Chapter 22: Talk of Hearts 18+
Sunny''s Fate has been Shattered at the end of his 3rd Nightmare and since then the rest of himself followed. His Mind, his Soul and even his Body had Been put under extreme Stress since.
That was not a result of his Fate being toyed with with the Talons of a Vile, Thieving Bird.
But of other circumstances that all found their origin in that specific incident. Since then he had been toying with the idea to just end it all. With one swift strike of his sword he could end his Suffering and put himself to rest.
Seemingly nothing was stopping the man from doing so and many others would have taken the easy way out years ago. But he was different.
Sunnys way of life was not like any other human being out there. He had a goal that seemed So shallow and Mundane that in hindsight it seemed laughable and easy to achieve.
Living A truly peaceful life.
A life where Noone would disturb his Peace. A life where the smile on his lips would not have been fake for even a second.
A life he could enjoy all throughout.
For normal people that life was easy Enough to be achieved. But for him it was utterly impossible.
For some reason the world has ruled for him to suffer and that meant that he needed Power to Achieve his Dream. The only problem With power is that the more you have of it, the more you need to fight the next dire Challenge that stands between you and your Dream no matter how simple it is.
And that left wounds on him he could not simply patch with a Band Aid. Not even Nephis Flames had the power to heal those wounds in an Instant like every other wound she had healed.
No, for this specific kind of injury nothing but time and Peace could even hope to heal it. Even then the Scars they would leave behind would never fully fade away. Always reminding him of the Pain he once went through.
His mind had been damaged beyond repair years ago. Now the only thing holding it together were the short moments he shared with the people he loved.
And Nephis was one of those special kinds of people.
When he was with her the Madness dimmed away and the constant subtle headache had no chance of plaguing him any longer.
She was his safe haven and he was hers.
Together they were the only ones to shine light onto the dark path that lay in front of them.
Those moments when they were together and just by themselves were the biggest treasure in the world to them. No amount of Money, human lifes or even the promise to instantly achieve their goals would they trade for one another since achieving their Goals would be worthless if the other person was not with them to cherish the Moment to its full extent.
Sunny's mind that was constantly falling Into the lightless abyss of madness was constantly catched and brought back up when the Image of Nephis appeared in his Mind.
She was like an Anchor for him or a Safety Rope he could rely on to keep him safe in a world that was trying to break him with all its sinister might.
Nothing in 2 worlds was more important to him than his Changing Star.
And nothing was more to her than her former Lost from Light. Now Broken Abyss for a reason neither her nor Sunny really understood.
His new true name came in an Instant with the loss of his old one. He never figured out what it truly meant and to be honest, he didn't care much.
At least it wasn't something ridiculous like 'Not so funny anymore'. That would have been a disaster. After all he had to use his true name to keep him from losing himself in the Depths of Shadow Dance constantly.
But now was not the Time to think About such things. Because now was the Time to rest and give his Mind some pause.
Well at least from the Pain and stress since his mind still had to deal with the Magnificent Sight of Nephis naked Buddy in front of his own and the pleasure that came with such situations.
Her smile, that forced him to give her one of his own. Or the lovely words she whispered into his ear at every possible situation.
Her moans as a direct response to his doings tickled his Soul and threatened to engulf it with a warm and brilliant light where normally nothing but deep shadows dwelled. And he greeted that light with a warm embrace and swore to protect and cherish those moments till the end of time.
He Loved those moments more than anything and so did she.
Their Body's worked perfectly together although that was not a Given at the beginning. Their first attempts to make love were rather embarrassing and uncoordinated like they had started to learn a new Language.
But It didn't matter because the Learning curve that had Been a half hearted throw of a Ball at first soon excelled and shot now towards the Sky like a Rocket.
Their Hearts beat faster than they had ever, and they felt things they had never felt before.
It was intoxicating to both of them. Like they had no other interest In doing anything else ever again.
Sunny was no average man by any means. Not when It came to his height, his wealth or his Strength. But one specific part of his body seemed to exceed The expectations of Nephis in every regard.
Feeling him thrusting his Dick inside her Nephis was now The one in desperate need to keep a hold of Herself, but instead of using her own True Name she screamed the name of her lover instead.
Some Might think that it would grow old or even annoying at one point but every time she did So it sent shivers of joy through his entire body as the excitement and pleasure he was giving her sounded like Music in his ears.
'A song I could listen to all the time.'
He thought while barely managing to not completely lose himself in the Divine feeling that Nephis overwhelmed him with.
He leaned down to her and whispered Into her ear while continuing To give her the care she deserved.
"You are the most Beautiful Star in every world you know that."
Nephis couldn't believe her Ears.
'That man is impossible.'
A small chuckle managed to escape Her lips between moans while she thought of a suitable answer.
"You know you don't have to Flatter me. You are already Balls deep inside of me, Mister."
Sunny did not give her the response she expected but it made her love for him bloom no less Stronger.
He chuckled and Shrugged while stating his Answer between heavy breaths.
"That wasn't to flatter you, it's just A Fact that I think you forget about you sometimes."
He said quite amused as he saw Nephis face getting redder than it already was.
She had no way to hide her Embarrassment and if she was truly honest with herself, she didn't want to. In the end she knew that she could trust sunny with everything. That he would never hurt her on purpose. And that she could be vulnerable in front of him since he would not abuse her weaknesses in any way.
