Mated To The Cruel Prince novel Chapter 505

Chapter 505: Last Wish

Islinda didn’t think she would come to relax in the company of Gabi but her presence was so welcoming and the human was a good storyteller.

"So according to my grandmother...." Gabi started her story which Islinda listened to with rapt attention, the both of them seated across from each other while Prince Wayne had his own seat, of course. "After war between the humans and Fae came to a ceasefire, there was great devastation left in its wake. Famine and disease wrecked the land and my grandmother watched her loved ones drop dead and knew sooner than later, it would be her fate too. "

"However, my grandmother was a resilient woman. Rather than succumb to the hunger and plague destroying her small village, she would rather die under the sword of the enemy. So she communicated her thoughts of crossing the shimmering walls to her family. Of course, they rejected her and called her a madwoman for even suggesting the thought. To them, Fae were monsters and they wouldn’t rather die here, if it was the will of God, than cross over to that abominable land.

"She was just as young as we were when she sneaked out of the village at night and approached the divider. While the divider serves to prevent our kind from passing over, it turns out it wasn’t exactly infallible considering the limitation doesn’t apply to the Fae, or perhaps my grandmother was a goddamn lucky woman." Gabi laughed at the thought.

It was at moments like this that Islinda couldn’t help but point out similarities between Maxi and Gabi. It pleased Islinda to know that she had a type — free-willed and a tendency to curse a lot. Maxi was going to like her. However, Islinda knew the possibility of Gabi and Maxi meeting was zero. She wouldn’t dare to bring the human into her twisted fate with Aldric.

Her attention shifted back to Gabi’s storytelling.

"My grandmother bravely crossed the divider and came into the Fae realm of her free will, unlike plenty of others who were tricked into servitude for the Fae."

Islinda felt her stomach do a summersault at that statement. That sounded a lot like her. However, she composed herself and listened to the story.

Gabi said, "Those were hard times. If you think the Fae are prejudiced towards the humans, it was way more brutal then. Humans were practically treated like slaves in the Fae and many died. But my grandmother seemed to have been blessed by the gods because she strived and eventually settled with my grandfather, a slave. Their union brought about my mother which is very much clear considering I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for the reason of their coitus. "

Islinda went red in the face. Why does she keep on making friends with the brazen ones?

Gabi sighted the flushing of her cheeks and busted into laughter," Your innocence is so cute. But it would do you no good in this realm or around my grandma if you get to meet her one day. She does not hold back in her stories and tainted my innocence before I was eighteen. She is lovable being though and misses my grandfather every day. The gods bless his soul. "

"I’m so sorry for your loss." Islinda sympathized.

Gabi shrugged, "Don’t be. The poor bastard died twenty years ago, that’s enough time not to feel anything."

"How old is your grandmother?" Islinda inquired out of curiosity. freewebnovel-cσ๓

"About eighty years old."

Islinda was awed.
