SPELLBOUND

Chapter 694 Hopefully

After the problem with the vampires were finally dealt with by Beatrice and Evie, harmony at last reigned in the entire land of Lirea.

Though the vampires and humans were still unable to fully get comfortable with each other right off the bat, there have however, been improvements in the months that had passed since the day Princess Beatrice, now Queen of dark faes had reappeared and made her presence known in the vampire land.

Evie knew of course that they needed time, perhaps a very long time in fact, for both vampires and humans to finally accept each other fully on the base level before they even start to mingle with each other without boundaries. Time and patience were needed. A lot of it. But for now, the vampires were focusing on changing their lifestyle. To no longer depend on human blood to live.

During the time Gavriel took the throne, he had released most of the human prisoners. However, many humans had chosen to stay in the vampire land. They had their families in the vampire land and there were also many of them who sincerely wanted to stay back as well. They have lived their whole lives there and had adapted and acclimatized, and had no wish to move and needed to readjust to that new place. Many humans also expressed their desire that they actually did not mind giving the vampires their blood, as long as there was no abuse occurring. They could look at it as giving it as a blood donation. Hence, the vampires who were in positions of leadership were also working on new laws to prevent the abuse of humans who were willing to give their blood.

Everything was going on smoothly. Peacefully. One would even think Evie's campaign in reuniting the land of Lirea as a united kingdom had gone way too easily. Easier than anyone could have ever imagined. It was like Queen Evie had done it with magic. Or perhaps, the absence of bloodbath was what made it look easy in the eyes of some.

...

"Mother!" Evie, who was standing by the veranda of the Lightfall castle, the newly built castle that was oozing with elegance and magic towering in the heart of the Middle Land, heard her bundle of joy's voice calling out for her. His young and exuberant tone was like a gust of fresh air, lifting her spirits and soothing her soul.

"Yes, my son?" a soft smile bloomed on Evie's face as she bent down and stretched her hands out towards her son, waiting for him to run into her embrace as he usually does.

But the little boy did not rush over into Evie's arms as expected, causing her to raise a brow at his peculiar behaviour.

"I'm a big boy now, mother. I don't need to be carried in your arms anymore." The little prince tilted his chin ever so lightly before telling his mother with his face set into what he perceived was a serious and stern mien, his voice full of conviction. His blue and grey eyes were gleaming with willpower that made Evie's smile widen even more at her son's insistence.

"But your mother still wants to carry you, my little prince. Are you going to deny your mother the joy of holding you in her arms?" Evie played the pitiful card, her eyes blinking as she wiggled all her fingers in her outstretched hands at him, her actions telling him wordlessly to come to her.

He cocked his head to the side and blinked at her a few times while standing still. His brows furrowed a little, as though he was thinking through this particular problem and how to best arrive at a middle-ground solution before he finally walked forward into his mother's arms. However, once enveloped in his mother's embrace, the little boy snuggled closer to his mother as he enjoyed breathing in the unique scent that only belonged to her - a light fragrance of spring mixed in with the sharp and pure scent of light and power.

"Are you going to take me with you when you go visit grandpa and grandma in the Underlands?" the little prince asked as the mother and son stood by the veranda, looking over at the beautiful view of Crescia.

"I'm sorry, but I can't take you with me, darling." Evie replied softly, "There is something very important your mother needs to deal with there this time around. So, I'll need to have you stay here in the castle and wait for my return. Don't worry. As always, mother will return to be with you as soon as possible."

The prince stared at her. His large, adorable eyes seemed to be observing and contemplating on things deeper than what was on the surface. But then, he smiled and nodded. "I'll be a good boy as always and watch over the castle while you're away, Mother."

Evie chuckled at her son's cuteness. "That's my amazing little prince." She kissed her son's head and hugged him tight, feeling her heart overflowing with gratefulness and love for this little bundle of joy in her life.

The last several years had been so busy, Evie felt that time had come and gone so fast. But she was more than thankful for it for one simple reason. Because it was finally time for her to return to that place. To the place where she left her beloved husband. Gav.

She had badly wanted to take their son along with her to welcome his father. Wanting him to be one of the first who will see Gav, his father, once he was out of the crystal.

But after much deliberation, Evie had decided to leave her son here on the surface. Though she knew she was more powerful now ever since that day, she also knew that with his entrapment, Gav's power definitely would have also changed as well.

Even she could not tell what the outcome would be once she lets him out. No one knows what will happen. Because after almost five years, Evie had never had any other dreams or visions that could allow her to see even a glimpse of what will happen in the future.

Missing Gav had been a torture. She was thankful because aside from having their son, she was also very occupied with everything else that had been happening - from the governing of Crescia, to overseeing the running of the united kingdom of Lirea and also involving herself in the talks and efforts in having more collaboration between the races - her time was never idle nor dull. However, it had made it easier for her to cope with Gav's absence.

Finally now was the time she had been waiting for.

It was finally time for her to release him from his entrapment and only hope for the better.
