Chapter 485: Men inside the castle_Part 1

Rohan slipped her bracelet into his pocket and then touched Angel’s hair. "I’ll be back with your mother. Stay with Evenly. Keep blood beside you for him," he told Evenly, and without waiting for anyone to speak again, Rohan went out through the window, opening his wings and flying into the gray sky.

Evenly watched the duke disappear into the heavy clouds, which seemed as if the heavens themselves knew blood was about to be shed in the lands and everything had turned gloomy. She had never been this worked up in all her life before, and Evenly clasped her hands together and silently prayed for the first time since losing her mother, who had always taken her to church, that they all would make it out unaffected.

’Please let me not lose anyone again, not Rav, who gave me the reason to want to live, and not Belle, who stood by me when I thought everyone was against me.’ She looked up at the gray sky and noticed how the birds were still flying away from the west, making it clear that whatever was happening there was not something small. She felt her palms turn sweaty and wiped them against her dress.

Evenly, who was staring out the window at the sky, felt Angel’s small hand slip into hers when she brought her hand down to her side. He wrapped his fingers around her index finger, holding it tight.

She looked down at him to see him looking up at her, his eyes having turned back to their normal black with the white clear in them. Her eyes went to his bare arm and the unhealed wound, and Evenly felt her insides clench in sympathy for the boy. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

"Does it still hurt?" she asked quietly.

Angel shook his head. "Not hurting, just itchy."

Evenly touched her other hand to his hair, stroking it as she said, "Rav didn’t mean to hurt you. I am sorry you have to go through such a thing. I hope you won’t hold it against him when you see him again." She said this, already believing that Rav would be healed and that he would come back to her soon, and also knowing how Angel was a small boy with big feelings might hold it against him.

Months ago, when his father had locked him along with himself in the drawing room, Evenly had seen how the boy had ignored his father and how he wouldn’t forgive him. It had taken a great effort from the duke to earn his son’s forgiveness and trust again. A boy with such big feelings might not forgive Rav for altering his life by giving him an infection.

However, Angel surprised her by grinning and shrugging his little shoulders. He said, "I am not angry that uncle Rav bite my hand, Enny. He didn’t mean to, just like I also did not want to hurt Sofia." Angel then turned to look out the window into the gloomy sky, his grin slowly falling away as he said in a soft voice, "My mama is out there. Angel can smell danger and death... People will go away from this world. I don’t like when I smell it like that, Enny. Will my Mama be fine and come back to me?" He turned to look at her with hopeful black eyes.

Evenly had no idea how big this war was, and if Rohan hadn’t talked about it happening, she would have been ignorant of it as the castle was far from cities and town to hear the news. But the look in the boy’s eyes and the hope in her own heart made her nod.

"She will be. I believe your father will keep her safe." She wrapped her arm around him and pulled him close to hold him against her. Angel raised his hand to hold her around the waist, but his hand could only reach her big stomach since he wasn’t tall enough. He placed his hand there, just as he always did with his own mother.

"I am not happy anymore, Enny... I have fears inside my heart. I can feel you also have it in your heart. And—" Angel stopped mid-sentence as he got distracted by the kick he felt against his hand that came from Enny’s belly. He put his hand squarely on the part that rose against her dress where the little feet of the baby pushed. Angel’s eyes became round with wonder.

"Enny, the baby is pushing my hand! Mama, baby, don’t push my hand like that, it only touch it."
