Amelia was near the sea, her friend Kirrian near her: "Two years..."
The mental voice of the wolf: "What are you thinking?"
Amelia smiled her: "Well, Kirrian, in these two years Xel-kun and Zelas-sama teached me the archery, the black magic..." her blue eyes darkened "and using the sword! They didn't permit to go out, to see my friends for two years. It's a long time, you know..."
"I know but they were beautiful years and it's normal they want you knew defend yourself. After all Juouu-sama considers you the only weak spot of his juu-shinkan"
Amelia smiled as often happened when she thought to Xelloss, her eyes shined of light and she hugged the wolf: "I love him so much, you know!"
A mocking but amused voice asked behind her: "Ame-chan, you're hugging another male, must I become jealous?"
She glanced up and her heart beat faster and she ran clinging to him: "I'm so happy, you're come back!"
The trickster priest smiled truly seeing that beautiful young woman embracing him: "I'm happy, too but I've been away only a week! Come with me, Juouu-sama wanted speak us!" and they went towards the castle that was her home for two years.
The ex-princess of Saylun was grown in that years, she was taller and her wonderful black hairs were longer, she didn't seem similar to her sister but to a some sort of dark angel. She had on a blue outfit with defense spells more powerful than those on her old white outfit. Her blue eyes were shining of joy and a strange innocence but they had a new thoughtfulness in them and she was less tempestuous... Xelloss was observing those changes with interest but he guessed that other changes would be soon arrived.
Amelia was chattering about all and nothing when noted her mate was strangely distracted: "Is there a problem?" her voice seemed worried.
He shook his head: "Ame-chan, would you like come with me the next time?"
She fixed him starry-eyed then moped: "But Xelas-sama..."
They were in front of the throne room and the big door opened showing a skinned beautiful woman: "I agreed but you must be careful and obeying him!"
She was so happy that did a half pass of dance and the other woman that wasn't a woman reprimanded: "You must improve your self-control!"
Amelia blushed and calmed, she heard that sentence almost every day but sometimes she heard adding something about that was one of her best sides.
The Greater Beast smiled: "Well, I didn't want speak you about this but I want do you a proposal."
"What?"
"Would you become a mazoku?"
Amelia and Xelloss shouted: "WHAT?"
Xelas seemed a little upset: "Please, don't shout, my hearing is perfect even for a wolf. Amelia, you're human and your immortality pact with Xelloss is temporary, you know."
Her priest interjected: "Sorry, Juouu-sama but Amelia can't become it, we eat the bad human feelings, too and she's fundamentally a kind girl"
Her smile was mysterious: "Do you want she died a day or another?"
His face darkened, as he understood the motifs of his boss. He already knew he would be gone mad when she was died. He was so. He was almost impossible as for every other mazoku, that fell in love but when happened he fell hard.
Amelia observed the change as it concerned another person and saw the sadness in his eyes when Xelas mentioned her death.
"Well, Amelia, I want only you think about it, all right!"
She nodded but when they went out: "Oh Xel-kun, what must I do?"
"This is your decision, not mine!" his voice was unusually harsh and she cringed. When Xelloss noted she seemed upset smiled her asking forgiving him and added: "I don't know what's the best solution. A demon is powerful, immortal but he eat the bad human feeling!"
She was worried: "Is it necessarily evil?"
He shook his head: "No, but it has a different concept of good and evil!"
She smiled him: "Thanks but... if I'll become really a mazoku will be after my friends will be disappeared. There are stuffs I don't understand about you. Maybe becoming it..."
He giggled than laughed fully and she pouted: "WHAT now?"
He managed to answer between the laughs: "Well, it's the first time I hear a person that wants become a demon only because she wants understand them. It's surprising!"
She flushed laughing: "I'm a surprising girl!"
He stopped to laugh and she watched him puzzled: "Why did you stop to laugh?"
He smiled and kissed her: "You're a surprising person and I love you!"
She returned the kiss: "I love you, too!"
He had a sly grin and phased in their room, she watched him surprised: "Mustn't we leave the castle?"
He started again kissing her and mentally: "We'll left later, I didn't give you my welcome!"
Her eyes shined of brightness: "Ehm, Xel-kun... You left, I would need give you my welcome!"
He started to undress her, kissing her breast with tenderness: "It's not really important, who must give his welcome!"
Amelia giggled then they was too much taken even for think...
In another place
Dynast seemed strangely worried, he didn't like what his spies referred him about the trickster priest of the Greater Beast and the ex-princess of Saylun: "Are you sure, they live together?"
The servant nodded afraid and his master: "Good job, go away!"
It obeyed immediately while Negyf: "I told you his behavior was strange. Amelia is a cute girl, overall!"
His superior: "Yes, she must be mine or dead, Xelas can't have to her disposal that power!"
"How you wish, my sir!" and Negyf disappeared
Dynast glanced up the northern pole sky: "Ah, Hellmaster, you was crazy!" and laughed.
