Es stepped back abruptly in disbelief.Her eyes danced between his two hateful eyes that she had never seen before. His lips ford a smile but one could clearly say that the smile contained only hatred and distrust for her.
Montarily she lost her own words and kept staring at his face trying to read his inner thoughts.
Did he really think that I have played with him in that days?
She lowered her gaze trying to stable her bewildered mind and he continued stepping near slowly,
" Did you really treat as a toy of yours? I waited every day for you but you never appeared in front of . Why Serena? You didn't even bother to inform once. You know what I waited for you in all these years."
He continued sneering,
" Now you appeared in front of with my friend as your husband. How the hell you got married with him? Do you know anything about him? "
He shouted bursting out his anger and rage,
" Why didn't you say a goodbye to at least?
Why Serena? Why? Am I nobody in your
heart? "
Es shouted back as hot tears started falling down through her cheeks,
" Shut up, Ron. Shut up.. I know, I know I have let you down. But please believe that I had no way out to find you or inform you once. You know nothing about . "
His expression eased back a little and a hard frown appeared on his darkened face. Es slowed down, taking a long breathe and explained looking through his eyes,
" After I ca back to my ho, sothing big happened in my life. I always wanted to inform you but I wasn't in that ntal state to think about you."
She turned around and continued looking outside,
" I'm banned from my own world, my own family Ron. All my powers has been sealed up by my mother and they abandoned this unfaithful daughter of them.Later I ca to live in human world like a normal mortal and tried to contact with you many tis.No one knows about us even not my second brother. Thus I couldn't find a way to tell you that I can't co to et you anymore. If they found out about my connection with a vampire, they would have punished you too along with ."
She was breathless as she finished her words and wiped the teardrops from her pale cheeks. Ron was in disbelief as he kept staring at her back in gobsmacked.
He never imagined that Es had gone through such difficulties. All the while, he thought that she didn't value him even as a friend and disappeared from his life without saying anything. Still he used to wait for her in their discerned place once in a week but he never got the chance of seeing her again.
Everyti he tried to console himself telling that she wouldn't co back ever but sothing hold him tightly. His disobedient mind still continued waiting for her badly even though he knew that there was no hope existed into it.
His eyes lted and flashed with pain for her realising that how much pain she had received from her own people.He gently stepped forward and asked curiously putting his hand on her shoulder,
" Can you tell that what happened back then, Serena? How did you end up marrying Aaron?"
His eyes flashed with murderous intent as he asked coldly,
" Or did he force to marry you? Tell everything. Don't be afraid. I am here with you."
Es's body jolted at his burning question as she clutched the hem of her clothes tightly. Even though he was ntioning the truth but her mind unknowingly didn't cooperate with the thought that Aaron should be hated by his best friend.
She couldn't deny the truth that though their marriage was forceful and without love or mutual agreent,he never treated her badly. Now at this mont, she started getting afraid that one day her heart would betray her brain by falling for Aaron.
Es shook her head slightly and denied wisely,
" I'm sorry, Ron. I can't disclose this matters with you. As for what happened back then, it is still a secret and I want to keep it a secret. I admit that my marriage with Aaron is complicated but I want to handle it by myself. I just need a favour from you."
Ron's eyes dimd a little and tried to read her mind silently. But Es was too determined to not speaking anything. Thus he gave up trying and nodded with assuringly,
" I respect your opinion, Serena. If you don't want to ntion anything, then I won't force you. I'm willing to help you as long as you want."
Es smiled back with gratitude turning around and said,
" You never changed Ron and I'm forever grateful to you."
Ron shook his head disagreeing and answered,
" No, I owe you. You saved my life, Es. In return, if I can do a little for you, my heart will be in peace.."
He stepped nearer closing the small gap between them as his words ca out like a whisper yet determined,
" I'm willing to do anything just to see your smile like before. "
Es looked back at his face and suddenly felt discomfort in her heart.
Why didn't she feel this discomfort when Aaron flirts with her?
This question beca a big obstacle in her mind as she smiled slightly before recalling sothing.
Her expression turned serious and her wet lips parted apart to speak up,
" Ron, I need to know about the Reisan Hallow."
His expression seed a horrified one as he asked knitting his eyebrows as his green eyes flashed with astounded,
" What!! How do you know about Reisan Hallow?"
Downstairs,
The chit-chat continued for a long ti and no one paid so much attention to the fact that Ron hadn't co down after playing his last card. Fenic was too impatience thus they went for another round without Ron.
Dennis clapped his hand laughing hilariously and urged pointing at another bottle,
" Co on, king Aaron. You have lost another round. Be a good boy and finish the bottle quickly."
Edward ushered and the others joined him pestering,
" Co on brother. Don't waste your ti."
Aaron sighed helplessly and put down the cards annoyingly before reaching out for the wine.
He unsnaped the snicker and took a quick long gulp holding his breathe. As soon as the liquor went down into his stomach, his expression turned black and blue.
He glared at those busy bodies and asked frowning,
" What was that? It's so rough. I might get drunk terribly if I finish it."
Fenic winked and replied teasingly,
" So what? It will be more fun for you to pleasure sister-in-law at your drunken state."
Aaron glared back and sothing flashed across his mind thus he asked with concern,
" How long you want to play? Es should take a nap. It's already midnight. I should go and check on her. "
Edward instantly hold him back and urged,
" No, you have to finish your drink first. Sister-in-law is resting in a room upstairs. Why are you going to bother her? You can take her back once we finish our ga. "
Aaron nodded with understanding and under their persistent, he attempted to finish the liquor once again.
On the contrary, Vanessa was left alone in a corner. Her face seed in rage as he glared at them hatefully. Everyone treated her like a piece of trash and didn't even bother to look at her especially Aaron. At first, she requested them to let her join in the ga but the boy, Fenic mocked her ability terribly and didn't let her join. Thus she could only stay there like an abandoned person.
That bitch is resting upstairs like a queen, damn it..!
Suddenly her gaze dimd at the sight of his drunken face. Everyti Aaron took a sip, his face turned a bit red as the alcohol started making him intoxicated. Even his drunken state, he hold the sa domineering aura of his face and seed more handso than usual. Her lips ford into an evil smirk as she continued staring at his face deeply.
On the other side...
MOONSHINE CASTLE,
For the first ti in recent days, Athena didn't leave her room for the human world. She stayed in her bedroom obediently and read so old books.
But her mind wasn't in ease. Each ti, she looked back at the chanic clock, her heart throbbed and panicked at hesitance.
She has already made up her mind that she won't et with Ethan ever. But what if he waits for her?
Finally she threw the book aside and got up from the bed annoyingly. No matter how much she tried, her mind didn't sober up instead fell in great discomfort.
She sighed helplessly and started pacing back and forth holding her forehead.
Why can't I get rid of Ethan from my head?I just have t him few days back, jeez.
After an unknown ti, the chanic clock dinged loudly snatching her attention from the window side. She looked up and saw the ti had reached at 12:00 A.M.
Her face sank again as she recalled her debt to him. She promised him that she would help him finding out his sister but the task was still undone.
Did I beco too selfish because of my own scars and pains?
Her mind displayed the dull face of Ethan when he ntioned about her missing sister. Her mind didn't sober up thus she reached towards the closet slowly.
