Chapter 182: Upholding Her Principle
[NO!]
Alexandra shook that thought out of her mind. She cannot lose her freedom no matter what. If the choices her father made for her hurt her to this extent, how much will she lose if she leaves the choice with someone who hates her?
And to be trapped with someone she doesn’t like for an unspecified time will not be good. If, and that is a very big if... If Maximus is allowed to be with her, what kind of life will she lead with their life in front of Calantar? Will Calantar allow happiness in their life when she is very angry at her mother?
So, no. Even if Calantar keeps her end of the bargain and reverses time, she cannot willingly tie herself to Calantar.
"Taking about being free... Calantar, it must have been hard for you to be trapped in a small Orb for a long time," Alexandra spoke, calmly.
She didn’t want to be losing time talking with someone who didn’t keep up their end of the bargain. She wanted to provoke Calantar to respond.
Alexandra decided to fight Calantar. She won her once a long time before, and she can do it again. She suddenly thought of another plan.
Calantar’s face lost all the innocence she was trying to hold at that moment. That was her lowest point—to be trapped for ages in a small vessel, losing her magnificence little by little as time passed.
"How about the Brume Thicket this time?" Alexandra asked, cocking her head. "Or should I make you implode?"
If her beloved is no more, there is no reason for her to hold back. And if there is no way she could get everyone back, she is not going to let Calantar go the way she pleases. Calantar will suffer the same too.
"You nasty little mite dare to threaten me, The Giver of Light?" Calantar raised her voice. Her eyes became round and her eyebrows trembled out of anger. The wind that was blowing gained pace and started to spread darkness even more. The dark clouds above started to rumble and flashes of lightning jumped around in the sky.
"I do. Give my people back, or else..." Alexandra looked at Calantar.
