Chapter Thirteen

Zola

Zola sat at the table, anxiously waiting to see Melony. She didn't engage in any of the conversations around the table. There were a few witches, male and female, along with other magical creatures, but Zola ignored all of them. Her gaze was glued to the door, waiting for Melony.

"I heard you're from the Opal herd."

Zola glanced to the werewolf who sat next to her, eyeing her. She looked nice enough, but she was trying to talk to Zola when her mind was occupied by one thought.

Melony.

Zola opened her mouth to tell her to leave her be when she heard the doors open. She turned instantly to see who it was, hope filling her. The doors opened wide, and there stood Melony. Her brown skin practically glowing, as if she had been dipped in gold. Her curls looked defined and bounced as she walked into the room. The dress was plain, but it did nothing to dampen Melony's beauty. She was absolutely stunning.

Zola stood up, so happy to see Melony. She saw the smile on Melony's face and instantly knew it wasn't her real smile. The tight way her lips pressed together and the small indent on the side that made it seem as if any second the smile would turn into a frown.

As soon as Melony caught Zola's eyes, a real smile appeared on her face, and Zola's heart ached from seeing it. The way Melony walked into the room, everyone around the table couldn't help but turn and watch. She was that beautiful. She commanded the room to attention. Zola smiled at that. Melony was worth all the attention and more.

The servant that trailed behind her even made it seem as if Melony was the one in charge. The only thing that made it seem any different was the metal null cuffs on Melony's wrists, but even the cuffs didn't take away from Melony's beauty.

Melony made her way to Zola. Zola moved quickly, pulling out a chair for her. She wanted Melony to stay next to her. Melony squeezed her hand, and Zola reflexively did the same.

"You look beautiful," Zola said.

She knew eyes were on them, so she couldn't ask Melony what she really wanted to. She wanted to ask her so many things, but the main question that kept going in circles in her head was: are you okay? It might be a dumb question, but she wanted to ask it anyway.

Melony stared into her eyes. Oh, how Zola had missed her brown eyes. Once they were innocent and curious, now full of fear and weariness. Zola's hand tightened.

"Thank you," Melony said in an almost whisper-like tone.

Zola didn't get to say anything else. Trumpets went off and everyone around the table stood. Melony looked questioningly at Zola. Sighing, She stretched her hand out offering it to Melony for support. She didn't let her hand go.

Zola checked on Melony again, trying to see if there was any evidence of what she had gone through. There was nothing
