(AVALON POV)
Why am I feeling so sad for him?
Because I care for him, there is no doubt in that.
Because I care for my enemy.
I stare at the sky, griping on to the water as I feel the burning gaze if the certain king before me.
He could just look away right?. Can't he? Could he simply stop staring at me, especially in that manner.
Like he was going to_ he cut me off my thoughts.
"I want you. I_ I can't keep this beast in me at bay any longer.
I know you still hate me because I already find out about your revenge and I kept it from you. Playing Ashter and Ares. And I don't expect you to forgive me right away. You deserve to think it through.
One thing I want you to understand is that I want you. I want to mark you mine, I can not control Ashter anymore. I can't use my magic to control him anymore."
He explained, I can't breathe. Oh heavens where are the fresh air I was enjoying and ravishing not too long ago.?
"Oh, why is the water so hot?". I muttered, earning a chuckle from Ares.
"Kiss me" I blurted without thinking. Ares growled deeply. Making my insides churn. I feel the butterflies in stomach grumbling.
"Oh my queen what has gotten into you?. Are you sure about this Revengeful heart of yours because you do not seem like you have a plan to bring me down which you can not" he says cockily. His lips twitching in amusement. I slapped his bicep angrily.
He suddenly grab my waist from the water so I am leveling with him.
"Yiu do not know how much I want to kiss you so badly." He says and hiss when finger graze his neck, his own hand going to my button, as I wrap my fragile leg around his waist.
Without wasting time we are kissing.
Passionately, hot, rough and demanding.
I want to feel every part of him. I want him to touch me in every parts of me.
Avalon Heaven when did you turn into a sex deprived girl. Not that I have ever had one though.
I lost composure, now feeling my bottom on the grass as I lay beneath Ares.
His eyes closed but mine aren't. I want to see him. I want to see how i make him feel.
Knowing I am affecting him the same way he is affecting me.
I love the way his well defined chest is rising and falling as he is breathing.
I feel him struggle with his own cloak on my body, his biceps tensing and relaxing the same time.
He grunt and I whimper as his lips leaves my mouth when he went to attack the crook of my neck.
Kissing, sucking and nibbling. His eyes meets mine, his eyes has changed into a golden color. And then changing back to it's original deep green color.
"It's going to hurt a little" his voice comes out rugged. My fingers moves to already disheveled dark hair breathing them in.
"Mark me Ares" I command not caring for anything in this world.
Traveling in the nightmare I am made of.
His fangs protudes and I smile seeing his beautiful parts of him.
His own real golden eyes , his green eyes belongs to Ashter for sure.
I let out a loud moan when I felt him bite me there. In my soft spot on my neck. His fangs goes deeper and I could feel hot tears dripping down my cheeks.
He has marked me.
Ashter, Ares Mickelson has marked me.
I am now his.
I belong to him alone, he has already stake his claim on me right now. Yes I am his bride and a queen.
But this matters more.
He begin to lick what I assume is the blood from his bite. And begin to soothe me. My body responds to his gestures.
Suddenly a loud sound came from within the woods.
I panicked, we are not alone. Someone else is with us.
Ares stare at me, sensing my uncomfortability.
He rises from my body, tossing me dress to me and not bothering to even give me some privacy to change into my gown as I passed him his wet cloak that I was wearing.
He also dressed quickly. And ran into the woods, my hand in his.
"Why don't we just ask who or what is in here".
I ask worriedly.
"No. I am a king, and you are a queen. We should have came with guards. We are not allowed to be seen walking alone in the woods, heavens forbid it if something happens to both of us. We are putting the life of the people of the kingdom Meth in greater trouble. " He explains making me grunt in reply. We were only enjoying and having our own time to our selves. Why come with guards.?
"I understand. But trust me the guards would give us our privacy and only maintain the perimeters. Protection us ofcourse" he tells me.
I get it now.
"So what are we searching for?".
"It is a who are we searching for"I could feel whole body tense in fear?.
As he is staring at something I can not see.
"Damn it down to hell. How the hell did he break loose"? He cursed angrily almost screaming.
