Special gift

“I didn’t say that…, all I have to do is get her a bangle” the thought came to Alex., yes! A bangle!”

“Yes! Why didn’t we think about it earlier?” Sandra said so excitedly.

“Yeah,” Alex was so excited, too. "Lilian can still go to school. She will learn to control her magic by always putting on her bangle."

“What is this?” Lilian was curious, but Sandra shakes her head. She didn’t want Alex to tell her what it was,

“Uh…, sweetheart, this is a gift from your mother and me, uh… we want you to always put it on, don’t take it off no matter what. "

“But why?”

“Uh. Lilian,” Sandra took over the talking, “You see, this will protect you from bad people, it will also keep you safe, so under no circumstances should you take this off, understand?” she nods and smiles at them.

“Thank you, mummy, thank you, dad, am I going back to school tomorrow?”

“Of course,” they both said, smiling at her.

“I’m so sorry,” Alex whispered in Sandra's ear, he has made her go through a lot, and he was still making her go through a lot.

“Is fine, I love you,”

“I love you so much”. He squeezes her hands and kisses her cheeks. He wonders if he can get another woman like Sandra. She’s the only woman that he’s so afraid to lose.

Does he keep thinking if he loses her will he can live? Even though it seems he is under a spell that makes him want to run after every beautiful lady, he knows he won’t be able to live with any of them. He will always want Sandra beside him.

He will always want to come back home to her.

The next day, Evelyn arrived at the council and instead apologize to the council.

I’m sorry for any damage this might have caused, Alex has never tried to rape me, it was all a misunderstanding” she bows before the council her eyes sparkling and moving from one elder to the other, she hopes they will not take this to another level.

Because from what she heard about this council, they killed people without Mercy.

The man at the high table cleared his throat before speaking, making Alex wonder if they always have something stuck in their throats anytime they want to speak.

“Is fine, we’ve heard you miss Evelyn, you may go” he turned to the rest of the elders in council and dismissed the case.

"Yes!” Alex was so happy that he rushed out only to meet Lincoln, scolding Evelyn.

“How did you get those papers in the first place?” Evelyn ask her father, she didn’t remember telling her father about her plans of getting a doctor’s report, so how did he get his hands on those papers?

“That is not important now. You just succeeded in making me a liar before the council, and do you know what that means?”

"In as much as I don’t know what it means, I will not destroy the man I love,” Evelyn, yells at her father and he ordered his men to seize her.

“You will do no such thing” Alex stopped the man from getting close to her.
