Chapter71

Liana's POV I stared at the ceiling above me, my eyes counting the beams that held the place up. I wasn't sure the exact moment I stared counting, but I'd counted over ten thousand beams, and I wasn't exaggerating. The lights weren't left out either. I had counted how many times the lights had flickered on and off, and the interval between them too. Yes, I knew I sounded crazy, but I wasn't. There was a reason I was in a normal hospital and not a psych ward. I was simply bored, and it was killing me. I sighed, before rolling over to the side of the bed. One would think that with the number of days I'd spent in the hospital, I would be used to it by now. I wasn't. In fact, for some strange reason, today was the loveliest I'd felt and even though I didn't want to admit it, I knew the reason why, deep down inside me. Kieran was nowhere to be found. When he'd started spending his days here, I'd refused. Why? I was mad at him. I'd been furious when he showed up here, but some

Chapter 72

Liana's POV I should have taken the moving shadow as a bad sign. It would have been the best option, and probably the most sensible thing to do, but somehow, I just didn't see myself doing that. Every since the shadow started popping up mysteriously, it always made me alert. Alert in the sense that, I knew the exact moment it arrived, and most times, I knew when it would leave too. I'd lost count of the number of times I'd wanted to tell Kieran about it, but I never brought myself to actually do it. I always told myself that telling him would only make him worry, and I didn't want that. It was already bad enough that he was stressed out about my condition, and with the recent emergency with Irene, I didn't want to pile up more problems for him, so I decided to keep quiet. It sounded like such a good and wise decision when I'd made it, but right now, I was about to regret it. And badly too. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't go to bed. I'd pressed my eyes shut over and over

Chapter 73

Kieran's POV The drive home was quiet, but my mind was not. No matter how hard I tried, my mind kept wandering back to Liana. Our conversation from earlier today raced through my mind, and I found myself smiling, widely too. When I'd rushed back to the palace for the so called emergency, it wasn't anything I'd expected, but even that wasn't as shocked as what I learned when I got back to the hospital. Upon my arrival, I'd snuck up on Liana admiring a family. From her stance and how enthralled she was at their presence, it was clear she wanted what they had; a family. I wouldn't say I blamed her, judging from what I knew about her, her past wasn't exactly rosy, and only made sense that she wanted to experience what she'd missed out on. “I'm going to make sure I fulfill your dreams of becoming a mother.” My own words echoed in my ears. “I won't rest until I do so.” Yes, it had a double meaning, and even though it brought a cheeky smile to my lips, it didn't mean I was joking. I m

Chapter 74

Kieran's POV I didn't want to believe it. I couldn't. When I'd walked into Liana's hospital ward, Irene was the last person I expected to see. On top of that, I had to walk in on her trying to strangle Liana too. It was too much for me, that I couldn't deny, but I never saw the strange twist that happened in the end. Irene had been acting like a maniac when I caught her. She went on rambling about how much she loved me and all of that, and I didn't dare indulge her. Maybe if I had known just what she had up her sleeve, I would have after differently. Irene had barely just finished calling herself a maniac when she pulled out a dagger from her pocket. She didn't even give anyone time to react as she stabbed herself with the knife. Perhaps if she had just stabbed herself once, we could have been able to figure out a way to help her, but she didn't. Instead, she stabbed herself over and over again, even as she was crumpled on the floor. I'd seen a lot of dead bodies, but none of t

Chapter 75

Liana's POV When Kieran had told me to get dressed, I knew he had something up his sleeve, but I didn't know what it was. It was only natural that I would agree when he insisted, but a small part of me almost didn't. I was this close to turning him down, no matter what it took. I'd almost yelled at him even, to let me be, because I really wasn't in the mood. Looking back now, I'm glad I hadn't done any of that. I'd tried to pry it out of him during the drive too, but it was futile. He didn't budge, neither did he give me even so much as the tiniest hint. He'd refused to tell me where we were headed. “You'll see,” was all he said. “and you'll love it too.”He didn't lie. The view was beautiful, and maybe I might be overly excited, but I didn't mind sleeping and waking up to this view everyday. Maybe if I was persuasive enough, I could even convince Kieran to build a mini house for me here, like a vacation spot. Those were the thoughts that ran through my mind, until he popped t

