Cyra held her breath due to the stench that filed the forest. It was really bad. Andreas and Farima didn’t even flinch as they were used to the stench.
“Calm down Cyra, we are close to the palace.” Andreas said, he was already getting irritated by her continues noises.
“It’s mating season” Farima said. Cyra raised a brow at her.
“No, it’s not what you think Cyra. No s*x is involved in this.” Farima said as they walked out of the forest.
“What’s mating season?” She asked instead. Andreas was not in the mood for this discussion because he was angry about the fact that they couldn’t find the book of gems. What a waste of time, he thought.
“It’s a season where all the young adults creatures of the supernatural world are given a spouse.” Andreas cringed inside. He hated the mating season and hopped he doesn’t end up with a spouse like last year.
“Including myself?.” Cyra half yelled. Andreas rolled his eyes of course and walked ahead of them.
“Yes, hopefully you’ll get a spouse this week.” Farima said happily. Andreas paused for a second as he felt the wind get stronger.
“We have to find a shade. It’s going to rain soon.” He said.
“Dammit, we cannot use our powers!” Farima cursed as she was about to cast a spell. She refrained, she didn’t want to meet the angry faces of the forest creatures.
“Over there would be nice.” Andreas pointed at a cave that stood in the forest.
“How are we sure it’s safe?.” Farima asked.
“You have the chosen ones with you, we’ll protect you.” Andreas said. Farima nodded. Cyra on the other hand was left wondering why they couldn’t just run to the palace because they were close. It was actually annoying. She met Andreas gaze and he immediately looked away. He kept a straight face as he led them into the cave. On cue, the rain began to full heavily.
“Lights!” Andreas half yelled and the lanterns in the cave immediately lit itself. Cyra sighed, the cave looked empty and clean. They all sat on a dry spot in the cave. Andreas sat really far away from them, he didn’t want to get involved in their gist.
“So how do you know your spouse?.” Cyra asked.
“The tingling connection and the sparks. One amongst you must feel it” Farima said.
“Why just one person?.” She asked.
“Well the spouse connection is only stronger when the first person cares truly about the other.” Farima said.
“So that first person to have feelings get the sparks?.” Cyra asked and Farima nodded.
“That’s crazy. What if I refuse to tell him I felt the sparks?.” Cyra asked.
“Then his name shall appear on your arm. And yeah, same for him. Your name will also appear on his neck.” She said.
“That’s stupid” Andreas finally spoke. He had been listening to them and couldn’t help but chip in. “What If I decide to cover the name, how would my spouse know I am her husband?.” He asked sternly.
“When you find out she’s yours to take. Then you will know what will happen.” Farima gave him a very calm reply. He simply just rolled his eyes. His blue eyes turned darker when it fell on Cyra, she noticed the change in color and immediately looked away, his eyes were intimidating.
“Farima, I can’t wait to see your husband. Do you have any one in mind?.” Cyra asked Farima nervously. Andreas look was disturbing to her. She knew he was still staring at her. He was really handsome when he stared at her like that, she felt her body tense up with heat. He had never had that impact on her before, what was the demons gaze doing to her.
“I do not have anyone in mind for now. But I do hope I get someone special and nice.” Farima said happily. Cyras gaze dared to shift to the demon troll and his eyes were closed but immediately flew open when he felt her gaze on him.
“Andreas do you think you’ll get a wife?.” She asked nervously.
“I do not need a woman in my life.” He said sternly.
“Why do you say so?.” Farima asked.
“You women cause nothing but destruction where ever you go. I do not need someone to cause me pain.” He said. Cyra rolled her eyes at him.
“Cyra I really can’t wait to see who you get.” Farima said.
“Ah, Nooo, I do not want anyone. Not here” She said.
“You want a human huh?” Farima asked and she nodded. “What is so special about humans?.” She asked.
“They are not always grumpy and are nice to ladies unlike so people.” Andreas knew he was being referred to but emotionless. He couldn’t wait for the rain to stop.
