MEILIN’S REBORN (Battle Of The Heart And Throne)

“Den!! How dare you touch my woman!!” Rennie growled angrily, hugging Gianna more tighter to himself.

“Your woman?” Gianna asked and Angie stood up from where he fell earlier.

“I asked you a f**king question!” Rennie snapped.

“First of all, she’s not your woman Rennie. Stop being blind” Angie replied and Rennie scoffed.

“She’s not my woman??, Go ahead and explain that to the gods then” he replied.

“You should stop being this way Rennie, that was before but this is now, the gods only asked you to assist me!” Angie snapped.

“You’re wrong Den, the gods didn’t just asked me to assist you, they never called off my engagement with her so stop thinking they’ll pick you instead” Rennie replied.

Gianna forcefully pulled herself away from him and stood at their middle.

“Will someone explain to me what’s happening here?” She asked with a confused expression on her face.

Just hearing them talk about engagement, woman, this and that was confusing her.

Angie opened his mouth to reply but Rennie beats him to it.

“I’m sure this Angie here had told you about everything” he said and crossed his arms.

“Thousands of years ago when Xia Meilin was still alive, the gods of all the heavens has chosen me to marry her, we were to build our own palace and rule it together but after excelling in the battle with the king of demons, she didn’t come out alive due to her sisters and that’s why my marriage was paused but it was never cancelled”

“I lived, being single for hundred thousand of years without the gods saying or doing anything until now Meilin’s recanalization will take place. Although they chose Angie at first but seeing that he won’t be able to handle it they have called me to assist him so sweetheart, the gods never forgot about us.. I’m sure once all this is over, you’ll come to peacock palace with me and we’ll get married” he smiled.

Angie clenched his fist tight while Gianna shook her head.

“I don’t want that to happen, the gods asked you to marry Xia Meilin and not me” she replied.

Rennie laughed and moved closer to her.

“You are Xia Meilin, she’s living inside your body and very soon, you’ll turn to her so it’s the same thing” he shurgged.

“I don’t want to be her!!” Gianna screamed out and Angie immediately moved to hug her to himself.

“I said get your hands away from my woman!!” Rennie snapped and pushed Angie again with his powers, making his back to crash against the wall.

“Angie!” Gianna called and turned to look at Rennie in anger.

“What?, You wanna fight your husband because of this kid?” He asked and Gianna’s eyes turned purple.

“I’m not your woman” she screamed, creating a loud sound wave that pushed Rennie far away from her.

Her eyes turned back to normal and she began feeling dizzy.

“Anna..” Angie managed to stand up and moved closer to her.

She was about to fall when he cought her in his arms.

“Anna” he called again.

His eyes focused on the shinning Scarlett mark that on her forehead.

He immediately pointed a finger at the mark, some golden light began shinning on it and the mark disappeared.

“Anna” he muttered and hugged her tight then looked up when he noticed that Rennie had already stood up.

They were some dried blood on his lips as he was looking down at them.

“Hug her all you want Angie but nothing will change the fact that she is mine” he said and disappeared off.

Angie sighed and hugged Gianna to himself even more tighter.

EVENING, G&N ROOM**

“Finally there you are” Nevaeh stood up the moment Gianna opened the door and entered.

“Why do you look that way?” She asked when she saw Gianna frowning.

“Nothing” Gianna shook her head and sat on the bed.

“What do you mean nothing, see the way you’re keeping secrets from me, I thought we were friends” Nevaeh scoffed.

“I’m not keep anything from you, I’m just a bit moody” she muttered and lay down.

“Okay then but where were you since morning?” Nevaeh asked and Gianna sighed.

“Angie’s room” she replied.

“Angie’s room, what happened… Did those two…

“No I only met Angie there, he said I passed out on the floor and he brought me to his room” she replied slowly.

“Then what happened what did he do?” Nevaeh asked and Gianna sat up.

She took the blanket and covered herself with it before facing Nevaeh again..

“He bought some breakfast for me and told me some stories” she replied.

“Is that all?” Nevaeh asked, giving her a look.

“Gosh whatelse do you think could have happened?” Gianna rolled her eyes.

“Nothing happened between you two??, You know in the latest comic I was reading. The FL use to be as naive as you but there was a day she went to a party, she drank and she got drunk then the ML took her to his room. They were both drunk and they slept together” Nevaeh said.

Gianna gasped and took her pillow then threw it at her.

“Just what rubbish are you even saying?, Angie wasn’t drunk and even if he was drunk, he’ll never do that he’s a good guy” she said.

Nevaeh just smiled and shook her head then went back to the small kitchen to check on the noddles she was cooking.

“How about you, where did you sleep?” Gianna asked.

“I slept at the party, on a couch… It was so uncomfortable. No one could even take me to their room they just left me alone then I woke up with a heavy neck” Nevaeh pouted.

“You want me to massage it for you?” Gianna asked and Nevaeh nodded with a smile.

She forgot that Gianna was the best massager she had ever seen. Back then when they were still going to highschool, Gianna do work in a spa and it was selling really well.

Gianna smiled and tapped the bed, motioning Nevaeh to come sit.

Nevaeh immediately turned off the cooker and came to sit beside her.

“Before I start, promise me three cans of coke” Gianna said.

“Promise” Nevaeh replied and Gianna smiled then she began massaging her friends neck.

ROOM 150**

Everyone are asleep already expect from Zachary who kept moving his head left and right. His facial expressions shows that he was in pain plus he kept sweating too much.

This only means one thing…© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

He was having another nightmare again.

This time he was in the middle of no where, dressed as the general Kia he was popularly known as.

He kept looking left and right as the shadow of a huge dragon kept surrounding him.

“Who’s there, show Yourself!!” He yelled but no response.

“I said show Yourself!!” He yelled again, drawing his sword out this time.

The shadow kept surrounding him even faster and he was forced to start using his sword to chase them out.

“Zachary Chen” someone called him, it sounded like a pale female voice but he couldn’t see anyone.

“General Kia” the person called again and he looked back.

“Come out now, if you wanna fight I’m here… Don’t be a coward!!” He yelled and another shadow passed him.
