RECOMMENDED SONG: Train Wreck By James Arthur ~🖤

Alexander had a grimace look hanging on his face when his sister revealed her wish of chatting with Cedric alone. Nevertheless then, his mother was taking their side easily.

Esme or Athena didn't permit immediately. They both merely looked up at their husbands silently waiting to hear their final decision and never broke eye-contact. Ethan hung his eyes down with a helpless sigh. No matter how they regarded her as a child still,there would be a time when they had to let her take decision.

Aaron answered first with his hand tapping on Ethan's shoulder in approval,

" Let them talk. Since her mothers have no objections now, we can only follow them up."

Ethan didn't speak a single word and signaled with his hand to take them inside a private chamber. Cerdic's lips pulled up into a mischievous grin when they all appeared defeated against Ayra's will. Even he was more eager to know that why did this fiesty woman intend to talk with him.

Dwelling in this thoughts, Ethan's closed subordinate guided Cedric upstairs with Ayra walking behind timidly. As soon as they dissapared behind the high walls of corridor, a loud bang startled the quite environment downstairs. Esme was startled and looked around only to be seen that Alexander had broken a vase out of rage.

He growled beastly before walking outside,

" You all don't know her..Just don't..You all are believing whatever she says but I can see the pain in her eyes. Since I have no right to say anymore, do whatever you wish."

Upstairs, they were taken inside Ayra's living chamber since it was the most guarded place across the White Castle. The subordinate respectively opened the door for them and closed from outside after they let in.

Entering into her room, Cedric quickly smelled her natural fragrance and glanced around with his sparkling eyes. He didn't believe that soon they were going to share a same room. Even this thought brought an odd excitement, happiness in his mind.

Wait.. why.. why was he overreacting? Did..did he just fall in love with her?

But his joy didn't last longer. When he was still pondering in his own thoughts, he failed to notice the extreme change on Ayra's facial expression.

Ayra didn't wish to spend a single moment with him especially alone. With her both fists clutching together, her voice came out like a growl,

" How is Seth now? I have followed your every command. He should be safe now, isn't it?"

Cedric's thoughts were interrupted when he heard her words. His dark eyes finally shifted on the girl's face who was fighting hard to suppress her anger. But there was a certain pain for her so called lover on her expression.

Cedric smiled silently, a smile that made her heart shook in fear. Turning around completely, he replied with a chuckle,

" Now, I get it why Princess was so eager to talk."

Ayra was having no patience for his playful words. She stressed her words again,

" Answer me..Is he all right?"

Cedric's eyes darkened further at the anxious sight of her face. Pushing his lips together, he simply answered before taking a quick pause,

" He is safe... till now..."

Ayra looked up at him blankly when he mentioned the last two words and heard him continuing amusingly,

" As long as you behave well and marry me, he will be safe and sound."

Ayra's face sank and pain rolled through her heart achingly. With some stubborn tears forcing to slip down from her eyes, she gnashed before speaking loudly,

" I hate you..I just hate you to death, Cedric Arnaldo Dixon..."

Her words didn't affect him at all instead he smiled from ear to ear. With his hands stretching out dramatically, he spoke while coming onto her slowly,

" Beloved, you are falsely cursing me. I just have saved your reputation. You will become a queen with all valuable goodies around the world unlike a typical marriage woman that you wished earlier."

He spoke as if he had done a favour for her and had come in front of her towering her body with his height. Ayra was stunned before feeling another course of anger running through her veins. Invoulantarily she blurted some words without noticing the hidden weight carried by those painful words,

" Oh yes! How can I expect that a demon like you will understand the meaning of true love who didn't even get his father's love..not even his mother's probably... aaahh..."

Ayra shouted hysterically when her back was pressed against the wall without any prior notice. Looking up, she saw Cedric's dark face that was mixed with anger and pain. She was a little taken back and somehow felt sorry for her own words. Did she go too far?

When she floated in bizarre thoughts, Cedric's hoarse voice came out with his hands clutching her shoulders painfully,

" You are right, Princess. I am a demon without a heart and don't understand the meaning of love. Well how would I? You are right again. I never got my parent's love. That's why I am going to win you with your hatred even it costs killing you slowly. You get it? "

Ayra felt drunk under his dark eyes as if he was going to swallow her whole. When she desperately tried to find a way to run out, Cedric's voice came this time so close to her face that the tip of their noses were nearly touching,

" You know what Ayra? I would have killed anyone for the guts of saying those words but I am behaving differently only because.... it's you. So from the next time, use your words cautiously until I am good to you or else who knows that what will happen to you."

Ayra barked without holding back her anger anymore and challenged him with her fiery eyes,

" I don't care what will you do to me! As long as Seth is safe, I am ready to die."

In no moment, Cedric's face clouded again. He was impressed with his own demon side that he didn't strangle this woman to death so far for challenging his patience. He smiled sinisterly and there was a hidden threat behind his words,

" Don't speak too blatantly, beloved. You don't even know me. I have much terrible ways to make you suffer except this. Why must I kill my own woman? Huh?"

Ayra was feeling suffocated and disgusted under his cage. She gritted and blurted with rage,

" Let go of me..You are disgusting.."

Cedric didn't pull away his hands from her immediately instead grinned maliciously. As his palms felt the smoothness of her skin,he teased with a devilish smirk,

" Be careful with your words! What if someday you become impatient for getting this warmth.."

Sensing her discomfort, he didn't hold any longer and let go of her slowly. Distancing himself from her with a cold face, he annouced with a domineering voice,

" Stop thinking about other man from now and get ready to become my queen."

With this last words, Cedric walked out of the room leaving Ayra's mind full of hatred for her.

By the time, Cedric had walked out from the chamber, his expression changed into a horrible one. Ayra's words stirred his emotions so badly that his body was emitting a dangerous aura. His powers became so uncontrollable inside him that all the chandeliers went out when he strode downstairs through the stairs domineeringly.

Esme and the rest were stunned before growing a little powerful.

How much powers he had possesed exactly that even his air could lit off the fire?

They wondered and saw him walking over to them. With a slight bow, he greeted his soon to be in-laws formally and revealed his thoughts,

" My lady, I would like to get married with your daughter the day after tomorrow if you don't have any objection. Meanwhile, I will return to my world to inform my sisters."

Arthur murmured lowly from his side,

" Isn't it too fast?"

Cedric didn't want to delay their wedding any longer. He was afraid that Ayra would run away with Seth and he might loose control from himself when it happens.

Giving it a deep thoughts, Aaron and Ethan coincidentally replied in unison,

" We will make arrangements fast. You can go ahead."

Cedric was pleased and bowed at them one last time before heading out to return in his own kingdom. Meanwhile, Ayra was sitting inside her room in daze and was recalling each words that she said downstairs.

Her tears threatened to fall down but Seth's safety was more important than her life. From the childhood, she was a pathetic child who didn't get love or deserved to be loved..she didn't know..

When she dwelled in this thoughts, a stone was thrown inside her chamber suddenly. When she waited to observe, another stone came and this time, it fell over her dresser causing a little anonymous sound.
