Chapter Thirty-Seven : Come Back

Laurance and Elias were sitting on the roof of the church, Laurance holding a bow and arrow and Elias just sitting there. Prior to this, Laurance had explained the plan.

Elias was still very confused as to how Laurance was able to talk to Y/N.

He was also disappointed that Y/N didn't appear in his dreams.

The church they were on top of had a very convenient mosaic window at the top of the church. It was dome shaped and since the wedding was taking place later in the day, it hid them well.

The doors were open, allowing them to hear what was going on.

Laurance readied his bow, aiming at Mir's heart. He breathed out heavily, close to letting the string go. There was the priest who spoke first, before he was interrupted by Eren.

"Priest Willow, please stop," Laurance could only see Eren’s expressions, Elias was the one in charge of watching Mir. Eren’s expression could only be described as a disappointed one that became hard as soon as he made eye contact with Mir.

“Eren.. What’s wrong..?” As Mir asked that, Eren looked sadly around the now quiet room that still had guests that were waiting to see the wedding. The guests were all murmuring quietly.

“To put it simply, you're what's wrong. I know you're not Y/N.. whether you're possessing her or you're a shifter.. you're not her..” Laurance’s eyes widen as do Elias’ as they glance at each other, Laurance’s arm relaxing in a state of shock. How could Eren have known. Eren looked at her sadly, his fists clenched as he looked away, at his guards.

“Oh he’s angry..” Elias backs away from the window a bit , he was talking about Mir. “What do you mean?” Laurance had completely forgotten about him having to assassinate Mir, the situation Mir was in was enough to distract him.

Laurance shakes his head quickly, drawing the bow again, just in time to see Mir getting handled by the guards. They stepped out with Mir who was struggling, but the thing is.. Laurance completely missed his chance.

Was he hesitant because Mir was using Y/N's physical form..? He didn't know, but he was shaken out of his thoughts by Elias, "Laurance, we have to follow them.." he suggested while gathering their things.

"Elias, if we do that, they'll catch us. Let me go. You head back to the hotel alright?" He grabs what he needs, taking the bow with him as he slides down the ladder. Leaving a speechless Elias who learned not to argue with the decisions of the older male.

While Elias was on his way to the hotel, Laurance was busy trailing the guards, Mir, and King Eren. Luckily for him, there was most definitely a lot of things to hide behind as he trailed the small group.

It looked as if Mir had given up fighting,his head was down, Eren walking at his side. It didn’t take them too long to get to the dungeon, they didn't throw him in the cell however, they laid him down on the ground. Most likely since he looks like Y/N. Laurance stood there, thinking he did a good job at staying behind secretly.

That was, until one of the guards turned around as Laurance made a sound while trying to get into a more comfortable standing position.

Shit-

His eyes widened as the guards took defensive stances, pushing the king behind them. The king only stared at Laurance in confusion. Laurance dropped his sword and put his hands up, "Wait, before you do anything, I need to talk to Mir.."

The guards glanced back at the king, as if asking him what to do.

"Go on, relax, I want to hear what he has to say. How do you even know who Mir is?"

Laurance lets out a small sigh of relief as the guards put their weapons down. He slowly put his hands down and stepped back from his sword. "I know him because I know Y/N aswell." He begins to explain how he knows her in as little detail as he could. Of course, he left out the part about him loving her and all the stuff that happened between them.

"I see.. and you know how to get her back.. what do you need to do..?" The king lifted his head a bit, showing the confidence he had before.

"Yes.. but why do you trust me? I could easily be lying." He points out, still not having moved from his spot near the wall.

"Well, no one knows that much about Y/N, so either you're a dedicated stalker.. or you actually knew her."

"Right.. now, may I come through and do what I need to do to get her back..?"

Eren, pressed his lips into a thin line, thinking quickly before answering, "Alright, guards, make way for him.."

The guards step to the side and Laurance walks into the cell, Mir was laying on the ground. His once beautiful wedding gown now dirtied by the unkempt stone floor.

Laurance kneels down, carefully searching for any sort of pockets, he could feel the eyes of Eren and his guards. It was as if they were burning holes into the back of his head, that was how intense the stares felt.

He finally found a pocket, feeling around until he felt a cold glass vial. "You know, it's not polite to touch a lady without consent."

The voice shocked Laurance, sure it was Y/N's but it sounded sinister. Not at all like the sweet but snarky girl he knew.

"Mir.."

"Oh! That's right Laurance!" Mir sits up, his face not to far from Laurance's.

"It's over for you," he clenches the vial.

"How could you kill me, looking like this. You don't have the guts." Mir brushes him off, calling his bluff. However Laurance wasn't bluffing.

"You know," he grabs a spare dagger he had grabbed before they left, grabbing Mir's cold hand. He almost recoiled, since this cold wasn't usual what he felt. He missed the warmth Y/N naturally had. "If I remember anything about poison, it's works fast when ingested, but when directly introduced to the bloodstream,"

TW: Mentions of blood, death
(Please proceed with caution)

He pulls Mir closer, making a small cut on his neck. Mir could only struggle, since this cell was made with a spell that could suppress any abilities. He knew since Eren asked for it and he made it for the young boy. Without those abilities, he couldn't do anything but kick and try to bite Laurance.

"When directly introduced to the bloodstream, it kills you almost immediately." He opens the vial, and pours the poison onto the opens wound.

Red marks would likely appear on Laurance's skin later. Mir starts breathing heavily as Laurance lets him go. He holds his neck which was starting to bleed out more. "How- the poison-?"

"I have my sources, but that was for Y/N. You should've stayed dead when you had the chance.." Laurance stands up, looking down in disgust at Mir who was writhing before he stopped moving altogether.

He glances at Eren who was looking at Y/N body in horror. "Is he.. actually dead this time..?"

"We'll find out soon.. if Y/N comes back, then he's truly dead.."

Laurance inhales deeply, minutes went by as they stood in silence, waiting for Y/N to come back.

"No.." he falls to his knees as the body didn't move. "Y/N please," he shakes the body. "Please come back.."
