Dragon Loves Me - Chapter 130
Gavon turned around and rode his horse away from the place. Ethan also instructed the officials to take care of the matter here and went with Gavon.
‘No, No, this can’t be happening. Ivy, Please be safe.’ Gavon prayed.
At the same time, Ivy is going towards the mansion in the carriage. She left the Kreed Mansion to get prepared for the banquet in the evening and also to get some peaceful rest.
She is quite mad with Gavon, he didn’t even come to talk with her which left her in a sour mood. But she remembered the talk with Lysa and found her words of advice. She advised Lysa to speak with Elric and love him but did she follow that? She was thinking only about herself and tried to think in his shoes that too with her mindset. She is not thinking like Gavon.
Previously, she is quite similar to Gavon but after coming to this world she changed a lot and expressed her feelings more openly. But whereas Gavon, didn’t even have a kinship with a girl and never spoke with the opposite gender except for a few situations. How did he know about her feelings? Did she ever express her feelings to him? Did she ever try to communicate with him?
The answer is no. She wanted him to do things that she felt good about but she rarely expressed what she wanted. Then on what basis did she gets angry with Gavon? Ivy’s self-reproach made her realise her wrong deeds and thought of having a nice chat with Gavon once she reached home and wanted to apologise to him for her temper.
Lyo tried to talk with her but she ended the conversation with one-word answers as she is busy with her own thoughts, as a silent person Lyo didn’t know how to converse more with Ivy.
Suddenly the white smoke started coming inside the carriage, Ivy and Lyo was surprised and opened the curtains to see the situation. Far away from the carriage, something is burning but before they notice the smoke engulfed the whole carriage.
Lyo became alerted and informed Ivy “Sis, close the doors.”
Ivy frowned, she felt something familiar smell in the air and the realisation hit her hard. She immediately covered her nose.
“Lyo, cover your nose,” Ivy shouted, but the carriage was already filled with smoke.
Lyo was startled and tried to ask her but he felt dizzy, ‘F*ck, why am I feeling weak? No, no this can’t be happening. My sword.’
He tried to take a sword from the ore but his body became numb. He looked at Ivy and asked weakly “Sis, sword.”
Ivy sensed Lyo’s uneasiness she wrapped the kerchief around her nose and tried to help Lyo but the carriage suddenly came to a halt. It seems the coachman also fell unconscious.
“Lyo, wake up.” Ivy patted his cheeks and tied a cloth around his nose, Lyo’s eyes turned red and his vision suddenly became blurry.
“S-S-Sword…” Lyo wants to injure himself from waking up but he is not able to lift his hands. He suddenly became weak and numb all over his body.
“S-s-sis, r-run” Lyo managed to say those before darkness engulfed him.
“Lyo, Lyo, No No” Ivy panicked. She didn’t think something like this would happen suddenly and her mind stopped working and her vision also got blurry.
She already inhaled the smoke but she never thought that this smoke is this powerful. It is just like raw. Even a little amount of smoke makes you lose your consciousness.
She calmed down immediately and tried to wake Lyo before losing her consciousness, she reached for his pulse and sensed it was very low.
“Damn it, if I save him forcefully it will hurt his life. What should I do?’ amidst her thoughts she heard the footsteps coming towards her carriage. She braced herself and took the sword from Lyo ore.
Her hands are trembling and her eyes are getting blurry, she wants to injure herself before the sword falls from her hands and she staggers back and falls onto his seat.
‘Gavon. Sorry’ Ivy murmured and a tear rolled from her eyes before losing her consciousness. The door opened in the next second and took Ivy and Lyo with them.
Gavon felt uneasy in his heart, his heart started beating widely and an unknown rush hit him. He felt like being tortured, his body is drenched with perspiration but the cool air is drying it immediately. His body temperature started increasing and again he felt itchy all over his body. It feels like something is scratching his heart to come out.
He threw all those emotions back in his mind and concentrated on reaching Ivy, Ethan caught up to him and shouted “Gavon, you go towards home. I will go to a banquet. By this time Ivy might be going back for rest.”
Gavon thought for a while and nodded his head, he guided his horse towards the Mansion, while Ethan went to the Bratton Mansion.
After a few minutes, Gavon found the carriage of Ivy stopped in the middle of the road and his heart skipped a bit and his face turned gloomy. When he reached near to it he found the guards lying on the ground, he stopped his horse and he stumbled down while getting down from the horse.
He stood again and ran towards the carriage, he found all the soldiers were unconscious and he didn’t even place secret guards as Lyo was accompanying her. Gavon hand shook when he opened the carriage door while praying that Ivy must be present inside.
He opened the door and found it was empty. Only a sword was present on the floor, his heart stopped beating for a second and he felt his whole body collapsing around him. His legs gave away and stumbled back before landing on the ground.
‘I-I-Ivy” Gavon murmured and looked around, he crawled towards the nearby soldier and tried to wake him up.
“Hey, wake up. Please wake up. Where is Ivy? Hey,” Gavon patted the soldier’s cheeks to get some information but to his disarray, the soldier didn’t wake up. He placed him down and went towards another soldier and tried to wake him up but the latter also didn’t budge.
Unknowingly he went towards all the soldiers like a mad man and tried to wake them all but no one responded. All of them are like breathing statues, his tears are rolling like a broken dam.
Gavon kneeled on the ground and looked at the sky before crying aloud “IVY….”
By the time Ethan returned after visiting the mansion and confirming that Ivy left the place he directly went towards the home. He saw Gavon on the road and tried to wake the soldiers.
Ethan got down from the horse and went towards him hurriedly, he heard Gavon pleading and stunned. He grabbed Gavon by his shoulder and he gasped seeing the Gavon situation.
“Gavon, what’s wrong? Why are you c-crying?” Ethan asked with disbelief. He forgot everything and his mind stopped at Gavon’s tear-stained face.
Gavon stood up hurriedly and grabbed Ethan’s shoulder “Ethan, Ethan Ivy, Ivy. She is not in the carriage. Lyo is also missing, No one is waking up. Please help me wake them up.”
Ethan doesn’t know how to respond to seeing the Gavon, he is like a small kid who is separated by his family. Ethan’s eyes turned red but he braced himself and hugged him tightly.
Gavon stopped speaking and cried again “Shh…Gavon, Ivy and Lyo will be alright. We will find them. Don’t worry. Okay”
Ethan slowly started patting his back and whispered ” Gavon, you have to be strong, at least for Ivy. She needed you the most. Don’t panic. She will be alright and we are going to find him.”
He never saw Gavon in this situation and it is making him sad.
Gavon calmed down and with the thought, Ivy needed him most to bring his strength back. He got separated from the embrace and said with determination “Yes, Ivy needs me. Ethan informs our people to come and rescue the soldiers.”
“Okay, Who do you think did this? Any clues?” Ethan inquired.
