Chapter 81: Kiss
Her eyes shone brightly, freezing the tears on her reddened cheeks.
"Is there a point?" Henred smiled, "If we both die, she will end up in either the royal family or mine. Both families will look down on her and even use her worse than slaves. She can not return to the human world because His Majesty won't allow our blood to fall into humans' hands."
There was no place for them.
In spite of her indignation, Sara recorded her former husband's words well, "He won't let us leave the kingdom? Then…"
Henred nodded, "He will imprison you two. Fortunately, I am no longer associated with you, so the king will spare my family."
"We are your family…" Sara whispered.
Although it seemed like no more tears would come out, Sara let out one hot tear that fell onto Celia's babyface.
In a little dullahan's body, a shift happened. Something sleeping within her awakened, then promptly sealed itself again.
It lasted a second, but Henred noticed it.
"That was…" he whispered in disbelief.
But before he could make any moves to confirm his thoughts, Sara turned around and slapped her hand on the new system message.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was a message about Deathwill Castle!
"I will treasure our memories… but Celia will never learn about you," Sara replied with her face and hair messed up, "I hope she will never remember you."
At last, Sara and Celia ran away from the Dullahan Kingdom.
"Wait!" Henred extended his hand, hoping he would be able to stop her.
Alas, Sara was long since gone.
[Present.]
Schnee, Stella, and Alex wore different expressions after Sara's story.
It wasn't just a story about her former husband but also Sara's childhood. They learned about the hardships she had gone through to get recognized by dullahans.
Half-breeds never had it easy in many kingdoms, even those with a royal parent. If Sara had a bloodline of someone closer to dullahans, like vampires, for example, then her situation would've been better.
Alas, that was not the case.
Her other half belonged to humanity, known for its recklessness, greed, and adaptation. They were a bunch of weird creatures.
"He and his whole family are assholes. No wonder they lost their status and strength a few times. Selfishness runs in their veins. That asshole's ancestors must have given up on many people," Schnee commented.
"You are right. His family was in jeopardy a few times," Sara faintly smiled.
Schnee chuckled, "I heard that 'horse shit' is a taboo word in the dullahan's dictionary. Is it true?"
She asked this question to relieve the atmosphere.
Alex was honestly thankful to Schnee as he was at a loss of words. He couldn't find the right words again, his inexperience revealing his young age.
He could only stare at Sara with palpable sadness around him.
"It is," Sara nodded a few times, feeling better, "I always feel better when I recall myself using that word."
And then, Sara noticed Alex's expression, "I'm fine, Alex. This is already a past, and I am already past it. Celia turned out into a good and adorable child who treasures the people around her. I also found new happiness and goals."
Alex smiled faintly, "That man felt trapped by his power, didn't he?"
"Yes," Sara nodded.
"If I show signs of getting drunk with my power or your power, I want you all to slap me thrice," Alex said seriously.
He was in a position where he held the reins of the Deathwill Castle's powers. Even though his power depended on Deathwill Sisters and his relationship with them, Alex saw a different path at the beginning of his game.
The world was vast, and he kept getting his own skills. No power could shackle him.
If he were to become the king or the guild master, or even both, then such an event surely would affect him and his mindset.
He would shift his principles, wouldn't he?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAnd even if it was highly unlikely he would change, Alex wanted to engrave Sara's story into his heart and have her former husband as an example for the future.
"Close your eyes, Alex," Sara suddenly said with a chuckle.
Alex did as she said. A few seconds later, he felt a soft texture on his lips. He would never mistake that feeling.
It was a kiss.
It tasted different, and Alex also felt a different warmth. That feeling significantly differed from the kisses he had with Olivia. There were many emotions behind this kiss. Yet again, it was just a peck, yet Alex could taste a different world and woman.
As Alex opened his eyes, he saw three sisters looking at him.
Sara still sat still, as if she hadn't moved, "With this, you will never forget this day. You will never forget your words too. If you do, I will gently kiss you again. It should trigger the memories and your oath."
Schnee lifted her chin and smiled as if sneering, "Has big sister become headless, and just her head flew to you? Or did she move that sexy body to crawl her way to you? With your eyes closed, you couldn't tell! Thus, you shall remember this kiss for an eternity!
Did I sound like a priest?" Schnee laughed out loud.
Sara blushed, "It's not a marriage oath, silly… It's a promise between us, right, Alex?"
Alex smiled broadly, "Yes."
Schnee whistled, "You didn't get embarrassed at all. Sigh."
Although Schnee said this, she enjoyed Alex's red cheeks and his expression.
Alex threw her a suggestive glance, "I lack experience with women, but my girlfriend and I are not shy about kissing. I believe I am pretty good in this area."
Schnee scoffed to hide her inexperience, "So you have a girlfriend, and you have never tried out all fun stuff with her? No wonder big sis has fallen. Sigh!"
"You have been sighing too much lately," Alex grinned, making Schnee close her lips completely.
