The Woman Ruler of the Altan Clan

Chapter 90 The Rage of Eej

Shanum crossed the living room of his room with a huffed and sad face. His two best friends who were in the room frowned at each other. They looked astonished at Shanum's attitude. The girl passed by them just like that, as if unaware of the two being there.

"What happened to him?" whiskey Diva. Farah sniffed her shoulders while shaking. "Didn't he just send a message to meet with Taban?"

Farah rolled her eyeballs. "Geez, I don't know either, Diva! I was wondering the same with you. If you're curious let's go to his room and find out." Farah is waking up.

"No, no! Let Shanum alone first to rest. Tomorrow morning we ask him, " said Diva while holding Farah to sit back.

Farah sighed and said, "Okay, then I'll just go in the room. I want to immediately lay my body on the bed, already this sleepy."

"Yes, you go to the room first. I still have to contact my parents" replied the Diva.

Farah nodded her head while getting up, then stepped towards the room. Leaving the silent Diva in her place while sighing. "This time, let alone the one that befell you, Sha," Diva said in her heart.

Shanum stood in front of the open room window, looking up at the night sky. The girl had already cleansed her body and stood like that for fifteen minutes. His mind was raging, feeling a great storm was coming in his life.

In the days since he left for Astrakhan, his life changed. He went here in hopes of saving his beloved, his soul mate. But not only was his lover curable, the man also broke his heart into pieces.

Shanum felt his soul empty.

He wanted to be able to return to see Khan's warm gaze. He wanted to again have the opportunity to hear the gentle words of the man's lips, hear his words of love and reply with the same words. Also about how much he misses Khan. Missed to hear his laughter, without hearing the stiff phrase on his cold face, as it had always been seen on the man at this moment.

Initially the man's request to get to know him again had made him fly into the clouds. Makes her wish the man felt something about her. But it was suddenly destroyed in the blink of an eye, because of the arrival of his former lover's woman.

Indeed Shanum himself is confused, why does Sintai always appear in his dreams? Showing her a series of tortures, asking her to find him, while the woman can show up on her own and look healthy and fine. There were many things that did not fit in his mind right now about that woman.

Shanum is not naive enough to think that the woman intends to approach Khan again. And it doesn't matter if Khan doesn't lose his memory. The appearance of Sinting is arguably decorated with a Memorial sign! and Dangerous!

Shanum is not afraid to compete. He will try his hardest to keep his lover. All he feared was the end result, if Khan chose Sintai. He was unable to accept the shock of pain in his soul.

For a second a cold feeling ran through Shanum's back. Maybe he was wrong. Perhaps Sintai was right just to help Khan against the black magic owner's plot. No doubt he's messed up if that's what happened.

Shanum finally gave up. He went back to bed and laid himself there. The girl tried to close her eyes, remembering that she needed a break after a day of being attacked by the jolts of intense feelings.

When Shanum woke up, it was morning. He opened his eyes and saw the room bathed in sunlight. He seemed to have forgotten to close the window curtain last night. Shanum sighed, he felt alone. But just as he was thinking about it, a knocking sound rang out on the door of the room.

Shanum sat up straight and hurried to get up. He approached the door while occasionally yawning. Shanum opened the door, and found his two best friends smiling in front of him.

"You look fine this morning, not like last night. Your face is very tangled, like a shirt has not been ironed," Farah chirped with a grin.

Diva immediately elbowed Farah, grimacing. "Sorry, we're disturbing your sleep, Sha. But we've been very curious to hear about your adventure yesterday with Taban."

Shanum. "What?" Shanum's expression reflected a sense of wonder. "Who's on an adventure with Taban?"

"So you didn't go all day with him? Don't tell me you're together..." Farah stopped saying her words.

Shanum let out a tired sigh, then said, "Allow me to the bathroom first. You guys just wait in the living room while ordering breakfast." The two Shanum companions nodded and turned their bodies, they, immediately moved from the front door. Shanum closed the door again and headed to the bathroom.

After finishing the bath, he approached his two best friends who had been waiting on the sofa. Shanum took a seat next to Farah after making a cup of coffee for her to enjoy this morning.

The faces of his two best friends were full of question marks. Although curious, they waited for Shanum who started the conversation.

