❛ WILLIAM VANGEANCE ❜
How can we rewrite the stars?

REQUESTED BY: ladystxrryy. Thank you!!

WILLIAM'S POINT OF VIEW

How long am I going to look from far away? How long am I going to watch her from the shadows? How long can I keep this act of mine? How long should I endure this pain in my chest? They're taking my girl away! My girl, mine! Everyone is trying to keep her away from me and I can't let it happen anymore.

I am hers and she is mine.

"Goldie," Yami called as I raised my head.

"Yes?"

"Are you still with us?" The braided captain, Nozel, asked.

I nodded my head. "O-Of course, sorry."

I saw my other comrades shook their heads as I tried my best to focus on the meeting even if my mind is flying somewhere off. I've been like this for days, no, probably weeks. Starting from the moment that Y/N broke up with me and explained to me the whole story.

She was arranged in marriage with someone.

Is that someone greater than me? Brighter and stronger than me? Probably because he's more handsome than me? I don't know, and I'm scared to hear the answers. Y/N and I were together for years already and we tried our best to overcome each challenge that came our way yet in the end, arrange marriage is the only reason for us to break up. How ironic.

If we could just rewrite the stars.

Once the meeting ended at exactly 6 in the evening, I immediately marched outside the meeting room before dashing towards Y/N's house. The wedding is coming next month, I have to do something.

Climbing the tall walls leading to their garden, I exactly saw Y/N reading a book near the fountain. God, thank You.

"Y/N."

I whispered as I tiptoed in her direction. She lifted her face and my heart immediately skipped a beat. It feels like I haven't seen her for years. Damn, I wish I could smash my lips to her right now.

"Oh my God, William."

Y/N stood up from the bench, her book falling on the ground but she couldn't care less as she gave me tight hug. Her quiet sobs filled my ears as I caressed her hair but we didn't last in that position because she suddenly let go when we heard hush noises coming from the mansion.

Dammit. 

"What're you doing here? What if my father sees you? Do you want to die?!"

"I can't let you marry that man, Y/N." I cooed. "I beg you..."

"But–"

"Do you want to run away?"

"Are you out of your mind, William?!" She looks confused. "I can't disobey my family like that."

Why does our love need to be hard like this?!

"Don't you love me anymore?"

I was expecting a verbal response but all I received was a slap on my face. It made me blink twice, my free hand mindlessly caressing where her palm hit me. Goodness gracious, it hurts!

"I want to kill you right now, William! I really do! Do you think I want this arranged marriage too?! And now you're going to ask me if I don't love you anymore?! I do want to hit you with a refrigerator!"

Tears fell harder on her face as I chuckled sheepishly, cupping her cheeks.

"Sorry, Y/N. I-I didn't mean to ask you that. I was just making sure, you know?"

"I hate you!"

"Really?" I smirked.

"Kidding," As she responded like that, we heard a glass hitting the ground. We both turned around to see a maid, supposedly carrying a juice for Y/N, but she's now in a current state of shock, her hands covering her mouth.

"Oh no," Y/N and I both muttered under our breaths.

"SIR!! WILLIAM IS HERE! THE EX-BOYFRIEND IS HERE!" Ex-what?!

"Why is her voice louder than the Capital's sirens?!"

Before I could even move on my position, multiple guards surrounded us and Y/N's father came out from the mansion. My girlfriend rushed to my side, clutching my cape and robe.

"W-William..." Y/N whispered.

"Y/N, stay away from that man." Her father commanded sternly but her daughter didn't flinch on her position. Instead, she shook her head, hiding from my back.

"Sir–"

"What the hell are you doing here, you insolent man?! My princess doesn't need a cursed man like you!"

Whoa, there. "But I don't think she needs to marry a man she just met!"

Everyone was taken aback when I shouted back but this is the only shot I have. It's now or never.

"Sir, we've been together for years now, and never in my life, I let her get hurt. I protected her will all my might and will continue to do it as long as I'm breathing!"

"She's already arranged to marry a man richer–"

"But unwise and weaker than me. As the captain of the top squad of Magic Knights, I've been through a lot. I know that my appearance isn't acceptable but I have no bad intentions for your daughter, Sir. Please, I beg you. Don't make it hard for Y/N. I knew that as her father, you don't want to see her marry a man just for money and riches, and in the end, seeing her miserable. I love Y/N so much and I am willing to trade my life for her safety!"

"How dare you answer back, William, you piece of–"

"Dad, stop!"

The whole mansion turned quiet as Y/N shouted on top of her lungs. Unhiding herself behind me, she marched towards her father before she threw a ring that used to be on her right hand.

"William is right! I don't want to marry someone I just met, I don't want to marry someone I don't know and love! I don't want to marry for money! I'm sick of you controlling my life! Sometimes, it makes me think that, what if was born from a different family? Will I be miserable like what am I now?!"

Those words slapped her father hard.

"Dad, wake up! I am a fine woman now, let me decide for myself! T-This is why Mom left us! Because you probably kept on controlling her life and she was sick of it! I hate you! Everything is your fault! I am going to marry William, not that stupid man you wanted for me!"

Y/N turned her back from everyone as she grabbed me on the wrist. Of course, I'm still speechless. I suddenly wanted to shout, "That's my girl!", but I guess that this isn't the right time. Her father looked more hurt than ever, slowly descending on his knees with tears falling from his eyes. My conscience suddenly hit me.

"Y/N," I stopped from my tracks.

"Why?! Don't you want to–"

"Your father." I pointed to her Dad as she hesitantly bit her lip.

"Goddammit, this is crazy!"

As she let go of me, she ran back as I smiled. I saw her hug his father with a giant thorn pulled out from my heart. I can finally breathe properly. Both of them talked for a while, sharing tears as they reconciled. This could be one of the most precious scenes I've seen in my life. After a few moments, I saw her father gesturing for me to come closer as I obeyed.

"William," He called.

"S-Sir."

"You better take care of my daughter, or else I'll hunt you with an ax and riffle on hands."

As I chuckled, Y/N stood on my side, her hands intertwining with mine. Damn, it's so soft and warm!

"I swear to the bottom of my heart, Sir. I will protect and love your daughter for the rest of your life."

Finally, we rewrote the stars.
