BXBX NOVEL Chapter 147 - Please Come Back With Us !
CRIMOND HILL,
Esme's aura was frightening enough to scare Ester terribly. The chain on her hands were still glistening like a deadly weapon which could slash him into pieces in no time. The magic balls in his palms immediately lit off because of his anxious stable of mind.
He knew that what those chain could do to his body. Once a fairy could complete all the trials, she would receive this honour of enduring this iron magical chain that could easily cut others except its master, the barrier of that chain. Acknowledging the power of that chain, a clever fairy wouldn't ever dare to challenge the opponent naturally.
When the guards witnessed such an unexpected scenario, they couldn't help but bow their heads longer in order to show their respect towards her powers.
Ester stumbled few steps back as her dangerous figure approached closer. Pointing at her chain nervously, Ester sutured feeling his breathing raid in fear,
" Serena!! You..you can't use it over me..you can't.."
Esme paused with a bit before replied with mockery,
" Why can't I Ester? According to the law,the master of this chain can use it over anyone that she wants."
Ester gulped repeatedly and gave her an unreasonable excuse that made Esme burst into laughter,
" Because.. because..no matter what I am your biological brother by blood.."
As soon as his words left out from his tongue, Esme's bitter laughter echoed in the air of Crimond Hill loudly. She laughed so hard that her eyes teared up with mixed feelings and replied keeping her eyes locked over Ester blankly,
" Brother?? You have the gut to address you as my brother, Ester? Did you forget that what have you done to me?"
Ester was silent before swallowing hard without uttering a single word. Esme sighed mesrably before started circling the man who had caused her so much pain, humiliation,
" Remember that I begged you to leave my child alone but you never heard me. Didn't you?? You have boasted in front of everyone that I had given birth to a cursed child and I should be banned from my own world? You made my mother hate me so much that she never wishes to see my face?"
She paused before lifting up the chain in the air and gave a whip on his back hardly. Ester screamed out in pain before dropping down over the ground and heard her tone again bitterly,
" Tell me one reason that I should let you go today?I begged you on my knees and told you that Ayra would never appear in your world. Let her grow without any trouble. But you dared to attack my little girl with a bunch of heartless traitors in front of my eyes."
Esme paused between her words and stopped in front of his fallen head. Gazing down harshly, she added proudly,
" But you seem to forget that Esme Chole can save anyone if she wants. I have achieved my own powers without anyone's help. Still, I didn't refute that day and left the castle quitely to save my baby. But what about today?"
Esme's eyes darkened more as she resumed looking down at his figure coldy,
" Today you still have dared to appear in front of my daughter, what made you think that I would forgive that I will let you go this time?"
She finished her words loudly as her voice rang in each corner of the hill banging loudly. Lifting the chain once again, her whipping continued over his back mercilessly.
Ester was glued with the ground and screamed out in pain drastically. Each whipping was piercing through his skin leaving a deep lined mark and made his blood flowing vigorously. A part of his left wing was broken after brushing against the chain as he let out a loud groan.
All of his bones turned numb as if moving a bit would cause him death. He knew that iron chain could hurt him to death without any chance.
He managed to spit out a few words of pleading,
" Esme, please..let..let go..me..It is hurting too much..I will never come back here.."
Esme sneered coldly clasping the chain in her palm and was ready for another round while saying,
" Hurting?? Did you know Ester how much I felt heartbroken during this seven years? My mother,my family all weren't willing to meet for once. I couldn't even see my baby whenever I wanted. You haven't paid me enough."
She ended her words with a hungry snarl before continuing her whipping once again. Whip,whip!!
Ester's whole back was flooded with warm blood as he couldn't even tilt up his own head naturally. He knew that no magic or spells could be enough to stop this chain. Thus he could see that his death was coming closer.
Looking down at his pale face, Esme lifted up her chain one last time and inteneded to whip once again but her hand was paused midway suddenly.
Breathing restlessly, she put down the chain and spoke in a low voice,
" But still I don't want to dirt my hands with my own bloodline Ester. I am leaving your life this time only because of my mother. She loves you too much and considers you one of her own child. She deserves to know your real face."
Curling up into a cold smirk, Esme continued ina deep voice,
" I think that she will get to know it soon once my real brother gets back his deserved position. Hatred is more powerful than harming."
Ester vaguely heard her words and shuddered a little. If the Queen get to know everything, his punishment will be far more severe than this.
He whimpered over the ground painfully and watched Esme retreating from the corner of his eyes. As soon as Esme backed up from hurting him, the leader of guards quickly made his way towards Esme.
Blocking her path, he knelt down over the ground and pleaded bowing her head,
" PRINCESS, don't leave us anymore. You have regained your powers. Please come back with us. We will persuade Queen Melinda together. We need you for our clan. Please punish us however you want but just get back with us."
Esme paused in her track and looked down at the gaurd who changed their mind at once as soon as they saw her powers.
Indeed this world is full of selfishness. Once you have power,they are ready to lick your boot.
But Esme wasn't planning to return just because they requested. She left with humiliation but wanted to return with dignity.
Averting her eyes far away, she replied coldly,
" It's not right time to return. I can only request you all to keep quite about Ayra's existence. After the coronation ceremony ends,I will go back with my brother. Till then,I can't cause trouble appearing their for my brother. Please leave from here after taking your master away."
The gaurds had nothing to say as they understood that her scar had turned too deeper. Bowing one last time, they followed her order and shifted towards Ester slowly.
Ayra watched her mommy in admiration and jumped down from Carol's arms hurriedly. Running over to Esme, she hugged her knees and cheered,
" Mommy is awesome! "
Esme smiled before scooting down to kiss her cheek gently. Ayra smiled widely before asking back unknowingly,
" Mommy, that bad Uncle called me cursed child."
She blinked before continuing,
" Mommy, what cursed child means?"
Esme's smile quickly faded away as her expression dropped drastically.
MOONSHINE CASTLE,
The entire courtyard was filled with all kinds of guards who were in charge of protect the castle tonight. Each one of them had startled expression and was shivering inwardly.
Their king held a deathly face which could destroy the heaven and earth anytime. Even Jasper was sweating inside including Viviana whose face was downcast.
Aaron was sitting beside the bonfire over a chair as the guards was gathered up aside. His eyes never left the bonfire but the heart wrenching pain was far more severe than the fire ahead.
Tapping on the handle of chair, he asked in a husky voice,
" Tell me,how did two people go vanish from my castle? What were you guys doing? "
The leader of guards trembled vigorously as Jasper gestured him to reply fast. Swallowing down his saliva nervously, he muttured hesitantly,
" My..my ..Lord..we are always alerted..We..we really haven't seen Lady leaving the castle.."
As soon as his answer came out, Aaron's expression turned furious. With a twing of his fingers, a flicker from the bonfire quickly travelled towards the leader's way speedily. Falling upon his loosened pant, it started burning immediately.
The leader screamed out in astonishment later after in pain before scrunching down over the ground.
Choking on his words, he repeatedly said enduring the burning pain,
" I am telling the truth lord. Please believe us. We really haven't seen her leaving."
The other guards squeezed at a corner in fear and shivered vigorously after watching their leader howling in pain.
Looking up at Jasper dangerously, Aaron asked in a cold voice,
" Tell me,how you want to die Jasper?"