"Yes, I went to visit Taban in his office and I deliberately came there to meet with Khan. Taban just helped send the driver and drove me to the man's room" Shanum said with a flat expression. And the reaction of his two best friends is to gawk in shock.

"You met the man" accused Farah, as if it were a great crime. Shanum regained his senses from Farah and Diva's inexplicable yet predictable expression.

"Why can't I see him? He asked for it, and I wondered what he wanted to say to me."

"But that man hurt you." Diva replied with a soft tone of voice mixed with wonder.

Shanum straightened himself, displaying a dignified calmness in each of his pores. "It was my choice to meet him, and I had to be ready to accept the risks."

"I guess I can guess that guy hurt you again." Farah expected it accurately.

"So, what did he write at the meeting yesterday? Can we find out?" connect the Diva with the sound starting to soften. He felt pity looking at Shanum's groaning face when he heard Farah's guess.

Then Shanum recounted his encounter with Khan which started off well. Until finally the appearance of Sintai and Ula which causes a quarrel back between himself and Khan.

"Woman in your dream suddenly appeared?" Diva asked with an astonished expression. So too with Farah's expression.

"Yes. The woman appeared. And I don't know what it means all this time the dream existed" Shanum replied. The nausea made her stomach twine, cold bites up and down along Shanum's hands and feet. It cannot be destroyed. His future is long.

He's a fighter. Like his ancestors who had worked so hard to protect their entire descendants from slaughter. He will be fine, though confusion, sadness and pain will spin like a whirlpool of emotion within him.

"You still have us, Sha. We are always here to support you. Whatever your decision," said Diva patting Shanum on the back of her hand.

"Yes. He is worthless, and there is no need to fight anymore if his attitude hurts you more," Farah continued with an angry upset face.

"thank you. You are my best friends." Shanum hugged his best friend one by one with a smiling face.

"Let's have breakfast now. After this we go have fun to tourist attractions that we have never been." Diva said enthusiastically.

"Wait a minute, you haven't said how the result of your departure yesterday to Sergei's house. Did you meet him?" shanum Urge.

The happiness on the face of the Diva instantly receded. She shook her head. Shanum saw sadness re-emitting in the girl's eyes.

"He's not at his house, Sha. The housekeeper said Igei had not been here for two months. Because the man often disappeared for months, so they were no longer surprised to see him."

"Rubber, Diva. What Farah said was very accurate. You don't have to worry anymore. If it's done with the mission, Sergei will definitely contact you." Shanum also gives a comforting and comforting greeting to the Diva.

Diva nodded her head. Then Shanum stood up, he pulled the hands of his two best friends to go to the dining table. "Let's have breakfast."

The cloudy atmosphere that initially occurred turned into a happy laugh, when they enjoyed the delicious breakfast that the hotel had provided for them.

After breakfast, Shanum's phone rang loudly. The girl could already guess who the excited person contacted her this morning. As per his promise last night, Taban charged his explanation of yesterday's events. Shanum reluctantly repeated what he had explained to his friends.

Taban's reaction was quite astonishing. He said that Khan must be insane. It was clear that the woman had thrown it away like trash, now she had to let the woman approach her again.

Shanum did not reply with any other words except that Khan might still love the woman. Then he heard a loud snorting from inside the joint.

It seemed Taban thought Shanum's words just now were ridiculous. There is no way a man whose heart has been broken can still love the woman who has done the deed.

Their conversation finally stopped after Shanum begged Taban to take them around.Taban agreed, he would take the three girls to a tourist spot with a very beautiful natural scenery. The three of them were of course very enthusiastic, they immediately got ready to wait for the arrival of the man.

***

"Please come in, Miss. You've been waiting for." A man wearing a neat suit with a flat face escorted Shanum into a room. Shanum's thoughts swirled at a dizzying speed, there was no chance for him to digest any of them.

Three days later, after an argument with Khan, he suddenly called Eej who said that he wanted to meet Shanum. The woman sends the driver to pick her up and take her to a room in a different hotel than the one Shanum currently occupies.

After a cautious glance at the man in the suit, Shanum walked into the room and found Eej already sitting on the sofa in the room.

The woman smiled as she approached Shanum. He hugged the girl tightly. "Thank you for coming, son." Shanum smiled back, and hugged the woman.

Then Eej led Shanum to sit next to him on the large sofa in the room.

