As we escaped the Water Temple, my mates surrounding me being protective and close.
In this quiet moments, Fenris's gaze locked onto mine, his eyes burning with desire.
"Clumsy" he whispered, his voice husky.
My heart skipped a beat as killer pulling me towards him while drawing his lips touching and teasing my lips. As I lick my lips our lips met in a tender kiss, the tension between us is palpable.
Lucian and Zeke watching while licking their lips, their face becomes soft with understanding.
Later, around a roaring campfire I sat between Lucian and Ezekiel.
Lucian's fingers intertwining with mine, his touch sending shivers down my spine.
Ezekiel's arm wrapping around my shoulders, pulling me close to him or should I say squeezing me.
"We're with you, always," Lucian whispered.
Ezekiel's lips brushed against my ear while leaving soft kisses "Forever."
As they say these wordsy heart swelled with love.
In the stillness of the night, surrounding by my mates, I felt safe its like this is the place i can live for eternity without thinking twice.
But the Shadow King's threat loomed, and our journey just start and the end point will be so difficult but whatever happens I will save my mates even if I have to sacrifice myself for them. I will do it without thinking for a heartbeat.
The next morning,as we set out for the Fire Temple.
As we start our journey, Kael's words echoed in my mind like a curse imprint -
"Trust no one."
Was Kael friend or foe? Or is he somewhere connected to the Shadow King.?? Even if he is connected to the Shadow King then we have to find out.!! Before he plan another move because always be sure. Who knows when or where we got backstab..!!
As we began our journey this journey is the hardest journey ever we faced the path is full of wound through treacherous mountains, fiery lava flows illuminating the dark.
Suddenly, Zeke stopped, his senses on high alert.
"What is it?" I asked.
"Something is off skön, it's like someone is here already it's not just us" Zeke replied.
A figure emerged from the shadows – a woman with piercing green eyes.
"Welcome, Esmeray," she said. "I've been waiting."
The mysterious woman's eyes seemed to bore into my soul while looking for something but what it is.!!
"Who are you?" I asked.
"I am Lyra," she replied. "A guardian of the Fire Temple."
Without waiting for our questioning look Lyra start walking leading us through the temple's fiery depths.
As we start walking following her, she left us in a chamber to wait while she prepare everything . As she left immediately i felt Lucian's hand on my lower back, his touch sending shivers to my core.
Fenris walked beside us, his gaze burning with desire.
Ezekiel's eyes locked onto mine, his love shining bright.
That night, within the temple's sacred chambers, my mates surrounding me ready to devour me.!! As I am a meal for them. The moment I know my true self we didn't have any chance to talk about our mates bond. But the way they are looking towards me I know they are more than my mates it's like we have an eternal connection.
Their hands start exploring my body their lips brushing against my skin.
In the heat of the moment, my powers surged and not only that my hair start changing to snow ice. Just like my mirror reflection.
The Fire Crystal, sensing our love and desire, it's began to glow.
"Take us," as i whispered, my voice husky.
Lucian's lips is the one who claimed first, as he claimed my lips Fenris hands start exploring my curves.
Zeke kisses start trailed down my neck, sending shivers to my body.
Our unconditional love became one, a flame burning bright.
In the aftermath,my powers explode.
The Fire Crystal shattered, its fragments imbuing my body with ancient power.
As I stood tall,my three handsome mates by my side. Our bond become more powerful and unbreakable. As we hear the footsteps separating ourselves from the moment we just sit and wait for Lyra. But I can feel the Shadow King's darkness are closing in. As she barged in the chamber ---
"The final battle awaits," Lyra warned. Just be ready for anything. Only your love for each other and the soul power only can conquer the shadows.
My mates surrounding me ,their love for me shining bright.
She left to talk about more after some time because we were tired of constant fighting and travelling.
In the sacred chambers of the Fire Temple, we celebrate our bond.
Lucian's hands again start exploring my curves, Fenris's lips tracing my neck.
Ezekiel's gaze lock with mine, his love for me is a burning fierce.
Their touches igniting a flame, consuming my whole body.
"Forever," Lucian whisper, his lips claiming mine.
Fenris's hands start roaming, sending shivers down my spine.
Ezekiel's kisses deepened, our love merging as one.
In the heat of the moment, our powers surging together becoming more stronger.
The temple's ancient magic responded, enveloping us. Our love became a blazing inferno, consuming all.
Afterward, as i lay between my mates, sated and content.
Lucian's arm wrapped around mine belly, Fenris's hand on my hip holding firmly.
Ezekiel's lips against my ear whispering "Our love is unbreakable Snowcup."
I smile, my heart full of love for this three gorgeous man.But our sweet tranquility was short-lived.The Shadow King's darkness gathered, threatening to extinguish our flame. Days passed, and we start exploring the temple's secrets.
Lyra taught me how to harness my powers. My mates never leaving my sides they start training with me too. Although they don't need it because they are already powerful in their own clan. Together our bond become more stronger. And deep down I know that the Shadow King's darkness gathering around us somehow because his patience wearing thin.
One night, as we sat together, Fenris spoke.
"We should take a break from training," he said. "Let's just enjoy each other company before the final battle unleashed."
Lucian nodded. "Okay then what about A night of pleasure, no worries."
Ezekiel smiled. "I have an idea."
He led them to a hidden pool, surrounding by candles.
The water shimmering and inviting.
"Tonight, we focus on love," Ezekiel whisper.
Lucian smiles, his hands start tracing my curves.
Fenris's lips claimed mine, while his kiss is deepening.
