SAVE ME

Jerrie stood Infront of Warren’s door and after many contemplations, he knocked on his door.

Warren opened the door and was surprised to see Jerrire”oh!”

“C.. Can I come in?”

“Yes, my Lord”Warren gave way for Jerrire to pass.

Jerrie walked into Warren’s room and stared around.”This place is starting to look oddly unfamiliar”

“Of course. You have more important things to do, my lord”

Jerrie turned to face Warren”As of today, you are released from your leash”

Warren’s eyes widened in shock”What? Why?”

“I saw Eren and Mikasa earlier, you still keep in touch with them?”

“Yes, my lord”

“It looks like Eren still follows you around”

Warren smiled”It’s probably because I saved his sister from drowning 6 years ago”

Jerrire nodded his head”I’ve been more of a lord than a friend to you, Warren. Eren made me realize that and I’m sorry for not always understanding you”

Jerrire put his hand in his pocket as he sighed heavily”To be honest, I still miss those days when we were young and would run around the whole realm”

Eren swinged his arms over Jerrie’s shoulders”And we can still have those days back”

Jerrire looked at Eren in shock”You are here?”

Eren smirked”Of course. You said it yourself. I follow Warren around like a leech”

Mikasa turned to face Warren who was sitting in his bed”What are you doing, Venar?”

“What do you mean?”

“Our lord said he missed how we would run round the whole realm when we were young and you are still sitting down?”

“Ah, right”Warren said as he hastenly got up.

The four boys got outside the realm and glanced at one another.

“Shall we?”Eren asked.

“1… 2… Go!”Jerrire called out as the four boys transformed to their wolf forms as a black, grey, white and brown wolf was seen entering deep into the forest.

Meanwhile nestled in each other’s arms in a far away place, was Latria and Illinois.

“I can’t believe the demon lord actually gave us his blessings”Latria said with her heart full of joy.

Illinois gently stroked her hair”I told you. He’s in love too. He understands us”

“You’re right. I wish him happiness too just as he as done for us”

But happiness seemed to be far away from Damien as Alexa heard the words that came out from Gezelle’s mouth.

Marriage? She thought. Is Damien married?

“Hi. It’s nice to meet you. I’m Damien’s soon-to-be wife”Gezelle said stretching her hand towards Alexa for a handshake.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Alexa bowed her head”I’m sorry. I didn’t even recognize who was Infront of me”

“It’s okay.”

Alexa thought of the quickest route to leave. She had to leave unless she was going to break down in tears infront of the future Queen of Avaland.

“I’ll take my leave now”

“No, please stay”

“I’m sorry but it was a mission from Nana that brought me here. I have to report it back to her so I best be leaving now”

“You’re right. Another time then, let’s meet. Just us two”

“Okay, my lady”

“Then take care”

Alexa bowed her and walked away but Damien wasn’t going to let her leave just like that.

If he didn’t clear the misunderstanding between them, this would just make things worse.

So Damien pursued Alexa. When he caught up with her, he grabbed her hand but Alexa removed her hand from his grip.

“You are the worst, do you know that?”

“What?”

“I can’t believe you were engaged to be married”

“I’m not marrying anyone!”

“You know what? I don’t want to hear it. Let’s never see eachother again”Alexa turned around as she left the demon realm.

An angry Damien walked back inside to where he’d left Gezelle.

“Can you please stop showing up in my life!” Damien shouted at Gezelle.

Gezelle smirked as she folded her arms”No. You are the one who lost focus first. Just two weeks, I was away and you fell in love with an angel.”

Gezelle stood up from her throne as she slowly approached Damien”But now that I’m back, everything is going back to it’s rightful place, don’t worry ”

Gezelle tapped slightly underneath Damien’s chin”And why are you so angry with me? I did nothing wrong.”

Damien grabbed Gezelle’s finger”You lied about me fixing a date for our wedding”

“I didn’t lie. A date has actually been set for our wedding. Seeing your surprise, I see you aren’t aware”Gezelle smiled broadly”We get married in two weeks, honey”

Alexa went back to the mermaid’s realm as she informed Queen Azalea about the whole ordeal and handed her the tablet given to her by Damien to her family.

Her family sighed in relief over the news. They immediately took the tablet and video called Latria.

“Hey, I’m your bestfriend. Couldn’t you at least tell me”Estelle cried as she Latria.

“I’m sorry, Estelle. Lord Damien was in a haste to send us off”

As they all took rounds to talk to Latria, Queen Azalea called Alexa aside.

“Thank you for today”

“It was my pleasure, my queen”

“By the way, did something happen? You look a bit down”

Alexa forced a smile to the best of her efforts”No, nothing happened”

“Really?”

“Yes, my Queen”

“Fine then. Hold on a minute”Queen Azalea brought out a small container and handed it to Alexa.

“What’s this?”

“A gift. Please accept it”

Alexa shook her head”My Queen, this was my mission. I don’t need a gift”

Queen Azalea took Alexa’s hand in hers”Please take it. Who knows? It might come in handy someday”

Unsettled, Alexa took the container”Thank you”

As Alexa headed back to her realm, she stared at the small shining container.

What could be inside? she thought. As she was about to open it, she saw a black, grey, brown and white wolf approaching her at fast speed and she screamed.

She threw her hands in the air, causing the container to fly out of her grip.

The wolves transformed back to their forms and a cheeky Eren could be seen laughing.

“It was you guys?”Alexa asked  on disbelief.

“Oh Sorry, we didn’t mean to scare you”Eren said laughing out loud.

Alexa smacked him”Stop laughing”

Mikasa bit his lips suppressing his urge to laugh”Well, it was quite funny though”

Warren scanned around the area”What brought you here?”

“Work. I have to get going now. Later, guys”

“Later” They called out after her.

Warren suddenly saw a small shining container on the ground”What’s this?”

He picked it up as he brushed off the dust from it’s surface.

Did Alexa drop this? He thought.

He opened it and inscribed inside  it was a tiny writing that read; May your love come true.

“What do you have there?”Jerrire asked seeming to be the first to notice Warren.

Warren hid the container behind his back”It’s nothing. Let’s go”
