar said "Many hybrids don't survive while which does they keep themselves away from the common creatures, it will be hard" the lines on the witches forehead increased when they both went stunned with what Ivan said " Mr. Sapion please allow me to woo yoyr daughter, I might not be able to give her family but I'll keep her happy and protect her with everything in me"
Oscar went quite for a few seconds while Lily shared look with Ivan trying to see the sincerity. Elves were indeed powerful but not all of them were good but then they have know this one for long yet not enough. "I think we should leave it on Flor on what to say upon this" said Lily to which both the men agreed.
The next morning in the royal assembly everyone bowed their head as the King Liam entered , "long live the king, your majesty" the man continued when Liam gestured him to "Ruffles at the service ,the King of the Mornareth wants to hold an assembly together for the discussion about the recent event" said the dwarf man with grey and mustache, who now had his hat under his arm with all due respect to the king. " that's a good idea Scot,but for now let's see who has had their full to pull out such task" said Liam with the charming smile "Minister Lee , herd about the dispute in Begies. Seems it's the time for you to take break, why not let you rest while we see about the problems of the people . "Prince Rory will be check the issue in the Begies and pay visit Mr. Lee's residence, sure he would love it"
The man ran straight on his knees " pl-please your Majesty forgive I shall mend my mistakes .... your..." the very next second the man's head was served from his body, where Liam stood with blood dripping off his sword "Prince Rory and Warren you both shall look after the dispute in the Begies and as well search out the Lee mansion is handled to you" Rory was an merman with vampire traits who appeared handsome,smart and playful as well as tall as Warren, he had lush brown hairs scattered hiding his hazel greenish eyes. Rory and Warren bowed their heads "yes your Majesty" The court was then dismissed after heading with some more tribal matters about the kingdom with punishing a man to be hanged for trying to rob royal palace.
While in Saipon mansion where everyone sat on the dining table having their breakfast where Floria appeared much well than yesterday while Lily was reciting the mischievous done by her childrens "...telling how Jace opened the fence of sheepcote and how all the sheeps scattered , Jace was then punished of a week without sweets" every laughed heartily at the memories told by Mrs. Saipon. Lillian after yesterday noon event was at ease by the presence of the people who cared about her, she had tried to open the box with spell by nothing happened.
"Lillian dear take some more, Ethan give her some more omelet and veggies " said Lily pushing food in everyone's plate until they are full. Oscar shook his head with an smile at his wife being an food pusher.
"Lillian dear the house registration shall be transferred on your name, I have some work in Derefield so you and Jace will be accompanying me after your studies " said Oscar to which Lillian and Jace nodded "yes dad".
As usual both the childrens were been taught by Ethan while Floria in her room picking out all the registers of the library to take them along with her while Lily and Oscar sat in the gardens where maids made their way out giving space to the couple "Oscar what do you think Flor will give him a chance?" Asked the women who was now sitting with her husband's arm engulfing her "its upon her, they have known each other for years now it doesn't actually seems that bad, knowing how situation were,it was indeed going to be hard for her to find a suitor but then it doesn't matter even if she doesn't wants to extend the family"
"But you know how people treat an unmanned women, don't you"
"Do not worry about it Lily we will handle everything just like we have been" being an witch the last thing Lily had expected to have a family of her own, often witches ended being burned or killed in the land designated for other creatures but then it wasn't like they were speared in the land of Witches as well. Alice came like a light which left her with endless happiness in her life.
"Hmmm, childrens grow fast don't they Oscar it feels like just yesterday Flor was small and I was holding Jace in my womb "
"Indeed,they grow fast . There is nothing to worry about anymore ,now that the issue of soul mark has been sorted and we can get Lillian and Jace married in coming future, with the way boy looks at her I worry that someday he might run away with her out of impatience" they both laughed at the thought.
