"Lilith why did you do that?" Andreas asked with wide eyes immediately the kiss was over. "That was wrong, you should not have done that" he said with his face filled with guilt. "No Andreas" Lilith held his hand affectionately. "I was the one who kissed you, you don't have to feel guilty about that. I wanted this and it is because l know l am old enough for that now. l am no longer a child Andreas l am a teenager now and very well matured" she said confidently. "I know you feel like its abuse or whatever you may call it, but l know what l want and you certainly did not abuse me" Without words, Andreas pulled her face closer to his with his both hands and gave her a sweet kiss. Lilith felt numb at the moment, like the whole world froze beneath their feet and the only thing moving was their heads and his hands as he slid it slowly round her waist and pulled her closer. Before the kiss could graduate to other things that were rated 18, he broke it for them to catch their breath
"I think Florate feels the same way you feel about him" Lilith said to Rain immediately they were dismissed from class for lunch. "And why would you think that?" Rain asked as she gulped the water in her water bottle. "I don't know" Lilith shrugged. "You saw what he did today, didn't you? I am sure he made the last message up just so he could save you from sensei's punishment" "Well... I can't say for sure that he made it up but it sure seemed like he did" Rain said as they both walked to the exit, towards the dining hall. "And what if he really did make it up? What if he really did want to save you?" Lilith asked with a sting of excitement in her voice. "Then l guess l owe him a thank you" "Seriously Rain? Do you not see where am heading at? It means that he has eyes for you too" Lilith squealed as they both entered the dining hall. "I won't be so sure about that Lilith till l see him and ask". "Well l guess that time is now" "Wait what?""Look it's Florate" Lilith pointed
"Are you sure of what you speak lord Varnaak?" King Radia asked with his hand creasing his chin. "Very absolute your grace" lord Varnaak bowed. "You are sure that she is a Trivenian?" "Of course my lord" "How were you able to prove so?" "She had ears instead of our symbol which certainly proves that she is not from Gorgor. Also your grace, she was one of their aspirants there at their institute, l mean the ones they train and gift powers to become the protectors of their world" "If you are certain of what you said, l shall believe that she is a Trivenian. But how was she able to see and feel you?" "I have no answers to that your grace. I too have those same questions still unanswered within me" "Do you think my son has anything to do with that?" "I can't say for sure your gracs but one thing is undisputable... " "Which is..." "The Trivenian has a relationship with the prince maybe not the one with romantic steams but l know surely that they share something. But not as t
"I was dead Andreas, how am l alive now". She looked confused and in desperate need of valid answers. Andreas didn't know how to explain things to her. He knew for sure that those memories were not gone, and she will one day recall all that happened but the only thing she got wrong was that she didn't die actually, she only lost to much blood and could have died if not tended to immediately. However it really didn't matter now because the Lilith before him now needed answers and hoped he could give them to her but he was only going to disappoint her because he was definitely not ready to let her know how powerful he was, for her own safety. "Lilith are sure that really happened? I mean that might just be a bad dream you had, it's not real" he said convincingly. "No Andreas" she shook her head sturbbonly. "I am sure it was not a dream. It was real Andreas and it really happened. I can't help but to wonder how come l am alive and well now. What really happened? I need to know. Ca
"This is so cool!" Rain exclaimed with her mouth wide open. They had just entered the simulation room and everything in there felt and looked so real. "If you weren't holding my hand right now Lilith l would say that this is damn real. It is a whole new world! How is this even possible?" She asked not expecting that anyone would give her a good answer as they all looked surprised, except Florate. "I know right!" Lilith added. "Seconds ago, we were just in this big room, and boom! We are in this jungle if l must say""This is totally amazing!" Rain complimented again. "It's not that good Rain" Florate commented with a serious face. “What do you mean it's not that good?" Rain didn't want to sound upset, actually she wasn't but did a bad job in keeping her cool. "I mean it’s just the work of a model that mimics the operation of an existing or proposed system, providing evidence for decision-making by being able to test different scenarios or process changes and this can be coupled w
The team stayed closed, together. They all kept their senses sharp as they watched out for any attacks from Nex and his team. No one had their minds focused on the mission or the test anymore, but they all looked out for anyone who was going to try to maim them or try to injure them as no one of them wished to loose."Sshh stop. I hear something" Edith, the girl from before announced, getting everyone on high alert. "Hahaha" she laughed loudly, with her hand on her stomach. "You all should have seen your faces, you all looked hilarious. Hahaha" she kept laughing at her own joke. It took the rest of the team a while to realize that it was a trick and nothing more. She only pulled a trick on them all to laugh herself out."That was not funny Edith" Linthorn frowned at her. "Do not do that again, else l will be the one to harm you myself " Lyra threatened."No need to be rude Lyra" Edith frowned at her, "lt was just a joke, you don't have to threaten me because of it"."You think so E
