"something wrong..?" he asked titling his head.. She looked up at him her eyes looking Surprised.. He stared at her dumbfounded..

She gently hold his hand and placed his hand on her belly.. He felt something weird in his heart..the baby's leg moving gently caressing her stomach felt on his palm.. He looked and she is smiling.. A small but pretty smile..

" you..

" I always wondered.. Why are not calling me by my name..? "she asked interrupting him..

"huh..?"

" it's just..you can call me athy like every one but why do you always say.. You..or.. Hey..?" she asked back..

" hmm.. I didn't thought about that .." he mumbled and she nodded a yes started walking.. He stood there silently deep in thoughts...

"sia.."

She froze on the spot.. Bathump.. Bathump... Her heart is fluttering.. She wondered how could just a one single word give this many reactions to her body ..?!!

She turned back and he is staring at her.. His eyes gentle than usual.. A little bit.. Raindrop size gentleness

"huh..?" she stared at him her stone face with a surprised eyes

"then.. I will call you sia.." he said and his eyes wided.. She smiled nodding a yes ..

'did she.. Just now.. Smiled.. For me..?!!' lucas thought awestrucked.. Bathump.. Bathump.. His heart felt light.they stared at each other.. No Words exchanged.. No words are needed.. Their relationship is quite strange and they both know that..

They want to get away from each other at the same time, their hearts yearns to stay beside each other.. They started walking again and athy stopped as she felt thirsty.. Lucas teleported the water bottle from palace for her.. That's the least he can do with his magic...

" sia.. If you like this child so much.. You can just have him.. It feels like I am snatching him from you.. You even gave him a name.." lucas said as the water bottle vanished in thin air...

She looked down with a sad face..

" to tell you the truth .. I thought about it.. A corner of my heart.. Really wants to.. But I can't.. No.. I shouldn't.. "she said her voice cracking..

" why shouldn't..? "he asked titling his head..

Athy gulped down her urge to cry and told lucas everything about Anastacius plan she found out...

There was a silence... The rustling sound of trees and howling of breeze which is blowing past them.. She looked up.. Her jewel eyes dull and gloomy.. Her hair fluttering in the wind..

He is mad.. No.. He is furious.. She can feel his mana oozing out of him in a dangerous level and his aura turning more murky.. Like he wanna kill her right now... She felt fear ran down her spine..

"just.. What the fuck he think I am...? A test rat..? " he mumbled His voice low and menacing .. It's full of anger and coldness.. Because of the excess mana the water in the lake beside them raised dangerously high and athy got breatheless from the pressure..

She never thought she would meet someone who shows her how fear feels like..she grabbed his hand with her trembling hands..

"Lu..lucas.." she said her voice almost a whisper..she leaned her head on his chest and she can feel his heart pounding and mana seeping out in dangerously high level..
