Chapter 177

CHAPTER 184: WORDS OF RELIEF

Maya was in shock, she couldn’t believe what Fay was telling her and if he hadn’t been a fairy incapable of lying; she would have thought it was all a lie he had invented to separate her from Cassian. She dropped the daggers with which she had threatened Fay, he took advantage of the moment of confusion to escape.

He hadn’t wanted to tell the truth and he knew he would have problems with the queen for having revealed who he really was, but he was forced to do so. Maya seemed to be truly in love with her human lover and with each passing day she showed less intentions of returning to the land of the fairies, that was why he had begun to intervene, he wanted her to stay away from him, otherwise she would end up suffering a slow and tortuous death for not having complied with the queen’s orders to take care of Maya.

Fay scratched his head, he did not understand why the queen had allowed him to leave the land of the Fairies even knowing that Maya desperately wanted to escape.

-I do not understand what the queen was thinking, if she is so valuable why did she allow her to leave.

Fay went out to the garden, he went to a large tree with wide leaves, since he had arrived at the palace he had been using it to communicate with the land of the fairies, he touched the trunk of the tree, instantly a leaf fell from the tree, he caught it before it fell to the ground; on the leaf there was a written message, which was short and precise.

“Return immediately to the land of fairies”

Fay sighed heavily, raised his gaze to the sky and wondered what was happening in the land of fairies. He was heading to look for Maya’s lover when he met him in the hallway.

-I was just going to look for you.

Cassian did not hide his displeasure when he saw him.

-What does he want?

-I heard that the elf princess has already awakened from her long sleep.

-That’s right.

-I must return to my kingdom and I need to know if you will accept an alliance or not.

-Are you leaving already? What will happen to Maya?

-She will return with me, that is her place now

. -She cannot leave.

-Listen to me humans, Maya cannot stay with you, she will never do so, the queen would never allow it.

-I do not care if she allows it or not, I will not let her take away the woman I love from me.

Fay sighed heavily, apparently the human lover was just as stubborn as she was, he turned around and before leaving he told her I will look for you tomorrow to get my answer, you have until tomorrow to think about what they will do, just remember that by refusing to have an alliance with my kingdom, they would be declaring themselves as our enemies.

After Fay left, Cassian went to see Alessandro, having an alliance with the fairies was a decision that he could not make alone, it was something that Alessandro and Abril had to decide.

That time he knocked on the door, immediately he heard Alessandro’s voice allowing him to enter.

-Cassian, you arrive at a good time, I was just thinking of going to look for you.

Abril greeted him with a smile.

-Hello Cassian, I’m glad to see you.

-When you find out why I came, you won’t think the same.

-What’s wrong Cassian?

Alessando asked a little worried since his brother’s face was serious.

-Fay has found out that April has woken up and demanded an answer, she wants to know if we accept an alliance with them or if we will be their enemies.

Alessandro frowned, April had just woken up after almost dying from facing an army of monsters and now an arrogant Fairy wanted her to go through the same thing again. Alessandro felt his blood boil, the mere idea of ​​April going through a situation similar to the previous one again infuriated him.

-There will be no alliance, I will not allow April to be in danger again and if that makes us enemies so be it.

April got up from the sofa she was sitting on, put her hand on Alessandro’s arm to calm him down and said.

-Calm down Lessan

-How can I calm down if that arrogant fairy wants to put you in danger again.

-I understand how you feel, but I also understand them, they are facing an enemy they cannot fight, you should know better than anyone how that feels.

-Yes but……

-Besides it is something we owe to Maya, she has helped us a lot April turned to Cassian, I know how much you love Maya and I also know what you have suffered from being away from her, because I went through something similar when I had to be away from Lessan, so I want to help you just as you have helped us, tell Fay that we accept the alliance, but we have a few conditions.

Alessandro replied to April’s words.

-Aby you can’t…

-It’s my decision Lessan, they are my dear friends and I want to help them.

-Cassian we are going to get Maya back, I will make sure to give her her freedom back, I don’t think the queen will refuse to free her if I ask her since the help they will receive will be very great.

-Do you really think to do that?

-Of course.

April approached Cassian, took his hand and said.

- It was partly my fault that you had to separate, now I want to remedy that.

Cassian began to cry, he had promised Maya that he would get her to regain her freedom, but in reality he had no idea how he would do it, that’s why April’s words were like a breath of air, a relief that gave him back his breath.

- Thank you very much April, thank you very much.

Cassian repeated those words over and over again, while tears of relief and happiness ran down his cheeks. Alessandro wanted to reply, but he couldn’t do it when he saw his brother’s tearful face, April had given him back the hope of recovering the woman he loved and he didn’t have the heart to take it away from her.