Here in the palace where Liam stood in the cottage of the big room of royal quarters with blood wine in his hand while other rested on the railing "looks like you have to you'll have to take a visit to place ,the case is getting patch, the letters and money were found in the mansion of Lee's. How did you know the man was involved in the case" said an burnette hair man a few inches shorter than Liam who was none other than his younger brother Rory. "Humans, his heart beat gave away when the discussion about the case was taken up, but this wasn't the one who had planned it was someone else bidding the minister as the pawn to divert the case" replied Liam nonchalantly "they thought they could kill you when out of your power, how silly of them" Liam chuckled "It would be a folly to die when I just have found my life lively again" Rory turned towards his brother with his eyes as wide as balls "you did oh my, what is her name ? Does she looks the same? Did she recognize you?" Twitching his lips Liam walked away "hey hey where are you going to?" He left the crow shouting to himself, Moving towards his room he ordered the servent "set up the breakfast table "
" your Majesty " the man obliged with a deep bow " Milord Mr. Davies wants to meet you"
"Invite him for the breakfast " the man left with a bow.
It wasn't every Liam had meals, since he had lost his loved ones Liam never had his meals , he only used servents to have fresh blood but the strangest thing for servents that king usually never sept with women but if did they would end up being killed.
In the dining room sat Liam ,Rory who was enjoying his food and Warren "Milord, case demands your presence at the Lee's mansion they seems to have involved with witches but its still isn't clear who is behind" said Warren with his strain posture, not bothered to reply Liam listned while chewing his food "brother don't tell me you aren't gonna bring sister in law to the palace" a smirk appeared on his face, sipping blood from the glass he said "letting the little bunny enjoy freedom for some more days. Warren hasn't it been long since ball was held, announce the ball in this week and especially Mr. Oscar Saipon shall be present with his family as he now work for the castle , it would be a shame if he doesn't comes right. " Warren didn't had to be told that the king might have took his interest in the family. As far he knew the debauchery of the king wasn't something fancy it was rather strange as the king refused to keep any concubines rather preferred to kill the ones he slept with "That shall be done Milord". Having their breakfast Rory took his leave to the empirical council for the paperwork of the current case they had under them while Warren had to put the word about the preparation of the upcoming ball.
In the Saipon mansion where Floria who was ruffling the register of library found an diary , flipping pages she found something written in it which read as
'Dear Flora,
This is your mother Alice I hope you find the letter good, if you're reading it means I have gone a long but it feels assuring leaving you in the hands of Lily. Dear in this world you were the most important thing for me, I don't regret a single second of my life from meeting Lily to settling with your father it was all worth it . Don't ever leave anything because of who you are, what you are is a gift which you will have to cherish, to come to love it , Floria there might be times when you hate things but Looking at the brighter side of the life is all what is needed. So, live your life well for your mother .
Your dear mother
Alice.'
Tears slipped her eyes reading her mother, she knew about the marking of her soul, everything that would happen didn't she. She had never felt hurt, shame until she had killed Willam out of the dire situation of poison spread,William was a cheerful man..a human, she had taken liking towards to give a change to them getting engaged, married to be doted on until William died the guilt burdening on her shoulders of killing an innocent never let her even think of engaging with someone. Closing the diary she moved for the library in an dark green gown with her bag hung on her shoulder.
In library Ivan stood at the counter holding a book in his hand while his eyes constantly moved back to the entrance. He has been thinking about how to ask Floria out, know what happened back with William she still holds herself responsible for it , it was going to be tough but he will have to take step before the Vampire would. A few block of library were full with children and a few with adults "welcome and a very good morning Miss. Wells how may I help you" Ivan asked the vampiress who stood a good inches shorter than him "A very good morning Mr. Westwood, I actually came here to return this book. You indeed have a good test in books." She said coyly tugging her hair behind her ear "your flattering me" he replied politely, turning his head toward door when he heard footsteps "Good morning Miss Floria"
