Myra's POV ( you read it correct)

400 years......

I have been on this earth for 400 years but in that span of time, there might not be a single second that I didn't miss this guy in front of me.

Maximilian D'Cortez.....my first and last love. He surely got his good looks from his French parents. Sleek black hair, squared jaw, even his body language is enough to make any girl fall over him head over heels.

But that was not the main reason why I loved him. It was his deep blue eyes and his pure heart.

I don't know how...when....when our simple love turned into hate. But heart is heart. Even though he was a threat to my people, I was madly in love with him.

All these years I tried to forget him, tried to forgive him for what he has done but I can't. I can't forgive him.

And right now, the last person whom I want to see is standing just before my eyes.

As soon as my eyes landed on him, I was filled with enrage, fear, hate, and....love too. I wanted to shout at him, scream at him, hug him but instead...

"Max....."Slipped from my mouth, "What are you doing here, Maximilian????"

"I just....." he tried to say but nothing came out form his mouth.

"You are a demon too aren't you???" Sheena asked who was standing right beside me. "And you and Myra..."

I raised my hand to stop her from saying further. She might have got her memories back. But I don't want to her say that we were in any sort of relationship because now there is nothing between us.

I closed the distance between me and Maximilian and repeated my question.

"What are you doing here, Maximilian???"

"Why are you behaving like this??? I am your Max...." he extended his arm to touch my face but I slapped his hand away. He had an expression of hurt and pain in his eyes.

"No, you are not!!! My Max died in the war!! You are Maximilian, a demon who just possesses my Max's body. That's it!!" I screamed at him and no sooner my golden tears started streaming down from my eyes. " This all is because of you. All these innocent girls has to suffer because of you."

"I am really sorry, Myra. I never meant to do that but you need to understand that whatever happened was not what I chose!!" He was breathing heavily. He was also on the verge of crying. His baby blue eyes were now appearing glassy. "I just need a chance Myra...I want to help and fix what I messed up."

"He is right Myra," Nura said from behind," if he had not come to save us, we all might have been dead by now. He protected us and made this place for us to hide. He really need a chance.."

I looked at him with uncertainty. He really did that?? But why is he doing all this? With what intention?

"Whatever done is done, we can't change things, right? We need to focus on how can we close that gate of undead" Ralph said.

"And save Arjun..." Slipped from Sheena's mouth."

"Arjun?? What happened to him?" Ralph asked.

"We will tell you everything but first tell me what happened here." I asked.

"Actually..." Max spoke in his deep voice. Though it's been years, but his voice still gives tingle to my skin. " When the gates opened all the demons which was sent by the other princesses came out with James, that newly sent demon."
