Part 64: Last hug & sacrifice
The Cruel Prince
Author by Natalie Ernison
Abed was forced to release Nathasya to Zakra, because he didn't want many lives to be sacrificed because of the inaccuracy in making choices. However, the choice to release Nathasya to Zakra was not the right choice. But Abed had to do it, he made up his mind that Nathasya would be fine, he knew his little woman was not as weak as before.
Zakra held a dance with the nobles of Dracula and the dark creatures. Now he and Nathasya are in the attic of their mansion.
“Master Zakra, why did Master make my life so difficult... why did Master snatch everything that didn't belong to Master...” Nathasya whispered as she looked at the vast courtyard of Zakra's mansion.
“Why Master! Why?”
Bhuakkk .... suddenly Zakra's body staggered, and was released from his embrace.
Hah!! Nathasya was shocked and wide-eyed when she saw Zakra's body lying down.
“Master Zakra! hey don't go too far!!” Nathasya shook Zakra's body.
“Servant!! Servant!!” Nathasya hastily called the servants of the mansion.
“What happened madam? why are you like this sir?” Said the servants and the guards of the mansion also went upstairs.
“Quickly chase away those damned guests!!” said Nathasya with a face filled with anger, because she was very sick of the abominations of the nobles at the dance.
“Okay madam, madam's orders are absolute for us ..” Said the guard then rushed to carry out what Nathasya ordered.

Nathasya and the mansion workers together brought Zakra's body into a special room, located right at the back of the mansion. While the state of the main room which is where the party is held is neatly arranged.
All workers were so busy preparing rituals for their master, while Nathasya just sat watching.
“I hope this demon doesn't have to wake up forever...” Nathasya thought. However, for some reason, there was an uneasy feeling when he saw Zakra turned pale and his whole body was very cold.
Fresh blood from several virgin girls had been dripped into Zakra's mouth, even dripping onto his body area, but he didn't realize it.
“Madam, it looks like we have to call your majesty the king's father and queen's mother ..” said one of the bodyguards.
“Up to you.” Nathasya answered briefly, and was still in a sitting position.
Whusss.... a gust of gripping wind suddenly blows quite hard.
“What happened to Zakra..—” Said Zakra's father, and suddenly he ran towards the chest where Zakra is currently lying stiff.
“Zakra my son...” the queen mother whispered in a hurry.
“Zakra!!!” cried his father with wide eyes.
“Father… is this the fate of the prince of darkness?” whispered the mother as she hugged her father.
Nathasya got up from her seat, and slowly approached Zakra's chest.
“What happened to him?” asked Nathasya with a stiff face and empty eyes.
“Zakra is gone forever..” his father whispered, suddenly making Nathasya stagger.
“What… gone forever… after what he did! then just walk away…” Nathasya sobbed, not because she lost but because she was so angry with everything Zakra had done. Now Zakra has not had time to correct his mistakes, but he must go forever.
“Actually, he will die if he has met his true love ..” his father whispered with sobs that began to break.
“Nathasya, thanks for your return Zakra finally left peacefully, and actually...—”

Flashback for a moment...
-----------
“Mama, I know you must have known where Nathasya is, right?” Zakra said while holding his mother's shoulders.
“Zakra let her live happily...”
“No mama, I love her so much… where is she? My punch that should have hit Abed shouldn't have hit Nathasya...” Zakra whispered as he fell down in front of his mother.
“That human girl is somewhere, and so dying, she's probably going to die...”
“Mama!! I beg mama, I want to save her ..” Zakra regrets, he wails in his tears.
“Your heart.” Said the mother.
“my heart!” Zakra was very surprised to hear that, and his crying stopped for a moment.
“Give me your heart, and mama will give it to restore the human girl's body...”
“What do you mean mom... I don't understand...”
“My son, you have suffered too much for her and all the innocents. Now do what Mama says, then let fate decide.”
“I will, on one condition! Nathasya must come back to me, let the last remaining time, I want to die in his arms .. “ said Zakra with full confidence.
“Are you sure my son?” The mother said with almost disbelief in her eyes.
“After I give my heart, then try to get her back to me.”

Once upon a time, in the magical realm of the elven world…
“Who are you?” said the man who was with his wife in a dense forest.
“I know you guys are taking care of two pairs of humans and one a dark creature?” said the woman in the black robe.
“What do your people want?” Said the man who was an elf, he was Efis.
“Give this to the dying woman, and don't let anyone find out. When you give him, try to get into her body by any means.”
Whosss... the woman's figure disappeared instantly.
“Is this my husband?” Eve asked when she saw a gold box.
“We do my wife..”
The two married couples rushed to their residence, and while Abed was busy making a chest, they sneaked in quietly.
***
“Husband, this is the heart! why is this whole!!” said eve, she almost threw up seeing the heart that seemed to still be beating.
Efis took the heart that was in the golden colored box, and squeezed it with her magic power. Slowly he put it into the mouth of Nathasya who was lying stiff. Because it was quite difficult, he left some of the rest and secretly mixed it into a fresh drink.
Not long after, Abed also took care of Nathasya's innocent body. In fact, Efis and Eve knew that Nathasya would soon come back to her senses.
… … …
After Nathasya's consciousness...
“Mrs. Eve, madam's cooking is very delicious..” said Nathasya while drinking a glass of Eve's concoction tea, and in the tea it was mixed with the heart given by the woman in the robe a few days ago. But in the process of making, Eve uses her magic power.

Meanwhile, at Zakra's residence…
“Mama, where's Nathasya... ahkk...—” Zakra groaned in pain while clutching his chest, right where his heart was. Taking Zakra's heart too, of course using the queen's magic power.
“Just you wait, Abed will come soon. After that, it was your own effort to get Abed to hand over the human girl to you.”
Flashback done...
The Queen Mother had finished telling the story of Zakra's true sacrifice to Nathasaya...
*** *** ***
“What...” Nathasya was getting weaker and couldn't believe that the savage man who always tortured her had saved her life, even sacrificed his life for her.
“Let's bury Zakra's body in a proper place ..” Said his father.
Nathasya is still sobbing in disbelief, she even said cruel things just before Zakra's death for good, and now it's all over...
Finally, Zakra's body was buried in the burial area of the nobility. Located in the supernatural realm of the dark nation.
~ ~ ~
“Nathasya, live happily. Now Zakra is gone, and maybe he will be incarnated, if only that was possible .. “ said his father while patting both of Nathasya's shoulders.
“Thank you, king Majesty..” Nathasya said with a sad face.
Nathasya returned to the human realm, she was even given an apartment by the Crossadio extended family.
***
“Nathasya's apartment”
Nathasya began to tidy up her living room, an emptiness was implied in her eyes. She sat pensive, remembering everything that had happened.
Drrtt... a new cell phone rings.
“Hello...”
“Miss Nathasya, starting tomorrow, Miss will start working in a design office as an editor as well as a designer..—” Said a man from behind the cell phone.
Haha...
“I haven't worked for a long time..—”
Nathasya began to prepare herself to return to work, and she knew this was the work of the Crossadio family.
The next day...
“Simple make up, neat clothes.. okay I'm ready for a new day ..” Nathasya rushed to the address that had been given.
***
Nathasya went to the magnificent building that had been dedicated to her…
“Is this his office, so magnificent..” Nathasya thought when she arrived in front of the office where she was going to work.
“Hey...--” someone tapped Nathasya's shoulder.
Hahhh...-- Nathasya was very surprised, and....
