Amara – Reunion

Author's note: this is from Seraphina's point of view

- - -

My mind was spinning as I gasped for air.

The pressure in my core increased with every move of Liatris's fingers. She knew what she was doing.

The electric sparks started shooting through my body as the pleasure crashed over me in waves.

'THUMP'

Liatris's fingers stopped moving and she plopped on the bed next to me.

Are you kidding me? I growled in protest. I was almost there! Why did she stop?

'SLAP!'

My left cheek stung fiercely, and I blinked to see who dared to hit me. Liatris is on the bed next to me... or is she?

"Wake up, Serina!"

It was Treva. What is she doing here? What about Liatris?

I blinked a few times and spotted Liatris lying on the bed next to me, unconscious.

I realized that my dress is a mess, and I quickly pushed it down, to make myself presentable.

My panties were moved to the side, exposing me completely and my whole body jolted when I pulled them back into place. I was sensitive and wet.

"What's going on?", I asked Treva weakly while the heat in my cheeks told me I'm about to die from embarrassment.

Did I just have a steamy make-out session with a harpy? And Treva walked in on us!

"Are you yourself?", Treva asked, and I nodded in response.

Treva nervously glanced at the door, and spoke in a low voice, "Archousa has no intention to allow you leave. Their plan was to show you a good time and tie you up with pleasures of the flesh because you didn't respond to anything else they offered previously."

I cleared my throat awkwardly. "How can they tie me with that?"

"The incense is addictive. Your father is due to come in a few days to take you, and they were desperate to come up with a solution to keep you." She looked at me guiltily. "I'm sorry, Serina. I knew they want to keep you here, but I didn't know they will go this far."

I didn't care about her apology, because there was another concerning point. "They would go against my father?"

Treva rolled her white eyes at me. "He can't take you if you don't want to leave. If you stayed on that incense for a few hours, you would give anything for another whiff and another orgasm. As much as I would love to explain to you all the details, we are running out of time, and you need to decide quickly... Do you want to leave this place?"

I paused. Do I want to leave?

I wanted to say that incense was not a big deal, but then I saw unconscious Liatris next to me. Yup. I would go all the way and probably ask for more. Treva saved me.

Orgasms don't sound bad and they tried to drug me only because they wanted to keep me here. If I stay, they will treat me with sincerity. Maybe.

After so much time here, I learned to appreciate the simplicity of their life. There are no werewolves, vampires, problems… The luxury and buzz in the human realm is not something I'm craving for, and guys trying to seduce me are giving me a headache. Actually, staying here would be an easy decision.

Treva scrutinized me. "Did I come on time or did they manage to sway you? Do you want to leave or not?"

I smiled. As much as the simple life of harpies is attractive, Aldus is outside. Staying here and avoiding problems would be disrespectful and I can't do that to the man who is my father.

"I'm OK.", I assured her. "I want to leave."

Treva relaxed. "I looked for you at the feast and when I didn't find you, I got worried. Luckily, I found you here."

I was grateful, but I wouldn't mind if she came two minutes later. The throbbing discomfort in my core reminded me that I was almost there, and I didn't get a release.

I told myself to focus. I am in trouble and with what Treva did, she was in trouble as well.

"Why are you taking a risk for me?", I asked.

Treva smiled a little. "Because we are friends."

I looked at the silly girl in front of me. She was really moved by my words.

"Pack your things quickly!"

Treva's words pulled me out of my stupor, and she explained while waving at me to hurry, "I assume that they will not disturb you for some time because they think you are busy with your companion. I will take you to the portal. I don't have permission to use the portal, but I watched others activate it many times, so I can start it for you…"

I swiftly grabbed a few of my belongings and stuffed them in my backpack.

Less than three minutes later, I followed Treva through the winding tunnels.

Was she taking me to safety or into a trap? I was not sure but I believed her words that Mivian and Lumiona were plotting to keep me here and I knew that if I stay behind I would end up trapped.

"Why do you think that Mivian and Lumiona want to keep me here?", I asked Treva in a whisper.

She snorted. "Are you kidding me? The two of them are power-hungry. After your display in the lake, they saw you as a tool to be used for harpies to return to their glory."

"I am not that powerful.", I mumbled.

"You don't understand…", Treva sighed. "Most of us can barely sweep dust with winds before getting our wings, yet you created a huge whirlpool and the whole lake raged under the pressure of your winds. And during all that, you were flying. They probably thought that your children will have powers as well, so they would arrange for you to copulate with an appropriate candidate…"

I shivered at Treva's words and I wished that she speeds up her steps.

After an unknown measure of time, we reached a familiar spot. This is where I met Treva, when she was assigned as my guide.

Treva rearranged some rocks that were on the ground.

"When you pass through, you will see a guard on the other side.", Treva said. "Act confidently like Archousa or Manteio approved for you to leave, and don't let her stop you."

"Will you be OK? Come with me. I will arrange for you a place to stay, and you will have entertainment and as much tasty food as your belly can handle."

Treva shook her head, rejecting my offer. "I can't leave. This is my home. Even if they know that it was me, I will survive the punishment. Don't worry about me. Go."

I lot out a long exhale. "I hope that you will come and visit me when you get a chance. I'm staying in Genoa. That's in Italy. If you fly high and look from above, the land is shaped like a boot. Look for the property of the Mezzanotte family and ask for Seraphina."

Treva's eyes lit up. "Alright."

I remembered… "Take this." I pushed two granola bars into her hand, and I gave her a hug. "Thank you for everything. My stay here was pleasant because of you. No matter what happened, I am happy that I made a friend."

"Go before they find out you are missing…", Treva urged me in a shaky voice, and I wondered if she was crying.

"Bye, Treva…", I said, and I stepped through the portal.

…

I stood on the balcony of Aldus's villa in Crete and made a phone call.

"Yes?", a familiar deep voice answered.

"Father, I'm back."

"Mmm…", Aldus hummed, and I could imagine him smiling. "How was your stay at the Lost Isles?"

"Huh. I have a lot of stories to tell."

"Do you want to stay there for some time and relax?"

I groaned. "I had enough of adventures, and I can't wait to get home. I look forward to focusing on alchemy and training with my abilities. You know, the quiet life." 

Aldus chuckled. "Alright. I'm sending Mitch to get you. He will be there in four hours. I'm sure you will love how the new sunroom turned out…"

My cheeks hurt from smiling. I was going home.
