“Catch!” Nai shouts, chucking me an apple, and I catch it mid-air before taking a large bite. The apples aren’t like the ones from Onaya or from back home. They have a strange red colour to them, and they taste much sweeter than the apples I’m used to. Nai won’t tell me where they are from, and I just hope we don’t run out anytime soon. He comes and leans next to me as we watch the shimmering green sea in front of us. The weather is amazing today, the sun is shining down on us so brightly, and we are all enjoying the weather. Damien and Ty are sunbathing with no shirts on by the wheel of the ship, and I nearly tripped over thin air when I saw them there earlier. Two very sexy shirtless men should not be allowed in one place. There is only so much a woman can handle. Thank the gods Nai has kept his shirt on, or I’m going to lose my mind.

The men on this ship would tempt any woman. Even a queen.

“Funny how this is the place we first met. At least when you were awake,” Nai comments.

“I did stand here for a long time. You also told me you had a vision of me kissing you and calling you Nai,” I comment, remembering what he said to me as I eat my apple. I eventually eat all of it, leaving only the middle, and I drop it into the sea.

“I saw visions of you for years, but I never could see your face,” he admits, watching the sea. I admire how the sun shines down on his hair, making him looking younger for a moment.

“How old were you when you became the god of souls? Or were you born that way?”

“My mother was born on Seveten, and when I was ten, she passed away,” he softly tells me, and my heart aches for him. “We were both slaves, and without her there, I didn’t want to live there anymore. I ran to the sea, and there was my father, waiting for me. He told me the price for being a god and the rules but promised eternal freedom and so much power. I ran to him without looking back.”

“Thank you for telling me about your past,” I say, and he smiles at me, covering my hand with his. “I hope we can talk more about your life on Seveten some time. It can’t have been all bad, and I’ve never been to that island.”

“Why not?” he asks. “You’re the queen; you should have been to all the islands.”

“When this is all over,” I say, looking out at the sea, “we can travel. I want to see them all with you and my family.”

Nai opens his mouth to say something when a bird covered in water flies out of the sea and slams right into Nai’s chest, knocking him onto the deck. The water collapses on top of Nai, leaving
