Out of the World

24. Surprises in the skies

Zorion

“I have something for you,” I told her, trailing a way of kisses on the soft skin of her neck.

“Can’t it wait until I shower and change?” she asked, even though she angled her neck to the side, welcoming my kisses.

“Not this time. I am sure you want to see it before changing,” I replied between kisses. After a few more minutes of inhaling her sweet scent of cherry blossom and snow and tasting her skin, I succeeded in bringing myself to stop, “Come with me, I have a surprise for you.” I took her hand in mine, guiding her to the dressing-room attached to our bedroom.

“Here it is,” I told Nina and she looked confused, her gaze shifting between my face and her surprise.

“Is the surprise inside?” she asked, looking intently at the big light-wooden wardrobe.

“Yes and no, the surprise is the wardrobe itself,” I started to explain, taking a few steps closer to it.

“Oh, if I get inside this, I will end up in Narnia? Is it part of the Six Realms?” Nina asked between chuckles. What was she talking about? I’ve never heard of anyone using a wardrobe to open portals or teleport. It made no sense, why use an object when you could usually do it in thin air. And what and where was Narnia?

“Narnia? I don't know this place, is it in Spain?” I asked, furrowing my brows in confusion, which my beautiful mate seemed to find amusing. I didn’t care if she was laughing at me, all I wanted was to see her laughing. It was so rare when we first met and now it was happening more often every day.

“Narnia is a fantasy place from storybooks,” Nina explained. Her melodic chuckle made my lips tilt up in a smile, and unexpectedly she wrapped her arms around me and stepped on her tiptoes, moving her chin back to look at me, to look at my lips. She wanted the same as I did. Leaning down, I scooped my small female in my arms and covered her lips with mine, claiming every delicious inch of her mouth, caressing her tongue with mine.

As soon as she was out of air, I put her down slowly and led her closer to the wardrobe. “This won’t take you anywhere, but you can summon clothes from it. You just have to think about what you want or even draw it if you prefer, as you open the doors. They will be inside there. All in your size,” I explained and she looked at me with a shocked smile.

“Almost as good as Narnia but much more practical!” She chuckled and all I wanted to do was to kiss those smiling lips over and over. Yet, I knew I had to give her time to shower and get ready for tonight.

“I will be waiting for you to get ready and give you the real surprise,” I murmured these words in her ear, and felt the soft skin of her neck rise in goosebumps.

“Yes,” she almost moaned, making me chuckle.

She was ready in less than half an hour and I wasn’t surprised to see that, even when she could summon any clothes she could imagine, she chose denim pants and a white shirt that made her breasts look especially delicious.

I didn’t know if it was her body reacting to the magic of this place or even syphoning part of it, but her boobs were a little bigger and heavier now. Only thinking about it made my hands itch to touch them and play with her ni.pples until they became two hard points.

“Come with me, honey,” I told her, offering a hand.

“Where are we going?”

“It’s a surprise!” I told her before enveloping her in my embrace and teleporting away in a flash of light.

The sun was about to set when we arrived at the top of one of the smaller hills in the region, where the next surprise was waiting for us.

“Holy fvck! What’s that? Is that real? I saw a Jedi tree, magic, Elves, and a werewolf even though I saw no wolf. I saw the devil… so I should have stopped wondering, no? But damn! Freaking unicorns? That’s even more unreal!”

I chuckled at the words of shock.

“They aren’t unicorns, Honey. They are Pegasus, horses with wings, no horns.”

“Still, unreal! Still wow!” she exclaimed.

Scooping my still shocked-looking mate in my arms I carried her to the chariot and she wrapped her arms around my neck firmly. We had to leave soon so as not to miss the sunset. The Fae Realm Aureum had very special ones. The sky shimmered in shades of orange, pink, and gold and something told me that surely my mate would love it.

“It’s not dangerous, right? I’ve never flown before, I mean a plane… I’ve never been in a plane, let alone a chariot of pegasus.” My Nina bit her lips nervously.

