Serene’s POV
I waited for Zeph in the Aurorian common room, anticipation of what he would say to was killing . My heart was in shambles and I didn’t want to get hurt anymore.
Finally, the door opened with a creak and he stepped inside. The air in the room seed to have turned cold as he gazed in my direction and our sad orbs t. I could see the bags under his eyes, he hadn’t slept either. This had affected him as much as it had affected .
Sothing seed to have gotten stuck in my chest and I could neither breathe nor speak due to the emotions which were stifling . I couldn’t even move as he stepped closer to .
"Serene..." he whispered my na with so much love that my frozen heart began to thaw.
"I am sorry, I doubted your love. Can you forgive ?" He murmured while stopping inches apart from , his face was completed in pain.
"Zeph you do realize I am a princess and I have duties as a princess as well. I have to represent my realm and it is common for princesses to dance with others. Lancile only gave advice on how to make my relationship better with you. He wasn’t hitting on nor did I have any interest in him. I can’t deal with your insecurities every other day. If you want us to work, then you need to trust ." I took a deep breath with these words and felt a heavy burden lifting off my chest.
"I promise, I will do better. The thought of you leaving hurts my heart, it hurts my soul. That’s where my insecurities arise." He lowered his head at these words, his shoulders slumped as if admitting defeat.
"I will never leave you, I am yours," I whispered to him and he lifted his head to look at with gloomy pitch-black eyes and he nodded at , too stunned to speak. And without a warning wrapped his muscular arms around , so tightly that I couldn’t breathe.
"Z...eph, I...can’..t breat...he," I choked.
"Oh! Sorry." He loosened his grip but didn’t let go. I hugged him back, I had missed his hugs, his warmth, and his love and I hated every second that we were apart.
"Are we good? You forgive , right? You are not done with , are you?" He asked in one go.
"We are good and I am not done with you." I rested my head on his chest and snuggled close to him. His body had relaxed.
"I love you, Serene. I don’t think I can love anyone else too," he kissed the top of my head and I lted in his arms. We sat there talking for a while and sorted our differences.
By the end of the day, everyone knew we had patched up. All the girls hugged one after the other showing their affection and happiness. Ralph was overjoyed and his smile said it all.
"Let’s have a small party to celebrate this successful reunion of our idiot friends." Ralph chuckled and everyone agreed.
So we all gathered in the dining hall for a small party. Zeph brought his guitar and tool requests from everyone. Tanzil dedicated a song to Mikasim who had his chest puffed out as Zeph sang for them. Cainos wanted a song for Ayrden and Zeph happily obliged.
It swelled my heart to see how far Zeph had co from hating our existence to finally acknowledging everyone as his close friends.
"Zeph, do you have any idea how lucky you are? Rember the ti of Lourden when sadly enough I considered her a friend and followed her. She was so jealous of Serene and her kind heart that’s why she did what she did. She knew what an amazing couple you people could beco." Tanzil told us a little apprehensively.
"I am just glad that bit*h is gone. I hated her and what she did. Rember how Serene slapped her for hurting Zeph, that was the mont I knew she was the perfect match for him." Ralph said with pride in his voice and everyone nodded their heads so cheered, while I began to blush. Stealing a glance toward Zeph, he was sheepishly smiling at .
"Well, she has always been my savior. Sotis I beco too blind to notice but I promise to do better from now onwards." Zeph added with a smile earning a tight hug from Mikasim and a pat on the back from Ralph.
Everyone was happy, as we rembered our initial etings with each other. Of course, Ralph boasted about how he was always trying to impress Alvene and all of us chid in: "We know." This made everyone laugh.
"And Mikasim used to give all of us such bone-crunching hugs that I thought I would break my ribs soday," Zeph confessed while eyeing Mikasim. Who in return hid his face in his hands.
"I had lived among werewolves my entire life so it was difficult to always rember that now I had folkel mates. I do keep that in mind now." Mikasim added with a chortle making everyone laugh.
"And the first ti they made us fight those Schlangtos. We thought they were crazy and we were going to die. Not it seems like a child’s play." Cainos added and we all agreed.
"But the best was when Serene hit Zeph with the "Arrow of Sadness" he used to whine so much, he stopped after that," Mikasim told everyone while chuckling making us both blush and I hid my face in my hands while the whole hall echoed with the laughter of my friends.
We also rembered our vampire friends who couldn’t be here with us and said a prayer for them. Hoping we would be able to see them one day. Little did we know that the ti was very near when everything was about to change.
Artins Sensei called a eting the next day and inford us that we will be carrying out an attack on Wampir Realm in a month. A few of us will be accompanying the special force which will be ford to lead the attack and end the bloody reign of liana. We had one month to make all the preparations and strategize.
He notified us that we would train day and night for the next month and this information will be kept top secret so the enemy won’t even know of our arrival and what hit them. Rizar would be taking over our training for the next month. He will give us the roles and rigorously train us to face the enemy. This would be or die situation and will decide the future of our world as we knew it.
