Chapter 9

She falls asleep quickly and I leave shortly after, I walk around the hallways of the castle trying to keep my composure, I can feel the tears well up in my eyes. I walk around in a daze. Even though I haven't known the woman at all in my entire existence, it's still powerful to see her like that. I've always wondered about the woman that gave birth to me. Wondering why she let me go, and it was out of love. She knew she couldn't protect me, so she sent me away to a world where she didn't know the first thing.

I finally break down and collapse onto the floor with fully blown out tears. I feel as if I've been shot before a hand is put on my mouth and I'm dragged into a dark room

"Are you dying or something?" I hear Lucas say harshly. I look up to him surprised. "You're... crying." He says softer. "What happened?" He says running his hands through his messy brown hair.

"Nothing, it doesn't concern you," I say trying to make a run for it. But his muscular arms grab me.

"When someone wails the way you were, they make it everyone's business." He returns back to his harsh tone. "Now tell me." He demands and pulls me closer to him.

"I saw my mother, the way she was, and the things she said," I say shaking my head and allowing more tears to drop. He looks at me almost surprised for a second before pulling me into an embrace. His arms feel good on me and I begin crying again. I look up at him and he looks back at me and cups my face with one hand, as my lips touch his, I feel him flinch slightly but he doesn't stop. He kisses me, really kisses me, unlike any of the kisses I've ever had throughout my life. My entire body begins burning, I can feel his tongue run along mine and I wrap my arms around his neck, kissing him back. I gasp in surprise at how cold his skin feels but I don't mind. It feels refreshing on my warm skin. He finally pulls back and looks down at me.

"Eleonora I don't think I can do this." He says quietly letting go, I look up at him confused. "I think you should go." He continues taking a step back. I look at him, I can see the desperation in his eyes.

"Oh, I'm sorry," I say before leaving the room dark bedroom with the grey and black surroundings and running back to mine. I feel humiliated. When I finally enter my room, I have no more tears to shed. I sit there in silence for the rest of the day sulking and looking out the window. I remind myself that I can't get caught up in this crazy world. I need to find a way to survive.
