A novel of An Encounter chapter 27
NEXT MORNING; RHEAGARS CHAMBERS
Of course things wouldn't be the same for kaira after yesterday, she stood by the window hugging herself as she starred at the nice view of the morning sun.
Many thoughts ran through her head in one second one of which was the remorse she still felt, no matter how it was placed,she still lost one child and no amount of comfort could fill the hole she had in her heart, she turned to rheagar watching him sleep not quite peacefully. she could see the pain and stress written all over his face.
she took slow steps towards him seating beside him as she touched his face.
"How does it do it?" She asked herself, she was marveled by his amount of composure and self reservance he had.
"Kaira?" Phoenix called out to her.
"You know rheagar will always be there for you ,he loves you with everything so you have to be strong just for his sake" she went on.
A little smile curved on kaira's lips listening to her speak, no lie the wolf was always there for her, no matter how diverse their thinking was when it came to the bond, it was there.
"He would have been happy if I had the twins" She broke down slowly, it wasn't something she could just forget in a minute yes she would live with it but the fact was still the same, crystal shaped tears dropped from the corner of her eyes slowly.
she immediately cleaned it off "No more tears from now on, the more I'm weak the more rheagar gets weak, for his sake I'll have to be strong for us" she motivated herself.
"That's the kaira I know" Phoenix cheered her to brighten the mood.
"I want to do something " she stood up, she sighed briefly walking out of the room.
Rheagar opened his eyes to the sound of the door closing,he looked to his side but kaira was gone, looked around the whole room but she wasn't there.
"where could she have gone?"- he muttered ,he got off the bed heading out of the room.
"Can you send for commander lanister?" Kaira asked one of the guards at the gate,he bowed heading out out fetch the man.
"what do you plan to do kaira?" Phoenix asked.
"You'll see" she waited for the man to arrive.
"My queen, you called for me?" Commander lanister came in.
"Apologies for the disturbance but I really need your help,I need to send a message" she went straight to the point.
"To whom my queen?" The man asked .
"Red keep, you'll write ........" she told him everything he needed to write.
"Very well my queen, your message will be delivered the soonest" he nodded taking in everything she said.
"Thank you commander" she smiled at the man.
"You've always stood by and supported me, I'm grateful for that" she had to commend him.
" You're a good queen my queen, and I always support the good" he smiled. he bowed and walked out back to his home.
she also turned back walking into the Palace.
"Kaira?" She saw rheagar walk towards her.
"I just came out for a walk and didn't want to wake you" she lied half-hearted.
"Oh,I couldn't find you so I came out come on" He took her hands.
"Rheagar?" she called out making him stop.
"Can you get me apples" she smiled cheekly at him, rheagar smiled happily, after yesterday he didn't think she would recover so quickly.
" I'm craving it so will you?" She pouted.
"I.. of ..of course I will, right now at that!" he said hurriedly.
" and the ones with..." she trailed.
"Red and green together,yes I know" he completed making her smile more.
"Then what are you waiting for, this queen needs her apples" she ordered instantly.
"Yes my queen, let me take you to the room I'll definitely get your very special apples" he smiled finally he found his smile back.
"They're so special " she grinned holding his arm as they walked back.
" what's your favorite fruit rheagar?" She asked him as they reached the room.
"what makes something your favorite?" he asked her back.
"Well.. something you love so much like you can't just not get tired of it, for instance how I love running or this unusual craving for apples which is now my favorite fruit, which is weird because I never did like it it's just there on a tree either in red or green but when I saw the two colors together I fell in love with the color" She gibbered , it warmed his heart to hear the calmness and joy in her voice as she spoke.
"Bladder mouth 2.0" he teased.
"You didn't answer my question what's your favorite fruit or any thing" she pulled his arm.
"hmmmm" he crunched his jaw.
"Well if something I like or can't do without I would say..your lips,your eyes, your beautiful face,sweet voice,everything about you kaira ,you're my favorite" He stated with that grin on his lips, she felt butterflies in her stomach hearing his words ,the way it sounded in her ear ...oh loving.
"That's...that's.. gosh!!!" her cheeks were burning red chillies.
" Rheagar!!!" it was too much to handle, how can one person make her lose her mind by just his words.
"Relax queen I haven't even done anything yet" that mischievous smirk came he stepped up to her closing every gap between them.
"Do..do what,I want my apples go bring them" she cleared her throat in anxiety, she didn't know why but each time he was close to her or even touched her the slightest it would turn every unsane thought in her head.
" when something is your favourite, you can't just do without it right? so how can I do without you kaira" the way her name came out of his mouth, it felt so melodious in her ears.
His hands took her waist pulling her closer to his body.
"Rheagar ....I just...want..my apples" she stammered.