"Until when are you gonna stand there?" Eej turned to look at the figure of a man standing in front of the window in the room. Shanum did not notice before, as the position of the figure turned his back on them. Inevitably Shanum turned to see who the person Eej was reprimanding was.

The figure turned its body and Shanum looked at Khan with a shocked face. Didn't expect that man to be here either. They cast glances at each other that made Eej let out a pretty harsh dehumanization.

Shanum disconnected the eye contact first, then looked the other way. Khan came closer to them, he threw his buttocks on the sofa in front of Shanum. His face looked flat and cold again. It was as if the hot gaze he had just cast evaporated just like that.

"Good, now you two are here. I have something to say to you both. And I've also heard of your quarrels." Eej's expression instantly made Shanum nervous. The woman threw a scornful look towards her son. "You have completely forgotten your promise to me."

"It's not all his fault, Eej." Shanum's reply did not imply anything to Khan about how the girl really felt.

And although Shanum was undoubtedly telling the truth, he disliked the fact that he was rude enough to suspect Sintai without proof.

"Stay, he's the one who's guilty of Shanum. It's not proper for him to do that kind of thing to you who's a woman." Eej looked expectantly at Khan. "Isn't that right, my son?"

Khan sighs. "Yes, of course."

"good. Now I want to tell you that I don't agree that you're in touch with that woman named Sintai again."

"But me and him..."

"There is no objection. You should have spent more time with Shanum, because he should have been your partner here, not that woman. And next I want you both to go to Och City. You must bring Shanum to be introduced to the chairman of the council and the elders. I've helped convince them that you already have a partner, "Eej interjected with an unusual unwise attitude.

It was the first time Khan had heard that his mother could convince the elders and the colossal council. That means his mother managed to arrange a cancellation against the Selection process that should still be going on.

Despite the futile knowledge of arguing, Khan kept trying. "I don't have any relationship anymore with Sintai, Eej. Our relationship is now purely about finding the black magic owner's plot."

"But you let yourself follow that woman's will. For the last two days I know, you've been seeing that woman a lot and been busy driving her around. Don't you?" eej asked, his tone mixed between condemnation and determination as hard as steel.

"Eej knows I did it and I don't have much choice about it. We have to go together to track down the plotters" Khan replied, again for the same reason.

"In any case, Shanum is the one who saved your life and it's a shame the way you abandoned him while he was here. You weren't brought up to show such insolence."

"This is not a normal condition. I don't remember it. He's a stranger to me." Khan replied with an innocent expression.

"As you know, normal conditions are rare for our people, son. Don't make your Amnesia an excuse for you to do things that can hurt others."

"Okay, okay! He can come with me wherever I go. If need be she'll stay with me alone" Khan challenged. It's not a good idea. His mother must realize that.

"Why indeed? I'm sure you won't be seen in a suspicious position. It would be very good for your image if viewed with a companion after the Selection process is stopped. They must have believed after seeing that you've chosen a partner for yourself."

"But the black magic cabal will come after Shanum."

Shanum was stunned to hear Khan's words. It turned out that the man was trying to keep his distance from her after Sarnai's arrival because he wanted to protect her. But is it really like that?

"You don't have to stand up like that as if trying to protect Shanum." Eej stared at Khan sharply.

"Just tell me frankly that with the woman's arrival you're reminded of how you feel about her. If my guess is correct, then you're stupid, son. The woman has hurt your heart, when you want to fall back into the same hole," Eej said furiously.

Khan was not sure which was more troubling to him, his mother's words or the fact that Shanum clenched his hands tightly in his lap with a stiff expression.

"I can't go back to Sintai, Mother. Our relationship has long since ended." Khan turned towards Shanum, no matter if his mother understood his thoughts. I don't know why Shanum's feelings are more important to him at the moment.

Shanum tried hard to set his face into an emotionless mask. However, it did not hide the deep wounds in the girl's glistening black eyes. Especially from Khan.

Khan moved towards Shanum, triggered by the unbearable need in his heart to remove the pain in the girl's gaze. "Goddessa..."

"Don't." Shanum raised his hand. "Whatever you think you need to say, don't. Even though I appreciate Eej's concern for me, I don't want you to feel like you owe me a life or anything that comes to your mind. We stick with the original plan, severing the soul ties that exist between us."