That kind of trust was something she had with no other person, ever. Not with Cassie, not with any other member of her Cohort. Not even her own family which she missed dearly but found suitable replacement in the form of the Man that was driving her Crazy in a way she loved.
The Fact that she didn't need to hide anything from Him did not stop her pulling him down towards her into a deep and Passionate Kiss though.
While crossing her legs behind his hips she pulled him closer in an effort to feel more of him. Although she was already at her limit in that department.
Her arms moved behind His neck and pulled him closer until their bodys were flush against each other.
Her tongue met his as their Saliva Mixed and they both refused to stop to gasp for Air. Silently their lips brushed against each other While Sunny's hands found her hair again to take in more of Nephis Body to feed his desperate hunger that he had for her.
The groans and subtle Moans that he could not hold in and had no reason to so anyway reminded her of the fact that he too was just A human.
That Fact sometimes seemed easy to forget as Sunny accomplished one impossible feat After another making him look like a God like creature in her eyes for more reasons than the Great Sex.
Her dreams had come true and now it was in her hand to keep that dream alive while trying desperately to achieve her Goals. While at the end of it all she could see a future with Sunny that broke the Facade of the Elusive Changing Star, she was holding up in front of others, every time she thought about it and painted a permanent grin on her Face.
'How would our kids look like?'
She thought while in the embrace of the man she hoped to have such a beautiful future with.
'Beautiful, that's for sure.'
Their Body's shivered once more as both their minds felt blank for a second and they could only see stars as they came together for only the dead Gods would know how Many times now.
Nephis had toyed with the idea of asking sunny to leave the Shadow Condom and just let nature find its way but she knew that this was irresponsible. A war was approaching and other than Effie she had no interest in birthing a Child in the middle of a Battlefield.
Although the idea seemed more and more intriguing as Sunny removed His mouth from hers and traced further Down her body leaving hickeys at her neck before reaching her Breast.
Not even the post nut clarity could pry away the thoughts of leaving it all behind to live a peaceful life far away from anyone and anything with him by her Side.
'Sadly Life isn't that easy for the both of us.'
She thought bitterly. Unknowingly to her the sadness that assaulted her mind while thinking at the frustrating situation they found themselves in made her smile falter a little.
Luckily for her, Sunny was in no position to see that subtle change In her facial Features but something else tipped him off inested, and soon he rose from her chest and looked at her striking Grey eyes with his usual calm Impression.
"Your heart is telling me that something Is wrong. Would you mind telling me what it is?"
He asked gently while bringing a hand to her chin and rubbing his thumb along her jawline. Nephis eyes widened subtly in response as she found herself in a tough situation.
She didn't want to lie to him since she knew that he wasn't even able to do so himself. Not even for small Things like stealing her favorite snack from the Pantry or acting like he didn't fart next to her as they laid on the couch without a care in the world for anything else than themselves.
'There is nothing I can hide from him anyways. He knows me too well. Even after losing his Memories, he is able to read me like an open book.'
Not that she would complain about it but in situations like that she wished he was more like a normal boyfriend. One that would forget things easily and brush it off like it wasn't a big deal.
So in the end she decided to be honest about It even though it would seem like she was stepping a bit overboard with her thoughts. Only from his perspective of course but that made her no less worry about how he would react.
"I…I…Sunny?"
Her soft voice demanded his attention even more so he stopped thrusting his hips for a moment since he suspected that was what she wanted from him. And he was right.
Taking a Deep breath Nephis enjoyed the short break as his Cock slid out of her now laying on top of her Stomach in its full Glory.
She thought about throwing away her plans of telling him what pained her mind when she saw his exposed self so openly displayed in front of her but she knew that this too was irresponsible so she controlled herself.
"To Be honest With you, like I wish to be, since it's only fair… I have been thinking about how our situation is so immensely frustrating. All I want is to leave it all behind and live far away from all the Pain and just have a loving family with you."
She couldn't meet his Gaze as her cheeks flushed dangerously red for the second time today. She waited patiently for his answer while subtly glancing at his face in order to figure out what was going on in his head right now.
A dangerous and foolish plan since Sunny's mind was no place for anyone else to get a glimpse at. Cassie had trouble implementing the Mental connection with him and had trouble keeping it up whenever she used her Transcendent Ability to connect her mind with his.
The silence In the Room was slowly growing more awkward as Nephis feared she had destroyed the beautiful moment for both of them.
Sunny's expression remained even with the subtle smile that he subconsciously held whenever interacting with her.
"I want that too."
Is all he said and all he needed to say. Nephis finally let go of a breath she didn't realize she held while waiting for his Answer. The nervous expression she wore instantly transformed onto a smile as her eyes full of love widened subtly.
"That's…great."
She mumbled under her breath as she wished for nothing more than for Sunny to dismiss the layer of Shadows around his Cock and make their wish come true. But she knew that he couldn't.
They couldn't.
"I guess we are both trapped in this endless cycle of Pain and Sorrow until we find a way to put an end to it."
She said now more clearly as his eyes continued to stare her down like a hungry predator. A stare she knew all too well from him but knew that there was no harmful intent when it was directed at her.
They were Both frozen at this moment as time seemed irrelevant. Their Breaths now more steady and their hearts at ease they were ready to change that by diving back into their own world full of pleasure and lust as the ringing of the Doorbell ripped them out of their thoughts.
