~That Wretched Man~

Elizabeth
✨

I turned on my heel and walked towards the gigantic double doors, his footsteps close behind.

"What have you been working on love?" He cooed ever so sweetly, Mael's presence closer. "Now you wish to ask what I have been up to?" I remind. All the distance just to ask me how my day is now? "I was the one who thought you were missing if I can recall correctly" his dickheadedness was a real turn off. His need to be correct. In control.

Maybe you're just pissed.

"What about this past week? All the nights the Princess woke up in an empty bed. Waiting for her fiancé to come home just to shower and pretend to wake up for the morning. Wonder where you were then..." I trail off, staring ahead of me.

Silence. As if we had never spoken in the first place.

We make it outside before he decides to speak once more. "Where is this place anyways?" He whined like a child being forced to watch their sibling after class. "Mael!!" I hear a faint yell in the distance followed by the pitter patter of feet running.

"Hey Jenna !" He greets her so warmly. "Oh hi Lady Elizabeth" she greeted awkwardly.

Typical.

"How about you two catch up and I'll tell mom you escorted me safely!" I responded in the fakest way possible. "Toodles" my wings spread out behind me, allowing them to lift me from the pavement. I sped off before anyone could rebuttal.

Don't look at them.

Must not bring up any feelings right now. Especially not after what happened with Meliodas. Even though Mael started this, it is definitely frowned upon for a Heir to cheat on their supposed to be spouse.

"Wait, ELIZABETH!" I heard him yelling from afar and instantly I began to panic. "MAEL STOP! Don't follow me I don't want you around me." I demanded, my hand extended in between us ready to use whatever spell I needed to.

"Do you not wish to be my bride any longer?" Mael questioned me. As if I was the one that ruined us.

"I wish for you to leave. I can't speak to you right now. Jenna has longed to see you all day I presume so get to it. We will talk tomorrow." I ordered. In truth I didn't want to speak to him at all.

For what reason? To listen to excuse after excuse..

"You're running off to see that Meliodas aren't you?"

My body stiffened. "Excuse me?" I quizzed. Thought somehow I didn't hear that correctly. "Meliodas... the demon prince that snuck into your room growing up?" He mentioned once more.

"How could you possibly know about that?!" Had Mael been the real stalker from the beginning? "Your mother somehow knew he would try to sway you into loving him.. I didn't think it would actually be true."

Still didn't explain how he KNOWS something like that. "Yes. Yes I'm going to go see MELIODAS. Just like you've been seeing JENNA these past few weeks." I mentioned before turning back around and flying off as fast as I could back to him.

Meliodas

I could hear my name being called miles away from here. I'm sure the others could hear as well so I jumped to my feet and let my darkness lead me straight towards the sound.
