051: Holding Onto Her
Ophelia flickered her eyes open to Finlay's. And she had never felt so elated before because she was beginning to think that she died or something, after getting stabbed by the were-cannibals' princess. Apparently had watched her whilst she was asleep the entire time. But something didn't seem right. His cheek was swollen as if he stuffed something in there."Finlay.." she called out his name quietly, stretching her hand to place it on his swollen cheek.Finlay offered her a small smile, put his hand over hers that was on his cheek, before pressing a kiss to her palm."You're awake." He let go of her hand upon sensing she wanted to seat upright. It was dawn and they were in the ship, with the windows wide open so ventilation could flow freely into the small place of resting."Easy.." Finlay instructed her upon hearing her wince which indicated that she was still in pain. The dagger she was stabbed with was no ordinary dagger. He had sensed it would take longer for her to heal. Perhap

052: Ultimatum Of The Ice Dragon
"Oceanfait,"Finlay stood on the wooden ship railings and put his hand on the rope as they reached the second sea which had a different color from the first. Precisely indigo and was calm as if it was never graced with waves or tsunamis before. He remembered sailing through this sea with ease, however, he had a strange feeling in his gut that something wasn't right because some parts of the sea were frozen. Even most of his men were laughing as they jumped from the ships and walked on the ice. Waltzing and behaving like women at the ball dance. It was hilarious, but Finlay wasn't settled inside. He threw a look in his wife's direction, only to see her learning how to shoot an arrow with an apple. Her few companies of males and Lewis, teaching her. Who would have thought a homely Ophelia would behave in such manner? Finlay thought she was meant for dresses and ball gowns, with delicate little hands. But upon seeing her in his clothes which he had adjusted to her size with a piece of t

053: Kiss Of The Dragon
Alexander chuckled inauspiciously as Ophelia was ushered into the small place of rest, away from his eyes. She reluctantly allowed Lewis to drag her in, scared of what this Dragon might do to her husband and his people.And Finlay upon seeing this left his standing spot and stood a few feet away from the ice dragon. If he was scared of Alexander, he didn't show it."I'll give you anything else, but not my wife. Please." Finlay implored, avoiding the eyes of his men resting on him."You're a brave man, Finlay, and stupid too. Risking your life and that of two thousand men because of a woman. Many men would've handed her over without thinking twice. There are lots of women everywhere. But you see that one? I want to." Alexander was persistent and seemingly dangerous to Finlay. In fact, he was growing larger, cracking the ice where he stood.Finlay was in a tight position. He knew he couldn't give his wife to the were-dragon, nor could he let two thousand people die. There had to be a way

054: When A Luna Loses Her Memory
The kiss from the ice god had knocked Ophelia out cold and for the umpteenth time, Finlay couldn't help but hate himself for not sending her back when he had the chance to. Now, it was complicated to wake her up. She was laid on the small place of rest like a sleeping beauty.Had he known, he would have listened to Delta Lockwood. They would probably see him as a fool or something, but that didn't matter. Ophelia was unconscious like a sleeping beauty. It was exasperating.He didn't know what else the ice god had done to his wife, she was still breathing and he had tried several means to have her awoken, but it was all effortless.Finlay closed all the doors and windows, heated the entire place, and pulled her hand in his as he waited for her with his heart doing a turmoil inside of him.Several hours passed by until it was nightfall, and nothing had happened. He was perspiring, drenched in his own sweat while Ophelia's hands still felt so cold like she had spent a look time on ice. I

055: When Confusion Becomes The Order Of The Night
Finlay chuckled after a short pause, assuming she was trying to be hilarious. He withdrew his hands from her shoulder and then grabbed one wooden stick of fire before holding it close to her face."I missed you,"Ophelia wondered if this person had lost all sanity because she didn't know him. Wait a minute, could he be her captor or something? He was too good-looking for his own good with the longest sand-blonde hair she had ever seen for a man. Nevertheless, she couldn't trust him. It felt like he had so many skeletons buried in his closets and was trying to pretend."Missed me? I find this very confusing, sir." She said after looking away from his gaze and rubbing the side of her arm."You're my wife, am I supposed to not miss you?" Finlay used his free hand to pull her face back to his, wondering why she was being so strange."Come again, perhaps I might have misheard you," this time, Ophelia didn't look away. She held his gaze.Amusement disappeared from Finlay's eyes as he wrapped

