Faking the Mate Bond 77. Game of obsession
[Zephyr’s POV] There are times when everything right seems wrong and only when everything goes wrong… it seems as if we have done something right. There had been a question in my mind. I had been restlessly searching for the answer to it ever since I lost Diana, but never got one. “Princess,” Dia. “How did you die in your previous life?” I asked. Diana flinched at my question as if she was re-experiencing those moments when the flames charred her skin. She shut her eyes and remained silent. “Was he the reason for your death? The man you call Mask?” I asked. “You said he attacked your mate’s pack, killed him. So…” I licked my lips. “... I think it’s only natural for you to hate him, right? I still don’t understand why and how you died.” I felt the dark thorny vines crawl all around my body and clench themselves, prodding every inch of my skin. The same feeling I had when I jumped into the flames that raged around Diana’s body. I froze in those flames like the shadow of the thor

[Diana’s POV] When Zephyr said that he wanted to play the game of obsession where we hide and seek from each other, he confessed that he had things to hide. Sides of himself that he hadn’t shown to me, things about himself that he hadn’t told me. But it also meant he wanted me to seek those sides of him. He wasn’t trying to hide anymore; he wanted to be found but not so easily and I don’t know why that sent thunders of excitement running into my veins. Having the freedom to be discovered, that’s something most relationships fail to accomplish because people have the habit of hiding until they are pushed to their limits and through this game I was allowed to push Zephyr to those limits without fearing a breakup or the negative effect it might have on our relationship. I was excited and scared at the same time. Excited to discover Zephyr deeper than he presented himself and scared that I might discover something that was better left untouched. But I could think about all of those th

[Diana’s POV] We walked into the ballroom. I was trying to keep my gown from sticking to my body. It was insane how I was covered from the neck to toe, yet the paranoia of nakedness hit so hard. Even if I lifted the hem of my gown slightly, the breeziness would swirl within, making me more conscious of the mess between my legs. “Everything ok down there, Diana?” Zephyr whispered in a teasing tone. I snapped a glare at him. “I should have gotten you hard before coming here, and then I would have asked you the same question.” He chuckled, caressing Carol on my shoulder. He leaned in and I thought he would whisper something, but glided his finger up my nape, making me shudder as the goosebumps ran all over me. He pecked my ear and whispered, “you can make me hard just by breathing, Diana. Breathe just as hard as you did the last time you had me in your beautiful mouth.” I gulped hard, feeling my crotch heat with another string of tightness building up all around my body. “How abo

[Diana’s POV] “Princess… wait.” Zephyr caught up to from the dance floor to where Miya was. “Carol, come.” I stretched out my arms. Carol, who was sitting bored with a lot of attitude, got to its feet, flapped its flame-like tiny wings and half jumped and half flew into my arms. “I am sorry, Miya. I am exhausted. I will go ahead. See you tomorrow.” I said and without even listening to her reply, and dragged Zephyr out with me. We stopped after covering some distance into the sparsely lit corridor. “Princess, this isn’t the right way. The way to our room is that way,” he said, pointing to the other side. Panting, I looked at him. “Is it about the dance? Did I go overboard?” He asked. “I loved it,” I said impassively, with slight rage. Zephyr lifted his brows, “now… if you say you love it with such a furious expression… I don’t know what to do? Should I be happy you loved it or be scared to my death that you loved it?” He tried to joke around, but at that moment, nothing was w

[Diana’s POV] “Look who is up?” Zephyr said, leaning against the doorframe of the bathroom with water dripping from his wet fingers dangling on his forehead, almost cloaking his eyes. He was wearing black pants and had nothing on top. I sat up on the bed, leaning against the headboard, staring at my sexy husband with a smile. I rubbed my back. “Sore?” Zephyr asked, walking round the bed. The canopy and curtains were already set aside properly, the bedsheets were changed, and I was in a dark green silk gown, my hair damp. He kissed my forehead. “You cleaned me up?” I asked. “I messed you up, so it’s my responsibility to clean you up as well. Don’t worry, I know vagina is self cleansing, so I didn’t use soap, just normal water. Don’t want to disturb my wife’s pH…” “What the heck!” I laughed. “And I love when you wear green, so there you are in a comfy green dressing gown. Anything else you want me to keep in mind when I clean you up? Because I am sure I will be cleaning up my

[Diana’s POV]“... so my dear friends Archer and Vilkus will check your manas. The ones with mana will have to wear these mana blockers,” Jihun said, showing us the cuff bracelets. Archer and Vilkus, Miya’s guardian, lit the incense in golden censers. “What are they doing?” I asked as Jihun went on explaining how the bracelets blocked manas.“Those white incense smoke are highly sensitive to mana, so even if there’s a little trace of mana inside someone, the smoke will change color. Based on the color of the smoke, they decide how strong mana an individual holds,” Janus said. “For the censer to work, one must hold its base in their palm. That’s how they work as mana detectors. A highly accurate one.”“Oh…” I nodded as the Uriko twins held the censers in their palms.Asashi’s censer smoke was still white, but the smoke from Aera’s censer turned blue.“Woah! Does this mean Aera has mana?” Reese asked.“Yes, and a powerful one. Average magic folk turn censer smoke blue,” Janus said.“H

