The Beauty And The Wolf - Chapter 160
When Sabrina opened the door, Dimitri was already waiting outside the room.
“Let’s go!” Sabrina said.
Dimitri nodded his head, then waved his hand, bringing Sabrina back to the Portwell Mansion.
A few minutes later.
Sabrina landed inside Cornelia’s room and was greeted with an empty bed. She heard the water running inside the bathroom.
She went to the chair and sat down, waiting for Cornelia to get out of the bathroom.
A few minutes later.
“Aunt…” Sabrina said softly, announcing her presence in the room.
Cornelia stepped outside the bathroom. “My child, it’s you!” She nearly had a heart attack after seeing someone sitting on the chair, but she was able to recover from her shock right away. She rushed to her side. “Can you imagine my worry after I visited you in the inn but found your room empty! Where have you been?” she asked.
“I’m sorry, Aunt! Things happened so fast. Don’t worry about me, I’m already in a safe place. I already found Rhett and we are living together now under one roof,” she explained. “Please inform Lady Helen to stop publishing Rhett’s photo, no need for it anymore,” she said.
“Okay, I’ll inform her in a letter,” Cornelia said. “Are you sure you’re living well with your boyfriend?” she asked.
Sabrina nodded her head. “I’m happy now after I found him again, Aunt!” she replied.
Cornelia saw the happiness flashing in Sabrina’s eyes, she finally believed her. “How did you get inside my room? I didn’t hear the door opening and closing…” she asked, confused.
“Um…er…” Sabrina scratches her head. How to explain to her aunt that she was able to come here because of the guardian of the medallion.
Cornelia saw that Sabrina has difficulty answering her question. “Ah, I get it. It’s the power of the medallion that brought you here? Am I right?”
“Yes!” Sabrina nodded her head.
“Okay, no need to explain. I understand,” Cornelia said.
Sabrina stood up and hugged Cornelia. “I can’t stay longer, Aunt. Rhett might wake up and start to wonder where am I. Thank you so much for everything, for you kindness and generosity towards me. I truly appreciate it,” she said, misty-eyed.
“Don’t mention it. Visit me more if you have a free time. And if one day you and Rhett will have a child, bring the child to me, I want to see the baby…” Cornelia said.
Sabrina smiled. “Sure! I’ll take my leave now, Aunt. Please take care of yourself,” she said.
“I will, you too! Go now…” Cornelia spoke.
“Bye, Aunt!” Sabrina said.
A few minutes later.
Cornelia watched in amazement when Sabrina suddenly disappeared from her eyes. She finally witnesses firsthand the power of the medallion that gives her a chill on her spine.
But she also felt relieved that no matter where Sabrina will go the medallion will protect her from harm.
She finally turned off the light in her bedroom and went to bed to sleep for the night.
…
Meanwhile…
Sabrina was back in the hut and went to bed beside Rhett. She stared at his face lovingly. “I’m going to miss you in the next fifty years… I hope you will be able to live a good life, find another woman to love, and raised a family with her. I wish you happiness from the bottom of my heart,” she said, fresh tears falling from her eyes.
She bit her lip, not wanting to cry tonight.
She should only remember happy moments with her beloved Rhett, not sad moments. She wants to create memorable memories with him so that she has something to remember during her long training inside the sacred ground.
She planted a kiss on Rhett’s lips. “I love you so much and it hurts to get separated from you again. I don’t want to part with you again. Too bad, there’s nothing I can do about it. My destiny is already written in stone. This is how our love story ends,” she lamented.
Half an hour later.
Rhett opened his eyes, he finally awakened. He looked at Sabrina smiling beside him. “Oh, I had fallen asleep… I’m sorry my love,” he apologized.
Sabrina smiled brightly. “No need to apologize, you can continue your sleep if you want,” she said sweetly.
Rhett shook his head. “Nah, I would rather stare at your beautiful face all night long than go to sleep,” he responded and kissed her lips lovingly.
Sabrina giggled and hugged him tightly. “You are so good when it comes to flattery,” she teased him.
“I’m not flattering you, I’m telling the truth!” Rhett insisted, then he tickled her sides.
Sabrina laughed hysterically. “Stop… stoppppppp!” she shouted, laughing hard. She retaliated by tickling his side as well.
Rhett joined in Sabrina’s laughter.
The room was filled with the couple’s merry laughter.
After their laughter died, they rested for a while, then they give in to the heat of the moment and began fondling each other’s erogenous body parts which resulted in a steamy romping that lasted for two hours.
After the fire of passion and lust evaporated, they looked at each other’s faces, laughing happily.
Tired but sated, the couple embraced each other lovingly as they savor the aftermath of their mind blowing lovemaking.
Enveloped in each other arms, the couple finally drifted into a deep slumber at 11:00 in the evening.
….
Across the miles, deep in the forest.
Leera can’t sleep. She was imagining Rhett and Sabrina lying naked together in the bed, making love all night long. “Noooooooooooo! Rhett is mine! Give him back to me!” she shouted over and over again in agony.
