Mystic Angels Ch. 02

I was laying in bed, enjoying the crisp smell of the morning, when I saw a flashing light outside. I leapt up to investigate and saw the source was a figure standing near the lake.

As I stared down, I found myself smiling. Dark red eyes met mine and seemed to penetrate my body, leaving me breathless. The mysterious figure vanished just as quickly as he had come. I stared for a while, even though there was no sign that anyone had been there.

There was a knock at my door. Before I could respond, my little sister came in my room. "Are you alright?" she asked. "I heard you crash out of bed like a wounded bear."

I smiled softly and said, "I'm not sure."

"What's wrong?" she replied.

I hesitated to tell her, but then decided it was too much for me to contain. "I thought I saw someone standing down there near the lily pond, but they just vanished."

"Maybe it was the Ghost of the Waters," she said.

I laughed. "That's not even real. Come on, be serious."

"I am serious. I'm not a child. I'm only one year younger than you. Plus I'm a girl, so I'm smarter than you."

"Maybe on occasion you can be."

She smiled smugly. "Don't you forget it. Just so you know, I was only teasing you." She paused. "It would be so wild if the Ghost of the Waters was really real..."

"I suppose so, but that's only a story meant to scare children." I sighed. "I can't believe that soon I will be gifted by our ancestors."

"I know it seems strange. It felt the same when I was given my gift last year."

In our family when we where gifted by our ancestors the girl, if there was one, was always gifted first, it had been this way since our family was first here, no one knows why it is this way it just is. Lily's gift also gave her a star and moon symbol on her forehead, it was dark blue. She had two dark blue strands in her hair, one on either side because of her gift as well.

"I remember how much you where stressing and looking forward to it all at the same time."

"I was so nervous. I bet I drove everyone crazy, didn't I?"

I laughed and said, "Indeed you did, little sister." I glanced out the window again. For some reason, I was unable to forget what had happened that morning. I was becoming less and less certain it was even real and not a dream.

Lily knew what I was thinking and grabbed my arm. "Come on, big brother. Let's investigate."

Side by side, we scanned the snow for any sign at all. "What did it even look like?" Lily asked.

"I couldn't really see properly to be honest, Lily."

"Well, try to tell me."

I stood and closed my eyes. "I saw a white and red robe that covered them from head to toe. I did saw their eyes...those piercing eyes." Even remembering them gave me chills.

"Alright, try to remember more."

"I saw some hair"

"Long or short?" she said.

"It was long. A bit past the collarbone and it was a black with two purple stripes in the fringe" I replied.

She nodded and then said, "Show me where this person was standing."

I did so and stepped back as my sister started to chant softly. Lily's gift involved significant places, meaning that by standing in the same spot as this mysterious person, she would be able to learn a bit more about them.

It seemed to be taking longer than usual, but then suddenly her eyes turned black and she inhaled sharply. "I can see."

I nodded and waited, but she didn't elaborate. "What do you see?" I was beginning to feel an almost desperate desire to know who it was that had stood there.

"This man...wants to help you." After than she, stumbled forward, the magic in her eyes broke and she once again looked like my sister.

"That was all?"

She nodded. "I don't know why I only got so little."

"You look sick." I held her arm and she rested part of her weight on me.

I led her back to the castle, searching for our mother. However, she seemed to be regaining her strength. Our mother was in the throne room with an advisor. When she saw us, she sent the squat man away and asked, "How are you this morning, dear children?"

We were both able to honestly reply, "We are well."

She smiled. "I'm glad you are both here. Your father wishes to bring his friend the duke here."

I nodded. "That would be good."

"Is his son coming too?" Lily blurted.

"I am not sure. He didn't say anything about it in his message."

I was about to tease my sister, but Mother interrupted. "We are going to have a formal dinner, so I will need your help to get hall ready in time. Lily will design the table. Aquila, you will decorate."

An hour later, I stepped down from a stool and stood back to inspect the golden drapery I had carefully been hanging. My mother appeared at my side and complimented me. "You do have an eye for this."

"Thank you."

"Are you alright? You seem out of sorts."

"Just a little headache."

It seemed to me that my mother knew there was more to it than that, but thankfully she didn't ask. "Go rest."

I dreamt I was in a garden of all black roses. I felt a pair of strong and firm hands pressed against my chest and a man's voice whispered into my ear "What is your choice, lovely?"

"What do you mean?"

"Do you want to be mine forever?"

His lips were so close to mine that it felt like my breath was being drawn away as I whispered, "F-forever."

"I too want you forever." He pulled me to the ground. I couldn't see his face. He was dressed in fine silk trousers and his chest was bare. His hard muscles covered in dark fur with two pink-brown nipples pointing out of it. He smiled as he saw me looking. "You are beautiful." He kissed down my body, licking and biting. It felt so good. He pulled at my silk trousers, looking up at me in a wordless request. I nodded and he pulled them away, freeing my straining erection. I gasped as he engulfed me in his mouth. He sucked hard and fast. I moaned and writhed under him.

A wet finger pressed against my entrance and he slowly pushed inside me, making me moan more. He pushed his finger in and out of me a few times and then twisted, hitting something inside me I hadn't known about. "Never stop!" I pleaded.

He moaned as he sucked me hard and continued to press against the pleasure spot. I didn't last long before I came. I moaned as I erupted into his mouth and he swallowed hungrily.

He rose to his knees, pumping his cock in his hand. A few seconds later he moaned and shot his warm juice all over me, from chin to stomach. The man sighed and collapsed next to me. He was about to speak and then he vanished.

"No," I groaned softly. "No." I didn't want to open my eyes and find myself back in my bed. I wanted to be in the garden again.
