BXBX NOVEL Chapter 415 - The King's Son
|| RECOMMENDED SONG:
Bare By WILDES (Continued) ~?||
Refreshing breeze whipped past her body in a comfortable way. Her heart, soul were in ease as she felt the satisfaction of hurting herself just the way she wanted. Maybe in afterlife, she would meet her baby, Vincent who wouldn\'t be a vicious beast anymore.
Eyes closed with a small smile tugging on her lips, Isabella was waiting silently to let the pain consuming her body. She surely took a perfect angle. If her body continued falling down, it would pierce through the surface of that standing sword. Then there wouldn\'t be any chance of her living in this world anymore.
Thinking about the last second of her life, Isabella prayed for everyone silently including her sister, Jessie who was broken like her but wasn\'t strong enough to show it off like herself.
As she waited in midair to embrace her death, giant wings began to flap from the other side of her direction. A strong force of air passed through her body as those wings made their way towards her..
Before Isabella had the opportunity of opening her eyes and take a look, she was captured a pair of captive hands. A gasp came through her lips as she was being lifted in Someone\'s arms. Before her thoughts could register what was going on, she felt herself carrying in the other direction.
Her eyes snapped open in shot and met a handsome face that she had seen after coming here. She opened her mouth to speak something but his green eyes glared down at her making her shut invoulantarily. After they landed down safely, Silas also threw her off from his arms.
Dropping her over the guard, he spoke first before she could even start anything,
" Do you think that you are the only person in this world who has lost her husband and child? Do you think that you are only one who can\'t bore any children anymore? Huh? We have plenty of women in this kingdom who don\'t even know who their father. They never had any family unlike you who got a doting family that fucking cares about you. Your entire family is getting sleepless nights thinking about your wellbeing. But look at you! You threw yourself selfishly to end your life! What about those people who were killed in your incident? Your aunt..She is severely injured and haven\'t opened her eyes yet. What are the faults of those people? They cared about you and bet their lives to save you. But you..You didn\'t even think twice before coming here to end your dear life. Talking about children, I raise more than 50 children who don\'t have their family. Do you think that your child is more pitiful than that? Their family don\'t want to even see their faces."
Silas finished his words in a breath. His green eyes watched her unblinkingly as he tried to control his urge of knocking her off again.
From the rooftop, Ayra and Cedric watched them stupifiedly. They didn\'t expect that Duke Silas would come with such quick cunning idea. Looking down at his sister who was standing safe and sound, Cedric breathed in relief. Ayra chimed in wiping her little tears away,
" Sister Bella is safe. Dear God! "
Cedric hummed with a tearful smile and subconscious pulled her closer into his arms to enjoy such blessed moment.
Isabella\'s expression was blank for a moment. Each words said by Silas had made sense. Thinking about those people who really don\'t have any family, Isabella\'s heart ached. Suddenly she questioned to herself that was her life more pitiful than them?
The answer was always no! She had loving siblings and a loving husband even though it didn\'t last longer!
Silas took the opportunity of studying her expression. Thinking about that his words had successfully impacted her decision, his heart was in ease.
His green eyes rested on her face for a while. The next moment, he stomped forward to pull her into his arms posseively. Isabella gasped widening her eyes apart to look up at him astonishingly. Silas spoke between his gritted teeth harder,
" Above all, I have saved your life. You have no right to take it away just like you want, Princess Isabella. Your life owes me now. Do you hear me?"
Flashes of images began to slide inside her head slowly. Recalling the moments from that incident, Isabella slowly recollected her memories one by one.
So.. he was the one who saved her?
Anger creepted through her skin when she remembered that she had asked him to save the child but he saved her instead. Isabella gawked back at him hatefully and asked letting the tears down once more,
" Why did you save me then? Didn\'t I ask you to save my baby? Why didn\'t you listen to me just?"
Isabella asked before brusting into tears. Silas panicked internally, holding the urge of pulling her into his arms but he had to keep himself restrained for the sake of moral values.
Silas spoke sobering up his anger a little softly,
" Pl.. Please don\'t cry.. Princess..If you left a newborn in this world, do you think that he would have given a better life without his parents around? Perhaps he would have a family to look after him but there is no way that he would have been happier without his parents. Life without parents is hard. I assume that you know it better than me. We do always have our purpose of living this life, Princess. You will just have to find out the meaning of your life. No one is born without intentions. You aren\'t the only one suffering in this world."
Isabella fell into deep thoughts after his words. Suddenly she found a meaning to live her life. Perhaps her child wanted to teach her some values of life. Vincent would have never wanted to see her so vulnerable and weak.
Why would she become lonely when she had so many people to care for her already?
Silas smiled faintly at her face. He assumed that her thoughts finally returned to work positively. To uplift her mood, he teased widening his arms jokingly,
" If you need some shoulders to cry for another round, my arms are always open for you."
At that night, the world witnessed another sweet bitter learning. Love comes from all shapes and forms.... sometimes from pain and the most painful parts of our life..
