""Now tell me why such big deal with us sitting here and eating in the front whole realm of cultivators?"" Kendra bit on a freshly baked potato. No matter if common or spirit potato she just loved the taste of it. But enhanced potatoes were thousand times stronger in taste and for cultivator like herself it tasted amazing.She slowly closed her eyes while savouring the taste while he looked at her with love in his eyes. ""Marcus told me one thing shortly. He said if I"m not careful, many strong opponents might start making a long line to become yours. hat man foresight was not far. I just came to see those fools thinking about you.""
Kendra slowly opened her eyes looking at him that with worry in his eyes looked at people in surroundings. With a fork, she hit at the nearby gla.s.s and when she saw him turning his gaze towards herself she pointed at him with it. ""Are they more important or am I? Why even staring at them? Did you find someone that caught your eyes?""
She wanted to make a joke but saw seriousness pa.s.sing his eyes. He smiled a fake smile and started playing with green peas inside his plate. The green piece was perfectly cooked without losing its original colour. As she had deep thoughts she kicked him lightly with her foot.
""What is it?"" She smiled at him and small dimples on her cheeks became p.r.o.nounced as her rainbowy eyes slowly turned into silver grey colour.
He smiled back and as he saw her wis.h.i.+ng over her lips to wish off the trace of oil he grabbed her hand and slowly licked tips of it while staring straight into her eyes. ""I need to make sure that everyone knows that you have your life partner. Kendra, it seems I won"t be able to come back for a while and join you on your journey. Please be careful. And do not even think of getting another man.""
She saw him slowly kissing her palm with his soft lips and suddenly for the first time in her life she felt certain shake deep in her soul. ""Cethin, I really love you. A few years ago I was already grown up in a child"s body, but nevertheless it was somehow like I could completely trust you, no matter what. I will continue doing so. But Cethin, I am a person as well. A jealous one on top of it. If I see some people getting too close to you, no matter if family, friends or acquaintances I might take it wrong. You might not appear here but I might suddenly appear in the upper region. If I see you with anyone who is not your mom or dad getting too near to your body, I might just blow in rage and you will lose your only chance. My mind is to narrow and my heart too small to give second chances.""
Her words were carried straight to him and he knew that she really meant that. She wouldn"t forgive him even for one bit. He shook his head as he remembered the bothersome people in his family right now and sighed. ""I promise. No matter what you are my only partner and the only person that is eligible to get near my body.""
Kendra silently looked at him while she could feel strange nervosity appearing for a tiny second. See narrowed her eyes and pulled his hand. She planted her kiss on his palm as well but then started writing strange things on his hands. Runes over runes appeared around his body and suddenly a thin s.h.i.+eld appeared around him.
She let go of his hand slowly and explained. ""This is not a protection s.h.i.+eld. This s.h.i.+eld is to show me if you kept your promise. On end, it will be in your power and will if you protect yourself from other people or not. the moment you willingly let woman or man hug you I will know. Only your own parents won"t have str in the array. Anyone else... is forbidden... That is all I have to say.""
He could feel the power around him and then suddenly disappeared. ""So it will be activated only if someone who is not my own bloodline touches me?""
She shook her head. ""Wrong. Anyone except your parents is forbidden to touch you. It"s not connected to bloodline then to own 50/50 DNA you own form both parents. Don"t worry about it. I do not accept any sisters, cousins or similar near you as well.""
Looking at her jealous pout he chuckled. ""Fine, I promise. Accept my parents" no one else will be given the right to touch me. Now try the peppers, did cook them properly?""
What they did before appearing again is to cook in her s.p.a.ce. She made a small house near her parents home on the nearby mountain where they could see the whole city but at the same time have their own privacy.
With a smile, she bit on the paper and smiled. ""Bit overcooked but tasty. Well done with seasonings. I am happy you learned how to cook. One day when we have children and I am busy with building the worlds you might as well stay at home and cook for kids.""
He chuckled but then rose his eyes that suddenly turned dark purple. ""You already plan kids? Hmmmm. I still didn"t go that way so soon. Most of Eternals have only one child after a long time, but with you everything is possible.""
Realizing that she spoke too much a blush appeared on her face and she felt suddenly shy. ""Cough, drink your juice now. We can talk about that after we take care of these things. We have eternity to think about kids. Now eat... eat... eat..."" In her bashfulness, she started filling his plate with this and that and then taking whole piece of meat and eating it with gusto.
He chuckled and started gobbling everything she put into his plate. Soon all the plates on the table were empty and disappeared. Soon a plate with fruits appeared and s.h.i.+ny juice inside their gla.s.ses.
She slowly picked one piece of the grape and slowly put into his mouth with a big smile. The refres.h.i.+ng taste of grape juice exploded in his mouth and made his eyes s.h.i.+ne even stronger purple and stared at her deeper, making her pink cheeks getting another layer of colour.
He slowly rose the strawberry and when he was about to put it into her lips he stopped. He saw her slightly open mouth to bit strawberry. He quickly lowered the strawberry, grabbed gently her chin and with soft motion slowly, slowly planted his lips on hers...
