Chapter 271: A perfect blend of Inferno and Frost Phoenix bloodlines
"!!!"
Those seductive words were enough to ignite a spark within Eli, propelling him forward.
"~Hmm~"
Mia's eyes widened in a delightful surprise, never anticipating the day Eli would press his lips against hers..... even if it was just a gentle peck.
Their lips met, and at that moment, Eli and Mia closed their eyes. The warmth exchanged in that kiss travelled through their bodies, sending a delightful shiver down their spines.
As they opened their eyes, Eli's gaze sparkled with blue crystal clarity, and Mia's eyes held a momentarily red-yellow glint before settling into a pool of affection. Yet, the intricacies of eye colour were the least of their concerns at that moment.
Eli, feeling a surge of tenderness, rubbed his nose against hers, a sweet and sensual gesture that deepened the connection between them.... as if he was happy.
Mia's lips trembled with happiness as if she wanted to burst into laughter and announce to the world that Eli had kissed her.
"Mia" Eli's voice sounded, carrying a mixture of uncertainty and desire.
"Hmm?" Mia, lost in a cloud of bliss, responded with a gentle hum.
"W-What if....I mean What if--"
Mia delicately placed her finger on his lips, silencing his words. She shook her head, a blissful smile gracing her lips, "My Big Brother.... Kiss me" she whispered, her face taking on a deeper shade of crimson.
"???" Eli squinted his eyes.
Seeing Eli's puzzled expression, Mia continued with a sultry undertone, "I Love You with my whole heart..... And this belongs to only you until the end of my life.... My lovely Asher.... No matter what".
"....." Eli's eyes turned red, 'Does s-she know...?' he thought with a broken heart.
"~Ashy~" Mia whispered, her voice laden with desire and love, not wanting to delve into complicated thoughts. Her mind was consumed by one simple truth... her love for Eli.
"~Hmm~" Eli kissed her again, this time with a touch of intensity, savouring the sweetness of the moment and letting the unwanted thoughts go away.
Mia opened her eyes, meeting the gaze of her brother, who, despite the passionate moment, was consciously restraining himself from deepening the kiss.
'Heheh...' A playful giggle resonated within Mia as she observed her brother, recognizing the effort he was putting in to avoid going too far and possibly causing her discomfort.
'I know, brother.... I know everything' she thought, her eyes flickering between red-yellow slits and black-white slits, hinting at the complexities of emotions she was going through.
Mia, unlike Scarlett, who was born with only one bloodline, Inferno..... Mia was a Hybrid: a perfect blend of both Inferno and Frost.
It was the wish of Mariel's parents' wish, the birth of a hybrid into their family. Mia's bloodline contained the rare combination of both Inferno and Frost Phoenix.
This uniqueness, however, came with its own challenges. Mariel's parents, driven by her obsession with power and fear of her parents testing Mia as an experimental subject.... Mairel took their lives.
Despite the tragic circumstances surrounding her birth, Mia was initially a naive child who simply desired love and acceptance from those around her..... This changed when she turned seven.
Mia didn't awaken her soul crystal at the expected age of seven. The harsh reality hit her with the force of a storm. Those who once showered her with love and attention suddenly distanced themselves, now focusing their affections on Scarlett. Mia's attempts to approach them were met with polite nods, a superficial acknowledgement, all because of her status as the Duchess's daughter.
Feeling like nothing to anyone, even her mother being preoccupied with other matters, Mia was devastated..... Scarlett tried to console and encourage her, but as a child, Mia couldn't help but perceive it as pity and haughtiness.
Her father and brother became her pillars of support, the only ones who didn't judge her based on her awakened powers. In their eyes, Mia was precious, regardless of her bloodline abilities.
She cherished having a brother and father in her life. They were her pillars of support, providing love and warmth.....
However, a harsh reality, hidden in the shadows, soon revealed itself.
/
"At least she would be useful as a breed for me"
/
These words, uttered by her father during a secretive conversation with other mothers, echoed in her ears.
Her world shattered into irreparable pieces... leaving her broken. She began questioning everything, even doubting the authenticity of her brother's love, wondering if it was merely a 'facade' to obtain something from her.
Yet....Amidst this turmoil, another reality, genuine and unwavering, surfaced.
/
"My Little sister is the best in the world.... Even if I am Soulless, I will always protect my sister..... even if it costs my life"
/
These words breathed colour and vibrancy into her life, serving as the catalyst for her awakening.
'I want to protect him and earn his love more'
Her heartfelt wish resonated with the dormant Inferno and Frost blood within her. The unawakened soul crystal ignited, granting her powers not limited to one element but embracing both fire and darkness.
Her brother witnessed her awakening, devoid of any jealousy or envy; instead, he radiated happiness and pride, as if he, too, had awakened. At that moment, her broken world was mended by her only brother.
Happiness enveloped her; her brother's love was enough to elevate her above the clouds. She longed for him to see her as more than just a sister..... desiring the same affection he bestowed upon her big sister.
But before she could pursue this desire, a pressing duty awaited....she had to confront and eliminate her father.
Mia later came to the realization that her father had been deceiving her, putting on an act in front of her while secretly causing harm to her beloved brother. Fueled by a desire to protect him, she felt the need to acquire power. For the first time, she approached her mother, asking to be taught everything.
She gained insights into the true nature of every being, learning about their disgusting faces and hidden motives. Her resolve solidified..... she wanted to eliminate anyone who dared to hurt her brother.
The intense desire to torment them with her black flames, witnessing their pain, became a source of solace for her restless soul. Only through such retribution did she find a semblance of calm.