056: The Test
Finlay was beyond upset, with the way his wife was ignoring him. He couldn't tell if it was a deliberate act as a serve of punishment, or if she truly had lost her memory.But how was it even possible? She got kissed by the dragon, fell into a deep sleep for three days, and woke up and couldn't recall anything. Refused to sleep on the bed with him and even ran out when he was undressing in front of her. Like he was a stranger who wanted to rape her or something.He had woken up the next morning and couldn't find Ophelia in the room. She had left, wearing the same dress she wore last night. Without even undergarments on. Christ!Finlay left the bed and made his way out immediately, in search of his wife. It felt like he was getting smacked in the face for ignoring Delta Lockwood's advice. Now, Ophelia was out of control.He walked through the ship, asking everyone he saw if they had seen his wife, but they kept replying that they hadn't.Finlay sighed heavily and ran his fingers through

057: Too Much
It was the other way round.Finlay was ignoring Ophelia over what she did. He left her standing outside and went on with his business. When he returned, he barely even acknowledged her presence. Spoke to everyone else and deliberately ignored her, so she would know he was upset with her. This was rather unsettling for Ophelia, as he had been nice to her since the previous day's evening. Of course, she couldn't recall anything, but she had sensed some truths in his words from their earlier conversation, it turned out she had falsely thrown accusations and wanted his attention on her. She watched as men trained with swords and clenched her jaw when she saw Finlay come to take a look with his beta right behind him. She could admit she was a little jealous.The whole time Finlay ignored her, he could see her watching his every move through his side glance. It was amusing but he wanted to torture her by putting some necessary distance between them so she would learn. Testing him was the l

058: Down That Lane
"You ruined everything.""I was pained, couldn't let the man have you to himself.""But he's my husband. You erased my memory of everything just so I wouldn't recognize and love him as I used to.""It was only for a couple of days, I wanted to torture him.""Where in history was it stated that werewolves and dragons mix? I've never even seen a real dragon before, except you.Ophelia ground her teeth until her jaw began to hurt as she looked away from this man whose skin was as white as snow. It was Alexander and they were in Oceanfait, standing right on the frozen sea except ships and men were out of sight."You know, I thought this would be just a love story between me and Finlay, but it's more of an adventure with gods and were-cannibals trying to separate us from each other," Ophelia folded her arms across her chest."There's nothing in my heart except pity for you, Ophelia. You didn't know what you stepped into when you accepted this man into your life," Alexander shook his head at

059: Day One In Holkar
They reached the Holkar sea which was known to be the largest to sail through. Sometimes men go missing because of the treacherous sea beasts and blowing-amulet sirens. They were all prepared for this sea which would take a week to cross. Holkar was the fifth and most dangerous sea among the seven seas before South. Finlay ensured Ophelia didn't leave the room. Thankfully she had regained her memory, but he couldn't risk having her out there anymore. After what Alexander made her suffer. He was outside with his men, his sword right in its belt. Ready to slay any beast that would threaten to attack. Holkar as a whole was bad luck. Cursed. Finlay had put a strict law where his men wouldn't fish or even take the seawater to filter for drinking. He had sailed through this on three occasions and could recall how men had died from just drinking from it. Sometimes they go blind if they stare at it too much.Finlay could still recall how they had been attacked by sirens who blew their amul

060: Sea Gods And Flashbacks
Sailing through Holkar was more complicated than they had predicted. Men were missing one by one that Finlay had to impose the law of counting themselves to ensure they were complete in number. Bloated dead bodies would float atop The water as the ships sailed by and it was rather saddening. Eleven men had died within two days. Finlay even gave strict orders to them to stay inside and not come out, but it was difficult because each man who took the job as a sailor died along the way.It was exasperating for Finlay. He had discussed with his meeting men about this so they could put heads together in finding a solution, but it was to no avail. Men kept dying every day when they hadn't even reached the fifth sea. Every day, they threw dead bodies into the sea. It was certainly the sea gods who were killing them.As usual, Ophelia had stayed inside without being let out. Even the windows and door were shut so she wouldn't see outside. Finlay couldn't risk her life. But the person who had
