《Suffocate My love》Chapter 22
Advertisement
As he moved, he could see the duplicate HanZi clothing admist the darkness. Instictively he moved his free hand towards the one being pulled. He outstretched his palm and he brushed from his wrist to halfway his forearm, and with that the glowing started to slowly die down and as such his velocity decelerated making his running transform to walking.
He still hovered on the air but he took steps casually.The glowing under his shoe didn't cease to exist.Its just that this time it was like he was going down a fleet of stairs and with every step he even got closer to the earth.
While all this happened his focus wasn't on the events but rather on the barely glowing HanZi that was in the middle of the trees.
He finally took the last step off the invisible bridge and he was on ground.
He moved forward and his footsteps became heavy like he was pulling then off of mud.And as such he clenched his porcelain fists amicably. Step by step he walked and breath by breath the night wind blew even more distinctively .Some of the leaves were even elevated off the ground. There was like a curtain of trees between him and his destination but he nonetheless felt like the distance was very enormous.
He reached the tree curtain and he placed his hand outwards and the HanZi pulsated.He did this to check if indeed the HanZi do match. But that was needless. Only the writer of the HanZi can see it so him seeing the HanZi behind the tree curtain means that it's his.Also the mechanism of the magnet-bond spell are never wrong.As long as the spell was done as per need be , the desired results are guaranteed.If he embeed the right person in the HanZi then that's who the duplicate HanZi will find.
However when one brushes their hand over a magnetic-bond HanZi, they turn it off until they elevate their hand again!!
The second he elevated his hand, the HanZi glowed yes but it glowed even more within a split second.Before he could comprehend what was going on, the bond was formed and it dragged him out of the shadows towards the HanZi that was hoovering over an unconsciois body.Its undeniable that he was surprised to see a body but the shock died down because he saw the chest rising slowly
He was just three feet away but he managed to disactive the HanZi before he fell onto the body.
He exhaled heavily as he realised that he almost exposed himself..He bent over and placed his hands on his knees then huffed for air.If he is not wrong, his hair must be blindingly white and whoever witnessed this would not blame him

He rose his body and placed his hand over his heart.He exhaled once more at the near disaster that almost happened.He chuckled at himself and held his forehead and he proceeded to walk towards the body that laid there.
He unautonomously knelt down on the left side whilst still hanging onto the idea that he almost feel face flat onto him.Adrian let go of his fore head and he sat on his folded legs or more precisely on his heels.He then went on to rest both his palms on his thighs
He looked at Reed s unconscious face.Aside from the glowing HanZi that loomed over Reed like a beacon, the only source of light was the moon.
Reed s hair had concealed almost half his eyes as all of his temple.He had been in this position for too long that he must be sore and partly numb.He does look battered but that's the effect of having something blow up on him. He is lucky to be intact after withstanding that.But there is a chance that, his internal organs are the ones that got damaged because of their sensitivity.
As Adrian knelt there , his comedic emotional aftermath was replaced by a veritable solace.He smiled as he saw the ever-serious stone pillar of the palace sleeping like a baby.He looked so soft like a cotton or a gemstone.He must have a beautiful pair of eyebrows underneath the hair.Of course he had seen Reed s face so many times but he can't help like him better when he is sleeping.He looks so fragile and worryless, honestly who wouldn't adore such a view of vulnerability.
The wind blew once and dropped a few more leaves and petals onto Reed's face.It misbehaved once more by cajoling Adrian s snow hair.
As he saw this, he immediately picked off the leaves and all the while he didn't touch his skin. There was no reason to avoid his skin but it felt improper to touch the skin of an unconscious person
He picked off the leaves one by one.He took his time as he did that and the beautiful part was the wind continued to blow but it didn't deposit any leaves onto Reed s face.All the entire time, Adrian as he picked off the dirt from Reed's face.He smiled like a mother cleaning it's child.He knows that had Reed been awake right now, the look on his face would be worth more than all of Saturn's rings and the manuscripts of cultivation to immortality level.
He knows that Reed would have said something or done something that would burnt or engraved its self on the marbleheart that Adrian cages in his chest.