As Floria entered the door she saw the vampiress greet her "good morning Miss.Wells , pleasant to have you here" but the women hushed while grabbing both her hands 'does this damn bitch had to come when I was just going to ask Ivan to be my date for the ball' Floria's smile widened at the vampiress thought , these creatureswhere such a funnyone who always liked to claim everything and as far as the thought is about Ivan she should knowbetter what kind of women he would choose "Ivan why don't you show the lady some more books as she seems to like the books you pick, do you mind Milady" Ivan knew where this was going to and he would sure to drag Flor with him "No not at all" the vampiress replied blushing. As they went through the shelves Ivan who purposely took the one closest to the one where Flor was listing the books "So Mr. Westwood , wonder do you like parties and balls?" Asked the women " why do ask Milady?" He asked to conform his prediction " that I haven't seen you most at such place makes me wonder if you like to less crowded places" to which he replied "No its nothing like that, crowd shall be an important aspect for a sculpture like myself" spending a long time on this place he had changed his occupation after Melanie's death, waiting for her to appear again. The vampiress took deep breath before busting up " So would you perhaps like to be my date in the upcoming ball this week" Ivan's smile disappeared while Floria's face turned towards them in curiosity about Ivan's answer would be "pardon me Milady but since you see that I have been occupied by Miss.Floria at the time for ball,hope you don't mind" He dares to drag her with him when she had no plans for any ball. Even though Ivan seemed playful one but was quite straight with his words. unlike with her at the time playing his word riddles. "No that's absolutely fine maybe next time is it" to which he replied to the vampiress who had subtle sour expression "sure Milady" handling the vampiress by choosing her a book which she gingerly took taking her leave while Ivan made his way to where Floria was , snatching the book from her "you dare to drag me in with you while knowing I'm not anywhere intrested in the ball thing" she complained when she saw him looking at her his graze felt different unlike usual playful ones "And what about you trying to stick me with the vampires do you think I'll go along with it.... Flor I know you aren't ready yet but I want you to give it a chance ,you shouldn't leave anything in life thus I like a very gentleman ask you to be my date till the ball and if you still say no then I'll not utter a single word of objection to it" Ivan busted without giving her time to turn him down. 'well that was a wild confession but would it be bad to give it a thought knowing she had no future with any creature, it shouldn't be right' " I don't want to disappoint you Ivan but you are right I shouldn't leave out anything in life , so let's call it a deal till the ball" Ivan grinned "lets go" Ivan wanted to demolish any particular memory of the last life to become a hindrance for her to accept him. "Where? " she asked as its wasn't they wandered around unprofessionally " you'll know, come. Saleen the library is to you for now" " yes sir"
With that they got into carriage, Ivan has always been kind to her from since she met her thus she saw no reason to deny him but the fact that she somewhere still felt her heart as empty as void, she had felt something spark into her with the unknown man she had met, would he had died would they meet again? Who was he actually? What happened in her last life? Who was she? Such questions in the past had been eaten her but since she had decided to move forward without looking back, engrossing herself in library books and her family. "Ivan where are we going?" She asked keeping her thoughts at bay "Begies, to the mansion I have something for you" she nodded her head while again looking out. Ivan was an gentleman who knew not to cross his limits unlike those selfish creatures of night. It was only few years back when she and her father had helped the group of Elves , he had given them the mansion in the Begies where they were now known for their exclusive craving art. Elves being part of fairyland Floria had always felt them as their own that they reminded her of her mother.
"Jace will it be alright ?" asked Lillian who now sat in the carriage after completing their daily schedule,heading to the empirical council with Jace while Mr.Oscar sat in another carriage with Mr. Jason, a vampire who handled the arrangement of the raw material and maintained them till they reached in the hands of Saipon's. "What?" He asked playing with her hair with his right hand while he sat with his leg folded on another. " I mean witches going in the council especially when there is ambush of witches" sighing he pulled the little squirrel near him, who sat at with a person's distance between them looking at him innocently urging him to keep her all for just himself to look at "what do you think sweet that there aren't any witches in council?" Her eyebrows frowned "there are?" He chuckled at her taking her had in his "there are, and the council know it too its just that one always has to watch their backs regardless of what cast they are off so you don't disclose it got it , no one would charge you unless found something against. Thus make sure to keep away from using spells ,ok" Lillian like an obedient one agreed, having no experience of how royal things went as her mother had always coped her in their house. "Lillian there are lots of things that you need to be aware of, especially the people out there ...neve trust them"he said looking into her eyes with a serious expression "hmm" lighting the mood he asked her "have you seen the wonderland" her eyes shined as she shook her head while Jace have her enchanting smile patting her head.
