The confession (Her dilemma)
He followed her and stopped her, she pushed him. He held her again this time firmly and closer.
She did not looked at him. While, he read her thoughts
"Stay away Arron. I don't want to hurt you." Again she tried to free herself when his words made her stop her movements
"I will get hurt if you tell me to stay away from you Aella." She again thought, "Why is he so stubborn ?"
He again replied "Are not you stubborn ? Why do you resist me ?" She again thought, "Why don't you leave me ?"
He again replied, "Why don't you accept me ?" His eyes held longing for her love while she was firm to push his feelings away.
He freed her from his grip, as she was about to leave. He said "I can hear you, when you don't even speak. I can feel your pain when you are hurt. I just cannot leave you Aella. You have become the trouble of my heart a ravishing trouble that I cannot even get rid of nor I can sort it out."
Aella did not turn around and coldly said, "The king has to die tonight the mist of dreams will end with every spell your role ends here and the demon he is mine to slay." Her words hurt him but she had no other way.
Arron kept distance from her rest of the day. It made her restless as she stole glances of him, while he prepared for war.
He was quite which made Neil and Alga curious they wanted to know the reason as they went closer to him. Without glancing at them he said in his serious tone, "A little match two against one."
Alga understood he is angry so he wanted to make him feel better and replied, "Fine! To make it fair I will stay in human form throughout the match and Neil won't sneak attack."
He held the pain of her ignorance and cold behavior inside him, it must be brought out before it destroys him from inside. He had swords in his both hands fearlessly attacking, dodging every move.
It was an amazing match Aella found about it and she ran towards the site. As their eyes met, he lost his focus and got a small cut on his chest by Neil. This made her furious and she ordered them to stop.
She tried to check on his wound but he covered it stopping her. Giving her cold look and blunt expression he said, "Do not worry chief. I was just warming up for tonight as this is our last meeting. I wanted to give my best."
Neil and Alga looked at Alfiyya as she was also clueless, knowing nothing about this. When Aella commanded her to go after him and treat him.
Arron shed a lone tear he was hurt by Aella's coldness. She kept rejecting his love, his thoughts were interrupted, when Alfiyya said in her soft voice, "She cares for you, it's just that she is afraid. She will never confess. Please do not force her."
Her potion's drop that fell on his wound healed him which was gifted to her by someone who treasured it from garden of Wanderer.
He looked at her clueless thinking why everyone wants me to stay away from her, as he said, "I feel like I will not breathe if she is not by my side please tell her to be selfish and accept me." Alfiyya was speechless and without answering she left him, thinking why this had to happen ?
It was third day's night. Armies of knight were all in their deep slumber due to the effect of magical plants around the valley.
There were many corrupted officials too which were still in royal palace. Ready to fight anything they split in two groups.
Aella wore a silver beautiful gown, along with the blue cloak that Arron gifted her. She just wanted to look good for him. She did this for the first time. Meiki was all ready to attack with the trio.
As soon as the portal was created Aella froze the time and in a second, along with her army she ambushed the palace, she looked at Arron who nodded as a signal she jumped on his horse sitting on it.
Her back touching his chest. They both shot arrows with a single bow 6 arrows at a time. It was a Grand goblet Aella felt weak, but she had to do it and in no time they succeeded.
The effect of Mist along with every spell made Dark Highness weak in human form. Meanwhile Alfiyya, Neil and Meiki blocked the cold valley by the strategy of Arron, according to their estimate they had 4 hours left to deal with Dark Highness.
Aella was now ready to kill the king. The effect of dark spells faded, the corrupted were imprisoned everyone knew what king did to Aella's father, king was guilty for everything and he had no way out of it.
Suddenly the leader of Black Clan spoke "long live the king" this made king laugh like a maniac. He ordered the leader to kill Earl Arron and Aella but he stopped laughing.
The fear visible on his face as he heard the leader saying, "the king is no more." Aella smirked and shot king with the triple shot arrows. The special shot taught by Arron, killing him brutally she said "thus filth deserves hell."
Victory was there as the crown prince took the throne, who was kind and noble man. Her eyes searched for Arron but she could not find him anywhere.
She decided what she had to do and no one will stop her from doing it, but the thought made her shiver when she remembered, she is not the one Earl Arron Black was destined to. The real Aella died long ago.The Aella who was supposed to marry him is not living anymore.
Her dilemma made her unable to think and act. The dilemma, whether she should listen to her mind and stay focused on her mission or she should listen to this alien organ of her, the thing called as heart and be selfish just for once. It troubled her..
