Chapter 439 - Into The Back Forest ---- Part 2
Chapter 439 - Into The Back Forest ---- Part 2
Everything began to dissapare from her vision when she looked into the man's eyes. Her stomach crunched and chest tightened uncomfortably. There was time when people forget to work on their rationality. She was having the same dumb feeling as if the earth mother had grounded her in that exact place. Her breathing turned short and unsteady. A wave of mixed emotions crossed on her face. Her logical thoughts all had vanished away and her mind was nowhere close to judge the reality. Well, she couldn't be blamed in this matter. The person who was standing only a few steps away from her wasn't anyone else but her biological father, Edward Chole who died right at the day that she was born.
The thought of her father had died long back didn't come across her mind for a second. So many unspeakable emotions ran through her mind. She yearned to meet him once but it was all in her vision. Though Ethan and Aaron played a big part of her fatherhood, an emptiness was always been there.
Her throat dried and muffled sobs threatened to come out. Edward looked young and prominent just like her mother described. Thanks to Ethan's power of looking past, she saw Edward many times using Ethan's power which could be exchanged into her body temporarily.
Ayra struggled to absorb her choking. Her hands were still shaking as she asked to reconfirm her vision,
" Da..Dad..Is that.. really you?"
Then the man appeared out fully in front of her sight. Dropping the old and torned shawl from his body, he gave her a warm, adoring smile. His expression was overwhelming as if he was flooding in emotions for meeting his daughter so closely,
" My child!"
His sweet voice was enough to break down all the defensive walls around her. He stood there, extending his arms to welcome his baby daughter. The scene was pure and heart-warming but Ayra was too blind to spot the loopholes.
Then everything became meaningless to her. The thought of having in her father's arms was everything that she craved so far. Her lips trembled and tears rolled down through her plump cheeks.
Without hesitating any longer, Ayra picked up the corner of her gown. With an unbelievable speed on her feet, she ran over to the man who was standing with his arms broadening.
As uncontrollable emotions ran through her mind, Ayra pulled him into a tight hug and broke down into tears without taking a note of anything. She heard his chest tightening before she felt a heat radiating through his skin.
Her emotions were collapsing as she made desperate comments incoherently,
" Why did you.. leave us... father..I missed you.."
His reply came out after a while as if he was thinking about a proper answer,
" I missed you too."
She failed to notice the intimidation behind his tone. She felt him putting one of his arm behind her back and caressing slowly as if he was trying to sooth her pains.
Edward kept his arm on her back and with a slight slippery of his sleeve, the mark that was very similar like Ayra dazzled under the dim light.
Ayra ended her tight hug and backed away before him to look into his eyes one more time to see if he was really real or not. When she found him still standing there, her joy was no bound. Sniffing on her nose slowly, Ayra muttered pressing her lips together trembling,
" Why didn't you come earlier, father? I wanted to see you so many times."
Edward smiled down at her lovingly. Using his other hand to caress her cheek, he replied in a melting voice,
" It wasn't right time for us, daughter."
Ayra was busted in emotions. Taking a look of him from head to toe, she replied stammering,
" Then how did you manage to come back, father? Am..Am..I dreaming? Will you dissapare..If I close my eyes?"
Edward didn't seem interested in answering her questions. He looked calm and reservant as if he was paying deep attention to his each action. Without reply to her question directly, he ran his fingers through her hairs slowly.
This time, Edward smiled genuinely as his eyes held the amusement of how she was impatient to have him by her side. His lips pressed into a thin line before asserting slowly,
" I will if you listen to me."
Ayra failed to notice that he didn't address her as daughter or child ever since she hugged him on her own. As her eyes never stopped looking at her father, she replied from the verge of her emotions,
" I will listen everything, father. Just say!"
Edward looked moved by her sincere answer. Pulling her again into his embrace slowly, Edward pressed his head beside her ears.
" Oh my dear!", came the impressive tone of Edward who was rubbing her back. As Ayra kept wandering about what was he going to ask, Edward reasoned softly as if it was another simple matter for him,
" I can meet you forever only if you..kill Cedric..Then we can be together for eternity.."
Meanwhile, as the commotion inside Palace didn't die down, Frenchies had to make a visit personally to check on the situation. Cedric was gone without telling where he had gone and all the tasks had been fallen upon Frenchies eventually.
He came down to see Cameila holding the pup which had been found out by the guards just now. The strange thing that happened in this rescue mission that the pup was found in a cage backyard.
Who would dare to cage him like that when the entire palace knew, this pups were nursered by their queen personally?
Frenchies casted a cold glare at Cameila who was hanging her head down in guilt. Frenchies took a look of his surrounding. Finding Ayra nowhere around, he spoke out of curiosity,
" Where is the queen? Have you informed her that her pup had been found?"
Camelia was present on that spot when Ayra decided to leave for the back forest alone. Thinking about the time that she saw her leaving for the outdoor area, Camelia chose to respond in a fearful voice,
" Master Frenchies..I..I saw the queen going outside. She..she must be looking for the pup."
Frenchies tightened his brows tighteningly. His lips parted in rage as he yelled at the guards who all came back without taking back Ayra inside the castle,
" Goodness! Did you all just come back without taking the queen inside? What did I tell you earlier? Do not leave her alone outside ever. Damn it! Go!! Now!! Why are you still standing here?"
Camelia was startled by his anger so the rest of guards. They didn't know that Ayra's staying outside would create such a big fuss nor did they understand why was Frenchies panicking so anxiously.
Before they could compile his order, Frenchies was the one to run first outside hastily. He took long steps as hurry as possible and went straight for the back forest.
Somewhere away from the back forest, raw leaves rustled together when a body was being dragged forward cautiously. Two men holding the woman's arms, the task was nearly effortless.
By the time, they had brought her to the person, everyone else were already present there. The man at his late forties frowned hard before growling at his useless guards,
" Hey!! Is that how I told you to bring her here? Fuck it! She is a princess and you can't drag her just like that."
The two guards snorted coldly. At first they abducted her and now they had to treat her like princess.
Why was she so important?
Despite their anger, they picked her up in their arms carefully and put her inside a carriage which was already waiting at the broken street.
One of the guard asked worryingly to the man who was smoking,
" Boss! Do you think it will work for Prince Shanz? What if he doesn't like it?"
The man glared at his hardly. Smashing the cigarette underneath his boots, he growled before assuring arrogantly,
" Why won't he? I heard from others that he just wants to fuck this woman. We will give her to him and then we will get our own work worked. You don't know anything about men. They care about their sexual thirst over everything."
The other guard joined who didn't find it a good idea,
" But isn't she a princess? Is it okay to use her for our own selfish motives?"
The man was annoyed by their judgemental thoughts. He shrugged shooting everyone a shut up glare before saying,
" It isn't like some rogues will fuck her for pleasure. He is a prince and soon to be the legit king of Davina. It should be her honor to be used by him. Now don't waste my time. I am sure, Prince Shanz will reward us after finding what we have as gift for him."
