6 Can I Kill You?

The iron that Lia had been holding had now fallen to the floor. The iron was the weapon she would want to use to protect herself if maybe Prince Aerus and Hamdi did something bad to her. However, before Lia managed to protect herself, Prince Aerus had strangled her very strongly.

Lia's face had almost turned purple. She tried to release Prince Aerus' hand that was strangling her neck, but it couldn't move away because Prince Aerus had a strong grip. With a gasping breath, Lia pleaded again, more pathetic than before, "Let me go! Please, I beg you!" Lia's eyes were already watery, Prince Aerus' angry face had started to blur in her vision.

Hamdi began to feel anxious, especially when he saw that Prince Aerus did not seem to be releasing Lia soon. Now he approached him, and said somewhat nervously, "Prince, stop it! You can kill her! If she is killed then you will fail to get a child!"

However, Hamdi's suggestion did not open Prince Aerus's eyes at all. His stern and rough face were still filled with anger, as well as his golden eyes that had turned red. The sunlight coming in from outside the balcony shone through his hair, making him looked handsome as if he wasn't real.

Anger exploded inside Prince Aerus's head. The incident last night and how he touched Lia without stopping seemed to have no trace in his heart. There was only regret, and also hatred for the way of life that he lived.

He secretly blamed Lia, in very piercing and hateful whispers. "If you weren't alive then I wouldn't have gone through this. If you don't exist then I will be able to find a better mate. You'd better die!"

Hamdi gasped in surprise. He immediately pulled the body of Prince Aerus so that he would release Lia, and so that he would stop strangling Lia. His white flight suit clashed with his silver hair. Both seemed to glow quite brightly in the morning sun.

"Prince Aerus, wake up! Prince, she is the only mate that you have. If she dies then you won't be able to have a chance to get a child. You have to remember that Elfagos can only have offspring from their mates. I beg you to wake up!"

However, Prince Aerus's anger was still at its peak. So he jolted Hamdi until he fell on the floor. Meanwhile, Lia was now almost passed out in her strangulation.

Hamdi became increasingly panicked. He couldn't let this happen, because if Prince Aerus killed Lia then Prince Aerus would not be able to have children. In that case, the heir of the Hexodar Kingdom would not be able to be obtained by the Horbin clan, the clan of the family of Prince Aerus.

If the Hexodar Kingdom fell into the hands of the Qobra clan, then Hamdi could predict that Hexa would have difficult times at that time. Because the Qobra clan was known to be unprofessional with the civilization, they only strengthened allies from the kingdoms in Hexa, then made a bond with the nobles only.

Hamdi pulled Prince Aerus's back. Now his voice has risen, as soon as he saw Lia was going to faint. "Prince Aerus! Stop doing this! You can kill her! You can destroy your own life, you can destroy Hexa too!

"Prince, don't let war break out just because you can't have offspring. Don't let the Qobra clan invade the Hexodar Kingdom and try to overthrow you someday. Remember how your ancestors built the Hexodar Kingdom back then. Remember! Remember King Artesun and Queen Lunanis! Don't let them disappointed with you! Don't let them get killed in a coup!"

Prince Aerus instantly froze. His strangulation was no longer strong, and it made Lia let go of him and fell on the floor weak and coughing. In the end, Prince Aerus could only be made aware of the lives of his parents that could be lost because of a coup, especially since Prince Aerus had heard of coups recently. His red eyes slowly dimmed slightly.

Prince Aerus passed, at the area of ​​the door leading to the balcony. He turned his back on Lia and also Hamdi. Hamdi drew closer to him and tried his best to calm him down. A one-sided conversation could be heard filling the room, with Prince Aerus mute because the anger had not yet fully come out of his head.

On the other hand, Lia was crawling on the floor, trying to find the air she had not had a moment ago. After she was able to calm herself down, Lia now grabbed her iron which had fallen on the floor.

Then she reached for the cell phone that was under the pillow. In a somewhat staggered motion, she stood up. Her footsteps were a bit withered and weak as she tried to reach the exit of her flat.

'I have to get out of here first, otherwise, I will die. After that, I'm going to be able to report them both to the police. But most importantly I have to get out first.'

Lia dragged her feet carefully. She even held her breath so as not to sound noisy. Her hands gripped the phone and iron tightly, and she was determined not to let go of them.

Just before she could touch the doorknob, Prince Aerus had caught her. His intuition was very sharp. So when Prince Aerus saw Lia, he immediately raised his hand and released his telekinesis power.

Lia's body froze, as if bound, then her body slid backward so fast that her body hit the wall hard. Lia groaned. Her head which was bowed down due to the pain was now raised because Prince Aerus pinched her chin quite roughly.

"Want to run away? You think you can run away from me?" Prince Aerus sounded mocking, but there was a hint of disappointment in his voice.

Lia started to get goosebumps and sobbed. Tears rolled down her cheeks, she was scared. Last night Lia was amazed by Prince Aerus' good looks, even though it only happened in a few seconds. But now there was nothing left in Prince Aerus' good looks. For Lia, Prince Aerus was just a devil who wanted to kill her.

"What do you want? Please let me go!" Lia trembled as she said that. She could only plead amid threats after threats from Prince Aerus. After all, the situation she was in right now made Lia unable to do anything but plead. When she felt the pinch on her chin getting harder, Lia could only close her eyes and endure the pain. Prince Aerus had great strength.

"I? You ask what I want?" Prince Aerus lowered his head, looking at Lia's eyes and also her face which he forced to look up. Inside Prince Aerus' eyes still contained hatred. "Honestly, I want you to die. But because I still need you then I can't do it. I was thinking maybe Mirah energy in my body couldn't activate because you're still alive. Some Elfagoses' Mirah energy can only be awakened by their mate, but that condition is very rare. And I've heard that if the mate dies then the Elfagos will be able to live a normal life. So what do you think? Can I kill you?"
