HAZEL IN CASTOR'S LAND
Swindle

Hazel woke up rubbing her eyes, she blinked, started to observe the surroundings. It turned out that he was in his room, but not his room, but the hotel, when he was about to get up from his bed, he felt that he was touching someone under the covers. HHazel turned his head, he was surprised to find Collins beside him who was fast asleep, the man did not wear a piece of cloth.

"What is this?!" Hazel saw that her body was also plain without a cloth under the blanket.

His anger was ignited to look at Collins who was still closing his eyes.

"Damn! What are you doing me?!" Hazel slaps Collins's sleeping face.

With a twitching eye, Collins awoke. He knew Hazel was mad at him. Collins flower just silently lowered his head, unable to say anymore because he did it deliberately.

"You are rude to me! You're a jerk who takes advantage of women's negligence!" Hazel scolded, Collins did not react, the man just bowed as if he regretted his actions.

"You set me up?!" ask Hazel to snatch.

"No, you asked me to drink at the club, said you were having trouble, but you didn't tell me, I was drunk, you were drunk, and this is what happened.." Collins explained in a serious mimicry.

Hazel didn't believe that, she got off the bed and wrapped herself in a blanket. Wearing her clothes back that had been scattered on the floor.

"This is without Hazel's intention, I also accidentally spilled my seeds inside, I'm sorry." said Collins who was already planned.

Hazel lost her mind, she pelted Collins with an ashtray, almost hitting the man's head.

"Never appear before me and my family again!" Hazel warns him and chooses to leave the hotel room.

Along the way, in the taxi he didn't stop crying. He has not met Alaric, but his body is instead colonized by another man, Hazel feels wrong for giving Collins the chance to approach him.

"I wish I had kept my distance from him" Lirih Hazel regretted.

He doesn't even remember anything, but he feels he has betrayed Alaric's love. Hazel is now confused as to whether she will still be accepted by Alaric after having sex with Collins.

Arriving home, Hazel heads straight to her room, passing Tommy and Emma who have just returned from work. Hazel even slammed the door of her room hard, but a few seconds later, she opened the door again, revealing half of her body behind the door.

"Dad, don't let Collins into this house, if you still take it, then I'm the one who's out of here." He said, then closed the door again.

Hearing that Collins and Emma jerked, now Hazel looks very angry, only this time Tommy saw the attitude of his daughter who raged like a lioness who was eager to pounce.

"It looks like something big has happened" Tommy told Emma.

"Yes, you have to comply with Hazel's request, and forcing someone's feelings is hard" Emma said.

Hazel shuts herself in the room, crying until her voice is heard by Tommy and Emma. The two people who cared about him were worried about Hazel's conditioner with a mental state that wasn't okay. Several times Tommy knocked on his bedroom, but Hazel just said he didn't want to be disturbed.

"Just leave him alone first, not everything we have to know, he has his own considerations to reveal the events that happened to him."Emma's Advice to Tommy.

Tommy is pacing around in front of his daughter's room, only this time Hazel is doing so, he wants to go ask Collins directly, but Emma forbids it to keep Hazel feeling.

He picked up the fairy tale book that was closed forever. Hoping for a miracle to bring him and Alaric together, but when he tried to force him to open the magic book, his hand immediately felt numb, like he was holding embers of fire.

"If Alaric can get out of Castor's country, then there's another fairy tale book" Hazel murmured.

***

Alaric did not give up, he returned to the supermarket alone, without telling Grandma Grace, he desperately waited for Hazel with hope alone. An hour had passed, he was still sitting on the waiting bench, his gaze exploring every corner of the supermarket. But among the dozens of people who passed by, his eyes were fixed on the figure of the woman who stood looking at him.

"Zhietta.." says Alaric.

Zhietta accidentally found Alaric, she looked at the Castor prince without blinking. Slowly he stepped towards Alaric with his sharp gaze.

"Will he use his magic?" Alaric wondered alone.

Zhietta crossed hands greeting Alaric.

"I was expecting you to come out of Castor just to visit your girlfriend" said Zhietta.

Alaric won't ask why Zhietta wasn't killed either, he thinks it'll make him limp, Alaric will figure out Zhietta's weakness in Hazel's world.

"Go home, you better go home to take care of your kingdom, don't expect love from another human being in this country, you'll be disappointed" Zhietta said with a slanted smile.

Alaric didn't budge, he took his eyes off the former witch. Alaric waited for Hazel, however tired she was, to see Hazel again. While Zhietta was watching Alaric's clothes, she wanted to know, whether Alaric was carrying the magic pen out of Castor, or if there was someone else holding it.

"Why did you see me? you want to bewitch me here?" ask Alaric.

"I'll do it if I can, you better go home, you don't know the risk if you don't become a vampire anymore, but live here, hahahah" Zhietta laughed because she knew there would be a big risk waiting for her.

Alaric furrowed his brows, Zhietta who knew Alaric was confused instead deliberately laughed at the Castor prince.

"You need to know, you're passing through the spare door out of Castor, not the original, there's a lot of risk that could happen, you better write down your good destiny as soon as possible, before the magic book ends" Zhietta said.

Alaric swallowed his saliva, every word for word Zhietta had meaning, he was sure that Zhietta was not currently scaring him, but a warning, Alaric should know what risks would befall him if he settled in London.

"Alright, please think hard, I think you're smart to get the answer" said Zhietta, who chose to leave Alaric. By pushing her trolley, Zhietta left Alaric dizzy. The woman assumed that Alaric had brought the book and the magic pen with him to London.

"It looks like Zhietta has become an ordinary human being, she is no longer a witch, what do you mean about the risk." murmured Alaric.

He remembered with a magic pen, the pen he put in the drawer at Meneh Grace's house. But his mistake is not a single magic fairy tale book that he brought, it is difficult to write a good destiny for him.

"The only way is to steal the book that Zhietta has," said Alaric, who still looks at Zhietta from a distance.