Florate ran fast with Rain in his arms. He seemed to have lost the other half of the team who left in search of the bridge and must now begin his search himself. "Now where to begin?" he looked around him, the tall trees, dead leaves on the ground and the small shrubs they all looked peaceful like this was a natural forest. 'His parents have really out done themselves this time' he thought with a snort.He decided to put Rain down for a moment and look into the environment more, for the bridge. He couldn't help but feel it's serenity within him even though it was not real. He placed her at the foot of a tree and gave her one last look before turning back. He took a deep breathe before finally leaving her there.He walked for some minutes, listening to the whole place very carefully till he was able to spot the bridge. He had followed the sound of the peaceful flowing water beneath it and it led him directly to the bridge. With a bright smile on his face, he ran back to where he had
Rain was reganing consciousness bit by bit. She was not fully aware of what was going on around her at the moment but she could tell she was in someone's arms. Florate? No his scent was different and so were his clothes. Florate's gi was green but the one who was carrying her now was in a black gi. She tried to look up to his face but the sun blinded her eyes however, she managed to catch a glimpse of his hair. White! This was definitely not Florate, where was he?' Did he leave her? she asked herself with worry. She was still down with the thoughts before what should have been her priority at the moment clicked in her head.' Who was carrying her? She asked herself. White hair? Black gi? Now who wears a black gi and has a white hair?' she thought quickly within her before finding her answer :Nex! What on Omania would he want from her? Or was he planning on killing her instead of maiming her? Whichever it was, she has to find out first before acting because jumping out of his hand
"I am very sure I was clear with my words when I ordered that you never come back here except you are here with the light illuminator". King Radia's voice thundered within his throne room at the sight of his son, prince Andreas. "Where is he? Have you brought him with you? If your answer is no, then leave this place at once before I force you to". He looked at him with irritation written all over his face. He hated him so much now especially after he threatened to kill him if he did not spare a common Trivenian. He meant nothing to him now if he wasn't with the light illuminator. Bringing him to him would make him consider accepting him back as his son. "Forgive me father, for I have failed you in so many ways than I can not count" he fell on his knees before him immediately. "I have come to plead for your forgiveness father. I have really been a disappointment to you, your grace". Andreas knew there was no reason to remain far from home since he has decided to let Lilith go, notw
"Rain?!" Florate looked very shocked. He had a lot of questions in his head right but all that didn't matter now, he only rushed to lift her from the floor."Don't you dare touch me you scoundrel!" she yelled at him with so much pain in her voice."Oh my, Rain!" Lilith came out of the room with a sad look on her face as she too went close to help her up."You too backstabber!" Rain cursed Lilith too. "Don't you dare lay your filthy hands on me!" she kept yelling and crying and it drew the attention of people around but there were no near nurses to come to her aid."What is going on Rain?" Florate looked really confused. "Why are you acting this way? Let me help you baby" he came to help her again but she rolled away from his reach, crying in agony of the pain that came with each turn she made on the floor. "You are hurting yourself the more Rain" Lilith drew closer to her but she flinched back. "What exactly is the problem? Why are you flinching from us. It is us Rain your boyfriend
Florate was honestly out of words. He did not know what else to say to Lilith right now, he did not know the right words to use or the correct things to say to her to make her feel better so he just chose to leave her to her self for now. He just thought it would be best if she called herself down on her own for start, then later he will come around to be with her and probably, Rain would come with him as well. So, he needed an excuse to leave her right now and he could not think of any other reasonable excuse than Rain. “Thank you so much Florate" she pecked his cheeks "I am really happy to have someone like you". She tried so had to smile but her heart was too heavy and her face had soaked so much tears that her cheeks found it difficult to curve into a smile. Florate however noticed this and felt really pained. He really wished he could do more to help but unfortunately, he could not. “It is fine Lilith” he started calmly. “It is okay. We love each other and look out for each o
