Chapter 168
Deckard
The moment I ser Amica–though only a light blur at first–I think it’s another dream. I’ve been having a lot of those lately, illusions crafted by a desperate mini. But then she touches me, and gods. I feel it. Her touch is real. It’s her My Amica. Here with me, on the fleshi
My heart, weak and worn as it is, nearly gives out from the jolt of emotion that shoots through me. It’s almost enough to kill me–bon schat’s left to kill in a body already this broken! 1 am a shell of the man I once was too weak to escape the grasp of the witch who holds me here.
Bai now. Amica is here
Everything that happens after our reunion fades into a muffled blur, Voices come and go, but I can’t focus on them. All I feel is her–her presence, her warmth, her soul tethered to mine. Her touch sparks something inside me, something that had been fading. My heart, fragile and failing, bears with new purpose. For her.
Even without Freya’s recomending Amicas my cure, just the sound of her name is reason enough to stay alive. To keep fighting
The voices around us continue to exchange work–about healing, about price, about consequences. But I can’t bring myself to care. I’ve made peace with the cost. As long as I’m breathing, as long as she’s near, I know I’ll find the strength to endure
Then, after some shifting and motion, I feel myself lowered onto something soft–cool fabric, warm light–and know I’ve been placed on a bed. I sink into it, my body barely able to hold its shape, but my mind clings to the one truth that matters: She found me.
After that, I fall into an endless slumber. The next time my eyes open, the first thing I see is Amica, wrapped around me. My heart pounds with joy he’s real. 1 glance around the room and immediately notice that it’s different from where I was before
The air smells of fresh mint and warm candle wax. It’s calm here.
1 look back at her–my Amica–sleeping soundly, her arms still locked around me. Even in her rest, there’s a crease of worry on her forehead. She must have been through hell to get here. I lift my hand gently to her chin, needing to feel her softness again. My mate. My Luna. My everything
And then I realize something
I feel better
The burning pain that has tormented me for days–weeks, maybe–is gone. I no longer feel like I’m being consumed from within. The fever that clung to my bones has faded. I’m still weak, yes, but.. I’m not dying anymore.
I can move. I can breathe without feeling like I’m swallowing flames.
All this time—after all the herbs, the potions, the acupuncture and spells–I had no idea that she was the cure all along. Her touch. Her presence.
1 stare at her beautiful face. She lets out a soft shore from exhaustion, and I can’t even begin to imagine what she’s gone through. She came here alone? Through Red Valley!
I lean forward slowly, careful not to wake her, and press my lips gently to hers
Her eyes open softly, hazy with sleep at first, then widening with a in relief and overwhelming joy.
“Deckard You you’re awake” she gasps, then immediately presses her lips to mine in a kiss that steals the breath from my lungs.
She pulls back just enough to press her hand against my cheek and then to my neck, checking my temperature with gentleness
“Your temperature, it’s better now. How do you feel, my love?” –
I exhale slowly, my hand reaching up to cover hers. “Tim better now that you’re here, Amica,” I whisper. “I missed you so much… so passing day became turture without you. And all this time, Lalidn’t know.. you were the cure to iny sickness.”

voice cracks slightly as I look into her eyes—those eyes I’ve dreamt of endlessly
“Amica. I didn’t mean to leave you alone. I went to battle with a broken heart–driven by i
y the need to avenge the death of our baby…, and to make
things right between us. To come back bume, ask you to be my wife, and finally put all our pain behind us.”
I was afraid. Afraid to return. Afraid that when I did, you would tell me that your heart had moved on because I promised to let you go if you wanted. I kept imagining you rejecting me. and the thought of that of living without you–made life feel like meaningless.”
I draw her closer, speaking from my i

And I’ve been starving for it too.
I wrap my arms around her, pulling her close. The taste of her, to feel her warmth
My hands stroll down to her thighs as I return her kiss, feeling the softness of her skin beneath my fingertips. I press her borty against heat between us rising as her soft moan escapes into my mouth–gods, how I missed my woman.
Every nerve in my body comes alive with the feel of her–her scent, her cold, her presence. My lips kiss from her mouth to her neck, slowl her collarbone. The silk nightgown she wears brushes easily aside, revealing her full breasts, and I breathe in deeply, unoring the moment.
“I missed you so much,” I whisper against her skin, the words barely holding back the emotions s

in my chest.
She moans again, then gently pushes against me with hesitant hands. “I don’t want to hurt you you’re just starting to get better”
I look into her eyes and place a soft kiss on her lips. “Oh baby. I want this. I want you”
“I need this too.” the whispers back, her breath catching mid–kiss.
We both chuckle lightly, like lovers who’ve found each other after being lost for too long. Her fingers trail down to my shirt, undoing the buttons slowly, reverently. She plants kisses across my chest,
Amica slowly took off the buttons on my shirt and kissed my neck down to my chest, paying attention to my nipples, she played her tongue around it for a few seconds before proceeding down to my crouch area.
She slowly unzips my trousers and cases them off, her fingers moving so smoothly that they send shivers across my skin.
Now, she has succeeded in stripping off all my clothes. I am exposed before her, naked, vulnerable, yet completely at ease in her presence.
My cock is already hard and crect just by her touch. Amica massages me a linle bit before wrapping her tender lips around me. A wave of excitement ran through me just as I felt her lips on me. Cold, perfect, and just teasing the cap with her tongue
