Mr. Dimitri's Toy
S2 - Life Paid

“You have to save a woman named Gwendolyn.”

Kiara scrunched her forehead. “What do you mean save? What happened to this woman named Gwendolyn?”

The old woman with the wrinkled face looked around her before telling her everything. Gwendolyn was kidnapped by a vampire named Magnus. He was hidden somewhere and because Gwendolyn was a human, his memory was likely erased.

Kiara's task is to bring Gwendolyn back home to the Sheadore Kingdom safely.

“How, Princess? Can you cover it?“ hecate asked as Kiara remained silent.

Kiara suddenly laughed. “What? Vampire?” He doesn't believe Hecate's story.

“I'm not kidding, Mr. Princess.”

Kiara bertehem. Nothing made him laugh like this for a long time. “So you want to attack this vampire with my soldiers?”

“Not, Princess. Your soldiers won't be able to defeat Magnus. But you yourself have to go to Magnus.” castle

From Hecate's face, the woman was very serious.

“See. I can't just trust your words. Sorry about what happened to Gwendolyn. But I can't leave the kingdom in a time of crisis like this. After all, not necessarily you can really cure Cyrus.”

“Take me to Prince Cyrus and I will prove it to you.”

Kiara thought for a moment. Can he believe what this old lady said? What if he wanted to harm Cyrus?

“You just calm down. I want to save Gwendolyn just as you want to save the Crown Prince. Winter will continue this year.”

“Good. But if anything happens to Cyrus, you will suffer the consequences. And don't think you can run away from this castle.”

“Who is he, Kiara?” ask Cyrus weakly. He sat by the window, for the sake of getting a little sunshine.

“Hecate. He'll cure you, Cy.”

Cyrus groaning. “I'm sick of trying all the drugs. No one can cure me.”

“If not tried, we know whether it can be cured or not.” Kiara.

Hecate took out a small bottle containing a blackish-green herb from the pouch of his robe. “Drink this and the red rash on your skin will disappear.”

Before Cyrus drank it, Kiara sniffed the scent of the potion first. It smells like an ordinary herbal orbat and does not sting.

“Come on, Cy.. You said you wanted to ride and hunt with me. I promise once you're healed, we'll do everything you want. How?”

Cyrus wrinkled her face then with a single gulp, the potion was depleted. Everyone was waiting for something.

Slowly, Cyrus got up from his chair and stepped forward. Kiara wants to help him because Cyrus is still weak. He should be helped to walk. Cyrus refused.

“I feel... My body is better than before.” Then Cyrus lifted his sleeves up. “See! That ugly red rash was gone! I'm cured!”

Kiara did not believe that the Hecate herb was so potent. Cyrus' skin improved in an instant like she never got sick. Cyrus's face was also slowly not as pale as before.

“You're cured! You're finally cured, Cy!” Kiara hugged Cyrus and cried.

“Thank you, Hecate. Thank you for healing Cyrus.”

“I want to go outside now.” Cyrus was already impatient to step on the ground again. He's been in this room too long.

They accompanied Cyrus to the royal grounds. Kiara did not stop smiling seeing Cyrus so happy to be able to run, feeling the wind.

“I've proven that I can cure Prince Cyrus. However the herb will only last a while.”

Kiara widened her eyes. “What?! You said—“

“Besok Cyrus will again hurt because the dose I made was the lowest dose.”

Clenching her hands, Kiara refrained from screaming. “You lied, Hecate!!”

“No. I can indeed cure Cyrus if the dosage is made accordingly. He could have escaped the disease. But it will I give after you bring Gwendolyn to me.”

Kiara's breath is hunting. How presumptuous Hecate had given Cyrus false hope! What will Kiara tell Cyrus tomorrow? He must be confused if the pain suddenly relapsed again.

“How dare you!” hissing Kiara.

“Nyawa paid for life, Princess. Didn't we have a deal?”
