Lord xanders pov

"Save them or you die "

" Listen to me xander this wouldn't help ,it's better the child dies than you having to kill him in the future "

" Am willingly ready to accept my fate "

" A fate where by she will have to suffer and raise him alone or where you will have to watch him call someone else father "

" I will be at rest knowing that had a son in. the realm of the living "

'Oh please stop talking nonsense xander do think it's that easy, the worst of all is that she doesn't even know that you will die by her hands, do you what to make her go crazy just tell her the truth xander tell her that the reason you led her on was that she was going to kill you , tell her xander , tell her "

"Raphauzel!!!" Lord xanders voice roared like thunder making everyone to hid themselves in fear "

" Do you think am joking with you, now listen to me, you will save her, and nothing I repeat nothing should happen to my child or you lose your head this instant"

" I can't save her like this, you are tensed up and everyone around is tensed up too, tell me how can I do it "

" Save her, am ready to die in place of my son "

" You don't mean that do you "

" I mean every word I just said "

" I don't know how we are going to do this but the only way out is to drain the poison out of her "

" Will it affect the baby "

' Xander this is a very tough decision, can you do this, am afraid Drusilla will want to use this opportunity to take advantage of you "

" Nothing will happen to me just save her that's all am asking save my child and the woman I love "

" Please xander I will give you time to think about this, this poison will target the beast in you and you might not recover from it "

" Is that all "

" No, secondly the ancient dagger has been found " everything around lord xander stood still, and for about a second he was lost for words, Raphauzel quickly use the opportunity to remove the sword that was very close to her neck then she took some steps back creating a huge distance between the both of them "

" Since when did you know "

" Locasta came to tell me about it two nights ago " A smile appeared on lord Xander's face then he took a few steps closer to her, Raphauzel on the other hand, was careful not the say anything that could trigger lord xanders anger more . they had known each other for 300years but her greatest fear is this man standing in front of him.

She had watched this man kill two powerful witches right before her eyes, she knows what lord xander can do when he gets angry so she was trying as much as possible not to fall into his trap by any means necessary.

" Tell me Raphauzel who has the ancient Dragger "

" I..i..wanted to tell you but you were so happy with the news of victoria's pregnancy "

" I wasn't asking about that I just want to know who has the ancient dragger"

" It's..its.Drusilla " The smile on lord xanders face brightened "

" Tell me Raphauzel who is working for Raphauzel "

" What do you mean by that lord xander, for you off course "

" I just want to give you a quick reminder, I saved you from the villagers when they almost burnt you to ash so you will repay me by saving the life of my woman and my child, but if you fail I promise you a painful death " Raphauzel immediately swallowed her words she knew that this wasn't going to end well, someone had to let go at this point but this stubborn man wouldn't want to let go of any of them, and if a life had to be save it's that of Victoria she was ready to let the child die because from the vision she had seen this child was going to be a threat to her kind, he was going to lead an army against the dark world but she was bonded by an oath to serve lord xander till her death "

" Am waiting Raphauzel "

" Please lord xander can I have a word with you please "

" Am not deaf Raphauzel "

" Please can I take you to the future please "

" Why do you want to do that, and I hope you know it wouldn't make me change my mind one bit Raphauzel "

" Please xander just a glimpse to the future and then let's see if you still want to hold on to him or let go "

Raphauzel. grabbed lord xanders hand the next minute they appeared in front of a Hut it looks like that of Raphauzel's hut, but from what he saw it was as if some witches were hiding in the hut, they had fear in their eyes, some of them were seen arguing blaming Raphauzel for saving the life of that boy, the next thing they saw a young version of lord xander in the room his fang was visible and his nails were long, the next minute every one of them where died including Raphauzel.

Raphauzel let go of lord xanders hand and turned to look at him.

" This is a peek of what the future will look like for my kind lord xander "

" My son will make me proud Raphauzel "

" Please lord xander have a rethink please,"

" Are you scared that you are going to die in the hands of my son Raphauzel "

" All so my kind "

" You don't have to be this uncharitable Raphauzel, You have lived long enough don't you think so Raphauzel , I don't think I will be there in the future so you shouldn't be there too , let's do it this way why don't you kill yourself and follow me to the afterlife "

" Xander please "

" Enough of the jokes get to work "

Lord Xander laid down on the bed beside Victoria and was waiting patiently for Raphauzel to drain the poison into his system, Raphauzel on the other hand , couldn't bring herself to do it.

" Please lord xander have a rethink please "

" Do it Raphauzel "!!
