Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate 111 - The Heir Comes Home?
Aya's POV"I am!" I grunted but my mate just calmly replied, "Not like that."He pointed at Eros. "His body was connected to the forest for days. His life force is still trying to return to it." Then he added, "Don't think about controlling the forest, my love. Don't force it."I swallowed hard. Behind us, the battle erupted again. Mom's golden magic tore through the darkness, illuminating the entire clearing. Dad's pheromones crashed against the Ancient Hunter with enough force to make the earth tremble. Johanis should have been fighting beside them.Instead, he was kneeling beside me. All because Eros wasn't breathing.Because I couldn't make him breathe."I don't know what to do.""Yes, you do.""I don't!" My voice broke. "I don't know how to do this, Joha!”"Aya." His voice was so soft that it felt as if he was afraid to break a fragile thing.Then I understood. He wasn't asking me to heal Eros. He was asking me to call him back. So I did, or at least I tried to. "Eros.."I placed
Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate 110 - Final Root
Aya's POVFor a few seconds, nobody actually moved. Not Mom.Not Dad.Not Johanis.Not even the Ancient Fairy Hunter itself..The forest seemed to hold its breath with us. Then the Hunter's crimson eyes narrowed. "This is getting actually old."Mom's wings spread wider. Dad's claws flexed. And somehow, despite the fact that I was exhausted, injured, and currently standing beside an unconscious-looking cousin whose heartbeat was literally connected to the forest—I felt a tiny, stupid smile tug at my lips.Because Mom and Dad had arrived.And for the first time since entering Bloodbury, I didn't feel like we were fighting something impossible by ourselves.Mom's gaze never left the Hunter. "You've been chasing my bloodline for centuries. So yeah, as you say, this is honestly getting a bit too old, y'know?"Her voice was quiet. Way too quiet.. Like someone who is simply mad. Actually no, mad is too light of a word to describe my mother's aura. She is absolutely livid."And you still ha
Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate 109 - Bloodline of Light
Aya's POVSo this is why the forest was hesitant to show us the way a while ago. They were protecting him from the Ancient Fairy Hunter.It was probably Eros who convinced them to let us pass. He must have sensed us the moment we entered Bloodbury. The forest listened to him... just enough to open a path.But then why? Why were they draining his powers? Why were they replacing his heartbeat with theirs?Why were they making it impossible for him to survive outside the forest?My thoughts spiraled until the Ancient Fairy Hunter laughed. It was a sound so deep and creepily ancient that the air itself seemed to rot around it."You worms have helped me greatly." The crimson eyes burned brighter. "This cursed forest refused to reveal my vessel. Though I corrupted much of it... the remaining heart still clung to its loyalty."Its enormous hand gestured lazily toward Eros. "So they imprisoned him themselves."My breathing stopped. The forest… It hadn't been imprisoning him. It had been hidin
Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate 108 - The Forest Guardian
Aya's POV"Eros!"I didn't wait.The moment his voice reached me again, my legs moved before my brain could even catch up. Branches whipped across my face as Johanis and I sprinted through this damned Bloodbury Forest, the trees blurring together around us."...Aya..."The voice came again. Weak. So fuckin weak but at the very least, I know it was real."He’s this way!" I shouted. Johanis stayed close beside me, one hand never more than a few inches away as if prepared to catch me if I stumbled."I'm with you."Sora remained surfaced beneath our bond. 'Almost close..’His certainty steadied my pounding heart. So, we ran over twisted roots. Around enormous ancient trees that I swore weren't here when I was the one trapped. And go over across streams that glowed faintly.The deeper we traveled, the stranger the forest became. Nothing looked natural anymore.. Entire cliffs floated upside down. Roots grew into the sky. Rivers flowed sideways.It was as though reality itself had forgotten
Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate 107 - Through The Heart of Bloodbury
Aya's POVWe have traveled for only minutes when what should have been originally weeks. I was so delighted and beyond satisfied that we were able to quickly arrive without much problem. But I may have spoken too soon because we are about to face one right now..The moment our boots crossed the boundary of Bloodbury Forest, everything had changed. The air grew heavier, the sunlight vanished as though something enormous had swallowed the sky whole. I’m having a very weird sense of deja vu.Behind us, hundreds of fairy soldiers remained outside the barrier, maintaining the ancient gateway with every ounce of their magic. Silver circles burned beneath their feet as streams of light connected together like chains, holding the entrance open. The expedition commander shouted orders. "Hold the portal!""Do not let the path collapse!""Keep feeding mana into the barrier!"Dozens of fairies answered at once. "Yes, Commander!"I looked back only once. Hundreds of them...Working together just s
Saved, Then Rejected by my Ice Hockey Mate 106 - Start of the Promise
Aya's POV"He is alive," I repeated firmly. Dad exchanged a look with Mom. Something passed silently between them. Then Mom sighed. "We still cannot move immediately."I opened my mouth and that's when she pointed at me so I immediately closed it. Well, partly."The forest remains unstable." She walked toward the window. "The search teams disappeared within minutes."My anger deflated slightly, because that was the problem. Not unwillingness. Fear. And it was legitimate fear. The forest was unpredictable now more than it ever was. Sending more people blindly inside might simply create more victims. I hated that she was right. Absolutely despised it, actually. And this could've been prevented if mom didn't send some troops there but she might've known I would insist to go check so she tried to put matters in her hand instead.Mom turned back toward us. "The faery council has spent the last two days trying to stabilize entrance routes."Hope flared again deep within me. "Have they succe
