Bewitch Me [Book 1 & 2, The Witch's Fate]

Chapter Sixty Nine - Sleepless Nights

I couldn't sleep peacefully, I bet everyone's asleep except Minuet. Maybe if I could just sneak up on the guards and escape with him?

I have been pacing about in the hallway which connecting to many other corridors and rooms including Xander's.

My fist clenched at the thought of the so-called Foxy stalking me right now but I shrugged it off as just jealousy.

"Maybe....seeing him before I leave wouldn't be a bad idea?". The thought of peeping into Xander's room hit me hard and since I had nothing doing at the moment I decided to feed my curiosity.

Carefully, I tiptoed in my flip flops and opened the door a little ajar only to see the room was empty.

"Xander?".

"Did he seriously jump out of the window!". I yelped and ran to the edge of the window sill to search for any clue.

Although the landscape was dark I could still tell which is which in the dark night.

I could see a figure standing still not so faraway at the distance so I assumed it to be him.

What could he be doing at this time of the night?

I opened my mouth to call out to him but no words came out anyways. It'd be very foolish of me to scream his name while everyone's sleeping don't you think?

I only observed what he was looking at intensely and saw that it was the garden he had earlier taken me into.

Hmmm.

I don't know if I still have my magic but I'd give it a try.

I sucked in my breath and closed my eyes for a moment only concentrating on the flowers, shrubs and mainly the garden.

Opening my eyes slowly I was thrilled to see that I had teleported to the garden meaning that I still had some magic.

I wanted to rejoice and scream in excitement but I didn't want to scare him yet.

I was about to give him a surprise attack but stopped when I noticed what he had been looking at the entire time.

I just stood behind him silently staring at the cross in his hand and the grave in his front.

I could feel the breeze widely tugging at my hair to leave the danger zone at once and the moon laughing at my stupidity.

"You...you aren't asleep huh?". His voice came out quite tired and weak which must explain why he didn't shout at me or something.

How did he-

Of course he sensed my magic...

In this kind of situation, words are nothing but useless but actions are something more useful.

"Don't tell me you've been doing the same all the while I knew you Xander". My voice came out as a soft whisper as I wrapped my arms around his waist from behind.

He didn't say anything other than look up into the dazing skylight.

"You've been having sleepless nights?". I asked in a whisper, earning a muffled yes from him.

"I'm sure they're proud of you, My Lord". I cooed.

"Hmm, but are you proud of me?". He asked.

My face went red and I immediately let go when he turned at me.

"W-well, wasn't it obvious the whole time?". I nervously said.

"I almost killed you and I'm about to do the same to Alastair". He stated in a cold tone.

"E-everything i-isn't based on blood and deaths Xander, there has to be a deal or s-something I could do!".

He turned his face away from me and walked away without answering.

"Hey! Don't ignore me!".

"I could never ignore you My Queen.. I just think we need a distance that's all". He said with a sincere smile.

"Please just let him go this once...you would never get to see him again I promise!". I pleaded.

"What would you have done if you were in my condition?". He inquired.

"Probably would've waved a wand over his head for punishment?". He added with a cold laugh.

"I...".

"You do realize he killed his family too". He revealed. "He's the only survivor".

"W-what?".

"With his bare hands".

"O-oh".

"Unluckily for my parents, they happened to be hosting a sort of show for his and they were his first victims. I don't know why it hurts so much but seeing the freak that killed my parents alive and healthy over all these years makes...makes me just wanna...".

"Hey, I've got your back. I know my race is against you probably because you enslave our kinds for our careless magical ways but I'm going to support you in this".

He was taken back by my statement.

"Would you be My Prince if that happens?". I asked and interlocked our fingers, leaning my head against his with a sad smile.

He gave me a surprised smile and sighed deeply. "Fine, I don't know how you always use your charm on this one".

"I'd let him go just on one condition-".

"Whatever it is My Prince...I just want to say....thank you!". I pressed my lips against his shortly but he returned the kiss making us to eventually deepen it into a brief passionate one.
