He brought my hands to his lips, not taking his eyes off me. "Because I love you, Aliara. Only you and no one else," his voice was hoarse, I could feel the sincerity in it.
My heart almost exploded because of the mixed emotions and its fast beating. I close my eyes when he kisses the back of my palm again. This is it, I have heard what I want to hear, only me and no one else.
Tears dripped as I opened my eyes, tears of pleasure. I slowly released a smile.
He let go of hands and wiped my few tears with his fingers.
"Make sure what you are saying is not some sort of a lie, Sevasti." I didn't let him finish what he was doing and immediately put my arms around his neck.
He laughed because my voice was threatening, and he brought his hands to my waist and pulled me closer to him. He did not wait another moment and immediately sealed me with a kiss, a soft and gentle one. With that kiss, he made me feel that what he just said was not a lie, that hi
I LOOKED at my finger when he put the ring that was utterly familiar to my sight. My mouth slightly hung open as my eyes landed on his. I decided to meet him to say our plan to attack the discotheque again for the second time and I am to get him on our side. But even before I can speak a word, he slid the ring on my finger where it previously belonged."How did you find this ring?" I said with a slow and low voice, barely even audible for someone to hear. I am not sure of what I am saying. This is what I received from him the last time that I threw in the woods when I found him and Elana together. That is the reason why I am so confused right now that he gave me this ring again.He did not answer me. Instead, he lifted my hand that was on his gentle grip towards his lips. He was looking at me as he kissed it. I seemingly forgot my function to speak as I forgot the questions I had for him because of what he did. I was completely drowned in his eyes that spoke thousands
"I love you so much too." I moved my lips near his ear and whispered. "We can always do that at the right time," I said, teasing him. He tried to move away from me but I tightened my grip on him and hugged him as I laughed softly. If that was me, I knew I cannot hold back myself with that intensity in that situation. Good thing he was the one to regain his consciousness first. I put my chin over his shoulder when he snaked his arms on my waist. "I do not want it to be here," he said with a hoarse voice. My forehead knotted when I remembered what happened in the woods that time. If I had not regained my consciousness that time then we would have done it there. "Really? What about the thing we did in the woods last time?" I said, intently cutting my words. I smirked at him while staring at him when I faced him, never removing my arms that were snaked on him. His forehead creased, seemingly pissed about what I said. I can also see the expression
I WAS gasping for air as I swung my sword in the air to kill the last enemy that attacked me. Even if I am tired, I put a victorious smile on my face when I looked around and saw the result of our fight. The battle was still on-going but it is very obvious that we are the victor seeing that the enemies were out of force. It was minutes until we defeated them completely, I can already see it.I lifted my arms in the air when I saw Vivi flying towards me."The master is here! The master is here!" he said, that made me smile. He flew away again so I used my speed to go faster towards the back side of this place.There, I saw Sevasti who was waiting for my arrival. Idaho was on the ground, kneeling while his hands were stuck behind him with a special chain made to stop him from using his potential. His eyes were blindfolded as his mouth was gagged with a cloth so the words he could speak were incomprehensible. He was forcing himself to be free from the chain t
He nodded at me so I proceeded and walked towards the middle of the discotheque where I could see all of them. Before I could even make it past half my way through, arrows were sent in my direction causing it to rain on me. I quickly dropped Idaho on the ground, not minding the loud thud it made and the aching sound from his mouth. I took my sword rom its sheath and swung it fastly into the air, cutting the arrows before it even arrived on me.Some of my comrades went to where I stood and some went to the direction where the arrows were coming from. We continued fighting the arrows that were still coming. If we could not avoid it, we dodged it from the air.When the arrows stopped falling towards us, I walked towards Idaho who crawled his way to make distance from me."Fool," I said as I shook my head. He already knew the ending of this battle but he was still insisting to escape. I am convinced that this man was a real fool.Before I could even lay my ha
THE SUN was about to rise.We had seen the sun rise as we reached home from the long journey we took last night. Even if we were all tired from fighting all night long, none of us protested about it and that was what I liked about them. We brought five horses with us, three of them were pulling a cart. Two were for the children who were with us and one for the weapons that we used.I mounted one of the horses while the other one was pulled by Matias who walked beside me. Behind us were our comrades who followed us, walking on their own two feet. I looked at the sky where the darkness was being conquered by the light of the sun as I heard the laughter of the children with their chirpy little voices, some of them were playing with Vivi. Perhaps they were delighted with the way he spoke. Screechy and repeated.I halted the horse that I am riding when I noticed a black smoke coming from the place where the palace was located, where we resided for the past five years
"By the time I face him, I am certain that I will hurt him to the hilts until he wishes that I just killed him instead of that," I said, clenching my jaws."We needed to save them right this instant. They might do something bad to them if we do not show up there as soon as we can, Princess," said Matias that was immediately agreed upon by our other comrades."If they try to harm even one of them, those bastard of a Vedantes will taste my wrath, I swear on my Father's name." I heaved a long and deep sigh to calm my raging nerves, feeling the anger half as I felt with Hencio. "Let us start preparing for that. Is there anyone here who wants to join me?" I asked the men I was with in this room.They were experienced in fighting too but I did not take them with me in Farianio because there were too many of us and I know for sure that we will win. Perhaps there were a number of Verdanes who went here, the reason why they got defeated. With that in mind, I have to brin
I PUT down my hood when I finally reached near one of the markets here in Farianio. I commanded Vivi to tell him I am here and I will wait for him outside the palace.Even if we had defeated the enemies last night, I was still walking with all carefulness, watching the surrounding and staying alert because I do not know who was the enemy nor the ally on this land. Also, this is the territory of that bastard named Hencio. I know that I am slowly being on his watch now that I am making my move. I must not trust anyone that easily on this land. It will not be long until he thought of commanding someone to kill me with the likes of his loyal dog, Favier, like the last time.I smiled when I caught a glimpse of him in the distance. He was outside the palace, seemingly waiting for me. I cannot help but stare at his being because of his elegant looks as he stood there with an ethical posture. His fancy and stylish clothes even highlighted his handsome face.But even bef
I LOOKED around the area when we arrived at their territory. I immediately went down the horse I am riding so as my comrades. We prepared ourselves and sharpened our senses as we felt the surroundings. There was none to welcome us at the entrance, so we were thinking that they had something prepared to give us a warm greeting for our arrival.There were just a few of us that were seen because the others were hidden in their respective places, they would only show themselves in a particular situation. I signale Matias to precede on entering the place first which he heed quickly in silence. When he sensed no harm in the area, he nodded at us, signaling for us to come and follow him as the place was safe.When we finally entered the Verdantes' premises, we were welcomed with our comrades who were kneeled on the ground with their hands and feet tied, bruisingly tight. Even their mouths were with gags so they cannot make a sound just like what we saw at the palace when we c
