He pushed her , she fell out of the crystal, she was trembling in fear of what she just saw, she stare at her hand, there were bruises from Darius fingers. She knew it was real and he will come back for her, her body was shaking in fear. No, she can't let him have his way not this time. She can't die like that again, she have to prepare herself for the worst.
The memory of how he cut off her neck flashes right before her again and again
"No!" Cried out
She felt a someone behind her, it was Tyler. He grab her by the shoulder and shook her, he was yelling at her to snap out of the pain she is going through
"Ariana!!!"
She roughly push him away from her as she glare at him, he tried to approach her but the looks in her eyes made him flinch in fear
Could it be?
No!
He tried to read her memories but everything was blank, he wonder what was wrong with her, he tried to move a step closer to her buy she back away.
"Stop acting like you know me, cause you barely know me"
She is dying to hug him but couldn't because she had to pretend she doesn't remember the past, she has so many questions yet she can't ask any, she miss their friendship, she miss all the good time. She wonder where she could find their parent, now she understand why he hide the throne. It has a tragic memory of the past, so much blood and pain happen right there.
"Anne"
"My name is Ariana not Anne you crazy lunatic" walk away
Fine!
Since you are keeping the truth from me, I will also act like I don't know you my dear annoying brother, I deserve to know the truth but he is not telling me, what if by chance I ever come across Darius; I wouldn't have know him.
When leah heard her husband has arrived, she was excited, she went after him, but couldn't find him, she heard he was with Ariana but he wasn't in their quarters
I felt someone grab me around my waist, I knew who it was I smiled while leaning my head on his shoulder
"You are back"
"Did you miss me wife"
"I guess you miss Ariana more, I heard you rushed to meet her immediately you arrived. There has been so many whispers among the servants lately that she is your mistress"
"What?"
She turn around and hug him tightly around her. She was about to kiss him when he pull away from her
"I will be back wife"
"Bu...."
Before she could utter a word he vanish, what the hell has he become, why did he like disappearing
"Why are you cursing me?"
"Why did you keep following me like a stalker"
"Stalker?"
"St....." she didn't complete her statement when he grab her hand
"Who did this? Who the hell did this to you?"
"Nobody" pull away
Damn you Darius for leaving this mark on my hand
"Then I will punish all your maids"
"You won't do that"
He ignore her and was heading towards her chamber, she ran after him but when she got there, she could see all her maids kneeling, he was about to slap one of them when she got in the way
The pain she felt at that moment, can not be compared to the pain she felt when she find out the truth. She stare at his shock expression, he wanted to apologise but she run away. Leah heard what was happening from jean, she hurriedly went there but halt when she saw the expression on her husband's face.
"What's going on?" Worriedly
"I hurt Ariana, she was just here wife, what if she...." broke off
I could feel his fear, I know why he was trembling but I couldn't say a word to him instead I hug him tightly and remind him of his powers and strength, for a moment he forgot who he is. He is not the mortal prince Tyler of Airangon, I will do all I can to protect him even if he can't die.
"Ariana will be back" reassured him
"She will hate me wife, she definitely will" shakily as he stare at his hand
"No! She will NOT"
Tyler could sense his sister in danger, he let go of leah and vanish right before her eyes, she was already getting used to him disappearing whenever it involves Ariana.
That jerk!
How dare him think he can act like my brother?
How dare him think he can fool me
How dare him confuse me
Why is he getting mad at me ? when he is the one who is so secretive, he couldn't tell me th truth even when I ask.
Tyler you are so mean, I hate you!!!!
I couldn't concentrate in where I was going until I bumped into something hard, I was about to curse when I saw what was before me, I screamed in fear as I fall down, why am I so unlucky?
I have not gotten over my encounter with Darius and now, am facing a monster that is way too big.
The monster kept moving towards me and was ready to devour me but it stopped immediately when the wind started blowing. I was scared as hell, what am I going to do? The wind kept blowing harshly as the leaves from the trees kept falling, I couldn't see clearly, my eyes hurt from the wind.
Who is going to save me now?
My thought drift back to Tyler, I wonder why he was hiding the truth from me but I wish I could tell him I already knew the truth before I die. Falling down to the ground, I close my eyes and surrendered. I can't go on, I should have atleast stay with them even if am angry. I should have ask him to forgive my stupidity back then and even now.
Dear God, forgive me all my sins and accept my soul. I prayed while waiting to be devoured by the beast but nothing happened. I could feel it coming closer to me, I tighten my fist on the grass , waiting for death to take over but I didn't feel anything
"Are you giving up that easily?" Tearfully
I knew that voice, I could see how hurt he is, I didn't think twice, i ran towards him and hug him while crying. I wish i had the courage to tell him but I couldn't because I hate myself and I was the reason why he became like this. It was all my fault, I should have confide in him.
My beloved brother Tyler
It was all me, it was my fault. I should have listen to Keira, my beloved Keira. Only then will I be able to save everyone but I didn't. Keira, please be reincarnated, I will only forgive myself if only I can see your face once more
I couldn't stop crying at the thought of Keira who was my most loyal maid, she warned me about Darius but I wouldn't listen, I thought it was love, I thought he fall for my looks; I never knew it was the throne and Airangon he is after, I just can't believe how naive I was. My heart bled in pain at the thought of how I was brutally murdered by the man I thought I could love and who claim to love me.
"Are you alright?" He pull away from her
"Yes"
"You don't have to be afraid, you are safe now"
He held my hands and led me to his horse, he spoke a foreign language to the horse, he mount me on it and left, I was scared, I wanted to follow him but I couldn't, i feel too guilty to even look at him, not after everything i did.
I wanted to tell him how sorry I was, I wanted to confess everything to him and I also want to know how and where he got all these power from, could it be he is reincarnated? But then how about the throne? I have so many questions that i wanted to ask.
