All Chapters of Love Without Time Limits (AC2): Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

The druid disappeared through the portal and I followed him slowly. I landed on the cold ground with a thud. The cave was surprisingly dry and there was no dripping sound anymore. The druid was looking at the cave exit that would lead us to the outside.So this was what Max and the others who walked out of the tunnel were looking at. We were so close to emerging out on the other side of the river, and I stopped them to stay the night and take the longer route. They must have hated me for that.I walked to the emerald grotto with perfect looking creamy white steps. I wondered what lied beneath but didn't dare to touch the water. Everything about this place gave me creeps."There is no river outside!" The druid exclaimed. "That explains the dry cave, I guess.""I can only see dense forest, and the sun is about to set in a bit. Let's hurry!"He dug into the bag that he brought with him."Hold onto this for a second," He said, handi

The house was unusually loud today. Marcus's sudden arrival had my whole family, including the extended members go crazy with whipping out several dishes."He's just one person! And he doesn't eat much at other people's homes." I tried to stop my mom from serving huge heaps of a dozen items.Marcus's forehead creased with a frown. I closely observed his eating habits when we were traveling back from the fortress."You talk like you know a lot about me." He muttered while looking at my mom for more colcannon."So buttery, I love this!" He said, eating it too quickly."Your wife made it." My mom's words made my face turn beet red."It's nice and buttery but a little too salty for my taste. I am not a fan of cabbage."He changed his opinion on the dish. What was he trying to achieve by pissing me off more?"Looks like you are not the only one that's pissed off here," Iona whispered to me."What the hell should he be ma

Training with Aiden was a nightmare today. Marcus promised to talk more at night and left to meet the Dumnonii tribe after lunch. He figured out most of the crazy stuff on his own these last couple of days. The weight of many things untold got lighter unexpectedly this noon. I just had to reveal one last thing and the hardest thing... that I was not Allena.I rehearsed my lines several times, imagining a different reaction from him each time."Allena, why the fuck didn't you go with him if you were going to think about him all day anyway? Aiden spat in irritation."I need this. I feel stressed.""About what? You have to focus, or just get the hell out.""I'll do better, I promise!"It was much easier on other days when Aiden had me do a mix of things for hours; sprinting, working the core, thrusting heavy wooden weapons at a fast pace, and my least favorite of all, wrestling.Today was the fateful day where wrestling was the main focus. Allena was good at kicking and hitting but unfort

There were wounded bodies lying all over the hillfort grounds, soaked in blood and rain. Everything happened so fast that we couldn't wrap our heads around the events of the night until around dawn.It started raining right after Marcus left me with Iona in the house, which was probably around 3 AM. The fighting continued for another hour or so until all the attackers were either dead or had fled.Aiden and Marcus captured four people alive but they succumbed to their fatal wounds before they got medical help. No answers could be extracted from anyone as to who planned the attack.Neill's father was severely injured before he got hold of one of the raiders. It proved futile though because some of these raiders were just paid fighters who were clueless about where the orders came from."This happens all the time," Selma said. "The hillfort offers some protection but we still get attacked a lot. Most tribes do. We had some peace for the last several weeks b

After losing almost thirty minutes, thanks to Marcus and his horniness, he said "We should resume this after we reach the caves."I smacked him on his chest for leaving me wanting more."We don't have much time left to shop. Let's see if anything from my stepdad's wardrobe fits you. He is pretty fit and athletic. We will take at least a jacket from here."I saw my cell phone, CTA train pass, and wallet that I took to the coffee shop all lying on the side table."Oh yes! I'll make reservations for the restaurant."The battery was at 5%. Someone went through my phone because it wasn't locked anymore. I plugged it into the power outlet, made reservations, and walked to Marcus with the phone."Let me show you something. Smile!" I took a selfie and showed it to him."Wow! This is trickier than any sorcery! And we look so good together.""We do!!""Can we not take it with us?""It needs the power to charge. Else, it wil
