Guilty

Some hours later:

Easton came down along with Asher and Aanya, the movement made Aanya get up..they were in her room..Aanya's magic rope's powers were starting to wear off since she could feel the rope be coming looser on her hand..

Asher placed her down as he looked at her, as he held into the dead snake, Hissy.. Finally the rope fell and Aanya took the poor animal into her hands..she felt guilty since she felt un a way it was because of her Hissy died..she had been a faithful pet..

She held it close to her as she teared up and a drop of tear fell on Hissy..as she continued to wet it with her tears..

Easton and Asher looked at each other. Keeping quiet for a while Easton spoke..

Easton: Brother shouldn't she be thanking us?

Asher tapped his head and glared at him as if saying.. Shhh keep quiet..

Asher knew that maybe Hissy died protecting her and that's why she was feeling bad and perhaps even guilty..

Asher went to her as he placed his hand on her shoulders, Aanya turned and he noticed how red her eyes became..and suddenly,

She pounced in his embrace making Asher shocked he never expected her to do this initially he couldn't bear to see her weeping and he had never seen her so weak except when she went to meet her parents on earth thus he went there unconsciously..while Easton who was looking at them gaped..

"Did their relationship advance so much?" was all that he could think of..

Easton was about to look away when he saw something unusual..

Aanya who had drenched Asher with her tears when..

Easton couldn't keep quiet and let go of a sort of murmur..

"Bro...Bro.."

Asher turned and gazed at him, he...he was disturbing him..

Asher: What?

Easton pointed down while Asher followed his finger movement and also widened his eyes..

Asher: Aa..Aanya..

Aanya who was busy crying didn't hear him as Asher repeated and she lifted her head..

Aanya: Hmm..

Asher: That..snake...

Aanya: Hissy..

Asher: it's...moving..

Aanya froze what did he just said?..

Aanya: Whhat?

Asher nodded and immediately Aanya let him go and turned to see Hissy only to see the animal moving..she didn't know what to feel, she was sure that Hissy died but..nevertheless she left Asher's embrace and went to give Hissy a hug...

It took some time for everyone to recompose when they realised a serpent goddess had immense powers especially in her tears, that could act as medicine and even give back life to some animals.. while Hissy was in his cute little bed taking rest after all the poor animal had been through quite a lot today.

Making sure, Aanya was alright Asher was about to leave when Aanya held his hand making a small pink blush on Asher's cheeks and his heartbeats increase.

Aanya: Thank you for...today..

Asher nodded..

Aanya: How did you guys know that I was there?

Asher sighed as he revealed everything thus Aanya thanked Easton, he in way went against his own mother but helping her.

Aanya: But how will you guys go back?

Easton: Don't worry sister in law...(Asher glaed at him while Aanya was dumbfounded) I...I mean ruler of the fire realm..I can fly since I am an Owl god..and thus..I..

Easton kept quiet when he saw Aanya approaching him..

Easton: I..I..mm Aanya...you..

Aanya held his hands as she looked at his arms, and she could clearly see he was injured.. That injury was when they were fleeing from the big python it seemed he was injured on his wings maybe

She passed her hands on his injury making it heal instantly..

Easton smiled at her while in the corner Asher felt a bit sour he didn't like how she was giving him attention and was touching him..which didn't leave the sight of Easton and he was sure to tease his brother about it..

Finally the two were about to go when..

Asher stopped and signalled Easton to go on as he gave Aanya a bracelet..

Aanya : This..

Asher: I..have the same and hence we shall be able to communicate..

Aanya smiled, Asher knew he shouldn't be close to her but his heart wouldn't rest without knowing whether she was alright or not.

While, the next morning..
