Happy Diwali Everyone For Who Are Celebrating Out There ~?
********
The deeper night fell in Richalwolf Land, Wolves paddled through the nearby forests in search of their prey. But the scenario was different inside Vallodisan Castle. Though other average wolves or shifter wolves preferred to run wildly throughout the night, the castle followed a strange rule. Those who worked or lived in Castle couldn't go outside after evening except the Royal mbers. Even sotis Silas had to seek permission from his father to go out at night. The queen preferred to maintain a modestic life.
After the decision was finalized by Cedric, Isabella was left alone in her room to rest and sleep as much as possible. Under Jessie's sharp supervision, she had fallen asleep until her painful nightmares returned. All she could hear a baby's wailing in her ears. Her heart accelerated, forehead turned sweaty after the tense atmosphere ran through her mind. Even in her nightmare, she was desperate to her baby.
Then her peaceful sleep didn't last longer. She woke up panting like she had just ran a race. Face contoured in horror, she looked like a frightened rabbit. Isabella tugged the blanket down from her body and placed her feet on the ground. After she managed to inhale a gush of fresh air, only then she extended her hand to grab a bottle for her.
A full glass of water wasn't successful to carry her pains away. Thinking about sothing that her little sister had put for her inside the drawer, she thought about it as a good idea. Isabella streched out her hand to pull out the drawer and picked up a packet of cigarette for herself. Jessie gave it to her before leaving her room. She told her that if she fell depressed and consud in pains, she could smoke a little.
Looking down at her own shivering hands, Isabella regarded it as the best idea and clutched the packet of cigarette hesitantly. Her little sister had always weird ideas to relieve tensions. Isabella wanted to do it there but the maids often visited her at night and it would be shaful if so of them sniffed that bad sll of cigarette.
Thus she decided to go for the rooftop and hoped that it would work on her pains just as Jessie said. Lucky no one was there nearby when Isabella stepped out of her living room. It was perfect ti for her and she wasted no ti to run upstairs for the rooftop.
It took few minutes to reach the rooftop of Vallodisan Castle. Once she reached over there, fresh night wind welcod her. The sky had no moon today but had an ocean of starts that looked heavenly. Her upset mood was soon lightened up by the warm nature around. Mother nature had really the ability of coaxing its child.
Tiptoed, Isabella walked towards the railings to stand by its side and pulled out one of the cigarette from the packet. Her hands worked quite nervously on the process. Since she never smoked before, her feelings were like she was committing a grieve cri. After fisting with the pocket for a while, she put out the cigarette and put it between her lips. Reaching out for the match, she tried to flicker it clumsily and it lit up after several failure attempts.
Isabella took a long puff from the cigarette and gulped it down into her stomach without exhaling it through her noise. She was amateur and unskilled completely which gave her zero ideas about how to smoke properly. Just as the smoke dove into her stomach, a familiar voice ca from her back,
" Well.. That's not how you should smoke!"
Startled by the sudden presence behind her, Isabella choked vigorously on her smoke. Not only that, she started coughing so violently that her eyes teared up and she eventually wanted to die in sha. She was an honorable princess for God's sake.
Turning around in a swift, she spotted a man laying under the umbrella shaped shade. His body looked hanging as if he would fall down anyti soon but he was perfectly laying there over the broad railings. Two hands were crossed underneath his head as a pillow and he tilted his head up with his green glowing eyes. Isabella's sha had no bounds when she saw who the person.
Duke Silas!
Her first impression was to run away but she managed to act cool sohow. Her voice ca out suturingly as she tried to hide the cigarette behind her back,
" Du..Du..Duke.. Silas.. What.. what are you doing here?"
Silas smirked upon her suturing. He just ca to sit there and refresh his mood but who knew that he would end up catching in smoking. Silas yawned before sitting straight from the railings and ca under her sight to give her a better view. Though the sky wasn't showering much light to see each other, Isabella could still see his knowing smirk amidst the half darkeness.
Silas replied shoving his fists into his pockets lazily,
" I thought that you ca to kill yourself again but who knew that I would discover sothing more interesting."
Isabella cleared her throat shyly and reasoned pretending to sound natural,
" It was Jessie..She suggested to calm down my nerves.."
Silas chucked and spotted those little tears in her eyes,
" I can see that how calm are you now. Have you smoked before?"
Isabella shook her head shyly and felt a second hand embarrassent. She just wanted to try but it turned out like her luck was never on her side. Isabella bit her lips together before muttering,
" Don't mind my behavior! I was a little stupid this ti."
Silas shurgged before walking over to stand beside her towards the railings,
" Why would I mind when I do the sa thing?"
Isabella appeared a little stunned by his answer. Before her words could leave her mouth, Silas asked bringing one of his hand out to her,
" Can I get one?"
Isabella coughed lightly before putting one into his palms. As she saw him lightening up the cigarette, her face darkened in sha. Now she understood how stupid her smoking was. Silas took two natural puff from his cigarette before turning his head back to look at the woman who appeared shy and guilty.
Silas offered hanging the cigarette before his forefingers,
" Do you want to learn how to smoke, Princess?"
Isabella hesitated before nodding her head. Although she was caught red-handed, she still wished to learn that. Jessie was a quite good smoker and had shared the experience with her many tis. Though it might not work on her, she wanted to give it a try.
Silas grinned turning around to lean against the railings lazily,
" Perfect! You won't find any better master than ."
Isabella only smiled awkwardly. The thought of smoking together with the duke had only given her the urge of digging her own grave in sha.
Where were her moral values?
Silas instructed gladly before taking a slow puff,
" Watch ! You should take the fu into your stomach. You rember? But I have a condition."
Isabella's brows slightly crooked after hearing his condition,
" Condition? What is that?"
Silas replied keeping his eyes stuck on her questioning eyes,
" Only one per day. You haven't healed completely, you know?"
Isabella didn't know how to feel at the mont. This man was always very caring towards her oddly. She still promised since she had to learn from him,
" Okay but I have a question."
Silas paused between his another puff and gestured her to speak. Isabella asked tugging on her gown uncomfortably,
" How..how did I heal so fast? My sister was wandering. Did you do so magic on ?"
Silas didn't had any reaction after her question. His lips curled up a little as he replied staring back at her intensely,
" Yes! I have made you mine. That's it!"
Isabella's eyes widened in shock. Her heart was beating so loudly that she forgot to speak for a while. Her astonishnt didn't escape away from Silas's sharp eyes. He could already imagine that Isabella would never accept the truth. To not ruin the mont, he only laughed taking another puff to calm down his own nerves this ti,
" Kidding! Watch now!"
Isabella huffed in relief. Sotis his joke sounded so terrible that she literally forgot her own place. Isabella chuckled before watching him smoking again.
His act was natural and skilled as if he was born with extraordinary handso skills. Her eyes subconsciously held a great admiration towards him which didn't miss Silas's eyes. His throat burnt at the imagination of being watched by her intensely.
After they spent few monts in silence, Isabella couldn't help but complinting slowly,
" You do it so flawlessly. It must be feeling very good, isn't it?"
Silas put away the cigarette from his lips montarily before asking,
" You want to taste my skills?"
Isabella frowned wondering,
" But..how?"
Silas didn't answer her instantly this ti. Taking another long puff from his cigarette, he carefully placed it over the railings and then pressing his own lips onto her suddenly....
