Startled by his sudden aggressiveness, Cedric started to get little worried about Ayra's safety. He wanted Ayra safe and sound. At the same time, he didn't want Debisa to get hurt by Ayra's powers. He had witnessed her powers last time and understood that his wife had two personality. One was the calm and sweet whilst the other was terrifically dangerous that was enough to kill few dangerous creatures like Debisa.

But Debisa was adamant to behave recklessly today. When Cedric didn't let him approach Ayra and used various ways to threat him, Debisa was annoyed and angered at the same time over Cedric.

​​

In his anguish of wrath, he failed to determine who was standing in front of him. His sharp claws came out once again this time to scrab Cedric who was coming between him and Ayra.

As he started letting out his claws, Ayra saw it and she couldn't talk anymore. To prevent the attack on Cedric, she subconsciously casted her spell towards his paws and the consequences had gone terribly bad.

A heat of power charged inside his paws with some ferocious way and backed off his approach forcibly. The power was so much that backfired a little and hurt Cedric at the same time.

Cedric hissed out in pain as he stumbled back one step and fell over the snow covered ground beside Ayra. Ayra cried out in fear of harming Cedric,

" Your highness! "

She staggered before hauling up to reach onto him and started speaking in worry,

" Are you Okay? Did you get hurt? I am so sorry..It wasn't meant to be..I..."

She fell in silent when Debisa's high pitched animalistic loud snarl came from their back. Ayra was frozen in her spot and stared up at the pain faced Debisa who lost his clamity. He was more furious after being attacked by Ayra's powers and wanted to break everything in front of him.

His gigantic paw thumped on the ground as he started approaching them weakly since his paws were hurt by Ayra. This time, Cedric was mad equally at Debisa who was a death threat for them.

He howled in pain before getting up with Ayra's support from the ground and looked straight through Debisa's ferocious eyes. Drawing a deep breath painfully, Cedric emphasized each words to Debisa coldly,

" By the power of ancestors from Dixon Clan, I, Cedric Arnaldo Dixon, the present ruler of Basarisk is freeing you from our salvatory. From today onwards, we are no longer master and slave. You have nothing to do with us. You are free and go wherever you want. If you bring harm on the Royals, I will have no choice but to kill you by force. Since we are no longer master and slave, I have the right to kill you."

Ayra gasped, shocked by Cedric's command and whispered disbelievingly in his ears,

" Your highness! What.. what have you just done?"

Cedric replied hiding the pain of his,

" It's the best, Princess. Since he doesn't want to respect you and threats you with your life, he doesn't needed in my life anymore. Having a crazed animal is more threatening for us."

Ayra gulped before looking up at Debisa blankly. Debisa appeared shocked too. His red ferocious eyes blazed with sadness as he started retreating slowly.

Cedric swallowed hard to absorb the pain. Debisa wasn't a pet but a brother for him. He grew up in playing with Debisa and Arcabous ever since his mother died. As the time passed away, he even stopped believing that Debisa was an animal not his sibling. Perhaps life always work like this. At one point, you have to choose between your two favourites.

After Cedric gave his command, Debisa didn't approach anymore. He retreated and flew away in the sky after letting out one more snarl. His snarl wasn't angered or ferocious like before but a mix of pain and emotions. Cedric watched his flying back and squeezed his eyes shut before reopening them to look at Ayra.

He understood that Debisa didn't want Ayra around him for unknown reason but she was his wife and couldn't be separated from him. This was the only way left for him to avoid further chaos.

Ayra spoke in a sad voice,

" You shouldn't have done this. Debisa..he is gone..He is just an animal..How could you.."

" Let's head back inside and don't leave my side until we reach Basarisk early in the morning.", Cedric cut off her words sharply. His tone was cold which he never used on Ayra so far.

Observing that he was in bad mood, Ayra didn't persuade the matter anymore and helped him to go back inside their bedroom. Both were hurt but Cedric was more hurt mentally and physically.

Coming inside the room, Ayra was concerned that she had hurt Cedric too much. She didn't even pay attention on her own scar and spoke coming beside Cedric,

" Where did you get hurt? Maybe I can help you out since it was my powers."

Something twinkled in Cedric's eyes as he asked dramatically,

" Are you sure?"

Ayra nodded without understanding and scanned him from head to toe before asking again,

" Where are you aching? Let me help you."

Cedric twitched his lips before giving her a quick respond,

" In my third leg."

Ayra "....."

Cedric narrowed his eyes before asking with a scoff,

" Why? Don't want to help any longer?"

Ayra gulped down nervously her saliva and spoke abruptly,

" I..I just need permission.."

Cedric blurted a little confused of her words,

" For what?"

Ayra breathed out shyly,

" To touch you."
