The Devil's Cursed Witch-Chapter 391 Let’s Have Kids

"You would not say it if you had seen me how I lived there," Ember countered, "After my nanny died, I was worse than any wild creature you can ever find in the worst condition." She put her head back on his chest as tears rolled down her eyes. She remembered those days after she buried her dead nanny.

Draven felt something moist and warm on his skin and he knew his mate was crying. He didn't want to stop her from talking and wished to know how she lived alone.

"Was it too difficult?" he asked. freℯ𝓌e𝚋𝐧𝘰vℯl.𝐜𝚘𝗺

She nodded lightly as Draven heard a slight sob. "It was really difficult... I didn't have anything to eat or drink. I was alone and scared... I could not go to human villages even to get anything as they would have killed me the moment they had seen me. I survived eating whatever was left in the cave, having only a few bites everyday and starving the rest of the day and night... When I didn't have anything, I....." her sobs increased, "I even had a bite of rotten wood which I could not even swallow. I...I had nothing to eat...It felt so bad and helpless...I felt like dying..."

Draven held her closer to comfort her as his hand continued to caress her arm. He lowered his head and made her look at him. He wiped her tears and pecked on her forehead gently. "I wish I could have come to you sooner."

Once she was calm, she said again, "When there was a fire on that mountain, I ran to save myself from it but...finally there was a moment I gave up and wished to die. I thought it was better to die than to live such a life. Though that fire felt scary and being burned to death felt scarier, it was nothing compared to how desperate I was to end all that suffering.

"I gave up on the promise I made to my nanny that I will do my best to survive and I stopped running away from that fire. I simply waited for that fire to reach me and burn me. But I guess there was still some hope inside me to save myself as if I was waiting for some miracle to happen... and... you came to save me," she looked at him questioningly, "But how did you reach that far from Agartha? Were you just randomly traveling?"

He shook his head, "I was summoned there."

It surprised her, "Summoned? Who summoned you?"

"Maybe it was you."

"I? I didn't even know you."

"I know, but it happened. I was summoned to save you, though I don't know how?"

"That's strange," she commented. "Whatever the reason, I am glad you came to me. You must have found me so strange, didn't it?"

"I was more puzzled about why I was summoned," he answered.

She heard him and said again, "When I came here, it was my first encounter with any living being other than just my nanny. I had never seen any man before, you were the first one. You must have been annoyed with me seeing how I was. I was scared and I didn't know what would happen to me here. I was more like a scared animal who was seeing the outside world for the first time and everything felt unfamiliar and strange."

"Not an animal but you were like a new born child who was seeing the world for the first time. I could understand and never compared you to those who had lived civilised life in the society among people," Draven corrected her, "If you compare to the lifespan of supernaturals, you are still a child."

"Child?"

"Do you remember Xeno?"

"That kid?"

"Hmm, he is the same age as you. Two decades old."

"Yeah, I know, But I am not a child now."

"Now you are not, but then you were. I am proud that you learned everything so quickly despite spending life away from society. No one can tell how you have spent your life."

"Really, but I still feel like I don't understand many things and get excited over any single thing like a silly one," she said and stopped suddenly.

"What happened?"

She put her head back on his shoulder, "I know I am still not like a lady and still so immature while you are so good for me. Will you ever think I am not good for you?"

"I won't. As I said, I know you are like a new born child who is still learning and will take time to understand things."

"I hope I will learn everything faster so I won't embarrass you. I feel like I finally got a family here which I longed for and I want everything to be like this. I got you- my husband, a mother like Leeora, Erlos feels like my sibling, my pet Ray, I even got a very good friend Morph. I want all of you with me always and I can keep feeling like having a family and friends. I never ever had a friend before."

Draven paused for a moment and asked, "What do you think about Morpheus?"

"Morph? Uhm?" she thought and replied, "he was the first one after Leeora who was good to me and made me feel comfortable in this place which I thought to be strange at that time. I don't know why, but I always felt comfortable with him as if I always knew him and he was not new to me. He is a very good friend who cares for me and as you said before that to trust him only, I really do trust him. With him, I can be the way I want and I don't have to think about behaving myself. I can annoy him however I want. Maybe this is what they say having a good friend in life."

"Hmm," was what Draven replied only to hear her, "But..." she frowned.

"Hmm?"

"When he asked if I have not met you and I had to get a mate for myself then what would I have done."

"What did you answer?"

"I told him I would have him as my mate but he..." she frowned angrily.

"What did he say?"

"He didn't reply," she said with annoyed frown, "he doesn't think I am worthy of being his mate. That annoying eagle, couldn't he have lied to make me feel good at least. I really hate him."

Draven chuckled at her anger and continued to caress her shoulder. He knew the reality but didn't say it to her.

"But I have you, and I don't want anyone else Draven. We are always going to be together," she said and raised her head to look at him, "Let's have kids soon. I will show that annoying eagle that I need no one and I have the best mate a female can have and even have my own family. What do you say?"

He offered her a gentle smile, "As you say."