[Diana’s POV]“I feel sorry for whoever’s nightmare this is,” Reese said. “I bet their mental health is all fucked up.”I had turned my back against the titans, feeling nauseous.“I wouldn’t want to be that body between those teeth,” Zephyr said, and I almost threw up.“I think as soon as we step on the snowy road they will attack us because we have been standing here for several minutes and they haven’t changed their positions even by an inch. All they do is stare with those creepy bulb-like eyes,” Reese said. “Is there no other way?” Zephyr asked with a casual sigh.“Well, do you see some other road? It’s only one road here, and it is through those blue giant men,” Reese said. “And who said you could talk to me, lowborn?”“Who was talking to you, highborn?”“Are you fucking with me?”“I got standards, highborn…”Reese snarled at Zephyr, grabbing his collar, “I will throw you right into their mouth if you don’t shut your filthy mouth this instant.”“Please stop it, you two!” I glare

[Diana’s POV]“Maybe they aren’t here to make things worse, look,” Zephyr said. I looked at the zombies that flooded our way seconds ago, and were divided into smaller groups towards the others.“Use them as bait?” Reese said.“No. I don’t think they will be used as baits. They are too smart for that. But we can’t let their smartness get the golden dreamcatcher either,” Zephyr said, peering at Kazeal, then skimming his eyes to Devon.“What’s the plan?” I asked.“The most important part of the plan is you are not going in there with us,” Zephyr said. “You will be here on the land...”“Why? Because I am a girl?” I frowned.“Why do you girls always think we men are trying to protect you? The thought never crossed your mind that we keep you away from troubles because we might need saving later if things go wrong. We protect you because we need you to protect us later. You will stay up here because we’d need someone outside the pit to pull us out. The pit’s deep and steep. For our quick e

Faking the Mate Bond 141. Under the starry night
[Zephyr’s POV] Diana and Kaz regained their consciousness as the three of us returned to the sky, our battlefield. Kaz looked at Diana and then at me. The mana I had gathered around me was massive enough to cause an explosion that would end half of the world. I knew I had to stop, but I didn’t know how to stop it. Diana was already weak and upon that I was absorbing mana right from her soul. I need to get her away from me… Kaz flew beside Diana. Grabbing her arm, he tore her away from my proximity. Breaking the gravity of my soul that pulled mana from his soul, he pushed Diana towards the ground. “Zephyr…” Diana’s scream faltered as she neared the ground. I whistled sharply. The winds, combined with Kaz’s threads of mana, surrounded her and helped her land safely on the ground. Kaz turned to me. “It’s you against me now. Kill me and end this last war,” he said. “If I do that, who will save this world?” I said. Kaz frowned. “What do you mean?” “With the amount of mana

