Chapter Twenty

Enre

So, my beautiful goddess has powers. Seeing Terra's face when she burnt me, hurt worse than the burn itself. But I would be lying if I said it didn't scare the hell out of me when it happened. I wasn't scared just for me, though, I was scared for her as well. She was as hot as the sun when I touched her and scalded my hand. I was worried that it was hurting her somehow, but it wasn't, to my relief. I know she was in pain during the ritual. That was evident by her guttural screaming. I wanted to go to her so badly, to help her, but there was nothing I could do without hurting her worse. The Haruspex really did come through with the pendants; I would have never had thought of that. If it wasn't for Crios and Dazna, I don't know what we would have done.

I can not start to understand what she is feeling right now, scared hurt, angry. I just hold her without saying a word. When she is ready, she will tell me. I do look over to Thegan and ask him “Would you care to go fix us some drinks brother?" He nods his head and takes off towards the kitchen.

After he is gone, I hear a faint voice asking me "How is your hand?" After all of this, she is still worried about me.

"My hand is fine My lady. How are you doing?" I ask her. Knowing this is hard on her.

"Um... I have had better days" she says with a snicker. A curious creature that she is. Then she adds "Do you think if I can learn to control these powers that I could be of some help with all of this." Waving her hands around the room. I know what she is referring to. She means the saving of Aelmere. She has been a part of this the whole time, she just doesn't realize it I guess.

"You have been helping since you first came into my life. Your powers are just a bonus," she smiled at me and squeezed my hand. She just needed some reassurance. Thegan came back with the drinks, and we thanked him.

So how is our little Goddess feeling?" He asked her. I am sure all of this has come as a shock to him as well. He is just hiding it.

"I am alright now. I do need another shower, though." She giggled motioning to her sticky hair. I go to stand up with her, and she put her hand on my chest. "I will manage on my own this time." Another little laugh escaped her lips.

"Are you sure? Is your leg alright?" I ask her with a concerned tone. I don't want her overdoing it.

"My leg is fine, all healed up. I will be ok. If I need you, I will holler ok." She said, leaning down to kiss me on the cheek. As she walks away, tiny pink and blue flowers pop up where she has stepped.
