CHAPTER 137
It felt as though her sacrifice to be his bride was for not and yet she lost her kingdom and people. So her life meant nothing to her anymore and she was willing to throw it away.
But now was different.
At least Vemini's torment made it so and made him realize just how much pain she felt but then, he was cursed and he should not even want to chase after this love of the one who would bring his ruin but he could not help himself.
Rather he wanted her even more, pushing the curse further.
He really was pathetic one would say but at this point, Vidor was so much in love that he did not know it and did all his heart wanted.
"Since you haven't asked, I would tell you." She looked at him again. His jealousy really was something else.
She did not know if he was testing her to see who she cared for but she wished he didn't actually.
"I got injured while chasing after your pouch."
"I see."
"Huh? Just that? No thank you or even sorry?"
"Well since you are well now no need to worry. I guess my herbs did work, so thank you and sorry that chasing after my pouch made you hurt."
Though he got the thank you and the sorry, he was expecting something more. Like her care to see the injury or a touch from her but he got nothing.
No, she was all cold.
Seeing that their discussion was not heading in any way useful, he tried to speak about other things.
"Thanks for the herbs. They really helped me though."
"Welcome, your majesty."
"Yes." For a few minutes, they were both silent.
It was such an awkward meeting and this was why she really wanted to leave. They had nothing more to discuss.
What was more, Aeverie made her agree not to mention the Chamber of Chronicles to him so she had nothing more to discuss.
Just then, Vidor thought of gearing their conversation another way. So he tried again.
"Can't you stay for another hour?"
"Your majesty, one hour is a lot and..."
"Okay fine. Stay the night and ..."
"The what?"
No. She shook her head, making sure her brain got that message that he voiced out clearly.
He said an hour and she was rejecting it because she had stayed away from Eleora too long that day and now he wanted her to stay the night?
Please.
Yes, Vidor knew his request was absurd and that he was pushing his luck but he was so scared of her leaving. He knew deep down that when she did, he would not be able to get her easily and he wanted to just watch her even if he could not do anything else.
So he selfishly asked her to stay the night.
"Yes. Stay the night with me, Era."
"I can't."
"Why? You are my queen, so it is only natural that..." Era became angry. How dare he come to her and say that? Did he think she could just throw all that had happened to her like that?
"On what grounds and occasion, your majesty?" Era stood up in anger, her eyes blazing with untold fury as she lashed out at him. "Since when have you ever treated me as your wife?"
"I wanted to the night we got married but you called me a monster and ran from me."
She scoffed. Was that his silly excuse? On their wedding night wasn't he the one acting like a psychopath?
"You cannot blame me when you acted like one and since then what did you do? Act like I did not exist and allowed your minion to treat me like I did not matter and then you went ahead to annihilate all of my people without a single thought. Now tell me in all of these, where did you once treat me as your queen or wife?"
She had a point and he knew it but after his mistake, he started making amends.
"I stood for you against Caspian and Diona when you barged into the assembly. By right I should have had you out to death."
"Whoa! I should clap for you?" Her lips pulled up into a sarcastic smile. "Did I tell you I needed saving in the first place? I wanted to die before but you prevented it. My life was already too terrible, to begin with, and all I wanted was to be left alone in peace."
"Are you serious right now? You would rather die than be with me? Than to be my queen? Is that it?"
Though that was not what she meant since he brought it up, she thought about it. Each time she saw him, she was reminded of what he had done. So, yes she was tired but not tired of living.
At least not anymore. Before yes, but now, no but that did not include being with him.
"Yes. I would rather die than be..."
That was it. Vidor's pain had sky rocked into anger. Even if people had wished him death it would not be as hurting as hearing her say any of this. He loved her for crying out loud.
He wished she would not say it. Not agree with it but she did. Instantly he kicked the water that was by his leg and roared in anger, sending shivers down her spine but Vidor was not done.
"I guess I should grant you that wish then, huh?"
His own eyes burned with rage but were seethed with deep pain in there.
What he did next not only shocked Era but left her speechless as well.
He grabbed her by the hand and led her towards his table, picking up a knife there as he led her straight for the closest wall, slamming her body into it but not with so much force to cause her pain, then he looked deeply into her eyes as he raised the knife to their eye level.
"This is what you want huh? You want to die, huh? Answer me!"
She did not say anything but during that moment, he saw fear flash before her eyes and that had gotten to his angry heart and he stopped speaking then lowered his head.
All that could be heard in that room at that moment was the sound of their uneven deep ragged breath. After about two minutes, he looked back up at her.
No longer was that fear in her eyes. Rather he saw something else he did not quite understand. Her boldness was there, a tad bit of anger, pain inclusive and what was the other?
He couldn't point it out but there was a coldness in there, deep coldness.
She could see his confusion but she made no effort to stop anything or explain herself rather she waited for him to do what he wanted to do.
"Do it then. It is obvious you want to," she dared him. She knew he did not want to but what better way to prick his ego and hurt him than saying that.
She did not need to say out loud that she would rather die, just telling him to kill her was more than enough.
"Damn it! Arrrhhhh!" His screams were deafening still Era did not move a muscle.
"Fine. Since that is what you want the most, I would not give you the luxury of a sweet easy death to join your family. I would let you live, keep you by my side as you were meant to be and watch me. Take what you want from you but I would not kill you and when the time is right, I would have you. My promise on our wedding night, I would not forget, my little rabbit."
He looked deeply into her eyes, bringing his face very close as though he wanted to kiss her and if he did, it would have been so much easier due to the act that his injured hand was holding her neck in place but he was careful not to choke her or tighten it.
It was just to scare her and he succeeded at first but then he wondered if he had done the right thing.
He brought his tongue out, daring himself to taste her lips while reprimanding himself for even thinking of such.
Gosh even in his crazed and angry state, all he could think of was her.
"Damn it!"
That was the last curse he let out and he crashed his lips on hers again but surprisingly, she had expected him to be fierce about it instead he was gently begging for entrance and when she still did not give, he kissed her lips and pulled back, laughing bitterly at himself.
'Damn I want her. I want every bit of her. I am going crazy I know but she is leaving me no choice. She would not leave. I won't let her die. I do not know what I would do if she does. Gods! I curse you Vemini.. I curse you for this.'
