Serena

I found myself standing beside a boulder, silently staring at the golden lake inside the Baltic Forest. It looked the same as the last time I saw it, but the sky was dark. The lake and the surrounding diamond-looking flowers now seemed to glow even brighter. They seemed to call to me…seemed to draw out a feeling of nostalgia inside me.

I was at peace, completely relaxed until a movement opposite where I was disturbed my solace.

From across the lake, a young man emerged from the darkness. He was wearing a black royal suit. From the crest embroidered on his right upper chest, I realized he was someone of status in the Kingdom of Phanteon.

I was far away from him, but when I really scrutinized his features, I could see, as clear as day, exactly who he was.

King Aero…

Or in this case, a younger version of him.

And I could see just how melancholic his face looked. He was just standing, his blank eyes directed on the lake like he was trying to speak to it telepathically or looking for a miracle there.

Then, I noticed another movement not far away from him. A white figure of a woman hid behind a large tree. Her hands were dainty and her hair was up to her waist. She seemed to be spying on him…seemed to be very engrossed just looking at my husband.

There was no indication that Aero noticed her presence. There was no indication that she meant to approach him too. There was also no indication that they both noticed me and I was left watching them as half an hour ticked by.

At one point, this woman stepped forward a little, allowing me to get a good look at her features, and at that exact moment, I gasped.

“Oh, God.”

I placed a hand over my mouth when I realized, albeit too late, that the woman was me…

‘Oh, just a dream…’ I thought to myself the moment my eyes fluttered open.

The soft rays of the sun immediately greeted me as well as Aero’s gentle smile. He was sitting on the bed, facing me, half covered by the bedsheet we shared with one knee bent up and one arm resting on it. It was a cool posture, pretty much fitting for a suave man like him.

I figured he had been awake for quite some time now and had been unashamedly staring at my sleeping form. ‘Very sly of him’, I thought.

‘Yes, I am sly. I just love watching you sleep. Good morning, love,’ he stated or what the…

“Was that you?” I asked, giving him a surprised, questioning look. Using my elbow, I slightly raised myself up, all memory of my recent dream gone that instant.

‘Yes,’ he answered, giving me a smirk.

I could loudly hear him inside my head and that both frightened and amazed me.

“Ho—how is this possible?” Audibly, I asked.

‘Because we are already mated, Serena,’ he explained, again using telepathy. ‘You can do it too. Try it.’

My eyes bulged. ‘Really?!’ I answered him through my mind.

His smile widened. ‘Yes. We are one in every way possible, Serena. You could feel my emotions, hear what I think unless I intentionally block you. You could also sense me, locate me anywhere in both Phanteon and Earth, and in other realms. You’d know if I have mood changes. You could feel my heartbeat and breathing. That’s how powerful a mate bond is. There’s no backing out now. Are you afraid?’

I didn’t need to think about an answer.

‘No, not if it’s with you, Aero,’ I told him whilst straightening myself up and cupping his face. ‘This is just unnatural for me, totally a quick change, but I’ll get the hang of it.’ I awarded him a coy smile and bit my lower lip seductively.‘Good morning too, my mate,’ I said, leaning over towards him.

His eyes turned hooded then.

With that, we shared a morning kiss. It was sweet and soft at first, but it soon turned heady and rough.

I returned to lying in bed. He followed me without breaking our kiss. With our new position, I consequently felt his erection poke my belly.
