Nathan showed me the room i would be staying in for now. At least it’s more preferable than the cave.
“And don’t forget what i told you, whenever they say anything to you, ignore them” he warned for the hundredth time. Not like i was gonna retaliate to their talks anyway.
“After taking your shower, you should come downstairs for dinner” he said before heading out.
I just pray i would be able to ignore them like he advised, cause i really can’t control myself whenever I’m mad.
After bathing, i dressed in my casual wear before heading downstairs.
This mansion is so magnificent, i never had the chance to look around cause i was so tired. After lunch i will persuade Nathan to take me around.
We were all seated round the table as the maids served our food.
My mouth watered at the sight before me. Different delicacy of food.
I was about digging into my food when a very harsh voice stopped me.
“How dare you think of eating without our permission? We might let you stay but that doesn’t mean you’re a queen in this mansion”.
“Stop that Isabella. I brought her here and you dare not talk to my visitor like that, except you want me to do something i will regret” Nathan spoke up even before i could apologize.
“That is my problem, why would you bring a stranger into our home?” She coaxed.
“I also don’t remember you being a part of this family. My mother might have assured you that i will marry you. He laughed drying before speaking up again. “I can never and will never be mated to a whore like you” he said with finality in his voice.
“Why would you say a thing like that in front of a stranger? I’ve been here all this while waiting for you and this is all you could say. You also refered to me as a whore” tears brimmed on her smooth cheek.
“Well i never told you i was going to make you my mate, did i?
“You know what? I really don’t care about your thoughts cause your mom already assured me that we will be together. You can go ahead to f*ck this b*tch right here i don’t care” she said pointing towards my direction.
“I don’t think you’re talking to me, are you? I asked as i couldn’t keep up with the act of being quiet.
“Yes, and what are you gonna do about that, are you gonna beat me? Cause you dare not think of raising your filthy hands on me” she concluded without remorse.
“One more word from you and i will squeeze your mouth off. I allowed Xina take over as she has been wanting to take control.
I really don’t know how but my cheek started stinging.
“What did you just do?”
“I slapped you, you dummy”.
Well i don’t think i can control myself anymore as i raised her up with one hand using my other hand to slap her very hard on the face.
“Nessa, stop that” Nathan said removing my other hand from her neck.
“No, just let me deal with this fool” i freed my hand from his grasp. Ready to land another punch on her face when an Angelic but daring voice stopped me.
“And what do you think you’re doing, fighting in my own house?” I turned to beheld and angel descending from the stair. She held the tips of her long shiny yello gown, walking graciously towards my direction.
“Good evening Luna” the b*tch whom i just had a fight with, greeted the lady.
“Go… ood evening gracious Luna. It’s such a pleasure seeing the moon Goddess in form of a Luna” i bowed a little showering praises on her which i definitely knew got her as she smiled lovingly at me.
“You’re Nathan’s visitor, am i correct?”
“Yes dear Luna” i answered stuttering a little as she’s already very close to me.
“I never knew you would be this beautiful as Nathan never told me he would be bringing home an Angel. You’re so beautiful darling” she held my hands firmly in hers looking directly into my eyes.
“Who am i to find favor in the eyes of this great Luna” i really don’t know how it happen but i opened my eyes and saw myself already in her arms as she engulfed me into a warm and tender hugs.
I get to meet nice people bit one way or the other, but there is always a b*tch like Meredith, Anna and this one right here whom i got to know as Anabella.
“Why don’t we have dinner already before the food gets cold. And i also believe you must be very tired after the long journey. Why not eat and go back to your room and have very long rest” she said holding my hand as she walked to the wide dinning table.
“That would be great but i also wanna take a tour around you castle. Mi lady”
“That’s definitely not gonna be today. You need a very good rest as i won’t want anything to happen to my son’s visitor cause you all know my son’s visitor is also my visitor” she concluded with finality giving me no space to argue. Not like i wanna argue anyway.
I know Isabella won’t be able to take it anymore as she called the Luna with tears in her eyes. “Mother, aren’t you supposed to detest her for trying to steal my mate? She said as the tears threatened to fall.
“Why should i detest her when she is not a bad person as you assume her to be?” She asked. Her angelic voice never leaving her lips.
“Don’t think you won cause i won’t let you take my man away from me” she barked before storming out.
“Don’t mind her dear, she has always been like that towards any lady that comes close to Nathan” she assured me before facing her food.
After doing justice to my food, i thanked everyone before heading upstairs to my room.
I’d swear that this is the most biggest room I’ve ever stayed in since i left home.
I looked through the window and was nearly blinded by the sight of fresh flowers and waterfall. Of course i can’t wait to explore this wonderful place.
I couldn’t sleep as i was busy reminiscing about Meredith and the Alpha being in love.
I felt a tight nut tightened in my chest as i thought of Meredith beneath the Alpha’s warm body.
“Vanessa, this isn’t what we should be thinking about right now” Xina spoke in my head for the first time since we left the other castle.
I really don’t know when i slept off as i woke up to the soft knock on the door.
“Nessa, are you in there? Nathan’s voice asked from the outside.
“Yes, I’m definitely in here and I’m also fine. I will be with you shortly” i assured as he answered “okay” before leaving. I just pray this place ain’t like the other Alpha’s castle.
After doing my business in the bathroom, i came out to change into something simple before heading downstairs.
I got there and met them already seated around the dinning as they waited for me to come before eating.
As soon as we finished eating, i asked Nathan to take me on a tour around the castle as i couldn’t stop thinking of the wonderful view.
“Isn’t that too early, why not wait for a little while? He asked with concern.
“I definitely can’t wait to explore this place” i said dragging him outside.
I really don’t know what i was doing untill i heard the Luna chuckled quietly, my hands quickly left that of Nathan.
“I’m sorry, i shouldn’t have done that” i apologized.
“No dear, there’s nothing wrong with that”.
“Really? I asked. My eyes scanning everyone present in the room.
“Absolutely, you can go and take a tour around, but don’t stress yourself” she said and got up before heading upstairs.
The tour was a long one as couldn’t stop asking him to take me from one place to another. I knew he must have been so exhausted by now cause i can’t deny not being tired after this long walk and i would say this castle is so big that i wonder if it was for one person alone.
“Wgat about your dad? I asked even before i could realize.
“Can we not talk about it for now?” He asked taking back his attention to the roses as the morning breeze blew making them dance joyfully.
“I’m sorry if i brought back any bad memories” i apologized as i saw a figure approaching towards us.
“Hey Nathan, i never knew you were back as nobody told me”.
“The handsome dude said shaking hands with Nathan.
Well i don’t need to be told to know he’s a total flirt with the kind of eyes he’s looking at me with.
“If you’re trying to seduce me with those eyes, I’m sorry to say this but you’re wasting your time” my subconscious mind said to him.
“Do you mind me knowing your name? He asked bringing his hands close to me for a shake.
“Vanessa, i shaked his hands but he refused to let go of my hands after that.
I tried taking off my hands from his grip, but he tightened his grip the more.
Nathan noticed this as he quickly dragged my hand away from his strong hand.
“What do you think you’re doing? Nathan asked with anger coaxed in his voice.
“Welcoming our new guest as you can see” he answered, smiling sheepishly.
Why do i smell evil around him?
