A World Forgotten

The God in My Window

    As soon as the window shuts Reland turns to face me smirking.

"You like her~"

My face is the shade of a renthra, "Shut it, you overgrown slahn!"

He gasps and dramatically falls back onto my bed with one hand on his forehead and the other on his chest, "You've wounded me, I cannot go on."

"Oh well, guess I get your shares for dinner." I say as I open the door, he sits bolt up right.

"You wouldn't dare." His eyes narrow.

"Watch me." I run out of the cabin, past Jalence and into Xyro, I fall onto my butt. "Sorry Xyro.." I say sheepishly.

He chuckles, "It's fine." He holds his hand out to help me up. We make our way over to the fire, I sit next to Zaren and rest my head on his shoulder.

"Sorry, I- I didn't mean to-"

"It's fine Sy, I just don't want to see you hurt." He says in a comforting tone while rubbing my back.

I close my eyes leaning into his embrace. Xyro walks over kissing his forehead, Zaren turns to the color of as red as I was earlier, I giggle at his embarrassment. "You look like a renthra."

Ralend smirks and walks by us whispering into my ear, "Says the one who wants to kiss the elf."

My eyes grow wide and I fall off the log backwards. "Zaren!" I had moved my hands to cover my face to hide my face meaning I didn't use them to catch myself, but luckily for me Jalence caught me. "Thanks Jale." I say moving my hands away from my face to sit up-right.

"Yeah, yeah. Zaren aren't you the one dating a god?" Jalence chuckles.

"Wha-" Zaren starts to stutter. Ralend turns around to high-five Jalence. Xyro just watched the entire thing unfold from the log across the fire trying to keep from laughing. I get off Zaren and drag him over to Xyro pushing him forth. He lands on his lap a blushing mess.

"Much better, don't you think boys?" I ask smirking to myself.

"Mhm." Jale nods while Ralend laughs his ass off.

The rest of the night is spent laughing and playing around until it was time to retire for the night and everyone returned to their respective residences. I walk into my own to see a young man sitting on the window sill facing me, I ready my dagger.

"Sheith it lady." The man tells who I'm assuming to be me his eyes bearing holes in my skull, I lower the dagger onto the wardrobe next to me. His voice was rough but and almost feminine.

"Who are you, and what business do you have here?" My voice calm, and sharp.

"That isn't of your concern at the moment, shouldn't you be wondering how a god got into your bedroom." That's when I noticed the mark of the gods on his forehead, his hair was longer, silver, and his eyes the color of the night sky just after a full moon. He was tall, really tall. 'He has a point, but how did he get past the Kunras?' A million thoughts raced through my mind. He seemed to notice my distress and appeared behind me then everything went black.
