78 Catastrophe's Father

Adhiti

The celebration was very surprising. After Abyss show up and didn't even have a gift for my wedding… I don't mean him to give me gift for my wedding but he is my brother on the Aboveworld…however it wasn't that shocking. The most shocking part in our night celebration is that there is unexpected guest.

He is wearing clothes with class of nobility or more like highness class. With a sword on his waist and holding a box. I stood immediately from my throne… yes it was my throne and then, mutter the only name that I missed.

"George."

"My beloved daughter." He grin at me. I never saw him grin. But really he grins! He's an aspie and grinning is not on his attitude. "I see that you get married without a consultation from me." I glanced at Nick who is all puzzled. I mouthed him his name. He gave me his gift and I embraced him.

"Prince George." Nick acknowledge. I furrow and glare at George. He wink at me. "He is Princess Amanda's brother."

"Holy shit!" I mutter. He laugh that makes him boyish. "You didn't say!"

"Sorry, my dear. Your Uncle was too strict and too serious."

I f@cking really can't believe it! Sorry about the word but I am gonna smack him off for not telling me that he is my Uncle. George is the one who take care of me when I almost died. He found me on the forest and take me to his home, help me change my name and help me to control my expressions and emotions.

"You don't have Asperger's syndrome?" I ask him with frown. He tapped my cheek very gently.

"Don't grimaced my dear, this is supposed to be your wedding. Am I right, King of Era?"

I glare at Nick who bow at him.

"Thank you for taking care of her while I wasn't with her side."

"Oh, don't mind it. She's my favorite niece after all. Sorry I am late, your mother just inform me about this wedding of yours."

"What did you got for me?" I open the small box and my eyes widens to see a dagger. "Why this?"

"Because, my dear. Being a Queen is not just to sit on the throne until your butt hurts and get flat. You are not just a Queen or a wife… that is made of Aer steel and the pearls are tears of the mermaids. It will always make you safe."

"Next time do no surprise me like that. You know I hate those kind of surprises." I hug him again and he hug me warmly.

The dinner was served in our room. It is our mating or should I saw honeymoon. I have no interest in food at this moment because I had eaten a lot in the feast. I ask him to help me undress and he did. Every dress that he take off, he kisses my skin. I know, I know… we should do it all over again to make an heir. If we don't make an heir it might be chaos. But, Aaron can be the next King. He's a good adviser.

"Do you need shower?"

"Yes. I feel so stiff and I badly need a hot bath."

"Okay, I'll wait."

"No. I won't go to bath without you." I heard him chuckle.

"Okay… I'll be with you."

After bathing each other and then making love endlessly… we cuddle again and tell each other's plan for tomorrow. We have to do our duties and Almira will help me together with Agatha and Althea. Agatha showed herself to me yesterday and I apologize on her but I have to do it and she didn't say anything. Instead she bow at me and apologized about her attitude. So… I guess they have to help me now.

"Your step-mother is not going out from her chamber." I mutter as I yawn.

"Let her be. I am sure that Almira will help her to gather herself."

"Where is your destination tomorrow, my gorgeous love?"

"I have to visit far away towns, father didn't make it to protect those people from bandits. He ignore those people so I have to hear them."

"I have to leave Era to Hydōr. They are making Serina's children evil. They are making fun of people who make minor crimes by feeding them instantly to sea monsters."

"I can go with you…"

"No, my love." I tapped his cheek and smiled at him. "I have my Guardian, Luther. Plus Phrixus. About that, I forgot to talk to him." I slipped off from bed and put my thick robe on.

"Where are you going?" he ask.

"Veranda. You sleep. I have to talk to Luther about the dragons." He nod and lay back.

"I'll wait here." He grinned. I throw him the cushion that is on the floor as I walk to the veranda and open the door. Luther showed himself and bow at me with one knee. "You gave me the egg of Fera." I told him.

"It is a good news my Goddess, but the bad news is, they are suffering and slowly dying."

I can feel that Fire or Odessi comes back to my body. I can feel her worries and anger.

"Why suffering? Why dying?"

"We found few of the King's children on a mine of golds. Fera hid the egg that they cannot see. But Fera was nowhere to found and others. They had predicted our presence… I am so sorry my Goddess, they are putting them on slavery. Few of the dragons are already dead only a countable one can be saved. I doubted that it's not where others are."

My heart instantly broke and anger built up on me. Not Odessi right now, but I was the one who's angry. Slavery?! I cannot let that happen all over again. Centuries… they've been slaving the Queen and her children for centuries and it pains me and Phrixus seeing them all in chains.

"We shall voyage to Hydor. I have to deal with them. I have to know how they kill Odessi, and how they took the dragons… I cannot let these things happen again. Ready yourself Warrior, we shall make them pay for their own evil bidding."

"As my Goddess commanded."

"And I need Phrixus, the dragon shall hatched right away." He bow his head and flew away. I walk inside feeling the heat of my anger and walk toward the table near the chimney as the fire dances. I took the egg and hug it.

"Love?" Nick mutter. I put down the egg and walk toward him. I climb on the bed and kiss his lips.

"Sleep my love…" I whisper and hums a lullaby as he slowly fall into a happy sleep. I pull the sheet over his nude chest.

I walk to the veranda holding the egg that is covered in the velvet cloth. I climb up on the marble parapet and look down to see the height. We were in the fourth floor of the castle. I call the wind with me and felt Phrixus' presence. I jump down as the vines of the earth catches me and lead me to Phrixus that is on the wide lawn.
