"Come on you two suck it up... we have important things to worry about, like getting our Guardian’s memories back!" Ava yelled, breaking the two apart.
I was beginning to see Ava here as the fierce creature in the gang, even though she was a cute fluffy rabbit.
Gideon and Puma just murmured something under their breath but at least their little fit stopped.
"Follow us lady Yelena... we will lead you to the waterfall," Ava said hopping ahead.
"Time is of the essence," Gideon said, pointing his paws to the skies and walking on two paws, making the little fox seem human.
"Ugh!" Puma said, rolling his eyes, the poor lion was merely aggravated by everything Gideon does.
Gideon shot him a fierce look and then I sighed heavily. This was gonna be a long walk, especially with these two but then I smiled remembering how Celeste and Layla threw a fit whenever we had a council meeting, those two couldn’t stand each other.
I giggled at the sudden images that played in my head, these two were just like Celeste and Layla but in a different version and it was so nostalgic. My eyes felt sad as other images of the Vampire Realm plagued my head and I lost sight of anything around me as a deep feeling of longing overwhelmed me, although I was cursed to no longer have feelings for him, I couldn’t fight the pain in my chest as I thought of him.
I came to a halt looking at the bright skies graced with faint rainbows, the wind gusting around me carrying my long wavy hair weightlessly. I closed my eyes, How DID it feel to be within his arms, his cold yet warm embrace, what did his kisses feel like, his touch, all the feelings I felt whenever I was within his presence, what did it feel like? For I could no longer tell, I rubbed my arms as tears slipped through my silver eyelashes and dripped down my cheeks.
Before I knew it I was crying, I have no recollection at all of any kind, I didn’t know what it felt like to love him, I didn’t know what his touch was like or the feelings I felt whenever he kissed me, they were all lost and fading, and then I knew because of this eternal curse I no longer love Nicklaus.
¤●¤
Nicklaus was seated on the bed, dressed in red sheets, after a prolonged pause from him, he felt the bed with his hand, and then he clenched the sheet hard, his green eyes holding unquenchable sadness as he recalled a certain beauty staring back at him with a shimmering smile on her lips, and saying his name, the sound of her melodious voice, the feel of her soft smooth touch against his skin and how much she made his heart flutter whenever she laughed and her stubborn nature that excited him.
’Have you forgotten My love?’ he thought with trembling eyes, for he knew the conditions of the curse, she would gradually and swiftly forget the feelings she had for him until they were nothing but hollow empty feelings towards him.
’Will you forget my kiss?’ he brought the sheets right beneath his nose, gods it still smelt like her and the harsh feeling overwhelmed him, consuming him, killing him from the inside out, and made his bleeding heart ache to a point he just couldn’t breathe, to the point his source of air was nothing.
’Will you forget my touch?’ of each painful thought that consumes him, he could feel the darkness covering his beast and his body becoming soulless.
’Will you forget how much I love you?’ his teeth clenched hard and then he felt something cold as ice streamed down his cheeks and then he flashed his orbs open, the wet contents dripping onto his bed.
Was the great Magnus crying? He felt the cold substance, this was tears, this was pain, he was flipping away to the darkness as a feeling of loss consume him, without her he was but a mindless darkness walking freely because he with her had a purpose, he had light, he had soul and he had happiness, but now he had nothing, absolutely nothing and it was only a matter of time.
Was this it? ’Will I forever lose you? Is this how our story ends?’ The mere thought of it shattered him.
’Yelena, come back to me... please’

Alaric poured some wine contents into the small glass.
"We have no clue where she is... I’m afraid all hope is lost" Celeste said her sad gaze to the floor, she couldn’t begin to imagine the state Nicklaus was in right now, how lost and confused he must be, they have tried everything, searching every possible Realm, searched for clues but they came with nothing, Yelena was gone like she was no longer of this world.
"Where is your faith sister?"
Her gaze leisurely raised, Alaric stood before her with unreadable eyes, holding out a glass of wine for her.
"This is no time to be drinking brother... Our Nicklaus will be consumed by darkness without her, his beast will become more unstable than ever, he will seal his heart, nothing can ever break it if we do not find her, we will lose him forever Alaric!" She basically yelled.
But Alaric still held out the glass for her. "Alaric!"
"What then if we find her?!" he snapped. "Even if we do there is nothing we CAN do"
Her eyes trembled at his words. "There’s a reason Lena left, it might be hard to come to, but her curse is eternal... she will cease to love Nicklaus, and even if she comes back" his jaw tightened. "The moment she sees me... she will see me as her mate even if she does not want to, she will crave me even if she does not want to, she will love me even if she does not want to"
"Ala-"
"Tell me then how would Nicklaus take it? When he sees his soulmate loving a good for nothing brother like me?"