"He has been my imaginary friend since I was five, prince Andreas". "Prince Andreas?" he furrowed. "Who is that? And why do have an imaginary friend? Are you not too old for that?” He seemed amused. “I am serious Florate” Lilith frowned. “Ok ok” he held back his laughter and comported himself, not wanting to get her annoyed as he decided to keep paying attention to her. “Andreas has been with me since I was five and I have grown to love him. I have grown to not know how to leave without him but now he has left me Florate he said we can’t be together” she broke into tears. “Calm down Lilith” Florate rubbed her arm gently, trying to calm her down. “I understand how you feel” “No you do not” she cried more. “I do, honestly I do but why did you not inform Rain and I about this friend, this Andreas how did you even meet him?" "I am sorry I kept him from you both” she sniffed, “I just could not let you guys know because he could only be seen by me, with the help of my
Back in her room, Rain had flashes of what happened between she and Florate and it made her blush hard. She buried her face into her pillow and let out a loud squeak, looking obviously happy and flustered at the same time. However, her expression changed when she remembered that Lilith had not come to visit her. Although she had earlier asked Florate to tell her that she was becoming worried over her nonchalance about her state of health but she really hoped she had a very good reason and was not ignoring her intentionally due to lack of concern or anything of that sort at all.‘Or was she mad at her for not quitting the match on time like Florate was?’ She thought of possible reasons why Lilith would neglect her at this very sensitive point in time but she did not seem to come up with any.“Humph” she breathed. She finally decided to let the thought go, settling on getting the answer from Lilith herself and she hoped within her that it would be a very valid reason. She just had to
Florate just had to let the tears fall. She was right. Her quiting the match even though it was worth it would make her to repeat a the previous level. Her stats would be brought down and she would join the current level seven aspirants and train better to get to her original level although that would be when her mates must have graduated. That was the main reason why he had Lilith get him disqualified instead of just quitting. Also, she was also right with the point that none of them would want that. In as much as they wanted her to leave the match, having her become reduced by a level won't be nice at all. So she did well by bearing the pain and he was so proud of her right now. "But I did it right?" she continued. "I got a point at least, didn't I?" "Although the sensei saved the results for later. As you both were injured but left for me, I can proudly say that my girlfriend was incredible. I am so proud of you Rain" he kissed her hair again. “I am so proud that you are mine
"Nanny Adelaide!" Florate screamed, obviously perplexed about Lilith's condition. "Nanny Adelaide!" He kept calling his nanny immediately he enter the main doors of the clinic and couldn't stop yelling till he found her. She was not attending to anyone, so she was free and walked around to check how the others were doing. She was startled clearly with the way he was screaming her name but before she could ask why, she noticed he was carrying a lifeless girl in his arms. "Oh my goodness!" she gasped before running towards him immediately while he too ran to meet her. “Thelma?" she called a nurse she had been walking around with. "Yes nurse Adelaide" "Get a stretcher immediately!" At her order, the young nurse left to do as she was told. "Nanny..." Florate found it hard to explain when he got close to his nanny he was already out of breath to. "What is it Florate? Tell me! What happened to her?" "Nanny this is my friend Lilith. I don't know, I just found her like
"Hey Nex!"Nex had beaten Dodge in their match against each other. He beat him both judging from the match and judging from their stats. It was not a surprise to anyone, Nex was strong, muscled and agile. He could easily over power his opponent if the person was not very resourceful as Dodge was not. He was strong too but Nex was always a step ahead of him during the match and that granted him victory.He had just received his handshake from his most proud father, not like he (Nex) cared and was now heading back to his room before he heard some one yell his name. He turned back to see who it was and he was not surprised at all."What do you want Florate?" he asked with a relaxed and calm voice. He looked like he did not know why Florate had to stop him and also pretended they were just casual people who stopped each other on the way to say one or two things."And why would I ever want anything from you Nexine?" he retorted, returning an angry frown for the calm expression on his face
"What has every one on Omania got to do with bringing light back to Gorgor?" Lilith furrowed in confusion. "Everything Lilith. Everything. Once light is restored to Gorgor, We will be free from the abyss Triven put us in and we will finally spot our location in the galaxy and you know what that means?" She shook her head, still not comprehending what she was trying to say. "It means that the door has been made open for my father to take his revenge on all of Omania especially Triven. And trust me Lilith when I say that with the height of the rage burning within him, it would be a death sentence for you all and sweet revenge for him. So no. I won't tell you how to restore light to Gorgor, for the sake of greater good" he said sadly. "Is there no other way to relieve you of the darkness?" she asked again, not really hoping to hear something good but she had to ask. "There is no other way Lilith". "Then we shall go with the first" she blurted making him almost believe she w
