46. Enough Hans
Aurora looked at her sharply, wanting to eat the prey before her. Her hand was still strangling Claudia. She could no longer stand the woman who had dared to take advantage of Ethan's defunct to pursue her rotten purpose.
"You won't be able to kill me," Claudia said as she tried to let go of Aurora's hand that kept strangling her.
"You think I can't finish off a rotten woman like you? The woman who has killed her own friend deserves to die at my hands!" said Aurora in a very pressing tone.
Aurora grinned as she looked at Claudia's already flushed face. She tightened her strangulation even more so that the woman could barely breathe.
"Let her go!" shouted someone who saw the incident.
"No. This rotten woman deserves to die!" said Aurora.
The person directly approached Aurora and removed her hand from Claudia's neck. After that, the person saw the state of the woman who was almost killed by Aurora, who could no longer control her emotions.
"Are you crazy, Aurora? What if she dies? Why are you just like your friend?!" asked the person, none other than Hans, who looked upset with Aurora's actions.
"Why are you so stupid, Hans?! She is a snake woman who wants to destroy you and your friends including, Igor! Can't you see all that?!" replied Aurora angrily.
"That snake woman is you! Ever since your arrival at this castle everything has not been good. Even you are the one who caused Ethan to be killed by the enemy!" said Hans.
Aurora was speechless when she heard the words Hans threw at her. She recalled the incident at that time that caused Ethan to die. She is guilty and cannot be forgiven by Hans, Ethan's brother.
"Then you want her to die too?" asked someone who had heard all Hans say to Aurora.
The person continued walking until she was beside Aurora. She stared intently at Hans, who was in front of her, and then she saw Claudia smiling because she had made a commotion inside the castle.
"Don't interfere, Odelia! You and Aurora are the same. You are both women who bring bad luck to those who are near you!"
"Enough, Hans! You've gone crazy! You don't have the right to say all that!" said Odelia, who was already annoyed by the man in front of her.
Aurora just listened to everything Hans said about her. She didn't think she was a bearer of bad luck if the man could tell so easily.
Hans and Odelia argue again. No one could stop them, including Aurora. Although Claudia can prevent all of that, there is no desire to stop the argument between Odelia and Hans.
"Don't you know who, Aurora? So why don't you ask Igor to let her go?" Odelia asked Hans, who continued to defend Claudia.
"Odelia, enough! I don't think we can talk to a man who a snake woman like her has eaten," Aurora continued while smiling at Claudia, smiling with satisfaction.
After saying that, Aurora took Odelia by the hand and took her friend away from Hans and Claudia. She kept walking until they were far away from the people who annoyed and disappointed her.
"Come to my room!" Odelia said to Aurora.
Aurora nodded and walked towards Odelia's room, far from her current position. They went into the room, and Aurora sat on the sofa. Meanwhile, Odelia took two cans of drinks from a small cooler in her room.
"This is outrageous! Why, Hans can be affected by that snake woman!" grumbled Aurora, who couldn't get rid of the annoyance in her mind now.
"I also don't understand what that woman has done to Hans. I can't see the evil aura or the things that make Hans look like a doll in her hand, Claudia," Odelia continued as she handed Aurora a can of drink and sat down next to her.
Aurora took Odelia's can of drink. She opened it and drank it while thinking about what had happened. However, her heart felt sad because she remembered Hans blaming her for Ethan's death.
"What if I die? Can bring him back to life?" muttered Aurora, and Odelia heard it.
"You don't have to think about it anymore. No one can determine the life and death of a person. Including me and you," Odelia replied.
The two of them were silent in the room, busy with their respective thoughts. Aurora came to her senses and looked to the side.
"Odelia, do you like it, Hans?" asked Aurora to her friend.
A few seconds passed, but Odelia didn't answer the question she had just asked. Aurora held Odelia's hand, and her friend immediately looked at her.
"What's wrong?" asked Odelia.
"Do you like it, Hans?" replied Aurora with the same question.
"I don't know."
"Why? Have you never felt in love for more than a thousand years of your life?"
Aurora saw Odelia chuckle after listening to her questions. She did not know whether, for a thousand years after her death, the friend had never felt that she was in love.
"Is there anything wrong with my question?" Aurora asked Odelia again, and her laughter stopped.
"What do you think I'm this? Even though I'm a witch, I've also felt something like falling in love. However, I...," replied Odelia, who did not continue her sentence and made Aurora curious.
"What am I?"
Aurora saw Odelia fall silent again, and it wasn't long before the woman beside her let out a deep sigh. She saw Odelia get up and walk towards the balcony.
She got up and followed Odelia, who walked to the balcony. Now, they were standing there looking at the garden behind the castle. Aurora was still waiting for her friend's answer because she was curious about it.
"I've been in love with the same man several times from one life to another. However, there is always something that makes him go other than death."
"You mean? Are there any other forces that are getting in the way of your love story?"
