Sienna watched the eagles worriedly. The army was ready, but they will be shot like a fish in the barrel by flying eagles. Even Sharchan could not get them high in the sky.
"Adenou, let Sarcos take over for a bit. The Dark Eagles are attacking!"Sienna called in a panic."I see you again, you have my word. Just do it, please!"
Suddenly King Aiden descended near them, sitting on the other eagle warrior, just a bit enough to not get trapped." Immortal, give me the queen, or you all die here. She does not belong to you anyway!"His red eyes were shining in excitement. He knew he got the upper hand. He was holding big bow in his hand nonchalantly.
Sienna stared at the dark eagle." I do not belong to you eighter, you sold me already!" she called to him.
Aiden looked at Sienna with a subtle smile. She looked so innocent in the white silken tunic. He was imagining her in his bed again and licked his lips."Come out on the tower balcony little tigress, I will pick you up from there if you want to save the Sand City!"
Sienna looked at Aiden." You have no mercy Aiden. I know you will destroy the city anyway." she try to stall him a bit.
Adenou was confused, it was too much going on. He knew he could not defeat the eagles by himself, but was worried to change with Sarcos. His soul stared at the Flaming Scorpion in his mind.
"Do it!" said Sarcos to Adenou.
"You let me change back after this fight." Adenou negotiated.
"You have my word!" said Sarcos."Hurry up and go to the crystal on your neck, just for a little bit."
"You can't trap me in that, it is not strong enough."Adenou smiled.
"I know, I'm not trying to trick you. I need to save the Sand City and our queen."
"Our queen?"Adenou asked suspiciously.
"Yes, our queen, as long you are in my body, she is our queen. Now, get out before Aiden will snatch her again!" said Sarcos.
Adenou went to the small black crystal. The blue light shone at Sarcos's chest. Sarcos took over his body. The Flaming Scorpion appeared in his eyes just in time to catch an arrow Aiden shot at him.
Aiden ordered a few of his warriors to pick Sienna up with a long ropes with loops, similar to lassos. Tyrell and Sharchan were running around with swords, cutting the ropes and trying to pull the eagles on the ground.
"This is enough!" said Sarcos."King Aiden, you was my friend and now you betrayed me. You attacked my city and try to steal my queen. You have three minutes to leave with your armies." Sarcos said seriously.
Aiden saw the Flaming Scorpion in Sarcos's eyes."King Sarcos, finally! Is too late now, I'm taking over. " he laughed and signalled his men to shoot the first round of arrows.
Sarcos clapped his hands and created a strong power field over the city. It pushed Aiden and his men back up to the sky. None of their arrows landed in the city. The whole city of scorpions cheered in joy as the arrows slid down the power field.
Aiden became a bit more wary of Sarcos's powers and flew out of the way. He let his armies attack, but the arrows could not pass the field at all.
"You have two minutes to save your men," called Sarcos to Aiden.
" In your dreams!" Aiden laughed." You can't hold the shield forever. I will just wait till you got tired."
Sarcos counted two minutes and clapped his hands again. The burning eagles started to fall down from the sky and slide down the power field behind the city walls.
Sienna covered her eyes, it was not a pretty sight. Sharchan, Tyrell and Ziran stared, they were happy to be on Sarcos's good side.
Aiden watched in horror and ordered his men to flee away from the city.
Adenou's soul watched from the crystal on Sarcos's chest. The crystal was blocking the sound, but he could see thru a circle shaped screen."This is what I call power," the immortal sighed. He felt quite safe watching in the crystal. He felt the weak crystal will shatter soon. He understood, why Sarcos was quiet for so long and let him act in his body. Only Sarcos was strong enough to contain him in his body as well.
Sarcos defeated the eagles and took Sienna to his embrace."I can't stay with you yet."He kissed her deeply."Tell Adenou to train more. He needs to level up to stop these possessive moods."
"He is unwilling, "Sienna sighted.
Sarcos nodded thinking."Tell him, that from tomorrow my men will start attacking him randomly to help him level up his inner strength, so he doesn't have scorpion's possessiveness episodes like this one." Sarcos smiled and kissed Sienna's neck gently." Forgive him please and mate with him, I can't wait to have you again."Sarcos rasped quietly to her. Sienna nodded. Sarcos captured her lips in a lingering kiss and let Adenou take over again.
