Chapter Seven

’Can you take me home ‘’she asked politeky again and one more time , the male imp spoke of marriage .I didn’t have to do this but it’s the only way ,She thought to herself before landinga huge knock on his head .

‘’What the, you how dare , what ….What is wrong with you ‘’ he spoke stammering in confusion with his head rubbing his head.

‘’I had no choice ok. You were really wasting my time.’’ She replied in stubbornness and he glared at her with a ll his might.What is wrong with her , he thought to himself .No one knocks a guard in the city because they know it’s suicide , for them and he wasn’t just a guard. He only tok position to run away from his father’s blabbering .

‘’You are crazy miss .Really crazy .Do you go to the gym or what.Your hands weigh more than a hundered killos.’’ He complained as he pointed his five fin covered fingers towards her Vespar watched him and guilt arose in her .Why wa she born stubborn and troublesome .Her mom or dad wasn’t even like .In fact from how she knows them, they rather take much precaution to prevent trouble.

‘’Look gate keeper ,I don’t regret it ok. I asked you to take me home yet you kept on saying you will marry me.’’she said trying not to show the guilt in her voice. The merman was pissed at her behavious .’’Take yourself home,Ifnot thenconvince me to go with you .’’he said and smirked wickedly .The lady imp glared at his childish ways.she sighed in defeat and decided to convince .

‘’I will convince you by using the sex manner to entertain you’’ she said and his lips spread across his face so broadly.

‘’Go on’ he ushered her and just couldn’t wait for the next step .He wondered if she will request a private cave or just an open hideout.

‘’Iam the brace warrior of Thetia , kneel before me dirty rat else my sword will slice through you head.’’he asked with authority .She paused and held her waist as her tail floated midway up.

‘’I’m convincing you.Through the sex way ‘’ she replied with boldness and his mouth dropped open .How was this sex. Wasn’t she supposed to touch him places?Few minutes ago ,he was filled withanxiety .Thinking a woman wull touch and kiss him for the first time.

‘’You do realize that your mode isn’t related to the actual word you just mentioned ‘’. Frustration swallowed him up as he spoke .Vepar glared yet wondered if she did any mistake.

‘’That’s impossible .I did the right move .Perhaps I spoke too manly .I will try reducing my voice.’’The young guard was on the highest level of train turblance .

‘’Just shut up. Shut up .What does sex mean ‘’He asked her waiting for an answer but his world came falling down ones she smiled lovingly to speak .His counscience already concluded that she didn’t know what inimate was.

‘’Sex is gender stupis .You are so dumb.Hash.I’m just wasting my time on you .my mom would be worried sick by now.’’

‘’What’s your name miss and how old are you ?’’He asked her and she placed her finger on her cheeks to think.

‘’My name is Vespar and I think I’m one hundred and twenty years .’’she said innocently and he melted .

‘’Well I’m Zeus , five hundred and five years old .i’m elder so you better respect me vespar. Who even gave you that name, you can’t control the oceans , parents just keep forcing their kids to be something they are not .’’His beginning statement agered her .However ,his latter words aught her off guard .She wondered if his parents ruled over his life .She also wondered if he was prevented from being free just like her.

‘’Yes I’m not free .i have may duties on my shouldres . We are still looking for a thief in the kingdom. ‘’He replied making er gasp.

‘You use magic .Oh my you really use magic .You just read my mind .’’she blurted out and he was surprised that she realized it .No one would have known it was mind reading magic ‘’ she blurted out and he was surprised that she realized it .No one would have known it was mind reading magic. Thy all would have called him a psychological genius.

‘’You are a pretty smart little imp.But like I said we have to find the thief .It’s been hundred and twenty years since the incident occurred but they just give up ‘Zeus spoke and Vepar found it strange it connected to her age.

‘’How did you know I used magic ? Do you use magic .’’he swma closer ensuring his breath reach her skin .She didn’t want to tell him she did because it got her in trouble today.

‘’Magic , how will I get magical abilities while no one has .Are you perhaps a dark sorcerer .My mother said magic is prohibited here.’’ He smiled at her cuteness before he spoke again .

