A Rush Of Euphoria

Chapter Five :The message

After training with Sir Andrew I had retired to my room to prepare for dinner tonight. Jennet and Mabel were already waiting for my return, I had sent them out to prepare on my own for the night.

Well thanks to the moon goddess if it wasn't for her I wouldn't be here today, she saved me from death and helped my mom bring me to life, a favour we are all paying dearly for till today.

I was a prisoner who was spoilt as much as a princess. When the queen took me captive she had made sure I was given all the love she could bring as long as I would be well behaved. Since we are a family, she let me partake in royal meeting, attend councils with her, discuss her plans on how she thinks we could overtake other creatures out there that were against us, especially the vampires. She also got me my own personal maids Mabel and Jennet.

Sometimes I wonder if she had forgotten what I did to her, because to her nothing like that never happened. She could be cruel and menacing as f*ck but still has a good side that she keeps under the covers, but still don't be fooled, sometimes I always feel like its fake, like her every action is under control.

After I took my bath, I wrapped a white towel around my chest then dried my hair with my hair dryer. After then I choose to wear a red sleeveless gown that clung to my body, showing all my curves for dinner that hung above my knees matching it with black heels. Then with a black necklace and earrings, the necklace hung in the middle of the medallion given to me by the moon goddess. I let my hair pour loosely on my shoulder, It was really long now compared to when I just cut it short; so black that you could see some hint of silver mixed with it.

I used my mascara on my eyes that helped in intensifying my green eyes then dabbed a red lipstick on my lips to match with my gown. Then with some foundation to brighten up my face, today I felt like sticking with a light makeup, I rather be nude for the night like completely natural. But the blood of an Amazon through me, we love to lure, looking our best and being the center of attraction wherever we go.

Dinner in the moon palace is always excruciating to me, it all about royals and high guards eating together, discussing their plans from their various point of view, or talks about the upcoming war . That I don't have a problem with, but why do we always have to dress like we were going for a grand ball. You have to look your best every night or you won't get to eat for a week, a lesson I was taught dearly.

I applied my perfume "seduction" checked my self out in the mirror before I left. My nickname during dinner is the seductress of the night because I always have most males sometimes females on the edge.

I arrived at the dinner hall, it was so beautiful decorated with gold, sculpted designs of half moons, and wolf head on it. In the middle lay a big crown. Heads turned my way when I arrived, the queen gave me an appreciative nod while Dmitri smirked at me.

It was already getting filled, no one wants to be late and make the goddess upset. Finally everyone was present, then the maids came in to start serving our meal, when they where done they took their various post behind us, five feet apart .

"Now let's pray"

Everyone except the moon goddess chimed in "Glorious mother of the moon, seer of the day and helper of the night, protector of the moon that shines her stars so bright that we could hunt at night , we thank you, we love you, we adore you, let your love never fade"

With that everyone picked their cutlery and started devouring on their meal.

"Mom Aunt Alexia was rude to me today " wailed John

I knew this was gonna happen

The moon goddess turned from her son and look at me in the eyes, daggers ready to rip me off
