Chapter 95: Longing For You

Was someone standing before me? Could this fresh warmth I was feeling not be by the clustering petals and butterflies around me? I opened my eyes to the question but I found nothing... not even the petals or butterflies could be seen anymore as if I hallucinated it all, but there was that lingering feeling that it actually happened, a mix of feelings I could not explain, it impaled me in such a way and left me questioning, have I lost it perhaps?

In uncertainty I looked around, but it remained the same quiet garden, nothing at all, maybe I really was seeing things. I looked around skeptically as if I was keeping watch for an intruder, I must be paranoid, I began retreating back inside. But came to a sudden halt, whirling, I looked once again, this feeling... Why was it there? Ugh snap out of it Sylvia, just go back in, I told myself before sauntering away.

It took every bit of his brawn to leave her be, when he found her in the garden staring at the skies with downcast eyes he knew he couldn't grasp them, although it was just a faint gesture and he didn't see much effort of it, he thought about surrounding her with her favorites, with just a thought they came swirling around her, he couldn't help the smile that crossed his lips as she spins around them, She had yet another trait that showed just how much of a goddess she was, she was happy and that alone gave me a deep feeling of warmth, just watching her smile was enough to calm the beast within him, the beast that craved her like she was the last flavor on earth was actually at peace watching his beloved.

He could not help the enchantment as before a blink of an eye he was right before her, taking in all her looks closely, her eyes closed, her breath on his face was like a calm storm, her intoxicating scent filled his nose to the brim and his once calm beast desperately tried to claw out right at that moment, like she felt a presence before her as she opened her eyes he was already gone, he was back to the hallway where he was as he watched her glance around in a daze, a few moments it took before she sauntered back in.

'Ha, my love... if only I could hold you right now...' he thought eagerly as his green eyes lightened just by the thought of it. The accumulating desire within was becoming like a flame spreading more dangerously, how long will he be able to stay back? Well he has to, he HAD to or the worse will come, now he has had a glimpse of her before he makes his journey, even as a god he still has to follow the laws that came with the mortal world for he was still on trial, he hated the idea of leaving her be, he would make sure he wraps things up quickly and come back, he disappeared into the darkness.

I awoke feeling light as a feather, yet another night without any bad dreams, I was beginning to think my days of bad dreams were over, some god must have blessed me with such grace.

The sun was already shimmering inside my room, with my robe around me I walked to my window gazing upon the bright blue skies with a faint smile on my lips, my mind lingered on what happened last night, when I hallucinated those things, I still pondered what it was but I didn't wanna think about it too much, I have been thinking a lot these days and it wasn't good for me nor helping me.

I turned to the white bow gracing my wall with its presence. It was a fine piece of art, Princess Alice must have really gone out of her way to give me this, that was unexpected of her but nice, never thought I would receive anything from her.

Tilting my head to the side, my brown orbs remained on it, it truly was beautiful.... and very, I shivered, from a cold? No? But from what? I shrugged the feeling off, as my gaze found the grandfather clock, already this late and Olivia was yet to come, that was odd because Olivia had never been late before, did she oversleep? No... she doesn't, she was the type that always keeps to time. Maybe she was running a few errands then.

I was already at my door as the thoughts wist in my head, I was out of my chambers into the wide lobby, some servants walked back and forth engaging in some sort of routine, I walked to a servant dusting some antiques.

"Excuse me"

She turned to me, bowing immediately. "Good morning my lady" she greeted.

"Morning... have you seen Olivia?"

"No my lady I haven't", she curtsied with her words.

"Odd," I said with puzzled looks. I knew she was out to the lake yesterday but she promised she would be back before morning.

"I could draw you your bath my lady and get you really in her absence" she offered.

"It's alright I can handle those myself," I said with a smile sauntering away, where have Olivia gone off to?

I was fully dressed as I walked to Mothers wing, I was already used to it so finding my way wasn't hard, it felt odd walking alone this morning, I always had Olivia by my side, maybe I could ask mother, she probably sent her out to get something for me.

I turned on another lobby and found a gathering there, I blinked, it was Mother along with some servants speaking to her. I hurried there feeling something was wrong.

"Mother is everything alright?"

She quickly turned to me. "Mother?" I urged because I got silence from her when I asked. She took my hand holding onto it tightly.

"Mother, talk to me, what's going on?" I panicked, her eyes were sad, something was wrong and it made me more scared. Her eyes moved and I followed. One of the maids she spoke with held onto torn clothing, I would recognize that color and pattern anywhere, and it was covered in blood.

My heart momentarily stops.
