Es couldn't believe her own ears at that ti as she kept staring at Athena with her widened eyes. Athena nodded comprehensively as she explained the incidents happened back in the human world obviously skipping the part of their sweet interaction.
As far as Es heard, her face turned pale in tension as her breathing was becoming heavy.
Can it be possible that Ayra was missing her too much that brother had to find desperately?
Guilt and agony flashed across her mind as she kept listening Athena silently. After explaining everything, Athena turned around finding her daze state and felt sympathy.
Why did his brother has to lay his eyes on this pitiful girl who was already living away from her own family? But brother was never interested towards won not even Vanessa.
Coming back to reality, Es asked holding her hands pleading,
" Athena, please can you tell that how can I escape from this world? Please, I will be forever grateful to you."
Athena's face fall as she asked sohow in disbelief,
" You... you want to leave my brother, sister-in-law? Don't you love him a bit?"
Her hold subconsciously loosened before staring at her face blankly. Her heart wrenched at the thought of leaving his side as she spit out whispering,
" I.. But I need to go back. Soone is waiting for . "
Athena didn't quite understand her words still spoke for the sake of her brother,
" Don't be so heartless, sister-in-law. I don't know what kind of trouble that you are facing in your life. But I can only say that don't judge my brother with his ruthless. He is just broken seeking for an unconditional love that he never had in his life. "
Es looked up at her face confused flashed as Athena continued squeezing her hand softly,
" Try to know him once, you will find your happiness. He isn't so bad that he seems to be.Perhaps he can help you solving your problem. Moreover you can't get out of our world on your own. Vampires can easily transfer into another world through the EERY JUNGLE. But for you, you need a bearer to take you outside of our world. Even the normal fairies except high positions can't enter our world without my brother's permission."
Es's mind went blank as she listened her words looking outside blankly.
What can I do now? How did I stuck here?
As her eyes went away through the window, she again heard Athena's tensed tone,
" But I assu that if your brother tries to enter our world, things will go out of hands and consequences can be horrible. It would be the best if you could visit him once and explain him everything clearly. But who will take you there now?"
She smiled bitterly walking near the window and continued,
" After today's incident, my mother will never let out of this castle as far as I know her."
Es's head was ssed-up completely at the delusion of upcoming dangers. She was concerned about her brother the most.
What if he tries to enter and catch up by Aaron midway? He can be killed rcilessly!
Flashing away her thoughts, she tried to sober up her perplexed mind. Athena turned around and added smiling at her faintly,
" All I can say that follow your heart sister-in-law. Don't let the fear consu your happiness. You may regret later."
Es looked up and stared at her blankly sinking in her own thoughts before nodding slightly. As Viviana coughed loudly from outside, she jolted reminding the thought that they had to head back before queen mother knew.
She thanked Athena with gratitude,
" Thank you, Athena. You have helped too much. I hope this will remain between us only."
Athena smiled assuringly,
" Rest assured!"
Es smiled back faintly as she intended to turn around but stopped approaching near her. She gave her a warm hug and spoke overwheld by her helpfulness,
" You are such a good sister, Athena. I wish you be happy all your life."
Athena was lost for a mont at her panda hug suddenly but later accepted and patted her back gently. Es quickly left her embrace before pulling up the hoodie and started walking outside.
As she reached at the doorstep, Athena's remorseful voice ca from behind,
" Sister-in-law, if you et Ethan oneday, just tell him that I never intended to deceive him. I was genuinely helping him all the ti."
Es paused a bit and turned around gazing at her love filled eyes deeply. She didn't ask further and replied with a smile before heading outside. Athena let out a long sigh of pain as her mind went back to a certain place of human world feeling empty in her heart all of sudden.
DALASTIA WORLD,
Ethan landed down on the empty pave way in front of the giant white castle. Anger and agony were written all over his face as he made his way inside slowly. Even the male fairy guards seed surprised at his sudden appearance and bowed their heads respectively.
On the contrary, Ethan had a blank expression as he continued without watching around. Midway of his path, a creepy voice jerked off his thoughts suddenly,
" Tsk.. Where are the maids? Didn't anyone co to welco our dearest brother?"
Ethan paused a bit before turning back towards the way of the voice harshly. Ester was standing still leaning against the pillar putting on a smug smile.
His expression was sarcastic as if he had seen any joker. He sighed mockingly before spitting out hissing,
" Tsk.. The good days in human world has finally co to an end, brother. Have enough fun with the ladies?"
Ethan frowned tightly not bothering to argue with his nonsense as he intended to turn around. But Ester was quite persistent thus he interrupted his pace speaking loudly,
" Why did you bother to co back anyways? Don't you know that you have no place in your mother's heart? Nobody wants to see you here."
He added chuckling,
" The persons who wanted you here all are gone."
Ethan closed his eyes tightly clenching his fists aside as he tried not to be provoked by his words. After a while, he turned around, took few predatory steps towards him as Ester shifted in his spot uncomfortably.
He ca near his face to face before replying shortly with a smirk,
" I ca to take back what is rightfully mine, brother."
After giving his deep reply, he turned around and headed inside leaving him all in dumbfounded and rage.
What.. What did he an by that?
Ethan slowly walked away towards a zigzag door before giving it two loud knocks. A soft tone ca out as response,
" Co in."
Ethan pushed open the door before stepping into the soft carpet and glanced at the woman sitting on her bed. Over the bed, Queen linda was seeing so little cloths in her lap as her affectionate gaze landed on it gently. Her slender fingers were caressing the hem of the clothes as if she was adoring a baby ntally.
Ethan frowned lightly before giving a light cough to gratify his presence. Queen linda was jerked back to reality as she looked up only to be spreading out into a beaming face.
She abruptly sat up from the bed holding the intense happiness inside her heart as she walked nearer,
" Eth.. Ethan, you have co back to the castle initially. Son.. you.. you don't know that how much I'm happy for you."
Her happiness reached so much that subconsciously her eyes teared up. On the contrary, Ethan was holding the sa cold expression as he ignored focusing her face purposely.
As she attempted to touch his arms loving, he quickly stepped back as a disappointnt flashed across her eyes. Ethan sighed softly before speaking straight away,
" I have co to tell you my decision, mother."
He turned his face eyes and t her flabbergasted gaze before adding,
" I'm willing to take the throne. But you must promise that you won't interfere in my decisions."
Queen linda bead into a wide smile as she replied excitedly,
" As you wish, my son. I'm already contended enough with the thought that you are finally willing to beco our king.As per our ancient rules, you can decide whatever you want and we won't have anything to say in your decisions. Your wish will be our command. But... "
Ethan looked up and waited for her to continue. She continued seeming depressed,
" But you have to prove your ability in front of the high emperor fairies. As you have a rival Ester who is also eligible for the throne, you both have to go through so tests. As long as you prove your abilities, they will accept you as their king."
Ethan exhaled so long breathes deeply as he replied with determination,
" I'm willing to do anything, mother. But rember that you can never interfere in my decisions. "
Queen linda felt suspicious towards his self approach but she could only agree with him as he never obeyed her so far.
