"S-so you get what I am trying to say, right?" The once brave and fearless soldier queen was now fidgeting like an innocent maiden in front of a teenager unable to handle the situation she was in.
Colleen was not a naive virgin who was new to this, her husband and palace walls knew how bold and loud she was in bed. However, the current situation was new to her. For some unknown reason, this was harder than talking about birds and bees with her son, daughter, granddaughters, and grandniece. She could not put her finger on why this was as such.
"No!" Wyatt exclaimed with heavy emotion almost scaring Colleen out of her skin. He then fearlessly took her soft hands into his firm grasp under the shocked gaze of Colleen and said, "I don"t understand. Many tribes do it so why can"t we? I don"t see the problem here. Colleen, I need you—r help. There is n.o.body I can turn to."
Colleen who practiced the glacier rule was sensitive to Wyatt"s warmth that flowed through his hand to hers. Her heart was in a trance. While every fiber of her being was screaming this was wrong still she could not bring herself to withdraw her hands from Wyatt"s hands. It has been ages since she felt this feeling, the sense of antic.i.p.ation stirred by the craving for the forbidden.
On the surface, Colleen"s expression looked like she was confused and struggling but inside she was frozen, she was not conflicted just savoring the feeling. At her age, such feelings were very rare. It was not cheating until she acted on these feelings so she hoped that this second would be longer so she could cherish this feeling of youth longer.
Right now, Colleen felt as if she was back in her teenage years in the presence of her crush and they were the center of the myriad realms. She regretted that this moment had to come to an end she had to awaken to the reality and her responsibilities.
"Wyatt, I cannot help you but I will arrange someone who can," Colleen whispered while slowly freeing her hands from Wyatt"s grasp. However, hearing her Wyatt clutched onto her hands tighter and moved closer to her maintaining eye contact.
"So close." Colleen thought and instinctively wanted to take a step back but the look of a lost puppy in Wyatt"s eyes had her stunned. Her feeling overpowered her instincts. So she did not move back and began to lose herself in the depths of Wyatt"s eyes. She wanted to help him however she could not, this feeling was Sin.
Colleen no longer believed that It was not cheating until she acted on these feelings but began to think that these feelings in her heart were equal to emotional gratification which was indeed cheating. She could not do this to her granddaughters above all she could not do this to her loving husband. Knowing that she could not bring herself to do what needed to be done while looking into Wyatt"s eye, even if it meant hurting Wyatt she had to do it. Resolving herself, Colleen turned her face breaking the eye contact with Wyatt—
*Tremble* *Tremble*
"What was that?" Wyatt let go of Colleen"s hands and immediately used his soul pupils to locate the source of the disturbance causing the tremors in the towers and surrounding infrastructure.
"Enemy Attack?" Colleen said in alert as her divine sense scanned the skies of the barren land and area around her in search of the tremors as the tremors continued to get frequent.
"No, it is coming from below," Wyatt said as his soul pupils pinpointed that the origin of the tremors was coming from the ground, the bas.e.m.e.nt of the central tower.
Knowing that the blood rock cave gate dungeon was located underneath the tower, Wyatt wondered if the tremors might be connected to it. Then thought it was a dungeon break. However, the Blood Rock Cave Gate dungeon was not a normal gate dungeon but a dungeon seal. So a dungeon break was not possible, unless—
Thinking of this Wyatt rushed toward the bas.e.m.e.nt, and Colleen followed him closely. Though delayed she too pinpointed that the tremors were coming from the bas.e.m.e.nt of the tower. Considering that this was Wyatt"s turf, she chose to let him act and not intervene until needed.
If it were some other time, Wyatt would have stopped Colleen from following him to the bas.e.m.e.nt in order not to reveal the blood rule stone mine that he was monopolizing. However. times were different now he might need the help of Colleen"s glacier rule mastery.
Soon they arrived in front of the huge vault door, without hesitation Wyatt broke through and headed straight to the secret pa.s.sage to the gate of the Blood Rock Cave gate dungeon.
"Let us head in, be careful," Wyatt warned Colleen seeing the dungeon gate open. Wyatt morphed his shape to that of a middle-aged man before rushing into the dungeon gate as Colleen followed behind him.
Colleen was not surprised to find the Blood Rock Cave Gate dungeon underneath the central tower, the royal family was aware of this. They figured, based on his relationship with the Blood Supreme they thought Wyatt was doing this to guard the dungeon seal. However, stepping into the dungeon Colleen looked at the cave walls intently and then at Wyatt"s back.
"You are alive," Wyatt blurted looking at Bloodette who was waiting for them at the entrance. He figured she came feeling the two unknown energy signatures enter the dungeon seal with her connection to the seal.
"Who are you?" Bloodette asked Wyatt in alert, she was expecting the members of the TSR adventure guild to arrive not an unknown card master and a card demiG.o.d. She did not have many memories of things that led to her exploding her body so when two strangers entered her dungeon instead of the faces she was familiar with she could not help but get on guard.
