"That... That skank! Who does she think she is?!"

As Aisha rambled and cursed away, Nero heaved a deep sigh of relief.

'That... Could have gone a lot worse.'

"Hey, Nero!"

Nero held his chest tighten as Aisha suddenly snapped her head towards him.

"What was that? What were you two talking about?! Do you have feelings for her or something?! Were you talking about disgusting things behind my back?!"

'Hey, hey... Aren't we jumping the gun a bit too much here?' Nero thought to himself as sweat slid profusely down his back.

However, as he stared into Aisha's dark and slightly crazed eyes, he couldn't help but feel the need to clarify a few things.

"Aisha..." He began saying seriously.

But before he could say anything more, he was tackled to the ground.

Feeling the warm flesh pressed against his body and the divine fragrance slinking into his lungs, Nero could help but feel his mind go blank for a moment.

He was assaulted by a wave of conflicting emotions.

Even if he knew of the matters of the bees and the birds, he had never engaged in those practices. It was all new to him.

Beside, weren't they moving too fast here?! There was supposed to be a whole lot more before they got here, right?!

Suddenly, Nero paused and his entire body went cold.

The things he had seen in that dream came flooding back.

"Aisha..."

Her body trembled and she slowly raised her head.

Nero looked into her eyes and went pale.

'Ah. There it is...'

Those eyes he had seen.

His body automatically moved to fight mode as he tried to get her off of him.

But he was shocked to discover there was not much he could do against her. Her dainty body was filled with so much strength, she didn't budge even an inch.

Her eyes filled with crimson light, Aisha muttered out something intelligible.

Her body, now straddling him, began to move like a serpent, coiling around him until the air was out of his lungs.

She bent and whispered into his ears,

"Nothing is taking you away from me. I don't want to lose anything anymore."

Her voice was strange and fragmented now. It filled him with fear.

Nero grit his teeth.

'This is good to be bad.'

He had to managed the situation and snap her out of it.

"Aisha, snap out of it."

Her slightly dazed eyes seemed to regain some clarity.

However, in the next moment, her lips split into a grin.

It was a strange, yet seductive grin. Almost like it did not belong on a face so innocent.

Nero felt his lower body tremble.

Without a warning, Aisha leaned in again.

This time, her lips met his.

'Crap!'

Nero tried to struggle free, but she kept him in place firmly.

Her tongue reached into his, sliding past his teeth and tangling with his.

Nero trembled.

'Is... Is this how kissing feels?'

It was not... unpleasant at all.

But the current setting left much to be desired.

For one, his back was still pressed against the forest floor.

Not to mention they were still in the middle of the corrupted wilderness. Anything could strike at them from this compromised state and it would all be over.

And yet, there was nothing he could do.

Suddenly, Nero felt something strange.

A sweet taste on the tip of his tongue.

His eyes widened and he tried to pull back.

But Aisha moaned and pressed her lips even more firmly against his as her waist began to move even more vigorously.

Her arms began roaming around his body.

Nero felt a stream of cold energy flow into his body through his mouth.

'Is this...!'

It was Ein Sof!

And it was rather potent.

His eyes rolled to the back of his head.

Far more potent than anything he could have gotten from eating Abomination flesh.

The chill filling his body created a stark contrast with the warmth withkn him and on his skin.

He could no longer contain himself as he pulled her waist in deeper.

Their bodies seemed to melt into one another for eternity and a day.

And then...

Nero felt Aisha push against him forcibly, separating them for a moment.

A strand of saliva stretched between their lips before it was broken.

Nero felt his heart furiously thumping in his chest.

"Woah..." He exclaimed in disbelief.

He was completely filled to the brim with Ein Sof.

'I don't need any more for a few more days.'

He stared at Aisha with eyes filled with disbelief.

'This girl is...'

Amazing? Terrifying? Or perhaps even both.

She she looked at him again, the strange glow in her eyes was gone.

Instead, it was replaced by a trembling fear and embarrassment.

"Nero, I... I'm so sorry."

Tears poured down her eyes as she bowed her head in apology over and over again.

Nero scratched his head,

"No. There's no need to apologize."

"But..."

Instead of letting her dwell on apologizing for too long, Nero decided to ask her about it instead,

"What happened?"

Aisha pursed her lips.

Then she sucked in a deep breath,

"The reason I was selected by the Church to join the Templars is due to my immense affinity to the energy of the world called Ein Sof. Ein Sof exists in everything, anything and nothing, all at once, forever and ever."

Aisha's gaze turned dark and sad,

"I was meant to join the Church, but I failed because I cannot control it. Even worse, sometimes, my body gets partially possessed by an ancient Demon that has taken a liking to me. It's all because of me that happened. I'm the reason my parents are dead. It's all my fault."

As she spoke, tears poured down her face.

Nero sat there, dumbfounded.

There was nothing for him to say as he was still reeling in shock from the revelation.

He stared at Aisha blankly for a moment.

'Aisha...'

He thought to himself,

'What in the seven Hells are you?!'
