Eight Child lost for a man 26

Chapter

Alaric finally realized that my illness was beyond cure

He remained silent, and the air was heavy with suffocating stillness

A terminal illness? No cure? Who dares-” 

He suddenly erupted, like a vengeful demon, drawing his sword and charging at the physicians

You bunch of charlatans! Charlatans! Who do you say will die, huh?! Who?! My Sera will live for a hundred years! She cannot be dying so soon! I’ll cut out your tongues! I’ll have you all executed!” 

He caused a scene at my bedside, his screams deafening

Alaric.” 

I opened my eyes and grabbed his cloak, his sword clattering to the floor

He responded with urgency, I’m here, Sera, I’m here. Is something wrong? Are you in pain?” 

He reached out to me, his face filled with concern and sorrow

Don’t touch me.I spoke softly, with no emotion. After all, you love Vivienne, the one you promised to love. Your kindness is meant for her, not for 

me.” 

Alaric’s pupils trembled violently. He clutched his head and let out a heartbreaking, anguished cry, one after another, filled with remorse and regret

embled 

It seemed like he was reminiscing on all the ways he had wronged me

Tears as big as raindrops dripped down his face

And then, he ran

The coward, he couldn’t even bear to look at me

Alaric disappeared for three days

When he returned, his eyes were swollen, and his face unshaven. He kneeled by my bed

He begged for my forgiveness, swearing that he loved me, truly loved me

I almost vomited

It’s my fault, Sera. I thought we still had time.” 

Time for what? More cruelty

I couldn’t be bothered to argue with him, so I just quietly listened

Wat all all

all wall with all pull Avg

How could I wait until I’m about to lose you to admit that I can’t live without you? I held onto my guilt for other women, and relied on you always accommodating me, hurting you over and over. It’s all my fault. Let me make it up to you. Please, Sera, let me right my wrongs.” 

I turned 

my back on him and fell asleep

When I woke up, he was still kneeling

This dragged on for a few more days, and people came to advise him: Your Majesty, spare yourselfthe realm needs you.” 

Love? Ha

He was only moved by his own feelings

I thought about it and realized I had to make him suffer more. It was too easy to just let him kneel like this

I wanted to make him laugh and cry, feel pain and exhaustion, give him hope and then snatch it away

When I die, he will not be allowed to die peacefully

I said to Alaric, Get up.” 

His eyes lit up

Chapter

On the third day, a swing covered in wisteria flowers stood in my courtyard

I sat on it

Alaric chattered 

basking in the 

sun, feeling strangely at peace

He talked about the days wh 

I had first entered the palace, how shy I had been

Once, after an afternoon 

nap

I stumbled out, my hair unkempt, sitting on the swing, letting it sway

Suddenly, Alaric had appeared, and into 

my rush to get away, I’d forgotten to put on my shoes and ended up covered in mud as I ran to the palace

Later, he had personally washed the dirt

Why feet

He said he had never seen a girl so full of life

I smiled faintly

Even the most lively person will be worn 

down by love. Don’t

t you think?” 

Alaric fell silent

I stood up and waved my hand at him, speaking flatly, Take it down. It’s annoying to look at.”
