Both of them looks surprise when their eyes met mine. The woman closed and locked the door before calling Mathias to come, near them.
"What's with her?" I heard her whispered when Mathias went closer.
I saw Mathias shrugs his shoulder and turn his gaze on me before he led his mother inside the vacant space.
The unknown man went to the sink and poured a water on his cup before he proceeds to talk.
"Mariano knows that you're here, but Jeneva doesn't know about it. Mariano doesn't want his sister to get closer to you, you know that her daughter was dead right? She might be mistaking you as her daughter."
This man is Jake, the man that Jeneva was talking about.
Well, it's better. I wouldn't bother thinking that someone's life is in danger because of me, I wouldn't want to add more ins
"Lastly, tell your Son that even if he values the lives of the people, it doesn't mean that they're alive. Others may look alive on the outside but deep inside they're dying, painfully." Mathias was about to open the door when suddenly he heard the words from the little girl he just saved. "because even if you saved that one person, if living means dying to them....then it's useless." He closed his eyes firmly and turn his head on his mother who heard it as well. He shrugged off his thoughts and opened the door witnessing the empty seat of Finesia and Jake's emotionless face. "Where is she?" he asked. Jake didn't respond, he stood up for a moment before looking at Mathias's direction. "She left, " he simply answered. Mathias surprisingly gritted his teeth and clenched his fists before attacking his father. He couldn't believe that she just left without telling him, he knows that he was a bit
My eyes followed him, preparing the bowl of soup and lifted the spoon on my mouth's direction.His eyes were totally focused on me, waiting for my mouth to open widely.These past few days, he was always watching me and taking care of me. I do not understand why, I've been thinking that he's somewhat guilty of the harsh words he said but it doesn't mean that he's going to go overboard with his actions.He looks like an owner taking care of his sick pet.My vision tells me nothing, I cannot see anything from him. My vision keeps betraying me since the day I opened my eyes, it was blurry and I cannot see any truth or lies from him.He was the same as Leonardo, that guy whom I've been wanting to see.I shouldn't trust any human, but here I am, lying on the bed feeling harmless.I slowly opened my mouth and I saw how his eyes moved, a glimpse of beam was shown on his eyes.I don
"Finesia?"I turn my gaze on Griselda who just came out from the house carrying a bag of herbs. She looks worried when her eyes darted on me, I was cleaning the barn.It's already been a month since I stayed here with them. Jake doesn't look like he was bothered by my presence, it doesn't mean that he trust me though.They are humans so I understand him very much because I am threat myself, it was hard for me to trust them too not until I was convinced that they aren't harm to me."I told you not to clean the barn, you'll get dirty and your hands will get rough."She pulled me up and shook my clothes that got dirty because of the dirt from the horses.Mathias came out from the house with his annoying expression, but it calmed when his eyes moved on my direction."I'll go hunt, wanna come?" he asked making me burst an excitement.I ran towards him and followed his back. I was getti
The loud growl of the Darkrai burst on the dark forest making the knights trembles on their feet."Calm down Gray, there's still next time. You're going to see her next time," the man said, the highest among the Aristocrats, the Emperor of Corceigea.Horror was seen on the knights eyes when the Emperor cut off the head of the knight he ordered to guard the lady.He didn't know that there was a disciple inside the house, he thought that it would be easier for him to get the daughter of God especially when she's living with ordinary humans, that was his thought.Disciples are known to be a soul from God's divinity, they are born from the hearts of the Dragon that's why they are able to fill their souls inside a vessel.He didn't know that the man named Mathias was no longer human, but a vessel. He was sure that the soul inside was from the God himself, it was powerful
"Come on, show me."Griselda shuddered with horror thinking that there's no way she can escape the mountain alive especially in the hands of the Emperor, the ruthless among the rulers.Jake tried to fight them, but even his sword couldn't go against the knights. There's no escape for them, they can only pray for themselves to be saved by the God."Hmm? Don't wanna tell? It's just a simple question though, where is she? Where's Finesia? How come you're trembling when I'm just asking a question?" he asked with his baritone tone."Your majesty, have mercy on us. Please kill me instead of killing my wife, she doesn't have to do with this. I was at fault," Mariano pleads.The Emperor looked down on him like he was seeing a rat begging for a leftovers."That's too sweet, I wanna be like that too. Saving your love from death, but how could I even grasp such romance when you
15 years later, Central Capital of Corceigea Empire...The horns started to make noise when the large troupe of the knights entered the entrance of the Central capital. The people welcomed the knights with their smiles and congratulations for the victory of the war between the Corceigea and Anaraya Empire.Servants and nobles are caught, they were marching with their bodies imprisoned by the long thick chains.When the knights arrived at the entrance gate of the Corceigea Palace, the Emperor was there, leaning against the gate while holding his sword.They bended their knees simultaneously and greeted the Emperor."It's been a while captain Rosell," the Emperor said.The captain bowed. "We caught around six nobles from the Anaraya your Majesty, we also dragged the servants who can be used as a slave.""Hmm
Leonardo woke up with Finesia on his arms, he stared at her with his thought of 'was it a dream?' and remembered that it wasn't because he felt how numb his arm was because of Finesia's head resting on his arm.He stared longer until he decided to get up. The Butler came with his startled face moving his eyes on Finesia who was in her deep sleep."Your Majesty?" he asked with his mouth left opened.Leonardo grinned. "Prepare the dining area, I would like to have my breakfast with her."The Butler who wasn't even able to analyze his thoughts nodded and left with his face unable to figure out what sort of emotion he would make.Upon arriving at the kitchen, his thoughts combined and realized that the Emperor who doesn't have any concubines for about two hundred years has a woman and worst, the woman was sleeping on the Emperor's bed without worries.He shook of his worries and ordered the
"I've got something to say your Majesty," Duke Salvador said.He remained after the nobles left when the meeting ended.Leonardo's eyebrows furrowed while stroking Finesia's head who was sitting on his lap. Finesia moved his eyes on the Duke's direction before going back to Leonardo."What is it?" Leonardo asked.He coughed before he spoke. "It might be very rude to ask, but what is this young lady to you your Highness? I've been with you since I was born and neither I could think that you would have your concubine."Leonardo's lips moved before he grinned. Duke Salvador has been loyal to him since then, from his grandfather until to him.There's no way that Duke Salvador would go against him."She's going to be my wife," he answered casually.Duke Salvador flinched for a bit before he sighed. "You've been alone on your rein your Majesty so I won't barge in, but let me tell you an
━14 years before... "Mathias let me ride on your back please," I said while pouting.My feet looks swollen since we've been walking in this forest for about three hours.He stopped before he turned around wearing a bored expression. "You're becoming a child now Finesia." He turned his back from me before lowering down his body.I smiled and ride on his back. My arms were wrapped around his neck while I rest my head on his left shoulder."Where are we going?" I asked.He started walking while carrying me on his back. "We're going to find a shelter, it's getting dark," he answered.We've been like this since then, moving in each and every destination to find our food and shelter.It was for our survival, to strive hard to earn our surviv
