Anxious heart

Iiana Pov

She was walking back and forth. See this? I hate this. I am getting anxious, scared... and.. and... ugh! I stop and sat on my bed.

I haven't seen Kuro for the past few weeks. Just when I finally accept the fact that I was going overboard and being stupid, the man in question was gone. I sat there replaying the last time I was with him and couldn't help but feel I was really, really wrong and shouldn't act like that. I mean come on, Iiana! You're grown up woman. Other women would probably give their man a silent treatment for one or two days but you take the cakes! Two weeks! It will be no wonder if he's gone by now and finding another wifey, somewhere and getting his little junior some actio-

My eyes pool with tears but it refused to fall. Just imagining that made my heart ache. 'Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.'

I bite my lips and hate that I didn't leave this part of me back in the earth. Insecurity. Foolishness. Fear. Procrastination that eventually lead to helpless not knowing where to start and ask forgiveness.

"Kuro was just being a husband and a man. What he asked for me is not something impossible and something that I should give either way. Serves me right, if he's exploring other people caves and leave me." And this kind of talk to myself? It does help stopping my tears at all, or the ache inside my heart. It only make me want to cry more. I stood up and went to the window, jumping out from the inn room.

Sheesh. No, I'm not committing suicide.

I got quite sturdy body, plus I don't think three storeys inn would kill me. I fly around to clear my head. I am not letting my emotion weaken me and god knows when I let it drag me down, I could cry a bucketful of tears. No. Not going to happen. I need to find something to entertain me.

****************

A man with his entourage stop not too far. The man touch his temple, rubbing it.

"Doesn't that woman look familiar to you?"

All of them shook their head fast.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, yes yes"

The man look at the woman with a frown. Then another man came. He followed the train of view of the man in front of him and saw a woman. Slowly, he look back at the man in front of him.

"Why? Did you caught her fancy?" He said lightly. He was acting like nothing And that made the whole entourage respected him more.

"No. I don't think so" Shook his head.

"Good. Now, let's go. We need to go to the Manor and resolve this issue before its too late."

They left the place. The entourage at the back gave one final glance at the woman, before giving her a silent respect bow. None of them forget that day. Just to be sure, they patted their hip to make sure the armour that protect their family jewel was on and nodded in satisfaction.

"You ungrateful bastard!!!!"

PAP!!!! A resounding slap echoed on the dark street. The man grab the collar of the boy before raising him up easily. The boy was so thin like a stick branch. He had bruises around his body and oddly, he had a silver hair and eyes.

The man was disgusted to see the boy.

Who doesn't know about this boy here? 10 years and a month ago, before he was born. The whole family branch was living peacefully and harmonious. His brother married a beautiful wife and then they got their first born, son. He was always the shadow of his eldest brother and got jealous of him. Not to mention his beautiful wife that he got!

But rumours began spreading around, saying that the Newborn son is the son of a devil. White hair and silver eyes. A bad omen. That was where it become a great show for him. The wife died a year later after becoming bedridden for three months. His brother had tried so hard to be strong, but one by one lose from his grasp. All thanks to his cunning plots. In the end, he killed his brother and got the main family within his grasp. But sadly, he only had daughters, none which can become the heir of the family. None which the elders agreed. They still choose the devil child as the heir which is why he could kick him out the house.

Doesn't mean he couldn't make his life miserable.

The boy glare at him, with a deathly stare. that irked him even more. He abused and took everything from the boy, that ought to broke him but instead he held a stronger fighting spirit in him and continue to oppose me, even when he knew it was hopeless.

He punched the boy face, and blood run down his face. That made him grin.

"If I can kill your parents, I can kill you too, devil child"

The boy spat on his face and laughs.

"And yet that spit still warm, isn't it?" That made the man explode in fury. He threw the boy on the ground.

"See if you're not dead before the sun rise." He kicked the boy couple of times before ordering servants to beats the little boy in group. Even until the end, the boy hateful glare never left his uncle.

"I swear, even if I die, No matter how many lifetime I had to take, I'll find you and rain terror unto you and your family, uncle. I will make sure you remember and pay every inch of this so called cursed that you gave me and my family" shout the boy, getting dragged.

