Chapter 21 - Them

Everything rushed in my mind at the same time. I could not think clearly, all the evil I had done, all the sufferings I had been through, all the pain, was all at once whispering and spinning my brain.And I'm running out of breath.I'm in the middle of thick bushes, trees that are source of oxygen but I'm running out of breath. I held on to a tree to support myself not to fall. I massage my chest to calm and manage my breathing."Let it out." Chrysler said.Chrysler was there. He lend me his hands and helped me to stand up. He cupped my face with his bare hands and wiped my tears away."Shh, look at me. Let it out, don't stop your crying more painfully." He smiled and shook me gently."I — I'm fine," I sobbed."No you are not. Come here, come on," He said and let me rest in his chest. I felt his hands rubbing my hair. "Shhh, It's okay. It's all right. Everything's gonna be fine." He said comforting me.And for the mean time, I spit out half of my pain. It was only halfway there but

Chapter 22 - Crazy

It's almost four in the afternoon and we only have one stone found. Unbelievably, a day have passed and we've been doing the same routine. But the wild is really huge and the stones are hard to find. I even wonder if we're able to see another one. Really, I think it'll take us a month before we complete the stones. We've been searching nonstop. We'll only stop for a minute to eat and then we'll continue again. I have not heard anything from the Prince — yes, we're always together, what I mean is I've not heard any words from him since that day. I don't blame him, in fact I reflected with my actions and I swear to be respectful with his decision this time around.Incredible, the Echelons are not ever tired when I'm almost drained. We didn’t stop searching, I also didn’t use my ability much because their abilities were more equipped than mine. The map was given to me but that wasn't enough to keep me from getting lost so Chrysler gave me his compass in case we split up."It's already fo

Chapter 23 - Must Protect

I rolled my eyes when I saw how Chrysler's lips curved. He is now smirking at me. It's evident, he's happy, he likes it, fooling around with me. This jerk is starting to get on my nerves, nevertheless, it's not that I'm getting real mad at him."Because I want you to be my friend, that's what I mean." He added to his confusing words and smiled mischievously. I rolled my eyes, what a total jerk. I took a deep breath and laughed at him as well to ease my awkwardness.Jerk."Stop fooling with me Chrysler." I said and rolled my eyes once again. How many times have I rolled my eyes already?"Wow, it's so nice hearing you talking casual to me."I suddenly became quiet. Right, they're the highest echelons. I still need to respect them at any situation."I like that, keep talking to me like that. Talk to me like we're old friends, talk to me like we're having an intimate relationship..." he suddenly stopped amidst talking.I raised an eyebrow and looked at him with an annoyed expression. He'

Chapter 24 - Danger Dagger

series of loud crashes thundered the wilds giving me a shock. I was awakened all of a sudden by the booming sounds. When I woke up, I realized I was alone in the dark inside a small tent made by the male echelons. "Shit, did they leave me?" I panicked, who would not? I have no idea what to do here without them. Nathalia and Corinthians have been with me lately, so now that they're not with me I feel so alone. I squinted my eyes, the surroundings were dark and I was really alone. "Prince Zavan?" I stood up, I even jumped more to make sure I was awake. And when I made sure I was awake, I nervously stepped out of the little tent I had just slept in. "Did the prince left me?" I suddenly asked as if I'm talking to somebody. I roamed my eyes, there was really no one. I hope this is just a dream. Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t, they left me! I have to chase them! I have to look for the Prince. Why did I even fall asleep at times like this? When I need to sleep I can't, but when I need to be so active

Chapter 25 - Saving Him

AT would you do if the people who caused you to fight were suddenly the people who's going against you? This situation is so hard for me. Never in my life I'd thought that this situation will happen unknowingly. I joined the search to feed my grandmother and take the homeless people out in the first district. And I don't know what I would do anymore when I saw Marcus with the paupers earlier. Why would Zandrus take the poor of the First District? Could he have known that's where I came from and this is my weakness?But there is only one I hold on to. Marcus is here to pick me up and not to harm my companions. I’ve been with these persons for a short period of time but I can’t forgive myself when something bad happens to them."Hey naive girl, are you okay?" The prince asked me. I was a little surprised when I looked back at him because he seemed to have been watching me for a while."Is all our equipment poisonous?" I asked instead. In the middle of the dark and cold night we walk awa

