Monarch of Darkness, Arsene

Chapter 378: Oasis of Demara

"Are you going to just lay there?" Lilith asked, glistering with sunlight rain down her dark hair. Sensing the burning heat of the sand drilling into my flesh, I spread my arm far and wide as if to make a sand angel.

"Lay with me," I asked, marveling at the three stars within the skies, each of them appearing to be a different color, sending the skies into the multi-shade of Azure. "I think this is my first time, you know. Seeing three sun. Blue, Yellow, and ruby red, how strange, yet the skies seem to be normal."

Snuggling like a cat into my arms, she grinned, "Yeah, they were Grandmama\'s favorite colors. She couldn\'t decide on one, so Grandpa gave his realm all three."

"You going to tell me what\'s going on? or were you went?"

"Where is the fun in that?"

"The fun?" I muttered, turning my head towards her face inches from mine. Staring at her cherry lips, I could feel her body getting hotter and the crazed intent to be punished emanating from her soul.

"Let\'s head to the Oasis of Demara," Lilith suggested licking the tip of my lips like a naughty minx. "I wish to drink from it."

"Is that all?" I traced my fingers over her soft lips; she gave them a touching kiss,

"It\'s also known as the Oasis of Fertility." She said, but I knew there was more to it. I had felt a horrid presence a few kilometers from the cabin. She was definitely planning something.

Reaching for her lips, I suddenly sunk my teeth into them as she squirmed in shock. Drawing blood, I backed away, licking the taste of heaven upon my lips; pulling out a vial from the darkness, I handed it to her.

"Adrienne forgot to take our blood. Can you still send it to Grey?" I asked, watching her passion blossoming from her lips.

Lifting the vial to her mouth, I watched as it trickled down. Holding me in her sights like prey, I felt the hairs upon my skin begin to rise, "Is there any other place you wanna go?" she seductively asked, slithering her fingers down towards her garden.

"When the sun begins to set, my dear." Pointing towards the smoke in the distance, "Or would you like to screw as people approach."

"I forgot its morning," she muttered as I handed her a vial of my blood, "I will send it over, but it may take a while for Grey to receive it. Same for calls and texts. Alos is a realm that is heavily protected. It will be a while till we are secured.

"Feels like something you should have mentioned,"

"And where would the fun be in that. Grey will be fine, and so will our kingdom. Relax, and let\'s enjoy this honeymoon of ours. When was the last time you just did whatever you wanted?"

Narrowing my gaze towards Lilith, who I almost didn\'t recognize. She loved me. That much still remained, but everyone else. Everyone else to her seemed nothing more than dirt for her to walk on. She did not seem to care about those I care about anymore.

Touching my chin, I watched her entire body begin to change into that of a noble warrior. Long leather boots that reached her knees, emerald leather trousers, and a vibrant white blouse. Slowly her long black hair began to change to a wild scarlet as she placed a purple hat upon her head with an emerald feather sticking out. If I didn\'t know her, I would her thought her to be out of the victorian era or some game.

Spinning around like a princess, she touched my chest as the clothing or robes around me began to transform. Shining in a light, I appeared dressed in all black. Ranging from leather boots to trousers, shirts to even the long leather black cloak.

"A pirate?" I asked, receiving a vibrant nod. "Looks good, right? My bad-boy husband is now a pirate. AAAHHH, you look so cute!"

"First off, I look sexy! Or devilishly handsome. There is a difference!" I declared just at the right time as we saw a small party of three dressed in bathing suits appear.

There were two women, followed by a man with a charming smile. Holding his attention upon Lilith for a bit, he grinned, "Newcomers? How strange we didn\'t see you come in last night!"

Feeling the names of everyone enter my head, Lilith smiled, holding my arm, "Well, with such beautiful ladies at your side, I am not surprised you missed us."

Blushing a bit, the two ladies lowered their heads, "My name is Yura, this is my husband—

"Abaddon," I swiftly stated with a smile gripping Lilith\'s waist so tight she began to blush alongside the two ladies, "well met"

"Well met!" He too introduced, "I am Dreck, and these are my two wives. Deb, and Vicky."

"then Dreck, do you by chance know where the Oasis of Demara is by any chance?" I asked, watching Liliths eyes grow wide and misty.

"you can\'t just ask people that!" she muttered in shame to my surprise.

"Never heard of it," said Dreck while his wives nodded off to the side. "What is it by any chance?"

"If you don\'t know, never mind," I stated, noticing Lilith holding her head low.

"oh, come tell us, please?\' Deb, the little freckled ginger probe.

"Yeah! does it have some type of treasure?" Vicky added with long phoenix eyes.

Liftin her head, Lilith shook her head hastily, "We don\'t know. We have just read about it and decided to journey in hopes of finding as a honeymoon." She said with lies and truths.

"Arsene," Lilith sent via Soulforce, "To say one is going to the Oasis of Demara means that the wife cannot bear a child... it\'s humiliating."

Widening my eyes, I frowned, patting her fiery hair before sending her a gentle kiss upon her head, "Is that why you wanted to go? You know my body is constantly adapting, meaning it\'s also changing. The chances of us bearing a child is astronomically small," I sent back.

"Yet, that doesn\'t make me feel any better. Knowing the chances of me having a child is so small."

"Umm, are you Ok?" Deb asked with hopeful eyes, overflowing with the greed within the depts of her heart. "

"Of course. It\'s just I wasn\'t supposed to bring up our location. I am new to this, is all. Please forget what I said." I shamefully blushed, lowering my head,

"Here\'s an idea why not come with us. We are new to the Swords Coast and are in desperate need of a map." Said Lilith blushing alongside me, appearing as innocent newlyweds

"Maps are rare, but I will definitely help. How else can us residence of the Swords Coast not help out? Come with us. I know of a great bar we can talk at." Said Dreck grinning from ear to ear.

"You\'re a lifesaver!"
