We are in the room I was captured in, a place I dread and fear the most, but now in the same situation, I am enjoying.
We are playing, and no is the time for punishment, as we caught Lazarus, a royal vampire from centuries old.
I and ava are looking at Lazarus, who is slow for the time being, which makes me think that it is a plot.
Who cares if it is a plot or not, right now looking at Lazarus being punished makes me feel like its time for revenge.
'hehe, Selena, you love taking revenge, don't you?'
I thought and then giggled, snapping two heads towards me a di felt insecure after feeling two pairs of eyes on me.
Honestly, telling my life with my family is incredible, and with ava, I get warm vibes, and Lazarus is like an annoying uncle.
It would be better if the dad and brother were here, and my family moment would be complete by now.
'brother, I hope you are okay, take care of yourself even if I am not around.'
I thought, and then a lone tear escaped my eye and then two, which were wiped by a hand.
I looked up to see it was ava who wiped my tears, she gave me an encouraging smile and said
"missing alexander?"
She asked me with a gentle smile, making me feel a bit of courage, and my hopelessness was lost somewhere.
"yes, I miss him, won't be it good if he was here."
I said with tearful eyes like a child who was expecting his parents to give him more than one candy.
"Selena, we can't get him here."
she told me with a stern face, confusing me, now my face has a pout, and I looked at ava and asked
"why not?"
I asked, unaware of ava's mood change and the anger in her eyes, who would have known that I will hear this one day.
"his life can be in danger; you can handle it. He cant."
ava told me a smile which for once didn't reach her eyes; it looked so fake that I wanted to cringe
"ava are you out of your mind or something, and he is more powerful than me, truth to be told I am fairy by name, I am human."
I shouted at ava as she is a sounding crazy, and her words make no sense either.
"for goodness sake Selena, you are a queen behave like one."
Ava yelled at me, looking horrified as if I spoke something unspeakable or cursed to say.
"a what!!!!?"
I yelled at ava after hearing her words, like hell I can be a queen, I lost my princess title now suddenly she says that I am the queen.
"nothing"
Lazarus cut in as if trying to cover a lie or a truth, but why is he trying to cover it, and why from me?
"tel me, a queen of where huh, no one will marry a powerless fairy."
I yelled at the two, their words and their behavior make no sense at all, they look like trying to reveal yurt hide
"There is one who is fated to marry."
ava told me with a sulky face making me cringe for once and honestly, I hate that one person
"I won't marry him."
I told ava with a smirk, entirely sure that I will, never marry and save the guy from the burden of me
"oh, you will."
ava said sure that it would happen as if she knows what will happen in future, like too sure scaring me
"ava, what are you doing, she will get scared."
Lazarus cut in, finally he who never said more than a line instead of a single ord nothing decided to join
"if she has guts to question then she must have the power to hear the answers as well."
Ava yelled at Lazarus, who was only helping me by saving me from ava's rant, but poor him got in the mess instead.
My mind was in a blur and then looked at the two; one eye showed desperation; another pair of eyes showed fear.
fear to be caught or worse losing something important, something as precious as a diamond which made me think
'but hey, is she going on aggressive mode.'
"give her time to adjust."
Lazarus told ava in the calmest voice anyone can muster in this situation, which triggered ava more.
"time to adjust, Lazarus the time is up she needs to be prepared."
ava yelled at Lazarus who did nothing but to protect me from ava's rant, making her angry more and I go in thinking again
'ava behaves like I am someone she is close to or has blood relation, but I know where no more than a week, huh what is going on.'
I was full on thought, and then I decided to speak, I cant behave invisible just because they are treating me as invisible.
"I am still here, and I don't understand a single word."
I told them with a put, which was unnecessary and then looked at Lazarus who looked at me in fear.
'fear me for what, you are more powerful than me.'
I thought which was heard by Lazarus using his mind-reading power and then become his usual self.
"Selena just goes by the window and enjoy the scenery, and I will calm her."
Lazarus told me with an emotionless voice, but his eyes and whole face pleaded to obey him and not create more mess.
"This is not fair, and she needs to know."
Ava yelled at Lazarus as if he is trying to hide something that needs to be known by the whole world.
'huh rude, you can simply tell me what is with secrecy.'
I thought then pouted and looked right in Lazarus blood-red eyes and told him while glaring
"humph, ok."
I told him and stomped like a child to the study table, and which had a window, and I can see the scenery outside.
I turned to look at Lazarus and ava who were verbally fighting each other, and I saw that twice ava came to near me.
Honestly, every step she took toward me, I feel my heartbeat rise and feel like jumping out of the window nearby.
But Lazarus restrained her, and my heart can't bear any more of this torture of rising and falling heart rate.
I decided to look at the scenario and was lost in it, and the scene was entirely unexpected.
The scenario is different has many stars with a clear sky; it feels magical, making me smile.
The braid, the flowers, even the grass have an attraction. Honestly, I don't know how to define it.
There is one thing in the air for sure, the magic, the magic of nature, which forces a person to enjoy it.
I was so lost in the scenery that I lost track of time but a sudden tap on my shoulder made me go defensive mode.
I was so in a defensive mode that I threw a pencil on the study table towards my intruder
"whoa, Selena calms down, I won't hurt you."
A gruff voice with century-old dictionary words was used in the statement that came to me.
"I am so sorry; Lazarus, I was lost in time."
I apologized sadly about my behavior towards him. I always control myself but I can't control today.
It looks like my power is out of control, or my mind is out of control, I got no power duh.
"food id ready."
A feminine voice said, making me go stiff and feel like a wrong person or a useless person.
Lazarus patted my shoulder and then patted my head, which eas rejected by my body.
"Selena, I am here. She won't hurt you."
He told me with a confident voice and concern tone, which didn't make my fear go at all.
" yeah, just like telling that I miss brother make her trigger."
I mumbled that and was sure that no one heard it, but I forget that a vampire is in the room.
"Relax, will you. Don't force me to drink your blood."
Lazarus tld me with a stone face, but his eyes showed the mischief-making me go on teasing mode
"duh, I know you have control on your body, plus royal vampire doesn't need blood to survive."
I told him with a confident face because I have a habit of reading a lot in the royal library, I am a book worm
"little Selena loves to read, nice."
Lazarus said impressed, which made me smile and feel proud of myself that someone thinks that I am worthy after my family, of course.
"yah, I have a habit of reading."
I told Lazarus with a smile and with proud fae as finally, someone won't judge me for reading books, and I have a person to talk to as well about books. I am happy about it.
Ava sneaked next to us and placed the food on the table while Lazarus distracted me.
"people food."
