The Immortal's Stalker

🪷••The Mysterious Feather••🪷

As Sati stood transfixed before the idol, she began to feel a strange sensation wash over her. The energy emanating from the goddess grew stronger, and she felt herself being drawn into a deep, meditative state. The world around her faded away, and she found herself standing in a vast, empty space.

Suddenly, Sati heard a deep masculine voice , chanting some mantra ,"ओम जयंती मंगला काली भद्रकाली कपालिनी। दुर्गा क्षमा शिवा धात्री स्वाहा स्वधा नमोस्तुते।।"

"Om Jayanti Mangala Kali Bhadrakali Kapalini. Durga Kshama Shiva Dhatri Swaha Swadha Namostute. "

She slowly ventured into the inner sanctum of the temple , to see the source of the voice . And then, she saw him - Shiv, sitting in padmasana, his eyes closed, and his voice resonating with the ancient words.

Sati felt drawn to the serenity and peace that surrounded Shiv, and she found herself gravitating towards him. The mantra seemed to be weaving a spell around her, and she felt her heart and mind opening up to its power.

As she approached Shiv, the chanting grew louder, and the air seemed to vibrate with an otherworldly energy. Sati felt herself becoming one with the mantra, her spirit soaring to new heights.

Then, after a few minutes of chanting, Shiv stopped, his voice trailing off into silence. He offered some flowers to the idol of Devi, his hands trembling with devotion. Then, he closed his eyes, his face serene and peaceful.

The sudden silence was palpable, and Sati felt a sense of stillness wash over her. She watched, mesmerized, as Shiv's chest rose and fell with each slow breath. The air was heavy with the scent of incense and flowers, and the flickering lamps cast a warm glow over the scene.

And then, Shiv slowly turned around, his eyes still closed, deeply immersed in the mantra. His face was radiant, his breath slow and peaceful, and his entire being seemed to be vibrating with an otherworldly energy. As he opened his eyes, his gaze met Sati's, and she felt a jolt of electricity run through her veins. Shiv's eyes seemed to bore into her soul, as if he could see the deepest recesses of her heart. Sati felt her breath catch in her throat as she gazed into his eyes, her heart pounding in her chest. The air around them seemed to vibrate with an intense, unspoken connection, as if their hearts were beating in perfect synchrony.

Slowly, Shiv began to move towards her, his eyes never leaving hers. Sati stood frozen in place, her heart pounding in her chest, as he approached her. She felt like a magnet was drawing her towards him, and she couldn't help but be pulled into his orbit. He moved closer and closer, his gaze burning with an intensity that made her soul tremble. And then, he passed by her, his eyes slipping away from hers as he continued on, leaving her feeling like she had been pierced by an arrow of longing. Sati was left standing there, feeling like she had been left breathless and bewildered, wondering what had just happened.

Sati couldn't understand why she felt so drawn to Shiv, why her heart raced and her breath caught in her throat whenever he looked at her. She felt like she was losing control, like her body was betraying her. She needed to calm her mind, to clear her thoughts and regain her composure. Meditation was the answer, she told herself. She walked outside the sanctum, searching for a quiet spot to collect her thoughts. She found a secluded place, not too far from the temple, where she could sit and meditate without distraction. She settled into padmasana, closed her eyes, and began to focus on her breath. As she meditated, she felt her mind slowly calm, her thoughts untangling like knots in a thread. She breathed deeply, feeling her body relax, her heart slow its frantic pace. And yet, even as she sought peace, she couldn't shake the memory of Shiv's eyes, the way they seemed to see right through her.
