Love Beyond Realms 10: Stay With Me
MIKAEL The horror that filled Blair's hazel eyes didn't go unnoticed by me when I asked her who Altan was. I was desperate for answers, but the look on her face made me feel guilty. She looked so scared and heartbroken. Still, it didn't make any sense. Earlier, while I had fallen asleep in my study, I had dreamt another strange dream. Like always, I'd dreamt about my look-alike. This time, his name had been Altan. I didn't understand why there was this sudden aggressive desperation to know the truth. I was struggling to keep calm, but I also knew I was failing miserably."Won't you give me an answer?" I asked, my gaze unwavering. She swallowed hard, refusing to make direct eye contact with me. "W-what? I don't know what you're talking about" she responded. "I don't think so" I countered. She stiffened."I told you... I don't know what you're talking about. I don't know who Altan is. I haven't heard the name before" There was something about the way she was desperately trying to
Love Beyond Realms 11: Stolen Kisses
I wonder if your milky white skin still feels the same.I wonder if your soft pink lips still taste like strawberries. I miss you and it's getting hard to stay away from you. ---------------------------------------BLAIR. " Altan" I breathed, my eyes filling up with hot tears. As I gazed into the depth of his indigo eyes, my heart ached in my chest. Shakily, I brought my hand to the side of his face. "How-" I breathed, a frown creasing my brows. It felt strange that he had suddenly changed from being Mikael to the Altan I'd first fallen in love with. It wasn't supposed to happen so quickly. We were supposed to gradually fall in love with each other. If everything had been brought to a faster pace, it meant we barely had any time. In order to confirm this, I rolled up the sleeve of my T-shirt, grief welling up inside of me when I saw that the rose had bloomed on my skin. It had not turned blue yet. But, I couldn't help but worry. "Al
Love Beyond Realms 12: Let Me In
You don't always have to be strong all by yourself.Let me be your anchor.---------------------------------------BLAIR I had been watching Mikael for the past few days. He seemed a little lost, what with his life transforming overnight. He had hidden the change in the color of his eyes by putting on contacts. But, there was no way he could explain how the scar on his face had miraculously vanished, leaving behind no sign that it had once been there. All the same, he was more of a mix of the Altan I'd first known and the 21st century Mikael Kane. He seemed to be unable to take his eyes off me and he would smile at me each time our gazes locked. The rest of the employees found it odd, but they didn't have the courage to point it out. Mikael would steal kisses from me, making my heart flutter even when I tried not to let it. Two days ago, he asked me out on a date and I agreed to go out with him. We ate together in an expensive, new restaurant and we talked about random things. N
Love Beyond Realms 13: Knife To The Heart
BLAIR Shocked couldn't completely define the look on Mikael's face when I told him that he had summoned me himself. He couldn't remember it yet, but he used to be able to control the weather, way back when he still used to be Altan in the underworld. So, summoning me shouldn't be much of a surprise. "I summoned you? That's not possible" I smiled, entwining my fingers with his. "Mikael you used to have the ability to control the weather in the underworld. Why can't you believe that you actually summoned me?" I said and he silently stared at me for a moment. "It's because I don't remember ever having the ability to summon people. I had the ability to control the weather and create mental or physical shields. But, that's it"I frowned, reaching up to cup his face. "Look at me, Mikael. There's no cause for alarm. Your powers are simply growing" I told him and his brows creased up. "Simply growing? Why now? Why didn't these additional powers show up before now? What if I lose
Love Beyond Realms 14: Of Roses And Thorns
There'll be oceans for us to tread, There'll be bridges for us to mend,But I'll stick to it,I swear.---------------------------------------BLAIR Mikael and I stared at each other, the tension in the air crackling. His question had caught me utterly unawares. I couldn't fathom how he'd discovered that killing myself had become the only way to escape the misery I felt, each time I lost the love of my life.Upset, he slammed his palm against the wall."Damnit, Athena! That wasn't supposed to become a part of you!" He exclaimed and I lowered my gaze."I couldn't bear it" I said, my gaze fixed on the ground."I couldn't bear the pain of losing you. I just couldn't do it, Altan" I croaked. I felt him approach me and lift my chin, tilting my head backwards a little. Our gazes met and I saw the mind numbing pain in his eyes."Altan-""Sh!" He whispered, brushing my hair out of my eyes. "If losing me caused you so much pain, I suggest you stayed away from me, because you might lose
Love Beyond Realms 15: Scent Of Water
The Underworld,Seven Centuries Ago, "Are you sure you know where we going? It feels like we're heading towards Poseidon's territory" Altan said to Athena who was all smiles."We just have to be quiet. What's the worst thing that can happen?" She chirped. "Oh, I don't know? We can actually get caught"Athena held a hand to her mouth to stifle a chuckle. "Come on, Altan. You're always telling me to loosen up. Why are you so uptight about this?" She said and he sighed. "I'm just being careful. I don't care if I get caught, but I'm worried that you might get caught""Awwn. Why are you so cute?" Athena cooed and he playfully rolled his eyes. "Come on, just a little more" she added and he sighed. "I can't believe we're doing this" She shrugged. "We need to find it together. It will certainly make our love and bond stronger" she said and he snorted. He knew she was a sucker for things like that. "Whatever you say, miss" "Altan! Get over here! I've found it!" She whispered
Love Beyond Realms 16: Bittersweet
LORENZO Multicolored lights illuminated the bar I'd walked into, three hours ago. Music played in the background and I zoned out on my stool. I stared at my glass of vodka for a moment. Then, I picked it up and downed it's content. Sighing, I ran my fingers through my hair. After leaving Mikael's home, there was one question on my mind. A question that I couldn't get the answer to. I'd stayed up last night, trying to figure out why Hera had chosen to get me reincarnated in this life time. Don't get me wrong, I want to live. But, what if the reason I was reincarnated, is to stop Mikael from being free from the curse? What if I was supposed to become Hera's secret weapon? These thoughts made me feel incredibly uneasy. Not that I could help it. "Hello, gorgeous" I turned to look at the woman now standing beside me, with a beautiful smile on her face. Her turqoise dress was sleeveless and it glittered under the lights. Her blonde hair was in a high ponytail and she was wearing b
Love Beyond Realms 17: Broken glass
I'll pick up the broken pieces of you. I'll hold you together and I'll fix you. I'll love you to health and I'll kiss the pain away.-------------BLAIR I gazed in awe at the beauty of Mikael's painting of me. He placed an arm around my waist, a satisfied smile tugging at his lips. "What do you think?" He asked and I grinned. "It's beautiful" I breathed. "It doesn't completely describe how beautiful you are, Blair" he said and my heart fluttered in my chest, butterflies erupting in my stomach. Decade after decade, only Altan has the ability to make me feel like a love struck teenager and that superpower of his, has not changed at all. I gazed into his indigo eyes with passion for him blooming within me, like the cherry blossoms. He gazed at me too, a tender look in his eyes."I don't regret any of it, Mikael. I don't regret meeting you. My soul chose you. You are my soulmate and although Hera tears us apart, we will always come back to each other, loving each other twice as
