    Half an hour later, Rhett finally said goodbye to his mother and left the village.

    "I would love to meet Sabrina one day, son. Based on the way you describe her - she sounds like a wonderful girl," Lyndra stated.

    "Yes, she is, Mother! You will meet each other soon. But I already warn you that she''s no longer a beautiful woman. The curse turned her into a hideous looking girl," Rhett replied sadly.

    "That''s okay, son. I understand the reason why she ended like that. You have nothing to worry about when it comes to my reaction if I will come face to face with her," Lyndra assured him.

    "Thank you for your understanding and compassion towards my unfortunate girlfriend, Mother," Rhett said happily.

    "Don''t mention it. The girl''s look doesn''t matter to me, as long you love him, I''ll welcome her with open arms. Besides she sacrifice a lot for you so that you can be freed from the curse and become a free man. She only deserve my respect," Lyndra stated.

    Rhett sighed. "I''m guilty of deceiving her to come inside the cave. But later on we fall in love with each other and it''s the best thing that ever happen to me. I did not only regain my freedom but I also meet the perfect woman for me!"

    "Well, it''s surprising to see things going in a different direction. But since I''m happy for your freedom, I can only be kind and accommodating to the girl who made your freedom possible. I will pack some stuff for your girl, my gift for her. Just some food and clothes," Lyndra said.

    "Thank''s Mom!" Rhett smiled affectionately at his mother.

    "Just wait a minute, I''m going to the bedroom and pick up some stuff," Lyndra spoke and moved towards the staircase, going to the second floor of the house.

    Wearing a smile on his face, Rhett watched his mother climb the stairs. His father and mother already accepted Sabrina, there''s no problem at all introducing her to the family. If the curse is gone one day, he can bring her home anytime and everyone will accept her.

    His spirit was soaring up in the high heavens while having a lengthy conversation with his beloved mother. He feels so good and wanted to return to the cave right away.

    A few minutes later.

    Lyndra descended the stairs carrying a bundle with her.

    Rhett went to the stairs and took the bundle from his mother. "What''s inside, Mother?" he asked.

    "Just some women stuff, coat, clothes and biscuits," Lyndra answered.

    "Thank you, Mother dear!" Rhett said and planted a kiss on her mother''s head.

    "You leave now while it''s still early. You need to return to the cave before the evening comes," Lyndra said.

    "Alright, I''m going now, Mother. Please give my regards to my father and my siblings. I''ll return here next weekend.

    "Okay, take care of yourself on your way back to the cave. Stay safe always," Lyndra said.

    Rhett hugged his mother and bid goodbye. "Bye, Mom! See you next week!" he said and walked towards the door.

    Lyndra watched his son leave their property with tears in her eyes. He was just thirteen years old kid when imprisoned in the cave by a cruel witch. He comes back home already a grown-up man. Indeed, time flies too fast!

    She wiped the tears from her eyes, tears of happiness.

    ...

    Rhett left behind the Golden Peak Valley and begins his journey back to the forest, he need to travel fast before nightfall. He had promised Sabrina that he will return before the evening comes and he''s not gonna break that promise.

    On the way, he was greeted with the same towering trees, thick green landscape, and gorgeous lakes and streams.

    The serene landscape is a good companion during his travel.

    He remained in his human form during his journey back to the cave because he had a bundle to carry on his back. He doesn''t want to spoil its content once it will roll off his back if he was in his wolf form.

    Rhett looked up ahead, he was about to pass another lake which has shallow water.

    If he will maintain his current brisk walking speed he will arrive at the cave before 6:00 in the evening.

    He''s getting excited to see Sabrina again.

    He finally arrived at the lake and passed through it quickly without encountering any problem.

    Up ahead is the wooded area.

    ....

    Meanwhile...

    Sabrina was patiently waiting at the entrance of the cave.

    Amara joined her, waiting for Rhett''s return. She looked outside. "It''s already late afternoon, and the night will come soon," she said and glanced at the girl sporting an anxious expression on her face.

    Sabrina didn''t say a word.

    "Are you worried that Rhett can''t return tonight?" Amara asked.

    Sabrina nodded her head and said, "Yeah..."

    "Don''t worry, I''m here to protect you," Amara assured her.

    Sabrina looked at her and smiled a bit.

    "Can I ask you some private question? I hope you don''t mind..." Amara said.

    "What is it?"

    "I heard your loud moaning the other night, did you and Rhett already make love?" Amara asked innocently.

    Sabrina blushed right away. "I don''t have to answer that. It''s up to you how you will interpret what you hear," she replied nonchalantly.

    Amara smiled and patted her head. "Sorry if I offended you with my question . I will never intrude again in your private activities with your boyfriend," she said.

    Sabrina smiled at her. "I''m just not comfortable answering it. I hope you understand..."

    Amara nods her head. "It''s okay, what you feel is normal."

    Silence descended upon them as they continue looking outside, waiting for Rhett.

    Sabrina looked at Amara. "Your family must be worried sick about you because you failed to return home," she said.

    "Yes, they are..." Amara sighed. ''Except that no one will miss me if I''m gone missing for a long time because they''re already dead'' she said to herself.

    "What will you do if we can no longer leave this cave?" Sabrina asked her.

    Amara smiled. "Before my life ends, I will make sure you can get out of here," she told her in a serious tone.

    Sabrina looked at her, alarmed. "Don''t you dare die here inside the cave!" she said.

    Amara took a deep breath. "Why? You haven''t seen anyone dying before your very eyes?"

    Sabrina shook her head. "Not yet..."

    Amara smiled bitterly. "Your life is too sheltered," she commented.

    "Not really... I''ve been through a lot of hardship when I was a young kid. Only when I meet Grandma Azere my life took a new direction. I finally have someone who cares about my well being and guide me everyday," Sabrina said.

    "You really love your grandma. How about the other woman?" Amara asked.

    Sabrina''s brows knitted together. "What other woman?"

    "Your Grandma Azere has no friend? How about a lady friend?" Amara asked.

    Sabrina shook her head. "She told me that she had one lady friend but they''re not in good terms. But I never seen that friend of hers even once," she replied.

    "Ah, I see... just forget about my question." Amara said, she noticed a movement in the woods. "Look there! It looks like Rhett is coming!" she said pointing in the direction of the woods.

    Rhett stepped into the open, holding a bundle in his hand.

    Sabrina''s eyes twinkled in happiness, she''s excited to hug her beloved boyfriend again.

    Amara stood up. "Time to leave..." she said softly and walked away, going back to her chamber.. She doesn''t want to be the third well.
