Caught Between Two Worlds

All Celestine ever wanted was to be someone powerful so that she won't be looked down upon. That was what she wished on a blissful night. And that very wish made her life go downhill years later ever since she came across a sacred pendant. When an invitation lands on her lap to the most prestigious university of Adrian, nothing could stop her from going there. That is until her life gets entwined with two men, the cruellest foes of each other which she wishes to escape from. But the universe paints a different picture. On a dreary day, she falls to her near-death and finds herself in the ancient land of Vitalis. With an unintentionally committed crime to her name, she must face the justice of the place where mercy is invaluable and death is inevitable and of little value. And so her trial begins at the mercy of the tainted hands of the Masked Tyrant. Alastair Arden Waldorf. Ruthless, cold-blooded and faceless. When things turn for the worse, will she be able to return to her land and not be involved in a terrifying history? Will she save, kill or escape from the tyrant to the other two men when he shall come for her? Shall love prevail between the two or will they stick to their time to avoid an inevitable curse? ~ WARNING: Mature Content (18+) Cover Design: imagineTishaD (Webnovel) Image Credit: fromKITnoc (DeviantArt) Want to support and interact with the author?

~ 104: A Place With More Foes Than Companions - Part 3 ~

"What are you back here for, Lady Lilith?" I heard the king say through the doors, despite the large distance. My hearing was getting better each day and it was frightening me that I could hear things I didn't want to eavesdrop on. But more than that, I was somehow easily able to slip past the shields of both of us.

"I did as you ordered, Your Majesty," said the lady with the prettily carved face with a bow of her head.

"As I ordered? When did I ever ask for anything from anyone when I could seize it myself if I wished?"

"You had told me that I didn't know the real hardships in life and told me to be a maid at the palace."

He snickered so loudly that both the disguised maid and I recoiled. The sound echoed off the walls and my head, making it seem more disturbing than his already dark aura.
