Iris's pov:

A whole week had passed…

A week of watching the palace slowly transform into a place that no longer resembled itself.

White flowers carpeted the long corridors, crystal chandeliers were lit since early morning, and servants moved briskly in every corner, as if the world would end if a single minor mistake occurred today.

The wedding day of Gabriel and Katrina.

Even the air felt different.

Heavier.

Colder.

I stood before the mirror in silence while the maids pinned the final details

  • Obsession   ""A wedding night, but not for the bride."

    Iris's POVWhen I felt his lips against mine, every negative emotion I had melted away, and I found myself completely absorbed in kissing him back.The men in my village had always tried to seduce me. Every one of them looked at me with burning desire, yet all I ever felt toward them was disgust and fear.But with this handsome man before me...Seeing that intense longing in his eyes made me feel like the most beautiful woman in the world.If I were ever to lose my purity and my virginity, I wanted it to be with him.Gab cupped my hips and lifted me effortlessly, as though I weighed nothing.My legs instinctively wrapped around his waist. I parted my lips to protest after suddenly remembering that this was his wedding night, but he seized the opportunity to deepen the kiss.When that soft warmth slipped into my mouth once again, my knees nearly gave out. I would have collapsed if he hadn't been holding me.Still kissing me—sometimes passionately, sometimes with a tenderness that sooth

    Iris's pov: A whole week had passed…A week of watching the palace slowly transform into a place that no longer resembled itself.White flowers carpeted the long corridors, crystal chandeliers were lit since early morning, and servants moved briskly in every corner, as if the world would end if a single minor mistake occurred today.The wedding day of Gabriel and Katrina.Even the air felt different.Heavier.Colder.I stood before the mirror in silence while the maids pinned the final details of the bridesmaid dress around my body. It was soft, a pale silver color, with sheer sleeves and delicate, shimmering embroidery at the waist and chest.It was beautiful.So beautiful that it only made me want to cry more."It is perfect on you, Lady Iris," one of the maids said with a smile.I managed only a forced smile in return. I didn't want to look miserable. Not today. Katrina had always been kind to me. She didn't deserve these ugly feelings from me.But despite that…Every time I remem

  • Obsession   "A strange request"

    Iris's POVGabriel stayed beside me long after that young man had disappeared among the trees.As if he thought I might vanish too the moment he took his eyes off me.I tried to go back to my book, but he wouldn't even let me pretend everything was normal.His fingers traced slow circles over my hand. He watched my face, then leaned closer every few minutes, as though he needed to make sure I was still really there.Eventually, I closed the book with a quiet sigh of frustration."I'm going back inside."He looked up at me immediately."I'll come with you."I closed my eyes for a second.Of course.I stood from the bench, taking a slow breath as I tried to ignore how impossibly close he always stayed.We walked through the garden toward the palace. Gabriel remained right beside me, close enough that our arms brushed every few steps.He didn't say a word.But he didn't let me get even a single inch away from him, either.When we reached the main entrance, I stopped and turned to him."I

  • Obsession   "The annoying Gabriel"

    Iris's POVThree weeks had passed since that day.There was no real peace in the palace. Everything was in constant motion.Servants hurried through the halls, fabrics were being carried from room to room, flowers were arranged, and letters arrived, were read, discarded, and replaced by new ones.Everything revolved around one word I could no longer escape.Marriage.I heard it everywhere. In every conversation, with every step I took, even when no one actually said it out loud.Ha... well.I didn't have the energy to argue anymore.Mostly because Gabriel never gave me the chance to think in peace.He was everywhere I went.When I opened my eyes in the morning, he was sitting beside me.At noon, whenever I tried to walk around the palace, he followed right behind me.And at night, he wouldn't leave until I was actually asleep.He had even started making small decisions for me without asking.If I wanted to go to the hallway, he'd say, "I'll come with you."If I wanted to get some wate

  • Obsession   "crazy thoughts"

    Gabriel's POVShe said it.I hate you.The words wouldn't leave my head.They landed on my heart like burning embers, followed by a pain so sharp it stole the air from my lungs.Not you..."Anyone but you, Iris...""You're not allowed to hate me. You're not allowed to... damn it!"I looked at her.She was crying.Then her eyes closed.I stood frozen for only a second.She wouldn't look at me.She wouldn't speak.Only tears.Only silence.I rushed toward her."Say it again."My voice came out louder than it should have.She didn't answer.She only shook her head as her sobs grew quieter."No.""Say it."I grabbed her shoulders."You don't mean it."I shook her gently—not hard, but enough to make it obvious."You're just angry."She closed her eyes completely.And said nothing.The silence pressed against my skull."Open your eyes."She didn't."Don't close your eyes."My voice rose."Open your eyes. Now."No response.Only tears.My grip on her shoulders tightened."Look at me.""Look

  • Obsession   " familiar (2)"

    Iris's POVI don't understand what's happening anymore.The ground beneath us split open as if it were breathing, and the gray markings on my skin crawled slowly, unsettlingly, as though they were searching for a way deeper into my body instead of across it.Gabriel was still holding my hand.But his grip no longer felt reassuring.It felt like a restraint.I looked up at him. The words he'd spoken only moments ago—"Don't move."—still weighed on my chest more heavily than the suffocating air around us."Gabriel..." I whispered, but something inside me was breaking apart.The silver-haired woman smiled again, as if all she could see was the outcome she'd been waiting for."The reaction has already begun. Excellent."I couldn't take it anymore.I yanked my hand free from his grip."Let me go."He turned to me immediately, as though the movement itself was a mistake."Iris, don't do this right now."But it wasn't the voice I knew.It was sharper.Less patient.I took a step back, and the

    Several hours passed…And the night remained eerily quiet.Iris slept deeply on Gabriel’s chest, her steady breathing blending with the soft sound of the wind moving through the trees.As for him…He did not sleep.He leaned against the trunk of the giant tree, his eyes fixed on the girl sleeping i

  • Obsession   "A dazzling night "

    As soon as the magical vortex vanished…A cold breeze swept through, carrying the scent of rain and trees.Iris blinked several times in disbelief.Then her eyes slowly widened.“Waaah…”A soft gasp escaped her instinctively.The garden in front of her was unlike anything she had ever seen before.

  • Obsession   "jealousy"

    His... first wife?!Iris didn't know why her heart tightened painfully.She couldn't understand herself at that moment.Was this... jealousy?She hadn't expected that he had been married before.She swallowed hard and asked,"So... did you love her?"Gab closed his eyes for a moment, then turned ar

  • Obsession   "Late dinner"

    "Hmm... Where am I?"Iris opened her eyes to find herself somewhere else.She was in a strange place she had never visited before."What is this place?"Iris whispered softly as she looked around in confusion.The entire place was white.No sky.No visible ground.Only a thin mist stretching endles