‘’What did the thief steal?’’Her curios mind wondered but just before he was about to reply they heard guards approaching.

‘’It isn’t safe for you here.’’Zeus pulled her by grabbing her wrist before swimming very fast to th secured spot of camouflage .Her cheeks turned red by his touch and the fact tha , he just risk his duty as a guard and saved her instead , however Vespar just wouldn’t accept to be a normal girl .She elbowed him and swam off.

‘’Seriously little imo ,this is the way you repay me ?’’She heard Zeus voice from the distance and swam faser .Her face had turned extremely bright red and she didn’t want anyone to see her that way.Luckily for her , a familiar cave appeared infront of hr eyesight and she instantly recognized it as her hom .

Inside of the cave ,Adella sat ona safe –loke rock .Looking confused and worried .She specifically told Vespar to swim home yet she found no trace of her here .Her husband wan’t yet back from the sea patrolling and she knew if he was , his heart might even fall out because of the pain of losing his only daughter.

‘’Swim home ,just swim home honey , you jst couldn’t do that.’’she plundered over and over shile changing the room temperature to be hot unknowingly.

‘’Oww.my skin burns in here , mom where are you .’’That voice made Adella have tears. The cute voice that kept her happy all these years.

‘’Vepar,where have you been .I was so worried abut you and….and why did you leave me. You left me to cry this way .I don’t know what I will do without you.’’ Her lips ran it out and her little imp felt super guilty .If only she wouldn’t have entertained hat stupid Zeus ,then her mom wouldn’t have been this worried.

‘’I lost my way to come but luckily I guess swimming hopelesslu around can help you find a way .’’she quickly hugged her mother and used her palm to tap Adella’s back slowly and softly.

Zeus held his left arm regretting that he just helped an ungrateful imp. If any of the guards were to see her they would have arrested her .The royal treasury was a not a place to be for any citizen yet she got lost here .He sighed and returned back to the treasury gate only to meet five guards along with his father.

‘’Zeus where have you been ,son you shouldn’t leave a position you fought to have and be somehwre else. You will no more do this Job, intead you wil stay with your father and be a reasonable prince .’’ the little beautiful imp caused .She just showed up and lost her way suddenly.

‘We have aroyal gathering tomorrow.Someone was seen practicing magic .Since she’s not of Royal blood the law classifies that as forbidden .’’the king spoke again and Zeus eyes brightened .He was glad that apart from him , someone else had magic .Even his father doesn’t know he has magic and the whole kingdom classified the current royal eneration as unfortunate.

‘’Father ,isn’t it a good thing .Within all these centuries we tried magic yet no one had it .It shoudn’t matter if it is or no royal blood .Besides , the memered is still our citizen who trusts us.’’ ….Zeus tried to convince his father to understand indirectly that he wanted a fellow magica imp.

‘’We shall see hoe the matter escalates in court .’’His father spoke final and strong words before taking him back to the palace .

Adela sat in the dark ,wondering how to disclose the news of reporting to the court to Vepar .Anxiety crept within her and she felt the water begin to get hot .Fear gripped her and she swma out of the cave .Sh wondered if she was th cause .She wondered if she had magic , But in all her life she had never experienced magic .Perhaps , this ignition was derived from vepar .Vepar had perfomed strange magic .But in all her life , she has never experienced magic .Perhaps , this ignition was derived from Vepar.This only meant her little imp was a royal. Even though she stole the clamshell from the treasury , her mind didn’t conclude it belongs to the roayal family .

She saw her husband from afar swimming with an angry aura which made her enter back into the cave.

‘’Adella, Adella . Did they take them Ade….He alrmed through out the cavein worry.

‘’Vepar is asleep reduce your voice or you might just wake her up .I know why you are worried ‘’she said calmly to him and his anger pounded his chest profusely.

‘’Do you ,our daughter is just too beautiful for the sight of other mermaids yet you took her to the market.I was working when someone came informing everyone that he saw a pink goddess at the market place .He also said she did magic .Why didn’t you tell me she can do magic .’’=They both laughed frustrated and she couldn’t find words in her mouth.
