Matt POV's
That night I went back to Leah's place. Anthem and Rue asked me to talk back to Lea about the misunderstanding I had with her.
After I thought about it, it was true that they said that I should become an adult. Because when I decided I wanted to marry Lea, I should have thrown away the things she didn't like.
And if I think back, from the beginning I knew Leah, she always understood I didn't understand her. He understands my job as a mobster and he's not at all afraid of it he's getting closer to me and taking me out of the dark net.
Then when I was converted, I was again attacked by a mob and once again at that time Lea understood my position and even she sacrificed her life for me.
I don't think it's fair to ask her to come back to understand and understand my pleasure when we get married. I should have understood his wishes, right?
Therefore, when Anthem and Rue invited me back to talk to Leah I agreed. And now here I am with Leah.
I'm not just apologizing to her, I want to ask her to get married, and then live with me. I don't care where we're going to stay, as long as I'm with Lea I think things will be nice.
"Hi, I'm coming again. I hope you don't throw me out and throw me down from this top because I'm sure no one will catch me" I told Lea.
I'm trying to talk to her casually, I mean not to be too serious. Because I was afraid that I might get the wrong word again and he threw me back from up here down.
What is clear is that if you throw me back, I will die and maybe this novel will end today instead of the end of the month. Because this writer is being pursued so I should be able to persuade Lea to marry me, right if she wants this novel to end happily.
"What's your purpose here again? Angry me? Piss me? Or just want to test my patience?" lea asked, he looked at me with annoyance.
"I want to apologize to you for what I've done and what I just did and maybe what I'll do. When I decided to marry you 2 years ago then I thought I should have been prepared with all the consequences I would have. But as it turned out, I threw away my commitment and rejected all the consequences I should face" I explained to Lea.
I hope he understands. Ah, I'm still asking for permission from Leah. What kind of a man am I?
"So you still want to marry me?" ask Lea.
I nodded with certainty. "Of course I want to, you're the only love of my life" I replied. It's not an appeal, but it's a statement that comes out of my heart.
Actually I'm a romantic guy, but since I have to be a mafia here so I have to be a little fierce, right?
"You love me? Then why are you so easily instigated by Hades? And why did you lose control of yourself, Matt?" ask Lea again.
I'm speechless. "If I'm honest, I don't know. Hades' influence was huge in my life. He knows what I want, and he knows my deepest desires" I replied.
"What is your wish? May I know, Matt? When you changed like yesterday, I felt like I didn't know you, you were so far away and I couldn't reach you" Lea said.
I'm down. "My desire to gain power is still very great. And I thought I could take control of the city we live in and make it my headquarters then I thought of gathering people as my men later. Hades knew of my desire so much that he kept clinging to me and demanding me to fulfill all his desires. It was hard to resist, Lea," I replied, once again asking for understanding from Leah to re-understand me.
I shook my head. "No. All I ever wanted was for you to forgive me and teach me to be able to resist all my desires that might appear to satisfy me or harm you later," this answer came out from within my deepest heart.
I don't want to harm Leah later or whenever she's immortal I don't want to harm her or harm me because surely she'll try to save me like she's been doing all this time.
"Do you promise not to do it again, Matt?" Leah asked again.
"Well, I promise," I replied solemnly.
"And what can I do to you if you break your promise?" ask Lea. This time he handed his sentence to myself if I broke the promise I made today.
"You can turn me into anything you want and you can give me to the predators or you can throw me from up here or even from the Lord's place and don't let Anthem or Rue catch me," my answer.
Lea's pinky finger glowed reddish and she stuck the glowing pinky finger onto my little finger and instantly a red glow emanated from the link of our finger.
"I've bound you, Matt, and if you break you will die even if you are immortal if you break this covenant you will still die" Lea said.
His eyeballs turned into metallic blue marbles and he looked at me sharply. And his gaze pierced through my heart so I could feel the pain he was feeling right now.
"All right, I promise," I said.
After I said my promise, the reddish light glowed even more and then just disappeared. I felt the heat all over my body as Lea released the link of our fingers.
Soon the voice of Queen Edwina aka Mother Lea called us from a distance.
"Lea, take met to dinner together. Your corn crab soup is ready. Be quick to eat while it's still warm" Queen Edwina said.
Lea hurried to her feet and took me to her place. Upon our arrival, King Wren and Queen Edwina were waiting for us at a long dinner table. Rue, Anthem and Alesya smiled at our arrival.
After eating together, Anthem took me around. I know what he's doing to take me around for.
"Before you ask, I've finished it. And I made a deal with Lea, if I broke that deal then I'd be dead" I said.
"You know that Leah's parents love you so much, so do the Rulers. They tried you by sending Hades to you. Not only will you be raised to be their son, Matt, but you will also be made a successor to King Wren later" Anthem told me.
I was surprised to hear Anthem's words. "What! The king? Me? You're crazy!" I nodded my head. That's the silliest thing I've heard all day and imagining me being a king is impossible.
