We're better off being together than being miserable alone.

-----------------------------------

BLAIR

Mum's cold gaze met my shocked ones. Then, she slapped my man again. Tensed, I walked up to her to stop her from inflicting more pain on him.

"You have quite the nerve, don't you?! You ruined my daughter's life! Leave her alone and go back to hell where you belong!" She hissed at Mikael who stared at her, a blank look on his face.

"Mum, please stop it. Leave him alone" I said, taking Mikael's hand in mine.

"What is he doing here in your house?! Have you been sleeping with him already?!" Mum demanded and I made Mikael to stand behind me.

"Mum! Stop it already! Please!" I said. She narrowed her eyes.

"I am disappointed in you, Blair--"

I cut her off, my fist clenched as frustration built within me. "So what?! Disappointed because I fell in love with my soulmate? I chose to be with him, mum. There's absolutely nothing you can do about it. You just have to deal with it. You sho

    BLAIR Five weeks had passed since my mum's sudden visit. Altan had not shown any symptom of severe depression or illness. But, I was suspicious that he could be hiding it from me. Lorenzo and I was still having a hard time figuring out a way to break the curse. Altan was more affectionate towards me and while I really enjoyed it, there was a lingering feeling that wouldn't go away.The feeling of time running out. I was wide awake on my bed. The bed felt empty without Mikael in it. He had travelled to Canada for a business trip four days ago. He was supposed to return the day after today. I could hear the ticking of the wall clock and it did nothing to ease my tension. Instead, it made it worse. Letting out an angry yell, I threw my pillow to the ground and sat up in bed, bringing my knees to my chin. For a moment, I stared at my phone which was lying not too far away, on my nightstand. I really wanted to hear Mikael's voice, so I reached out for my phone and grabbed i

Aria asked, her voice small. "Calm down" I said and she took a step backwards. "You're not... you're not human? Who is he? Is he like you?" She stuttered, her eyes glassy. "Yes, he's like me..."She cut me off, her eyes still wide with terror."W-what are you, then?" She asked and I let out a sigh. "You have to sit down for me to explain it all to you" I said.She shook her head, her gaze resting on Mikael who could barely hide the fact that he was in pain, at this point. "Is he in pain?" She asked and I nodded. "Trust me, I'm going to explain it to you. You don't have to freak out. He really needs my help. Can you wait for me?" I said. She took another step backwards, a confused look on her face. "This... this is too much. I can't handle it right now" she breathed and opened the door. "Aria,

Mikael snapped, rising to his feet. He looked so angry and his eyes were glowing fiercely. I became worried when I saw that his hands were already glowing. "Mikael, calm down... your hands..." I said, trying to get him to calm down."Shut up! Don't tell me what I already know!" He hissed and I lowered my gaze, my heart aching in my chest. He punched the wall and my eyes went wide. He seemed to have lost control of himself. It was something I knew that wasn't really his fault. So, I moved closer to him. But, he moved backwards, his eyes wide. "Don't" he rasped, shaking his head. "Kael--""Don't come any closer. I don't want to hurt you. Don't make me hurt you" he said and I swallowed hard. "Fine, just talk to me. What's wrong?" I said. "I don't want to talk to you!" He snapped. The dinning table

"His rose turned blue, what am I going to do? We've been trying to break the curse, but nothing is working! Nothing! I can't lose him again, I can't" I sobbed. Lorenzo gently patted my back, to comfort me. "Don't lose hope yet. The petals have not started to fall yet" he said to me.Mikael suddenly let out a groan and we both turned to look at him. I rushed to his side when he opened his eyes. He'd only been unconscious for less than thirty minutes but he looked so unwell. I hoped that he wasn't in as much pain as before."Water" he croaked and I poured him a glass of water. I placed a hand under his head and propped him up a little. Then, he drank some water. "How are you feeling?" Enzo asked Mikael who closed his eyes briefly. "Everything hurts" he rasped, his face contorted with pain. I exchange

I stared at Death, unable to wrap my head around what he'd just said. I still couldn't process it. "What? Surprised?" Death said and vanished out of sight. He appeared on the couch, his scythe still in his grip. "I don't understand" I said and he sighed. "I know you're not dumb, Altan. So, let me tell you why I need to get rid of her" he said and I nodded. "Hera has been breaking the rules guiding the universe and life itself. The curse she placed on you and Athena goes against every rule. She must be stopped. And, the only way to stop her is by making her cease from existence" he said and I frowned."But, you're Death. It should be easy for you to get rid of her even with a snap of your fingers" I pointed out. He let out an irritated sigh. "You have no idea how the curse works, do

"This is Altan's home, right?" she asked and I frowned."Who are you?" I asked and she took a deep breath. "My name is Melissa and I know where you can find the Crescent sword""What? How do you-"She cut me off. "You should at least let me in. Where's Altan? I have to warn him" she said, already pushing past me. "Woah, woah, woah. Hold your horses" I said, grabbing her hand to stop her. "Who the hell are you?" I asked and she let out an exasperated sigh."I told you, my name is Melissa and I know where-""Cut the crap. It's all bullshit. Who are you? How do you know Altan or me? What do you really want?" She frowned. "I know this is a lot to take in. But, you have to please let me in. I don't have much time.

