Chapter 511-520
Chapter 511 – Memories (Part II)
But now he is being forced to watch it all happening once again. He was being made to view the darkest day of his life once again. However, this time he was seeing the reason why she was even there when she was supposed to be with the queen recuperating. He saw her lips moving as she rushed to where he was. She was saying something, as if uttering a prayer.
Then he began to hear her small murmurs between her pants. “Please don’t. Don’t do it. Gideon… don’t!”
Her words. It made him curious now. What was it that she was murmuring? His heartbeat began to race harder as all the pain and suffering over the many years rippled in his heart. Why? Why did she sound like she knew what he was about to do? How did she even know? He had never mentioned his plan to her – ever – because he had not wanted her to worry about him. He did not want to give his beloved any burdens to bear. So how? How had she even known that he was at the abyss at that moment?
The desire to know more became even stronger now and he reached out, wanting to know her thoughts too, aside from watching her memories. He wanted to know. What had actually driven her to go out there and look for him?
He reached out as far as he could and to his shock as well as relief, he started to see her thoughts too. And there he began to see it all… that she… this woman that he had loved was just like him. She too had a deep secret she had kept that she had never revealed to him even though he was her most beloved person. She had kept from him the fact that she had the gift of seeing into the future through her dreams. She was actually the descendant of the long lost legendary dark fae clan, called the Drasias, who were able to summon and control ice dragons. This clan, the tales had said, had fought against the light faes’ fire dragons a long time ago.
Gideon saw her dream that he was going to succeed from sealing the abyss. But in exchange, he was going to lose his mind due to the impossible amount of magic he needed to force out from himself. He was going to break… literally. His mind, his heart and his soul would fall apart, and he would then be reborn as the new villain that would destroy everything all over again, just only to reach the end, getting killed like what had happened to his father. She obviously did not want that to happen to him.
Therefore, she had rushed ahead, praying that she could make it and would be able to stop him from sacrificing himself.
