Yumni deer

Yumni deer
Saya was holding Yifang's arm as she showed her around the night market. It was her first time visiting the night market and she was fascinated by the beauty.

"Prince Yifang...." She paused earning a glare from Yifang.
"I mean....Yifang.
Can we buy some snacks? They look tasty."

"You should not request me for anything. Instead order me for everything." He rubbed his palm over her head and stopped in front of the next stall. It has meat ball covered in special sauce.

The taste of meatballs was nothing special but the sauce was sour and sweet.

As they were walking around the market, there was a lot of crowd in a corner. Saya wanted to see what was there so she asked Yifang to go there while Yifang followed her order.

It was an old tent and in that tent was sitting an old man who was looking the future of his clients.

"Yifang, should we ask him for our future?"

"He is just a fraud."

Yifang shrugged his shoulders and wanted to leave when they man looked at him. He gestured others to leave and motioned Saya to come near him.

Saya pressy her lips together and lool at Yifang who stood protectively near her. Finally she walked towards him and sat on the empty space in front of him.

The man waved his hand over the blue crystal ball and then again looked at Saya.

"You have a kind heart and you will do great in your life."

Yifang rolled his eyes as this was the most common things these types of people will say.

"Your destiny has changed and your destructor had become your saviour. But now you have even more problems in your life. You are special and tonight you will know how special you are."

Yifang grabbed Saya's hand and wanted to drag her with him but the old man held his wrist.

"Stop thinking about tge throne. You will never get it because you have to do something bigger than being a king. You will protect the next MASEHHA."

Yifang squinted his eyes and before he could say something, thean got up and walked out of the tent. Yifang quickly followed him but in a split second, he was gone.

"Yifang...."
Saya called him as she came out of the tent.
"What that man was saying?"

"Nothing, do not worry. Let's go back."

He held her hand and lead him out of the crowd but they haven't reached far when they heard man who was telling something to the crowd.

"It was a Yumni deer. I saw it with my own eyes. It's antlers were this big and shone bright under teg moonlight."

"He is gone crazy. How can he see a Yumni deer this close to the town?"

Someone said I'm a tone full of mockery while the crowd erupted in laughter.

"You are just jealous because it was me who saw it and not you."

Before the environment turn into something dangerous, Yifang lead Saya on the way to the nearby path. Soon, a fight was started and he was happy he was not stick in that fight or else those people would end up dead.

"Where are we going?"

"There is another path to the palace."
He showed her the dark path that disappeared in the dark.

"What is a yumni deer? What were they talking about back there?"

Saya questioned him as she walked carefully with him while Yifang and his arm around her waist supporting her so she won't trip on the rocks.

"Yumni deer.
It's very holy to us Lycans werewolves vampires and witches. Or you can say, as it is a supernatural creature so it is special to us except of course humans.

Yumni deer had great healing powers and maintains the flow of power. I don't think anyone saw it in last hundred years."

"Hm." Saya hummed softly.

"And what about MASEHHA? What is a MASEHHA?"

"It's just a story. Do not worry about it?"

"Now you are creating suspense." She stood while grabbed her waist and carefully put her on the ground. The rocky rock ended and now they were standing in the deep part of forest.

"I wanted to show you something."

He held her hand and lead her out of the forest. Outy there was a clearing and a little lake. The water shone green under the full moon while Saya was mesmerized by its beauty.

"This is so beautiful."

"Not more than you." He chuckled and wanted to hold her hand but Saya walked away from him. She stopped near the lake while Yifang smiled and followed her. He back hugged her and kissed her neck.

"I want to make you scream my name."

"Huh?" Saya turned her head towards him and her face turned red understanding what he meant.

"You have only one thing on your mind."

"Wrong. I only have you on my mind."

Yifang chuckled softly and kissed her nape making Saya gasped. She wanted to push him away but hugged her tightly.

"I won't do it again."

"You better not be." She warned him who hummed and burried his face in the crook of her neck as the sweet smell of roses spread in the whole area.

After few minutes, Saya turned and wanted to leave but she paused as she looked behind over Yifang's.

"Yi....Yifang.....that..."

She pointed behind him and Yifang turned his head to look where Saya was pointing.

Behind the bushes, he could only see larnge antlers that were shining under the moonlight. The creature came out of bushes and Saya was amazed to see it's beauty.
The whole body looked at if it was shining and the deer looked at if it was walking on the air. It's eyes were green and looked as if it was staring in their souls.

Yifang fell on his knees. The power radiating from the Yumni deer was too much for him to handle. It was said that no one can go near hundred meters of Yumni deer while a lycan like him was could feel the power at this distance.
He bowed his head as the deer walked towards them while Saya looked stunned.

"Saya." Yifang called her who walked towards deer.
"No, come back."

He called her unable to move while the deer stopped near Saya. Standing in front of it, she only reached upto it's head. She raised her hand as if wanted to touch it while the deer bowed it's head so she can touch it's head.
The fur was soft and cold and it gave a strange feeling to Saya. Saya moved her hand upward and touched teg antlers of the deer. The antlers shone as if they were made of diamond while Yifang watched them silently.

"Don't..... don't chose her.
Please...."

He begged in his heart but it was too late. There was little baby who was following the Yumni deer. It came near them and Saya looked at the baby. She was too amazed and wanted to touch the baby.

"Saya, don't.... don't take the responsibility of the baby."

Yifang begged her but it was too late. As Saya touched the head of the baby, it disappeared in thin air and a round jade bangle appeared around Saya's wrist.

She blinked and the Yunmi deer slowly was disappearing in the air.

She looked confused as his Brian wa suddenly covered with a white fog. She turned towards Yifang who was now able to move and quickly ran towards her and took her in his embarce before Saya could collapse on the ground.

"Don't worry. I am here. Just go to sleep. I won't let anyone harm you."

He ensured Saya whose eyes could not stay open any longer and she fell in deep sleep.
Yifang hugged her close to his chest and then then looked at the jade bracelet.

The green Jade was telling him that he was holding the future MASEHHA.

"Do not worry.
I won't let anyone take you away from me.
I won't let anyone know what had happened here tonight.
Just sleep my love. This lycan will protyyou from Amy harm."

He leaned and kissed her forehead who was in deep sleep.
