A Court Of Love & Sufferings

ch.34

I stand in an unknown place. It is dark, a thick layer of fog covers the view. I walk ahead passing through the fog, i realise it's a tunnel. The tunnel is carved with stones and rock. Walking closer i see some patterns engraved on the rocks. Some sort of patterns are etched on the stones, it looks like a drawing. Texts are written below them in an unfamiliar language. I move ahead following the shapes, the narrow passageway opens into a chamber. It looks like someone used to live here. There in the middle of the room is a casket. I step closer to it, i was only few steps away to peak in the casket when a creature appears in front of me. It stands between the casket and me like it is protecting whatever is in the casket. It is wearing a black robe covering it completely. Shadows surrounds the creature, rotating around it. It steps closer to me. I realise it is floating. It stops a foot away from me.

"Starborn" it hisses in a raspy voice.

I sit up straight on the bed, it was a nightmare. Again this weird nightmare. Why am i having these nightmares. How did that thing knew i am a starborn. I try to remember what i saw, a sharp pain in my head has me clutching my head.

"Oww"

I get out of the cover, i realise i am not in my house. It is the same room i stayed during my first visit in velaris. How did i get here. I try to remember but the pain is unbearable. I walk out of the room. I see mor having breakfast.

"Good morning. How are you feeling?" she asks noticing me.

"Terrible. I have a killer headache" i take a seat beside her.

She chuckles "Well that's a given. You had quite a few drinks yesterday"

I groan "I am never getting drunk again"

"It was your first time, you will get used to it. I will get you painkillers" mor says.

After taking the painkiller i can finally concentrate on something else. Feyre joins us.

"Hey! How are you doing" feyre asks cheerfully.

"How are you so lively in the morning?"  i ask her, she is literally glowing.

"Oh the credit goes to the high lord. Right feyre darling?" Mor winks at feyre.

"How?" i ask not understanding.

"They glow like light when they do the deed. It is because of day court's power" mor explains.

"Ohhh" that's something new.

Feyre blushes "Enough about me. What about you. We saw you guys yesterday"

"Who?" i ask.

"You and cassian who else"

"What about us?" i frown.

Mor and feyre looks at me like i have grown two heads.

"The kiss? Remember something. Don't tell me you forgot it" mor says.

It hits me then, the memories of last night. The club, drinks,me and cassian dancing. The kiss.

I kissed him.

"Ohh" i let out in realisation.

"This is hilarious. Cassian was freaking out because you guys kissed and here she doesn't even remember it" mor laughs.

"Give her a moment will you. It is her first hangover. She remembers now" feyre and mor talks but i don't pay attention to them. All i can focus on is that kiss. Damn i can't believe i initiated it. I couldn't resist when he was looking at me like he wanted it too.
