“So, what did you and Aurelia get up to yesterday?” Achilles asked her whilst chewing on some freshly picked grapes. “Oh you know, just some basic combat training,” Seraphina replied nonchalantly. Achilles gasped and started choking on a grape, after a fit of coughing and Seraphina smacking him on his back, he finally regained his composure. “She did what?” Achilles thundered and Seraphina burst into a fit of harmonic giggles.
Realisation dawned on Achilles and his face set into a smirk, “You know, you almost just signed my sisters death certificate,” he told her. Seraphina rolled her eyes dramatically, “Oh Achilles, you know as well as I that there isn’t a single soldier here who would be brave or idiotic enough to take on Aurelia,” she said with a chuckle.
Seraphina barely had a moment to herself before Aurelia strolled in followed by Rose and Melanie. “I thought we would come and join you for some lunch,” Aurelia announced with a smile as she placed the covered tray down next to Seraphina and jumped on the bed next to her.“What’s wrong Seraphina, you look a little…lost,” Rose smiled softly at her.Seraphina let out a sigh, “Lady Briseis surprised us with her presence earlier,” Seraphina rolled her eyes dramatically. Aurelia glared, “What did that whore want?” she spat.“Easy Aurelia, she’s still the mother of my step-son,” Seraphina weakly tried to defend Lady Briseis.
Seraphina rushed through the halls of their quarters checking every room as she passed them, her heart panged a little every time she was greeted with an empty room. Seraphina reached the room that was being built into a nursery for Achilles’s son, she entered and gasped in awe. It wasn’t yet finished but, beautiful cream silk drapes adorned the windows and in the middle of the room stood a hand carved, ornate, mahogany crib. Seraphina allowed her fingers to trail across the smooth wood, she looked down at the folded blue silk sheets and blankets that were placed inside. She picked them up and hugged them to her chest, her heart warmed as she thought of the child she and Achilles will hopefully one day share. She placed the sheets and blankets back into the crib and placed a gentle hand on her stomach, “One day, soon,” she said to herself with a smile.
As Seraphina approached the DeBeaux Angelo manor, she was greeted by a pair of large golden gates. There were golden angel statues adorning the tops of the surrounding walls. Seraphina stifled a gasped as they drove through the gates and saw the sprawling
Achilles’ eyes widened at the ball of fire that hurled towards him, he threw his self onto the ground just as the flames passed over his head, he could feel the heat radiating from it and a sweat broke out on the back of his neck. The flames died ou
After a few hours of sparring, both Seraphina and Aurelia were sporting multiple grazes and bruises. “Well Seraphina, I must say I am impressed, you put up a better fight than some of my warriors,” Aurelia panted. Seraphina grinned widely at her, “I had a lot of emotions to work through,” Seraphina was leaning against her knees trying to catch her breath. “That was more enjoyable than I expected it to be,” she chuckled.“How are you feeling Seraphina?” Aurelia asked cautiously. Seraphina bit back the tears that were already forming in her eyes, “I am truly hurting but, I won’t be disrespected in such a way... Worry not, I have plenty to keep me busy though. I intend to learn my parents’ business’ and take over managing them, I would also like to make some changes in the manor.&rdq
Achilles scrambled out of the bath, his wet clothes clinging to his skin, as he ran after Seraphina. “Seraphina, wait!” Seraphina sighed as she turned to face him, “Achilles, I’m not-“ she was abruptly cut off by Achilles lips crashing onto hers. He pried her lips open with his tongue and claimed her mouth with his own. Achilles grabbed onto her hips and dug his fingers in as he pressed her wet body against his. Seraphina moaned into his mouth as she wrapped her arms around him.The pair made their way to the bed, their lips never once breaking contact. Seraphina explored Achilles’ body with her hands, she found the buttons to his shirt and quickly unbuttoned him exposing his sculpture like muscles. She slid her hand down and dipped it into his trousers to firmly grasp his fully erect member, she gently squoze him e
As promised, Aurelia arrived the next morning to continue training with Seraphina.Aurelia preferred to train without the use of weapons as in battle, one could easily be disarmed. After demonstrating to Seraphina how to hold herself properly and how to block various attacks, they began to spar. Achilles sat to the side observing, all the while, his heart was racing out of fear of Seraphina getting injured.Neither Achilles nor Aurelia expected Seraphina to be such a natural warrior though. Achilles could tell that Aurelia wasn’t holding back and he was extremely surprised to see Seraphina holding her own against the infamous ‘Azrael’. At the beginning of the match, Seraphina received quite a few blows from Aurelia but, she was quick to observe and before long was avoiding her attack
Seraphina arrived at Ethena’s office and knocked gently before entering. Ethena sprung up from her chair and launched herself at Seraphina, wrapping her in a warm embrace.She quickly corrected herself, “Please accept my apologies Seraphina, it’s just that your absence was noticed.”Seraphina smiled at her in response, “Come, let us walk and talk,” Ethena hooked her arm through Seraphina’s as they exited the room.“I have to know exactly what she did to me, there must be some way of finding out!” Achilles pleaded with Helga. Helga smiled sadly at him, “I’m sorry your Highness but, Seraphina was right in what she said. A love spell cannot have an effect unless there are underlying feelings alr