Sienna understood, why Sarcos said her to mate. Of course, he missed her, but he also needed to find out who Adenou is.
Adenou looked at Sienna, she was still hugging him. He licked his lips and ran his hands on her golden hair. Sarcos's body was reacting to her. He picked her up and went to his room to mate. Sienna thought of Sarcos and surrendered to Adenou enjoying Sarcos's body. She needed to keep him entertained so Sarcos can search his mind.
Sharchan and Tyrell looked after Adenou as he carried Sienna away and sighted. Ziran followed after Adenou to guard Sienna. Rem went to check on the city and to see what happened to the Dark Eagle warriors at city walls and gates.
Adenou finished mating with Sienna and held her in his embrace. He felt light and satisfied. He missed her a lot. He looked at Sienna curiously."Is not Sarcos upset you mate with me?"
Sienna shook her head." He knows I like you too." she whispered.
"What kind of strong love is this? He doesn't mind sharing you till you are happy." Adenou shook his head.
"Well you still have his body anyway, so he can see me too and if you think about it, it is a similar kind of love you expect from females in your harem. If you get one." Sienna pointed his finger at him playfully.
" But females are different," Adenou noted.
Sienna shook her head." Heart is heart, doesn't matter if male or female, they both love." she smiled.
"So why did you accept so many mates?"
"Well, Sharchan and Tyrell I had to accept as you know. And Sarcos just took me after. I just fell in love with him and accepted him too. He is the strongest of my mates."
Adenou nodded." I imagined it more romantic."
"Life is not always so romantic as your poems. That is why people need poems. To make life more romantic." Sienna smiled and kissed Sarcos's strong back. His muscular body was so alluring to her.
"Are you provocating me? "Adenou caught her in his embrace. He had always mad taste to mate with her.
Sienna shook her head playfully."I will never dare!"
Adenou squeezed her buttock."Too late, I'm taking you again!"
Sienna giggled and looked into his eyes. They were dark, deep and lustful." Pity, there is no Flaming Scorpion in them," she thought," or at least the stars as in Xander's ones." she thought a bit shocked with herself and giggled again. Sienna spend the rest of the day in bed with Adenou. He was tired from mating and fell asleep peacefully next to her. Sienna cuddled up next to Sarcos's strong body and drifted to dreamlands as well.
At night Sarcos woke as a huge black scorpion with Rem's help and went to address his armies." I need you to help me train more. Therefore, you will be coming in groups to my castle and attacking me randomly with any weapons you like without notice. The only rule is you can't hurt my queen." he ordered to them and then he thought for a second and smiled." But you can try to steal her from me. If anyone will manage to steal the queen, he will win a big chest of gold." Sarcos announced.
The scorpion soldiers nodded excitedly."This will be fun!"They had a great love for their king and were happy to help him.
Sienna woke up in the late morning in Adenou's embrace." Adenou," she smiled at him," today your training starts. You need to level up your inner strength, so expect your men to attack you at any time. Anyone except Ziran and Rem."
"What? "Adenou said. Sienna touched his shoulder gently."You need to level up. You do not like to practise fights on the training grounds, so you will be training non-stop." she smiled.
"What if they injure you?"Adenou furrowed his brows.
" You need to protect me then!" She smiled. Ziran will keep me safe when you are not with me. They will be not attacking him."
Adenou stretched in the bed."I do not like this idea."
Sienna sigted."You have no choice."
"How can Sarcos think he can order me around?" Adenou raged a bit.
"He can order anyone around. Just go with it, "Sienna smiled."He is actually trying to help you. You will be stronger and more fierce if you level up."
Adenou sighed and pressed her head on his chest."At least I can order you around, darhling."
Sienna bit her lip." Not for long now, I hope!"She thought. He always knew how to hurt her heart. She felt so stupid for forgiving him, but she did it for Sarcos anyway. And she did not like to hold a grudge, even Adenou was too much sometimes."If it makes you so happy." she smiled a bit bitterly.
