Chereads / Under His Wings / Chapter 24 - Why Am I Here?

Chapter 24 - Why Am I Here?

Kancial feels the warmth sitting next to Raven spread in his body like a burning furnace that refuse to let it's flame get subdued by water.

The way Raven flutter her eyebrow when she blinks makes his body rise in an unpredictable way. He should probably get out of here before somethings gets rough!

After all, she was a demon and the daughter of head of them at that. She may have those pleasure-like feelings towards him or any other male Angel around so...

Anything can happen.

Raven, however is enjoying her alone time with him. She has the intention to learn new words and know new birds and animals that may be around through Kancial.

She learnt what a parrot was some moments ago, why will other animals or birds be different or difficult to learn about?

"Are they more birds like a parrot? That talks?"

"All birds talks. But in their own language, they hear us but we don't hear them"

Raven's eyes widen. Meaning, vultures and crows hears them too?

Just as she open her mouth to ask, another question came out of her mouth.

"Why am I here? Do you need me for something or did the Creator arrange my place here?"

Kancial says nothing but let's out a deep breath.

"You have been chosen as my bride. To rule with me above all Angels and we are both directly under the Creator"

Raven felt a numbing sensation in her stomach and it feels like her world went blank the moment Kancial said she's been chosen as his bride.

Is he joking? Or does he actually mean it?

"You're joking, right?" Raven says with a smile and when Kancial turns to her, she bursted into laughter, and a hard one at that.

Kancial stares at her with an eyebrow raised. She really is that dumb to think it's a joke? How oblivious of her!

Well, he's not going to blame her because it's obvious she doesn't know what being a bride of a Prince means.

Cause if she does her reaction will be a bit more... Prideful and she would be excited.

Upon hearing no words coming out of the mouth of Kancial, Raven stops laughing when she opened her eyes to see Kancial staring at her with a very stern expression.

Oh... He's not joking at all.

*Coughs* * Coughs* she clears her throat and sit well, adjusting a bit just so the angry looking Prince won't bite her ear off if she tries any nonsense that may annoy him.

"You are not joking. I apologize for that" she says, not able to bring her eyes up and stare into the eyes of Kancial for fear that he might not like what he see.

But Kancial finds her act quite amusing, he chuckles and stare at the bowed face of Raven. He slowly tucks her hair behind her ear, just so he can see her pink face.

Kancial smiles at this, but when she moved her neck to turn to him, he quickly wipes the smile of his face and replaces it with a frown.

Raven's face turns pink the moment he called her his bride, but just so he won't notice she laughed heartily.

But now he knows that she blushed whenever she gets a post. And in this case...

Her post is a bride post.

"Do you know the history about Xuvicer?"

This questions makes a little spark of hatred lit in her. Raven. She can't bear to hear that name being called in heaven again.

Kancial watches her expression drastically change the moment he mentioned Xuvicer.

"I don't want to know" she whispers facing the other side, so that Kancial won't see her angry and humiliated face.

"What he did to me. All he did to me when I was in Hell is ringing in my head every single hour I think of my parents. My Mother never wanted to be sent down from here, but it resulted to just one sin that my Father committed and tempted her to join him..."

Raven can't continue. Her red hair makes the white tears falling from her eyes to get wiped away.

Kancial stares at her all throughout the period she spoke and it seems like she hid her face with her red hair.

Seeing this, Kancial slipped his hand under her hair and raised a great amount of her hair, just so he can see her teary eyes, pink lips, her beautiful shaped chubby face.

"Pl-Please don't cry" he whispers and she lays her head on his chest with her face sobber and her eyes teary.

Now he understands why she's trying her possible best to be happy at all times. Because she has been sad her whole life in Hell, so Heaven should be better.

Kancial smiles at the thought of having her as his bride.

But before that, he has to deal with the war between the Angels and the Demons first.

But in the meantime...

"Have some rest. I will be checking on you time by time"

Raven doesn't answer him, nor does she move.

But all he heard was the thin voice if the Creator. And like the Creator is very close to his right ear, he hears him whisper saying:

"I have casted a deep sleep upon her. She will only wake up when you want to see her. Now hurry up and deal with Xuvicer and his Demons"

Kancial smiles. The Creator is very brilliant and cunning in his own way.

Kancial lays Raven on the bed properly and concluded by covering her up with the thick blanket-lime cloth on the bed. He scans his work properly and diverts his gaze to the face of Raven.

'I don't think she knows how cute she is when she's asleep'

The beautiful pink lips of Raven move a little before she got balanced on the bed and, little by little, the way she breathed engulf the air and Kancial can't help but watch and admire her way of breathing and sleeping.

He stares for a while and when the satisfaction of what he's seeing got to the peak, he walked out of the room and closed the door.

The three maids watched from a distance as he paused and just stared at the door knob.

He can't wait for all the wars to be over.

Then the real deal with Raven will begin.