This is the first time I am seeing these part of him.
Dark and eerie, in those beautiful eyes.
This time his eyes has changed to his real golden color.
You do not have to be told, for one before one knows that his green one belongs to his Lycan while the golden one belongs to him. His pure-blooded side.
Ares posseses alot of distinguished powers.
He is high LYCAN king. A pure-blooded wizard. The only Mickelson pure-blooded.
And that was why he needed to hurry and provide an heir who would carry on his clan's blood.
That was the answer to my unanswe questions.
Why he chose me as his bride. Why I was a perfect match is what I did not know yet.
One thing I know is that, he didn't only chose me after learning about my revenge towards him.
He has other reasons. Reasons only he knows.
"What are you staring at? I cannot see anything". I complain.
"That's because you do not have that damn sight!". He says, muttering profenities beneath his breath.
Okay, he is suddenly back to his Dark and eerie mode. I take note, knowing Ares, when he is like this I know better than to bother him so I stay quiet beside him.
"Avalon! If you want to see what I am seeing, you have to channel the rivers of your spirit. You have angel blood I am sure you know that, every Heavens clan are bestowed with angel blood. But you, my love, is more than just an Heavens clan. You are much more powerful. More powerful than you can ever imagine, so try to channel the rivers of your spirit. Your powers would awaking if you want it to." He explained.
I am stunned. Ares called me 'my love'.
Ares called me 'my love'.
I keep reciting in my head.
How did he know about my powers, though?.
Oh ofcourse how would he not?
He was the one who wiped out our clans leaving me alone.
He only spared my father because he was not an Heavens clan.
Because he was not bestowed with angel's blood.
So what was the point of awaking my powers for him?.
He who made me lonely.
Was this why there was the prophecy that I should not utilize my powers?.
No, I did not even understand the concept of the prophecy it self.
"You must not utilize your powers, but if you do, you would all fall, one by friend, one by foe and one by family".
I can do this. All I have to do is awaking my sight and not my powers. I had already tried awaking the core of my energy, and I did it successfully.
So I can do this. Perhaps the only way to understand the prophecy is to 'do' the prophecy. So as to know it's repercussions.
I concluded.
"Are you ready?" He asks and I nod frantically.
I can do this.
He held my hand and a bluish fire engulfs us. And we are both entranced.
Ares begins to chant in foreign languages. Latin to be precise.
I break my word, I am overly attracted to this man.
And no it does not hurt to be attracted to your potential foe.
"FOE" I breathed. In the prophecy foretold, my clan would fall my friend, foe and family.
Was he the foe?.
My mother fell by family. (My father's betrayal)
My sister fell by her friend (The Mickelson queen mother, mother of Ares Mickelson)
And I would fall by a foe(Ares Mickelson)?.
Breaking my chain of theory, Ares' chant suddenly stopped.
He ends with "...Whatever our souls are made of, you are in mine, and mine are in yours".
I feel different, powerfully different.
Was that of my power core?. I look at him puzzled.
"No stare at that" he commands. And I obliged.
What I am seeing now Is wat different from what I was seeing before.
There is a firely fluid on the leaves. Like a foot trace.
"What the hell is that".?
I questioned.
"Demon Ichor. There was a greater demon here. And you do not want to mess with this one."
He breathed, almost tensing up. Like he was terrified.
"He was the one who broke loose?".
I asked him, referring to what he had earlier said when he first saw it.
"Yes. Asmodeus Valac, a greater Demon. The ruthless prince of hell. My mother must have bargained with him in hell"
I stare at him petrified. He was not telling me something, as if sensing it, grunt and continues.
"He is here for you. After your powers. He must have sensed your blood when I marked you. And I swear if he so much as to try to hurt you I would_"
He was shaking now. His eye color is now golden.
"Hey it's okay. You are here for me. Right?. We can do this together! Fight this battle with me".
He relaxes as I touch him.
His fingers grazing my cheeks as he says.
"You, my love. I would protect. With my life". I am going to believe me.
And hope I do not fall by his hands, the hand of a foe.
Ares was the foe.
I cried.
