The Alien King's Alluring Obsession

Edna

Killian's free arm moved. His hand landed on the netted iron bars.

Before I could blink twice, Killian had torn the iron bars open. The way he did that action was like it was a piece of cake.

I knew that wasn't the case though.

He came into my cell.

"Edna." He called me softly.

My feet moved closer.

Killian's arm shot out before wrapping around me. In an instant, I was encompassed with his warmth.

His scent rushed into my nostrils. Some of the tension in my body faded away.

I felt refreshed. Tears burned my eyes. I blinked rapidly to stop them from making marks on my cheeks.

"K-killian, I m-miss you s-so much." My voice shook as I spoke.

"Heartbeat." Killian called.

"Yes." I replied.

"Heartbeat." He said again.

"I am here." I responded.

Somehow, it felt like Killian wanted assurance that my presence wasn't a dream.

Killian kept calling me over and over again. I kept replying. I could understand this feeling. Getting what you lost after going through unimaginable pain can humble anyone.

My heart banged against my ribcage violently.

I moved my head so I was looking up at him.

"Killian, how did you find me?" I asked.

Killian didn't look okay.

Regret and pain bit at the edges of my heart.

"You don't have to worry about that. What matters is that we are together again." Killian replied.

I shook my head, "No, Killian. I need to know."

Killian didn't speak for a few seconds. I didn't urge him. I waited patiently for his

answer.

"I used a bit of my blood and lifeline to track you." Killian finally opened his mouth to respond.

My eyes widened.

What did he just say?

Was my ears playing a trick on me?

I settled my eyes on his face. I wanted to see a hint that he was joking.

I was willing to accept anything but the words he just said.

Unfortunately, Killian's face was stern.

He wasn't kidding.

"W-why would you do that sort of thing?" I asked.

Panic weaved through my words and voice.

I knew those two things Killian mentioned were extremely important.

Those two things weren't something that Killian was supposed to touch.

I would prefer it if Killian spent more time in the process of finding me than he losing important bits.noveldrama

Killian sighed, "I had no other choice. I couldn't find you. I was going crazy. Don't worry, this sacrifices is not as huge as you think. If I can get you back, the sacrifice is always worthwhile."

The tears I had been trying to hold back finally rolled down my cheeks.

"Killian, y-" I started but a sob interrupted me.

Killian was flustered.

Vitality surged into his whole being because of his panic.

"Edna, Heartbeat. Please, don't cry." He said, "I am fine."

"You are not fine." I said, "Killian, you are not okay."

My hand landed on his face.

"Look at your face. These black marks weren't here before. How can you tell me you are fine when you are like this?" I questioned.

"Heartbeat, these marks will go away soon. Don't worry, I am not going to die. I still have a long life to spend with you in my arms." Killian replied.

"Killian, I wanted to ask about something. You gave me a mark before I landed on this planet but it didn't work. It just started working a few hours ago." I questioned.

Killian had a thoughtful look on his face, "I used my powers, blood and lifespan to pinpoint your location a few hours ago. I think that is why the mark activated. I don't know why it stopped working. Let me see your neck."

I tilted my head to the side so he would have a good look.

Killian leaned downwards. His hot breath sprayed on my neck.

My neck started to heat up.

I had to use all my willpower to stop myself from flinching.

"Did

I you find anything?" I asked.

I had to open my mouth to say something.

The quiet environment along with the heated breaths spraying on my neck was doing

strange things to my mind.

"I think your human bloodline was reacting badly to the mark so it didn't work.

Besides, there is something else keeping the mark from working. Something is blocking your powers and it is rendering all other supernatural elements in your body almost useless." Killian said.

"I think this anklet is what you are talking about. One of my captors locked me up with this anklet so I wouldn't be able to escape. My powers worked a few times under

pressure but it was not dependable." I said.

Killian's eyes looked downwards.

"Raise you leg." He said.

His arm fell away from my body.

I followed his instructions.

Killian's large palm wrapped around the anklet on my leg.

"I think this anklet is part of the reasons why I had a hard time finding you." Killian

whispered.

His fingers tightened before glowing strangely.

Before my eyes, the anklet that had tormented me day and night melted into nothingness.

As the anklet disappeared, red vines spouted.

A relieved sigh slipped from my lips.

My eyes settled on the third person in the cell. Killian and I had ignored him because

of the joy of our reunion.

A gloating light appeared in my eyes.

I couldn't help it.

Killian followed my pointed gaze.

When his eyes landed on King Ricard, his demeanor became colder.

Killian's fingers tightened and King Ricard struggled to breath.

I won't lie, it was nice to see someone that was hellbent on making my life miserable getting trampled upon. I wasn't a saint. I felt like Killian had addressed my grievances. It was a good feeling.

"King Ricard, if you had behaved like the monarch you are, we wouldn't have to get to

this point. Sadly, you insisted on going your own way." I sighed in a pretentious

manner.

Killian released his fingers a little.

"It was a misunderstanding." King Ricard apologized.

My eyes chilled.

This wasn't a misunderstanding. If King Ricard was the one in Killian's position, he

would not just stop at choking my man's neck.
