192 You Can’t See Her

The more he spoke to them, the more he realized how pointless it was to make them understand their wrong. Although some of them appeared remorseful, he didn’t have the little strength to trust their deceiving faces.

Rather, it only got him angrier by the second, and instead of wasting his saliva on these ignorant Demons, he’d use this precious time to think of something, or anything that could help him get his Anna back.

Saving his words since these people weren’t even worth it, he proceeded to pick the lifeless body of Anna from the ground, carrying her in his arms and refusing to let anyone come near her.

Before he walked out, he stopped and shot everyone a glare. A look of insanity flashed into the depths of his hazel-green eyes and everyone knew that they had awakened a terrible side in Roshan.

“If I see anyone near Anna’s body, or her doorstep, then they’ll explain to me the type of coffins they’d wish to have personally made for themselves.”

With that dangerous warning ringing in the ears of everyone present, he went up the long stairs, not giving a damn about the look on their faces.

Some tried to speak and apologize for their wrong doings but no one was brave enough to utter a word to the demon who looked ready to slaughter them in two.

But most of all, Anna’s death really came as a shock to everyone.

“Wait, where are you–” Calista stopped talking after seeing Azazel had surprisingly transported her back to Euphrasia. She couldn’t understand why he was staring at her with such hatred, even more than the ones she saw in those icy blue eyes of his, and she was clueless on what happened or what she had done to deserve that look from him.

He had showed up unannounced in the room he had locked her in, and before she could ask about the whereabouts of Anna, the Demon had grabbed her arm, forcing her to her feet and transported her back here.

She should be happy that he brought her back, but for some reason, she wasn’t because she knew very well that he had a reason for bringing her back to Euphrasia.

“Go.” He said to her, “go back to your kingdom.” He wasn’t smiling at all, and it wasn’t that he usually smiled, but his face was contorted with a sneer that left her puzzled with many questions.

“Why... what happened?” She asked.

“What happened?” He tilted his head at her, “didn’t you want to return to your precious Euphrasia kingdom, so I brought you back.”

As always his tone was calm, but then there was a message that came with every word he said to her, leaving her heart unsettled, and she wasn’t liking the way he stared at her as though she committed something treacherous.

“You didn’t let me see Anna.” She pointed out, ignoring his own word and to be honest, she was more concerned about Anna than having to deal with this Demon’s ill-like stare.

“Anna?” He questioned before letting out a low dark chuckle, “you can’t see her.”

“What!” Calista frowned, “but you told me you’d bring Anna to me, you told me I’d see her again.”

“And I’m saying you can’t see her.”

“Why?!”

“Ask your brother.” Came his subtle response that muted Calista immediately, “if you want to know why you can’t see Anna anymore, then ask your brother.”

“Huh?” Her brows furrowed, “m_my brother?”

“Farewell.”

And he vanished, leaving the baffled Calista to stand before the gate of the palace, and the moment Azazel vanished from sight, a guard who was guarding the big gate showed up the moment he heard voices, but he dropped his guard after seeing it was the missing princess standing outside the gate.

“Princess!” He exclaimed in surprise before hurrying towards her direction.

Calista turned around to look at the guard who appeared happy about her presence and he bowed slightly, an elated look painting his young face.

“You’re finally back!”

“Why?..what happened?” She asked the guard who seemed to be looking behind her from time to time, as though he was expecting someone to show up as well.

“Did you come alone?” The guard finally asked Calista who thought about her response before nodding her head.

“Yes... are you expecting anyone?”

The guard’s youthful face creased into confusion, “Wasn’t it his majesty that brought you back?” Asked the guard, “the news of your abduction got to the palace two days ago, so his majesty and a few guards went to bring you back, but you’re here alone.”

“M_my brother went to look for me?” She asked, and the guard nodded immediately.

“Yes my princess, he was extremely furious when he got to know that a demon had abducted you. Please pardon my words but you should be more careful when walking down the forest, it’s still not safe out there and I’m just saying out of concern.”

“Well, where’s his majesty now??”

“He hasn’t returned yet, that’s why I’m surprised to see you out here alone, did you escape?”

Without answering to the nosy guard, Calista made her way into the palace and Azazel’s words kept ringing in her head.

If her brother had gone to look for her, then was he able to locate their hideout?? She saw Anna leave on a horse that night, wearing a cloak and she was in a hurry to leave like she was going to meet someone.

Or did she meet Adryan secretly? Does Anna know she was in the hands of those demons? Is that why the demon brought her back?

As much as she tried to make sense from it all, nothing seemed to click. If Anna did know about her kidnap, then surely she would have come to see her before going anywhere, or is her thinking all wrong?

What does her brother have to do with her being unable to see Anna?