[Diana’s POV]Grave?I felt my body go limp.I shook my head. No. This isn’t possible.Archer and Willa teleported me to the graveyard where Janus and lady Ilana had dug out a coffin.Carol shrieked agonizingly over the coffin.“No. No…” Stumbling, I fell beside the coffin.Janus dug his claws into the coffin and broke open the lid.“Zeph!”“Zephyr!”“Son!”Archer and Janus got Zephyr out of the coffin and laid him on the ground.His pulse and breaths were weak. He was unconscious.I covered my mouth with my hands. Kazeal had buried him alive.“Zeph! Zephyr!” Janus shook his body. “Hey man! Get up!”“Zephyr! Son!” Lady Ilana tapped his cheek.Archer made his way beside Zephyr. He asked us to move away from Zephyr to allow air circulation around him.“Ila, check his pulses and tell me if they turn weak,” Archer said and lady Ilana scuttled beside Zephyr, keeping her fingers on his pulses.“Messiah!” Kazeal roared.Janus stood in front of me and Willa, glaring right into Kazeal’s eyes.
Faking the Mate Bond 139. Light through darkness
[Diana’s POV](Trigger warning: Reader’s discretion advised.)***Ever since I returned to the Pretis palace, I knew something was off.But it took me a while to realize that something was wrong with Zephyr. I felt it odd when I told him I wanted to rest and he just let me rest.Whenever I say I wanted to rest, we usually end up having sex, but this Zephyr was trying to avoid intimacy with me. Yes, he hugged me, but that was it. He even avoided kisses. I will not lie. I was scared for some time that maybe everything that was going around me was affecting our relationship. The thought that Zephyr might actually be falling out of love with me haunted me until Janus asked me the same thing.Janus told me how Zephyr was not Zephyr, even though he almost completely acted like Zephyr.That’s when I sensed it and I wished we were wrong, so I checked it for myself yesterday.Kazeal might have prepared himself to be like Zephyr in every aspect, but I knew he wouldn’t ever be able to prepare
Faking the Mate Bond 138. Illusion of traps
[Kazeal’s POV]Diana cowered into my arms, clenching on to me as if I was her last lifeline left. I was.“Relax, Dia. These are just nightmares.”These nightmares are my gift to you, my Messiah. I hope you see for yourself what you have done to this world.It’s still not too late. You still have time. Stop before things slip from my hands as well.I stroked her back as she drifted back into sleep. Another round of those nightmares that I had designed to break her slowly, but certainly.I sighed, peering at the ceiling, hugging her tighter as she panted with a slight tremble taking over her body again.“No… no…” she mumbled.I intertwined my fingers with hers.“It’s alright, Dia. Everything’s fine, just fall asleep.”Stay dreaming and leave the reality to me. I will bring everything you have misplaced in this world back to its place.*****“You don’t have to attend to meeting if you aren’t feeling well—” She had the power to make me speechless without even trying.Words seized from my
Faking the Mate Bond 137. War and aftermath
[Diana’s POV]It hadn’t even been a week to father’s burial, and Willa was gone. She hadn’t taken a single thing from the palace. All she left behind was a note saying that she no longer had a reason to stay in the Xenon pack.Often the walls that look the strongest are the hollowest. Reese was in the same condition.Most of the time, Reese stayed by father’s grave.“It’s dinnertime, Reese. Let’s go.” I placed my hand on his shoulder.He was lost in nothingness. Recently, silence had been his only response.I knelt beside him.He had completed father’s burial without shedding a tear. But that didn’t mean father’s death hadn’t affected him at all. And after Willa left, his condition had worsened. He was bottling himself up.Although he kept himself busy with the pack affairs and the war with Gloratia, it was at times like these I could see his pain in his eyes.Meanwhile, because of Serith’s powers, I knew father was in a better place, reunited with mother. Even so, I felt his absence
Faking the Mate Bond 136. Don't blame me
[Zephyr’s POV]What we have been preparing for has finally begun.Diana had waged a war against the outer world. By now, the demonic werewolves would have started appearing all around Lycannora.After demonisation she had changed a lot. Diana’s appearance seemed as a reflection of Serith herself. Her horns, the dark vine tattoos that wrapped around her hands and around her neck. Her blood-red eyes that had the power to stop time if she wished. Her aura that held the gravity that could alter dimensions and space. Diana’s presence overpowered almost everyone and everything on the battlefield.The goddess of the underworld had surfaced and the Serithian war had begun.It hadn’t even been an hour and the Wenos army seemed so subdued. There was no way mortals could keep up with a goddess’ incarnation. The only person who had the power to stand against Diana was the Saint.Devon walked closer to Diana and stood between her and his army.“Prince, what are you doing?” Ragnar asked Devon.“R
Faking the Mate Bond 135. She's gone
[Kazeal’s POV]She’s gone.I had searched every corner of the Heat Knox tower.Diana has escaped.A stifling bitterness rose in my chest like a burning stab. My crazily pulsating heart was only darkening my thoughts and coherence.Clenching my fists and jaws, I shut my eyes.It’s not like I have never been angry before, but I had never experienced such an excruciating wrath before. Its extremeness was sinful.I stared at my palms.How did she slip out of my grip?The warmth of her body and the softness of her skin are still afresh in my hands.When did she obscure my senses?How in heaven did she escape?I don’t get it. I don’t understand this.Wiping my sweat around my lips, I sat on her bed. Raking back my hair, I held my burning head.Taking a deep breath, I licked my dry lips.There is no way she can escape this place on her own. Not even with her Messiah powers. The only key is with me and without my mana, the barriers around the tower cannot even be sensed by normal wizards.But
Faking the Mate Bond 134. Let's rewrite our stars
[Zephyr’s POV]I kept whistling in the eolian language, summoning a storm around Alpha Urza’s body as a barrier from the rest of the battlefield. Kneeling beside his body, I peered at him blankly. I held his cold hand in mine. With a blurry vision, I looked at the sky. Kaz’s men hovered over the Wenos palace. Through the blustering winds cutting me off from the rest of the world, I looked at my army that was in constant struggle with the Saint’s men. I couldn’t keep track of everyone from where I was, but I could tell that Archer and mother had left the battlefield a while ago. “We, the wizards under the Saint’s command, give you the Jupitus army a chance to retreat. Stop the attacks and retreat or else we will have to pacify you by any means possible.” A wizard hovering right above Asashi and Aera warned. So finally, Kazeal has openly involved himself in this war. “We do not wish any harm to the innocent. We are here to preserve peace and stop the war. If any of you launch any
