Chapter 12 

Two blinks

He couldn’t believe the relief he felt from the sound of her voice. Oh!Her eyes grew bright, and the scarred side of her face lifted and tightened before she turned and whispered her thoughts out loud, What could he want

Bea?” 

Bea? Is that her name? Instantly, he started fast blinking, and she turned towards him, eyebrows lifted. Do you simply want me to talk?” 

Two blinks. Please. Please keep talking to me

Oh.And then she dared to look disgruntled before asking, About what? I thought since I’m a slave and you know I’m a slave, it would be inappropriate for me to speak with you. That’s the custom I’m used to, anyway.Her eyes shifted to the side before she looked down

He felt something inside him shift. He wasn’t sure what it was. He couldn’t possibly feel protective over her, but hearing that she might have been treated poorly made the sides of his eyes see red. He didn’t blink, he just stared up at her as he composed himself

ButI do miss talking. It was the first time since I lost my parents.She paused and looked back up at him

Two blinks

But you know that I’m not Savonnuh. It would be inappropriate, even if I AM your wife.” 

He blinked several times. He wanted her to keep going. He wanted to know everything, anything. He felt starved for attention. Maybe that’s because he truly was

She laughed before saying, Okay! uhm, one blink if you want more answers on why I’m Savonnuh or two blinks about me being your wife?” 

He blinked three times. He wanted it all. In a matter of hours, this woman had become incredibly important to him. She was his one key to freedom! He’d already done more physically in the last day than he had all year long

and it was all thanks to her

His attention turned from internal thoughts to that of the girl as she spun a tale from her experiences over the past few weeks. Savonnuh’s death. The cold carriage ride to his castle. She even explained how he was exiled for attempting to murder his father, and the ExBeta was marked as a traitor for colluding with him

Then she said, When Rebecca saw how ugly I was, she said the scars make my name more fitting.She smiled for a short moment. Since you know I’m not Savonnuh, you might as well know my name. It’s nice to meet you, #ince Dax, I’m Beastly, but please think of me as Bea.” 

Beastly? They named her BEASTLY? His thoughts were scattered, and his emotions were almost as split. He was angry because of the treatment she’d undergone at the hands of people he thought were friends. Even more shocking to him was the fact that he was charged with Treason and attempted murder of his father

Chapter 12 

She’d mentioned at one point that she KNEW who started the fire, and he wanted to do anything necessary to talk again, if just to ask her about that. He told himself that these were the reasons he was excited to be talking with at slave, and not because he cared for that slave

Not knowing his thoughts, she smiled and then, almost as an afterthought, she said, I wonder if you can talk.She was still leaning over Dax when he heard the door to his room open, and he watched Bea jerk back in surprise 

and turn to see who it was

I see that you’ve grown comfortable. Enjoy it while it lasts. I told you, he’s too far gone. He’ll be dead soon.He 

knew that voice. It was David. The worst creature he’d ever known

so there was a fire that gave Bea here scars, the accident incapacitated Dax, someone framed him for it, and David is mega suspicious. I wonder if they’re trying to have Dax …