She rose from the bed and walked slowly towards the direction of the door wanting to leave the house to find Rhett! She needs to get him back! She will die if he can’t return to her side.
She will kill Sabrina and take Rhett away from her!
She needs to find them!
The door suddenly opened…
The healer stood in the doorway. “I come here to see why you are shouting in the middle of the night? What’s wrong, Leera? Are your stomach hurting again?” she inquired.
“No, I want Rhett back! I need to go! I need to find him!” Leera lamented.
The healer shook her head vigorously. She pitied Leera at the same time annoyed that the stupid woman continue to act stubbornly after she become blind.
Leera continues to move forward.
“Let’s go back to the bed. Go back to sleep!” the healer said. She assisted the pregnant woman back to her bed.
“No! I need to go out of the house and find them! I want Rhett back!” Leera insisted.
The healer released a deep sigh. “Don’t be stubborn! If you continue to act like this you will encounter accident in the forest. You can’t leave the house in the middle of the night because you already lose your vision! Don’t be stupid!” she scolded her.
“Leave me alone! Don’t stop me! I need to find Rhett! My baby and I need him!” Leera still insisted on going to the door.
“I said, you can’t leave because it’s dangerous for you and your baby!” the healer blocked the door and removed the pouch from the pocket of her skirt. She sprinkled the powder on Leera’s face, putting her in a deep sleep. “Stupid woman!” she murmured angrily.
Before Leera’s body crumbled on the floor, the healer was already behind her, catching her, then she brought Leera safely back to bed.
She covered the poor woman’s body with the blanket.
She stared at Leera for a long time while shaking her head in sadness.
Leera cheated and gambled her way into the wolf’s heart, all in the name of love, but in the end not only did she lose the man she love, but she also loses her vision and her power… all in the name of love.
Not worth it!
She has to do something before Leera will lose the baby!
“I’m sorry, child. I have no choice but to do it! For your safety and for the baby, you need to be locked up for your own good,” she said gloomily.
She walked towards the window and chanted a spell, summoning someone to come to the hut.
A few minutes later.
Dolores, Leera’s devoted follower materialized inside the room.
“Who summoned me?” Dolores asked.
“I am. Looked at the Priestess lying in the bed… look at her pathetic condition!” the healer said.
“Oh, my!” Horrified, Dolores rushed to the bed and stared at the two empty sockets of Leera’s eyes. She looked at the healer. “Who did this to her!?” she asked angrily.
“It’s Sabrina and her powerful ally, they come to this place and took the wolf away. Then they removed Leera’s eyes and returned her to this hut already a blind woman. I’m sorry, there’s nothing I can do for her anymore…” the healer explained.
Dolores gritted her teeth in anger.
The healer sighed. “Forget retaliating! Don’t plan on avenging Leera’s condition. You might only bring more harm to her and yourself. The reason why I summoned you here – because the Priestess needs to be locked away for her protection and for the baby as well…” she paused for a few seconds and continue… “Leera wanted to leave the hut to find Rhett. I’m afraid that she might encounter accident in the forest and she will not only lose her life, she will also lose the baby in her tummy…”
“I want to avenge her!” Dolores declared, raw anger was flashing in her eyes.
The healer was shaking her head. “Foolishness! You’re as stubborn as her! Listen to me… you and Leera are not in a position to take revenge! Your power is weak compared to Sabrina’s guardian!”
“I don’t care!” Dolores shouted.
The healer shrugged, getting annoyed that Leera’s most trusted follower is also stubborn just like her. “Okay, fine, go ahead! Seek revenge for Leera if you want, but I must ask you to lock Leera first in a safe room so that she can give birth to her child safely and properly. Then you can go ahead with your revenge. For now, I want you to focus on taking good care of the pregnant woman and keeping her company every day so that she won’t go crazy due to loneliness and sadness. Then after she gives birth to a healthy baby, you are finally free to continue seeking revenge…”
Dolores’ nostrils were flaring in anger. She digested the healer’s statement slowly.
Thick silence enveloped the room.
A few minutes later, after the anger subsided, Dolores finally understood that Leera needed her time, attention, and companionship the most during the lowest time of her life. Therefore, she has no time for revenge.
She looked at the healer. “You are right, baby safety first before revenge!” she finally relented.
The healer smiled in relief. “That’s good! Don’t worry, I will visit the Hillsraine Grove mansion twice a week to bring healthy medicine for Leera’s baby. You can bring her back to the mansion,” she said.
“Thank you for your help and for taking good care of the Priestess,” Dolores said.
“Don’t mention it,” the healer responded with a smile.
Feeling wretched inside, Dolores looked miserably at the sleeping woman on the bed. “I’ll bring you home, Priestess! I’ll take care of you…” she murmured.
A few minutes later, Dolores and Leera vanished from the room.
The healer closed the window and went back to her room to continue her interrupted sleep.
