Valeria lay in the grand bed, surrounded by the softest silks, her breathing steady and peaceful. The chamber was quiet, the air thick with the comfort of memories she didn’t yet fully grasp. For the first time in a while, she felt at ease, as if the burdens of her unknown past and the confusion of her present were momentarily lifted.
The soft light from the crystals above bathed her in a calming glow, casting delicate shadows on her face. Her features softened in sleep, her brow no longer furrowed with the worry and confusion she had carried. Here, in this place that once was hers, she could finally rest.
As she slept, her mind drifted into dreams—dreams that felt more like memories. In the dream, she was walking through the castle again, but it was different. There was a warmth, a sense of belonging, and alongside her walked three figures, their presence familiar. She could feel the weight of their love, their loyalty. She could feel their bond.
But then, a shadow loomed at the edges of her vision. A presence so powerful, so dark, it made her chest tighten. In the distance, she saw a figure standing at the castle's edge, his face hidden but his eyes glowing with a dangerous, yet captivating light. A voice echoed through her dream, a voice that chilled her and comforted her all at once.
"You belong to me, Azura Nephtthys..."
Valeria stirred slightly in her sleep, her hand twitching as if trying to grasp something. The name echoed in her mind, the voice pulling her deeper into the dream.
Suddenly, the castle in her dream began to shift, the warmth turning cold, and the familiar faces around her disappeared into the mist. The dark figure moved closer, his aura overwhelming, and for a moment, she felt torn between two worlds—the safety of her current life, and the pull of something far older, far more ancient.
Just as the figure reached out to her, she woke with a sharp gasp, her heart racing. She sat up in bed, the room quiet and still, but her mind was anything but. The dream lingered, the feeling of that voice, that presence—Zelerious—still clinging to her thoughts.
Her breath steadied, but her mind remained restless. She could feel that there was something more she needed to understand, something more about her connection to him.
Valeria slowly rose from the bed, her mind still clouded by the remnants of the dream. She felt the pull of the outside world, needing the cool night air to clear her head. Walking to the balcony, she pushed open the glass doors and stepped out into the open.
The sight that greeted her was mesmerizing—the sky painted in deep purples and blues, with seven moons in different phases glowing softly above her. Each moon seemed to hum with a subtle, ethereal energy, their light reflecting off the distant mountain peaks and casting an otherworldly glow over the landscape.
Valeria leaned on the balcony railing, her gaze fixed on the celestial display. The moons were unlike anything she had seen on Earth, their beauty both calming and unsettling. As she watched them, she felt a strange connection—a tug at something deep within her, as if they were speaking to her in a language she didn’t yet understand.
The breeze gently tousled her hair as she sighed, her thoughts wandering back to the dream. Zelerious' voice, the way he had called her "Azura Nephtthys," and the intensity of his presence still echoed in her mind. There was something undeniable between them, something she couldn’t ignore, but at the same time, the bond she shared with the elemental kings was strong, pulling her in another direction.
She closed her eyes for a moment, taking in the cool air, trying to make sense of it all. The beauty of the seven moons above and the soft glow of the night did little to calm the storm of emotions brewing within her.
"Why do I feel so connected to him? Why now, after all this time?" she whispered to herself, her breath forming mist in the cold air.
As she stood there, staring into the cosmic beauty of the night sky, a single thought came to her mind: Who am I truly meant to be?
As Valeria stood lost in her thoughts, she felt the warmth of strong arms gently wrap around her waist. Startled for a moment, she glanced down and immediately recognized the familiar touch. Asher. His presence was comforting, grounding her amidst the swirling confusion inside her mind.
"I thought I might find you here," he murmured softly, his voice deep and soothing against her ear. He rested his chin lightly on her shoulder, his golden eyes reflecting the light of the seven moons as he gazed out at the sky with her.
Valeria let herself relax into his embrace, drawing strength from his calm energy. Asher had always been the quiet one, the protector among the elemental kings. His presence was steady, like the earth itself, and despite the storm of emotions in her heart, she found solace in the way he held her.
"You seem troubled," he continued, his voice a low rumble, almost like a whisper carried by the wind. "Is it because of the dream?"
She closed her eyes for a moment, leaning into him. "How did you know?"
"I can feel it," Asher replied, his arms tightening just slightly around her. "We are bonded, even if everything still feels... complicated." His words hung in the air, an acknowledgment of the tangled web of past and present that tied them all together.
Valeria took a deep breath, her eyes drifting back to the sky. "I don’t know who I am anymore. I was... something else before. Someone else. And now I’m here, with you all, but part of me feels like I don’t belong. And then there’s him..." She trailed off, not needing to explain who she meant.
Asher's jaw tensed slightly. "Zelerious."
Valeria nodded, her fingers brushing against his as they rested on her waist. "I saw something in my dream, Asher. He called me by another name, something from my first life. Azura Nephtthys. I think... I think I was his queen, long ago."
Asher didn’t respond immediately, but his grip around her tightened protectively. "Whatever you were, whatever your past, you are with us now. We won’t let him take you, Valeria. Not again."
She turned slightly in his arms to look up at him, her eyes filled with uncertainty. "But what if I'm meant to remember? What if there's more to all of this than just a past life?"
Asher's golden gaze softened as he looked down at her. "Then we'll face it together. But no matter what, you are ours now. That hasn’t changed."
