SAVE ME

Eren and Anglassia sat on the floor with their legs crossed and hands on their laps as Dennis and Ciara who were seated across from them, looked at them sternly with hands crossed.

“So you are telling us that Eren is your mate” Ciara said.

Anglassia nodded her head slowly “Yes”

“Are you insane? And you rejected him for 8 years!” Ciara scolded hitting Anglassia.

“Mom!”

Ciara turned to face Eren”You must have really loved Anglassia to still have feelings for her after 8 years”

Eren smiled shyly”I guess so”

“So was anything the matter yesterday?”Dennis asked.

Eren’s smiled suddenly faded”I would have to be going back today”

“Why?”Ciara asked.

“Something happened to Alexa”

“Oh, my. What is it?”Ciara exclaimed in shock.

Eren shook his head”I don’t know yet but you know just how much Alexa is family to us”

Dennis nodded his head”Yes, then you should start leaving now. You know it’s a long run from here back to the lands”

Eren stood up from the ground as he bowed down “Then Father, Mother. I’ll take my leave now”Eren turned to face Anglassia as he squeezed her hands “Take care of yourself”

He hurriedly turned around as he ran out of the house.

He’d just taken few steps away from the house when he heard someone calling his name.

“Eren! Eren!”

He turned around to see Anglassia running towards him.

“Glaze, what is it?”

“I want to go with you”

“But-”

“I haven’t really been fond of Alexa but seeing how much she means to you, I want to go too”

Eren embraced Anglassia”Thank you”. He then refrained from her as he took her hands “Now let’s go”.

And hand in hand, they took off running.

Back in the heart of the Ava land, Laura refrained from Kendall.

Kendall brought her over to a small chair and brought her a glass of warm milk. “Here”

Laura looked at Kendall angrily. “Just because I hugged you, doesn’t mean I’ve forgiven you. Tell me, if you were alive all these while why did you never come for me!?”

Kendall sat across the chair from her.”You have every right to be angry at me. I’m even angry at myself.” Kendall intertwined his fingers “I didn’t even know that I had a daughter”

Laura’s eyes bulged”What?”

Kendall slowly teared up”Forgive me, please”

“Explain everything to me. I don’t understand a word you are saying!”Laura shouted.

Kendall took in deep breaths as he journey through his painful past once more.

“When I was young I really loved your mother, Josephine. She was my everything and I was more than content with only her but she wasn’t.

“We tried years after years to have a child but it was to no avail. I told Josephine that we should stop trying since she was hurting but she wouldn’t listen.

“Then one day, she brought up this absurd idea that I should marry another. At first, I was so furious that I turned down the idea but after much pressure, I gave in to her wishes.

“I married Martha, a silver- eyed witch and after our first night tighter, she took in.

“I excitedly told Josephine the news but she suddenly seemed angry. She kept on pushing me away and told me to stay away from her till the delivery of the baby.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“I didn’t know back then that Josephine had other plans”Kendall looked up at Laura.

Even though he couldn’t see her, he could hear her crying”To cut the story short…”

“Continue, don’t skip any parts”Laura said sternly.

“On the day of Martha’s delivery, I had work to do so I’d quickly attempted to it and had rushed home but on getting home, I found Martha dead.

“Before I could act fast, Josephine had stabbed my eyes with a knife. I tried to pull out the knife but quicker than my next breathe, the police had surrounded me.

“On getting to court, they’d charged me guilty of killing Martha as my fingerprint were all over the knife that had killed her.

“I was jailed and sentence to be banned because according to the law made by King Abel II, any man who causes harm upon any woman is to be banned.

“But Queen Gezelle had saved me and had kept me hidden here for so many years.” Kendall held Laura’s hand in tears “Believe me, I didn’t know you were alive”

“So my real mother… is dead?”Laura asked breathing heavily.

Things made sense to her now. The real reason why Josephine never showed her any ounce of love was because she wasn’t her daughter and to make matters worse, she’d killed her mother.

Laura placed her hands over Kendall’s. “Will you do anything for my forgiveness?”

“Anything”Kendall said all so suddenly.

Laura smirked “Let’s take our revenge on Josephine”.

She’d separated her from not only her father but her mother too.

She promise to make her pay for all her sins.

Staggering into the realm, Alexa felt like her world had crumbled.

Damien had let go off her. Everything was over now.

When she got into her room, she saw Karina and Celine who had been eagerly waiting for her.

“Where have you been, Alexa?”Celine asked sternly

Alexa scanned around”Is Hermenes back?”

“Alexa, Hermenes not here”Karina said slowly.

Did Queen Gezelle lie about returning back her brother? Alexa thought.

A loud scream was heard atthe corridor as the three girls rushed outside.

They saw Hermenes on the ground bleeding profusely with an injured leg.

“Hermenes! Hermenes!” Alexa called out to him as she raised him up to his feet and took him to Rosa’s hospital.

When they got in, the hospital was empty.

“Rosa! Rosa!” Alexa cried out in tears. Why was no one here?.

Never mind, she would treat him herself.

She placed Hermenes on the bed as she scattered everywhere looking for a first aid kit.

She stopped hos bleeding from his leg and dressed his wound.

“Stay with me, Hermenes” she said in tears.

“What did you do, Alexa?” Hermenes asked breathing heavily. “Why did she suddenly let me go?”

“You don’t have to worry about anything, Hermenes. Everything is back to the way they were, okay? I finally left Damien and we’ll be -”

Hermenes eyes widened”You left him?”

“Yes, but it doesn’t matter and you really shouldn’t be talking to much Hermenes”

“Alexa, I know I didn’t like him much but I wanted you to be happy. You shouldn’t have left him.”

“And what did you suggest I do huh!?”Alexa shouted as uncontrollable years streamed down her cheeks “No one wanted us to be together and everything seemed wrong with him. Should I just had let you die!?”

Alexa stood up from Hermenes side as she wiped her cheeks”Get some rest, Hermenes and when you want to talk about something else, you know where to find me”

With that said she turned around to leave as Nurse Rosa stepped in.

“I’m so sorry for coming lat-”

“He’s all yours, Nurse Rosa. Please take care of him”Alexa then left the hospital without looking back.
