Heroes Of Havalore

Ch.16 Karma is a you know what

James eyes blazing with red, engulfed by his aura of red fire and lightning unsheathes his golden sword with his right hand and begins to drag it on the floor making a screeching sound as he walks methodically towards the Aria and her shirtless lover. Then James grips the neck of the young man and lifts him into the air. "What is your name?" James growls as the young man tries to speak but ends up choking. "What wrong, Aria got your tongue. She does have that type of effect on guys." James snarls as he tightens his grip.

"James stop! He has nothing to do with you if..." Aria yells until James interrupts

James throws the shirtless guy to the front door of the palace then makes eye contact with Aria for the first time in three months and with a raspy tone, he says, "Is this what you fucking do? I was gone for three months! And you decide to sleep with other guys in MY GODDAMN HOUSE!"

The words of James light a rage in Aria's heart as she yells, "Three months? Three mother fucking months! I don't know where your non-counting ass been but it has been a whole year since I have seen you! I am not going to wait my whole life for a guy who thinks he can leave whenever he pleases. I have more respect for myself than to be your little damsel in distress!"

"Maybe if you weren't so weak I wouldn't have to save you." James roars at Aria causing Aria to blast him into the wall with a powerful gust of wind.

"I have trained nonstop since you left. I am at your level now." Aria states with confidence as Gabriel and Caleb's faces show a slight remorse as James gets up and walk through the barrage of condense blasts of air unfazed.

James walks up to Aria and stares deep into his into her eyes only to find hate and disdain there. James looks down at Aria as if he was slightly disappointed with the current state of her power. James grabs Aria's wrist as he presses her hand on his chest as he says, "You feel my heartbeat, it is perfectly normal because I am not afraid nor impressed by what you have accomplished in the last year I have been gone. But, if you are as strong as you claim to be, kill me."

Aria's hand begins to tremble as she maintains eye contact with slightly curious and calm James. Then she swings her fist at James who catches the punch. "I, hate you," Aria screams.

James looks at her with the same disdain as he says, "Get the hell out of my palace." Aria storms out the palace.

A couple of minutes later James is now in the library level of the palace going through the books that his mother laid out for him before the original of Asareth. James's frustration erupts in the form of his aura as he incinerates the books and looks up and yells, "Fucking dad of the year! You could at least tell me I would be gone for a year! I fucking hate you!"

"Oh, wow cursing your father. I also find that attractive." Veyra says as she walks down the spiraling stairs. Then she walks up to James whose eyes are burning red. She smiles at the almost feral James. Veyra reaches out her hand to touch James's cheek then she says, "You truly are a beautiful creature." Then she kisses him.

James's eyes turn back to blue as his aura dies down. He steps back as his face twists in confusion as he asks, "What the hell did to me?"

Veyra licks her lips as she slightly blushes. She soon regains her lustful composure and says, "I tasted some of your emotions and they taste amazing. I mean the just your magical energy itself it is exotic, I think I am addicted."

James grabs Veyra as he says, "Do it again." Then they kiss again.

Now with Gabriel who not too long ago saw Caleb off who back to the capital and is now throwing pebbles at the window of Jessica's room. After thirty minutes of throwing pebbles the yard was running out of pebbles, so he decides to fly up to the window and knock on it. Still, no response Gabriel burns the locks on the door and hovers into the room to see a Jessica sound asleep. Gabriel smiles at his sleeping princess as he brushes some of her fiery red hair from her face. Jessica begins to open her eyes revealing her emerald green eyes. "Good morning beautiful," Gabriel says.

Jessica sits up as she analyzes Gabriel. Then she slaps him as she barks, "You piece of shit! You just left me!"

Gabriel nods his head in understanding as then he asks, "So, do you want to pick up where we left off?"

Tears stream down Jessica's cheeks as she says, "You, asshole. Of course, I do." Then Gabriel nods and picks Jessica up bridal style and flies out the window and into the sunset.

Aria now is walking up the steps to James room to talk to him. She opens the door to find Veyra and James in bed. She looks at him then turns around leaves
