_MOONSHINE CASTLE_

The door was creaked open welcoming a familiar figure that looked dull, broken. Aaron stepped in with hesitation. His pair of dark red eyes instinctively searched for a familiar figure whom he probably wouldn't see ever. He swallowed hard bitterly to suppress those pain and stumbled inside the room.

A sweet fragment quickly travelled inside his nostrils that made him pausing in his track. Her scent was still there to torment his broken soul. The pain in his eyes increased further surging from his veins to his heart eventually.

He walked two steps forward and suddenly fell down over the floor after letting his own guard down. Aaron sat by the side of his king sized back and leant against it comfortably. His pair of phoenix eyes were full of misery when he remorised each and every memories that was shared between them.

How miserable his life could be more than this? He didn't only lose his wife but his children whom he dreamt of carrying in his arms lovingly. A piece of distant memory quickly came in and out from his vision clutching his heart like a sharp dagger.

Exhaling a painful breathing, his head dropped behind and felt the softness of their bed silently. His eyes subconsciously closed off to feel this loneliness more deeply. He murmured curling his pale lips into a bitter smile,

" You finally left me! "

When he immersed himself in his bittersweet memories, the door was flung open lightly followed by a familiar smiling figure. Vanessa came in holding a tray of glass and looked around for Aaron. Finding the man on the floor, she was a bit surprised and later assumed that he might be in heartbroken state.

Her eyes eventually lit up in excitement. She touched her own makeup, hairs cautiously to keep them placed and walked over to him putting on a wide smile. As Aaron didn't notice her presence, he was stil in dillemma regarding Esme's dissaparence and continued pondering in his own bizarre thoughts.

Vanessa nudged her bottom lips nervously and approached step by step very cautiously. Though she didn't know what happened on the battlefield, she was confident about possesing Aaron under this magical herb. She paused in front of him and crunched down beside him.

When the man still didn't open up his eyes, Vanessa filled agitated and called him out unhappily,

" My Lord, are you unwell? "

Aaron jolted snapping open his eyes and glanced up at Vanessa confusingly. He didn't even notice when the door was pulled open. Aaron shook his head lightly and replied in a hoarse voice,

" I am good. What do you want? "

Vanessa felt awkward at his rude attitude towards her. Forcing a wide smile, Vanessa offered him the glass sweetly,

" It's nothing. Princess Athena has asked me to send you this blood. You need to recover yourself fast. Please have this blood and don't torture yourself anymore. Let bygones be bygones."

Aaron wasn't sure what she meant exactly but he wasn't in mood of drinking anything. Waving his hands dismissively, he refused indifferently,

" I don't need to drink, Vanessa. Take it away and leave me alone for a while."

Vanessa's face sank as she started scratching her brain. She couldn't left this tray alone here. What if someone discovered her secret?

She gulped nervously and picked up the courage to pursue Aaron sweetly. Putting on a wide smile, she chose her tricky words cautiously and said,

" How..how can this be left like that? Aaron, you need to recuperate for the sake of Esme. Don't.. don't you want to find her soon? "

As expected, Aaron looked up at her hopefully. His eyes lit up in hope and reached for the glass hastily. Vanessa secretly heavied a sigh of relief and watched the man with her pair of white excited eyes.

Aaron lifted up the glass in his lips and was going to take a huge gulp. Under Vanessa's watchful gaze, he suddenly paused and narrowed his gaze dangerously gazing down into the liquid. Vanessa felt her heart thumping wildly when Aaron started to inspect the blood neatly.

Just when she pursued her lips to say something, there was a bang inside the room. Aaron broke off the glass thunderously and looked up at Vanessa with a pair of murderous eyes. Before Vanessa could retreat back, she was being pressed against the hard wall harshly.

She choked to breath and looked up at Aaron frighteningly who was holding her up in the air against the cold wall behind them. Aaron gasped to calm his anger and asked hoarsely,

" Vanessa!!!!! What did you put in my drink? Speak before I behead you."

Vanessa choked vigorously unable to speak and trembled violently under his clasp. Her eyes were dialeted slightly as she didn't understand how did Aaron figure it out. When Aaron was on the verge of suffocating her to death, Jasper suddenly showed up on the doorway and was stunned immediately after showing the commotion inside the room.

He cleared his throat and called out Aaron urgently,

'" My..My Lord..We have an urgent situation."

Aaron didn't loose his grip and glanced back at Jasper scrutinising his murderous eyes. Jasper was little taken back and reported cautiously,

" The fairies are heading for our world. We are assuming that they are here to pickup Lady Esme. I think you should give them a visit."

Aaron's expression dropped at the mention of fairies as he let go of Vanessa slowly. Vanessa fell off and started to cough vigorously.

Aaron walked over to Jasper hastily and ordered,

" Keep this shrewd locked inside the dungeon untill I return. Let's go to the border fast. They owe an explanation from me."

Jasper nodded and summoned some guards to capture Vanessa. Later both of them led for their border accompanied by Athena and their troops quickly.

At the border side, Athena didn't go forward in fear of meeting Ethan. She decided to hide inside the troops and secretly observed their each movements.

Aaron was in front with Jasper and looked up in the sky where the fairies were descending down slowly. One by one, the fairies all landed down opposite of them and looked up at them murderously which Aaron didn't mind.

Aaron and his troops were exceptionally calm at their presence and didn't show any disdain on their faces. Moments later, a figure finally landed down in front of all the fairies and looked up at Aaron murderously.

Aaron frowned at his identity in his thoughts and heard Jasper's voice beside his ears,

" My Lord, he is the second Prince Ethan Chole and the new king of Dalastia."

Aaron's expression warmed as he greeted Ethan with a low bow respectively,

" King Ethan, welcome to our world."

Aaron was respective towards Ethan. After all, they shared a nominal relationship and Ethan was Esme's elder brother. Ethan cut off his politeness harshly and roared impatiently,

" Cut off your drama, King Aaron. Just tell me, where is my sister?"

Behind all this chaos, Athena had to clench her fists nervously. It had been a long time since she heard his voice last.

How much he changed during this time? Did he think of her once?
