Chapter 21 24 CARAT GOLD RING
With Josty on his back, Warren rushed to the Angel’s realm.
Geraldine, the guard stopped him at the entrance”It’s past visiting hours”
“Get out of my way”Warren growled.
“Don’t let me use force-”
“I SAID GET OUT OF MY WAY! CANT YOU SEE SHE’S UNCONSCIOUS!?” Warren shouted.
Geraldine noticed Josty and allowed him in quickly.
In the girls’ room, Alexa checked the wall clock.
It was 7:30pm. She turned to face Celine”Hey, where did Josty go? She’s been gone since morning”
Karina shook her head”I don’t know”
Their door burst open as the boys made their way in.
“Hey, are you insane? What happened to knocking?” Karina screamed.
“What have the three of you been doing all day that you didn’t bother to look for Josty!”Warren shouted pointing from one girl to the other.
Mikasa held Warren back”That isn’t important right now. We need to take her to Nurse Rosa”
Alexa wrinkled her brow”Did something happen to Josty?”
“Yes. She fainted. How could you allow her leave in her state!?”
“Warren!”Jerrire shouted pushing him away from Alexa”Calm down”
Warren took in deep breaths as Jerrire took Josty from his back.
He turned to face Karina”Lead the way to Nurse Rosa”
“Y-Yes”Karina stuttered as they left.
Annoyed, Warren walked out of the room and went out for fresh air.
Alexa followed suite.”Warren, i-”
“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have shouted at you like that”
Alexa smiled slightly”It’s okay. Thank you for taking care of Josty”
Warren scratched the back of his head”What about you? Are you okay?”
“What do you mean?”
“I mean, the news is already everywhere now about Lord Damien’s marriage”
“Oh, that? I’m okay. Don’t worry about me”
Warren’s eyes widened as he stared at Alexa.
It was clear to him now. The way she’d easily brushed him off, made it clear.
He knew her so well that even if she wasn’t speaking with words, he would understand her.
“Have you always know?”Warren asked.
Alexa blinked her eyes in confusion”What?”
“Have you always known that I like you?”Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Alexa’s eyes widened. Did she make it obvious?
She looked away from his eyes”Yes”
Slowly, tears started forming in the Warren’s eyes”Was that why you confessed your feelings about Lord Damien infront of me?”
“Yes”
Warren smiled slightly in pain as he wiped his tears”You are a bad woman, Alexa”
“Warren-”
“It’s late. I’m quite beat. Let me know how Josty is doing, okay?”
Alexa watched as Warren transformed to his grey wolf form and left her.
When he got back to the realm, Anglassia stopped him outside.
“Warren, is everything al-”
“Later, Anglassia.”he said before entering inti his room and slamming the door.
He threw his jacket across his bed as the container fell out from it to the ground.
Warren picked it up and opened it as he looked at the words scribbled on it.
“What love is coming true exactly?” He muttered to himself as he closed the small container, dropped it on the top of his reading table, climbed up on his bed and drifted to sleep.
As Warren slept, the walls of the demon realm shook “WHAT DID YOU SAY?!”Damien growled.
Laura trembled upon the thunder of his voice. She wasn’t feeling all so courageous as before.
“I mean-”
“Did Miss Higgins tell you she was going to get married to him?”
“No, my-”
“Then why ask for my blessing!?”
“If you don’t give it to them, I will”Gezelle said making her presence known.
Her long red gown trailing behind her.
Damien balled his fist as he rushed up to Gezelle and grabbed her by her neck”For the last time, so interfering with in my business! Do this one more time and I swear by anything you believe in that I will kill you!”
Damien let go off her neck as Gezelle was left to choke.
He turned back to face Laura”You! This had better the last time I ever see your face again. GET OUT!”
Laura hastenly got up in her feet as she scurried away.
“You are weak. Think about it, why are you stressing yourself over a good -for- nothing angel?”Gezelle cried out in pain.
“Don’t talk about her that way!”
“And why shouldn’t I?”Gezelle stood up from the ground as she brushed her gown”You as well as I know that she will never be yours. You can try as much as you want, but never in a million years”
Gezelle turned around left his chambers.
When she got to her own room, she screamed”Alexa, I’ll get you married to Faren if it’s the last thing I do”
She called for her helper, Amelia.
“Yes, my queen”
Gezelle handed her an envelope”Deliver this letter to that angel called Alexa tonight, is that taken?”
“Yes, my queen”
Amelia took the letter as she excused herself and went about her task.
Alexa still stood frozen in her spot where Warren had left her.
Was this the end of their friendship?
Alexa knocked her head”You idiot, how did you slip up?”
As she turned around to leave, a strong hand grabbed her.
She turned around smiling thinking it was Warren”Warr-”
Lo and behold, it was Faren Infront of her.
Alexa removed her hand from his grip”How dare you touch me?”
Faren bowed his head at her”My apologies”
“What do you want?”
“Just 10 minutes of your time”
Alexa sighed”I’m all ears. What is it?”
“A news seems to have reached my ears about-”
“Lord Damien’s wedding is none of my business”Alexa said angrily.
She was tired of hearing about the wedding all day.
And how did people find out about her and Damien?
Faren smiled”It’s not if my business either and that’s not what I wanted to say”
“Then what?”
“I actually heard about the fact that he used your feelings. Ouch!”
“And so what? Are you here to mourn my feelings with me?”
“Quite the contrary. I’m actually here to give you some advice”
Alexa said nothing.
“Since the Damien played with your feelings, why don’t you show him that he meant nothing to you either. That he wasn’t the only one who was being played”
Alexa folded her arms”So what do you imply?”
Faren smirked as he opened up a small box infront of her showing a gold 24 carat ring “Marry me”