As we love and kiss, the pool's waters start glowing. Our bond becoming strong, a flame burning bright around us.
I felt cherished, surrounded by my mates. Our love became a symphony, each moment a crescendo. Later, as we lounged by the pool, Lucian spoke.
"Snowcup, we've never discussed our future."
My heart skipped a beat as usual. "What do you mean?"
Lucian's eyes locked onto mine. "Children, a family."
Fenris nodded. "We want to build a life together."
Ezekiel smiled. "With you, our queen."
My heart swelled. "I want that too, but right now just focus on defeating the shadow King, after that we will have that conversation." They all nooded. Our love grew, a foundation for our future.
One night, as we sat together, a figure appeared.
"A messenger from the Shadow King," he said, his voice trembling.
My mates stood tall, ready for everything.
"The Shadow King demands your surrender," he continue.
My heart hardened. "Tell him I'll never surrender."
The messenger fled, leaving an ominous warning:
"The Shadow King will destroy all you hold dear." Lyra replied.
And I nod knowing the consuquences then another sudden return to reality. My mates exchanging their worried glances.
"Final exams?" Lucian asked, incredulous.
Fenris groaned. "We completely forgot."
Ezekiel rubbed his temples. "We can't fail our courses."
Esmeray sighed. "We have to go back to college."
Lyra appeared, a hint of amusement on her face.
"Your education is crucial," she said. "The world needs knowledgeable heroes."
My mates nod and reluctantly leaving the chamber start packing their bags. As we left the Fire Temple, i felt a pang. Our adventure have to wait a little, reality intruded.
Back at college, they dove into study mode.
Late-night cram sessions, coffee-fueled study groups.
My mates struggled to balance academics and their secret lives.But my and Fenris determination drove them.
"We can't save the world if we fail our exams," i reminded them.
Our friends noticed the change in us and not only that our constant disappearing too.
"What's going on with you guys?" My friend, Daisy asked.
My mates exchanged nervous glances.
"Just stressed about exams," Lucian replied.
Daisy raised an eyebrow. "You guys were gone for weeks. What were you doing?"
My heart skipped a beat. One wrong answer and our secret will be no more secret. We have answer with cautious because it's not the right time to tell them. But of we told them they won't understand our situation maybe..
"Anyway Guys, you're so focused," Daisy said. "What's driving you?"
Lucian smiled. "Just want to ace our exams."
Fenris nodded. "And make our families proud."
Ezekiel's eyes locked onto Esmeray. "And our queen Skön" *wink*
Daisy smile knowing the situation perfectly.And thankfully she didn't asked any further questions.!!
Our secret remain hidden, but our bond was evident. As exams approached, tension mounted. My mates sat beside me their hands intertwine with my hand. Together, we are ready to face the challenges of college life too just like the power world.
One night, as we are studying my phone buzzed.
A cryptic message: "The Shadow King's patience wears thin."
My heart hardened. "We can't let him win."
My mates nodded, determination burning in their eyes. Exams loomed closer, tension mounting as me and my mates poured over notes and textbooks, their hands intertwine. But the Shadow King's presence lurked, patiently waiting, his dark influence spreading across the campus like a shroud.
Another night, as we are studying Fenris's phone buzzed, shrill in the silence.
"A mysterious package arrived," he said, frowning, his brow furrowed in concern.
We opened the package, revealing a dark crystal, its facets glinting menacingly in the light.
"From the Shadow King," Lucian growled, his voice low and menacing.
Ezekiel's eyes narrowed, his mind racing with possibilities. "A warning or a trap?"
My heart hardened, my jaw set in determination. "We won't back down."
Suddenly, Daisy appear, concern etched on her face, her eyes wide with fear.
"Guys, I've noticed strange occurrences on campus," she said, her voice barely above a whisper.
My mates exchanged worried glances, their faces set in identical expressions of concern.
"Tell us," I urged, her voice soft and encouraging.
Daisy hesitate, her eyes darting nervously around the room. "Disappearances, eerie whispers... I've seen shadowy figures lurking in the corridors."
My grip on my mates' hands tighten, a surge of protectiveness coursing through my veins.
"We'll investigate," Lucian vowed, his voice firm and resolute.
As we delved deeper, we uncovered a dark conspiracy, the Shadow King's influence spreading like a cancer, infecting students and faculty members.
Fenris's gentle kiss on my forehead, his lips soft and warm. Lucian's hand on my waist, pulling me close, his touch sending shivers down my spine. Ezekiel's whisper promise: "We'll protect you, always.
Creeping shadows in abandoned corridors, the air thick with malevolent energy. Whisper threats in the darkness, the words indistinguishable but the malice clear. Mysterious symbols etched into campus walls, pulsing with dark power. But his next move looming like a specter on the horizon.
My mates exchange nervous glances.
"Guys, we need to tell Daisy and the others," I said, my voice is firm.
Lucian nodded. "They deserve to know."
Fenris's eyes locked onto mine. "Are you sure?"
My heart swelled with love. "They're our friends. We trust them."
Ezekiel smiled. "And they'll help us uncover the truth."
Daisy eyes widened as we revealed our secret.
"You're... magical?" she whisper.
I nod. "We're guardians, tasked with defeating the Shadow King."
Our friends listen, awestruck, as we share our story.
Daisy eyes sparkled. "This is epic!"
Josh face lit up. "We're in this together, right?"
Josh expression turned serious. "We'll help you take down the Shadow King."
Our friends' support and enthusiasm lifted my spirits. Together, we formed a plan to investigate the conspiracy.
