His Witch Queen-Chapter 180: I love you, Alice!
Whereas, Alice just got up on her toes again. Her face was paler than before with no trace of blood vessels on her neck.
Those grayish hair were all messed up and the gown got dirtier with the mud. She had been sitting on the ground since yesterday.
The night and day passed but there was no presence of the man whom she wished to see. Her longing got entangled with her broken eyes.
’Please Cyrus... Please come back to me. Please my dear husband...’ her inner urges were now clashing with her mind. She had no idea what to see about it anymore or not.
Her eyes turned watery but this time, she held her tears back. Alice didn’t let these tears through her cheeks even once, not anymore.
She tugged her shawl around her shoulders. Taking a deep breath, Alice finally broke the stagnant stare. She had been waiting since too long to not deviate her eyes. Since yesterday, her heart was crumbling down in the waiting.
’Till now.. he would have gone too far already...’ She knew the harsh reality better than anyone else. It grew in her mind and caused immense pain. But recovery was also needed.
As Alice was ready to turn around and walk back inside the palace, a loud shrill voice entered into everyone’s ears.
"ALICEE!!!!!"
Just her name, it made Alice frozr to her spot again. Her eyes bulged together and she slowly turned her face around to once again gaze at that giant gate. ’That voice...’
Her lips parted but no words came out. Just like how was she shocked, so was King Vilas and General Shane. Their head shuttered with the voice.
It wasn’t the end. The giant wooden gates of the palace were opened by the soldiers. Each second paper microsecond to Alice. Just the small open finder the gate and then, her eyes fell upon the tall man who stood with his sword in his hands.
’Cyrus...’ Alice’s heart trumped against her chest. There was no way she was hallucinating right now.
For a minute, neither did Alice nor Cyrus move from their place. They both gazed at each other with the unbelievable flashes that were still not going away.
But then, a small smirk curved on Cyrus’s lips. Their eyes communicated with each with a bundle of emotions.
There was no delay either. Cyrus ran in Alice’s direction while Alice too walked towards him. Their pace wasn’t slow and with intensity, they both ran in each other’s direction.
The urge to be in each other’s arms was rapidly increasing. Their thrust didn’t stop and just as they collided with each other, both of their arms swirled around each other’s body. Their grip was tighter than ever and Cyrus’s hand was holding her through her waist while Alice had held his neck.
"Y-you...you..came back..." she muttered under her breath, which made Cydus plant a small kiss on her forehead and then once again keep his head in the pouch of her neck, "I had to.. Alice.. I had to.."
This wasn’t the end. After a few minutes, Cyrus pulled his face back from her neck and traced his one hand to hold her face tenderly. While his left hand inched her closer to his body, his other hand was softly grasping her face to bring it near his lips.
Subconsciously, their eyes flashed down to find the way to the other’s soft lips. Those were the dozen of the feelings that were getting conveyed through the small kisses.
It lasted for exactly minutes, until Alice had kept her face against his forehead. The breath was deeper than ever. Their chest rose to once again sit down at its pace. But the closeness and relief was way more than display.
Their faces were filled with the giant smiles, reaching up to their ears. But it was Cyrus, who increased Alice’s happiness into the starlight.
"I can’t leave you Alice. I-I simply accept you the way you are...my dear witch wife. Living away from you is a death sentence, which I don’t want to ever go through...No.." his words are the sweet petals of roses.
Alice’s happiness didn’t find any corner either. "I’m so grateful for this..."
"And.." Cyrus pulled his head back to gaze into the two beautiful eyes of Alice, finding the entire sea in them. "I love you... my dear wife, Princess of Suzania Kingdom..."
....
At the same time, King Vilas and General Share witnessed the closeness between the Prince and Princess.
For a big, General Shane was alarmed. His eyes directed at King Vilas. But surprisingly, he saw how calm the King was right now. There was no trace of fury as he had expected, "His Highness ..."
"I’m fine. It’s really nice to see a vampire returning after knowing that she is a witch. That’s extraordinary.." King Vilas muttered.
"I do agree with you, King. The way Prince of Gazelle Kingdm left, I had no hope for him to return back."
But their eyes were still not tearing from the couple. Their heart was filled with joy, finding that their princess has someone who will really get her back all the time.
But the same happiness didn’t stay for long with them. One of the other soldiers had arrived near King Vilas and General Shane. "General Shane.. there is a telegraph from the Gazelle Kingdom for you."
Hearing this, General Shane took the large lessafe that came from no one else but King Almen. As he read the content inside,his eyes turned around.
Instantly, he lifted his eyes to find King Vilas staying as usual, "King Vilas, the message is here..."
To this, King Vilas didn’t respond immediately. He stayed silent as those eyes turned sharper than before and replied.
"The time for a fight is near..very near. Get our army ready, the war can break out anytime soon."
