Chapter 48 MOVING IN
Meanwhile even when the trumpet had blown, the chaos in the Witches’ realm continued.
The girls shrieked as they saw an unknown man grabbing Ms Agatha by her neck.
“We have to do something fast!” Sarafina said.
“Everyone hold hands” Salando commanded. “Do you guys remember that spell madam Christine taught us last fall?”
“The fire spell?” Rayna asked
“Yes, that one. With the seven of us together, we can create a big fire and get rid of that stranger”
“I don’t think that’s good idea.” Sarafina disagreed “With the seven of us, the fire would be big enough to bring down this entire realm”
“And also, I’m scared of fire” Flora whined.
“Then do you guys have a better suggestion?” Salando asked.
“I think we can use the cage spell!” Sia who had been quiet thinking about something blurted out.
“Fine, let’s just do it then!”
The seven girls held hands as they muttered in unison.
Kendall felt his hands slowly started to shake as he dropped Agatha to the ground.
He finally took notice of the girls’ presence.
As he made an attempt to move, he found himself unable to budge.
The “cage” spell was used to hold someone in place and put them in an invisible cage and then you could transport them to wherever you wanted.
“I’ll be back!” Kendall snarled as he slowly started to transport.
“Father!!” Laura screamed as tears filled her eyes once more at the mere thought of loosing her father again.
Meanwhile, As Alexa walked into the demon’s realm, she had her head bowed down as all eyes were on her.
“Doesn’t she have any shame? She ruined the happy life of lady Gezelle”
“I know right? She must be ashamed of herself that’s why she has her head bowed down”
The two ladies who were gossiping about Alexa were stunned when they saw her Infront of them.
“If you have more to say then please say it Infront of me” Alexa said.
The first lady stuttered before scurrying away and dragging her second along.
Alexa sighed as she wiped off her tears. Those ladies were right and that was probably what everyone was thinking too.
She gathered her courage before knocking on the door that led to Marianna’s chamber.
“Come in” a voice said from inside.
Alexa opened the door and immediately she could see who Damien took his appearance from.
Queen Marianna was sitting Infront of a mirror as she slowly brushed her hair.
She turned to face Alexa as she stretched out the brush towards her ” Do you mind?”
Alexa took the brush from her hand as she slowly brushed her hair. “You have a lovely hair, my Queen”
Marianna smiled. “And you have soft hands, my child”
“You know, I’ve always wanted a female child. I’m not saying that Damien isn’t enough-he’s more than enough- but there’s always that emptiness that comes along with not having a daughter”
Mariana held Alexa’s hand . “But now it feels like I have a daughter.”
Marianna wiped at her cheeks. “Do you really love my son? Are you marrying him with another reason in mind?”
Alexa shook her head immediately. “No, mother. I really love Damien”
“Then that’s all I need to hear.” Marianna stood up from the mirror as she faced Alexa. “Valdir wants you to stay here during the three days before your wedding, is that alright with you?”
Alexa thought deeply. She would like to spend these three days with her family who she hadn’t seen for a month and she owed them alot of explanations too.
“Mother, I don’t-”
Marianna held Alexa’s hands. “Please don’t say no. During those three days, I would like for us to become close. What do you say?”
When Marianna asked her that way, there was no how she could object even if she tried.
She nodded her head. “Alright then, I’ll stay here during those three days”
“Thank you!” Marianna squealed as she hugged Alexa.”Are you in a hurry or would you like to stay for some tea?”
“Actually, my family is still in shock over the sudden news of my marriage so I have to go back to them now”
“Ah, I see. Take care then”
“You too, mother” Alexa said as she left Marianna’s chambers.
Immediately she stepped out, she bumped into someone.
“I’m sorry” she apologized with her head down.
“About what?” A deep voice asked offended.
Alexa looked up to see that the person she’d bumped into was Valdir.
“If you are so sorry like you say you are, why did you make a mistake? First the marriage and now this!” Valdir snarled as his eyes went towards the chamber she was coming out off. “What were you doing here?”
“Q-Queen mother requested to see me”
“So if you are done, now leave”
“Y-Yes”
Alexa ran as fast as she could as she recalled Hermenes words; Does his family accept you?
She wasn’t looking where she was going so she didn’t the stone Infront of her making her trip.
As she felt herself falling to the ground, she was stunned to see that someone had caught her.
When she got back on her feet, she saw it was Damien.
“My wife is planning on getting injured just days to our wedding?” Damien joked.
Alexa had never been more relieved to see him.
In the spur of the moment, she threw her arms around him and embraced him ever so tightly.
Shocked by her sudden display of emotions, Damien wrapped his arms around her too.
“Is everything alright, Alexa?”
“Yes. Everything’s fine, Damien”
“Are you sure? Did someone say something-”
Alexa refrained from Damien as she grabbed his face and kissed him lightly on the lips. “Damien, everything’s fine”
But Damien wasn’t going to let matters slide that easily. His eyes trailed where she was coming from and did all the maths that led to his mother chambers.
“Did mother do anything to you?” Damien asked unsure of himself because he knew that if anyone amongst his parents was going to disagree with his wedding it would be his father, not his mother.
“Mother wants me to move in quicky with you”
Damien smiled widely. “Really?”
“Yes, so don’t worry about anything. I told you, everything’s fine”
“Where are you going to in a hurry? You just saw your husband, you know”
Alexa chuckled at his childish behavior. “I have to clear up some matters at home but I promise I’ll be back”
She placed her hands on his cheeks. “Besides why worry about me being gone for a minute when I’m going to be spending eternity with you?”
Damien smirked. “Keep saying things like that and I’m not going to let you go”
Alexa laughed.”I’ll be back shortly, okay?”
“Okay” Damien said before watching her retreating back.
As soon as he turned around, he saw Gezelle and immediately his smiled faded.
He walked on his way, avoiding her but she was planning on just letting him go like that.
“You seem happy”
“I am”Damien said as he passed by her.
“Don’t you feel any ounce of shame? You were seeing another woman when you were engaged to me!”
“You know I didn’t love you, Gezelle”
“But you knew I loved you, Damien and don’t you dare lie about that!”Gezelle turned around to face Damien.
She was torn and hurt. It hurt more that it was Damien, her childhood friend who had torn her apart like this and all for someone who just appeared once into his life.
And Valdir kept on telling her that Damien would be hers but kept on doing nothing except preparing the event for their big day!
“You might be feeling on cloud nine right now because you are in love but hear me out now, she’s going to do to you exactly what you did to me”
“That’s impossible. Alexa loves me”
“I give you my word right here and right now, Damien Azrael kiddus “Gezelle said pointing her finger sternly at Damien “I will do everything in my power to make sure that you and Alexa will never be happy”
That she swore by the goddess of life as she turned around and walked away bashing her shoulders against Damien.
He’d hurt her first and now she would pay him back.
