Chapter 63 | To Follow Where She Leads

2020-12-08 02:53:55Marcus's POV
Two days ago (≈ Two weeks back in the Iron Age time)
It was one of my worst nightmares to see Allena paying the price for my past with Laelia. I wasn't willing to admit this to Allena, but I was terrified of Laelia's strength and wrath. I wanted to end my relationship with her the day I kissed Allena. I never felt anything like that with Laelia before, and I somehow knew then that Allena and I were meant to be.
I fought the urge to kill Tulio the very next moment when I saw him touch Allena, but I didn't want to attract Laelia's attention about falling for Allena. And then, like a fool, I got emotional and blurted it out in front of Laelia and the rest of my family when I panicked that she was going to go back that night with her parents. I should have been more careful with Laelia, especially after she had attacked us on our way home from the fortress.
The enchantments around my home were supposed to protect Allena from harm if she was

Marcus's POV"I can barely feel her pulse," said the Druid.His words were getting gloomier by the minute."She has several puncture wounds, and some of these cuts are pretty deep. Lost a lot of blood, chances are, she may not survive."This was the last thing I wanted to hear. Max had a punctured lung and broken ribs. Logan's condition was the most critical of all. He examined him for a long time."Jeez! What kind of an animal are we talking about? Even his bones are cut. The impact must be quite bad."He looked up at me with a bleak expression and said, "I am sorry. Neither of your friends can be saved, and Allena's condition is also doubtful. I don't have the equipment and facilities to keep them going. We need electricity and many other things for all that to happen."Conan interfered before I spoke, "Can the other druids not work their magic somehow? Bring this electric whatever you need?""We don't do that sort of m

The expression on Marcus's face was priceless when he heard me say his name. I felt a warmth flow through my body in a gush. And the first thing I wanted to do and did was to take in some more of his scent."I missed this so much!" I said, holding him tight and kissing his neck.His smell and his proximity had an amazingly calming effect on me. I didn't care that none of this made sense. The face of the girl that I saw in my dream suddenly became clearer, and it was the same person who came to my room and was in my hidden pictures folder. After seeing Marcus in person, it was somehow obvious to me that we were inseparable, and that girl with blue eyes could be no one else but me. It explains why she knew my password or the location of the house key and gun drawer key. Unless there was a more logical explanation that is.I forgot that he couldn't speak English. After holding him for as long as I could, I lifted my head and asked him, "Where were you all these day

I stood in front of Marcus, worried that the intruders might shoot him if he didn't raise his hands up like the Druid and I did. Since Allena shot Tulio with a gun, I hoped that he already knew that guns were much more dangerous than crossbows."What do you want?" I asked Emma.How the hell did she find my address?"The two stones that you got. Hand them over to me."Seriously?"What stones?"How does she know? I looked at the Druid to see if he knew these people but he looked clueless too."Stop wasting your time. The energy profiles from your fingerprints clearly show that you were in contact with them very recently. Just hand them over and we will forget about all this.""For what? Don't you know that they won't work for you?" The Druid asked them.A look of confusion or doubt flashed on their faces before Emma tightened the trip on her gun."We will see that for ourselves. Put them o

Marcus's POVIt was killing me to see her hurting like this. I was all too familiar with this sad face of hers. I was helpless in my dreams, and even now when I was with her, I didn't know the words that could console her.I hated Jon when she first told me that she was with him for five long years. Seeing her in tears today had me realize that Jon was her support system. I was glad he was there for her when I couldn't.She wiped her tears off by rubbing her face against my shirt while I held her tighter."Let's go before Jake finds us again," the Druid said.There was no fireplace in the entire hospital to create the portal. The sorceress said the stone needed to be thrown into the fire once it was activated.The Druid took us to the corner of a cafeteria and waited impatiently for employees warming their food in what he called a microwave. Once we made sure that no one was watching us, he took a metal fork and put it into the microwave, an

Allena's POVThe broken glass created a hissing noise drawing our attention to the sputtering fire. The glass pieces raised high up in the air spinning around taking the shape of a whirlpool before they manifested into the sorceress."We meet again Allena," she said, looking ever so mysterious with long flowing hair.I needed to extract a manual full of "dos and don'ts" from her, I thought. Marcus and I had no clue how to go about breaking this curse. All we knew was that we had about three weeks."I know what you are thinking Marcus," she said, looking at Marcus. What was he thinking? I had no idea."And no, it is forbidden to do what you are thinking, that's why I am here. You can't kill Laelia or Tulio now. It is not allowed to change what already happened."Both Laelia and Tulio were in the fortress at the moment. Oh, the temptation! I even wondered last time if Marcus kissed her goodbye before leaving with us."You can't sa

