The Forbidden Love Chapter 3
Not long after I headed back home the demon had another visitor in the cavern. He was nursing his arm when he could suddenly hear someone quickly coming down his way.
Not knowing who, or what it could be, Olympus grabbed his weapon and pointed it in the direction where the footsteps were coming from. "Who's there," he demanded.
Around the corner came his caretaker, Jinxer, holding a vile of some kind of liquid in his hands. "It's just me Olympus," he said, reassuring his charge.
Olympus calmed down when he saw Jinxer. "Ah, Jinxer. Welcome," said Olympus. Olympus lowered his weapon and placed it back down next to him while allowing Jinxer to approach him.
"Rest, my Prince," said Jinxer, lowering himself down to his knees. "I'll nurse you back to health. Just drink this elixir I've brought you."
Olympus nodded and Jinxer brought the vile up to his lips in order to help him drink. Olympus put his hand on the vile with Jinxer, trying to get as much as the elixir in his body as he could in just one gulp.
After a few seconds Olympus took in a breath. "Did anyone see you come in here," asked Olympus. "Were you followed?" "No," answered Jinxer, shaking his head.
"Excellent," said Olympus, satisfied. "Now you must return before the others miss you."
"Yes, my Prince," said Jinxer, "I'll let them think you've perished in the shadow world."
"Perfect," said Olympus. He went to make a fist, but the pain in his arm with his other hand.
Jinxer patted his chest in comfort. "And then you'll return stronger than ever," said Jinxer.
Jinxer brought the vile back to his mouth and Olympus drank the rest of it down.
Jinxer chose that moment to ask about the bandages on his body and the sling on his arm. "Pardon me, my prince. May I speak," he asked.
"What is it, Jinxer," said Olympus.
Jinxer pointed at the bandages. "Forgive my forwardness, but how did you manage to bandage yourself? I left none of this here for you the last time I was here," said Jinxer, curious.
Olympus opened his mouth to answer his caretaker, but just when he was about to speak he hesitated. A few seconds later he did speak up. "That's none of your concern, Jinxer," he said. "Now leave."
Taking the hint, Jinxer stood up from next to Olympus and left. He knew better than to question Olympus when he was like this.
The whole time, Olympus just had his head turned away. To Jinxer, Olympus was only staring at the wall, but in reality Olympus had something on his mind.
Olympus couldn't get it. He was about to tell Jinxer about the human girl when he had suddenly stopped himself. It just didn't make any sense to him right now.
Tired, he settled down for a nice long sleep. He needed the rest. While he was drifting off to sleep that human girl, Kushina, her name was, was still on his mind. She stayed in his mind even after he fell asleep.
