Arabella’s point of view.
(KING’S PALACE _ KING WYMOND’S ROOM)
“Ara!” I heard Renee shouted distinctively and I felt a weight on me, don’t tell me she just fell on me because I ain’t gonna get up -I still wanna sleep some more.
“Wake up, Ara” she said as she shook my shoulders, but I ignored her and carried on sleeping.
I’m feeling very tired even though I’ve been sleeping since last night, or did someone beat me with a stick while I was sleeping?
“It’s 9:30am already, wake up!!” she shouted in my ear, but I still didn’t wake up and she sighed. “Then don’t blame for my next action…”
Next action? What next action?
“… I’m gonna kiss you on the lips” she said.
Ew, gross. My eyes snapped open at once as every ounce of sleepiness vanished from my eyes, I groaned as I glared maliciously at Renee for disturbing my sweet sleep, but she’s staring at me with a smile and… admiration?
Why is she staring at me with admiration? Did I undergo some form of miracle overnight and became prettier than her?
“It’s been a very enjoyable night for someone” she said as she wagged her eyebrows teasingly.
Enjoyable night? What was enjoyable about last night? And what on earth is she talking about?
“Last night was a great night, how are you feeling right now?” she asked making me feel even more confused.
“Er… Renee, are you ok?” I asked her back.
She stopped grinning as her eyebrows raised surprisingly, she tilted her head and stared at me as though she’s trying to figure out something.
“Oh no!” she exclaimed loudly with her eyes widened in realization -what did she realize?
She reached forward, held my head still and looked directly in my eyes for a short while, then checked my temperature.
“You’re not sick” she murmured. “OH NO!” she exclaimed again, louder than before.
“What’s wrong?” I asked, my eyes copied hers and widened in surprise too… no, confusion.
“Don’t tell me my brother was too rough last night!”
“Huh?”
Last night?
My eyes followed her gaze and I realized she’s staring at my…. that was when last night’s event rushed back to my memory and I quickly pulled the blanket over my head as embarrassment got the best of me.
“Did he accidentally hit your head on the wall, therefore causing you a temporary amnesia?” she asked.
I kicked her blindly since the blanket’s covering my face and I can’t see her, it’s a thick blanket after all.
“Stop”
“Stop what?”
“Don’t you feel gross imagining your brother and I mating?”
“Oh” she cleared her throat. “I wasn’t actually imagining it, I was just being concerned about you and…”
“Ughhh!!” I groaned as I pulled the blanket off my face and glared at her.
Renee simply laughed and shook her head at my embarrassed expression, she wiped off a drool line on my cheek.
“Oh, darling, there’s nothing to be embarrassed off, mating is very normal between mates and…”
“You’re teasing me, please stop”
“I’m not teasing you, I just wanna know if I should be expecting a niece soon?”
My cheeks flamed up at her question and I pushed her off me, then rested my back on the headboard.
“What?!” she gasped. “Don’t tell me you let everything go to waste last night, didn’t you let him cum in you?”
“Renee!!” I shouted in total shame.
She’s just a crazy sister-in-law, don’t she feel weird saying all these things? I can’t imagine Arthur doing his dirty deeds with his numerous girlfriends, it’s just sick and making me wanna puke.
Renee raised her hands in surrender.
“Fine, I’ve gotten my answer” she said.
“You have”
“Yeah” she nodded. “From your embarrassed expression, I could tell Wymond didn’t let last night go to waste and my niece is already forming” she said and burst into laughter, covering her face as she laughs.
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, I guess I won’t tell Daphne about this because I can barely stand Renee teasing me, talk more or less of Daphne -I’d just go crazy.
“Here”
Renee handed me a very small bowl of some black soup, which I frowned at in disgust and gave her a questioning look.
“It’s gonna help my niece grow healthily and…”
“You’ve been saying your niece, what if it’s a boy?” I asked.
She paused and stared at my stomach for a while, then shook her head in disagreement.
“Nope, I want a girl whom I’ll be braiding her hair and teaching her some gossip skills, we’ll both be playmates” she giggled, but I frowned slightly.
She doesn’t have good plans for my daughter, she wanna be teaching her gossip skills?!
Well thankfully, I’m not praying to have a daughter first and even if I do, I’ll keep my daughter hundred feet away from her or else, my daughter would be a spoilt brat like me and her!
“It’s a boy, it must be a boy because I don’t wanna have a girl first”
“Why?”
I rolled my eyeballs, because of you darling, duh -but I didn’t tell her that though.
“Because I wanna give my mate a heir” I said instead.
Renee twisted her lips thoughtfully for a short while, then nod in agreement and gave me a thumbs up.
“You’re right, Wymond’s waited too long to have a pup of his own and he’d started aging again, giving him a heir is gonna be the greatest gift of all” she said.
“How old was Wymond when he stopped aging?” I asked her.
“Er… he should be twenty-seven or twenty-eight years, I’m not so sure anymore… it’s been a very, very long time already”
Yeah, it’s been a long time and I’d lost count too if it was me.
My phone suddenly beeped and I quickly reached for it, I saw a message from Daphne popped up -I opened the conversation without wasting time.
*Donavon wanna meet you, he’s inviting you for dinner after school tomorrow, what do you say?*
Why didn’t she just mind-link me instead of texting me?
Oh, right, I blocked my mind-link because immediately after Wymond marked me last night, I started hearing everyone’s thoughts in his region, I don’t know if that’s normal -I’ll ask Renee.
*We’ll see in school tomorrow and talk more* I texted her back and tossed my phone on the bedside table.
“Renee, after I was marked last night….”
“It’s normal, darling” she cut me off, it seemed like she’s already known what I wanna ask. “Your mate is the King of all supernatural creatures, getting marked by him gives you some of his special abilities too”
“Really?”
“Yeah” she paused briefly. “Like for instance, you can hear every supernatural creature’s thoughts and you can compel them to do whatever you want just like Wymond”
A smile spread on my face at her words.
“Wow, that’s awesome”
“Yeah” she laughed shortly at my naivety. “And you can run faster than before, see things in dark places clearer and also hear clearer than any other supernatural creatures -these are perks of being mated to the King of all supernatural creatures” she said.
OMG! I didn’t ever imagine a day would come when I’d hear other people’s thoughts, I have always envied those vampires for having such ability (the mind reading ability), and now it’s naturally come to me.
“Come on, time to take a bath” she said.
I let out a tired groan and shook my head in disagreement.
“Has he apologized to you?” she asked.
“Nope”
“Then your revenge on him isn’t over until he apologize, come on, take your bath and leave the rest to me”
“Argh, what are you planning this time?”
She simply shrugged her shoulders.
“Nothing, I just wanna take a walk to the barrack and you’re gonna accompany me” she said and giggled slyly
