Legend Of The Winter Blade

Chapter 5

Alan didn't want to let Ellara hear who he was or even get the idea that he was someone of that kind of power before it was time for him to reveal it to her.

“So what did you find Ben?” Alan said as soon they were out of the room, he was looking at the man who came to give him the message.

“We found one of the five Wayne family heirlooms that was taken on the day the enemy took out your family, they are trying to sell it at an auction,” Ben was looking at Alan, he could see that there were signs of him being angry.

Alan was still shocked that they were thinking of selling his family heirloom in an auction and it was clear they had concluded that there was no one left in the family that would come back to take it back.

“So they really think they erased all of the Waynes like that? This is something I can work with.” Alan was muttering to himself when he got the news.

He turned to Ben, “So can you get me the information about this auction and where it is holding and the names of the families showing up there?”

Ben opened the file in his hand when he heard Alan's request and he knew that there was no way he would be able to tell him no like that.

“I have a clear number of the people going to attend the event, they invited a few prominent men but then the one name that is still a shock to me is the name of the man who has the intentions of selling the heirloom. I think his name will intrigue you sir,”

Ben handed the file to Alan, he looked into the book and he saw something that was very shocking to him and he knew that they were going to be having a ball at the auction.

“Interesting, I knew that I would have to bring some heavy armoury when I was coming back here.” Alan was looking at the name on the paper and he was sure that there was no way he would want to let them walk out of this alive.

“I believe you have already made arrangements for my getting into the Auction?” Alan was looking at Ben, he wanted to know what they were going to be doing next.

“Of course sir, everything has been sorted out, I just need you to get ready for the auction,” Ben said as he walked away too, pulling out his phone and it was clear he was going to be making a phone call.

Alan walked back into the room where he was going to talk to his wife and see how she was doing. He caught her still adoring herself in the mirror, it was still unclear how he was able to clear off scars that had been there all her life.

“I wonder what he did to make sure that there was no way for me to see any sign of the wounds I used to hide from the world and now I am fully healed like there was nothing on my body before. I don't know what I am going to call this,” Ellara was looking at her body in the mirror.

“Let’s call it a miracle,” Alan smiled as he looked at her.

His words stunned Ellara, she was not ready for Alan to walk into the room like that and she was lost in the moment.

Ellara turned to look at the man standing behind her with a smile on his face. She couldn't hide the fact that the man she almost pushed away was the one who did everything in his power to make sure that she was okay.

Ellara didn’t know what she was going to say to him but then there “I can't seem to thank you enough, even if it is a miracle, I need to thank you for giving me the chance to be able to look at the mirror and not want to break it.”

Ellara couldn’t look at Alan, she put her head down trying to make sure that there was no way he would be looking her in the eye.

Alan could only smile and look at the woman in front of him, it was something he had never imagined doing. He only had the intention to make sure that he would thank her for saving him from the car years ago.

Alan walked up to Ellara, he was not going to let her feel that bad with herself, it was going to be okay if she was going to be there with him.

“Ellara, I have something for you.” Alan stood in front of Ellara as he put his hands into his pocket and brought out an amulet.

It was a bit strange and looked like a relic from an ancient time, it was a necklace carrying the symbol of a mountain and a sword.

“Take this necklace, wear it anywhere you are going and if you ever feel like you’re in huge trouble make sure you will hold it. I will be there to make sure that there is nothing going to hurt you.” Alan smiled as he looked at Ellara, he was going to the auction and he wanted to make sure that there was no way for her to get hurt.

Ellara looked at Alan, she was confused. “Why are you giving this to me?” she asked, looking at Alan not letting anything hold her back from asking the question.

Alan smiled, he held her hand, and then said. “There is something i need to handle tonight, I will be back once I am done with it,”

Ellara was looking at Alan and all she could imagine was what would have happened if he was angered by her words then it would be a problem for her and he would not have done anything to heal her.

“Okay, I will be fine you can go handle whatever it is,” Ellara was smiling when she was looking at Alan.

Alan gave her a calm smile, “I will be back soon.”
