Chapter 24: Chapter 24

MEL:

Freaking out

That's the word that defines me right now.

I recently found out that Atlas had left my baby I don't know where and now he won't let me go get him

— I need to go get Atlas— I say while trying to get out of bed— Why did you leave it there?— I ask nervously

Atlas who is beside me pushes me firmly and gently back to the bed.

— I know I was stupid to have left you to fend for yourself in a forest, but try to understand that my mind was entirely on you, all I knew was how you could be hurt or something— I see you take a deep breath while having a tired look

— I know he just wanted to see me well, but he's been through so much in his life— I say snuggling in his arms— he's just a little puppy who lost his mother too soon, and who has new parents who are irresponsible— I say cringing in embarrassment

— We nothing, if anyone is irresponsible here it's me!— Atlas takes all the blame and throws it on himself, that's not right

— It doesn't matter who is irresponsible or who is not, what we have to do now is go after our pet— I say looking directly into his eyes

— Okay, I'll send some soldiers to go get you immediately, but stay here until I get back— he says sending me a bossy look

I see him heading towards the door, always looking back, as if at any moment I would run away.

I arch my eyebrows when I see that he is reluctant to leave the room.

I grab one of the many pillows that were on top of the bed, hitting it right away.

— Go soon— I say smiling forcedly when I see that he took the pillow first, no problem at all

(How much reflection)— I think indignantly

— I think it even came close to hitting me— says lonely when he sees frustration on my face

— Atlas is going after my baby soon— I say already irritated with his delay, God that nothing has happened to my prince

He rolls his eyes and reluctantly leaves the room.

While I'm alone I'm thinking about how my baby must be

(I wonder if he's cold, hungry, or even hurt)— I think in anguish, as I remember everything that happened

Flashback:

The prince and I were admiring the landscape of the kingdom when at a certain point I saw a waterfall a little far from where we were, it was deep in the forest

Without worrying, I entered the forest with the prince at my side, I thought it wouldn't be dangerous since the whole kingdom was protected.

big mistake

I was so distracted by the landscape that I didn't even notice when I was cowardly attacked by the coast, I screamed when I felt the impact of my body falling to the ground

I didn't even have time to think when I'm lifted and brutally thrown against a tree

It was all so fast, my vision was blurred, I could only see when the prince went up to the werewolf trying to bite him at all costs.

But logically the bastard was stronger and a push from him was capable of hurting my little dog in a horrible way

Seeing that the werewolf was about to hit my cub, I decided to interfere by forcing myself to stay awake.

— RUN AWAY PRINCE— I scream when my puppy looks at me with his beautiful eyes and then runs away

And I finally fall asleep

End of Flashback.

Now I know that little pest, instead of going to a safe place, went after Atlas, trying to take him to me.

What I don't understand is why he didn't come back, since he knew the way, which leads me to think he's hurt.

I am also outraged by the shameful way in which I was defeated, imagine if it was something more serious like a war, I would certainly be dead by now

This makes me think about how I urgently need to start training because I know I'm powerful because I'm a Suprema Luna, the big problem is how to use that power.

I am snapped out of my daydreams when I hear the noise of what sounds like a troop marching

I get up carefully and go towards the window, there I see some soldiers going directly toward the forest

I stay for a while longer looking out the window, to see if somehow I can find my baby.

Which doesn't last long, because all of a sudden I'm being carried by big, muscular arms back to bed.

I feel when my body goes against the soft mattress, I am gently placed there and when I look at Atlas I see his look of disgust

— Mel, did you see the gravity of what you just did?— Serious question

— What did I do?— I ask not understanding

— What did you do? You just got out of that bed as if you didn't think that at any moment you could fall or stumble, imagine if you fell and hit your head— he speaks nervously while he runs his hand through his hair messing up more than it already was his beautiful strands, that's just once with make it even sexier

— Stop paranoia Atlas...— I'm interrupted by an Atlas more nervous than he already was

