Chapter 48

~Fyla's POV~

I don't know what happened but there's a sudden burst of energy inside of me and it gave me the confidence to fight this black lady.

"W-what?" she asked surprised as I escape from her invisible trap or what that is. Both Kayelle and Rylon are not conscious. I wanna run towards them but this bitch prevents me.

I released my daggers and attacked her. My strength was on par with her, no, I think I am stronger. This energy inside me, I know that this is limited so I have to finish this fight before its gone.

"You—"

"Die." I said in gritted teeth as I moved faster to cut her head off but in a short moment I saw a guy in front of goddess Aite, he looked like he was protecting her and I was about to hit him so I stopped midway and just like that, they vanished. His eyes... They look and feel like love.

I looked around, finding them if they are still here and I saw them at a corner. The goddess is now unconscious at the arms of the man. This mans rose is the brightest red I've ever seen. He's just looking at her in pain. I walked towards them and stopped 5 feet away from them.

"W-who are you?" I asked and he smiled at me.

"I am the god of love, Eros. This beautiful lady I'm carrying is my beloved. I'm sorry for all of this. We will leave now." he said and vanished again not giving me a chance to speak. The room is back at it's original form now.

"Rylon?! " I shouted but he's nowhere.

"RYLON?!" I shouted again.

"No..." I whispered and chose to find Kayelle instead.

"Kayelle?? Are you with me?? Kayelle?!" I said and tears continued to fall on my eyes to his face.

"Tears...? Needles... NO!" I shouted when I realized what caused him this pain.

"D-don't touch them. Y-you'll hurt yourself." he whispered.

"It's nothing. I'd rather choose pain than to lose you." I said plucking one needle out. It doesn't hurt as much but it sure do feel like thousands of needles pierced through my skin with just one needle of goddess Aite's tears. I tried to hide the pain from Kayelle but the more I pluck out, the more it hurts. The needles are 2 inches long and almost half of it are stuck on his skin.

"Lie down." I said as I gently lie him down. I continued to pluck out the needles and it's over a hundred. This mf is lucky to be alive. I looked at the tip of my hands and well, they're bleeding now. I never thought that holding a needle would—

"I told you. It will hurt you." Kayelle said as he tried to get up. I forced him to lie down again.

"I'm okay. It's nothing. Heal yourself first." he assured me.

I tried to fight my tears as best as I can. Why? Just why must they kill each other? Why do I have to be the Keeper? Why does it have to be this way? If I die won't it end all? Would they be safe?

"K-kayelle." I whispered as he took my hand and clasped it with his.

"I'm going to turn on my flirt mode. I don't like what you're thinking right now. Your face shows that you've already made up you're mind. Don't, Fyla." he said as he kissed the tips of my fingers while I was here, crying my f*cking heart out. I don't even know where my brother is or how is he.

"I'm sorry." he whispered and smiled at me.

"It's okay. You gave me a head start before kissing my f*cking fingers." I said sarcastically. He let go of my hand and sighed. I sat down comfortably on the wall while he lay on the floor.

"You're not healing." I whispered and he looked at me smiling. It's not the time to be smiling dumbass.

"You may not be able to see you're brother again. If the needles were lethal to me, it's just the same as my sword is lethal to him."

I just stared at him blankly. I don't know what to do anymore.

"I guess this was another punishment for me, for doubting you in the past. I doubted whether you're the real Keeper or not because, you, yourself at that time was broken. I-It's another f*cked up past haha...

You, your past life, it's definitely not past though haha. You don't have your body but your soul remained, Rylon's original sister had no soul but her body remained, making you "ONE".

Riella and Phonias was destined for each other. He was the one who knew that you really are the Keeper. He... He hid it very well, even from goddess Aite, me and the gods/goddesses who made you. He... He was going to sacrifice his life for you but in the end... goddess Aite took over him and you died. He broke your soul. Your rose. I really don't know why your soul hasn't disappeared but I guess, it's a chance for me to correct my mistakes." Kayelle said looking me in the eyes. Upon hearing this, I felt an excruciating pain on my head and I heard a long beep sound. Memories flooded my head of what happened in Riella's life. I closed my eyes as I tried to relax and opened them when I heard Kayelle...His breathing... no.

"What happened to Rylon's original sister?" I asked. This time, I don't plan on holding my tears. I just let it flow.

"She... was also broken. She can't handle it anymore and Phonias couldn't do anything about it. Her Eversor took her soul. He knows that the soul inside her sister's body is not the real one. This is just a fake family. It is his disguise but he got too attached. He got love and he also needs to be loved too. "

"Stop. Kayelle. Just stop." I whispered.

"Let's get you inside my room. You should rest there. Go back to Kielle form." I ordered and he just followed. I took him to my room and he feels so cold. Its as if he is dead.

"Don't cry. I'm not dead yet." Kayelle said and cupped my cheeks to wipe my tears. I laid him on the bed, covered him with the blanket and sat beside him.

"Well I guess, soon I'll be dead." he added and chuckled.

"F*ck you bitch. I won't allow it." I said annoyed while wiping my tears.

"It's alright. I have been always prepared."

"No. We aren't. What about Garrett?" I asked and held his hand.

"He knows."

"No... Kayelle...."

...

"It's okay... Urgh. If only I could kiss you now. I'll definitely do it."

"You're dying and you have the guts to joke around?!" I said angrily. He pouts pointing at the door and King was standing there.

"Its alright. Kiss him." he said in a challenging tone. He walked towards us and he has this calm angelic look.

"Are you both insane?! Can't you see how serious this situation is?!!! Argh!!"

"Just fulfill this dying old man's wish. Its his first and last." King said and I was just in awe. I can't believe them.

"You're just saying that. For sure later you'll be like this and that." I said and stood up.

"Rest. I'll call Garrett so he can take care of you. You can kiss here or whatever naughty things the both of you want to do. Just. Don't. Die." I said and pulled King out. Kayelled just laughed.

"Why are you here?" I asked King.

"Why? Can't I just visit my love? I felt that you need me."

"Yeah yeah—mhmm!"

King suddenly kissed me. It was a gentle and long one. I feel that my whole body blushed. He pulled me in his arms and just let me cry there for minutes.

"Can't we do naughty things too?"

"Shut up."

"Alright. Alright. I can wait.... I love you"

"Hmmhm... I love you too."

I need to find my brother.