Nina

“No, Honey. It’s not, I would never let you fall,” he reassured me, running his fingers down my half-dry hair.

Oh, Zorion. It was already too late. I had already fallen hard and I’d never been that happy before. Now I was happy and dumbfounded, we were about to fly, guided by huge horses with golden wings. These animals were so pretty, much more beautiful than most people I know!

My arms tightened around him as the pegasus took off and in a matter of minutes, we were flying high into the sky.

The sunset sky looked like a surrealist painting, like a Dali* with brighter colours. Stars cascaded through in a spiral. It was simply out of the world. Crazy damn perfect magic! Holy s**t, I can see so many stars! I have to paint it!

“You can paint it soon, Honey. I am happy you like it,” he replied. Did I say the words out loud?

I still didn’t know where we were going and normally, I didn’t like surprises - taken that in my life I just got the bad kind of surprises - but now, I was completely up to it. I trusted this man, my mate.

The landscape under us started changing from mountains to a vast field of emerald trees. Yes, they weren’t green like grass but shining and vivid like emeralds.

“That’s so beautiful!” I gasped.

“We are flying over Emeraldia, the Elf Realm. But that’s not our destination.”

The name really fits the place. After a few more minutes, over an infinity of green forests, the landscape changed again and my eyes widened to their limit as I saw a sea of flowers of all colours and shapes. It was a Renoir*’s dream! The sky above us had shades of pink and orange and purple clouds aligned with the horizon gave it the final touch.

“That’s the place, the Fae Realm. Aureum, here besides adoring the Moon Goddess like the rest of the Realms, people adore the Sun, the light that nurtures life itself,” he explained.

As soon as I collected my jaw back and my mushy brain could think in words again, I murmured, “Oh Geez, Zorion! This place! It’s so beautiful!”

When my eyes met his blue-greenish ones, another kind of beauty absorbed me.

“Yes, very beautiful.” He smiled, his hand sliding from my hair to the place between my shoulders and neck. His gentle hand pulled my face a little closer, and I pressed my body against his solid chest, craving the proximity, the touch, the warmth of his skin. Our faces were only a few inches away. His breath caressed mine and made my body quiver a little, wetness dripping between my thighs.

This anticipation. The moment before the kiss contained infinities of heat and desire and were almost as delicious as the kiss itself.

After he feasted on my lips for a while, he pressed me against his chest, surrounding me with two strong arms and we watched the sunset from close, rays of gold spreading across the sky almost like watercolour would flow on the canvas.

“I love it, Zorion! Thank you!” my words came out in a mellow whisper.

“Honey, we are only starting! That’s not the main part of the surprise,” he chuckled.

The horses headed down and after crossing a river with light pink-water we landed in front of a garden of giant sunflowers. Behind it was a building that looked like a baroque castle emerged between the hills. Nature and architecture were a single thing in this place.

“This is the Fine Arts Academy of Aureum,” Zorion told me as he took me in his arms and jumped off the chariot.

I expected us to walk closer to the building, but instead, Zorion flashed us closer. Flash was the way they called teleporting here, which made sense because in a flash of light we were wherever we wanted. It was definitely better than Uber.

“So, that’s the place you said I could study in?” I asked, and Zorion nodded without putting me down on the floor. No complaints here, staying that close to his hot body wasn’t that bad.

“Yes, that’s it.”

The building was huge and made of some kind of purple stone. Wait, was it light-green now? Was I dizzy from the ride and the flashing-thing or did it change colours?

“Am I tripping, or is this palace academy tripping? Does it change colours?” I asked, blinking a couple of times to make sure.

“Yes, of course. Let’s go,” he told me.

Duh me, of course it changed colour, Nina! Get in your head that everything here is damn magical, everything but you!

To my surprise, Zorion opened the door and rushed into the building.

“Wait? What are you doing? Are we breaking in?” I asked, a little nervous. He was a prince and everything, but this wasn’t his Realm. Couldn’t he get in trouble for trespassing?

