Chương 24: You Have Enchanted An Enchanter

Celestia's POV:

I rested my head on Theo's lap. He gently stroked my hair and comforted me. With him by my side, all my sorrows felt very light. I had immense faith that I can overcome any challenges that come my way.

It was almost midnight by then. The forest of light was still bright because of the full moon in the sky. I always adored the full moon. It was such a beautiful sight in the starry sky.

But Theo wasn't watching the moon. He kept gazing at me curiously. I started to feel a bit uncomfortable by his gaze. Why is he staring at me instead of admiring the full moon and the stars?

Theo smiled after listening to my thoughts. I never noticed before that he gets dimples when he smiles. Perhaps that is what makes him more attractive.

"My love, why would I have to adore the moon when you are right in front of me? You are prettier than a thousand moons combined," Theo commented.

I started to blush. I have never been praised for my beauty before. Everyone saw me as a warrior, and some even worshipped me as a goddess. Theo is the only one who treated me like a girl.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I can't recall when I fell asleep. The last thing I remember is staring at his green eyes. Now I was lying down on the grass. Where is Theo?

At a distance, I was able to hear his voice. I got up from the ground and walked in that direction. Theo was speaking to a gorgeous girl with raven black hair. I remember her. She was one of the Siren girls who played the harp on that day.

It seemed to me like they both were arguing about something. I decided not to step into their conversation.

"Theo, leave that girl here. That is the best for every one of us," the raven-haired girl said.

I disliked the girl more and more as seconds passed by. Why is she trying to break away Theo from me?

"Ivory, she is my lover now. I have to bring her to the Selene Kingdom."

The raven-haired girl was glaring at Theo. " Queen Cynthia will never allow a Fae to enter her kingdom."

Theo shook his head. " Celestia is more important to me than anything else. If Queen Cynthia disagrees with me, then I will not hesitate to leave the kingdom."

Ivory's jaw dropped in horror. She then clutched his hand and said, " You know that she can never love you the way I do. I am perfect for you. Why do you even need her?"

I could feel my heart breaking into thousand pieces. So what my father said was true. He has Siren lady lovers! I started walking away from that place. Why did he pursue me if he already had a lover?

I can't stay here anymore. The raven-haired girl said that the Siren Queen disapproves of me. It seems like all the Sirens are against me.

Suddenly I knocked over a rock, and I was about to fall. But a strong pair of arms caught my waist. It was Theo! I immediately pulled away from him. I don't want his hands on me.

"My love, you misunderstood everything. You are my only lady love," Theo said.

"What about that Raven-haired Seductress?" I raised a question. " Is she your lover too?"

Theo just smiled at my question as usual. " She was my lady love, but not anymore."

I didn't expect this answer. It's no wonder why Ivory acts as if she owns Theo because she did own him.

" My Sweetness, don't be jealous of Ivory. Because she was not my only lady love. I had a lot of lovers from all three realms."

Oh my God! He is an Incubus! Why didn't I listen to my father? I made a huge mistake. I wasn't able to breathe normally, but Theo was grinning at me as usual.

He placed his hands on my arms and stared down at me. " Celestia, my love. I am not an Incubus! I just had too many lady companions. And I have never loved anyone the way I love you right now."

That was very hard for me to believe. I feel like I am just another girl to him. Theo is just saying that he loves me to comfort me.

" No, my love. All those girls didn't conquer my heart the way you did. Ever since I laid my eyes on you, I have not been able to stop thinking about you. You are not just my lover. You are the Queen of my heart."

My eyes lit up after hearing his justification. " So you think about me all the time? Just like I did?"

Theo nodded. " I have never desired any girl before. I am even ready to sacrifice my life for you. What have you done to me, Celestia? Usually, I am the one who seduces. For the first time in my life, I am tempted by you. You have enchanted an enchanter like me with your alluring beauty!"

I was so relieved to know that he feels the same way about me. " You have enchanted me too with your mesmerizing sea-green eyes," I responded.

Theo's lips were about to touch mine. But Ivory interrupted our moment. I immediately stepped away from him when I saw her.

" We have to leave now. Queen Cynthia is waiting for us," Ivory announced.

She then glared at me with her piercing hazel eyes. As much as she looked pretty, she also seemed intimidating. Just by her stare, I was able to understand that she despised me. I have a feeling that she will slay me one day!

" Don't worry, my love," Theo said after reading my thoughts. " As long as I am by your side, no one can hurt you."

Ivory smirked at me. " And as much as I hate you, I will not harm you. Because Theo loves you, and I am obligated not to slay you."

From now on, I should start monitoring my thoughts! I can't think of anything freely when I am with the Sirens.
