After months of travels, their days of adventures and debauchery had come to an end.
If they wanted a solemn environment, or the shedding of tears, Seth wasn't going to initiate it or be a part of it.
He watched as Irene took over the conversation and told Aimy to prepare to depart, and then Seth seeing Aimy being stubborn, reached out and pinched her ass.
"Ouch," Aimy cried looking at Seth with an expression of hurt.
"You are going first because you are the clumsiest and youngest" Seth told Aimy.
"But am older than you"
"And I'm stronger than you."
Aimy's face tightened looking between Seth and Iren wanting a way out but finding none.
It was one thing if they were lying to get her to do something, but in this case, they were both speaking the truth as even she didn't trust herself not to make a mistake sometime later.
"Let's have one last fuck" the newly created supreme suggested, but this time it wasn't Iren that shut down the idea but Seth.
"If we do that we'll only find ourselves in cycles of endless fucking, prolonging the inevitable."
A feeling of sadness was beginning to envelop Aimy but then she felt Seth hold her and when she looked up at him, he kissed her.
Unlike how they usually shared sloppy kisses, all Seth did this time was press his lips against hers, and looking into his eyes, she knew this was his goodbye to her.
Aimy licked her lips when Seth pulled away from her, and then she quickly turned away from him and looked at her hand.
Before she could do anything, Aimy felt a very familiar pair of arms wrap around her.
"Don't do anything funny okay, when you get to Ashad, complete your mission and head home.
If it was before, Aimy might have perhaps thought her sister was bothering her, but now she quietly nodded her head.
After receiving a peck to the forehead, Aimy rubbed the bloody fingers of her left hand over her right wrist, various drawings quickly beginning to appear on her arms just like with Irene's.
Seeing the drawing on her hands, Seth's attention moved to Aimy's right hand, his mind beginning to zone in on it, but then Irene quickly moved towards him and began pulling him away.
"We're too close" were Irene's only words as she took him over 10 steps away from Aimy before stopping.
Now a distance from the woman, they watched as the space beside her quickly began cracking, a blue light shooting from the compass in Aimy's hand and covering her as the space beside her cracked and eventually began collapsing on itself and turning into a swirling black mass.
Aimy gave one last look at the both of them a smile on her face as the swirling black mass behind her sucked her into its darkness, leaving Egaroth now devoid of a clumsy supreme.
"While creating the channel is easy, for the channel to self-destroy is hard due to the tons of energy put into making it as stable as possible.
At the moment, anyone can get in which is why the channel always appears at random places away from secluded eyes, and besides, there is also the risk of it being destroyed by someone.
"You have about 10 minutes before the portal begins to collapse, so don't worry you will be safe," Irene said and began moving away.
"Where are you heading?"
"To activate my compass, can't be too close or there would be inference."
Iren was calmly moving away when she suddenly found herself being hugged from behind and kept in place.
"Remember what you told Aimy, don't do anything stupid, especially now that you have limited time."
"You never answered my question that night," Seth said.
"Because I didn't want to"
"Then my bad for asking, Right now am telling you to tell me."
Irene went silent for a few seconds and then looked to the side, staring into Seth's piercing gaze and then looking away she replied.
"No. Why? Because it doesn't concern you."
"Are you going back to marry him, make him your husband?" Seth asked deciding to go another angle.
"I'm marrying no one" Irene answered and then she shook her head.
"You're too greedy Seth, You've denied me love but won't let me go, why? Are you so heartless?"
"Because you belong to me," Seth said releasing Irene and turning her so she faced him.
"Yes I can't reciprocate your love, but I don't want you running off and being with other men, I don't want any man touching you."
"But I overheard you and Aimy's chat, you gave her the option to seek a man if she so desires, why don't I have that option."
"Though I care for the both of you, the level of feelings I have are completely different."
Hearing Seth's words, Irene could only shake her head in frustration.
"So what do you want me to do Seth, go back home and live a life of loneliness?"
"No become a supreme, and I'll come find you, I take you and put you in my treasure box"
"Beneath your lover" Irene whispered, but Seth did not back down.
"Yes beneath her and with me"
With Seth's words, Irene wanted to move away from him, but Seth held her in place.
"Will you rather not have me at all?"
"No, I want you" Irene whispered leaning into Seth and feeling his warm breath on her neck, knowing that his fangs were moving for her neck and just as he was about to bite her she held his head.
"No Seth, I don't want to be a supreme, don't make me one of your subordinates."
Hearing Irene's words, Seth pulled back and looked at her questioningly.
"Is Rose a supreme" Aimy suddenly asked.
"No"
"I see," Irene muttered, and looking at Seth, she kissed him.
"Just so you don't go having nightmares, I want you to know that other than you I won't ever let any man touch me" Irene spoke, and while Seth was stunned by her sudden words She got out of his hold and activated her compass.
Taking steps back as the space around Irene began cracking, Seth looked at her questioningly.
"Irene what are you planning."
"Nothing too complicated darling it's like this, seeing how much you want me right now has made me realize, that it's not that you don't love me, but that you believe you love Rose more, so my plan is to kill Rose."
"Huh"
Seth was completely shocked.
"If she's dead, you'll grieve her but in the end no matter how angry you are at me, our love will prevail."
These were the last words Seth heard from Irene before she disappeared leaving Seth staring at the black hole that had swallowed Irene in shock.
"Did I break her?" Seth thought, worry on his face, as scenes of Rose tearing apart Irene began surfacing in his head but before he could think more, his head snapped to the right, his eyes narrowing as he felt danger.
