The Fairy Queen\u2019s Wish\u00a0<\/p>\n
Claim\u00a0<\/p>\n
Cassian\u2019s face darkened. He felt hurt; he hadn\u2019t stopped thinking about her for a single moment\u00a0<\/p>\n
since they had parted, but it seemed she had forgotten about him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDid you forget me in the short time we weren\u2019t together?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHas it been a short time for you? Lucky you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you mean by that?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAs you know, time passes differently in the fairy realm. What has been a short time for you has\u00a0<\/p>\n
been years for me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you mean?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter you all left, the queen took away the medallion the elves had given me. For a long time, I waited for you to come look for me. I knew I couldn\u2019t leave with you anyway, but still, I longed to see you once more, to taste your kisses, to feel your warmth while you embraced me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd because I didn\u2019t come, did you find comfort in someone else\u2019s arms?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThings aren\u2019t what you think.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen explain it to me, because I don\u2019t understand anything.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI knew Fay would come to the human world. I\u2019m not allowed to leave the fairy realm, but I wanted to see you, so I agreed to an engagement with him to be able to accompany him and see you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd did you really think it would make me happy to see you knowing you\u2019re engaged to another\u00a0<\/p>\n
man?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI knew you wouldn\u2019t like it, but that was the only way the queen would let me come; besides, I never said I was going to marry him. I can break off the engagement at any time.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSo you\u2019re just pretending to be engaged?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cFairies can\u2019t lie, so everything has to be real. My engagement is real, but I don\u2019t intend to marry\u00a0<\/p>\n
Fay; he already has someone.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Cassian felt he could breathe again. He hugged her and said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m sorry, I couldn\u2019t help but feel jealous when I heard that man was your fianc\u00e9.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Maya returned the hug and replied,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI realized that. It really offends me that you though I forgot about you, because I didn\u2019t. During all this time we were apart, there wasn\u2019t a single day I didn\u2019t think of you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m a complete i***t, right?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
r\u00a0<\/p>\n
115\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Fany Queen\u2019s Wish\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, you are, but don\u2019t worry, I knew that when I fell in love with you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Cassian pulled back a little and pressed his lips to Maya\u2019s. Their kiss became deeper, full of intensity, of contained desire. Maya responded in the same way, as she kissed him, she ran her fingers through his hair, over his shoulders, and down his back. She wanted to feel him, for her hands to remind her of the familiar intimacy. She had longed to be with Cassian in that way so much that for a moment she forgot why she was there.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Fay re\u2013entered, cleared his throat to get their attention, and said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWe don\u2019t have time for this. Save your time with your human lover for later.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Cassian felt little sympathy for that fairy, even though he knew he had helped Maya reunite with\u00a0<\/p>\n
him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m coming, Fay.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOkay, but don\u2019t take long.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Fay left the tent again, Cassian asked,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy have you come, Maya?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThe queen has sent us here to forge an alliance.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAn alliance? I thought she didn\u2019t want to participate in this war.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Clairm\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cShe changed her mind when they attacked the fairy land. Actually, we are also at war; we are also fighting against those monsters born from darkness.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cBut why is King Venobich fighting against the fairy and?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThe king\u2019s daughter is leading an army of monsters. She believed the fairy queen had one of the keys to the gates of Hades and tried to make a deal to obtain it, but the queen didn\u2019t have it. The queen told her so, but the daughter didn\u2019t believe her and began attacking us a few weeks ago. Those monsters are nearly impossible to kill; we desperately need weapons to fight them.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou need enchanted weapons.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s right, Fay is in charge of the negotiations, and I accompanied him.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThe enchanted weapons come from the elves; you will have to speak with them.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI know, but the queen wants to form alliances not just with the elves, but also with the humans.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen the queen found out about Abril, she became interested in her.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat? Did you tell her about her?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
2\/5\u00a0<\/p>\n
< The Fairy Queen\u2019s Wish\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cShe asked questions, I can\u2019t lie, I had to answer all her questions.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou could have omitted it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
A shadow of concern crossed Maya\u2019s face, and she replied.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Glam\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s not as easy as you think. Even when I tried to lie, I ended up blurting out the truth. No matter how much I resist, the words spill out uncontrollably. It\u2019s horrible.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m sorry, I didn\u2019t\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI know you had no way of knowing.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Fay peeked into the tent again, and before he said anything, she said goodbye to Cassian.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI have work to do. I\u2019ll see you later.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Cassian grabbed Maya\u2019s hand, preventing her from eaving. When he saw her walk away, he felt he wouldn\u2019t see her again. She seemed to notice his anxiety, placed her hand on his arm and said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not leaving, at least not yet. I\u2019ll be back in a while.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019d better accompany you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat would be nice.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Maya said as she looked at Fay, who nodded. Maya entwined her arm with Cassian\u2019s and said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen let\u2019s go.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
As they exited the tent, many soldiers turned to look at them. Some recognized Maya and, seeing her with Cassian, were happy for him. Others couldn\u2019t take their eyes off Maya\u2019s fairy companion; he exuded an otherworldly aura that made him seem anything but human. He had white hair and red eyes, his skin was pale, and he was slender, his appearance was beautiful but strange.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Cassian guided them to the elves\u2018 tent.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMay I come in?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Dantriel came out of the tent and was very surprised to see Maya and the other fairy\u00a0<\/p>\n
accompanying her there.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat are you doing here?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Fay replied.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI am Faylion, representative of the fairy queen. I have come as a messenger and request an audience in your presence.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cCome in.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Upon entering the tent, Fay handed a letter to Dantrel. After reading it, he said,\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\u00a0<\/p>\n
315\u00a0<\/p>\n
< The Fairy Queen\u2019s Wish\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cSo you are also being attacked.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYes, the queen is furious, she wants to destroy the human king who dared to defile her lands.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy have you come here and not gone directly to my kingdom?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is what my queen asked of me. I only fulfill her wishes.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Claim\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat your queen desires is not something I can give her at this moment. The blessing of light is something only a member of the elven royal family can give.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s not true. In this camp, you have what my queen desires, a member of the elven royal family, a princess to be more exact.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Dantriel looked at Maya, she lowered her head, feeling guilty for having revealed such an important\u00a0<\/p>\n
secret as the existence of Abril, and apologized.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m sorry, I couldn\u2019t help but reveal it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Dantriel sighed. He knew that all fairies were compelled to tell the truth; the queen must have\u00a0<\/p>\n
made her speak.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI think you\u2019re confusing me with someone else, I\u2019m not the one who can help you with that.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s not entirely true, she is half elf princess and half human queen, and as far as I know, that\u2019s something the elf queen doesn\u2019t know.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Cassian spoke instead of Dantriel.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIs that a threat?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, I\u2019m stating the situation. My queen wants the princess to come to the fairy land to receive her\u00a0<\/p>\n
blessing.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd why not go directly to the elf queen and ask for weapons to fight the monsters? Why does it have to be Abril who goes?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cFairies can\u2019t use weapons made of iron, it makes us weak, and a weak warrior is a useless warrior, a walking corpse on the battlefield.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s not true, Maya can use weapons made of iron.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cMay I remind you that fairies cannot lie. Maya can use weapons made of iron because she is mixed\u2013blood, half\u2013human, half\u2013fairy; we need our weapons blessed and, as Dantriel already knows, the elf royalty never leaves their lands. They won\u2019t come to our aid. That\u2019s why it has to be your\u00a0<\/p>\n
princess who has to go.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd if we refuse?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIn that case, we will use any method to get what we want, no matter how vile and underhanded\u00a0<\/p>\n