    BLAIR "Hey" I said, beaming at him. He blinked, a blank look in his eyes. My smile faltered as he pulled away from me, not taking his eyes off me. "Are you okay?" I asked when he continued to stare at me for a while. After a few seconds, he finally spoke. "Who are you?"My eyes went wide as I struggled to process what Mikael had just said. I didn't want to believe that he'd suddenly suffered amnesia. I didn't want it to be true. So, I let out a nervous chuckle, tucking a lock of hair behind my ear. "That's not a nice way to start the day, Kael. Now's really not the time to crack jokes like that" I said and he frowned. "How do you know me? Who am I to you? Do I look like I'm joking?" He demanded and I let out a strangled gasp. "You really don't... remember me?" I asked and his frown deepened. "What's the last thing you remember, Kael?" I asked and he blinked. "I remember firing my secretary at the office" he said and my heart sank. "My name is Blair Kennedy. I'm your new sec

    MIKAEL "Are you alright? You look so upset" Blair said from her position by the entrance of my room. I stared out the window, trying to distract myself from the feeling bubbling up inside of me. I was so pissed at Hera. Blair and I had always been like puppets on her string and she would continue to mess with us over and over again, just because she found it fun to watch. I was sick and tired of it all. So, I promised myself that this time, I would make sure Hera is put in her place. She has toyed with us for far too long. Knowing that she'd messed with my memories made me even more pissed. She'd toyed with my emotions, she'd toyed with my mental health, she'd toyed with my body. But, she'd never made me forget it all just like she did, yesterday. I was relieved that Blair had managed to snap me out of it. Now, the rage won't leave me. I needed to get my hands on Hera even if I died trying. I remember seeing the tears on Blair's face once I'd gained my memories back. The pa

  • Love Beyond Realms   Epilogue

    BLAIR I miss him. I really do. I think of him everyday. I see him everywhere. I hear his voice. I know it's all my imagination, but I don't want to let go of these fragments of my imaginations. They are probably the only thing keeping me sane. Our daughter, Althea has been growing up so fast. She's also really smart. She rarely asks about her father after the day she found me crying in the bedroom with Mikael's photo in my hands. She has his grey eyes and my red hair. Infact, she looks a lot like her father. But, she's just as feisty as me. My little girl doesn't say it, but I know she wants to have a dad, just like the rest of her classmates. Tomorrow is her birthday. Her eight birthday. Yes, it has been eight years since her father died and every time I think of Althea's birth, I'm reminded of the death of her father, the love of my life. I'm a working class woman as I've always wanted to be. Mikael had left his company under my name. I'd taken his position as CEO of Kane's

    BLAIR Mikael was awake when I got to the car. He gazed at me with a look that said that he knew that the appointed time had finally arrived. I pressed a kiss to his forehead and lips. "See? I told you we would make it to midnight," I said and he embraced me. I held on to him, not wanting to let go just yet. "It's okay, Blair. My time has come, you know that," he whispered in my ear. I let out a shaky breath and slowly pulled away. Mikael cupped the side of my face and kissed me, a single tear rolling down his right cheek. "I love you," he said, his voice shaky. "I love you too," I rasped and he gave me a pained smile. I wiped his tears with my fingers. "Don't cry or I will have to start crying. It won't be nice," I told him. He placed a trembling hand on my stomach, his gaze locked with mine. "Take care of her, okay?" He croaked and I nodded."I will."He closed his eyes and let out a sharp exhale. He took out a butterfly charm bracelet and helped me slip it on. "It is a sy

    BLAIR I remained awake until it clocked 12:00am. It was officially Mikael's twenty fourth birthday. Aria and I had prepared a cake and decorated Mikael's room a little bit. While we did so, Enzo remained by Mikael's bedside, watching over him.I switched off the lights and went to lie down beside Mikael. He wasn't wearing a shirt and his skin was warmer than usual. I pressed butterfly kisses down his spine until he stirred. I buried my face in the crook of his neck and pressed another kiss to his skin."Happy birthday, love" I whispered and he chuckled weakly. Aria switched on the lights and Mikael took in the sight of the 'Happy Twenty Fourth Birthday' banner, the smile on his face, growing."Happy birthday, Kael" Lorenzo and Aria stated with a smile on their faces. "Gosh, you're old. You know you're over five centuries old, right?" Enzo teased and Mikael snorted inamusement. "Here comes the cake," Aria said in a singsong voice. She was carrying the cake we'd both baked sev

