Love Beyond Realms 42: Fate's Agenda
BLAIR My gaze rested on Mikael who was lying right beside me, my head on his bare chest. I blinked and raised my head to look around the room. I'd been asleep few seconds ago. I could've sworn someone had called my name. Mikael was still asleep and there was clearly no one in the room. But, I wasn't convinced that what I'd heard was a mere fragment of my imagination.I placed my hand on Mikael's forehead and heaved a sigh of relief at the absence of a fever. I sat up slowly, gently tucking the blankets around Kael. I got out of bed with no clothes on. Letting out a sharp exhale, I grabbed a night robe and slipped it on. 'Athena' I froze and turned to look at the double doors leading to the terrace. I moved towards them and opened the door. Cold breeze ruffled my hair, goose bumps appearing on my skin. Once I stepped out into the terrace, I was startled by the sight of the glowing figure standing at the far end of the terrace, her back to me.Her hair was a mixture of black and
Love Beyond Realms 43: Labyrinth
MIKAEL The air was freezing cold and I had no idea where I was. I was in a dark room with no window or door. I took a step forward. Then, I took another. A door suddenly appeared in front of me, bright light illuminating the room that was once so dark. I took a deep breath and made my way towards the exit of the room. Once I stepped out of the room, I was surprised to find myself in the middle of Hera's courtyard. Hera was speaking to two other women I could recognize. Cordelia, the goddess of water and Nyx, the goddess of the night. The three women were sitting under the tree of discord. "There's something I discovered today" Hera began and the other two women raised their brows."What is it? Did you perhaps find out who the new guard really is?" Nyx asked. "Of course, I did. I discovered that his mother had given him a different name apart from the one given to him by the Fates" Hera said and my frown deepened. I had no clue about what she was talking about. "Why wou
Love Beyond Realms 44: Cruel Reality
BLAIR My eyelids were heavy with exhaustion but I couldn't sleep. I was also painfully well aware of the digits displayed on the digital clock on the nightstand. I had a pounding headache and I was feeling a little nauseous.Mikael was lying on the bed, asleep and his breathing was strained. I couldn't do anything but watch over him, afraid that if I closed my eyes for a second, I would lose him to the cold hands of death. "All you have to do is accept your cruel reality before Hera takes advantage of your hesitation" a small voice at the back of my mind said. My gaze rested on Mikael's pale face and I stroked the side of his face with shaky fingers. He looked so tired and drained.He used to be so full of life. I recalled how we'd met in this lifetime, the way he'd acted so coldly, the way he called me a different name, the times he called me Scaredy-cat. I thought about everything Moira had said to me and I wondered if I could really do it. I wondered if I could ever gain th
Love Beyond Realms 45: Fight Or Flight
BLAIR Two days after Enzo's visit, I was feeling worse. My headaches had worsened and my nausea became really frustrating. It was at that point that I knew that something was up. Mikael had fallen asleep in the bedroom, not too long ago.He was doing a lot of sleeping as of recent. I went into the bathroom. Then, I took off my shirt and stood in front of the mirror. I seemed to have put on a little weight. I knew what this could mean, but I needed to know for sure if it was what I was thinking. My hands were glowing a bright purple as I channeled my magic into the palm of my hands. Taking a deep breath, I placed my hand on my stomach and closed my eyes. I could feel a different energy within me. Tears filled my eyes and when I opened them, my gaze fell on the mirror. The mirror was reflecting the yellowish waves of energy radiating from my stomach. I slowly sank to my knees, tears rolling down my cheeks in floods. I had mixed feelings about my condition. I was carrying Mikael'
Love Beyond Realms 46: Final Days
LORENZO Watching Aria sleep had become more of a hobby, knowing that soon I would no longer be by her side in a matter of time. It's been two days since I visited Mikael's home. Two days since Blair told me about Moira's appearance to her. Two days since I accepted my fate. Aria was yet to know about the fact that I was going to die pretty soon. She'd probably noticed that something was bothering me, but she hadn't talked about it, yet. I exhaled slowly, running my fingers through my hair. I was certainly not afraid of dying. But, I was worried about Aria. I knew she didn't want to loose me. If she knew that I was going to die, it would tear her apart. I didn't want to make her cry, but I had to let her know the truth. I needed to prepare her for her future without me. I brushed her hair away from her face, my gaze resting on her serene features. She was beautiful. There was no doubt about that. She was also my first and last love. She made me have a purpose and I was really g
Love Beyond Realms 47: Black Rose
BLAIR I remained awake until it clocked 12:00am. It was officially Mikael's twenty fourth birthday. Aria and I had prepared a cake and decorated Mikael's room a little bit. While we did so, Enzo remained by Mikael's bedside, watching over him.I switched off the lights and went to lie down beside Mikael. He wasn't wearing a shirt and his skin was warmer than usual. I pressed butterfly kisses down his spine until he stirred. I buried my face in the crook of his neck and pressed another kiss to his skin."Happy birthday, love" I whispered and he chuckled weakly. Aria switched on the lights and Mikael took in the sight of the 'Happy Twenty Fourth Birthday' banner, the smile on his face, growing."Happy birthday, Kael" Lorenzo and Aria stated with a smile on their faces. "Gosh, you're old. You know you're over five centuries old, right?" Enzo teased and Mikael snorted inamusement. "Here comes the cake," Aria said in a singsong voice. She was carrying the cake we'd both baked sev
Love Beyond Realms 48: Dust And Ashes
BLAIR Mikael was awake when I got to the car. He gazed at me with a look that said that he knew that the appointed time had finally arrived. I pressed a kiss to his forehead and lips. "See? I told you we would make it to midnight," I said and he embraced me. I held on to him, not wanting to let go just yet. "It's okay, Blair. My time has come, you know that," he whispered in my ear. I let out a shaky breath and slowly pulled away. Mikael cupped the side of my face and kissed me, a single tear rolling down his right cheek. "I love you," he said, his voice shaky. "I love you too," I rasped and he gave me a pained smile. I wiped his tears with my fingers. "Don't cry or I will have to start crying. It won't be nice," I told him. He placed a trembling hand on my stomach, his gaze locked with mine. "Take care of her, okay?" He croaked and I nodded."I will."He closed his eyes and let out a sharp exhale. He took out a butterfly charm bracelet and helped me slip it on. "It is a sy
Love Beyond Realms Epilogue
BLAIR I miss him. I really do. I think of him everyday. I see him everywhere. I hear his voice. I know it's all my imagination, but I don't want to let go of these fragments of my imaginations. They are probably the only thing keeping me sane. Our daughter, Althea has been growing up so fast. She's also really smart. She rarely asks about her father after the day she found me crying in the bedroom with Mikael's photo in my hands. She has his grey eyes and my red hair. Infact, she looks a lot like her father. But, she's just as feisty as me. My little girl doesn't say it, but I know she wants to have a dad, just like the rest of her classmates. Tomorrow is her birthday. Her eight birthday. Yes, it has been eight years since her father died and every time I think of Althea's birth, I'm reminded of the death of her father, the love of my life. I'm a working class woman as I've always wanted to be. Mikael had left his company under my name. I'd taken his position as CEO of Kane's