But all of that would have only been possible if Reed knew that this is white haired young person is the king that he would have sold pearls and the stars for.That he is the very same person ,it's just he looks different but that shouldn't matter right?
Reed should care about the persona and not the outward appearance. Its true that when you care about someone, you appreciate their imperfections but what if they are not what who you thought they were
As this thoughts raced through his head,Adrian became very sentimental.Of course he wants to scream to Reed and telling to look at him and they would both yell in happiness but that is beyond naive to think that Reed would accept him.
Even if Reed does care about the persona,it doesn't mean he would accept Adrian with open arms.
So at this point Adrian doesn't know if he should tell him but he gets so nervtwhen he thinks about it because he is afraid that Reed would just walk away and what's more painful than someone with affection like Reed's for Adrian , to walk out of his life because of a thing like this.
He felt himself get emotional but he wasn't in the mood to get teary and breakdown.Reed would want him to be strong, right? If these are the last moments he is ever going to be with Reed then he better cherish them.
With that, his two fingers glowed red and he proceeded to draw a spell on the air and he ripped it off the air and threw it onto Reeds torso.The instant the spell touched Reed s garments, a ripple of red resonated over his entity body.
He proceeded to outstretch the palm of his hand with the magnet-bond HanZi and as he did that, the duplicate HanZi fell from the air like a petal.It swayed left and right in the blowing wind.Its hard to imagine that something so light could be so very strong.
Anyway, the HanZi eventually landed on his palm.He then took reached down and grabbed Reed s left forearm and he stuck on the HanZi onto his wrist.He laid the arm softly onto Reed's abdomen.
"This way, we will always find each other",he commented half-heartedly because a large part of him tells him that their time together is going to really short.
He then closed his eyes and a tear drop fell from his right eye and trickled down his face.A leaf brushed across his face and he quickly rushed to counteract it but as he did that, Reed raise his hand and it froze a few millemeters from Adrian s face.
Adrian was startled and he looked at Reed's hand and saw that the fingers were positioned like he was loosely holding a wide circumferenced sword.. But that position also looked like Reed was trying to wipe out Adrian s tear...
Adrian was taken aback..
"Even when asleep, you still care", he remarked and more tears fell down his eyes.He reached for the outstretched arm with both hands and went back to lay the hand on his abdomen once more
".. but I can't let you do that", he commented and proceeded repeat the motion from earlier by deactivating the spell
Of course he knows that the only reason that Reed would do that is because of the magnetic-bond. But heaven knows that's what Reed would have done and has always been doing.He would care and Adrian would refuse to let him.Even when circumstances didn't permit it, he still cared.
And this shows that Heaven is Reed s witness so much so that it has order fate to have Reed s affection persist on being expressed even he himself can't do anything..
Adrian then looked at the ground to the right next to him and he begun swirling his wrist . Successively the leaves gathered and seemed held together by a red streak of electricity.
He then stop up whilst still swirling his wrist.With his left hand he outstretched his palm and instantly Reed s body began to raise off the ground.The more Adrian raised his palm, so did Reed's body raise.He then frooze his hand midair.
Consecutively, he drgged his right hand and the swirl he had made was directed underneath Reed.The leaf ball then spread out and formed a bed and supported Reed's weight.All the while his left hand didn't move.
After the leaves dispersed ,he then used his right spell- casting fingers to make small circles in the air but as he did that, a red electric coil wound around Reed and looked him to the bed to petals.Like the claw, the moment the coil completed each revolution, the redness died down.
This way he is sure that Reed won't fall off the bed and as such Adrian turned and walked west.His Banbi tail danced in the air as well as his paper white hair.
Successively the floating bed floated behind him.
The wind blew with so many intensities tonight because the fated have ones again been reunited.Tonight marks the first day of the light years they are bound together and this time no distance can come between because of the bonds imbedded on their hands

The Blood Queen
The rain fell from the sky with ferocity and smashed into the pavement filling the air with the sound of a stampede. The noise was deafening as I struggled to stand up. The blood from my wound was covering the ground beneath me and I covered it with my hand as I pushed off the pavement. On my feet now I struggled to step towards the grass. Through the howling wind and pounding raindrops I could hear what sounded like a chant, calling me and drawing me towards the cliffs edge. "Vienna, my Queen, my blood Queen" I started to move my feet faster until I could run towards the edge. Only when I was at the edge did I turn and look back one last time at the castle behind me. I could see him standing on the balcony, he was screaming my name. I could just hear it over the rain. I unclipped my red cape and whispered goodbye to him. As he jumped off the balcony to run towards me I leaned backwards and let my body fall with the rushing water to the river far down below. I carried her whispers with me to the dark edge until they vanished.
