Chapter 85
Angel's Realm
"Eris," Melecient called which cause him to look at her.
"Why are you here?" Eris asked and she just ignored him instead she walk where the wines are and serve herself a glass of red wine that we called infinity.
Since that day the she had encountered with my daughter, Lissana, in the human realm I still can't forgive her on what she had done.
FLASHBACK
A loud thunder uproars the sky. Stormy clouds roll in, blocking the bright sun. With no warning, total darkness prevailed as clouds thickened and it struck the sky as the wind arose to push the still waters to choppy, which morphed into mountains of angry waves. Shadows swallow the last rays of light, and thunder crackles through the air. Rain begins to pour furiously, drowning any sight of certainty. The waves grew so large that it dwarfed the vessel, riding up and down the mighty swelling sea like a child's toy. The air was thick with a briny mist, the deck awash with salty waves. It was a sunny day and yet it was fast of the weather to be like this, as far as Hades concern he had to check the weather before they have to do this, and the weather today supposed to be a sunny day. The wind that had pushed against the boat, not playfully but with gathering strength, saw no reason to dwindle. The air became thick with salt, carried by a gale that could only sing a single note. It was a sea storm promising nothing but hardship and tale of recovery for anyone that made it out with their skin.
Total darkness prevailed as the dismal clouds overcast the cartilaginous sky and the wind arose, causing waves to tower over their helpless boat. They were caught in a violent storm. Seagulls soared freely over the sky without a care in the world.
Lissana grabs the hand of Hades with fear in her eyes and Hades holds her hand reassuring her that everything is fine.
'I'm here," he said and grips her small hand. It was cold, and he senses fear in her eyes.
The ring on her finger changes its color to black, sensing danger will come.
END OF FLASHBACK
And she is at it again. Messing with the memories of that poor child. He had struggled in his past life and even today at the present and even in hell he is still struggling. Messing with his life and maybe from that past life, Melecient, is already messing with him. But if I took a step just to help him his fate will change forever. I already saw what is coming to him and it was beautiful. It will be his treasure until the end there will be happiness and I am sure of it. I can see it in his heart but regards to that there will be pain and that will be his first step. And I just hope that he can hold in it and will not flow to his emotions. I hope he will go strong through his way and I wish he will find strength until the very end.
That girl is the key to his paradise. But even though I can see the unrequited love behind her eyes and the carve in her heart. It was in her past and now they are both standing next to each other without a single memory but felt the same familiarity every time their eyes met or every time their skin touch.
This two will walk into a tough battle of but together they will surpass it in the name of love. Love is the strongest power the a man can have and it will be an eternity. Unlike this woman that is now in front of me. She lacks of those word. There is no love in her vocabulary and I wonder why she is still here. I don;t know but she belongs to another place. I am not here to judge her standings but she had been change a lot since then.
Melecient's heels clack in the floor every time she took a step. She lift her glass as if tossing it in the air and there was a thin smile that curves her lips. I don't know if I have to be guarded by that but I choose to calm myself down. I should not be intimidated by her.
I look at the angels who is busy scribbling in their scroll and speak. "What are you up to now, Melecient?" I asked and I just heard her snorted.
"Finally, I have your attention my dear. My smile works on you, huh," she mocked.
"Whatever it is I hope you are thinking it twice or even thrice. I don't plan in stopping you whatever you plan now in your head but I just want to tell you this, you are not like this before Mele, you know yourself better than I do. I just hope you will find it sooner," I said and sigh.
Silence took over us and just the wind was howling between us. I don't feel any rage in her presence as to what I have said and I expected but she was calm and in deep thought. I don't want to deny but she is not the Mele that I used to know before but I was the one who unlock the devil inside of her. I should be the one who should be blame.
"I know myself, Eris. Maybe for now I am lost and just searching the right path until I can go home," she said and with that last words she vanished herself together with the wind.
"Home," I repeat what she had said and felt that it was the deepest word for me. It has the strongest emotion and meaning to a person. Having a home means paradise.
It was not my intention to hurt her. I was in love to a mortal even though I am a god. twas against of all the rules and I and Melecient are arranged to be married as the strongest gods. But I believe that marriage is a sacred love and it should have a mutual feelings. I just don;t feel the same as her.
"I'm sorry."
