BXBX NOVEL Chapter 90 - Save My Husband!
DARK FOREST, EASTERN PART
The wind suddenly started blowing abruptly. The air turned cold and the numerous whispers of winds could be heard in the forest. Esme\'s gaze was stuck in front alternating between fear and anxiety. Today the woman was still wearing that familiar hoodie hiding her viciousness behind the shade of it as she examined Esme while standing still for a while.
Esme\'s face darkened in fear when she assumed the woman to be the dangerous woman ENCHANTRESS.
Her heart throbbed for Aaron that she couldn\'t wait to smash this woman into pieces if she harmed Aaron anyhow.
Esme parted her lips to ask Aaron\'s whereabouts but the woman spoke first in a tone of whisper and danger,
" Blood of King Henry...!
Indeed they have courages."
Esme\'s face turned sour as she fell in dilemma after hearing out.King Henry was the biological father of Esme who had left his kingdom a long time ago. Afterwards she never met her father nor did she saw him anymore. Hearing the name of her father from this mysterious woman had surely pricked through her heart.
The woman smirked spotting her dropped expression and provoked purposely,
" Tsk... a banned fairy and an abandoned child."
Esme\'s heart felt a stab at her words but still remained firm because of Aaron and instead asked boldly,
" Who are you? Why are you after us?"
The woman broke out into a laughter as she started stepping near Esme. Her steps were slow yet dangerous as if she had come to seal souls.
Esme staggered backwards uncomfortably before paying a sharp attention over her footsteps. The woman laughed once again sensing her thumping heart and replied sarcastically,
" I thought that you are already aware of my identity Esme Chole.. opps.. Should I call Esme Richards?"
Sighing deeply, she continued smirking from her hidden face,
" But I don\'t see you marked by him. Why do you care about him then?"
Esme\'s face turned stiff as she ridiculed her without bothering. Her face flashed with anger and rage as she replied forming a proud smile,
" Marking is part of the ritual that can\'t be ignored. But love is way more above than marking which can\'t be seen by everyone. Especially some vicious woman like you, ENCHANTRESS."
Enchantress felt humiliated at her words and started fuming in rage. No body ever dared to talk boldly in front of her not even any king of vampires. But this girl without any superpower had defined her as vicious and furthermore lectured her about love.
Letting out a loud groan, Enchantress sneered and spoke loudly,
" When you know my identity, how dare you still standing here? Don\'t you afraid of death? Go back to your home, girl. I don\'t have any grudges against you."
Esme replied back drawing a long sigh and peeked around,
" I will definitely go but let my husband go."
Enchantress refuted nonchalantly,
" He isn\'t with me. "
Esme frowned not believing her words and demanded stepping forward,
" He is under your cage, I can understand. Or else he isn\'t so weak enough to be lost in this dark forest. I\'m telling you Enchantress, give him back to me or else I\'m not going to spare you at any cost. You might have grudges against him or his family but right now, he is my husband and we can solve it in other ways if you want. "
Esme talked and tried best to divert her attention whereas she gazed around to find Aaron secretly. Enchantress was a little taken back at her chivalrous attitude even in this worst situation.
She sneered and broke out in a cold laughter,
" No..He can only be finished by me.This is the last time that I\'m telling you girl. Go back and save your life. Don\'t waste your time over me."
After saying her words, she planned to return inside her hiding spot but just then, Esme casually looked up at the high branches of the tree. Her breathe hitched at the sight over there as she let out a muffled scream,
" Aaaroonnn!! "
Enchantress\'s face had turned dark as she followed her gaze and realised that Esme had figured out Aaron who had been tied against a thick branch above.
Esme breath turned rapid in anxiety as she spotted the bruises over Aaron\'s face. This time, she was confirmed that it wasn\'t any imposter that she had encountered earlier. The cold aura of his face didn\'t even fade away after being injured severely. His eyes were closed off as if he was in deep slumber sleep.
Esms started rushing over the wooden body of the tree intending to climb up but Enchantress quickly casted a spell on her away that made her fall far away from the tree.