"And I want what's my favourite" he brought his face closer to hers, as there breath mixed in the middle.
he leaned in pressing his lips on hers as he kissed her, she closed her eyes succumbing to his affection.
"Feel better?" he pulled away smiling down at her.
she nodded slowly, she felt the peace and ease in him, calmness and comfort came from just one kiss ,it was like all the thinking the struggle washed away.
"I'll go get your apples now my love,I'll be back" He left her ,he kissed her forehead heading out of the room..
Kaira smiled to herself, she touched her lips reliving it again and again.
Her gaze hardened has she remembered the cause of her pain.
"I've never done anything to those people but they still hurt me, I'll make them pay no matter what!" she sneered ,her eyes sparking in anger and fury.
LATER THAT DAY; ARMY GROUND
King balem stood watching the army prepare, they gathered their sword,armor ,shield and everything they needed, the runners were on the other side perfecting their skills.
One thing about thageran was their runners they had the best running wolves and best fighters.
"This sudden war wasn't supposed to happen, why would elowen do that?" he asked himself.
"Your grace" the guard walked up to him.
"King Arthur and his army are here!" that news just made King balem smile.
"Let's go" He walked out.
A whole pack of 150 wolves lined up in front of the royal gate, Arthur had brought his entire army along with his strongest wolves.
"Arthur" King balem came out, he was surpised to see the pack.
"Grandfather" Arthur moved to him.
"I got ready immediately I got your message,where's rheagar?" he asked.
"He's somewhere, he's really angry and furious but I don't blame him, if elfredom wants war it's war their going to get!" king balem stated.
"Southern pack is always ready to fight" Arthur assured him.
"Let's go In,come" they both walked back into the Palace.
"Arthur?" Rheagar saw them coming.
"Rheagar!" he embraced him immediately.
"How's kaira, I'm so sorry" Arthur sighed.
"She's taking it well, thanks for coming" rheagar said.
"You're like my brother, If anyone challenges you their fighting me also, elfredom will have to pay" Arthur stated.
~ RHEAGARS CHAMBERS ~
Kaira sat facing her concave mirror, she took her brush combing her sighing in between.
She placed her hand on her stomach smiling shortly.
"I'm sorry baby, I couldn't save your brother" she muttered.
"I won't let anything happen to you, nothing" she stated.
"Kaira?" She turned to the door, the brightest smile formed on her face seeing the person.
"Alura!" she stood up rushing to her.
she hugged immediately like never before.
"I had to come immediately I read grandfather's letter, how are you?" alura pulled away.
She touched her cheek and smiled,still feeling the life form of the child in her.
"Now that you're here I'm already better,thank you" kaira smiled back.
"Your room looks beautiful and the scent oh my!" alura gushed.
"Irish"
"Irish"
They both laughed together.
"Thank you for coming alura, it means alot" kaira said to her.
"Come let's go if we're bringing elfredom down we have to stay together and strong ,I had my emity with that kingdom for while now, its time to get revenge !" alura smiled, they left the room heading to the throne room where the rest where.
"Just as we planned before, Arthur and I and will lead the runners through their main gates, Then commander lanister and grandfather will lead the army after that" rheagar said the whole plan.
"I didn't hear my name?" kaira stepped in.
"I'm coming with you" she walked up to rheagar.
"I know you want to kaira ,but it's dangerous and I can't risk you getting hurt" he tried explaining.
"nothing will happen to me, i want to be there to kill who ever the queen is!" she stated sharply.
"And I'm coming to, its High time elfredom had a taste of their own medicine" Alura added .
Rheagar and Arthur sighed at the same time, arguing with either of the ladies would be pointless.
"Fine, but if anything goes wrong commander lanister you get them both out of there ,by now they know we're coming" rheagar said .
"I'll make a protection spell to counterfeit their dark magic but I'm going to need your blood rheagar,it's the only thing able to hinder their magic from affecting us" Alura stated.
"Okay" ,she walked out and came back in with am empty bowl, she dropped the bowl in front of him.
"Being a pure blood does come with advantages " rheags chuckled as he slit his palm letting a whole lot of blood drip out.
"That's nature for you, there's always a loophole to every bad creation" Alura muttered.
she placed her hand in the bowl and muttered a spell ,his blood magically turned till it stopped.
"With this, there magic won't able to work on us, drink up " she passed the bowl from Arthur round the table.
"and the army?" King balem asked her dropping the bowl.
"No need to worry grandfather," alura said.
"We won't kill the villagers only their army ,my aim is queen elowen once we have her their won't be any more reason to fight" rheagar stated.
Kaira placed her hand in his smiling at him "thank you" she muttered.
"She's going to pay with her head" Phoenix uttered.
"Definitely" kaira answered her.
