The Cruel Prince
Author by Natalie Ernison
Abed plans to marry Nathasya soon, considering that the two have known each other for a long time. This made Abed even more convinced that Nathasya was the woman who would become his wife in the future.
Abed gave Nathasya a choice, if she accepted then Nathasya had to kiss Abed's cheek. On the other hand, if not, then Nathasya must remove the diamond ring that is on her ring finger and place it in the brown box.
Suddenly there was the sound of someone stopping the conversation between Nathasya and Abed.
The whole room at dinner that time was very cold and the wind was blowing so hard, it made goosebumps goosebumps.
Abed gritted his teeth, Abed's eyes darkened and his face hardened as if he knew who the person who had stopped this important event was.
“Zakra!” Nathasya got up from her chair and immediately stood up with a trembling body, while Abed immediately grabbed Nathasya's hand and held it tightly. The grip seemed to give a code that everything would be fine.
“Bravo bravo…. It turns out that my little brother can't be underestimated just like that.. “ Zakra said with his eyes as sharp as an eagle, and his gaze directed towards Nathasya.
Hmm… Zakra tilted his head looking at Nathasya, as if that gaze really suppressed Nathasya. Nathasya tightly gripped Abed's arm with trembling hands.
All the restaurateurs sat still, and no one moved. Looks like Zakra has silenced the restaurateurs.
“What do you want?” said Abed with an aura that was equally gripping, and the atmosphere in the restaurant was getting colder and colder.
“Abed, why do you dare to hide my woman! are you tired of breathing air!” Zakra said while walking towards Nathasya and Abed.
Zakra focused on the ring that was wrapped around Nathasya's ring finger, his eyes darkened even more filled with a mist of anger that he was ready to vent.
“Abed, leave this woman to me!” Zakra said with an increasingly pressing aura.
Nathasya shook her head as a sign that she too did not want Zakra's presence.
“No! she's my wife!” Abed said firmly.
“Wife!” Zakra is getting darker. “What do you mean??”
“Yes, she is my wife. I hope it doesn't interfere with her life again!” Abed said firmly.
Nathasya tightened her grip on Abed and snuggled her face into Abed's chest, right in front of Zakra.
“Nathasya!! hurry back to me..!!” Zakra snapped while grabbing Nathasya's hand.
“Stop!!” Abed pulled Nathasya in his arms. Meanwhile, Zakra's bodyguards pointed a gun right at Abed's head. The point was from the four bodyguards.
“Sorry young master, but we are more obedient to master Zakra!” said the guards.
“Just try it!!!” cried Abed furiously. He was very angry to see Zakra's behavior which was always arbitrary.
“Abed! It's useless, this woman is only mine!!”
“No Zakra! she's human, she's not stuff! have no right to take it from me!” Abed looked more and more furious. His gaze fell on the four bodyguards earlier, and sent the guards bouncing against the walls.
“Free Abed! Don't make me act cruel!!” Zakra said with a threatening tone and increasingly pressing.
Nathasya continued to sob in the midst of her extraordinary fear.
“I really love this woman Abed! so let her go..” Zakra asked by weakening the gripping aura from him.
“No ! I will not allow you to hurt the woman who is very precious to me!”
Argh…. Abed screamed and made Zakra bounce against the wall as well.
“Looks like I have to use a tougher way on you Abed ..” Zakra said as he stood up and stepped by pointing his hand at Abed.
Greppp… Zakra gripped Abed's neck, and threw Abed's body very hard on the dining table and made the dining table fall apart.
Argh…. “Stop!!” Nathasya screamed hysterically when she saw Abed lying down covered in blood from his mouth.
“Don't know profit! How dare you take my woman!!” Zakra beats Abed more and more mercilessly. The two of them fought fiercely. However, Abed's wound was quite severe, blood kept coming out of his mouth and his face was getting more and more bruised.
“This time you will die by my hands brother!” said Zakra while taking the stance to give the final blow. But when he was almost there, Nathasya ran to hug Abed's body, and the hard blow hit Nathasya's body.
Uhkk… Nathasya widened her eyes when an internal force hit her and made her spit out blood from her mouth.
Argh…. Abed screamed hysterically and immediately hugged Nathasya's weak body.
“Nathasya...” Zakra staggered, he didn't expect his final blow to hit the woman he loved so much.
“Abed... I love you...” Nathasya said with difficulty she said the sentence, while grabbing Abed's face. Nathasya put her sincere smile on Abed, as if everything was over and closed her eyes slowly.
“No!” Abed screamed frantically, and was devastated. Slowly he laid Nathasya's body on the side and ran towards Zakra.
Bhuukk bhukk… He beat Zakra with his exhausted strength, and took a silver dagger from his leather jacket pocket which appeared suddenly, who knows since when the dagger was in his pocket.
Clukhhkk.... the silver dagger stabbed into Zakra's chest with one blow. With trembling hands, tears that hatched, and gnashing of teeth filled with anger.
“I'm sorry my brother, I love her ..” Zakra muttered then lowered his head.
Abed kicked Zakra in the face with a powerful kick.
Argh….. “Wake up Nathasya….” Abed screamed and cried profusely.
“Young master...” said Abed's bodyguards and hugged Abed's body with Nathasya and then disappeared with a gust of wind.
Meanwhile, Zakra's body was immediately brought by his guards back to his castle.
***
“Abed Residence Castle”
The two bodies of Abed and Nathasya lay stiffly in a coffin.
All of Abed's workers wept bitterly, and could not believe what had happened to their master at this time.

“Looks like the deep wound on this human girl's body is quite deep. A blow that can only be resisted by the dark nation but he must accept it, of course it is impossible if he can still be saved .. “ said the grandfather who is a healer in the supernatural world.
“Then, what about our young master, Master?” said the waiter and the guards.
“You have to sacrifice five virgin girls, and their blood is dripped in a container containing five kinds of flowers. Soak your young masters for a few days, and see if there is any improvement afterward. However, when your master begins to wake up, immediately give him fresh blood from a virgin girl,” said the supernatural healer.
“Yes sir, and what about that human lady?”
“If it's just a miracle that he can wake up again. Because only honest and sincere love will make her come back to her senses. If that human girl has a strong desire to live for the person she loves so much, that's her greatest strength...”
The servants of the castle immediately did what the healer had ordered. Even though this is against the master's principle, which is to sacrifice the lives of innocent humans, they must still do it.
“Young master, we beg you to wake up...” whispered his servants and continued to drip fresh blood from the virgin girls they had killed.
A container shaped like a bathtub with a sprinkling of five different kinds of flowers, and water that has turned to blood. Abed's body lay stiff and only his head appeared with a very pale face.
Meanwhile, Nathasya was laid in a crate, around the coffin red candles were lit and should not run out and no longer light up.
Something unexpected happened…
“Everyone save yourselves!!!” shouted one of the castle workers hysterically.
“What happened?” said the servant who was taking care of Abed and Nathasya.
“Outside the castle came a group of creatures in black robes and were destroying the front of the castle...” said the guard with a trembling body...
