Marquess- you kids be careful

Azlynn- thank you father I’ll see you later 

Isaiah- she’s in good hands with 

They get in the carriage, Isaiah gives her flowers with a long small box on top Azlynn takes the flowers and opens the box 

Azlynn- I didn’t know you were going to give me a gift

Azlynn loved the teardrop neckless he got her and takes it out 

Azlynn- can you put it on me 

Isaiah- I’m be happy to 

Azlynn turns her back on Isaiah lifting her hair exposing her neck. Isaiah looks at her neck and blushes, he placed the neckless on her then kissing the back of her neck, Azlynn let’s go of her hair and turn back to Isaiah 

Azlynn- how does it look 

He holds the blue teardrop stone with his finger and thumb 

Isaiah- it matches your beautiful blue eyes and it’s looks lovely with your skin 

Azlynn blushed on how he said that, while holding the neckless. 

Azlynn- well that’s because you got it for me 

Azlynn kisses him on the cheek 

The carriage had  stopped, they arrived at the town square. Both stepped out of the carriage and entered a popular restaurant, one of Azlynn’s favorite.

Azlynn- great!, I’m starving 

Azlynn looks extremely happy , they got seated and Azlynn already knew what she wanted 

Azlynn- I’ll love the seafood here with the white wine 

Isaiah tried to stop her ordering the wine

Isaiah- instead of the wine why not try a orange mango drink it’s in season 

Azlynn caught what he was doing 

Azlynn- are you afraid I might jump you again? don’t worry ill control my self this time 

Isaiah got embarrassed because that wasn’t what he was talking about. he was thinking that she might be pregnant because of that night of the festival 

Isaiah- it’s too early in the day still, so we’ll get drinks none alcohol 

Azlynn pouts, time passed they finished their meals and order desserts to go,

As they were walking off to see the play at the main theater, Azlynn spots two kids on the street begging for food Azlynn walks to them.

Azlynn- hear you go you can have this 

Azlynn gives the desserts she had, Isaiah entered into a restaurant and orders food to go for the kids.

Isaiah- after you done with you food you can have desserts 

Azlynn looks at Isaiah seeing how cute he’s acting like he’s being a dad to them. Isaiah gives them money, then continue their walk. They’ve arrived at the theater, they found their seat on top balcony to see the play, a waiter entered the balcony room with Champagne,

Azlynn- ooo! Mind if I do 

Azlynn was about to grab it Isaiah stopped her

Isaiah- no

Azlynn- why not?

Isaiah- because we don’t know if it’s going to be harmful to you body

Azlynn- what are you saying? it’s only one

Waiter- I’m sorry sir, I didn’t know she was pregnant 

Isaiah glared at the waiter while Azlynn was glaring at him.

Azlynn- is this what your worry about?

Isaiah looks at Azlynn guilty.

Azlynn- don’t worry about that, haha! I took a contraceptive when I got home that day 

Isaiah paused, he look at a lost, thinking to himself how else was he going to keep her 

Azlynn- you wanted to get me pregnant? 

Isaiah- I...

Azlynn- we just met that night, why would you think I’ll pregnant?

Isaiah- please don’t be mad

Azlynn- yesterday you also said “you’ve been waiting long enough” when was the first time you met me 

Isaiah looks at her with a desperate look the feeling that she might leave him. He thinks of a way beat around the bush and not lie to her.

Isaiah- ** as long as she doesn’t know it should be fine**

Isaiah-I fell in love with you when I saw you.

Azlynn- then why would you think I’m pregnant 

Isaiah- because it was my first night 

Azlynn believes him but still skeptical, The lights dim down, they both look at the stage.

Azlynn- oh, the play stared 

They both lean back. while Azlynn watched the play Isaiah was looking at her facial expressions loveingly making sure she doesn’t notice.

The play finished, they were leaving the Theater the sun has gone down and it’s late at night.

Azlynn-Wow, that play was long *haha* .. hey is it ok if I crash at you place for tonight.

Isaiah- crash? That’s a funny way to but it but I love that 

Azlynn- yea, I’m having a fun time with you I’m not ready to end the day just yet, we can also share a room together.

