The girls run to the window and as soon as they moved open the peachy curtains that led to the small balcony, which was part of Emilia's bedroom, they saw none other than Azael.
"What are you doing here?" Emilia could not believe her eyes. Why did he not just used the door? He is always trying to make an entrance. All this were thoughts running thru her mind before rolling her eyes at the last thought that occurred to her. "Don't tell me that you missed Clem? You just saw each other not two hours ago."
"Aww sweetie you missed me?" Clementine smiled as she took her hands to her chest pressing down on where her heart should be.
Azael who was still on the outside on the balcony threw them both an irritating look.
"Mind letting me in before bombarding me with questions?"
"Oh, that's right. Hurry in before anyone sees you," Emilia did not even know why she was worried about anyone seeing Azael. Everyone at Elysium was aware of their close friendship and his relationship with Clementine, him being here was not a weird occurrence. But still Emilia hurried to open the door.
And as soon as Azael was inside, he hurried to lift Clementine up in his arms forcing her legs around his waist and while placing his strong hand on her warm neck on the area just below her ear. With cautious and sensual effort, he pulled her towards him. Clementine had no chance to react or to even think about what was going on and even before she could put a single thought together, he crashed his lips against hers and evolved her in a searing, demanding kiss.
Azael had no time for foreplay. He desperately invaded her mouth with his tongue and in return Clementine clutched her hand on his thick black hair pulling him closer to her, as if that was even possible.
Their tongues engaged in a knowing battle for dominance. Neither one of them wanting to give in to the other.
Emilia who was standing right next to them was stupefied and frozen on her spot. She could not believe Azael and Clementine for the matter. They were literally eating each other out without a care in the world, not minding that she was right there, literally right there and was very much able to see them.
"Hello! In case you two have not noticed I am right here," Emilia waved her hands In the air trying to get their attention.
After a few more seconds of a steamy make out session Azael retreated his lips from Clementine's. A string of saliva connecting both their mouths. This was such an erotic sight that got Azael hard beyond believe. Clementine for her part had her eyes closed. She was trying to desperately control the heat that had ignited within her. Her turmoil was evident on her face and body. She pressed her legs together tighter around Azael's waist trying to quiet the sensation between her legs. Feeling her legs tightening around him, Azael smiled loving the power he knew he had over Clementine's body. He then reached over and gave her a small peck on the lips breaking the saliva string that was connecting them. Without retreating and with his minty breath still as closed as ever he whispered for only her to hear, "I always miss you."
Clementine opened her eyes and locked eyes with him. She could not believe herself. In her mind she was already deeply and madly in love with Azael, but after this moment her feelings magnified to an impossible extreme.
"Ewwwwwwww!" Emilia could not help but blurred out breaking the magic of the beautiful moment between her friends. It was not that she was not used to the pda between her friends, but right now her heart was sensitive and seeing them be so lovey dovey just reminded her of what she wanted and could not have.
Clementine threw her a funny look of understanding, "Sorry," It was a whispered that was meant to let her know she understood her agony.
"You are just jealous," Azael was never going to change. He always said the first thing that came to his mind without a care in the world of the possible damage he could cause.
Emilia, however, was not having it. Today was not the day to mess with her. "You dame demon!"
"Oh, I see the gloves have come off today"
Azael put Clementine down and took a step towards Emilia.
He was challenging her and of course Emilia was not backing down. But as always before Azael could proceed Clementine pulled at his hand and made him halt.
Trying to change the focus of the room Clementine wanted to know why Azael was here "Babe, what are you doing here?"
"Yes, you know very well that tonight its girl's night. Clementine is all mine for the night." Emilia said this while pulling Clementine to a side hug as if shielding her from Azael. All the while sporting a wicked smile. She knew very well how to press his bottoms.
However, it looked like Azael remembered something and he had no time to engage in their usual bantering.
He turned his gaze towards the open window and the darkness that met him was a reminder that he was already late.
"I've come for you girls," His answer was simple and direct.
"What do you mean? Where are we going?" Clementine was intrigued, but not surprise. It was usual for Azael to want to go on random moonlight rides and just look for trouble.
"To the forbidden forest,"
"What do you mean to the forbidden forest?" Emilia was shocked to her core but then she quickly understood, "Given the fact that you are here it only means that you were not given permission to participate in tonight's expedition."
"And since when do I need permission to go to whatever place I want," another carefree answer.
"Azael, I don't be a child. You know that this is different." Clementine was all about enjoying the moment and going in adventures with him and Emilia, but even she knew that this was in another level.
"No, it's not, it is exactly the same. I am just here inviting you girls to go with me on a night stroll. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that." His nonchalant tone made it so believable that if Clementine did not know any better, she would have easily fallen for it.
"If your father finds out he will be furious, no wait if your brother finds out it will be the end of you." Even Clementine knew that you did not mess with Ezequiel.
"Come on Clem, you know that no matter what I do they always just see me as a little kid. They don't even try to trust me or include me."
"And I think they are right. Look at what you are doing right now. You are inciting us to go against your father and my father's command," Emilia was all for an adventure, but Azael was playing with fire.
"Emilia aren't you a bit curious. I know you want to go as well. I know you want to be involved and find out what's going on. Let's stop living in the shadows of my father and your father and let's do this." His initial carefree tone quickly turned into a pleading one. "I can't do this without you girls."
Emilia heard him and she could not deny that her adventurous spirit was slowly igniting. She wanted to be part of this. Everything that he had said was on point.
Clementine could clearly see the thrill that had materialized in Emilia's eyes. It was the same thrill that was reflected on Azael's stormy red eyes, but before this could advance any longer, she stepped in between them and with a resounding voice she yelled, "No! This is madness and I will not be a part of it or let you two disobey a direct order."
Emilia who acted as Clementine had said nothing, but gibberish moved to turn and sit on the edge of her bed. Her hand reached her mouth and using two of her fingers she started pinching her bottom lip.
"I did promise father," Emilia was remembering the conversation that she had with her father. She had promised to wait, to let this one go, "but…"
Clementine threw her head back and while starring at the ceiling a loud sight escaped her lips.
"I will not be a part of this," It sounded as if she was trying to convince herself more than them "You can't make me."
However, no matter how many times she repeated the same thing she knew very well that she could not and would not let them go by themselves.
Clementine was aware that her lack of powers made her the weaker amongst the three, but her skill with the sword did give her a good edge and it made possible for her to rival anyone.
