Underneath the coldness of my skin

[MATURE THEMES] Never in her life had Celeste thought of waking up in the middle of the night at the horrendous screams of her parents nor finding out the man she had loved to her bone would do the dreadful deed of assisting his dad in killing her parents in the greed of power and wealth.  The grief and heartbreak she had gone through was one of hell and seeing the facade of her ex-partner's father falling before her feet the next night trapped inside the walls of her chamber when he tried to assault her was frighteningly alarming which left her with no way but to flee the Kingdom she grew up in. The palace where she only had the best of memories until that unfortunate night when she unwillingly had to let go of the people who gave birth to her. Who she loved to death.  Then again, never in her life had Celeste thought there will be a moment she will be brought to the kingdom of Elyznh— which she heard about a lot but didn't though one day she will be setting foot there and living a life pretending to be a human when the blood flowing inside her nerves were pure Vampire— living with werewolves nor falling in love with a werewolf. Her secret is her's only, and when she dies it will become mere ashes as she is and rose in the sky, until then no one needs to know.

Lying through her teeth

"I don't know what you're implying, Your Highness. I never stepped out of the harem last night. I was sick. If you are that doubtful about me telling the truth you can ask my maid, Your Highness. She will tell you about my innocence in this claim." Celeste says, squaring her shoulder and trying to seem confident.

"Sick? What happened to you?" His Highness asks, his facade slipping and letting a glimpse of concern flash through his face.

The satisfaction of knowing that His Highness truly cares for her well-being coursed through her veins. "I had a fever, it's Kia who tended to me all night long, it's when I told her to go have some sleep that she left, it was really late into the night that time. I was tired to my bones, then how would I be able to walk out in the dead of the night, Your Highness?" She asks.

And His Highness stays mum, having no words to offer Celeste as if he doesn't know how to utter words at all.
