A Demon Duchess

A Demon Duchess
15. Felix Wisteria


The chirping of birds sounded very melodious, rays of sunshine burst through the cracks of the curtains that fell on the floor.


A silver-haired girl with her eyes closed, luxurious and magnificent bed with meaningful carvings that adorn the entire room, of course the original owner of the room is not Althea.


Three days pass after the shocking events of the entire wisteria empire about a lady who is suspected of having dark magic, attacking the king and queen of the kingdom of Astrantia.


"Sister, rest for a while" said a black-haired man with green eyes like a beautiful Periot stone. Someone who he called brother also moved from his activities who were watching Althea with a deep sense.


"Alex however I must protect him" said the man, stroking Althea's head slowly. "You're really not messing around with this one, are you?" Alex asked as he sat down near his sister.


"He made me realize that I'm human too."


....


*flashback*


a boy cheerfully stroked the mother's belly, the mother smiled sweetly seeing her son so impatient with the presence of his sister.


"Felix" called the mother as she stroked her little son's cheek. "Yes Mother," she replied very gently. "after your sister is born please take good care of her yes, you must promise me that you will love her with all your heart," said the mother with affection. Little Felix just nodded as an older brother of course he would look after and love the younger brother.


no matter how many months pass by now it is time for your child to see the world for the first time. however, unlike childbirth in general, the empress gave birth to be helped by some people whose aura seems very strange unlike humans in general or even not humans. in a dark foreign place with a thick aura that is very piercing.


"the noble one survives," said one of the maids there, the emperor who faithfully accompanied the wife did not show a happy face he was filled with worries that were so painful.


whether it had been the number of times the empress was on the verge of death for an ordinary human was not easy to give birth to mixed blood let alone this was not the first time she gave birth to a mixed blood.


some time passed until the emperor returned to the palace of Felix who was impatient and then ran to the room of the empress where the portal to another world was located, he ran regardless of his status as crown prince even though the mother scolded him he would not complain.


"mother!!" slowly the door opened the cry of the little Felix who was so loud that it made a silence after him, Felix was silent, his face was no longer cheerful, his countenance completely changed one hundred and eighty degrees after seeing the father who was holding his sister.


"dad where's mom?" felix said as he clenched his small hand.The emperor looked at his son with a sad look he tried to give his memory to the son. "father knew all this would happen but why don't you stop!! why!!!" felix's yelling made his father flinch.


"son," called the father. "why should I lose my mother? why?" ask Felix who has been sitting drowning in tears.


...


a few years passed now Felix was no longer a little prince he was able to stand tall beside the father with gallant and full of courage.he was perfect as a crown prince he was wise, he was wise, great in politics and military it's just that he's no longer open with anyone no one has ever seen his smile.


"the noble crown prince Felix Ludwig De Wisteria entered the room." hearing that name in the screams of a black-haired boy with green eyes running towards Felix made the ladies-in-waiting who took care of her panic instead of playing.


"his highness the prince wait!" said one of the ladies-in-waiting who was getting tired, "sister!" call the little prince to the true felix he is Alexiel Noah De Wisteria the younger brother of felix as well as the second prince of the wisteria empire.


*tock.tok.krieettt.


the door of the emperor's office opened revealing Felix who had turned fifteen years old he with his official clothes looked like a beautiful painting even so the artist forgot to enter the most important part of the smile and happiness is nowhere to be seen in Felix.


now the father and son sit face to face while enjoying a cup of hot tea to relax the atmosphere. "son, don't be too hard on yourself." Felix looked into the father's eyes, "i just did what I had to do, the human feeling just bothered." the emperor sighed for a moment, "Felix listen, listen, you are mixed blood unlike me you have half a human in you" the emperor told the son.


"i know the direction of this conversation, I can't do good or bad to the boy" Felix said. "Alex is your brother Felix!!" angry with the emperor, Felix's gaze was so sharp that it made the emperor's anger peak.Suddenly Felix's eyes also glowed red worthy of his father.


unlike the pure blood that did have fiery red colored eyes like the emperor his general half blood had his normal human worthy eyes and would turn fiery red when his emotions were disturbed.


"you forgot your promise to your mother? you promised to take care of Alex and love her" the emperor said, "that promise I made while she was still here and she made my mother go away from me, I could see the future but father did not prevent it." the emperor fell silent with Felix's statement.


although he looks calm but as a father he knows behind the calm nature of his son that he has thousands of needles that are ready to stab him at any time.


Felix turned his form into a red bird he flew freely without listening to the father who called him many times, with his current condition he could not enter the palace at least until his red eyes faded.


after awakening Felix little by little to train his ability he was given the ability in the form of fire control with familiar Phoenix-shaped. he flew so freely through the dense forest and flew with his other birds.


*jlebbb...


one of the hunters' arrows managed to stab Felix's right wing and make him fall and lay on the ground with an arrow that pierced his wing. little by little blood continuously flowing from Felix's wings makes it unable even just to change its original form.


"mom, I'm sorry I couldn't keep my promise."
