「 47 | ORION 」

CASTYR'S POV

Strong arms wrap around me from behind. Instantly filled by my love's presence, I turn around and bury myself into Kilo's chest. A slender hand finds the back of my head and begins stroking its fingers through my hair. I hum happily as I breathe in that honey scent.

"Is this a dream?" I ask into Kilo.

"Mm hmmm. But it's really me."

I pull away and look up at those intoxicating purple eyes. "Really? You're really here? I'm not imagining you?"

Kilo smiles down softly and nods.

"Because of the link?" I inquire.

He nods.

"Sooo, we can meet each other through the link in our dreams?"

"Yes."

"Wow," I whisper. Tears touch my eyes as I look up at the man holding me. "You're really here." I rest my hand on the angel's cheek making sure it is really him. A tear rolls down Kilo's face as he turns into my touch.

He takes my hand and tenderly kisses it. "I've missed you so much."

"I've missed you, too." I am on the edge of breaking down, but I have to stay strong for Kilo.

"How are you? Are you alright?" Kilo holds me at arm's length as he looks me up and down, checking for any wounds.

"I'm fine. They haven't touched me," I assure the angel.

Kilo heaves a sigh before pulling me into his arms. I wrap my arms around his back as he holds me tightly. A strange sensation like I am being shaken runs through my body interrupting my time with Kilo.

"I think somebody is trying to wake me up."

"What? Are you with someone?"

"Mm hmm. A guy with silver-ish hair. I think he's an angel. I'm currently healing him. He was hurt really badly."

"Oh? Is his hair a kind of silver-blue?"

"How do you know?"

"He's probably the angel who got me out of Hades."

"Oh! Well, in that case, I will make certain to heal him beautifully. He saved my Kilo." I smile and snuggle into my angel even more.

I feel Kilo's hold tighten as he does not want to let me go. I grasp onto his broad shoulders as I feel my body starting to wake up.

"I don't want to go," I protest quietly. "I don't want to leave you."

"I know, I know." Kilo brings me to look up at him. "Promise me you'll be careful. I can't lose you."

"Okay. I'll try. I l-"

And just like that, my eyes snap open. The strong arms around me vanish. Instead, I am looking into a pair of honey-golden eyes.

"Are you okay?" The man asks as he stares down at me with worry. His voice is deep and soothing.

"You woke up faster than I thought you would," I greet as I sit up. He must really be something. I study the man checking on me like I am his duckling or something. He is very mothering. His body is healing nicely; the swelling in his eye is nearly gone, revealing big, almond shaped eyes.

"U-u-uh uh," the man stutters as I lift his shirt and check his wounds.

I nod my head as I see they are mostly healed. His naturally muscular arms really show through his sleeve-less shirt.

"Who are you?" He asks with big eyes.

"Oh. I'm Castyr of Ithyos," I introduce myself.

"Orion," the man greets before looking down at his almost-healed body. "How-how? Are you an angel? You don't smell like one."
