Okay! Exams are over and I am so tired. Even though we have no class tomorrow, I still have to meet up with friends to finish a project! Oh man! Recently, I only get about 3 hours of sleep everyday. Guess I'll just start relaxing during sem-break.
Btw I was supposed to put Carlos' email add in chapter 4 but it didn't show. Dunno why though. Ah just forget about it. You can address your questions directly and it's either me or him will comply okay?
Now on with chapter 5!
Flashback:
"Your majesty, I would like to discuss about the treaty. If possible can we-"
"Ah! I was thinking the same thing. I have a change of plans for that."
"What do you mean?"
The king gave a devilish smile, "I would like the treaty to be my son, Lysander, and your soldier, Sir Wolfram von Bielelfield's union."
"WHAT?"
"Your highness! This is impossible. Wolfram is already engaged to the Maou!" Conrad protested. The king turned his back on his audience, "if you refuse, then I shall not follow through with the treaty." His stubbornness shocked them all."
"Why such a demand? What do you want to prove here?" Yuuri stepped up. He then turned to face him, "to make sure that you will give your utmost support in times of crisis in our country…what else?"
This was confusing for them all; demanding for the dissolution of the engagement for peace is too much. Conrad looked at his brother, he was pretty sure that somehow you could see a hint of fear in his eyes. He could understand him somehow, all this time of chasing. Now that Yuuri is now his, they are to be separated. He has to do something for his King and for his brother. "I shall assure you, your majesty, that I shall personally see to it that your country will be provided with the amount of military power and support that you shall request. Just please, let the engagement of the Maou be. We can talk this over."
"Well Conrad, it's not only that. You see my son only has eyes for Sir Wolfram. He has been broken after your Heika claimed him last night and of course, as the father, I will do anything to relieve him of this hurt. If their marriage shall go on, then not only does my son get a benefit from this but also I could benefit from it as well since we all know Wolfram is the brother of two of the most strongest Mazoku and with military forces with exceptional abilities of their soldiers. I'm sorry Sir Weller but I am not going to change my mind." He smirked. Yuuri was furious of his reasons. 'This is too much! Just when I have him… I already have him… then… you…'
"Damn you!" he yelled and a luminous light covered his whole body. He was now turning into the Maou. "This is unforgivable. A love bonded by time should not be estranged"
"Heika." Conrad voiced. Wolfram noticed Yuuri's transformation. "Yuuri, don't do this. Don't go against him anymore. Severe punishment may be bestowed upon us." He begged but he was left unheard.
"Instead of having them abandon their affections, it must be nurtured. Witnessing a blossoming love being divided, I am torn apart. Those who detach these bonds… shall not be forgiven!" he was ready to attack but Wolfram had already come between them. "Your majesty I accept." He uttered. "I accept the proposal of marriage with his highness, Lysander von Alstair." Shocked, Conrad was unable to move from his position. The Maou approached Wolfram; "Are you certain of your chosen decision?" a tear fell from Wolfram's eye answering, "Yes." The Maou closed his eyes and not a second later, collapsed then Yuuri appeared. Although weak, he forced himself to stand up and face Wolfram, tears now flowing freely. "Why, Wolf?"
Wolfram cupped his face with both hands. "Because it is the only solution that I could think of. Everyone at home is waiting for your arrival, hoping that once again, you've promoted peace to yet another country." Yuuri caressed the hands that were on his cheeks, "but… just when we're now together… I can't-" Yuuri held Wolfram close and in a whisper, he spoke, "I'm still not giving up on you Wolf… I'll definitely get you out of this." Wolfram gave him a nod as a reply and without their knowing, even Conrad was unaware of the guards who were ordered to separate them.
Again the king gave them his infamous devilish smile and ordered the guards, "Bring Heika and Sir Weller back to their quarters and I want them guarded all day. And as for Wolfram…" he looked at him, "bring him to my son's room. Oh and by the way…" he approached Wolfram, "I don't want my son to know about what has taken place here. Convince him that you've finally chosen him out of your own will. Got that?" Wolfram looked at him with such deceit. "And if I tell him?" the king turned his back and before leaving, he said, "then Heika will bear the penalty intended for you."
!#$&()
Lysander was startled between sobs when he saw Wolfram entered his room, "the door was open so I let myself in. is that okay with you?" Lysander immediately stood up, "it's okay, I don't mind." He rubbed his eyes with his sleeves from the traces of tears. "Why have you come anyways?"
"I have come here to be yours now."
"But I thought you were with Yuuri?"
"What about him?" Wolfram asked, tilting his head to one side.
Before Lysander could even answer, Wolfram approached him, brought his arms up to his neck and embraced him, "He was a wimp, and a cheater. Although I loved him, I can't forget about you." Lysander positioned his arms around his waist, "So this means, you're mine now?" Wolfram looked up, "Yes". Lysander was overjoyed by this and tightened his embrace, buried his face in Wolfram's hair. 'I'm sorry Yuuri. I am left with no choice. I guess I can't call you a cheater anymore.' he thought as a tear left his eye.
AAAAHHHH! Sorry… this was a short one. I think I used up all my brains during the exams. Hehehe… btw those who are taking their exams on November, YOU ARE SOOO LUCKY! Wish we had the sem-break first too.
maldita08: thanks for telling me. i kinda mistyped it I guess. You see inmy friend's fic, I suggested the name Lysander Voltaire but changed the last name to von Alstair since von Voltaire is already taken... Sorry...
