Ch-44
Maximus also wanted to refute her but he knew he has to shut his mouth in her presence. But she wondered if Zaros and Eudora were fools. Like seriously one should know that they should shut their mouth when they are in other people's territory. And especially talking with a witch is the hardest thing. If their words provoked the witch then it would be a bad thing. She may place a curse or let them suffer. This wasn't good.
Do they think they were invincible?
These vampires….
These Vampires were dead people. He knew it but now he knew their brains were dead too.
And from Adira's actions, he could say there was something wrong with this man. He needs to be varied and get to know what's happening with them. Maximus was in a relationship and was married once. He knew how relationships work. He could see the awkwardness and the disturbances between them.
Elphaba raised a brow at Zaros before chuckling.
"Since, you want to know… I will tell you. You are a blind man who couldn't see the truth and hates the victim. And now again for your selfishness, you are creating another victim not knowing what the future beholds. Use your brain not fangs," Elphaba said with her narrowed eyes.
Zaros was shocked when he heard her words. It's as if she knew everything about him. She's right. He blamed his sister and now he's trying to use Adira.
Was he wrong all the time?
He heard about Glory Witches. Their legacy, their words, their magic, and their skills were always top-notch. Their words always come true. There were rumors which said that they were the first witches in the world. And they were never born but were created by the natural circumstances of nature. They say nature was always in favor of them. Displeasing them was equal to displeasing nature.
Was he wrong with everything all this time? He confirmed his sister was a victim. It means it's time for him to do the real investigation from the start and find justice for his both sisters. As the realization hit him, he felt an immense amount of guilt hovering over his body and heart.
The Vampire elders were shocked at her audacity. She called their king a blind man. But no one has the guts to say a thing against this witch. There were stories about these Glory witches that run around the world. Few even said they no longer exist anymore but here she was waiting for them, mocking them and yet surprising them.
Elphaba smirked at him and turned her head towards Maximus.
"Use brain along with the heart. A heart makes you ignore things but the brain doesn't," Elphaba said and turned her head.
Maximus couldn't understand what does she mean. She was asking him to be practical. But he was being that way. She mentioned this to him as if she was reminding him something to not get into trouble. Looks like there was something happening here.
Unlike earlier, everyone heard the words she said to men. Elphaba didn't want to cast a spell to make others unable to hear things that she said to men. In her opinion men weren't worthy of her magic and her energy.
Real people knew to maintain silence when they heard these things. Passing out witches' words was equal to creating a death sentence. But it doesn't eliminate the possibility of them decoding her words and then making plans to destroy the person. Well… Elphaba would be glad if all the men rot in hell. In the meantime, she has to bear the for the sake of nature and balance. The world runs on positive and negative things. Men are described as negative which were dark creatures. While females are described as positive which were bright creatures. As the child of nature, she can't put her parents who were nature, in trouble.
"Now everyone, leave, except the brides and bride mothers," Elphaba said.

Author's Notes:
Just a random chatter. If you are in a relationship please brain along with your feelings. My friend has a bad relationship. She was in that toxic one for three or four years. She knew he was cheating on her yet stayed for the sake of the relationship. Don't forget to use your brain along with your heart. You are precious and deserve the best in life. ^_^
Wish you a happy life.
Love
