   The loud chatter that rung throughout the corridors of the training building quieted to mere whispers upon my entrance. I suppose it's only fair, if a girl had randomly shown up at the pack house and was suddenly getting trained by the Alpha then I'd be suspicious too. The field filled with people I've never seen before, so I guess it's safe to assume these are the trainees Alex mentioned last night. Once every other month Alex opens the palace doors to people who believe they have what it takes to protect this place. Very rarely does anyone get through considering Alex's pickiness and the Guardians shannaigans, which normally scares people off.

I stood still in front of the locked door to receive a full body scan by the monitors. With a blink of an eye the doors slid open to reveal a dark hallway. As my foot touched the ground it lit up in a soft blue illuminating the walk way. I suppose some things don't change at all. Taking in the platinum covered walls that contrasted well with the gold, outlined glass casings. Weapons lined the walls, each of them carrying a seal that only the rightful wielder knows. My feet led me to the middle of the room, as if going by muscle memory.

Along with Alex's prized weapons laid mine on the right, a silver bow, two dark blue .44 magic infused caliber smith handguns, and my second finest sword. The first got lost somehwere up in the Sphere when I surrendered. It could practically be anywhere, but maybe, if I ever receive some free time I'll go hunting for it.

"You're so beautiful," A chill ran along my spine at the sound of Alex's silky voice. An arm circled my waist as her hand snaked its way to the front of my neck. The nostalgic atmosphere crashed as a dark aura filled the room. It wrapped around me like a blanket, almost suffocating me all while giving me the bare minimum of oxygen. It can only be described as Alex herself. Death, in the most breathtaking form possible.

"I don't understand what the hell happened on Middle-Earth, for your comprehension skills to be lacking," Her grip on my throat tightened as her lips brushed against my neck. Each word set my stomach ablaze, and in a flurry of knots. Doesn't she know I can't think with her this close, and this presence, why is her presence so fucking strong all of a sudden. And since when does it leave me feeling helpless and stuck like a fool. "What did I tell you an hour ago?" Her words came out through gritted teeth, dripping with a sense of authority mixed with an underlying tone of strain. My mind too fuzzy with confusion, lust, and shock to remember the basic language of English.

       Times have changed and her affect on me hasn't. I choked between a gasp, moan, and words as her hand calmly slid into my spandex. "Don't make me repeat myself, or you won't be able to walk out of here,".

"I-I, fuck," the pleasure that surged through my body from smooth fingers gliding over my now soaked, material that use to be called underwear, indescribable to anything I've felt since I left. Excitement coursed through my bud, as she jumped at every flick of Alex's wrist, giving the arch in my back a purpose. "Du-dunno" a lack of control overtook me as the statement flew from between my parted lips.

     What is she doing to me? The pressure on my neck increased till just a shallow stream of air was allowed in and out of my system. Oh fuck me up, her fingers sped up, eliciting unwanted moans out of me. I switched my hands from gripping her wrist closer, and to pull her away. I stood on my tippy-toes pressing firmly against her front with my chest poked out in an attempt to move, yet draw her closer in. I shook my head as the need to draw her in and yank her away grew every second my chance at euphoria got closer.

      I became aware of the cold air as she took her hands away from my most intimate area and my neck. The burning, pleasurable sensation that crawled along my skin came to a stand still in a blink of an eye. I met her intense gaze taken back by the glint of disappointment. " I asked kindly for you to put clothing on and you blantly said you were going to do it before coming to the arenas. Im not telling you to put clothes on just for the hell of it-

    Her words came to a halt as the sound of knocking became apparent. " Clothes on now," she instructed placing a T-shirt and sweats in my pants. Avoiding her gaze, I nodded, placing the pants in between my legs while I throw the loose shirt on. It totally went over my head when she said to put real clothes on this morning. Its not like Im butterball naked or as if I'm dressed scandalously. I mean sure my neon pink sports bra and short black spandex are pushing it, but the more clothes the more weight. Which eventually leds to slowing me down. I didn't mean to ignore what she said though, I just forgot and now I feel like shit for having her angry with me. Great, just great.

Grabbing my two handguns, I followed slightly behind Alex as the knocking continues. "Lex...I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you angry at me.."I trailed off as she stopped walking.

"I'm not angry babygirl, but I expect you to listen to what I tell you because I'm not telling you what to do just because I'm overprotective, but for your health and benefit also," A slight smile tugged at the edge of her lips, causing my own to sprout.

She stepped near the entrance of the door, resulting in it to open and reveal Regina. "King Aries, a member of the grand council is requesting your audience,"

    "Where are they," I enjoy how her voice sounds, so stotic when talking to Regina. It makes me feel somehow more secure.

     "This way your highness, they said it could not wait hence their informal arrival," we followed behind her, passing up demons, half-breeds, and a whole variety of different creatures. Reaching the center of the field to seem them talking with Artemis and Amara.

     " Princess Fallon, King Aries, what a joy to see you two together again," Miranda's sultry voice spoke as she bowed. The only visible part of her body is her violet eyes that illuminate from under her hood covered face.

  It's a rule for the council members to not show their face to commoners, or anyone other than the royal family of the Underworld. It's said that their robes are what bind their powers and anyone not of royal blood would die from the overwhelming power they hold.  - story fact

     " Councilwoman Miranda, what a pleasure it is to see you again," I ignored the chatter that commenced amognst the crowd as she said my name. I guess some are familiar with it.

"Likewise dear, I've come as always, to see if the rumors were true. It's a joy to see that this time it checks out. I assume the palace will once again flourish with it's warmth now that the light of our King's world as returned," I couldn't help the laugh that bubbled up and out my mouth. Something about that sentence tickles my belly. " The council shall be pleased to hear the rightful heir to the Celestial Sphere and fiancée of King Aries has returned. Tomorrow the council will be holding a meeting, where  we shall discuss what is to come next, farewell," An with those final words she took off into the air disappering into the clouds.

   " Well well well, it seems that this just got interesting,"Artemis stated, tugging on his hair, a sign of his distress.

     " You think? The council wasn't supposed to find out about this for another week or two," Amara added, unlike Artie, her composure remains intact. I grinned taking in her appearance, her tomboy struggle, short wavy blonde hair and ocean blue eyes haven't changed one bit. Catching my eye she smiled jerking me out of Alex's grip. " On another note, is good to have you back kiddo," I awkwardly hugged her back with my guns still in hand. The smell of the ocean clouded my senses as I took in her familiar scent. Her hugs were always the best next to Alex's of course.

" Alright enough touchy time, it's time for Fallon's lesson with magical weapons," Artie's annoyance runined our moment of reconnecting." Because I'm pretty sure she has no idea on how to handle those guns in her hands,"

    "Screw you," I mumbled releasing Amara from my hold. She have me one last smile before turning her attention to Alex.

    " Aries, something has come up that Amy and I want you to see,"

    "Alright, Fallon be careful love, I don't wanna have to come and kill anyone because you weren't careful," I grinned at her words, with a nod off my head, I trail off beseides Artie.

" Artie, where is Sage ? I don't think I've seen him yet," he gave a small grin,

" He's around here somewhere, him and Aries are rising between planning what's next and this week had been his week. Next week it would be Aries again and by that time we should have covered all the basic skills with you,"
