Hearing the voice it sounded familiar jogging through her memory found out it was the stranger she met today.
"Why are you here"
"I came to speak to you"
"But I can't see you"
"Let's leave this place"
Standing up from the mat since everyone was asleep with the fire torchlight which was about to go down she leaped from one mat to the other until she was outside.
"Hold onto me"
"Why"
"You grew up to talk too much I see"
"You did know me when I was little isn't it"
"Shhh close your eyes"
"I…."he used his other hand and closed her eyes,she tried to free his hand from her eyes.
"Where am I"
"You are in my house"
"Wow this place looks so beautiful isn't this a castle are you a prince"
"No am not"
Touching the walls and the designs which were on the wall "then what are you?"
"An immortal"
"Do you take me for a fool those things don't exist in this world"
"They do exist"
"Why haven't I heard about it"
"The witches are causing trouble in the kingdom right now have you heard about it"
"No I haven't how did you know?"
"No time for questions"
"Can I know your name I have been following you around for some time now"
"My name is Adrian"
Looking straight at his face "your name is as beautiful as you"
They stared at each other for some seconds before Eleanor removed her eyes "you know my name already since you have been following me and If I may ask why are you following me?"
"You are my fated"
"Are you crazy?"eleanor asked annoyed how this Adonis talked to her
Adrian watched her face scrunched up on confusion which he wanted to see,amused he sat down at the closet chair intensely staring at her face.
It's been forever since he sat down to chat about non work related matters and a woman at that.
He watched her expression and smiled recollecting his self he frowned back,he's vowed not to smile unles his love returns to him.
He was sure she was going to return as she had promised him though he was the cause a mistake made once he prays it don't repeat itself.
With the immense power he held now no harm was going to come to her like the last time he was a human where he can be preyed upon like nothing.
Patiently waiting for her he wanted to be loyal,patient and faithful to his love,he usually attend the motels and courtesan house to have fun but nothing less than sleep with the women and leave there.
Trying to get attached to any woman was a sin and he doesn't want to disappoint her when she comes back.
"Earth to Adrian"Eleanor flicked her fingers in his face to bring him back from wherever he went.
"Don't try that again"
"What?"
"Your hands"pointing on how they nearly entered his eyes
"You were saying somethin….."
"Forget it"Adrian sharply discarded that conversation fast enough
********
"Sire someone is here for you"
"Who is that"
"Adrian"
"What are you waiting for let him in"
"Ok sire"
Adrian walked inside the court like he owned it,the king respected Adrian since he knew he was immortal which no one new.
Standing up from his throne "where have you been it felt like you went on exile"
"I was taking care of my fated which has gotten matured now"smiling
"Come sit down"
"It feels like the world went into chaos since I left"said Adrian looking at the king
"My messenger informed me about the uprising from the witches I had thought they were all annihilated that time"
"Some fled"
"They are the ones creating the uprising and causing havoc am I right"
"Yes and there is going to be a Great War that won't end simple like the one before"
"What do we do"
"Only one person can stop it or should I say end it"
"Do you know who is that"
"Yes"
"Let the person end it before it increases"
"She has no powers and she is also one of them"
"I don't understand by one of them"
"She is also a witch the people creating the problem among all the kingdoms"
"What? are you sure about it"
"Are you doubting me now"looking into the king's eyes
"No why would I"
"How is it going with your hankinton"
"I really need a heir to take after me but I can't break the promise I gave to my late wife"
REMEMBERANCE
Inside the king's chamber
Holding her on her cheek "My love I promise you I will come back and even if I don't come back you will always be in my heart"
"I know you will come back for me if you come back you don't see me don't get married to anyone love me forever"
"You have always been the one making my heart beat I don't think anyone can do that"
"Make sure you come back alive I have a good news to tell you"
"I love you Emma"
"I love you too George"
They got entangled that night since it was only that night they had with their self before the war.
PRESENT
"I can't bring myself to break that promise she had told me she had a good news for me that I should come back alive but I met her dead instead"tears streaming down his face
"Were you ready to die instead of her"asked Adrian
"I was never ready to die instead of her because she has been the one keeping me alive with her presence but after her death I died along with her I'm just a living corpse"
Patting his back "is okay everything happens for a reason do you have a clue of what the good news might be about"
"I believed she might be pregnant or maybe something else I don't know about" *sigh*
"What if she was pregnant"
