A heavy silence hung in the air, the seconds feeling like an eternity. David stared at Aria, knowing that her feelings towards humans left no room for forgiveness.
He walk slowly to her as he hold the life core tightly in his hand…"aria"… he take a deep breath before he continues "I'm sorry... I know you hate humans, but i had to do that! The king had promised me to-"
David word had been cut of as aria attacks him with sword but david had stopped the attack with his sword "aria please! Let me just-" "I DONT WANT TO HEAR ANYTHING FROM SOMEONE LIKE YOU!!"
Aria's eyes glowed with a dark red hue, reflecting the intensity of her emotions as she jumped back and Without a moment's hesitation, she dashed towards him, her sword tightly clutched in hand.
David desperately tried to defend himself without causing any harm to Aria. "Aria, just listen to me! Let me finish what I have to say!"
Aria's sword struck David's waist, causing him to grimace in pain. With a cold tone, she stated, "Finish what? I don't want to hear any pathetic excuses!" She continued her relentless assault, her anger fueling every attack.
David clutched his wounded waist, wincing in agony as he saw the blood on his hands. Frustration washed over him, and he couldn't help but swear under his breath.
"Dammit..."
He looked at Aria, desperate to explain himself and have her listen to his reasons, but her stubbornness seemed impenetrable.
The minutes ticked by as the fierce battle continued. Aria was starting to tire, visible in her heavy breaths. She couldn't help but notice the state David was in, with blood flowing from multiple wounds on his shoulder, waist, and cheek, he seemed on the verge of collapse.
Aria couldn't deny that David hadn't even attempted to harm her not even a small scratch He was only trying to defending against her attacks
David Panting heavily as he dropped to his knees, his breaths labored as he stared at Aria, who approached him slowly. In a desperate plea, he protested, "A..Aria, please believe me! I did all this to save my sister!"
"You're willing to sacrifice Eric for your own sister? How selfish can you be, huh?" Aria said angrily, pushing David to the ground.
David choked, his strength drained. "Yeah... I know I'm selfish... I hate that part of myself... I was only thinking about my sister... I wanted to help her... I admit it... I was using you..."
He panted as he continued "but after I met you I felt so bad! Especially after I became your friend!... all those moments we shared... they meant so much to me..."
aria's hand was shaking as David Spoked She looked at David, her heart fluttering with a mix of pain and affection. Whenever he joked around or gave her those lighthearted hugs, her pulse would quicken, and deep feelings stirred within her.
Aria clutched the sword, poised above David's heart, as she settled next to him. He appeared unfazed, his smile unwavering.
Then, David reached out, drawing her closer. In a soft whisper, he confessed, "I love you, Aria... I adore you..." With that, he tugged her towards him, sealing his words with a tender kiss.
A single tear trailed down their faces, a bittersweet mixture of love and sorrow. As they kissed, the sword pierced David's heart, breaking the moment with a sharp cut. she cut the kiss seeing David beautiful smile for the last time before he slowly closed his eyes
Aria's voice trembled as she confessed, "I love you too, David," her words filled with heartache she carefully collected Eric's life core from David's grasp, her steps heavy and pained.
Her once sparkling eyes were now dull, and her body trembled with sadness as she made her way back to Eric's room.
