Skyler stalked up to me grinding her teeth she was fuming in anger.
Kylie, what have you done?
"I slept with someone".
Skyler sighed, and sat on the bed.
She was quiet for a while, as if she was trying to digest the news she just heard.
The room was silent for a while, save for the rapid beating of our hearts.
" Who is it?"
I was taken aback by the question.
I never expected her to be interested in Adrian.
Are you sure you want to know?
Skyler nodded.
" Look Kylie I know you, and I know you've been betrothed to Tristan from birth".
She paused and looked into my eyes.
Her brown eyes now seemed calmer, but how will she react to knowing the big news?
Skyler stood up.
Kylie you've been betrothed to Tristan from birth, but you never mated.
You haven't even tried to get close to him, but this mystery man that you met you seem to like him.
So I want to know all about him.
Kylie felt her heart slamming hardly against her ribs.
He is..... umm, he is a.....um….
Come on Kylie just spit it out, who is the mystery man that stole your heart.
Kylie fisted her hands.
Sweat was already dripping down her forehead.
He is human.
She lied.
Skyler raised a brow.
Human?
For a human to steal your heart, he must be exceptional.
Kylie nodded already feeling guilty.
" But Tristan will not be happy when he finds out".
Kylie froze.
Skyler left after saying;
" No matter what happens, I will be here for you".
Kylie doubted that.
Will Skyler really stand by her, when she finds out that she was having an affair with a vampire?
Skyler hates vampires, and Kylie knows that very well.
However, in the Morvayne Kingdom palace.
Adrian stood near the window watching the moon.
His body was there.
But his mind was with her.
Thinking about her sweet voice.
Even though werewolves and vampires are natural enemies, he didn't for a second feel the need to stay away from her.
It was quite the opposite.
Adrian's thoughts were rudely interrupted by Luke.
Luke couldn't contain his joy when he saw Adrian.
On a normal day, he isn't supposed to hug Adrian, but he just couldn't control himself.
In two long strides, he was already in front of him.
"Oh my your highness ".
He hugged Adrian feeling emotional.
I hugged Luke back, I know he was feeling emotional.
We pulled out, and I looked at the tall man in his late thirties in front of me.
Luke was a very loyal associate.
He had been with me since day one.
Especially because his parents were servants here, so he was born here.
And ever since the day I knew how to speak, Luke has been there for me.
In fact, he can pass up being my elder brother.
Luke sighed, his brown eyes mirroring the exhaustion in Adrian's.
Adrian and Luke sat in the palace cellar sipping wine.
Luke had gulped down the fourth glass.
He was angry, maybe furious.
Because he knows that the person who tried to kill Adrian was in the palace.
Only an insider would be able to pull this off.
Luke gritted his teeth in anger and said.
" We will find the person who did this, and we will make him pay".
"And when we are done with him, he will wish he was dead".
Adrian nodded in agreement, and they clicked their glasses.
" At least that's one thing we mutually agree on".
Luke could feel something on Adrian, he had been trying to keep his mouth shut.
But he just couldn't because it was all over him.
Then he gave Adrian that look, the look he gives him when he wants to know something.
Adrian noticed immediately.
" Just say it, I know you wish to say something ".
Luke chuckled softly and said;
" Who is she?"
Adrian froze.
Luke continued.
" I've known you since the day you were born, and I know that I have never seen you like this before".
Adrian chuckled.
" I don't know what you are talking about".
But he still couldn't control the smile creeping up his face.
Luke clapped his hands.
Yes, I can see it, she is all over you.
You still have your scent all over you.
Adrian laughed softly, which was almost impossible.
It was not Luke's intention to pry so he just ended the conversation with" She must be really lucky to gain your attention".
Adrian nodded thinking of Kylie.
She is indeed exceptional.