“Hahaha, Really?. But the supernatural beings are very romantic and nice. I’m sure Prince Andreas is the only mystic young man you’ve met.” She said. Andreas shot Farima a very deadly glare. Farima immediately looked away.
“Yeah he is, I wish to meet more.” He looked stunned for a while when she uttered but as usual, he showed no care. He sat motionless.
“When we get to the city, I’ll take you out to meet lot of people. My friend Judas will be happy to see you, I’ve told him a lot about you and he’s dying to meet the powerful chosen one.” Farima said.
“You have a lot of friends right?.” Cyra asked and she nodded.
“Plenty of them.” Farima Said.
“Oh rain, please stop!” Cyra said and the rain immediately paused. She was indeed shocked by what happened, not just her. Both Andreas and Farima were as well.
“I see your powers are getting stronger.” Andreas commended while standing to his feet.
“That was so amazing.” Farima said. She also stood up along with Cyra.
“Yeah, how did I do that?.” She looked at Andreas and he shrugged.
“It seems your powers does not anger the forest. Please cast a spell for us to teleport out of here.” Andreas said. She nodded and did as told. They all teleported into Cyras room. She smiled happily, she was really happy to be in her sweet domain. She couldn’t wait to go see her father.
“Cyra I’ll come pick you up for the party by 8pm, get some rest and make sure you dress rakishly.” Farima said before teleporting out of Cyras room. Her gaze then fell on Andreas, she wondered what he wanted and rose a brow.
“Do not go to that party.” He said very calmly.
“Why?” She asked with her hand on her hips at Akimbo.
“Because it is not safe for you.” He said.
“And how isn’t it?.” She raised a brow.
“You can get sexually abused there.” He said and resisted the urge to gasp. She then decided to act as if she didn’t care she rolled her eyes.
“I’m a chosen one, I can deal with them if they try anything.” She said boldly.
“Not when your drugged princess.” He said.
“No such thing will happen on my watch.” She said. Andreas immediately mind linked her dad and he appeared in front of them.
“What is it Andreas?.” Her father immediately asked.
“Your highness, you daughter wants to attend the Vampire princes party.” He said. King Zardos immediately turned to Cyra.
“You will do no such thing.” Her father said.
“But I want to have fun father.” She pouted.
“We can have fun over here my princess. Please I do not want you in the company of those people.” Her father deadpanned.
She saw how serious he looked and decided to nod sadly in agreement. This touched the kings heart and he turned to Andreas.
“My dear, will you do me a favor by accompanying her there?.” Indeed, Andreas wasn’t happy with his request but nodded nevertheless. He couldn’t just let the poor princess go out herself in trouble by attending the stupid party alone.
“Of course your highness, I’ll accompany you daughter.” He said and Cyra couldn’t help but hiss angrily. She was really hot happy about the fact that Andreas would be accompanying her. She couldn’t even tell her father that Farima would follow her because she knew her dad disliked the Ogres as much as prince Andreas did.
“Have fun dear, I have a meeting to end. When I get back, do tell me all about the party.” Her father said before disappearing.
“I am not going anymore, please get out of my room.” She said to the demon troll. Andreas simply rolled his eyes.
“Trust me, I never wanted to go with you.” He said. Suddenly the presence of Farima was made known by her as appeared in the room wearing a really beautiful dress.
“Sorry I came early. I need your advice, should I wear a blue shoe or just a plain white shoe?.” Farima asked.
“You look so beautiful Farima.” Cyra said happily as she stared at how lovely her friend looked in her dress.
“Why are you not getting ready?.” She asked.
“I’ve changed my mind about going.” Cyra said.
“Why?.” Farima asked sadly.
“My dad wants Andreas to follow” She said. Farima chuckled. She knew her father wasn’t a fan of the demon troll.
“Andreas do you want to come along?.” Farima asked and he nodded in he negative. He wasn’t in anyway interested in any useless party. He thought.
“Okay let’s just make this deal. We’ll mind link you when we need your help, or that okey with you?” Farima asked. He nodded. He wasn’t in the mood to talk so he vanished.
“He’s so weird.” Cyra said and Farima couldn’t agree more.
