Chapter 4
A curse of witches always wins, despite their spells and portions. A curse; a deadly curse can be their great weapon. I can still remember that time when I was in the tower with the four witch godmothers. They have tried to teach me how to create an antidote and poison, which now I regret why I did not follow them. I wish I could just make an antidote for this wolf. In order that, he will not ask for help.
"Where is your pack? Your mate? Why me? I can't help you. Besides, I'm waiting for someone. "
He looked at me like he didn't expect those things from me. A few moments later, he took something from behind him. Asides from his arrow and bow, it was a golden map. Not just a map, but a glistening necklace that gives light in the midst of darkness.
Only now have I seen so much clarity on the map and necklace. I always adore my godmothers for taking me away from those things, only magic is what they taught me.
"A necklace, and a map? Who give you that things? " He jolted, and didn't answer me. He shifted his gaze at the map. He looked at me first before I was violently pushed onto the map, and my eyes almost popped out in shock at what I saw.
It was a map of the Daciantha and Hierantha. The old map, before it was divided into four empires. He pointed us now to where we were. We are in Ithaca now. Somewhere forbidden forest, away from the wolves and witches. Faires, mermaids are just around the corner. If there's a river somewhere at the end of the forest, there's a trail of faires. I was about to speak, when suddenly a calming breeze of the wind made me stop to mumble my words.
"Safixa has the first ingredient to form that antidote. A flower that only blooms at dawn," he said, and a smile plastered on his face.
I sparingly arranged my waist -length hair. I almost cursed myself, when I remember I don't have something ponytail to tie my hair. Ryuu looked at me for a moment before going to the white rose garden and from there, a white smoke appeared in front of me.
I gasped and covered my mouth. My eyes widened and I averted my gaze. I feel terrible because of what I saw. Maybe I'd better just wait for him to finish what he's doing.
"Tell me if you're done with that. I will just turn around!" I turned around and just play my ring in my middle finger.
"No need, I just made it for you. I hope you like it," he said, that made my body turned around, and my eyes met his raging eyes. My sweats glistened by the suns, the whistling wind.
Don't look at me like that.
After he said those words, from his behind. He handed and a white ponytail. It was surrounded by some emeralds, embers of the snow. I was stunned because that's really too much for my hair. I was about to take it from him when he violently grabbed me by the shoulder and turned me around.
"Hey, give me the ponytail! What are you doing? You are really a bad dog, you know ?!" I yelled at him. The pain when he grabbed my shoulder. "I just want to braid your hair. Is there anything wrong with that, Fala?" He called me using my name.
I just wanted to get out of here. I just want to go back to my roses. Why have I even seen it? I can't stand with him. He's so annoying and bossy. But still, I can't help to help him.
"Just finish it. And we need to go into the enchanted forest, the first forest to Safixa." I can't help, but rolled my eyes towards him. He just chuckled from behind. And started fixing my hair. Minutes have passed, and she has also finished b-braiding my hair. He gave me a mirror.
I almost threw away the mirror as soon as I saw my reflection in the mirror. The beauty and the way she braided me. "Where did the ponytail you used come from?" I asked him when, accidentally, I noticed something that highlights my hair.
"It was made from the Ozerkn smoke; the smoke in where, your personal things can be made," he simply said, and took his arrow and bow. He motioned for me to obey. I just looked at him as he climbed the marble staircase.
I was unable to look at other objects and furniture because he was walking so fast. Is that he's Alpha speed? According to prophecy, Alphas have the speed and power. No wonder why he's so aggressive.
"Hey! Wait for me, you, bad dog!" I shouted at him and chased him. I caught up with him on a balcony, standing. In where his hands placed in the baluster of the rusty balcony. His gaze turned to the ocean. A vast and merciless sounds of wind that it was so enchanting to feel. I would love to ask him where his pack is, about his family.
But for a moment, it crossed my mind that he would just use me as an ingredient, so he could find that antidote. If only I could find and be with the four witches again. But, in the other hand. They also couldn't help me because they only focused their attention and attention on Calixta Zherine. The destined daughter of a witch and a fairy, how iconic it was. I just turned my gaze and bravely met Ryuu's questioning eyes.
He glanced at me and pursued his lips. "This look… Paradise?" I stared at him intently. He arched his eyebrows, waiting for my reply. He gripped the baluster firmly as soon as I opened my mouth.
"My home is still my paradise, take me to the recipes and take me home. That's the order from the Goddess of Roses."
