Voice Of Love: " And then you found me amidst the darkeness where the world left me.."

|| RECOMMENDED SONG:

Angel By The Wings By Sia ||

Ford had yet to process with the warning that he received from his man. He didn't had much knowledge about the duke that he mentioned just now. Arching his head up at the sky, he peered through the darkeness towards the sky from where a giant dragon could be seen flapping his wings. The most strangest part of that flying creature was his green eyes that glittered like stars amidst the darkness.

Ford furrowed wondering in amusement that he had never seen such dragon before.

Could it be his man was speaking the truth?

On the other side, Isabella's condition was detouring slowly. Face covered in several bruises, she was looking nothing but a dead corpse. Her water broke down, spilled out with an excessive amount of blood. Her bleeding became so profuse that her entire gown had soaked in blood only. Her thighs were clenching together in pain. Her pain had turned so unbearable that she had no sound left to utter anymore. Only low whining voice came out through her parted lips. Eyes failing to keep opening up, she was loosing her conscious slowly. Not only consciousness, her own heartbeat was dropping down slowly.

Ford's enraged, disturbing voice rang in the air furiously,

" What the hell is he doing here?"

Before he could place his final decision, the green eyed dragon suddenly charged downward hurriedly. Flapping his broad wings urgently, it landed down crashing his heavy weight on a giant old tree.

Ford instantly stumbled back after witnessing such violent behavior from the dragon. Less than a few seconds, the dragon shifted turning into an young handsome man slowly.

With an smouldering look in his green eyes, a voice more likely a dead threatening came from the young man,

" Well.. that's not how you should welcome our guest.."

Taking a pause delibaretly, he spoke pulling his lips up into a smirk and asked removing his gloves slowly,

" Tell me, whom should I kill first? "

Ford ran his eyes over the young man from head to toe. Judging by his expensive pair of shoes, he was sure that the man wasn't any commoner. But his confusion didn't get the chance of arousing further.

The man who warned Ford earlier watched his facial features finally. Trembling on his feet in horror, the man fell on his knees showing his utmost respect to the Royal,

" Your Highness! "

Ford looked back at his man strangely. His man quickly explained shooting a pair of frightened look behind,

" Duke Silas De Vallod, it..it is our honour to meet you.. here.."

Ford finally realized that he was the Duke that his man was talking about a little while ago. Turning around to face the young man, it was really unbelievable to accept that he would be the next king very soon.

On the other hand, Silas was paying no attention on them. His green eyes roamed around to find anyone live nearby. Unfortunately he only spotted dead bodies which turned his blood more burning underneath his veins. His gaze rested on the carriage for a while, hoping that princess from Basarisk was there, safe and unharmed. His father had talked about her arrival in the evening. Their troops were all ready to receive them from the border but who knew that they would be attacked midway?

Lucky, he had thought about taking a fly over the sky and spotted a carriage, halted at the middle of forest. From his suspension, he flew down and found this rogues around here.

Silas sneered coldly, his green eyes turning darker in anger,

" But I am not happy to meet you guys here."

Ford came in front to explain anxiously,

" Your Highness..I can explain..we are..aaahh.."

Once he stepped closer, Silas clutched his throat so roughly that his sharp claws digged few inches deeper into Ford's throat. He asked hoarsely,

" My eyesight isn't so poor to detect that what evil creature you are! Where is the Princess? What have you done to her?"

Ford choked loosing his ability to response anything. His grip was too painful to bear anymore. Ford struggled to form any dialect. Before Ford could give him any response, Silas had heard a weak whining voice.

His green eyes fell on the woman finally amidst the darkness. Just by a glance, his heart froze in a while when he spotted her protruding belly.

Princess Isabella?

His hold around Ford's throat tightened before roaring voice rang out like a wild beast,

" BASTARDS! Even an enemy doesn't harm any pregnant woman."

With the saying, he threw Ford's body away in a powerful kick and took a large stride towards Isabella who was whimpering in pain over the ground. She was laying inside a pool of blood.

As he scooted closer and knelt down to examine her state, Isabella was dwelling between dream and reality. She had the feeling of leaving this world at that moment.

Eyes fluttering weakly, her subconscious mind visualized a blurry image of Vincent and imagined Silas as her husband. No matter how much hatred she had for the man, her heart yearned for his presence at this crucial moment. Perhaps it was a lover's nature to seek warmth from your lover in a difficult situation.

But Silas was nothing aware of her thoughts. He began to call her worriedly,

" Princess Isabella.. Princess Isabella..are you hearing me? Princess.."

His words were stuck abruptly as he felt a blood stained hand gripping his palm weakly. Isabella's sobbing tone came out, silently asking protection from the man beside,

" Vin..Vin.. Vincent..You..ca..came.. back..our b.. baby.."

Silas swallowed back his words instantly. He heard about her husband in the past. Though he wasn't him, he wasn't willing to break her heart at this moment.

Putting away all his hesitations aside, he replied rubbing on her palm slowly,

" Yes..I came back.. Nothing will happen to our baby.."

Everything he uttered might be lies but once he saw her smiling weakly, his heart melted at her sight. Isabella muttered mustering up the strength that was left inside her body,

" Do.. don't...lea... leave..u...us.. please..."

Silas swallowed uneasily. Not knowing whether he was faking or not but he promised to the woman who was yearning for the presence of her husband at that night,

" I..I will never leave you.. Stay strong."