Isaiah blushes of the thought of sharing a bed with Azlynn.

Isaiah- of course, you can stay.

They arrived at the Duke mansion, the maids and butlers were waiting for Isaiah at the door 

Isaiah- Get a bath ready for Azlynn and clean clothes to sleep and show her to my room.

Azlynn was taken to take a bath and change into comfortable clothes. Once she was done she enters Isaiah room, but he is not there so she wonders the halls. She see a door cracked open, she can hear Isaiah voice talking to someone she doesn’t recognize 

Isaiah- so you still haven’t found what language this is 

Unknown- no sir, they say this language is long forgotten

Isaiah- sigh* ... what are those books?

Unknown- while looking, I found two books of the same language

Isaiah - ???...

Unknown- how can she write A whole book worth in a language that as long forgotten?

Isaiah- I’ll ask her.

Azlynn peeks in and see Isaiah at his desk with a dark figure. She looks at his desk and sees her diary book that she wrote using her previous life language to re-write the story by memory.

Azlynn-** that’s my book! Why does he have it?!**

She freaks out and scurry back to the room, she shuts the door walking back-and-forth in the room upset biting her thumb nail.

Azlynn -** I need to leave I can’t be here**

She puts on her sweater and leaves the room. She finds a back door that leads to the side of the mansion. She steps out looking suspicious and heads to the woods, She has a strange feeling like someone is following her so she starts to run, a dark figure same as the one with Isaiah but looks different. The dark figure stops her.

Unknown- what are you doing sneaking around here?

Azlynn sees him clearly now he has black Armor on with a Black hooded cape covering him but still can’t see his face and a Fog like mist seen through his body like a ghost. Azlynn turns to run away from him. He grabs her wrist, as he grabs her to take her in the fog became solid, you can’t see through his body anymore.

Unknown- I don’t know who you are I have to take you in 

He puts Azlynn over his shoulder and takes her to Isaiah study 

Azlynn- LET GO OF ME!!!

Isaiah stand up upset.

Isaiah- what is the meaning of this Sky?

Sky- my lord I found this lady sneaking out through the back door and wondering through the woods

Fischer- sigh* you i***t she’s not some lady she the future duchess 

Isaiah goes to Azlynn to comfort her but Azlynn has an upset expression on her face towards Isaiah and demanding answers

Azlynn- w... What...Are they!? 

Isaiah- they are my shadow knights

Azlynn- Why are they like that all transparent and stuff!?!!!

Isaiah- let’s take a seat hear and have some tea, I have a total of three shadow knights, they all took an oath with my sword that’s why they have that ability...

Isaiah- why were you sneaking out?

Azlynn forgot about the book avoiding his question.

Azlynn- You!

Isaiah flinches nervously.

Isaiah-... yes?

Azlynn- why do you have one of my books?

Isaiah- one of my knights started investigating you without my authority, as he does with all people that meet with me. He’s heard you mention my name in that book and he took it and brought it back to me

Azlynn was upset that she was being investigated “like most people would”.

Azlynn- why didn’t you tell me 

Isaiah- I was going to tell to tonight. I wanted to ask about the book and the two other books we found 

Azlynn- what do you want to know and what other books?

Isaiah- the language in these books are long forgotten and no one knows what’s written in them, but you wrote a whole book with this language 

Azlynn looks at the shadow knights like she wants them to leave

Azlynn- can I see the other books you found?

Fischer Passes the books to Azlynn she looks at the books and notice that it’s from the same author Ava 

Azlynn- that’s interesting?..

A at Fischer was amazed that she knew how to read it

Isaiah- can you tell me how you know this language? 

Azlynn hesitates to tell him 

Azlynn- you might not believe me and think I’m crazy or something.

Isaiah- I won’t 

Isaiah said with confidence

Fischer- yea I’m really curious about is too 

Isaiah glares at Fischer 

Isaiah- both of you, out now.

Sky- yes my lord 

Fischer- Whaa!?? Why?

