Chapter 1042: All of them were in pain
[Can I have your man for one last time?]
Serefina's voice echoed inside Lilac's head for the first time. It sounded so weak and powerless, just like how she looked right now.
At first, Lilac didn't understand what Serefina meant and was quite surprised when her voice suddenly echoed inside her head, because all this time, Lilac had only used mind- link to communicate with Jedrek.
Lilac then lifted her head and saw Serefina's pained expression, only to see how she was pleading with her eyes. As if this was her last hope.
Can I have your man for one last time?
Your man...
One last time...
Was this the end of the three of them?
Despite what had happened between her and Serefina, Lilac still didn't want them to end up like this. This was too much...
This war had already cost them too many lives and Serefina was too important for them to lose... No matter what happened.
Lilac felt her throat tighten and she had difficulty breathing. This was exacerbated by the fact when the Guardian Angel lifted her head and her eyes met Jedrek's.
There was no emotion in those eyes, or perhaps, he was too drowned out in sadness that he was about to lose his true love? No one knew for sure. No one could explain the meaning behind his expression except for Jedrek himself.
Lilac was trying to find something that wasn't inside Jedrek's red eyes. As red as the sky above them. As red as the blood that had flowed in this war.
Still, Lilac found nothing in there.
The guardian angel just wanted to know what he was feeling right now. Was he feeling sad? Regret, for leaving Serefina for herself? Or did he now wish he could go back in time and choose the witch over her?
What?
What is it?
What did he feel now? Lilac wanted to know.
However, she did not get the answer.
Instead, she again heard Serefina's voice in her head, who spoke ina soft and weak pleading tone.
[Please...]
Serefina never begged anyone before. She would never lower herself to beg for something. Even when she was so desperate to ask Jedrek to choose her, the witch did not, because she knew what was best for both of them.
At least, it was a decision she had continued to believe in during their hundreds of years apart.
Especially begging Lilac. The woman, who Serefina desperately hated, and was been chosen by Jedrek. A woman who was very lucky that she could be with the love of Serefina's life. The woman who had touched every inch of the man's skin, the way she touched him before.
However, now the witch did it.
She begged her.
She pleaded the only woman she hated, but was also afraid to hurt, because then she would hurt Jedrek too and Serefina didn't want do that.
The last pure- blooded witch lowered herself to beg Lilac.
An action that could be said to be almost unbelievable from someone as arrogant as Serefina.
It was just that, in some way, this kind of act was quite similar to what Jedrek had done to save Lilac in the past.
When everyone thought that the king would never bend his knees in front of anyone, he did it, for Lilac. For his mate.
This similarity tore Lilac's heart even further.
The two of them did everything for the people that were important to them.
Lilac was indeed important to Jedrek, because of the mate bond between them. There was no way Jedrek would let Lilac get hurt before his eyes.
However, what if there was no mate bond between them? Would he do the same? But, definitely, Jedrek would do it for Serefina, right?
What they had was very pure…
This thought only made Lilac fell deeper into her sorrow.
But, she didn't want to leave Serefina's side feeling devastated and heartbroken like this.
If it really was the last time, then she wanted this to be something she wouldn't regret.
[Please ...]
Therefore, when Serefina begged for the second time, Lilac tried to force a smile on her face and leaned over.
She wanted to let go whatever feeling that she felt now. Not for Serefina or Jedrek, but for herself...
The guardian angel side within Lilac did not allow her to feel this resentment too deeply.
And because of that, Lilac leaned over and kissed Serefina's forehead and the back of her hand with which the witch was holding her tightly and nodded softly, before standing up finally.
Jedrek, who did not know what had been discussed between Serefina and Lilac, stared at his mate with an expression on his face that was still emotionless.
Meanwhile, on the other hand, before Lilac let go of the witch's hand and left the two of them alone, Serefina had time to say her last words to Lilac in the same way.
[Thank you and goodbye ...]
Yes, maybe this was a goodbye for them ...
It was hard to swallow how this all was going to end, when previously Lilac always wondered how it all would end.
And even if she knew this would be the end of the three of them, would Lilac feel any better?
Even so, regardless of everything, Lilac knew in the depths of her heart that she didn't want Serefina to end up like this...
She wanted the witch to continue living and have her own happiness. Meet someone and fall in love just like how she loved Jedrek.
Maybe it was just Lilac's selfishness...
Because the fact that they have to face everything before their eyes now...
Lilac bit down her lips, tears started flowing down her cheeks without her realizing it. Her heart felt very heavy as if her chest was caving in.
And when Lilac turned around to walk away from the two of them, she missed a pair of red eyes that were staring at her back. The regret in his eyes and sadness that no one could decipher.
How it hurt him for the way he hurt her.
He was in pain too…
All of them were in pain…
