SAVE ME

Damien stared at Gezelle”Marriage?”

“Yes, or have you forgotten so suddenly?”

A knock on his door interrupted them.

“Who is it?”Damien asked.

“It’s me , my lord. The lady Laura is here to see you”Rosco said.

Damien looked from Gezelle back to the door”Let her in”

Rosco opened the door as Laura walked in.

Laura bowed before Damien”My lord, the task which you have set me upon is now complete”

Laura stretched out a wrapped gift towards him which contained the love potion.

“I have no need for it anymore”

Laura looked up at Damien in shock”What?”

“You can take it and go”

“B.. but my lord-”

“Don’t worry, your favor still stands. I’m not that petty”

Laura bowed her head”Then, I’ll be taking my leave”

When Laura got outside the realm, she headed to the vampire’s realm.

“Did the plan work?”She asked Faren.

Faren smiled”Yes. But how did you know it was going to work?”

Laura shrugged”Why aren’t you celebrating it though. You just won against the great demon lord”

Faren sat on his throne”It doesn’t feel like a win yet”

“Suite yourself. I’m out of here”Laura turned around to walk away when Faren said.

“You and I… we make a pretty good team, don’t we?”

“What are you getting at?”

“I would like to repay you one of these days and would like us to keep working together, what do you say?”

Laura turned around to slightly face Faren”Sorry but I work alone”

She then turned around and walked away.

When she got back to the Witches’ realm, Salando and Cruella approached her with a mop bucket.

Laura looked from the bucket back to them”What is this?”

“Ms. Agatha gave you back your powers because the demon lord had requested so but your punishment still continues” Cruella said throwing the mop bucket towards her.

“You’ve got to be kidding me”Laura cursed angrily.

“No we aren’t so get to work. More duties await you in the morning”Salando said before turning around and walking away with Cruella.

Laura grunted before getting to work.

The following morning at the Angel’s realm, Alexa hurriedly got up from her bed and headed towards the werewolves realm to see Warren.

“I’m sorry but you can’t see him”Jaden said blocking Alexa at the entrance.

“Why?”

“He’s on a leash”

Alexa wrinkled her brow in confusion”Since when?”

“It should be up to four days now if I’m not mistaken. He’s on a leash for two weeks”

Four days. Alexa thought. But he came to see me yesterday. No way…. Did Warren come to see me yesterday despite being on a leash?

Alexa sighed. How was she going to get in now?

Just then, she saw Mikasa and Eren coming outside.

“Mikasa! Eren!” She called out to them.

Eren’s face brightened up”Alexa”

She dissolved them both in a hug and whispered in their ears”Please, help me”

She refrained from them and turned towards Jaden”Can I go in now? I came to see Eren ams Mikasa”

Jaden sighed”Alexa, if this is some type of scheme-”

“It’s not a scheme, I promise you”Eren said taking Alexa’s hand”She’s my responsibility. If she does anything wrong, feel free to punish me”

Jaden nodded his head as he turned to Alexa”You may go in”

When they were out of Jaden’s sight, Alexa hit Eren”Why did you say that”

“Say what?”

” ‘She’s my responsibility’ seriously? I came to see Warren and it’s going to land you both in trouble”

Eren shrugged his shoulders”So what? Friends can do that much for eachother” he turned towards Mikasa “Isn’t that right?”

Mikasa nodded his head”Yes”

Alexa looked from Mikasa to Eren as she dissolved them in a hug once more.

She refrained from them as she patted their heads.”You two have sure grown up alot”

Suddenly feeling shy, Eren removed her hands from his head”I’ve told you to stop treating us like dogs”

Alexa giggled”But I can’t help it”

Anglassia who was on her way outside tbe realm saw Alexa smiling with the guys  and balled her fist.

“Why does everyone like her? Just why! I wish you were gone, Alexa”Anglassia angrily went to the sword room to practice and vent out her anger.

Meanwhile after mindless tossing and turning, Warren stood up from his bed and knocked on his door”I know I’m on a leash but at least feed me, I’m hungry”

“Do you like red meat?”a voice asked from the window behind him making him to turn around.

“A.. Alexa? what are you doing here?”

“First help me up. I think I’m about to fall”

Warren rushed towards the window and pulled her up.

“Why didn’t you just fly in?”

Alexa shrugged”The process is what’s really important and I thought you might forgive me after I climb up a 10 story building for you”she raised up the black nylon in her hand”Meat?”

“Sure”

They both sat down on the bed as they devoured the meat.

“It’s delicious”Warren gasped

“I know”

They stuffed their mouth with food and when they were done, Alexa looked down at her hand”I’m sorry”

“For what?”

She looked up at Warren”For everything.”

“I would never take Damien’s side over yours but given the fact that he was under a love potion spell, I thought he would never lie or fake his emotions. That’s why I was so sure that he wasn’t the one who hurt Celine”

“But it turns out that I really didn’t know anything. It turns out that it was all a lie and he was never really under the spell at all” Alexa sniffed her nose”I feel so stupid”

Warren placed his hand over Alexa’s”Then I should apologize too”

“For what?”

“I knew that the love potion didn’t work on the demon lord”

“What?”Alexa asked  shocked. Feeling betrayed and hurt, she attempted to free her hand from his grasp but his grip tightened on hers.

“I’m truly sorry”

Alexa suddenly stopped trying to free herself from his grasp.

“Everyone knew” she said softly as tears trickled down her cheeks”Everyone knew I was being played”

“Alexa, I-”

“And do you even know what the worst part is? That now I can’t hate him because…” Alexa sobbed heavily” because I think I like him”

And slowly, Warren let go off Alexa’s hand.
