Shadows of the Heart: A Love Reborn

A Glimpse into the future

---
The sun had set, casting a warm glow over the landscape as Goku and Vegeta made their way back to the house.
Karia had been left behind, needing some time to herself after the strange and unsettling events that had unfolded earlier.
Despite the comforting quiet of the night, her mind was far from peaceful.

Goku's laughter echoed in the distance as he and Vegeta sparred, a brief moment of camaraderie between the two fighters.
Yet, Karia couldn't shake the strange feeling that lingered in her chest. The encounter with Broly had left her conflicted, and part of her was angered, while another part felt a deep, inexplicable pull toward him. It made her uncomfortable, and she wanted answers. But those answers felt miles away.

She needed to clear her mind.

Karia stepped outside the house, feeling the cool night air brush against her skin. She took a deep breath, trying to ground herself.
The sky was dotted with stars, their soft light almost serene in contrast to the chaotic thoughts swirling in her head. She let the silence surround her, her gaze fixed on the horizon. Her connection with Broly was something she could neither understand nor deny, and it weighed heavily on her.

As she stood there, lost in her thoughts, a sharp crackling sound in the distance broke the stillness. Her senses immediately heightened,
the familiar energy signature reaching her before anything else. Broly.

His presence was unmistakable. It was powerful, almost suffocating, and it sent a chill down her spine. She turned, her heart racing as she saw his towering figure emerge from the shadows, his eyes locked on her. Karia instinctively took a step back, her body tensing as he approached.

You've been avoiding me as Brolys's voice rumbled, low and commanding. His tone was equal to curiosity and challenge. Why?

Karia clenched her fists, refusing to let him see her unease. I don't owe you any answers, "she retorted, though her voice trembled slightly.
She wasn't sure why she was so defensive, but his presence had an effect on her that she could deny. Something in the air shifted, tension crackling between them like an electric storm.

Broly lips curled into a smirk, and he stepped closer. Not about what you owe, as he said, his gaze never leaving hers.
About what is inevitable.

Karia's heart pounded in her chest as Brolys's hand shot out, grabbing her arm with a force that left no room for escape.
His grip was unrelenting like steel wrapping around her. She tried to jerk away, but he held her in place.

Before she could react, he leaned down, capturing her lips in a kiss that was sudden and intense.
The moment his lips touched hers, a jolt of heat surged through her, and her body reacted before her mind could process it.
His kiss was forceful, taking control, yet there was something undeniably magnetic about it.

Karia's mind screamed for her to push him away, to fight back. But in that moment, all the emotions and confusion she had been bottling up erupted,
making her body betray her instincts. She kissed him back, though unwillingly, but the heat between them escalated.

Brolys's hands roamed as his kiss deepened, pulling her impossibly closer. His body pressed against hers, a wall of muscle and strength that made it impossible to break free. His touch was firm, almost possessive, igniting something fierce in Karia that she couldn't comprehend. She wasn't ready for this. It was too much, too soon, but she couldn't escape it. She couldn't escape him.

As if sensing her vulnerability, Broly didn't let up. His mouth trailed from her lips to her neck, and before Karia could stop him,
he bit into her skin with a sharp, burning pain. She gasped, feeling his teeth sink deep into her flesh. It was a possessive act,
one that left her trembling in his grasp.

Her body went weak, the pain and pleasure mixing in a way that made her dizzy. For a moment, the world seemed to spin,
and she could feel herself slipping