When the carriage halted in front of a huge white painted building with lots of floor and quarters, enough for one to be lost if came for the first time, with galloping sound of horses feets . Lillian and Jace followed behind Mr. Oscar and Jason until they took a turn to left entering in the quarter boarded as 'Trade record' while they went straight climbing one more floor to stand in front of board 'land registry' where chatter of people can be heard loud,lots of people moved back and forth. Jace who was standing ahead of Lillian looked back at her to ensure if she was alright, he had barely seen her stand in crowd which gave him slight indication that she would feel uneasy and just as he presumed he saw her subtly move back when he grasped her hand not wanting her to get lost as it was inevitable for a person stepping for the first time in council to get lost. "Hold on tight Lillian?" He said as he looked at her staring at him dazed. "I ,I am sorry I was just.." " shuu..is fine I got your back sweetheart" he said in low voice winking at her "Mr. Saipon, what a pleasant day how may I help you"
Lillian saw a man slightly short whose stomach was bloated as balloon say to Jace "Its my pleasure to be in your company Mr. Hall. This is my fiancee Lady Cameal, we were here to shift the registration of the house on her name according to the will" her heart skipped several beats on his words even though she knew this for caution she couldn't help but blush at his words, the man and Lillian shared a polite bow at each other "please come with me" they went towards the room which was further divided into more rooms where they sat on the chair in one of the rooms where there were little less people compared to other ones "Miss may I know who had the registry name on the land documents?" The man asked Lillian while she looked at Jace who blinked his eyes telling her to continue "My mother, Clarabelle Cameal was the one who holds the registry of the house....she is missing since 3 weeks now" she felt the lump rise in her throat "my condolences but have you registered the complaint" looking at Lillian who was finding hard to reply Jace continued "we did it 3 days after she hadn't returned back till now" the man nodded his head "please fill the form here so that the further process can be continued" Lillian who filled the information consisting her name,background, time period since they have been living in Ironvale . "Thank Miss and Mr. Saipon , for the further process please pay a visit after a week" murmuring a thank you they got up from their place to head back as they heard people call out "long live the second Prince " everyone gather together to the corner in which they stood in the front when she felt the hazel green eyes staring at her, 'it wasn't good,did they found about her being a witch? Sweat broke through her forehead whe she felt the assuring hand on her shoulder calming her which was Jace. Jace who saw the warning graze of the prince who was dressed most elitly in the council with his rich velvet mantel trailing slightly on the ground, on Lillian who broke down in sweat, he placed his hand on her shoulder to deprive any vail thought about his woman.
Rory who had came here to get the record of the properties registered on the minister's name in person as the case has been allotted to him and he loved to handle his own things rather than getting someone to do it. The women just now she felt somewhat familiar her eyes, hairs reminded him of someone. He saw the ice blue eye man put his hand on her shoulder to which her loud beating heart slowed, Saipon..Jace Sapion , he had met him a few times with his father. He was quiet sharper to his age which he wondered if he was a witch and this woman seems to hold his interest, the way he holded her. He moved toward the desk while everyone went on with their work. Jace moved out with Lillian while Rory went toward the desk,the paper caught his eyes which had something written on it, it wasn't the information but the handwriting no commener was taught Spencerian calligraphy skill this was something only royals were taught in which each of the dynasty had their own traces like the women had highlighted þ in her write. "Mr. Hall may I know who was the lady and why was she here " the bloated stomach man replied with a deep bow towards the royality "Milord the lady had come here for transferring the land registry on her name as her mother is told to be missing since a three weeks now " the man who now shivered know how unpredictable the prince can be "get me all of the registration on Minister's Lee's name and even the transferred ones within half hour. "Right away Milord please take a seat" but Rory declined with the mesmerizing smile "no I'll be back till then I need things ready" he then disappeared with the within seconds .
