Chapter 24 GEZELLE’S WRATH
Warren wakes up the next morning.
The rays of sunlight shined brightly upon him.
Eren and Mikasa walked into his room.
“You’re up? What is the matter? It’s unlike you to be awake by this time”Eren said jumping into his bed.
“Yeah, Venar. You are always the earliest to get up. Is something troubling you?”Mikasa asked sitting down on a nearby chair.
Warren shook his head”It must be because of the race we had yesterday.” Warren suddenly remembered Josty as he turned to Eren “How is Josty? Did she wake up last night?”
“Yes, she did”
Warren sighed in relief”That a relief”
“You seem to be worried about Josty lately, Venar. Why?”Eren asked deviously.
Warren immediately dissed the idea. “It’s not what you are thinking. She got hurt because of me so of course I’m worried”
Eren wore a smug in his face”If you say soooo”
Anglassia suddenly walked into his room with folded arms as Eren sighed rubbing his forehead.
“Anglassia, give the guy some place, will you?”
“Keep quiet”Anglassia snarled at Eren.
Eren shook his head as she stood up and left.
Mikasa followed after Eren”Is there something going on?”
“No”
“Are you sure?”
Eren nodded his head twice”I’m sure”
Mikasa smiled. Eren was so bad at lying.
Back in his room, Warren stood up as he walked towards Anglassia.”I’m sorry”
Anglassia blinked her eyes back in confusion”W-What?”
“I was in a foul mood yesterday and so I shut the door on you and for that I’m sorry”
“No. I’m the one who is sorry.”Anglassia stretched her hands out towards Warren”Are we good now?”
Warren stared at Anglassia’s hand and back to her”Why does this feel like a farewell?”
Anglassia laughed out loud”What? Hey, this is my home”
“Then in that case”Warren said as he accepted her hand”We are good”
Anglassia removed her hands from his”I’ll be leaving now”
She quickly ran outside as she wiped her tears.
A white handkerchief was handed to her.
She looked up to see that it was her brother, Jerrire who was handing it to her.
“You are doing the right thing”Jerrire said.
On seeing her brother, Anglassia couldn’t control the tears that rolled down her cheeks.
They fell like warm water filling an empty ocean.
The words of Jerrire last night replayed in Anglassia’s head.
“You should give him some space. Infact, stop liking him”Jerrie had said to Anglassia.
Anglassia scoffed “What did you say?”
Jerrire had walked closer towards Anglassia and turned towards Warren’s door”It might not be clear to him yet but I can see it. All of us can” he faced Anglassia”He likes Josty or at least he feels something for her.”
“They way I see it. if it isn’t Alexa, it’s Josty. There’s no room for you-”
“STOP IT!” Anglassia growled in tears”You are my brother, how can you say such a thing!”
“Because it’s only then you are going to open your eyes and see! It’s time for you to let him go, Anglassia”
“And do you think it’s that easy?! I’ve loved him for as long as I can remember!”
Jerrire placed his hands on his sister’s shoulders”No, glassia. You’ve just always been around him so much that you’ve confused friendship for love”
“And there is one person you’ve always loved more than him, If I remember correctly and that person is yourself. You’ve always put yourself first before any other person.”
Anglassia stared up at Jerrire in tears”So what do you suggest I do?”
“Space, Anglassia. Give him some space and distance yourself from him”
“That doesn’t work. As long as we are in the same realm together, it’s not going to work”
Jerrire smirked”Now that’s the space I’m talking about”
Anglassia stopped recollecting the event as she threw her arms around Jerrire and wept loudly.
“It’s okay”Jerrire said patting his sister’s back.
He refrained from her as he handed her some tickets”Take as much time as you need”
Anglassia nodded her head as she took the tickets from Jerrie’s hands”Thank you… brother”
Upon hearing her call him ‘brother’, Jerrire pulled Anglassia towards him as he hugged her.
“Take care of yourself, okay?”
Anglassia hugged Jerrie back as she nodded her head”I will and you too.”
Anglassia decided to brighten up the mood a little bit”Hey, I won’t be around to disobey your orders again, shouldn’t you be happy?”
Jerrire tightened his grip on his sister”I’m happy, believe me”
“Really? Then let go off me”Anglassia said pushing Jerrire away from her but Jerrire didn’t budge.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“Hold on. Just one more minute”
Anglassia laughed”Your people need to see their lord behaving like a baby right now”
Jerrire suddenly let go off Anglassia”Now you are becoming annoying”
Anglassia laughed”I’ll be leaving now”
“Should I walk you out?”
Anglassia smiled”Should you? or do you want to?”
Jerrire shook his head”Never mind”
Anglassia patted his head”Now that’s my brother. I’m out now”
Jerrire watched Anglassia’s retreating back.
Jaden came towards Jerrire wiping his tears”I have to say, my lord. I didn’t know you were so soft. You and my lady share a wonder-”
“keep quiet!”Jerrire growled silencing Jaden and walking away.
Meanwhile back in the vampire realm, Faren balled his fist.
He was so close. Hadn’t Alexa intervened, everything would have worked out perfectly.
Marisol quietly removed a chair for the dining table.
“What are you doing?”Faren asked.
“Oh, your plan already failed so I’m sure father wouldn’t want you seating at the same table with him. No need to thank me”
Just then Greg made his presence known as he walked into the chamber.
“Honey!” Marisol squealed as she rushed up to him and engulfed him in a warm embrace.
“How have you been?”
“I’m good and you? How was it over there?”
Greg brushed Marisol’s cheeks”Later”he turned to face Faren”Faren, how are-”
“You should leave him alone for a while”Marisol said stopping Greg.
Greg nodded his head”Where’s father?”
Marisol sat him down at the dining”Sit down while I go get him”
Greg nodded his head as he watched her rush upstairs.
He turned around awkwardly in his seat as an uncomfortable silence fell between him and Faren.
Few minutes later, king Giyaza descended from the stairs with Marisol by his side as Faren suddenly started to shiver.
As Alexa walked back to her realm, she kept on hitting her head several times.
There was no way she could take back her words anymore.
Alexa hit her head “You are so stupid, Alexa. Why did you go blurting out your feelings like that?”
When she got to the front of he realm, she halted as she saw Queen Gezelle Infront of her.
“My Q-Queen. About your letter, I’m sorry that-”
Gezelle slapped Alexa across the face with so much rage boiling within her.
Alexa held her face surprised and in shock.
“So I see..”Gezelle said twisting her hands as if getting ready to slap her again “That you’ve decided to take my husband away from me”
