May Death Do Us Part Chapter 307 - 307 Chapter 307 : What had he done?!

307 Chapter 307 : What had he done?!

Elric could feel his own soul leaving his body as Eira succumbed to the cold grasp of death. Her skin was now as white as a parchment of paper, and her eyes were barely open now.

“El.. ric...”

The lycan, with tears flooding his eyes, looked down at the young woman in his arms. “Please don’t speak,” he told her in a pained voice. “Save your strength Eira.”

She twitched her arm and Elric took in his hand.

“I’m glad I got to see you again,” she whispered while gasping. “At least I know you care.”

Tears flowed down his face, did she really feel like he didn’t care? Elric felt his chest tighten, he should have never left her, if he had been here, maybe, just maybe, all of this would not have happened.

“Eira,” the silver haired prince spoke, “I don’t just care, I... I love you Eira...”

A small smile tugged the corners of Eira’s mouth, before she whispered words that completely shattered his heart.

“Elric, I love-”

.....

Her words were cut short, her hand went lip in his, her eyes closed completely, and her beautiful head fell back.

“No... Eira? Eira?!” Elric shook the young woman in his arms. “Eira please, please don’t leave me! Eira!” He leaned onto her chest to try and hear her heartbeat, but there was complete silence. “Noooo!!!”

A devastated roar escaped Elric’s lips while his heart broke into a thousand pieces. Finally he had met the one, the woman who was actually meant for him, and he had just lost her just like that.

Melissa screamed when she heard Elric roar in anguish, she tried to pry herself out of her husband’s arms, but Gareth held on to her tightly, his own tears dampening her hair.

Their little girl, their princesss was gone.

A dark cloud settled on the kingdom of Gavaria that moment, as everyone bowed their head and moaned the princess. Of which the one who felt the most pain, even though no one realized it, was Elric.

The lycan held Eira tightly and wept, he could not fathom the kind of sadness and pain he was feeling. He felt like his heart had just been yanked out of his chest. He had lost a part of him, he was crippled, and he knew he would never be the same again.

He knew that his life would be one of misery, that’s if he didn’t put an end to it. Because in all honesty, this life was not worth living without Eira, his mate.

Amidst all the confusion, Zhelimir appeared while dragging Jacob, while Janis was crying and screaming his name behind him. The hybrid threw Jacob in front of the king and queen, his face bruised and beaten and his arms tied behind his back.

“Zhel please!” Janis cried

Zhelimir pushed Janis away and gave her glare warning her to stay back. He loved this woman, he really did, but the anger and fury he was feeling towards her brother was too immense, and he didn’t want to hurt Janis accidentally.

Ivan pushed through the crowd, his wife following him closely behind and stood next to where his son was kneeling.

“What is the meaning of this Zhelimir?! How dare you treat my son in such a way?!”

“Look at her!” Zhelimir growled at Jacob, “look what you did to her you bastard! You killed Eira!” As he yelled, tears were flowing down his face. Zhelimir had just lost a sister, someone who he considered his best friend, all because of this selfish man.

Ivan looked down at his son and then back to Zhelimir. “What in the world are you talking about Zhelimir?”

“Jacob killed her!” The hybrid yelled. Earning gasps from everyone around.

“That is a big accusation Zhelimir,” Ivan spoke out, “watch what you’re saying!”

“You don’t believe me?! Ask him, ask him about how he snuck poison into Eira’s water!” Zhelimir yelled. “You still have doubts?” The hybrid pointed to Janis, “she saw it! She saw him pour the poison into the water that Eira drunk before their battle.”

Elena looked up at her daughter, her eyes full of disbelief and fear. “Janis? Is this true?”

Janis looked at her brother and nodded, “it’s true, I saw him putting something in the water that he gave Eira before the fight, when I asked him about it he told me to mind my own.”

“What proof do you have that it was poison?!” Ivan yelled. “The princess could have eaten a plenty of other things before this moment.”

“Father, Isabella and I were with Eira all day,” Janis spoke out while sobbing uncontrollably, “the only thing she ate or drunk, was the water that Jacob gave her! Can’t you see, he has finally succumbed to madness! He couldn’t handle Eira being with someone else so much, that he decided to end her life!”

Jacob looked at the red head in Elric’s arms, and it was then, that all that was happening hit him. “Is she... is she dead?”

Elric glared at the elven man, his fangs bared and ready to rip him apart. How dare he have the audacity to ask such a question? After all, he was the one responsible!

“No...” Jacob mumbled. “No! I didn’t do this! I would never want to hurt Eira! No!” Jacob tried to reach for Eira’s hand but Elric growled viciously and stopped him in his tracks.

“Don’t you dare touch her!”

“But I didn’t kill her!” Jacob yelled.

“Then how do you explain the evidence?!” Gareth yelled. “Explain yourself Jacob, and for the love of the gods you better be innocent!”

“Wait, your majesty please,” Jacob pleaded, “I admit it! I did put a potion into the water I gave the princess, but it was not poison I swear to you!”

“Lies!” Zhelimir roared angrily. “What could you be possibly putting in her water if not poison.”

Jacob paused a moment, he had no choice, if he wanted to take away any suspicion from himself and prove himself innocent, he had to admit he was about to cheat in the competition.

“It was a love potion!” Jacob yelled. “I wanted to use a love potion on the princess so I could make her my wife! I had no malicious intentions, I’m madly in love with Eira! I love her! I’d rather die than harm her. believe me!”

“You fool!” Renly yelled, “that was no love potion, that was a very potent poison. Because of your selfishness, you killed her! Who sold it to you?!”

“Tell us now and maybe your punishment will be lenient!” Gareth yelled. “Where did you get the potion Jacob?!”

With a trembling hand, Jacob pointed to Maxim, “him! I stole the potion from his home! I heard him speaking to a woman through a mirror about using a potion on the princess. I thought it was a love potion, so I took it for myself to use, I didn’t know he was plotting to poison her I swear!”

Everyone turned to look at Maxim. The elven man was completely mortified, so it was Jacob who had stolen the potion from him?! And that stupid man had used it on Eira?! This was not how things were supposed to go, he had changed his mind about using the potion. And Ronda, she had lied, she had said the potion was going to put the princess into a deep sleep, not to kill her!

Oh gods! What had he done?!