Lillian who now walked with her hand held in Jace's towards the wonderland "Jace look at that its wheel of fortune let's play please" he grinned at his little Squirrel who was now jumping in excitement "ok ok let's go" paying a brown coin losing two rounds finally winning a wooden couple "yeah Jace we won we won" she said hugging him broadening his smile . Finally after such long time she was smiling, her eyes shinning with innocence and joy ,such a baby ..all his to protect and care for. Playing around and eating food they moved to their carriage "Lillian get in the carriage I'll be back" he said kissing her forehead as he felt her grip his sleeve "be good " locking the carriage door he moved to the coachman "Sam, don't let her out and stay with her . A single strand missing and I'll cut you with my very good hands" the lean man bowed ,it was very rare of Jace to behave strict with servants . He looked down and "yes sire". With that Jace moved towards the alleyway 'what a pain in ass they came smelling her till here' he saw a few of people following them since they came from council, moving he saw bunch of vampire who had hidden their face with colth then one of the vampire said "what is a boy doing here Marck, didn't you said none would come here anyway let's first deal with this kid then we can get the little bitch...ahhh what the fuck?" The vampire cursed as all of them fell on their knee's, he couldn't let the people call his sweetheart with names , now did he "what a piece of shits not even worth lifting my hand" said Jace with his cold blooded voice while his eyes dark with rage "Galid that's not any human, what the fuck is that, kill h....?" The vampire fell flat without completing his words, making other panic to how a mere human could do such thing "what nasty creature I wonder my ears would bleed if I hear you anymore,let me be bit merciful given you a quick death" other four vampires had a terrified look "no...no please leave us no" Jace killed all except for the one called Marck, grabbing his hairs looking into his eyes he asked "why are you here ?why do you want to kill her" the man's eyes were wide as he spoke in robotic voice "we were told to bring the witch alive with the box" 'box why does these leaches wanted it' "who told you?" Before he could answer the vampire started coughing blood with white foam "he's poisoned, damn it" through the vampire he ran towards the carriage where he saw dead bodies were lying while the carriage was empty with its door open "Lillian, fuck Sam where is Lillian?" She couldn't have ran away did she ?shouting at the coachman he turned around where the coachman pointed his finger ,he saw the Prince standing with an bloody crystal sword 'A Mer-vampire' "Jace" he saw Lillian , looking scared her arm hurt run towards him form behind him which he spread his arms wide for "didn't I told you to stay in the carriage why do you always have to oppose me, you got me scared Lilli" he said tightening his grip around her when he heard the Prince "such bunnies should be lock in cage Mr. Jace or someone might eat them up" he saw the Prince laugh "A very good Noon to the Price Rory, thank you but its matter of time my fiancee shall be able to protect herself well" he have a slight bow to the Prince while Lillian standing behind him "Mr.Jace seems pretty confident, I'm sure with the way the lady's pet had tagged to her" 'A raven ,crap but hadn't it flown away a long time ago' "lady here loves pets she has her very own stable too"
Interesting a woman with royal teachings running stable with such skittish self somethingwas off, young Sapion sure came up with an quite wit to stray the conversation . " I see women's do love animals a lot" He said with mischievous smile as ever while his one hand in pocket "please allow us Milord" asked Jace to which he nodded while as they turned he left saying "the barrier was pretty cool though but you bunny had long legs to find you around "he had made sure to place a barrier with his witchcraft so no one would be able to enter. Sensing the disappearance of the vampire he pulled Lillian into carriage "Jace I....I am sorry" but he kept pulling her without listening , shoving her inside he followed her by 'was he angry?'"what were you thinking Lillian? Getting out when I had told you not to, is it so hard to comply what I say" he cornered her with dangerous look on his face gone was the soft and playful Jace.
"I ..I heard you calling me....they wanted to kill me" she was worried if he would leave her at such unknown places but now looking at the blood stain on his shirt drove her scared self more insane . His aloof eyes were now scaring her "damn it!" She was scared, scared of him. He crushing hitting the wall behind her making her flinch closing her eyes out of fear. "Lillian look at me ..I would never hurt you no matter what . Trust me for now I promise you don't have to fear anything, least me" she did she wanted too "hmm" she looked tired "come here" he asked patting his lap, he pulled her when he saw her hesitating "Jace.." but he hushed her tucking her loose strand "did the Prince saved you?" He asked while looking at her injured arm just to roll her sleeve up 'fuck those bastards had audacity to hurt her', he could feelher heart beating loudly" he did, when I came out when I heard your voice but you weren't there. Where did you went Jace?" She asked him as he cleaned the black blood around the wound, he looked at her staring at him with her doe eyes, he couldn't let her see his monstrous side "to get you these...Sam get the carriage back to the mansion" he said showing a beautiful pair of bluish translucent gloves "they are gorgeous" she said taking them in her hands while Jace continued to pamper her like a child until she fell asleep on his chest.
'always scares me my squirrel, you aren't something I would afford to lose'
