"Miss me" he said grinning, walking towards me, jumping over Giant body easily and bowing to me dramatically, I laughed not believing my eyes any more. He is really here, "Who is he?" Alex asked confused but he was alert, his sword in his hand, ignoring his question I ran towards the person standing in front of me hugging him tightly.
"I missed you" I murmured smiling, my heart was swelling with happiness, my vision blurred due to the tears, I tried holding them back but it was impossible. In this condition, my emotions are not in control. When he heard me sniffing, he broke the hug and looked at me concern "Well, you don't have to miss me that much, I am here now" he said smiling, wiping few tears which escaped from my eyes. I tried to smile back.
"Can I know what just happened here?" Alex asked standing beside and looking at Caleb baffled, Caleb smiled his cocky smile "I saved your asses that's what happened" .
I rolled my eyes but smile nonetheless, I never thought I will meet him here, my best friend, my solace, he is here with me and now I can fight any battle when he is by my side.
"You are being modest now, but who are you?" I can detect sarcasm in Alex voice to which I snicker, they both have similar personality but Caleb is more of a goof ball. "I am?" Caleb said pointing his finger to his chest "I am Caleb Danvers, Prince of Danvers Kingdom" he stated proudly to which Alex raised his eye brow "Oh, so you are the lady man" he mused folding his arms in front of his chest. "Well if you mean popular in ladies then yes, I am" he smirked and looked at me "You don't look well" he asked, looking surprised, I grimace, I don't feel well, my eyes are red from lack of sleep and crying I have been doing lately and I am swaying from time to time due to the weakness I am feeling. "I am fine, just a little fever" I said giving him fake smile to which he scoffed seeing right through it "I know you more than you know yourself, tell me now what is happening?" he asked sternly, I looked at Alex but he was walking to the Giant to see if he is conscious or not. He pinned me with his stare making me sigh
"Rose left me" I said finally starting from the root of the problem, he raised his eye brow telling me to continue "The spell she absorbed from the Midnight is spreading in my body because Rose is not here to stop it" I said biting my lower lip to stop the turmoil of emotion, I have to tell him the real deal.
"And?" he prompted
"And I am dying" I responded closing my eyes not wanting to see his reaction, he inhaled sharply, after some time he put his hand on my shoulders "There must be a cure, right?" he asked, his voice hopeful for me, I opened my eyes and nodded my head "Yes, its in Baruna mountains" I said to which he sighed in relief "Then, lets go, we shall find it" his enthusiasm coming back, I chuckled trying to believe in his positively. "Guys, we should find others" Alex said in loud voice, I nodded and we started walking towards the same direction from where we came. "Who is he by the way?" Caleb asked indicating with his eyes towards Alex who was walking in front of us.
"He is Alexander, Chase's brother" I replied looking at my surroundings, suddenly Caleb stopped in his track stopping me as well, I raised my eyebrow in confusion, "You are friend with the enemy" he said loudly, I rolled my eyes in annoyance "He is my friend, he is helping me" I said and tried to walk around him to catch up with Alex but Caleb stopped me again "Still an enemy" he said in 'duh' tone, I huffed, "Are you guys coming?" Alex yelled from a few distance away, I nodded, "We will talk about it later" with that I dismissed the conversation and followed Alex to the place where our carriages were, There was mess everywhere, our carriages were broken, some of our soldiers were injured, we walked to them "Where is Chase?" Alex asked to one of the soldier, he was shaking in fear, blood running from his forehead, he pointed his shaky finger towards the forest, We can heard growling from that direction. Alex started running towards the sound, I quickly followed him, Caleb on my toe "Did you came alone?" I asked in curiosity, how did he found me here, Caleb laughed "Nope"