Marcus and his men crossed the shallow waters near my village and a fight erupted almost immediately. His grandfather was dead several years ago and with him gone, there were no marital alliances or peace negotiations. Marcus and his dad did as they pleased, taking over every Celtic tribe and turning men and women into slaves.With Allena's memories intact, I felt an uncontrolled feeling of hatred for the Romans and their raids. I thought Avus was crazy with his forced marriage contracts and control, but I realized now how important his role was as a peacemaker.All those things that Iona told me about when I first opened my eyes here as Allena last time, about using women for domestic help and men for construction projects and powering catapults in their wars and whatnot, those people were us this time.Their fortress was only a couple of hours away from where our village was. They took over every village that was between the fortress and A

"Allena...""Allena, wake up! Ugh! This girl sleeps like a log," I heard Selma's voice encroaching my sex dream."Wake the hell up Allena! Marcus and his family are almost here.""Is she still sleeping?" I heard Iona chuckle.I had no mood to open my eyes or talk to these people. Today is going to be one of the worst days in my life if Neill's plan fails and I end up getting engaged to Marcus.I heard my father's voice booming through the room now. Bloody hell! I sprang out of my bed immediately and grabbed some clothes to run to the bathroom with my eyes still closed."We are not going to a funeral. What in the world are you wearing?" I heard him complain the minute I walked out to eat breakfast."He already decided to marry me. Why do I have to impress him now?""Go change! Don't make me repeat my words. Iona, go help your sister. You both are not going to come out until she looks good enough at the very least.""Aaarg

"This knot symbolizes eternity and the cycle of life." One of the druids explained to Marcus. He nodded happily while holding my hand and looking into my eyes.I didn't like this one bit. My reactions to his eyes, his touch, and his presence were all worrying me. Without even realizing it, my eyes were stealing glances and I was leaning in closer to him. Anger coursed through my body when I realized that I was thinking about feeling his irresistible lips with my own. And to make things worse, he seemed to have noticed my struggle.He was probably used to this kind of attention from women. After all, his girlfriend was one of the prettiest women I have ever seen. He must have some mental condition where he derives pleasure from torturing people and seeing them burn with lust for him.What would Neill think of me?I fought with him only last night, calling him insecure and getting pissed at him for not trusting me. I don't trust my own body anymore. A

"How can that be? Billy took them?""Liam Cooper checked them out."Marcus and the Druid had some heated exchange of words about the Druid not telling Marcus about Liam earlier."We were focussed on finding Alyssa's home address back then, not who Liam Cooper was or why he exists, remember?"We went to find someone named Jake, the doctor."You folks are driving me insane. That guy looked exactly like him but spoke perfect English," Jake said, pointing to Marcus."Please ask him about Allena's condition," Marcus prompted him.I was so confused about who this other Allena was if Alyssa was in the alternate world as Allena. How many worlds have these people infested?The Druid translated Jake's words for Marcus, "Looks like she underwent the last surgery and was out of danger. As expected, he is going crazy as to why both Allena and Alyssa are still unconscious. He is also suspicious about who we really are. Alyssa said you were h

Marcus's feet staggered, and I caught him from falling to the ground.She loaded the next one to aim at Marcus again."No! Stop!!"He seemed to be awake but not able to get off the ground. What the hell did she shoot him with? Poison?I ran to stop her but was too late. She took a shot at him again."Stop, don't kill him." My voice cracked when I tried to beg.She grabbed another dart and was loading once more. I reached close enough to attack her, but she pulled out a strange weapon from underneath her tunic and moved toward me threateningly, speaking in a foreign language.But what was she going to shoot me with? She loaded nothing in there. It was too tiny to be a weapon. Was she fooling me?I disregarded her warning and pulled my knife out from my boot while grabbing her hair with my other hand.I heard a click sound and saw her nervous expression before she pressed it again. She was too slow, and I had already

