Following your heart

            Bethany and Savarus were currently inside the castle like building, taking some cold tea to cool down their temperature from the hot sun.

"Do you want anything else" asked Savarus to Bethany.

"I'm okay, I don't really feel like having anything".

"Go and tell the chefs to prepare some quick dish for our special guest" said Savarus to the maid attending to them.

"But I just said, I don't feel like eating".

"I insist, I Know you haven't eaten anything after the training and I also know you are famished right now, it's already afternoon" the moment Savarus said this words, her stomach started rumbling, Savarus raise an eyebrow and she hid her face in shame.

It didn't take the maid up to thirty minutes before coming back with some delicious meal, about five different delicacies was serve on the table.

"Wow, that was really quick" exclaimed Bethany looking at all the dishes with watering mouth. Savarus picked up his spoon and started tasting all the food.

"You can start eating" said Savarus waving all the maids out.

"What was your reason for tasting all the dishes".

"To check if it poisonous".

"What!!!, why didn't you tell the cook to taste it by himself, what if it was poisonous, don't you know you would have die" shouted Bethany.

"Don't worry, I'm just joking and besides no poison can kill me" said Savarus in a joking manner.

"You better be careful with what you say".

"Come on let's eat before the food gets cold" .

After the meal and some few rest, Bethany and Savarus was on the road again, but this time in a carriage, in no time they have gotten to the bucadox clan.

"Savarus, I want to have a word with you" said Oscar immediately Savarus and Bethany got inside the building. Savarus didn't say anything, but just follow him. When they have gotten to a quiet place, Oscar turn to him.

"I won't beat around the bush with you, I want you to tell me what you think about my daughter or preharp what you feel for her".

"I knew not killing that guard you sent to follow me was a mistake, I should have just killed him".

"So you knew I sent a guard to follow your every movement".

"Yeah, I know right from the beginning, since the day we have a spar, do you really have so little trust in me".

"Do you really think I will just leave my daughter to a complete stranger who I don't know a thing about. Of cause not, I will definitely take some precaution".

"I know, but I kind of feel hurt hearing it from you right now" said Savarus in a smirking way.

"That was then, but now you have earn my trust. Let's go back to the reason I called you here, what do you feel for my daughter cause I clearly saw both of you at the roof top that festival night, I don't want to see my daughter ever getting hurt, so you better stop if you know you just want to play with her" threatened oscar.

Oscar was currently staring at Savarus intensively, ready to pierce through his soul if he speak out of tone.

"What I feel for you daughter is real and truthful, I don't have any other motive".

"Good, you better be true to your word and I also want you to do this, I know it will be much for you, but I want you to do it, if you really love my daughter I give you two week to come for her hand in marriage, she is not getting any younger".

"Isn't that too quick" asked Savarus.

"There is no such thing as too quick. There is something I want to tell you, I don't know why I feel this way, but I can clearly feel death lurking around me, it's look like my time is soon coming to an end, I need someone to be there for Bethany, I have no other person than you".

"You are kidding right, why will you say something like that".

"Just do as I say, I'm sure Bethany also feel the same way as you, so don't waste anytime and come to me in two weeks, so we can talk about a marriage proposal" said oscar while walking away leaving Savarus standing alone.

'Is this really the right thing to do, leaving my people and living the life of own, but I don't see a reason why I can't leave my life with the person my heart chooses to be with'.

'I can't sacrifice my happiness because of those damn encranoes, I'm even sure no encranoes would remember me after all those years, I can leave my life as a human and experience the things I didn't'.

'I always hated myself for having this powers, everybody grew old and die with the people they love, why I always seem to stand alone, I don't see any harm in being a little selfish for once' Savarus was having an internal battle in his mind, his heart wanted to be somewhere else while his mind chooses a different path.

'Everybody in the craken world would already been thinking that I'm long gone, so I should just keep it that way' Savarus walk out of the bucadox clan. He quickly enter his carriage, didn't take him much time before getting home, he called for the head butler.

"Master you called me, how can I be of service to you" said Henry the head butler.

"Henry, that's your name right?" Asked Savarus which Henry nodded to.

You are married right".

"Yes I am".

"Good, I need help with some things about marriage proposal, what and what is done in marriage or things needed to be done".

"You first have to buy some gifts and talk about the marriage proposal with her father" replied Henry.

"Things like what" asked Savarus.

"Things like expensive liquor, some expensive material, some fine jewelries and romantic accessories, well design painting".

"Henry get ready, you are following me to the market to buy all these items" said Savarus while going inside for a change of clothes.
