The Black Mist Enchantress - Chapter 117

Alex was still pondering how to answer Emmy, she asked the next question, ” Alex, what if, once I regain my memory and we might have grudges of the past in between us, what will you do? ”

Alex smiled just as he heard her query, ” Well, I will make sure which side is fighting fairly. If I am on the wrong side, I will surely amend my mistakes but if justice is on my side, then I will fight with you. ” Nevertheless, Emmy was expecting a cheesy line from Alex and she was very happy when Alex straightforwardly replied to her.

” Impressive!!! As expected of my husband.”

Emmy rubbed her nose on his chest and Alex who was happy seeing his woman being coquettish with him, suddenly felt as if he was on cloud nine as Emmy had mentioned him as her husband.

” I remember someone saying that she was just a girlfriend for the time being and I should work hard, in order to achieve the fiancee status. I wonder from where did I hear that ?”

Alex loved teasing Emmy at their alone times as he enjoyed her blushing face and this cuteness was only seen in their private times. Usually, Emmy bore a cold expression most of the times when they are out with others.

Late at night, Emmy got up to check whether Alex was asleep or not, she walked near to his bed and slowly whispered, ” I am sorry Alex, the promise of trust in the relationship which I highly spoke of, I need to break it. I have to hide a few things from you for your safety sake. Once I get clarity over the happenings, it would be me who will first disclose all my secrets to you. Please have patience in me.”

She put the comforter over him and kissed on his forehead. When she got up, there was strong determination in her eyes. Emmy came to the window side and opened the windows, letting the cool air into the room.

” Now let’s talk.” Emmy thought inside her mind. Yes, she wanted to communicate with the voice inside her mind. From the last time she had met that woman, this voice was disturbing her a lot when she was with Alex.

” Emmy, I am not your enemy but your benefactor. It is for your sake that it is good to stay away from him.”

Emmy took a deep breath, she wanted to clarify some things but the voice was adamant in just one stand- to leave Alex, which was now making Emmy pissed off.

” Every time you just say only one thing – Stay away from the man who loves me very dearly. Can you tell me why you are adamant about it? I don’t think there is a need for any benefactor meddling in my relationship matters. If you are really concerned about me and want to help me out, then tell me a way to recover my memories.”

For sometime Emmy couldn’t hear the voice inside her head, so she understood that the sole aim of that voice was to keep her away from Alex.

” Hmm, seems that my point is clear to you. Next time before you start buzzing, please answer my question and then start bickering about pain, suffering etc. ”

Finally, Emmy also went to bed to catch her three days of lost sleep. In the night, slowly a black swirl was formed near the window where Emmy had stood before and it disappeared after a few seconds.

The next day, Alex and Emmy went to attend classes. While Mike and Jordan missed their corresponding partners, Alex and Emmy walked hands in hands inside the classroom. The whole class was surprised seeing the stone-faced Alex smiling gently at the arrogant girl Emmy.

Amongst their classmates, a group of girls sat arrogantly looking at Emmy enviously. From the first day of the college, the leader of this group had her eyes on the most handsome face in their class. Although Jordan and Mike were also handsome, the leader thought that only Alex had the command amongst those three and she wanted the best of any men in their world.

Talking about the world, where the cliff-top manor and the great Salian College is there, is called the land Capedreaes. The history of this place was not much known, just the name of this place meant ‘Escape into Dreamland’. Here, there were no clans but families and it was more civilised than the VilmonArk. But with more civilisation, there increased crimes, poverty and demand for food as well as for living. So when considering Emmy, her family is the list of super-rich people.

The Capedreaes had a range of mighty hills on its western side and on the eastern side was the neverending sea. The Eros beach and the clifftop side beach all came under this particular sea.

The leader of the girl’s group was called Talsha Ludacros, as she was the only child of her family, the girl had been pampered from her early childhood and now she had become snobbish as well adamant..

As Emmy’s real identity was not known to most of the students, they had been thinking Emmy as an orphan as she had lost her parents in an accident but what they didn’t know the assets which she had was beyond their imagination.

Therefore, Talsha also despised Emmy and thought that she might have seduced her prince charming and robbed him from her. In reality, actually, Talsha wasn’t interested in any men but from the first time she saw the handsome face of Alex, she could not help herself from falling in love with this young man.

A dangerous glint flashed through Talsha’s eyes, her mind had only one thought, ” He is mine and I will destroy anyone who has the courage to steal him away from me.”

Unknown to Emmy, unwantedly a new enemy was created, who was ready even to kill Emmy to move the thorn from her pathway of getting to Alex.

Luckily, the opportunity which Talsha wanted to harm Emmy came so soon. The next hour was the skill combat section and the master of this session was none other than master Neshag.

In the session, two students had to spar against each other and master Neshag clearly warned the students to control their strength while attacking. Soon groups were divided and women sparred against women while men sparred against men.

The opponent for Alex was surprisingly Jordan and his face was darkened. He looked at master Neshag who had curved up his lips when he saw that Jordan was glaring at him. Master Neshag had done it because he understood Alex really well and he also knew that Alex could not control his strength while attacking his opponents even when they are practising for fun. So the only person who could manage Alex’s attacks was only Jordan while Jordan looked at his body worriedly.

” Hey Jordan, why are you standing there sulking? ”

Mike was gloating over Jordan’s misfortune as once Alex had trained with Jordan and the latter had his shoulders dislocated due to violent attacks from his opponent.

Emmy wanted to relish this opportunity as she hasn’t seen Alex training yet. However, the girl who was to be the opponent suddenly skipped the session giving an excuse of being monthly sick and her opponent now was the sparring princess Talsha.

Emmy was feeling nervous whereas Alex had ultimate confidence in Emmy as he had seen Emmy fight multiple times. After taking all the precautions, the session started.

” Before the session commences, let me warn all students if anyone wants to take out their personnel grudges here and if I feel that you are being unreasonably violent with your opponent, then the next round you have to spar with my assistants here. Meet Houlson Demar and Kiara Lazarian, they will be assisting me in the combat skills sessions.”

Both Houlson and Kiara stepped forward to the arena and gave the students a demo session with sparring sticks. Watching them spar, even Emmy was shocked, she didn’t know that Kiara was this much skilled in fighting. Then she remembered about Kiara talking about her master and the training she received.

” Whoah, look at that sister, I think that she is not taking her full strength to attack still manages to block every attack from the opponent’s side.”

Hearing the comments, Houlson knew that it was true as he also felt that his wife was amazingly skilled and in front of her skills, his skills were only mediocre.

” That means if she wanted, she could have stopped me that day”. For a moment, his concentration wavered and Kiara took this opportunity to break her opponent’s sparring stick.

Admitting his defeat, Houlson got down the arena followed by Kiara. When they got down, he whispered in her ears without anyone noticing.

” So that day, you had already accepted me as your husband and when I forced you, you didn’t retaliate back. ”

Kiara nodded her head.. Houlson felt as if he was in heaven and hell at the same time.