“Go take your bath and I’ll help you make a beautiful enchanting dress.” Farima said. Cyra giggled happily before running off into the bathroom. She took a very warm Bath and came out wearing a towel.
“Here’s your dress. We are twinning!” Farima said happily. She held a beautiful blue in her hand. The dress reminded Farima about Andreas. s**t, she felt her core go here. Damn, she became wet with just the thought of him.
“Are you okay?.” Farima asked worriedly.
“I am.” She said.
“Are you certain?.” Farima dropped the dress on the bed.
“It’s Andreas, something is wrong with me.” She said.
“Oh my God! It’s the mating!” Farima said.
“Hell, no.” She said. “There’s no way I liked Andreas first.” She said.
“Maybe you just don’t know it yet. Think about it, you are always around him. You might just be in love, who knows?.” Farima said.
“Your thoughts are disgusting.” She said and Cyra chuckled.
“Anything can happen Cyra. Andreas isn’t even as bad as he seems, I’m certain you will make beautiful trolls.” She said and Cyra immediately threw a pillow at her and Farima couldn’t help but burst into laughter. She was enjoying her facial expression.
“How do you feel when you think about him?.” She asked.
“I get wet. I feel really aroused.” She said. Farima chuckled.
“Seriously?. This is is cute!” Farima said happily.
“So you are wet now?.” She asked.
“A little.” Cyra said and Farima laughed.
“The only man that makes me this wet is Judas. The vampire prince.” Farima said.
“You like him?.” She asked her.
“I f**k him.” Farima said. Cyra chuckled.
“Tell me, have you ever been f****d?” Farima asked.
“No,” she said. “I want to get laid so bad though.” She said. Farima chuckled.
“The Virgin jitters huh?.” She asked and Cyra nodded.
“What says the time?” She asked Farima.
“It’s 7:55” She said. She casted a spell that got Farima ready. Farima then created a mirror and then looked at her self in it.
“You look so lovely.” Farima said. She held Cyras arm and they teleported into a big party hall filed with different types of supernatural beings. Cyra looked around happily. The place indeed looked really nice.
“This is so niceee.” She said to Farima.
“There’s Judas.” Farima pointed at a handsome Vampire. His face reminded her about Andreas. They kinda looked alike.
“Why does he look like Andreas a little?” She asked.
“He’s a amalgam just like you, A Demon troll and a vampire. He is Andreas cousin.” She said and Cyras mouth went agape.
“Cousin?.” She asked and Farima nodded.
“No wonder he hates him.” She said.
“They don’t actually talk.” She said. “Trust me, you do not know Andreas as much as you think. He has a dreadful past he doesn’t speak off.” Farima said. Cyra felt her heart flop, she wondered if he was doing okay in the inside.
“Judas!” Farima yelled and the vampire immediately appeared in front of them.
“Hey Farima.” Judas didn’t waste time to place a kiss on her forehead.
“And who is the pretty troll?” Judas asked.
“She’s the chosen one!” She said and Judas bowed his head in respect.
“Nice to see you at my party.” He said. She smiled happily. He picked her arm slowly in other to peck it but suddenly, The demon troll appeared and held his arm. Indeed Cyra was shocked to see Andreas.
“Cousin, you are here as well?.” Judas said.
“Don’t you dare touch her.” Andreas said possessively. Oh, Cyra felt her core got wet. She like the fact that he cared about her.
“Is she your spouse?” Judas asked. Andreas did not speak, he simply turned his attention to Cyra and pulled her away leaving Farima and Judas to talk.
“That cousin of yours is so funny.” Farima chuckled. Judas rolled his eyes.
Cyra on the other hand stared at Andreas as he dragged her to a room. She didn’t understand what was going on but like his hold on her skin.
“What are you doing?.” She yanked her arms away from him roughly.
“That’s a vampire, one kiss on you and he can hurt you really bad.” He said. She felt taken aback a bit.
“Thank you.” She said.
“You’re welcome.” He said. His blue eyes making her feel warmth. “I can smell your arousal, don’t tell me you are wet for that i***t!”
