Chapter 44 - Earth to heaven

As for certain fellow, who has sweared with his surname being Raj, that no matter what he won't come back to her.

That there's nothing left between them. That, no matter what, he won't lower himself in front of her again. He was already sighing for the nth time, after watching her getting immersed in her practise once again.

Not just practise made him sigh. But also the thing, that she wasn't able to fight properly, which means she still hasn't gained her martial stregth back. If this continues, then for next century she will be fully busy with her body and weapons.

Aiye. A century without her. She truly is heartless. She literally doesn't care about him. Or give a damn. It's been long very long time. Yet this heartless fellow, not even once pay him a visit.

So,at the end of the day, it's him, who has to lower his head, his status, his reputation, his power and come here.

" Aelin." He finally couldn't bear it anymore and shout out.

Fine. He is the grandmaster in these skills. All that she has to do is ask, once. But naah!!! Why does she has to be this much stubborn?

Aelin stare at this uninvited, unwelcomed party, who surely invited himself and was now currently standing next to her.

" Whatever it is. I am busy." She spat back. In order to shoo this guy away. Fine. It was the first time, Aelin has seen such a spineless, shameless fellow in her life.

Like, she knws he comes everyday. Despite getting ignored completely by her. Can't he be little respectful to himself?

" Actually, Aelin. I am here to offer you, 'Once in a millenia offer'." And the Great Dietiness started advertising himself in order to sell himself to her.

" Once in a millenia offer. Huh! What is it?" She asked after contemplation.

" Just one meal with you. And I will teach you for entire day, without break." He proposed.

She narrowed her eyes. When did this Great Dietiness becomes so pathetic, that he can't even afford one meal per day. Huh!!!

As in his defense: This phoenix is on the verge of collpasing down. As she has neither touch food nor water. Fine, they are dieties and they can live without food and water for years.

But nowadays, with the pressence of nerve-wrecking, mouth drooling food, who would like to follow the hunger practise. So, nowadays Heaveners can only stand months of hunger practise.

And currently she was on her last days of those strike months.

So, how could he bear to see her getting collpased. And thus The Great Dietiship comes up with this proposal.

" I don't have any money, to pay. You can leave. The door is that way." Fine, Aelin can feel afraid from the entire World except him. She really wants to see, where exactly this fellow's limit lies.

" Oh! No problem. My treats. As long as you agree. You can think about it, after all my skills are unbeatable and undefeatble in this World. All for FREE!FREE!! FREE!!! FREE!!! Just two minutes to think. Take your time." He added the sound of urgency, so that she could accept him.

As for her, she just close her eyes. She only trust this bird of her, no one else. But this bird trust him, for god knows why. So, it told her to agree with him. At the end, she agreed.

And the moment she said "Fine.Deal." He actually hold her wrist and take her to his Barrage Area, flying as if there's no tomorrow, to treat her with a sumptuous meal.

Aelin, who couldn't even phathom, what exactly happened, find herself in familiar yet unknown place. It was him, who helped her. For the first time, for the second time, even now, it was him, who is worried about her hunger and thirst.

Is it really because of Guilt? Is it really because of that fact, that his mother finished Aelin's species? Or is there more to it?

Fine, she might do from anything to everything. But the last thing,she wants is to discuss this thing with him. After all, that lady is his mother. The part of his family.

But Aelin, she is just a charity case. A pity case. Why would he choose Aelin over his mother? Obviously, the moment she told, she wants to use the skill, he will teach to kill his mother,he will kill her.

No, she can't die. Not when the person, who committed a sin, is alive and happy. So,she will keep it a secret. A secret, which will never ever get revealed by her. Only when she will kill Prithvi's step mother .

Only then, she will confess her true motive, her true face, her true aim, her true self to him. And she knows,he will kill her at the end, in return.

[Fine. Aelin misuderstood. But that's how, Phoenix had felt till now, too. After all, he had treated Aelin exceptionally well.

The moment she got the power. The moment she decided to burn the entire Universe. It was this fellow, who tried to bound her down, firstly by conscience, then with power and now with his over the top love.

Aelin Westfall has never ever felt the sense of belonging with him, or in this Universe. She hated this World for snatching her people from her.

She had always felt herself as a charity case, a pity case for this fellow. She has always thought, this fellow just sympathize her. That's all.

After all, if he really has loved her. Then, wouldn't he have helped her in avenging dead species? Then, wouldn't he punish his step-mother himself? The won't he help her out of the situation she was in?

But, nope. He never did that. He always sit there, in his throne and watched her acting like his source of entertainment. His clown.]

"Here." Prithvi brought the bite of food near to her mouth, snapping Aelin from her deep thought.
