The girl's body was reminiscent of a beautiful goddess, long black hair draped around her body and wrapping her magnificent curves and silky skin.
As she walked into the water, her steps were confident and asured, unafraid to show off the curves barely hidden by her thin clothes. With a high, practiced jump, she leapt into the water.
Splash!!
She dove into the deep end of the pool. When she resurfaced, her black hair shone with the water, the afternoon sun warming her back.
The sight of the woman splashing in the clear water was perhaps the most beautiful sight Ery had the chance to lay his eyes on.
Klea was enjoying herself and, for that mont, she played in the water as if there was nothing to worry about in this world. anwhile, Ery was srized with the sight.
The refreshing breeze, the clear blue water reflecting the golden sunlight, the sense of calm from the gently swaying trees, all combined into a tranquil and beautiful sight.
It was one of those rare monts where Ery could enjoy the surroundings and feel comfortable without having to think about all the worries for tomorrow.
A few monts passed, Klea swam a few laps before swimming close to him.
"The water in here is a godsend. Your land is very beautiful, Ery."
From the bottom of his heart, Ery wished to complint her, to tell her that even the most beautiful sights in this land were nothing compared to her beauty. However, it felt like his tongue was weighed down and his throat dried, no words ca out from his mouth.
Instead of giving an answer, Ery ended up staring at the beautiful girl.
Realizing Ery's gaze was transfixed on her, Klea erged from the water and walked closer to him, not stopping before they were so close their breath intermingled with each other.
Before Ery could ask, she leaned close to his ear and whispered, her warm breath tickling his ear. "Really, Ery? You shouldn't swim with your clothes on…" On instinct, Ery tried to scoot away, but Klea's quick movent stopped him.
"Let help you."
There was no chance for Ery to reject, as she quickly moved behind him.
As she took off his clothes piece by piece, Ery could feel her nimble fingers moving around his shoulders.
One by one, his clothing was piled on the nearby rock, exposing his sturdy body to the open air. Klea stared and traced her fingers playfully on his chest, feeling the smooth and rock hard muscles.
Afterwards, Klea slowly whispered.
"I want you…? I have decided you will be my first ti, Ery…"
Her words certainly made him turn around and look at her in surprise. But, his tongue remained heavy. There was nothing he could say to her.
But, one thing was clear. At this mont, Ery's heart was beating so fast it felt like it could leap from his chest at any mont.
To show how serious she was, Klea pushed her body towards his, her skin and breasts freely touching his bare chest. Ery could feel the smooth, soft skin against him. Pf course, that was enough to ignite the flas of desire within him.
With his thoughts almost all focused on her, the spark was imdiate, his embers of desire for her evident from the tent forming on his pants.
She closed her eyes, as Ery wrapped his arms around her in an affectionate embrace. Their lips t. It was like a mont of deep connection had ford between them. Her lips felt soft, and her scent was reminiscent of spices.
In that mont, a pure, true connection has ford between them. It was the beginning of a new, deeper bond.
Ery's kiss was passionate, all the months of unreleased desire evident in the dance of his tongue. Surprisingly, Klea was able to keep up with him, as she returned the kiss and explored his taste too.
He descended down, kissing and marking down her neck and sucking at her sensitive spot. His efforts were rewarded when Klea let out a whimper of pleasure.
That whimper was music to his ears, but instead of letting himself be consud, Ery ca to his tenses and slowed down his ministrations.
The tow eyes stare each other so closely, Klea in such confusion
"No... No… Why… why…?" Klea asked, her desire for Ery to continue clear in her pleading gaze.
Ery took a deep breath and decided to hold the girl tightly and said… "I am sorry Klea... I am sorry… I can't… not now… not like this."
"Was it that princess Gwen? Are you still thinking about her…?"
Ery quickly rejected that notion. "No. No, I dont… I don't know…"
"Was it the girl Morgana then…?"
"No… It's not… I just thought this, right now… doesn't feel right…"
Ery can see Klea was so hard not to push Ery this matter. However, as much as he wished to have a relationship with her, his heart was too conflicted with too many different matters right now. The fate of his planet and of those close to him depended on him, it was too much toeven properly think about forming romantic relationships.
Klea, who was usually calm, was trying so hard to control her expression as she asked.
"Tell what do you feel about ?" She said, her tone serious.
On one hand, Ery was able to look deep into his heart, deep enough to confidently claim the girl standing in front of him was the most beautiful one he had ever seen. He liked her and would be lucky to spend the rest of his life with her.
But, Ery knew his heart was still torn and conflicted. The girl in front of him deserved the whole of him, everything his heart could give her.
Such a magnificent girl did not deserve the current him.
Before Ery was about to say his reason, Klea's gaze and her question reminded him of Morgana last year just before she ran away from the forbidden forest.
Ery blad himself all the while for being unable to stop her and leading to her being in such a state.
It would be best for the both of them to be as honest to each other as possible.
Hence, the word Ery chose to answer her question was.
"Klea… at the mont my heart is too conflicted, I cannot be more than a good friend to you..."
The words shook her to the core.
Ery continued and said, "For now, we really should focus on our training and not let anything else distract us… This way… will be the best for both of us".
It was probably the hardest decision he has ever made in his life thus far, but it had to be done.
The confident girl who stood next to him was trying so hard to not look distressed, but Ery could see the tears forming in the corner of her eyes. It was clear, she was shaken by the words.
She turned around, walked out of the lake and suddenly her clothes ca flying covering her up.
Once again she turned around and looked at Ery with a serious gaze.
"I heard your princess girl decided to choose her kingdom over you..." she continued with a more emotional gaze. "My kingdom is a dozen tis bigger than hers, but I choose to let it go... for you…"
Ery could see a drop of tear fall into her cheek, leaving a trail of wet tears. The once proud queen, the woman who would never flinch away from any challenge, had to look away as she admitted her loss.
"You're probably right, Ery... this is not the ti… and yes I can understand… Right now, I should be rational and focus on my training..."
Before saying her next words, she stared at him, her eyes as resolute as she could despite her trying to hold back the torrent of tears that threatened to fall at any mont. "But… I am telling you now, Ery… I am the best life partner you will ever et and one day you will regret the decision you made this day."
After she spoke suddenly the echo of thunder filled out the clear blue sky. A bird with feathers covered with lightning descended down. It looked similar to a massive eagle, its curved beak and sharp eyes reminiscent of a predator.
Klea jumped on top of it, gazed at him with a mix of anger and heartbreak, before she said.
"I will not bother you, then. I hope you have a good training and that the girl will awaken soon… goodbye, Ery"
Klea didn't give him a chance to say a word before she left. He watched her fly up into a tiny dot in the horizon with a heavy heart.
He had made a terrible mistake, but Ery bolstered his resolve.. He knew it was for the best.
