Zeldris x Reader: Yearning

Ch. 15 Can't be?

(Y/n)'s POV

The peaceful days that I thought would last forever came to an end when a tragedy occurred.

The sun was shining brightly as I sat alone in the garden, sipping my tea. The flowers around me bloomed in vibrant colors, and I felt at peace. But that peace shattered in an instant.

Suddenly, a gust of wind whipped through the garden, and I looked up to see four figures appear before me. They wore shining armor and had an otherworldly presence that made my heart race. I recognized them instantly: the four archangels—Ludiciel, Sariel, Tarmiel, and Mael.

"(Y/n)," Ludiciel spoke, his voice deep and commanding. "We need to talk."

I stood up, my heart pounding. "What do you want?" I asked, trying to keep my voice steady.

Sariel stepped forward, his eyes piercing. "You are the Oracle blessed by the goddesses. You possess power that no one can match. But you are in grave danger."

"What do you mean?" I asked, feeling a knot of fear tightening in my stomach.

Tarmiel crossed his arms, looking serious. "Your connection to Zeldris, the demon prince, is forbidden. The Oracle and the demon clan cannot be together. It threatens the balance of our world."

Mael, the kindest of the four, added, "We do not wish to harm you, but we must protect the realm. You must come with us."

"No!" I protested, stepping back. "I won't leave Zeldris! He's my love, and I won't let anyone come between us."

Ludiciel's gaze hardened. "You do not understand the consequences of your choice. If you stay with him, it could lead to disaster for both of you."

I could feel my heart racing. "I won't let you take me!" I shouted, but before I could react, the archangels moved in unison, surrounding me in a blinding light.

In an instant, I was lifted off the ground, trapped in a magical barrier. Panic surged through me as I realized they were serious. They were going to take me away from Zeldris, away from everything I loved.

"Let me go!" I cried, struggling against the barrier. But it was no use. The power of the archangels was too strong.

As they began to transport me away, I thought of Zeldris. I could only hope he would come for me, that he would fight for our love. No matter what the archangels said, I knew in my heart that our bond was worth fighting for.

The world around me faded into a blur as I was whisked away, my heart heavy with fear and determination. I would not give up. I would find a way back to Zeldris, no matter the cost. 

Zeldris POV

The castle felt unusually quiet as I paced back and forth in the grand hall, my heart racing with worry. The celebration had ended abruptly when I realized (Y/n) was missing. I had thought she was simply wandering the gardens, enjoying the beauty of the day, but as the minutes turned into hours, dread settled into my gut like a heavy stone.

"Zeldris, you need to calm down," Meliodas said, his tone trying to be reassuring, though I could see the concern mirrored in his eyes. "She's probably just lost track of time."

"No," I snapped, my voice sharper than I intended. "Something is wrong. I can feel it." The bond we shared was strong, and it whispered to me that she was in danger. I had always been protective of (Y/n), but this felt different. It felt urgent.

I could hear the distant chatter of the guards outside, and I strode toward the castle doors, my mind racing. I needed to find her. I needed to know she was safe. The thought of anything happening to her sent a surge of anger through me. I would not allow anyone to take her from me.
