Something is wrong

ELARA'S POVI heard the word leave her mouth as she stared straight through me, to something behind me. I slowly followed her line of sight and there he was. Beros. Why? How?"Beros" I breathed out, leaving my chair to topple over as I ran into his arms."Beros" I said again as I jumped into the warm...no...cold embrace of him. "My love" he said, as he wrapped his arms tighter around me."Are you truly back? What happened?" I asked. "Where were you?""I missed you my love, I thought, I thought I would never see you" I heard him say."What...what happened?" I pulled back from the hug to peer at his face, he appeared unscathed, refreshed even."I was trapped"."How?" It was Lioren."She searched everywhere for you, what happened?" It was Alicent this time. I felt him release from the hug as he grabbed his head in his arms."I can't remember everything" his eyes closed, and when he opened them, the silver was there, but it was not as vibrant as before."Your eyes" I whispered as I reach

Recovery

ELARA'S POVA few days later.Beros had been asleep since he came back, only waking up at intervals. I wondered what could be running through his mind, I wanted to see what he had been through, see what he had survived, but anytime I came close to him, he would wake up.His aura didn't feel the same and when I searched inside my core, the longing was still there, why did I still feel a longing for him when he was right here with me? Or was I finding it hard to believe that he was here and safe with me."Is everything alright?" his voice jolted me out of my thoughts.He sat up in bed slowly "you had that look in your eye, what were you thinking about?" he asked.I surveyed him carefully as he looked into my eyes "what's wrong?" his brow furrowed."What happened to you?" I asked "you have refused to tell me anything for days now, you keep on avoiding the question".He took in a deep breath, the same one he took whenever I brought up the issue."It hurts me to try to remember" he said, t

A servant clone

THIRD PERSON POVAs they all stood in the meeting hall planning the next course of action, a maid came up to Lioren and whispered in her ears. Lioren turned to face the maid slowly."What did you say?" she asked again as she looked at the maid who had just spoken.The maid hesitated for a bit before she replied "The moon deity says she won't be able to attend today's meeting"."And why is that?" Lioren asked, confused at the message."She didn't say why your highness" the maid said as she bowed her head towards Lioren who in turn waved at her to go away.Immediately the maid walked out, Alicent spoke up "Elara won't be joining us?" she asked as she looked at Lioren."It seems so" Lioren replied "would you happen to know why?" she asked.Alicent thought for a minute as she placed her hand on her chin, "maybe she is still pissed about our conversation yesterday" she said."What conversation was that?" Lioren looked confused. Alicent didn't reply, instead she looked around at the meeting

The watch begins

THIRD PERSON POV.After Lioren and Alicent realized the gravity of the situation, they started plotting on how to turn the tides without sparking Elara's fury or risking Beros finding out more information from Elara.Over the next few days, they worked together secretly with the help of Solas. They placed spies around Elara's room to monitor how frequent her healing sessions were with Beros, Elara had refused seeing anyone and advancing the battle plans, it seemed as though she were under a trance, all her attention and essence was being used on Beros, and he was like an abyss, continually sucking it up.Alicent and Lioren had several meetings to plan the plan further, it was on one of such meetings that they discovered new things.They both sat at the table, looking over the recent events of the fae kingdom when Lioren spoke up."A letter came in for you" she said."For me?"

Blinded by love

THIRD PERSON POVThe day Solas confessed to Lioren about using his powers, he had been scared for his life, though he had been loyal to Lioren for many years, he knew how ruthless she could be when she wanted to.Deep down as he knelt down, face down, dreading what kind of punishment would be dealt out to him, he didn't have a single regret about what he did for Elara, in fact, he would do it all over again.And so, when he heard the words Lioren said after the excruciating pain he felt, he was no longer scared, infact he was elated, for Lioren had made him the strongest supernatural to exist after the gods, and this meant no one would be a match for him, not even the imposter Beros, he could easily protect Lioren now.As he went home that day, he fell into a deep slumber, and when he awoke, he completely forgot about everything that happened the day before, his body was still adjusting to the influx of power."Bro, you've been asleep for almost a whole day" his brother's voice had st

He had eventually waited to meet his brother after the argument and his brother forgave him, after all, they only had each other.Solas adjusted himself on the tree "when will he come out?" solas whispered "he's supposed to be out my now"."Oh, there he is" Solas said once more as the back doors to the palace opened and Beros stepped out. Solas watched him as he looked around warily before drawing up his hood to conceal his face and darting off into the dark."That's my cue" Solas grunted as he heaved himself off the tree and landed on the floor with a thud.He followed Beros into the night, occasionally hiding in between trees to go unnoticed. Beros walked a long time until he came to an old fountain at the edge of the castle, it was an abandoned place, faes rarely passed through there."What's he doing?" Solas whispered as he saw Beros make some invisible shapes with his hands, sha
