Chapter 63
As soon as they stepped in the hall way, Andreas took a hold of Eleanor's hand and began to lead her away, not caring who saw them. With the thrill of the dance wearing off, Eleanor felt tiredness begin to seep into her with renewed frevor. They got into the room and Andreas turned to face her.
"I'm not mad at you.""Oh... You aren't?""No."There came her pixie smile."I loved how you painted your mom. She is so beautiful. I don't regret seeing your paintings."He hummed and sat on the bed."You have such talent! I can't even begin to explain," she spoke animatedly. "Remember the drawing I made of you when we were at the Lake?"He nodded once."I'll pay you to never show it to anyone."He rose an amused brow. "Why?""Are you joking?! It's an eye sore!"He chuckled but said nothing.She walked to him and deposit herself in his lap."You sit on me like you have every right to."She looked up at him.... BlinkedRelated chapters

The first thing she felt was surprise, before registering that it was an arm around her neck. An arm that was choking her and pulling her away.Panic and fight flared up at the same time as she began to hit at the arm, while at the same time, trying to breathe. Stumbling backwards, she stepped on a foot and instantly sent her heel into something. It made enough contact to hurt because a hiss was heard but the choke hold didn't loosen up. Where was she being pulled to? She suddenly reached back, blindly grabbed a head and shoved her thumbs in the closet things they could reach.His eyes.The male behind her yelled and let her go. She began to run but her hair was suddenly yanked back harshly. Did he have four eyes!? As he pulled her along the floor, she yelled and thrashed, hoping someone would hear her but it was all to no avail. Against her fight, she was pulled into a room and the door was shut. As soon as he let her go, she turned and swung a hard punch, conn

Andreas heard Eleanor's scream and his overwhelming worry was enough to trigger the wizard blood within him for the first time. He teleported.He saw Garion running right towards him.With a bloody body in his arms.She wasn't.... That couldn't be his Bella. It didn't look like her.... The face.... That shouldn't be his Bella!Andreas stopped breathing. Garion was talking to him but he wasn't listening. As Andreas retreated, Kolan came forward.He smelt Vydes powder and roared.Andreas' dragon side, Anariah, stormed forward and lowly said,"Get the balm for Vydes powder." And turned away.Garion was almost glued to the floor in stupified shock. Anariah almost never came forward. He was there.... Always... But he almost never came forward... Till now. That could only mean one thing. He turned and sped away.Anariah took her to the room and gently laid her on the bed. The smell of the poison was strong. Vydes powder was gotten f

The moment she stirred, Andreas jolted awake."Bella-""Sorry, I was just trying move my hand."He adjusted them and felt at a loss when she instantly sat up."Bella-""I have been awake for about two hours.""What?"She looked back and laughed at the look on his face."I slept for only a little while," shestood and almost fell, but caught herself in time. Andreas was bounding off the bed when Eleanor rose a hand to stop him."No, no, I'm fine. Just trying to get used to my legs again.""Let me help you.""No, i-"He was already beside her, holding her hand. She sighed, looked up at him and said,"Fine, but only three to and fro's before letting me go on my own, okay?"He could put his foot down..... But he didn't.He nodded. She counted every to and fro, then smiled at him when the third one passed. He sat and watched her walk slowly."It's almost like I forgot how to walk." She chuckled.

A smile passed from one woman to another. A smile of pride and adoration. It was like time had slowed down because in that moment and at that time, she felt something take seat within her.It was a padlock, locking unto her heart.'Wisdom lacked by many...' she heard in her head.'Anna....' was all she could whisper, before feeling the heat of Alexandra's wielded flame on her bare skin. Keeping quiet wasn't an option. She screamed, but held tightly unto that part of her that wanted to lash out. This wasn't a battle that fists and slaps could settle.It went deeper.So much deeper.Eleanor was being burnt alive, yet, death didn't appear. She felt it all. Every poisonous flame Alexandra was able to wield.... The heat of her scorn.... The pain in Alexandra.... How she felt maltreated and overlooked.... How she felt guilty, yet justified. How she felt lost and possessed.... How she felt defeated.Alexandra finally lowered her

Later that night, they were sat on the front porch, entwined in each other and both deep in thought when Eleanor asked,"Andreas?"He hummed."How are you half french and Irish and Italian, when you are from another realm?""In my realm, there are different languages that differentiate species. It wasn't till my line came here that we realized that for every language we speak, your realm has it too. Only difference is the name of the languages. We found out that our particular language, is Irish.""Wolves speak Irish in your realm?""Yes. My grandfather came, visited Ireland, then went to Italy. He fell in love with the language and decided to claim the country. That was what I meant by migrated. His dragon was only too happy."She turned to face him."So, all dragons in your realm speak Italian?""Yes.""Since you have all the species.... It means you speak all languages?"He nodded.She tilted her head to the side. "All o

Eleanor looked up ahead and saw Jalta and her henchman approaching, dragging a haggard looking Antana behind. From the way she looked, something wasn't right."What did you do to her?""Nothing much."Her henchman pulled Antana forward and struck her across the face.All Antana did was look up at him with weak eyes.Turning red with anger, Eleanor rose her hand and shot out at him. He had no choice but to drop her as pain locked him in a choke hold. Out the corner of her eye, she saw Nick run in and rush straight to his mother but she didn't take her eyes off Jalta. Jalta roared and shot fire out at Eleanor.While Jochelo panicked and yelled her name, Eleanor conjured up a shield around them all.Fire against pulsing electricity. Klitanis snarled at Jalta and seeing him, Jalta's enraged face paled in fear."Let him go!" She yelled at Eleanor."Lower your fire," Eleanor spoke casually.Jalta huffed and puffed, obviously disagree

As she trudged through the wet forest to his place, her mind ran amok with thoughts. She'd tried calling him but his line was switched off. Had he maybe gone to the shop to see Anna, then met Daphne and decided to stay and talk? Was that what the text meant? Though she felt cold and wet from the drizzles of the rain, she pushed through and kept trudging. Upon getting to his place, she went up the porch stairs, shook off whatever water droplets she could from her skin, and knocked.No response.She shuddered as the cold breeze kissed her wet body and knocked again.Still no response. Maybe he really wasn't home. Deciding to ensure, she placed her thumb on the scanner and the door flipped open. She walked into the dark living room and looked around.No sign of him.Next stop, Anna's shop.She was making her way to the door when she heard a noise.She stopped and quietened, listening intently. When she heard nothing, she concluded that it

2 WEEKS LATEREleanor took a deep breath as she stood on the porch, looking all around her. The last two weeks had been tough.Very tough.Anna had come to see her and knowing Anna, she knew everything already. Nick and Anthony came visiting too, to make sure she was 'okay'. Andreas had also showed up a few times, begging her to hear him out, but she'd refused to open the door. Once upon a time, she'd feared that he wouldn't have felt the same way.Now, she feared that she'd look at him and remember everything.It was hard enough living with dreams that refused to leave her alone, and waking up to the emptiness that served as a reminder of her heartache. It always hurt her everytime she heard his pleading voice, but she just couldn't bring herself to open the door, and try as she might, she couldn't stop feeling his feelings.He wasn't pushing it to her, and she knew it- well, it was him, but not him.