"Impudent!!! Servants!!! Cut his fingers and tongue! Let him taste what terror means" the man laughed out loud and left the courtyard.

There, I was watching from above the tree and smiled devilishly.

"Found it" oh, the man was just pure evil and I wouldn't mind helping a cute little boy whose about to lose his life. It'll be fun. Since they just pissed me off with their sadistic smiles.

What shocked me the most was that they started to take off the boy's pants and their own.

Are they going to do what I think they are going to do?? To a boy??!!! I was really shocked that it totally frozen me up. To witness the cruelest thing I ever seen in my life, It took me few minute to finally gain my sanity to stop the them. And i was mad at myself for not acting quick enough. They had sodomised the boy and the way the boy act, it seems like this wasn't his first time. he was clenching his teeth And fists with hatred burning on his eyes. My heart goes out to him and my wrath fall on those barbaric men.

I hold my palm out and the bangle on my arm changed to a weapon that I had thought of. Dual red flaming swords snaked on my hands, I jumped behind the group of the men who were currently fucking the boy. In a blink of an eye, the man head rolled down to the ground. That shocked the whole group. I didn't give them time to scream, and activated silent spell around the area of effect. No matter how loud they scream, it couldn't be heard outside of the perimeter of the AOE of the spell. I flicked my hand and vines shot out to root the men on their places. Its funny to see all grown men without their pants on, cursing and trembling with fear.

"Ahhhh... you know fear too... I had thought all of you had lose your ability to feel or think, since you are doing something inhumane to a young boy."

"W-who are you??? Do you know who are you against with?"

I laughed out loud before smiling at them.

"Tsk." I clicked my tongue and took few step forward, slowly.

"I should ask the same. But well...you will learn it in no time. Boy, I wont ask if you are okay or not. But I'm going to ask you this. What do you want to do?"

The boy who were standing there naked trembled with fear, eyes not leaving the head of the man who had violated him. But the moment he heard me, if seems that he finally notice my presence was surprised to hear my question.

"Can I ask for anything?"

"As long as it within my capability, yes"

"I want them to feel the worse torture before killing them."

I grinned and gave him a flair of bow.

"Boy, its your lucky day!Your wish shall be granted." I laughed and controlled the 'extra' vines to move toward each of the man. And these extra coincidentally had a barbed thorn on them.

"You know, it is so convenient that you guys lost your pants somewhere. So easy for these vines to find holes to enter."their eyes widen, when they saw a thick, barbed vines swaying back and forth on their face before slowly sliding down to their lower part.

"I call it a sinner tentacles fiesta. Its gonna hurt lot,but i know that you guys can hold it.cuz you're adult. Even this pretty little boy can handle your dicks a couple of times. Surely,you wont lose to this boy right?" My lips curved upward. As the symphony of screaming and cursing began.

Blood trailed down their legs,but mercy never come. I look at the boy.

"Will that be to you satisfactory?" The boy nodded.

"Do you want to kill them yourself?"

The boy glare at the men and then nodded.

I gave him another dagger that I had strapped on my thigh. The boy quickly looked away as he saw me lifting my skirt. Cute boy.

I gave him the signal to wait. Disgustingly, all of the man had their dick stick out and had their release despite the unbearable pain. How sick is that? I nodded. And the boy strike where ever he want. I don't understand the choice of the place he stabs, i figured only he and the men know why. So, I wont ask him.

Te men was left to bled to death. There were no scream nor cry can be heard anymore. I turned around and look at the boy.

"What do you want to do now?"

"Kill my uncle."

"With my help?"

"No."

"Are you capable to do it alone with that weak body?"

That stopped the boy.

"Leave him alive for couple more years. Train hard and pay him a visit next tme."the boy thought about it for a while. and finally relented.

"Then, will you adopt me.... lady..."

"Call me iiana. Sure, follow me. And I'll show you the best part of this world could offer. I have two daughters around your age. I'm sure you'll be okay with them" the boy nodded. I hold out my hand, and he gave me the dagger back, reluctantly. I took his hands and with my other hand I snapped my fingers and all the lying corpses burned it to ashes. We flew up to the sky. Uncaring for the carnage scene that we had left behind.