Esme gasped feeling the crisp pain on her stomach and looked up at Enchantress lying down on the wet ground. Enchantress sneered hatefully before stepping near her and spoke devilishly,
" I thought of showing some mercy on your pitiful state. But it seems like you are here to ruin my all hard works and I\'m not going to let you do this."
Esme tried to get up but her body denied as the pain on her stomach was far more painful than her numbs. She watched Enchantress coming across but still held the last bit of hope. She struggled hard but Enchantress grabbed her long hairs harshly dragging away from the tree.
Esme screamed at the pain on her hairs and spoke gritting her teeth together,
" Let go of me, Enchantress. You will never achieve your goal. Evil won\'t win.. won\'t ever.."
Enchantress took a pause between her task and shifted her gripping on Esme\'s tongue as she dogged in pain.
She lifted up Esme\'s fragile figure in the air single handedly and looked through her eyes. Esme\'s eyes teared up at the pain on her tongue and saw her firing eyes blankly. She whimpered but never begged for mercy and boldly faced Enchantress\'s viciousness.
Enchantress spoke scanning her daring face and tried to break her confident stating,
" You want to see how I sucked your father\'s soul, Esme Chole?"
Esme stopped struggling and suddenly faced her in disbelief.
What did she mean by that?
Her eyes went wide as she barely managed to speak those words gasping for breathing,
" You.. you.. killed... my.. father.. too? "
Enchantress intended to give her another heart wrenching reply but the next moment, she sensed a hard punch on her chest that made her loosening her grip.
Esme also fell down on the wet ground along with Enchantress and coughed vigorously. Her gentle appearance had long gone as she glared at Enchantress harshly.
On the contrary, Enchantress\'s turned awestruck at her sudden change in action and charged towards her beastly.
Esme jerked off from her grip and gave her another kick sliding behind her. Enchantress groaned in a low voice at her vicious attack and turned around swiftly. Without wasting anymore time, Enchantress gripped her tongue and attempted to suck her soul power.
She let Esme saw through her eyes and started emitting the dark airs of sucking her inner energy. Surprisingly a flare of white lights started eliminating from Esme\'s chest pushing Enchantress backwards all of sudden.
Enchantress cried out in pain as she drifted backwards hastily. She vomited a pool of blood instantly before watching Esme with her horrified eyes.
On the flip side, Esme was stunned too. Her teary eyes looked down on her own chest that appeared out her zodiac sign Star which was glistening like the real star in the sky.
The jungle trees turned messy in heavy winds around as the wind passed through her frozen figure. Looking down at Enchantress who appeared frightened at Esme\'s lightening, she started staggering backwards slowly.
Esme frowned hard closing off her eyes and tried to calm down her unstable mind. Within a blink of eye, her surrounding was gathered up with many white women who all had white wings along with a pretty face.
Opening her eyes partially, Esme spotted the crowd of fairies who all had bowed down their heads in respect. One of them lifted up her head slightly and asked smiling widely,
" Princess Serena, what\'s your command?"
Esme was too surprised to say something. She exhaled long breaths and suddenly remembered the most important task here.
She looked over the tree and spitted out blankly,
" Save my husband first. Save him."
RIVERGREEN VALLEY,
The noises were becoming louder and louder as Ayra proceeded moving forward. She had forgotten her thirst momentarily and followed the way of the noises.
Reaching almost near of the pool, she stopped under a shadow of giant tree and looked on the three people having conversation over there.
They were most likely arguing and one of them seemed disturbed as he talked with the woman rudely. She kept quite for a while but suddenly a spider fell down on her dusty feet from the tree.
Subconsciously she let out a scary scream that successfully drew the attention of the people over there.
Three of them shifted their eyes over the spot that the loud scream came out. Because of the shadow and dense darkness, they couldn\'t see her face but her existence were vivid.
Ester ordered Jeremy loudly,
" Grab her fast. Go affer her."
Ayra trembled at his roar and without waiting anymore, she started running into the jungle fast.