— PARANOIA— screams, scaring me— my wife is attacked by a disgusting son of a bitch, besides that I find her passed out near a tree where she was brutally thrown, and on top of that I have to put up with a bunch of people wanting to get close to MY female, knowing that right now what I want most is some time alone with her— takes a deep breath and I can see her red eyes, while her veins are almost bursting out— Don't ask me to stop being "paranoid" " because I'm almost freaking out just seeing you standing there

Okay, that's a rant

I bite my lips and speak after seeing him calmer

— Who wants to see me?— I see indignation in his eyes when he hears my question

— I say all that and that's all you care about?— he rolls his eyes and answers— your parents, my parents, my brother who only knows how to say that you're "sick" and needs him to kiss you on your wound to heal, which I'm warning you is not going to happen. And not counting the many people in the kingdom, who are worried about their Suprema Luna— he stopped by a shelf and added— forget about your part, you're just MINE

I can't stand it and I laugh

He is possessive even over the simplest things.

— Send our parents in and don't forget my toothpick— I say smiling

Atlas gives me a murderous look and it's only then that I realize what a mistake I've made, I had used the word mine for another "man". Atlas is going to freak out

— MY? Since when is that brat yours?— and there's my cute ogre angry again

— Stop it Atlas! He's just his little brother and the poor thing is a kid— I say trying to get him to stop acting like a possessive madman

— My little brother who has a dick between his legs, that is, the child can very well think with his head down— he says as if it were obvious

— He must not even know what a head of low Atlas is— I say disgusted

When he goes to answer the door opens with a bang, two completely crazy mothers come out, two super worried fathers, and a stick that is looking everywhere as if looking for something

In no time the two mothers are already crushing me in a tight arm, I swear if I get out of this hug alive I'll make them both pay for my broken bones

— My little princess, I was so scared, how can you scare us like that?— my mother says smoothing my hair

— That's right young lady, how can you be so mean to the point of scaring us like that, I thought that little heart was more supportive— says my mother— in— law moving away from me to look seriously into my eyes

— I just wanted to see the waterfall— I say justifying myself

— You could very well have told me to take you or even have taken your security guards with you, after all, that's their job— says my sullen ogre

— Never do that again Mel— says my father who has his arms crossed and a look of a protective father— I already lost you once, don't make me feel that way again— he finally says hugging me tightly

— I promise I won't do that again— I whisper in her ear, but I know everyone heard

— Now is my turn— says a certain stick, trying to pass through the people present there

— Come here my cutie— I see the little one open a huge smile, while my ogre narrows his beautiful eyes in my direction

— Does it hurt where Mel?— asks the little stick all worried, at that moment the smart guy was already sitting next to me on the bed

— I think it's over, the only thing that still burns a little is here— he says pointing to a scratch on my forehead

I regret saying this, because right after saying it I see a super worried Atlas pushing away everyone who is in his way to get to me

He kneels beside the bed and asks

— Why didn't you tell me this before?— His jaw is clenched and his gaze is scanning me from head to toe

— Because I knew he'd freak out if I said anything— I say sighing— Atlas that's just a scratch that's just burning, but soon there won't be a single mark left— I try to reassure him

— Come out Atlas— says the little stick calling our attention to him who is trying to stand up on the bed— let me kiss Mel's boob who's already going to bed

I hold Atlas's hand before he does something stupid, like saying something he'll regret later, and I look at the straw saying

— Are you sure my dodo will heal? Then bring that little mouth to my forehead that this kiss is miraculous— I say approaching him

Atlas still seems a bit unconvinced about the passage for the little brother to approach

The little one wastes no time and carefully approaches me, placing a small and brief kiss on my forehead.

I hold back the tears when I see how pure and innocent a child is, I admire their ease of forgiving and forgetting

A good example of this was when Atlas got excited with the straw, it was only for the brother to apologize that the straw was already there again with a pure and sincere smile on his face

I smile with my thoughts and say

— I can already feel my wound healing— I say and get a beautiful smile from him

My hand, which was still intertwined with my ogre's, was caressed softly and delicately, I look at my ogre, seeing him approach me smiling

— Now I'm sure you would be a great mother— he says close to my ear

— Only if it's your children's— I whisper in her ear, seeing her beautiful eyes shine intensely and passionately.