However, she was reluctant to reveal her true self, particularly to her brother. As a result, she concealed her authentic nature, presenting herself to others as a naive and innocent girl.
While in Phoenix territory, she received heartbreaking news..... the village where her brother was living had been destroyed by monsters. She lost her only pillar, and at that moment, she truly felt that life wasn't worth living.
If not for Scarlett's unwavering support, Mia might have succumbed to despair and possibly died. She kept moving forward because Scarlett assured her that he was alive and she would undoubtedly find him.
With a glimmer of hope, she pressed on, but in her heart, she was counting her days. Then, a miracle occurred when she spotted a man who bore a striking resemblance to her brother standing in front of a royal restaurant.
Her life regained colour with his mere presence, even if he were to forget about her. She was determined not to let him slip away again, not wanting to experience the same profound hopelessness.
Due to Zera who secretly heard about everything when Eli told his past to Lilith, Adriana, and Scylla; Mia was aware that her brother had not only killed their father but also the entire village. However, she refrained from confronting Eli... not because she didn't want to make him sad or anything....
because the mere thought of him pondering how to not hurt her feelings every time.....sent shivers of excitement down her spine.
Yes, this was how much she twisted.... She wanted him to think about her every time.
She was well aware that her actions were questionable, she couldn't deny that her brother, Eli, had never crossed any boundaries with her. Even after four years, during their initial encounter, he merely attempted to distance himself from her.....unlike his interactions with their big sister, Scarlett.
She felt irritated by his apparent cowardice, but while keeping up her facade, she allowed Eli to proceed at his own pace.... Let him think about her every time; Her goal was to make him feel increasingly guilty and gradually succumb to her advances.... slowly grasp him in her hands and then seduce him to make love with her.
The mere thought of having his seeds within her womb sent shivers of anticipation through her, a tingling sensation of forbidden ecstasy coursing through her veins.
Eli, unaware of her true thoughts, gently pulled away from her, observing the flush on her crimson face.
"~ha~"
Mia panted heavily, inwardly screaming, 'Oh, Fuck!!' as she felt her lower lips drenching with heavenly nectar.
'L-Let's push him more!' she thought. She wanted to do more and experience even greater pleasure on his lips.
"As~shy~" Mia sensually pulled the side of the robe, revealing her right breast.
"Ba-Dump, Ba-Dump"
Her heart raced wildly. Even though she initiated this, embarrassment lingered beneath the surface... Even if she hid her twisted personality she was still a little girl in front of the man she loves.
Eli's gaze fixed on her pink nipple, small pink areola, and beautiful breast.
'Rustle, Rustle'
The hero, formerly bound by the towel, finally broke free, and,
'Dang'
Mia felt a pulsating sensation tapping on her stomach. Glancing down, she was met with,
"Huh?"
Her eyes froze as she stared at the vigorous thing that was pulsating and twitching crazily.
Seeing her expression, Eli chuckled and was about to tease her when,
'Knock, Knock'
"Mia, I know your brother is inside. Open the door!!"
'FUCK!' Eli clicked his tongue and immediately put on his dress. He also adjusted Mia's dress, who was frozen in time.
"I hope you like my gift, Little Mia" Eli said as he jumped out of the window.
"Mia! If you are not going to open, then..." Aadya threatened as she took out the spare key and opened the door.
'Thud'
"Mia?" Aadya frowned when she saw Mia wearing a bathrobe, her mouth wide open in shock.
"Mia??" Aadya shook her body.
"H-Huh?" Mia snapped out of her daze and looked around the room. Searching for her brother and realizing he had already left, she immediately covered her red face while muttering,
"B-Big brother...i-i--i-s reallllyyy B-Big" A smoke came out of her head.
"What?" Aadya looked at her with a puzzled expression, 'What is she talking about?' As she was about to look around, she saw,
"!!!!"
She saw pictures pasted on the wall..... not just one, but every inch of the wall was covered with photos.
"W-What the....?" Aadya was taken aback. She hadn't seen these pictures on the wall before.
"Asher Eli" she muttered when she realized every image was of Eli from childhood until now.
'Gulp'
Swallowing her dry throat, she glanced at Mia, who was still muttering 'Big, Big, Big....'.
'She is crazy....Am I going to become l-like th-this?' Aadya thought as she slowly backed off. She swears herself inwardly that she will never become like Mia.
'Thud'
Hearing the closing sound, Mia suddenly remembered her brother's words.
She instantly went to the mirror and looked at her ponytail; her eyes widened.....
"Wait! What's this?" Mia exclaimed when she noticed something sparkling in her hair. She carefully unravelled her ponytail and discovered a beautiful red-yellow feather with a stylish peacock feather-style design attached to it.
As she held the feather delicately, Mia couldn't help but notice its extraordinary features. The vibrant hues of red and yellow seemed to dance in harmony, creating an ethereal glow. The feather was lightweight yet resilient, exuding warmth and gentle feelings.
Examining the intricate patterns on the feather, Mia recognized the unmistakable symbols associated with the Inferno Phoenix..... However, there was something else that made it familiar because it emitted white crystal-like sparkles, and when she tried to touch those sparkles... novelbuddy.cσ๓
"Ouch" Mia felt a stinging sensation as she rubbed her frozen fingertips....
"Frost!" Mia's eyes glittered with realization. The feather wasn't just a representation of the Phoenix; it also carried the essence of Frost, the elemental counterpart. The coexistence of both fiery and frosty elements in the feather mirrored the dual nature within Mia herself... a perfect blend of Inferno and Frost Phoenix bloodlines.