I followed Marcus to the hallway where all the guests were accommodated, including my family. He lightly tapped on a door and stepped in.The windows facing the courtyard were all shut and I couldn't hear a thing. I exited the house through the garden entrance to see if the room had windows facing the river like ours. I scaled up to the second floor and stayed behind the window curtains."It just occurred to me now. No wonder she couldn't visit Chicago." I heard Marcus's voice."If the stones work only one way, how were we able to return then?""I think by one way, it means the place where they can be activated from. We can activate my stone only from here. And hers only from Chicago. We used the portal you created from here to return. If the portal had closed, I think we would have been stuck in Chicago."Chicago, portal, stones... what was he talking about? Maybe they were speaking in a mixed language because most of it sounded like gibb
Love Without Time Limits (AC2) Chapter 83 | His Touch
After the wedding feast, Marcus was beginning to look distracted and stressed again. His eyes wandered around, searching for someone. Who else would he be looking for?"Are you looking for Laelia?"I couldn't hide the anger out of my voice.He made me feel so special that I forgot all about her existence until now."Laelia is not here," he said"Was she not invited? Or did she not want to come?"If I had to attend my boyfriend's wedding, I would probably be a crying mess.He looked at me with amusement."Why do you care?""I don't care. I will take it as an insult though if you stare at her while I am in your arms."He stroked my cheek, setting it on fire, "How can I stare at anyone else?"I was at a loss for words. I should be feeling ashamed of myself. I made such overconfident claims, even said to Marcus many times, that I loved Neill. Here I was, dying to hear such cheesy words from him.Ev

Alternate World TwoAllena's POV"I think he suffers from a personality disorder," I told my mother."That won't stop this wedding. Stop making stories up and look down so that she can do your hair well.""It's true! I know no one would believe me if I told them. He has three different personalities, all different from one another.""And what are these?" Selma asked.She thinks I was already so into him already that his hot and cold behavior was bothering me."The first one is the arrogant jerk who is madly in love with Laelia and doesn't give two shits about me."It was my mother's turn to look amused."Does this girlfriend really exist? Or did you make this story up as well? Where is she? I expected her to dress up better than you and taunt you already. That's the kind of impression you gave me about this imaginary woman.""He must have sent her away somewhere when he got possessed by that second personality of
Love Without Time Limits (AC2) Chapter 81 | The Disappearance
Alternate World TwoMarcus's POVI struggled to focus on what was important. Things were a mess in Chicago, and I was clueless as to what exactly was going on.Thankfully, the Druid from here was very cooperative. He looked almost a decade younger than the other Druid. I was wary about giving him all the details at once and freaking him out. He was already quite panicked that I knew his time traveler secret.But once I talked to him long enough explaining my situation, and when I told him that an older version of him existed, he was all up for helping and meeting his older self. He wanted to know what he had done differently so far in the parallel universe, and all the adventures he went on.The older Druid definitely went back further in time or lived longer in the past to have aged so much more. This younger Druid was particularly excited about portals to the alternate world, which I had no idea even existed. If they did, it w
Love Without Time Limits (AC2) Chapter 80 | A Sad Ending
I wanted to feel anger or indifference. I just wanted to cry my heart out while in his arms."Please don't leave me," he said.I was so determined to leave until this moment. But now I was wondering if I should leave it for Allena to decide. She knows what has been going on so far, and unlike me, she may already know what she wants. I did not have the heart to say no to him. I also did not have much time left with him.After a long and tight hug, he released me from his arms. I saw him look vulnerable for the first time."I am still learning to love, and I will probably never learn to live without you. Please, stay."His words made me cry more. They also had me realize that I could not leave him in the lurch. What if I forgive him today and Allena tells him to fuck off tomorrow?"I have to tell you something, something very important.""Oh yeah? Me too.""Um... What I have to say is not easy to explain. When I show you so

Something inside me had snapped. His words delivered such painful blows that feelings of hopelessness engulfed me; hopelessness about now and forever.I pushed my way out of the kitchen, with a dozen servants watching the drama. Selma followed me to the room, but I didn't want to talk to anyone for as long as possible. I closed the door and locked it, pretending to not see her.What just happened? How I wished this was one nightmare while under sedation.I locked myself in for the next two days, not caring about Marcus or breaking the curse. Nothing mattered anymore.I knew I shouldn't feel so devastated. We didn't share the soulmate bond. I wouldn't even be here two days from now. It was like getting mad at my Marcus for something Damen did like when he lied to Nyneve. The sorceress said 'about' three weeks. I hoped each day that it was the last day.I guess I already blew up my chance to find the portal and do something meaningful. Ma
Love Without Time Limits (AC2) Chapter 78 | Hard to Love
They say it's very hard to love something that doesn't need you. But it was harder to stop loving the ruthless version of Marcus, even if he didn't want me.He avoided me at all costs for the rest of the afternoon. He said I had to stay in my room until my ankle healed completely. It would save me from all the back-breaking work for sure, but how was I ever going to get another chance to sneak out of the fortress then?I considered telling him about it, asking him to take me to the cave himself. That was the easiest and safest way. I walked to the training grounds, wondering if he was over there."Where do you think you are going?" Logan stopped me."I am looking for the Legatus.""And why would he want to meet you?""He would very much want to, and that's why I am looking for him.""Get back to wherever you are supposed to be. You don't own this place, so stop walking around as if you do."Huh!"I will go back, just tel