  • Love Beyond Realms   46: Final Days

    LORENZO Watching Aria sleep had become more of a hobby, knowing that soon I would no longer be by her side in a matter of time. It's been two days since I visited Mikael's home. Two days since Blair told me about Moira's appearance to her. Two days since I accepted my fate. Aria was yet to know about the fact that I was going to die pretty soon. She'd probably noticed that something was bothering me, but she hadn't talked about it, yet. I exhaled slowly, running my fingers through my hair. I was certainly not afraid of dying. But, I was worried about Aria. I knew she didn't want to loose me. If she knew that I was going to die, it would tear her apart. I didn't want to make her cry, but I had to let her know the truth. I needed to prepare her for her future without me. I brushed her hair away from her face, my gaze resting on her serene features. She was beautiful. There was no doubt about that. She was also my first and last love. She made me have a purpose and I was really g

  • Love Beyond Realms   45: Fight Or Flight

    BLAIR Two days after Enzo's visit, I was feeling worse. My headaches had worsened and my nausea became really frustrating. It was at that point that I knew that something was up. Mikael had fallen asleep in the bedroom, not too long ago.He was doing a lot of sleeping as of recent. I went into the bathroom. Then, I took off my shirt and stood in front of the mirror. I seemed to have put on a little weight. I knew what this could mean, but I needed to know for sure if it was what I was thinking. My hands were glowing a bright purple as I channeled my magic into the palm of my hands. Taking a deep breath, I placed my hand on my stomach and closed my eyes. I could feel a different energy within me. Tears filled my eyes and when I opened them, my gaze fell on the mirror. The mirror was reflecting the yellowish waves of energy radiating from my stomach. I slowly sank to my knees, tears rolling down my cheeks in floods. I had mixed feelings about my condition. I was carrying Mikael'

  • Love Beyond Realms   44: Cruel Reality

    BLAIR My eyelids were heavy with exhaustion but I couldn't sleep. I was also painfully well aware of the digits displayed on the digital clock on the nightstand. I had a pounding headache and I was feeling a little nauseous.Mikael was lying on the bed, asleep and his breathing was strained. I couldn't do anything but watch over him, afraid that if I closed my eyes for a second, I would lose him to the cold hands of death. "All you have to do is accept your cruel reality before Hera takes advantage of your hesitation" a small voice at the back of my mind said. My gaze rested on Mikael's pale face and I stroked the side of his face with shaky fingers. He looked so tired and drained.He used to be so full of life. I recalled how we'd met in this lifetime, the way he'd acted so coldly, the way he called me a different name, the times he called me Scaredy-cat. I thought about everything Moira had said to me and I wondered if I could really do it. I wondered if I could ever gain th

  • Love Beyond Realms   43: Labyrinth

    MIKAEL The air was freezing cold and I had no idea where I was. I was in a dark room with no window or door. I took a step forward. Then, I took another. A door suddenly appeared in front of me, bright light illuminating the room that was once so dark. I took a deep breath and made my way towards the exit of the room. Once I stepped out of the room, I was surprised to find myself in the middle of Hera's courtyard. Hera was speaking to two other women I could recognize. Cordelia, the goddess of water and Nyx, the goddess of the night. The three women were sitting under the tree of discord. "There's something I discovered today" Hera began and the other two women raised their brows."What is it? Did you perhaps find out who the new guard really is?" Nyx asked. "Of course, I did. I discovered that his mother had given him a different name apart from the one given to him by the Fates" Hera said and my frown deepened. I had no clue about what she was talking about. "Why wou

    BLAIR My gaze rested on Mikael who was lying right beside me, my head on his bare chest. I blinked and raised my head to look around the room. I'd been asleep few seconds ago. I could've sworn someone had called my name. Mikael was still asleep and there was clearly no one in the room. But, I wasn't convinced that what I'd heard was a mere fragment of my imagination.I placed my hand on Mikael's forehead and heaved a sigh of relief at the absence of a fever. I sat up slowly, gently tucking the blankets around Kael. I got out of bed with no clothes on. Letting out a sharp exhale, I grabbed a night robe and slipped it on. 'Athena' I froze and turned to look at the double doors leading to the terrace. I moved towards them and opened the door. Cold breeze ruffled my hair, goose bumps appearing on my skin. Once I stepped out into the terrace, I was startled by the sight of the glowing figure standing at the far end of the terrace, her back to me.Her hair was a mixture of black and

    BLAIR Sunlight seeped through the window and cast it's glow in Mikael's room. We were lying on the bed. Kael was asleep and I was wide awake. I hadn't slept a wink throughout the night. He'd been so sick, I'd feared that last night was when I would loose him again. I watched him breathe, relieved that he'd made it through the night and was still very much alive. He coughed into his fist and cracked an eye open. I gave him a smile as I picked up a small towel and wiped his bloodied hand. He finally opened his eyes and looked around the room. His gaze finally met mine and an endearing smile curved my lips. "Yes, you're still alive" I rasped and he closed his eyes briefly. He looked so relieved. I held his hand and pressed a kiss to his knuckles. After Mikael had freshened up, I changed the sheets and he laid down on the bed with me beside him."How are you feeling?" I asked and he chuckled softly. "Like I've been hit by a truck?" He rasped. I rolled up the sleeve of his hoodie.