Chapter 26 - Kiss

'ZAVAN!' I gasped even more after I remembered the things my grandmother had told me. After all it was fairytale to me back then, I didn't know that such fairytale exist in a harder situation and unexpected time. Though short of breath, I dive into the very deep water and strained to reach Zavan.Time became slow, Zavan became even more difficult to reach. It was unconscious as he was being carried by two mermaids who's constantly moving away from me. Good thing I brought my weapons with me. Though with great difficulty, I took a bow and pointed it at a siren.I aimed my bow and arrow. The movement of the arrow under the water was slow, but the red liquid filled the mermaid after I hit it. They also have blood. The other mermaid seemed to be scared so it swam away from me. Before it could call some of its companions, I took that opportunity to pick up the unconscious Prince.If I'm an opportunist, this would be history. Who would have thought that a beggar like mine would save a resp

Chapter 27 - Hug

"Why aren't you talking?"I don’t know what I’m going to do at this time. The former intense feeling I feel when I am with the Prince seems to have increased even more. I didn't expect him to kiss me especially three more times, so I'm almost ignoring him."I'm talking to you, why aren't you talking to me?" Said the Prince. I was surprised when he suddenly appeared in front of me with a frown. "You've been like this since I kissed you, what's wrong?" he questioned. I immediately looked away. Doesn't he know how to say things slowly? I was even more embarrassed because he seemed to remind me of that thing."Are you shy?" He asked once again. Instead of answering him, I continued walking and passed him. I can't talk to the Prince now, shame engulfs me.Why did that even happen?"Are you gonna keep ignoring me?" Please Zavan, my heart is pounding. Get away from me or I'll explode in embarrassment.I accelerated my walk even more. But his steps were so much bigger than mine that I didn'

Chapter 28 - His Smile

ZAVAN closed his eyes.From behind I could see the snake approaching quickly. Zavan was still clinging as the head of the huge snake slowly approached us."Z-zavan!" I whispered. But he still closed his eyes, I was a little nervous to see that we were surrounded by a huge snake. It looks like it intends to squeeze us after eating."Zavan? Zavan what are you doing?" I was nervous to even talk. He didn’t respond, instead he held my hand tightly making sure I wouldn’t let go of him.I cried out in shock when suddenly a sharp lightning drew in the sky. The sky was not dark, there was no warning of rain, but sharp and successive lightning flashes continued to create noise through thunder.Is the Prince doing this?I don’t know what Zavan’s plan is but I trust him. I followed the snake's gaze. The snake's head stopped behind me, literally raising my hairs for fear of suddenly opening its enlarged mouth. The dazzling lightning again created a deafening sound."Zavan!" I whispered loudly. I d

Chapter 29 - His Name

BEAUTIFUL moments happens in an unexpected time and place. It never occurred to me that I would speak to a nobleman, nor did I ever dream that I would speak to a prince. Everything happening now is far from my expectations, but I can’t deny I like what’s happening now as well.The prince and I continued to look for the remaining stones. What has changed is that my relationship with the prince has become easier and I am now talking to him casually. Though I’m still a bit shy, that no longer caused me to avoid the prince again."Chrysler gave me a signal. He and Nathalia found two stones, same with Greyson. Corinthians got injured so he can only find one more stone. All in all I have the perception that we're going to win this search." The prince said in the middle of our walk."I haven't found anything yet."Zavan looked at me."Well, you can always have my precious stones." He said. I shook in response, "You worked hard on that, I'll find it too. I won't stop." I replied instead."We

Chapter 30 - Feelings

I WAS IMPRESSED by the Prince's unique name. Not only is his name just Zavan, his name is also unique like him.That case sounded feminine to me."Don't you dare take anything from anyone aside from me." Poor Prince threatening me. I simply turned to him while smiling.Is he jealous? I hid Zavan's compass in my pocket. After a few minutes of waiting Greyson arrived while cuddling Corinthians."Where is Nathalia? Don't they have a Chrysler yet? Corinthians' wound needs to be treated right away." Greyson was worried after dropping the bloody Corinthians.We immediately approached them. I support Corinthians to sit properly. I saw the cut on her leg and I felt how painful it was. It can kill someone without training. That is why it is amazing what they went through and trained in the past to cope with this situation today. The cut came from above Corinthians' left knee down to her leg. It was long and big, it would fit my hand if I put it in there. And the more I see that the more I feel
