Dream Love : Dream Land - Chapter 139
“You’re really here.”
Anna said to her husband there who was now standing in front of the transparent tomb belonging to his first wife, Lucia in the secret basement. She always know that he will be here if she can’t find her anywhere.
Liam looked at Anna, his second wife there, who was starting to enter the same room.
“What are you doing in here Anna? Do you deliberately want to hurt your own heart?” He actually concern about her feeling. He know he already hurting her so much.
Anna smirks there meaningfully.
“Don’t think so highly of yourself Liam. I’m still young. I can remarry whenever I want after you make the wish. As you be gone after that.”
His eyes are now flash with anger and he starts to grip Anna shoulder there. So harsh that make Anna gasped in hurt.
“What do you mean by that? Don’t you want to do the last wish with me? Are you suddenly changing your mind?” He speaks so fast that it makes him lose his breath now.
Anna just looked sharply at the man now. Give him her own anger vibe there. Let him know that she also have right to get mad.
“So that’s right, you actually make me as your wife just for making the last wish.”
“You already know that so why are you still asking me!”
“I just thought about your offer. You said you will give me the chance to make the second wish. But when I’m thinking back, what should I wish for because in the end I will still die with you. I didn’t have any reason at all. I have nothing to left behind. None. ”
Liam realizes he’s been using Anna all this time. But this time she speaks out about that. He doesn’t know what he should say to her now. He just so desperately want to revive his son.
“You can’t do this to me Anna. Not after all these years. Not after we start to find out the existence of where this magical stone is. Didn’t you say that you loved me all this time? And you will do anything for me? ” Liam said there as he softened his touch to her. No more violence.
“I do love you Liam. But I suddenly realize that you are not respecting me as your wife even if you didn’t love me. I understand that I am just a replacement even though we already married for so long and nothing could change that. But, everytime I thought we made love, you are always saying her name. Don’t you know how much my heart hurt then? Am I a whore for you? ”
“You’re not! ”
“So why are you doing this to me?!”
For the first and the last time, Anna wanted to speak out her mind so that she would not regret it later. So that she will not feel all wrong with her decision to turn away from the man.
“In that case, because you don’t want Freya in the same platform when you make the wish, you can just find anyone to do that with you. It’s not necessarily me.”
“I didn’t trust anyone I trust you Anna. I thought I made that clear to you already.” Liam finally speaks in a lower voice. A voice that always grips Anna’s feelings every time it is released.
Anna began to cry there as her eyes now looked towards the corpse that was there, facing them both. Why I can’t beat you Lucia?
“I promise I will do anything to make out for you, but please don’t back off from me now. Please…”
Anna looked back at her husband. If people said that King Liam never begging in his entire life, that is totally wrong as Anna always see this.
“Anything?” She asked.
Liam nodded now.
“Then kiss me.” Anna ordered.
Liam was a little shocked and his eyes began to look towards the corpse of his first wife.
“Kiss me now. Like you mean it. Or I change my mind.”
“I… I Ca…” Never did anyone make Liam stutter like this except her and Anna know that very well. But the reason behind that make her so mad.
Seeing the hesitant in Liam there, Anna grabs his collar and tries to kiss him on the lips as she started to get frustrated. But unconsciously Liam pushed Anna from getting close to him until she was pushed backwards.
“See… Don’t promise something that you can’t keep Liam. Or you’re really going to make me sick of you.” Anna actually already knows this will happen as he will never do that here. In front of his first wife, though she is already dead frozen like that. What a faithful husband, he is! Anna said that verse in her mind, mockingly for sure.
“Fine, if you can’t do that I have one more request.” Anna said while wiping away the tears on her face.
“What is it?” This time Liam was more careful.
“I want to have a vacation in the Elysium Land with the six princes and Jieun and you can’t say no to that.”
Liam was shocked now by the request. It’s been years since they severed state ties and he forbade all the royal family to go there, but now Anna is asking for that? Doesn’t that make a scratch on his ego?
“We’re still busy with the magical stone searching also with that Vollmond troupe and you wanted to have fun there?” Liam said in disbelief voice but still in lower note.
“Don’t think so low of me Liam. I heard you wanted to send them to Coastal Land after attending a Prince James wedding, which was delayed before. I know you wanted them in the Coastal Land because there were rumors that there was the twin stone in there. As the land is close to the Elysium Land, why don’t I just venture together. ”
“Are you saying that you as my queen wanted to leave me here by myself managing the country while you go out there exposing yourself to danger?” Liam sounded a little angry this time around.
“Fine, I will be waiting for them in the Elysium Land while they do the job. I have Adele by my side anyway. So, how about that?”
“Anna…”
“I am not going there to play Liam. I heard from Adele that one of the twin stones is actually in their hands. Didn’t you feel curious about that?”
“How can they have it?” Hearing about that Liam in quickly changing his tone in fast.
Anna shrugs.
“But we can’t have it in force. The twin stone will react only when the power stone is around. That’s why I want to go with all of the six princes and Jieun to avoid their suspicion. After confirming, we will think about what we should do.”
Liam thought for a moment there.
“Fine. But later. After James wedding we will talk about this again.”
With that Anna wants to move away from there, but her hand is caught by the King.
“You are still by my side right? Tell me.” Liam demand her oath.
“I can make a blood agreement with you if you teach me how to do that.” Anna said there asking Liam is practicing black magic for a while now.
Seeing Anna face right now, Liam knows she will not betray him.
“No need for that.”
And he let go of her. Like he always does.
