Chapter 20 LAURA’S FAVOR
Laura paced to and fro in her room think about what she could use her “favour” from Damien for but she couldn’t think straight because the rumor about Damien’s marriage already seemed to have spread.
“This is so annoying!”Laura grunted out in frustration”I took care of one problem now another seems to have arised”
“What’s so annoying?”A voice said startling Laura.
She turned to see Ms. Agatha standing by the door.
“I didn’t realize you were here”
“Because I didn’t make my presence known”Ms. Agatha walked towards Laura”Don’t think I’m not doing anything because I do not know”
Laura blinked her eyes in confusion”I’m afraid, I do not know-”
“Cut your act with me Laura. Damien coming here to see you, then ask me to give you back your powers? I know what you are planning and you better stop it”
“Unless what? More demerit points? Go ahead, I don’t care about the ‘Witches’ weekly exams’ anymore ”
Ms. Agatha grabbed Laura’s cheeks”He is getting married soon”
“I don’t care. He will still be mine”
Ms. Agatha pushed Laura aside”I tried to warn you”
Ms. Agatha turned around and disappeared into thin air.
With Laura boiling in rage, she clenched her fist”I know what to ask for now”
In the vampire realm, king Giyaza sat on his throne as he waited for Faren to enter his presence.
“When would your husband be visiting, Marisol?”King Giyaza asked.
“Soon, father. Oh look, Faren’s here”
As Faren entered the presence of his father, he threw himself on his feet”My king”
King Giyaza looked away from Faren”Marisol sent me a video of how you angered Damien during his last visit”
Faren bit his lips suppressing his urge to smile. It was like today he was finally going to get praised by his father.
After 16 long years.
“I have to say for a second, I was impressed but there’s a rumor going round town that Damien is getting married soon. It looks like your effort was futile once more”
Faren looked up at his father”No father, I can assure you that that angel is the one Damien truly loves. Without her, he’s going to be in pain”
King Giyaza stood up from his throne as he walked towards Faren. “You are all just talk, son. I need proof.”
Faren looked up at his father”I’ll give you proof, father”
“How?”
Faren balled his fist” By marriage. I’ll marry that angel and give you your proof, father”
King Giyaza smirked. Now his son was talking.
When Alexa got back to her realm, she informed Nana about the outcome of her mission.
“Oh and Queen Azalea gave me this”Alexa said rummaging her hand for the container but she couldn’t seem to find it”Huh? Where did it go?”
“Is something the matter?”
Alexa shook her head”Nevermind”
She was about to leave when Nana called her back.
“Good work today, Alexa”
Alexa blushed”Thank you Nana”
She happily skiddled to her room where she saw Celine, Josty and Karina sitting on the bed and waiting for her.
“Guys, guess what? Nana just complemented me”Alexa squealed happily but the girls remained expressionless.
“What’s wrong with everyone?”Alexa asked.
“Are you no longer angry about earlier?” Celine asked.
“Oh, that. Yes, it’s all behind us now”
“Really? Because there’s a rumor going around that lord Damien is getting married. Are you okay?” Karina asked.
“Of course, why wouldn’t I be?” Alexa walked towards the girls and hugged them”I’m sorry for getting angry at you guys in the first place. You guys are my family and I love you alot”
“We love you too, Alexa” Karina cried hugging Alexa back with full force.
She refrained from the girls and turned to face Josty”You are oddly quiet. Is something the matter?”
“I’m sorry but I have to be somewhere right away, sorry guys” Josty apologized before taking off.
“Where is she going?”Celine asked looking at her retreating back.
Karina shook her head “I have not the slightest clue”
Meanwhile deep in the forest picking apples where two little elves, Amanda and Stella.
And little Amanda couldn’t stop boiling in rage. “How could he do this to the pretty missy? Marriage?”
Stella tried to calm her down”Relax, Amanda. He might be getting married to her, who knows?”
“I doubt that. You heard him that day. He was going to get love potion and use it on the one he truly loves”
“That’s right but Amanda, do you remember how he looked while they spent time together?”
“Yes, so?”
“One’s feelings can’t be hidden and can’t be faked so easily either. Those were sincere feelings”
Amanda pouted her mouth”Hey, why are you so quick in taking lord Damien’s side?”
“Because of how he blessed Illinois and Latria’s wedding”
“Anyways, I can’t imagine how Ava land is going to be like when Princess Gezelle becomes Queen. She’s just as evil as the demon lord himself”
Stella sighed”I know right? Pretty missy would have been so much better”
“Tell me about it”Amanda looked at their basket”It’s like we are done, let’s head back now”
“I just want to punch lord Damien’s handsome face and ..”
As they left and their conversation slowly faded, Warren, Eren, Jerrire and Mikasa who were lying down on the ground all stood up at once.
“Did we hear that correctly?”Mikasa asked.
“Damien’s getting married?”Jerrire said unable to hide his shock.
Warren balled his fist in anger”How could he do this to her?”
He stood up abruptly as he headed for the demon’s realm.
“Hey, where are you going?!”Eren called as he and the remaining boys went after him.
As Warren was about to storm inside the demon realm, Josty appeared in his front as she spread her arms stopping him.
“Don’t do it”
“Move aside”
“No”
“Move aside, Josty”Warren growled.
Josty looked around her”If you want to go so badly Warren, you can just easily walk around me ”
Warren slightly removed Josty’s hand from his front as Josty winced in pain.
“Ouch”
Warren turned to her hastily”Are you okay?”
This was Josty’s plan. She wanted to use her injury to get him to leave.
She knew that Warren would be worried about her.
Josty held her hand”You pressed my injury”
Warren grunted out in frustration”Go home, Josty. You aren’t even well yet”
“I can’t let you go-” Josty pressed her head.
Warren shook her”Are you really okay?”Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“Everywhere is spinning, Warren. Everywhere is-” Josty collapsed to the ground.
As Warren carried her over her shoulders, she inwardly praised her acting skills.
The four boys ran to take Josty back to the Angel’s realm.
Meanwhile standing ontop the roof of the vampire realm, was Faren.
He checked his watch. She was late. Where was she?
Laura suddenly appeared in his front.
“You are late!”Faren growled at her.
“I never told you I was coming, did I?”Laura looked around for a place to sit down but didn’t see anything.
She sighed as she casted a spell that made a small chair appear.
She sat on it, folded her arms as she crossed her legs “I thought I told you to stop calling me”she said clearly frustrated.
“I need you to create one of those love potions you usually make”
Laura grunted”The people of this land are all so weak. What’s the big deal about love that you all are killing yourselves over it?”
“I need it to use it on that angel”
Laura smiled. “Oooh, Now I’m listening”
“I need her to fall in love with me and marry me”
Laura smirked”In that case, I have something much more important than a love potion”
“And what is that?”
“You’ll find out in due time”Laura disappeared from Faren’s presence and appeared Infront of the demon realm.
When she was granted access to be in Damien’s presence, she bowed before him.
“I thought I wouldn’t ever have to see your face again”
“And this will be the last time you will have to, my lord. I’m here to use my favour”
Damien sighed”And what do you want?”
“I ask for your blessing upon a marriage”
Damien rubbed his forehead. Everyone was going to turn him to a priest now?
“Go to a priest or something”
“Please, my lord”
“Okay, fine. Your marriage has my-”
“It isn’t my marriage, my lord”
Damien wrinkled his brow”Then whose?”
Laura looked up at him”The marriage between lord Derekson Faren and Alexa Higgins”
Damien stood up abruptly from his throne as his eyes turned red and flames erupted from his eyes”WHAT DID YOU SAY?”
