The God And His Bride - Episode 32

 

Alixi

I bang against the shield put up in the room star slept in, I watch through the shield as Tajiki deals her a blow to the head and she slumps.

His eyes comes to me, expressionlessly and he moves, taking her away into the night sky.

I growl, as I burst through the wall, I feel Lucc at my heels as we fly, trying to get to the bastard.

I slow down, we can't, we won't be able to do it,.

I stir Lucc away from their course and soon another winged bastard, a minor God flies by, he gets hooked by my magic and I pull him to me, taking him back to the house.

He's gonna be a scapegoat, the one who's going to receive all the rage I'm feeling. 

Since I couldn't get to my bride, he's going to tell me everything I need to know to take down these bastards. 

I throw him down on the sitting room floor as I wave a hand repair all the damages done. 

The vermin on the ground begins to crawl away, trying to get into the ground away fro me. 

"Majesty, please.." He says, knowing fully well that he's dead if I get to him. 

"How many were you?" I ask, the rage in me giving my voice a bite. 

"Majesty..... Ali...."He sobs, breaking down.. 

" How

. Many. Were you?! "I ask, not in the mood for all this.. Diversion. 

" Four"He says when Lucc lifts him by the neck to place a well curved talon at his neck. 

"Names" 

"Ta.. Tajiki,.." He says, mentioning the most obvious of them all "Mystic.." Another minor god.... "... Dawn.." another minor god "And Nero" I pause. 

"Nero?" 

"Yes, yes majesty..." 

"You won't be lying to me now would you?" 

"Never majesty" He says and I know he's not lying. 

Why ever Tajiki decided to make these minor gods with the exception of Nero into his cohorts is beyond me. They are as useless as rain on a Christmas morning. 

I feel my energy being pulled and I know that star is calling for me, the link is weak which means she is not in this realm but but also means she is alive. 

"What is the plan?" I ask as I hear Milo coming down the stairs. 

I turn to her. 

She looks worse for wear but nevertheless alive, my eyes follow the trail of blood on her head and my rage burns deeper in the room.

One of the less fortunate occupants of the room must have felt it because he gives a loud sob. 

"I never... I never would have done anything like this.... Never but, Nero and Tajiki, they took my family.. Thry stripped me of my powers, they said the council wanted the goddess of time dead.. I couldn't say no..." He says again, sobbing. 

My eyes go to Milo and I understand what is going on. 

" They..

. They took. Maia too, right when she was coming from this realm, they just grabbed her.. "I freeze and Milo does too. 

" What? "Milo voices my thought with a soft whisper. 

" Maia, that had been looking for people who hates the rule of Alixi, we.. Us.. We didn't support them and they began taking our allegiance by force., Maia, Maia was your biggest supporter "

They took Maia, Maia who can not even harm a fly, sweet Maia. 

They will bleed. 

Rivers of blood. 

" They want you gone majesty and the only way to do that is to take your bride and... And... And.. "

I know what he's saying, to kill my bride, thereby making me look unfit to even protect her. 

Thereby making the great mother strip me of my divine rights.. 

" We have to go "Milo says, coming to the same conclusion like I did. 

" Yes, we must "I say." lucc, stay back and watch him, we must... "

" The hell I wil, that's my soul mate you are going to save, I'm coming with you, banished or not "He says and I don't argue but I turn to the vermin. 

" Where are they? "

" In the throne room, they will be expecting you"

I nod, good, I want them to be expecting me, far be it for anyone to say I took them by surprise. 

"You will go back home and wait, if I find out you have lied to me you will die" 

"No.. No lie.. Majesty" he says but I don't stay back to hear him, I'm already out through the roof, Lucc and Milo besides me. 

Hold on Sona, it won't be a moment.