“No, they know we are here. Don’t worry, Honey.” He placed a soft kiss on my lips before putting me down to my feet. I looked around the building. Besides the classical Greek architecture, many life-size sculptures, and paintings of fantastic landscapes, there were flowers everywhere. There were openings on the high ceiling to let the light come in, and both the last sunset lights and the silver-white beams of the moon entered the place making me even higher in magic and beauty.

“Come with me; there is something for us on the balcony,” Zorion said, taking my hand and leading my lost self upstairs. Wait, were the stairs made of crystals?

After passing a room filled with the nude paintings of absurdly beautiful creatures, we reached the balcony. Among the flowers and some wood sculptures, there was a table set for two and a harp playing by itself.

“My sisters said that you might like to have the thing humans call a date,” he smiled, pulling a chair for me to sit on.

“I-I never had a date before!” I exclaimed, like a silly girl as I smiled at the concretisation of the dream I didn’t even know I had. It’s not like I ever allowed myself to dream until the dream-guy came into my life and whisked me away!

“So, it’s a first for both of us. When people here in the Realms find their mates, they go directly to bed, consolidate their bonds and move together.”

“How about dating someone that isn’t your mate?” I asked, not only out of curiosity but also because I couldn’t stop thinking about Lena and what she could do if she actually never found her mate. She and Tor could surely go for a date, they might not have a mate bond - or whatever it’s called - but there surely were sparkles between them. Even I, that had not even an ounce of magic in my body, could feel it.

“Not so often. Relationships between those who aren’t mates can end very badly, when one of them finds their mate and the other one doesn't. Some people sleep around until they find their mate, but they do not date.”

Well, I could see how it could go wrong.

“Good evening, Prince Zorion, Miss Nina.” I heard a sweet, melodic voice and when I turned around, I saw a beautiful short woman with silver hair and copper-coloured skin carrying a tray with fruit, cakes and cheese and a bottle of blue-coloured wine.

Did they have dessert for starters here? If so, I loved this place even more!

“Thank you,” Zorion said, with a polite smile, and the lady bowed down slightly before disappearing in a flash of pink light.

“Fairy wine is very popular around the realms, and it’s delicious but much stronger than human wine.” Zorion warned as I sipped the blue drink. Damn, it was so good! After trying this, I would totally understand if all the Fairies were day-drinkers and fell on their drunk bvtts everytime they tried to fly.

“I hope you enjoy it, Honey. Teema is one of the academy professors, but she was very kind to bring the food for us tonight. She said we will have traditional Fae Food for the main dish, purple potato crepe with some kind of truffles and cheese.”

Oh, damn! My future professor was bringing the food?

“Don’t worry, Honey. People here are kind and Teema wanted to do it herself instead of asking someone to do the job,” Zorion reassured me, squeezing my hand slightly and kissing the back of it.

Pff.. now I was relaxed enough to start eating. I tried the cheese and the soft but rich taste exploded into my mouth.

The main dish was even better, and the dessert, chocolate mousse with some kind of traditional fruit from here, was to die for! After I finished my food, Zorion stood up and took me in his arms, sitting me on his lap. Now it was the turn of my lady bits to be hungry, drooling for him.

He cupped my face and instead of kissing my lips like I expected, his lips landed on the swell of my breasts, and he caressed my cleavage with his starving tongue. His skilled hands moved my shirt down without ripping it off and his tongue reached my pebbled ni.pple. Goosebumps exploded all over my spine, and I moaned like an opera singer. I only hoped that the silver-hairy fairy wouldn’t come back any time soon.

“You taste so good! I wanted to do it all night long,” he murmured.

“Humm… yes!” The words came out along with another high-pitched moan.

How could he speak when his mouth was full of my n****e? As realisation hit me, I was thrown out of my haze of passion. My eyes widened as I almost leaped off his lap, “Wait, did you say that in my mind?”
