Sneak peek "Impulsive" [Pov Hayden/BloodLegacies]
🕑 Added 2025-10-27 01:38:55 +0000 UTC"You'd better behave." His/Her father spoke, his gaze on the mirror while he read from a sheet. Business? Problems? A text to rehearse his speech before everyone? Hayden doesn't know, nor did he/she bother to peek.
He/She sighs, running a hand over her/his face in exasperation. "I know." His/her father didn't need to remind him/her; Cecilia had already done that when she passed by his room three times within the half-hour before they left for the ball. Not that it had much effect. His/Her father didn't trust him/her not at all. And it wouldn't be good behavior at the ball that would change his mind overnight.
"You know?" His/Her father looks at him/her over his shoulder. "After escaping the castle and causing that commotion? No. You don't seem to know, or you ignore it on purpose. The guards aren't there for nothing, Hayden. Stop acting like a child."
Hayden almost laughs but restrains himself, pressing his/her lips together. Of course not, it's not like he/she's had a chance to be one since her/his mother and sister were gone. He/She is the heir/res; there's no time to be innocent or carefree. Not if it depended on his/her father, at least.
Hayden looks at his/her father, pressing his /her elbows into the soft bed and rising up a little. "And if I behave, then what?"
His/Her father doesn't answer the question, just shifts his gaze back to the mirror, while the servant fastens the brooch to his chest. Hayden can understand why he came to Hayden's room to finish dressing. A way to keep an eye on him/her, and also to give the impression that he is discussing matters with the heir/res. That or another reason Hayden still doesn't understand. Maybe to annoy him/her with his presence and voice? It's working, so far. "Your sister would know what."
Hayden clenches his/her jaw hard enough to make a sound. His/her father hears it, of course. Elemental senses, which is why he/she raises an eyebrow, as if Hayden's clenched jaw was just the futile complaint of an insolent child. "I imagine. Which one of them?"

Hayden...My MC wants to hug him. But MC and I are still a little mad at him for flirting at the Ball with someone that isn't my MC. xD