Azlynn- it’s fine with me if they stay 

Isaiah-.. ok 

Azlynn takes a deep breath clenching her dress with her hands nervously.. 

Azlynn- well to get to the point,... I remember everything in my previous life up to the point I died.

Isaiah looks surprised but knows she’s telling the truth, Fischer was amazed.

Fischer- that explains the language thing

Isaiah- yes, it does..

Sky- sorry for man handling you earlier..

Sky comes in to the conversation randomly.

Fischer- stupid, keep up with the Conversation, your so late... and weird. 

Azlynn started to read the book Judgment 

Azlynn- ....hold on.

She could believe what she was reading she grabs the other book of Disappointment 

Isaiah- what’s going on?

Azlynn started to tear up out of shock.

Azlynn- th.. this ... is talking about... how my world ended.

Isaiah Fischer and sky were startled on what she just said.

Azlynn- our world was full of Hatred and greed that part is true. They ended up having a world war four,  our god gave us one last chance and kept warning us to make peace. But the wars continued.

Azlynn- and our god abandon us and sent down heaven’s  angels to killed every living soul turning everything to dust to restart the world again, I’m my previous life we didn’t have monsters or magic none of that existed, the angels were the ones who released these monster in this world who they call creatures from heaven, To get rid of the survivors. Years passed the heavens have long forgotten about this world and the monsters multiplied. 

Isaiah- what do you mean?..

Fischer- chuckles* but, it’s just a book, like who know when it was written or someone who also knows about the language wrote it. 

Azlynn- the time stamps are here, and this book was written when I was alive in my previous life 

Isaiah is disliking that she’s destress because of the books so he was about to take the book but Azlynn grabs them back looking at Isaiah.

Azlynn- please let me finish reading them 

With a concern look on his face Isaiah gives in to her.

Isaiah- sigh* .. ok but if you can’t handle it please let me know 

Azlynn looks at Fischer.

Azlynn- Fischer where did you get these ,can you please look for more books of the same language please.. or if it’s a library can you take me to it?

Fischer glances at Isaiah and Isaiah inclined his head in agreement. 

Fischer- yes my lady 

Sky and Fischer vanishes off Azlynn freaking out

Azlynn- EEK!!!.. h~how did they disappear !?!

Isaiah- chuckles* they are no long human once they place their oath with me. My life is what keeps them living so if I die they die too but they still can get hurt like a Humans can. 

Azlynn- your sword can do that? 

Isaiah- it does other things too

Azlynn- like?..

Isaiah- I really don’t know clearly myself.

Isaiah looks at Azlynn in a lovely smile  

Isaiah- it’s getting late we should go to bed 

Azlynn- I’m sorry.. you have work tomorrow 

Isaiah- no

Isaiah immediate response he had a smile like he didn’t want to get caught lying.

Azlynn- I thought you had work

Isaiah- completely free 

They head to the room they both lay in bed and get ready to sleep, as the night goes on it starts to rain. Azlynn loves the sound of rain so she drifted off the sleep.

*** Azlynn dream*** 

She’s  walking in snow rubbing her arms to warm up, hearing the crunch of the snow and seeing her breath while exhaling 

Azlynn -it’s so cold why am I so cold 

Azlynn walks into water as soon as she touches the top of the water it turns into ice. She continues to walk on the ice she comes across a fairy sitting on ice in a fetal position, the fairy lifting her head nonplussed looking at Azlynn. The fairy became in a jovial mood.

Fairy- y-you finally found me..

Azlynn- I didn’t know I was supposed to look for you?

The fairy starts to worry for Azlynn.

Fairy- y-you’re going out of control you need to wake up 

Azlynn- what do you mean?

Fairy- i-if you don’t  control your fairy magic it will consume you

Azlynn- fairy magic?

Fairy- y-you will die like your mother did, 

Azlynn- ...my mother died because she was sick..

Fairy- s-she believed we were evil *tisk* the nerve of that woman 

The fairy started to shoo her away, Azlynn wasn’t thinking straight and getting extremely cold 

Fairy- y-you need to wake up NOW! if you die now with out having a child, I with die too I hope you know

Azlynn wakes up.
