207 The Golden Thread Spell
Xavier couldn’t believe what he was just hearing from her. A frown ca into his eyes and he looks at her beloved with curiosity.
“Wait, so you know that Justice is going to get attacked, but you let go outside, making him vulnerable.” He let out a sigh. “Anne, what did you do?!”
“Look, I know that wasn’t very logical and risky, but I will never have tangible proof of whoever the one that was trying to kill Justice.” Said Anne in her calm manner, although deep down she was terrified, and panic sets in when she thought the killer had already gotten into Justice.
Xavier’s scoffed. He shakes his head, still in disbelief, “Oh God! I don’t have any words for how disappointed I was with your action.” His eyes look at her with adoration and also anger. “You can just inform and we could do your plan together!”
“I was trying to tell you. Rember when you accompany to the kitchen? I tried… but I guess it was a bit too late.” Said Anne, with a guilty grin on her face.
“You think?! Thankfully, we ca running on ti. But what if it’s not?” He tried to make sense of her decision, he really does, but his disappointnt ca because she didn’t even try to involve them in her plan.
“Look, I know you’re mad, but believe , the real culprit is already being marked, and it wouldn’t be long before we know who’s the one who bears that mark.” Said Anne to Xavier.
The werewolf just looks at her, staring at her for a while, until he asked her, “What kind of mark?”
Before Anne could answer Xavier, Vale ca inside the room. His face was pale. “Anne, I need your help!”
.....
She knows imdiately that sothing is wrong with Justice, and without wasting any seconds, she enters Justice’s room and saw him trying so hard to breathe. Instead getting panic, Anne actually rejoiced. She asked for Vale’s hand and hold him tightly. “Quick, I need your magica!”
Vale was intrigued. Giving in to her request, she hold Anne’s hand, and another spell ca from Anne’s mouth. The golden thread that was binding Justice’s wound was now being released, and the wound flesh now intertwined once again. After a long process that seems like forever, the golden thread swirled into Anne’s arm and disperses inside her flesh.
With a gasp, Justice open his eyes, and at the sa ti, Anne was closing hers. Vale catches her body and carries her into another room. Justice stared around the room, looking so confused. “What… what happened? Why am I here?”
“Wait, you don’t rember?” Asked Xavier, he sat beside him on the bed, and tried to reason with him, “Justice, you were hurt badly, and Anne… I guess she saved your life.” And it’s all just co drowning at him, Xavier’s smiling and shook his head, “Yes, she saved your life.”
“What is the last mory that you had?” Vale asked Justice while leaning on the door fra.
The crown prince tried to rember the last mory that he had. “I rember that I kissed her on the carriage, her soft lips against…”
Vale and Xavier raised their hand and prevented him from speaking about it. “Yeah! Yeah! We know that! And then?”
“One of the ambushers strikes from behind, and that was it. I black out afterward.” Said Justice to them.
“You don’t rember the process of how she was healing you, then.” Vale ca inside and smile at his best friend. “It was remarkable. She basically stitches up your wound.”
“Does it hurt?” Asked Xavier, he was trying to see the wound but failed to see even a tiny mark, “What?! there’s nothing in your back, Justice, there’s no scar!”
Justice and Vale looked shocked at Xavier when he inford them about the missing scar. Vale took the mirror on the wall, and both of them look at his back, and just as Xavier’s said, no scar was even visible. The ghastly wound from yesterday now disappear and not even a tiny prick of the scar was visible on his back.
“Gods! This is… Sothing else.” He looks at his two friends who also have the sa expression, “This is new. I have never seen this spell before.”
Vale nodded his head. “So am I. As the magi, we need to know the extensive list of the magica. I have never actually known about this magica before.”
“She used your magica, right?” Asked Xavier, “How much magica that she needs to do… You know, this!” Xavier’s hand gestured towards Justice.
“Apparently not so much. This is certainly a high-level spell, but the magica that is used only as much as the dium-level spell.” Vale tells his friend, also pretty disturbed and sohow intrigued by Anne’s new spell.
“How is she?” Xavier asked Vale, while his eyes were staring at the ground.
“I don’t know, she just… asleep.” That was a lie. Vale knew Anne’s body was crumbling, possibly because of the new spell. He kept it for himself and will discuss this later on after Justice confronts his problem on this island.
“I said so things to her, so an things…” Xavier was full of regret, and Justice could see it from the look on his face.
“Don’t worry, she will be fine, although look fragile. Anne is one of the strongest won that I have ever known.” Justice said to Xavier, his hands patted on his friend’s shoulder, while he tried to walk out of his bed.
They follow him into the kitchen. Xander was outside, guarding the house. There were only four of them inside the house right now. Justice stopped for a mont in Anne’s room. He saw her sleeping peacefully, and couldn’t resist the temptation, he goes inside and caressed her cheek. Xavier and Vale were standing patiently beside him.
“Justice, let’s go outside. We need to let her rest.” Said Vale, carefully at him.
Justice then turns to Vale and Xavier, “We need to keep her new spell from everyone, I an, she was already being targeted by one of the dangerous beings in the empire, I don’t want her to suffer by another wrong hand again.”
“Don’t worry, it won’t,” Whispered Vale, although there was a double aning in his words. As to whatever happened to Anne, Vale needs to ensure her safety from the new spell that he never even knows to exist in this world.
