Chapter 32Grim had felt his world turn blank. He would have screamed for help or at least tried to convince Rose to stay but he had lost his voice. He didn't blame her. He had treated her worse and if she saw this as payback then that was fine. His last wish was for her to at least believe his words because they were the truth. Then she came back. When he thought all hope was gone she came back and took him up. She had risked getting spotted by any vampire and getting hurt. That sacrifice from her meant a lot to him. Literally, he blacked out from the pain before they could get to the shrine.The healer walked out when she heard the commotion outside. She was an elderly woman with her silk white hair fixated with ornaments of sorcery. Bracelets and rings of different shapes and sizes adorned her hand. She was clad in a robe that showered down to her feet. She walked down and collected Grim from Rose. “Thank you for bringing him,” the healer appreciated. “Wait here, I'll take him

Chapter 34It still felt like a dream hearing Grim speak the truth. She would never have taken him to stoop so low to not only say the truth but also apologize for what he did. “He went on his knees and begged for your forgiveness?” Judy repeated just to be sure she heard right. Could you blame Rose for spicing the details? She may have exaggerated some of the details of how it had happened but now that she saw Judy's reaction it was worth it. By now they had returned to Nostville. Lord Grim had specially put Rose in charge of taking care of him. That was the only way he could think of getting her to spend more time with him on the ride back home. As you would expect, Feria wanted to skin Rose alive but the warning from Grim stopped her from making a move. All she could do was stare with evil eyes and keep making plans to finally make Rose flee. “I was just as shocked as you are. I was expecting him to leap and tear me to pieces but instead, he was asking for my forgiveness,” sh

Chapter 36Rose decided to avoid Grim for the rest of the day. It was a hard task but her creativity had led her to find new hiding spots where she could remain unfound for the next couple of hours. She knew how much of a difficult, impossible task it would be to stay away from Grim for the next couple of days. But she was more bothered about the rest of the day. Grim was worried. He sent every guard and maid he could find to search for Rose but no one laid eyes on her. They searched all the nooks and crannies of the palace but she was nowhere to be found. One thing Grim could be certain of was that she hadn't escaped. There is no way she could have left the pack without him knowing. Little did he know that she was hiding in her private favorite spot. She was hiding up in the tree that gave shade to the dry stump she usually sat on. She had stolen the key to the storage room of a guard and after gathering enough foodstuffs, she had returned the keys to him so as not to arouse susp

Chapter 38Rose was terrified. She could spot the trail of blood behind Feria and what appeared to be the corpse of one of the guards who were in the hallway. She knew she couldn't stand a chance against Feria so she immediately went to stand behind Grim, peeking at Feria. “What kind of madness is this Feria? You killed my guard and now you're threatening to kill my handmaid. Stop this at once before I teach you a lesson!” Grim thundered. If not for the fact that the woman was his fiance he would have put an end to her a long time ago. But that didn't mean he would hesitate to give her a little “scolding” to get her back on track. “If only you would listen to me and let this werewolf stop blinding you then you would realize that I'm not the bad guy here. This woman is a sorcerer and a murderer. She should be killed!” Feria retorted. Feria was more than mad walking in to see Grim standing so close to Rose. She was afraid that if she had shown up a couple of seconds later she would

Chapter 40Meanwhile, Rose was almost peeing her pants as she watched Dale go to his full form. She had seen him like this before but that didn't cancel out the fact that it was still menacing seeing him like that. How did she get here? She was in her room with Judy who was about to reveal some sort of secret. Grim barged on to tell her that the time he had given her was up. He dragged her off before she could appeal for more time. If only she had hesitated, she would have gotten the secret from Judy as well as avoided getting killed by Dale. There was nothing that Grim could do. She was sure of it. She was going to be killed, she had to. It was part of the law. Rose sighed, accepting her fate. She had known that she would only outrun death long enough without getting hooked. Her time had come. Grim looked at Dale. The latter had a smirk on his face. It looked like he had been waiting to do this for a long time m. “Don't worry, Grim. I'm going to kill two stones with one bird.
