Chereads / the game of death / Chapter 14 - The confrontation

Chapter 14 - The confrontation

From as long as I known, all our actions are made out of love

Our actions toward our parents, children, friends and all the people that matter to us

But sometimes the actions make more damage than love and out of our love, we put another person in a pain

We make him think about his existence and why is he where he is

Love is the greatest gift, but we must listen to our closest people see what they like and what they need before doing anything

I went back to Limphea, I was suffocating

I had this sensation that I didn't belong to here anymore, I blamed my parents for what they did, but tried to stay calm till I know the whole truth from them

When I arrived to the castle every single person living in it was welcoming me, they were so happy that their heiress was back safe

And that made me more sad, because I knew that after my discussion with Nephustus and Alfea I will definitely leave this place

I went to the throne room, where they were waiting for me, and as soon as I crossed the door, Alfea rushed and hugged me

She was in tears, relieved that I did it safe

I hugged her back despite my confusion, I still love her, she raised me like her own daughter

As for Nephustus he stood up far away, opened his hands and said:

"You are welcome little fighter" as he looked at me proudly

I then went to hug him

When I was in their arms, I felt safe, even though I was very mad at them for hiding the truth away from me

But that feeling I couldn't take it with no one else despite Elijah

Nephustus invited Elijah to dine with us, he was grateful to him for what he did

As we sat at the dinner table, I still didn't tell a single word since my arrival

My parents realised my sudden silence and asked me several times what was going on and if I was fine

Everytime I told them the same thing, that I was tired from my adventure

I took my time to think and then I will tell them!

The next day, after a long night with no sleeping I decided it was the right to talk and know everything

They were taking their breakfast when I came to them and told them:

" I've made such an encounter in that cursed door, the three impartial witches. Have you heard about them before? They told me an interesting story that I will share with you right away. Long before, there was a couple of human that was in love and from that love a child was born. This two humans were living peacefully until the man stood up in front of a God and challenged him. The dignity of that God was so valuable that he decides to kill him. His wife was pregnant and when she gave birth, she gave the child to the God's wife and killed herself to join her husband. Does this story ring a bell dad?"

Shocked, Nephustus didn't reply, so I turned toward Alfea and saw her eyes filled up with tears

" Won't you reply me? I have the right to know, why did you do this? What did you hid from me my origins? Why did you forbade me from frequenting humans? Did you think that you could hide this from me forever?"

They still didn't say a word so I told with a cold temper:

" It's okay, don't say a thing, I'm out of this, Elijah is waiting for me outside and I am going to live with him. Don't you ever try to reach me. I don't belong gere anymore. Thank you for all you have done, but with all the lies I won't be able to live here anymore."

I was about to leave when Alfea shouter:" Don't go, please. Nephustus you aren't letting her leave us like that are you?" She was devastated and in tears

Her voice was trembling and her legs became so weak that she couldn't stand anymore. She fell on her knees while telling Nephustus to not let me go

He than, took my hand and told me:" I'm sorry darling, let's talk and I will tell you the whole truth"...