Chapter 76

Kieran's POV I flipped through the pages of the many documents scattered in front of me, my eyes scanning through everything and nothing at once. I wasn't sure I'd made a lot of progress, but right now, I couldn't even afford to stop. Not with all the unfinished projects I had left. These ones weren't all that important, but I was trying to clear up space in my schedule, and see if I could do more work in lesser time. I'd started about an hour ago, and I wasn't sure I would be still be standing by the next hour. A sigh pushed past my lips as I pressed one of the files closed. I was done with that, and jumped right into the next one. Although the current one was heavier than the last, there was no way I could put it off anymore. I'd been doing that for a while now. It was in times like this, I wished I had an assistant, but trust my trust issues to get in the way. I never really believed that anyone could do the amount of work I could do, and the way I wanted it. I was a perfectio

Chapter 77

Liana's POV “Isn't it a little too tight?” I groaned as Serena fiddled with the loops behind my dress. I would have done them myself, but they were tiny and there was no way I would be able to reach them without breaking a bone or two, or my jaw even. “If you pull it any more, I'm sure you'll pop an artery or a vein.”“You're being dramatic, Liana.” Serena chuckled behind me. “I've barely even started.”I chuckled nervously, while I hoped and prayed that she would be joking, but she wasn't. She pulled at the strings behind my dress,and I felt the red velvety material rest smugly against my skin. “See.” I could feel the happiness and pride radiating in her voice. “Now it's perfect. Why don't you check yourself out in the mirror?”Honestly, I didn't want to, but I found my feet moving on their own accord. I moved slowly, only stopping till I was in front of the floor length mirror. The moment I came face to face with my reflection, I couldn't help the gasp that slid past my lips.

Chapter 78

Liana's POV The night was young, and even though it was the perfect opportunity for a reckless time, I wasn't the least bit interested in it. If anything, I wished the night hadn't even come, that way , I wouldn't have been forced with the thoughts that ran carelessly in my mind at the moment.A small groan slid past my lips as I turned to the other side of the bed. It creaked slightly, and I didn't miss how the duvet seemed to dig gently into my skin. Usually, I would marvel at how soft and lush it was, but tonight was different. The only thing the blanket did, was pole uncontrollably at my sides.Shit. I bit back a groan as I turned back to my previous position. It had worked and was at least a tiny bit comfortable, but not anymore. Frustration simmered underneath my bones, but that wasn't the worst part. I wanted to scream, to yell, but I couldn't. Why? I wasn't alone. My eyes glanced to the space beside me, and my eyes landed on the man sleeping next to me. His eyes were pr

Chapter 79

Liana's POV It wasn't news that I'd barely slept a wink last night, but I knew why. I was anxious and worried, restless too. All thanks to Reuben and Richard. I'd tried confiding in Kieran about it all, but I just couldn't bring myself to do so, not when he was all groggy from sleep and cute too. If I had so much as suspected that they'd upset me that much, I didn't even want to think about what he would do to them. He was that protective of me, and even if a huge part of me adored it sometimes, I wasn't sure he could do anything about itIf I was going to take their words seriously, everything all boiled down to the fact that I seemed to be the problem. I was making a mistake being Kieran's Luna according to Reuben, and Richard simply believed the position I was about to own, was nowhere near mine. In his words, I was reaping where I didn't sow. It had been a miracle for me to go to bed last night. If Kieran hadn't woken up when he did, I doubted I would have slept a wink last n

Chapter 80

Kieran's POV I wanted to be alone, and one would think that thanks to the absence of a lot of people in the palace, asides the many guards and servants, peace of mind would be attainable. But I was wrong, very very wrong and today had just proved it. I ran a hand through my hair, my fingers tugging at my scalp. It hurt, but I didn't stop. Maybe the pain would transmit something to my brain and it would finally give me an idea on how to solve the issue at hand. When I'd gotten out of bed this morning, my first prayer to the goddess was for today to go well. Ever since she'd healed Liana, I'd begun trusting her. I guess it was a bit forward of me to think she was always going to answer my requests. If I had just sucked it all up and expected the worst, nothing that had happened today would have surprised me the way they did.I sighed forlornly, pulling the thought out of my mind. My unease had started at night, the moment I realized that something was off about Liana. She was restle
