Voyage Of The Villainess

Chapter 211 - Volume 6.21 One Day Without Her Memories (1)

Malaya opened her eyes, a sharp pain hit her head like it was cracked into two.

"Are you alright?" Someone suddenly came to her aid. A warm voice that was full of worry. "I am not just with you and something already happened to you."

The pain in her head was already subsiding. Other than her name, Malaya couldn't remember anything. She glanced at the man beside her. 

'What a handsome guy,' Malaya couldn't help but admire the face in front of her. Jet and messy black hair, and eyes that were like the beautiful and most exquisite rubies. And those beautiful eyes held worry as he looked at her.

She slowly sat down and leaned at the headboard of the bed. "Who are you, Mr. Handsome?" Malaya asked.

This time a flicker of anger flashed to the handsome man's face. Malaya couldn't help but feel frightened.

"What are you saying?" The handsome seeing her being scared like this, his expression softened. Her being afraid of him was one of the things that he hated the most.

"I don't know who you are, Are you the one who helped me?" Malaya asked.

"You don't remember anything?"

"Other than my name, I don't remember anything," Malaya said. "Are you perhaps someone close to me?"

Malaya looked at the man's pained expression. "Yes." He meekly said. "I'm Kayden."

At the mention of his name, something thug inside Malaya's heart. 'What's this feeling? Perhaps this handsome person is my lover and sorts? He indeed says that he is someone close to me. Ah, wait, how can I think such silly and embarrassing thoughts, maybe he is a relative of mine.'

"Are you perhaps a family or relative to me? My brother perhaps?" Malaya asked once again.

"Pfft." Kayden let out a snort to Malaya's surprise. He was more handsome when he smiled. 'Damn, my heart will not be able to take this too much hit.'

"No, I am not your family relative or anything," Kayden finally said.

"Then a friend?" Malaya was going nervous now.

"Not either," Kayden said. "You really forget everything that you have done to me?"

Malaya's eyes widened at his words. 'What does he mean by that? Did I do something bad to him?'

"I don't really remember anything," Malaya responded as she backed away from the bed she was lying in later. However, Kayden followed her, and lean closer to her. "You really forgot about everything. How will you take responsibility for everything you did to me, then?" He inched closer, and Malaya back further away until her back hit the wall.

Kayden's face was so close to her, that she could feel his breath.

"Ta-take responsibility? What kind of things did I do to you?" Malaya said, a bit flustered, if she moved a bit closer, she would touch his face.

Kayden held her right hand then placed it to his heart. "This is what you did to me."

She could feel the rapid beatings of Kayden's heart. "I am going crazy of you, since the time I can't see you. And now that I see you, worried to death after you don't wake up for more than two days now, and now you forgot about me?"

'When has he been this talkative?' Malaya thought. 'No, wait, how did I know that? Does it mean, I really know this man.' Malaya could also feel the loud beatings of her heart.

"Then perhaps, are we lovers?" Malaya asked the last and possible question.

A grin escaped Kayden's lips. "It will be nice if that is the case." Hearing his answer, Malaya could feel the rushing of heat on her face. She knew too well that her face must be a beet red right now.

"Wha-what do you mean by that?" Malaya asked.

This time Kayden moved away from her. "Be ready when your memories return." He said and walked outside the room. Malaya was awoken from her stupor when she heard the closing of the door.

She hit her chest, to calm herself. "What in the world is happening?" As she observed the room she was in, it was a small room, containing her bed, one chair, and a table.  And a small wooden closet.

'Aside from my name, I don't know who I am. Where am I? Or what happened to me?' 

And there was him, the man who possibly saved me from something. Malaya clutched her head, as she tried to remember everything, However, only Kayden's face flashed in front of her.

"Be ready when your memories return."

Her face flushed red once again. She put both her hands on her cheeks. 'What will happen when I regain my memories?'

---⚓⚓⚓---

Meanwhile, Kayden went to the storeroom in the two-story house they were currently staying in. 

After days of looking out to the source of dark magic concentration near the beastmen tribes, he returned only to see that Iris and Lila were being taken away to war. He followed their trail and finally reached the Kingdom that the beastmen were attacking.

But what he saw when he arrived was rather alarming. Everyone, from the beastmen to the soldiers to the beastmen had fallen into a deep sleep. He saw a familiar green head, Oliver, who was slowly waking up.

When Oliver was awakened. He immediately panics looking for someone. That was when Kayden found out that Malaya was abducted by a siren, who caused everyone to sleep here. They awakened Iris as well. And when they told her what happened, she immediately released one of her magical moths to look for Malaya.

That was what Kayden followed and he found Malaya tied inside a cave with a strange man with him. Before he could kill the man, the man told him that he poisoned Malaya. And if he killed him, he would never have the antidote. Out of spite, he simply knocked out the man after a few beatings.

Kayden brought Malaya to an empty house, and that was where he nursed her. However, despite the antidote the man gave him, she was still not waking for almost two days now. Her vital signs were also normal. Kayden decided that he should bring Malaya to Hyun Jae now.

And that was when Malaya opened her eyes. The beautiful and clear light aquamarine, that made him always drawn to her.

And it looked to him, however, he found something amiss. It was like the first time they first met at the prison cell. 

"Who are you, Mr. Handsome?"

Something stung inside him. 'What is she playing at this time?'

However, as they further looked, her eyes were blank and it seemed she had truly forgotten about him. Something inside him awakened, he couldn't accept how easily she forgot about everything to him after everything they had been through.

That was why he leaned closer to her so that she would remember. However, aside from being flustered, which gave him satisfaction, since this was the first time he saw that kind of reaction to Malaya. And only to him.

Those quivering lips as she tried to speak towards him. Very different from her usual confident and outspoken ones. However, both were still lovely to him. And only him could see this side of her, no one else. 

When he didn't see Malaya for so many days and found out that she was even kidnapped, and now forgot about him. Kayden realized so many things. And the feelings he was feeling inside him for her. He wanted to claim those lips right now. To hide her and keep her only to her side, so that she would not disappear again. So that she would not live with him ever again or make sure that she won't forget about him.

Such selfish thoughts, that he knew too well that he couldn't do. Or else, he would hurt her.

Kayden didn't want to take advantage of losing her memory. He could answer that he was her lover, however, he wanted that to come out naturally of her. However, now that he made his feelings obvious to her despite her being so dense most of the time, a grin escaped Kayden's lips.

"Be ready when your memories return."

'I won't let you escape away from me anymore.' His thoughts as he left Malaya alone in the room.

Now back to the storage room, there was the Siren that dared to hurt Malaya.

"She lost her memory," Kayden said with a menacing voice to the Siren tied in the chair. "And now you die!" A blazing sword made of dark flame erupted from Kayden's hands.

The Siren only glared at him. He couldn't speak since his mouth was gagged with a white piece of cloth.

He raised his sword ready to slice the Siren, however before he could bring his sword down.

"Kayden?" The sweet voice of Malaya rang. "What is happening right now? What are you going to do with him?"

His sword was so close to Arnes' neck.. If Malaya was a second late to arrive, Arnes would have been a corpse right now.
