The Eternal Bound

"WOAH!"

Elyna laughed, seeing Triqi pressing her face against the plane window while gazing in awe at the scenery below them. They had deliberately taken the morning flight because they wanted Triqi to enjoy her 'morning' now.

Elyna was leaning coquettishly on her husband's broad chest with half-asleep eyes. Elyna usually slept during the morning. Val helped her to close her eyes by stroking Elyna's soft hair.

Val looked at Valan, who was busy with his tablet. And as if understanding, Valan got up and kissed Triqi's cheek to create a cute wrinkle on her sweet face.

"Mom's sleepy. Let's play somewhere else, okay?"

Valan pointed at Elyna, who was starting to fall asleep. Triqi nodded in understanding. She took Valan's hand to take her around the plane.

They were boarding a private plane. The large plane was only filled with a few werewolves on guard from the Silver Moon Pack. They bowed slightly when Triqi and Valan passed them.

Triqi, who was overly enthusiastic, approached the glass again. He tugged at Valan's hand, pointing at one of the birds that happened to be quite close to their plane.

"Look! How can that bird fly this high? It won't get carried away by the wind?"

The innocent question provoked Valan to chuckle. He ruffled Triqi's hair gently, making her red lips purse because of it.

"It's not the bird that flies too high, but us who fly quite low, Triqi," Valan explained.

Triqi looked confused, "Why?"

"You want to see the scenery, right? If we fly high, you'll most likely only see clouds. Do you want that?" Valan asked, amused. Triqi immediately shook her head. When else could she see such a beautiful view?

"But, are we allowed to fly this low?" Triqi asked curiously. Valan answered with a smile. It was funny to see the eyes that used to always look sad now full of enthusiasm.

"Who dares to forbid us?" Valan was arrogant, making Triqi roll her eyes in boredom. They were silent, especially when Valan put his arm around Triqi's waist and leaned his head on her narrow shoulder.

Triqi held her twin's hand in return. Silent. Before leaning on Valan's body.

"How could you make me like this?" Triqi asked softly. She wanted to ask since yesterday. But because she was too busy feeling new things, Triqi just remembered to ask it now.

Valan pretended to think. Then he stared at Triqi's beautiful face from a very close distance.

"You love me because we are destined to be together, Triqi. I haven't changed you one bit," Valan teased, to which Triqi replied with a pinch on his stomach.

"You know that's not what I mean! You know, about me suddenly being able to survive under the sun and everything," Triqi muttered at the end. Her eyes watched the expanse of the sea that stretched out there. Triqi was too embarrassed to look at her twin.

Valan smiled. The tight hug on Triqi's waist tightened as Valan's body moved closer.

"I will do anything for your happiness. I told you about this. If I can't make you happy, do I still deserve to be called your future partner?"

Triqi was embarrassed. Her face turned red as she tried to free herself from Valan's embrace. Her eyes looked in all directions before she stuttered and tried to reply.

"Of, of course. I'm sleepy, so I'll... err, go back."

Triqi ran as fast as she could. Leaving Valan laughing at his twin's behavior.

"Cute, just like Mom," Valan muttered as he walked slowly back to the top floor of their plane.

"We're here."

Without waiting for the others to get off first, Triqi immediately ran out of the car. Without getting tired, she stretched her arms to feel the warmth of the sunlight entering her skin. Without burning her skin, of course.

Elyna was the next to come out. Her beautiful smile was visible when she saw Triqi looking happy with her new situation. Val, who was next to her, also didn't forget to smile. They might really be able to fix everything now. Slowly, to the point where they would see that beautiful smile every day.

"Let's go in," Elyna invited while holding Triqi's hand. The child was pensive for a moment before smiling and entering the spacious mansion with a wide smile.

A row of servants greeted them warmly. Elyna invited her two children up to the second floor. Then, she opened one of the doors and pulled her two children in.

The brightly colored room amazed Triqi. She used to only live in monochrome rooms. And now, in front of her was a large room dominated by navy blue and white. The beautiful room also had a large window with a balcony that was provided with seating and a table to relax.

The room was filled with photos of Triqi and Valan in various poses. That room was much livelier than their previous room.

"Do you like it?" Elyna asked hopefully. Triqi nodded happily. She then hugged Elyna tightly.

"Very much. Thank you, Mom," said Triqi sincerely.

Elyna stroked Triqi's back gently. "Thank your Dad too," Elyna told her while shifting her body so that Val could be seen who was watching them silently. Triqi smiled stiffly. Their relationship was still strained since Triqi was suppressed by Val's power at that time.

"Thank you, Dad," she said softly. Val smiled slightly. He walked over to Triqi to stroke her soft hair and then nodded.

Triqi looked up to see her brother, who had only been watching them. Smiling seductively, still hugging Elyna tightly.

"Why do you suddenly want to have a bright room like this? You used to always refuse if I wanted a 'living' room like this, right?"

Valan looked at the room's decoration, which he thought was quite painful for his eyes. He knew that Triqi had wanted to have a room like this for a long time, but it had never been achieved because of Valan. She hated bright colors and interiors with too many things.

"I don't want you to have thoughts of moving rooms just because our tastes are different. As long as you're happy, I'm fine with this room," replied Valan. Triqi smiled in satisfaction, very happy that many of her dreams had come true.

Elyna closed the door to her room as quietly as possible. He looked at Val, who was looking at the moon on their balcony. Alone, with a glass of expensive wine in his hand.

Elyna smiled slightly. His hands wrapped around Val's neck from behind. Val turned to her, trying to cover up something Elyna knew what it was.

"Don't keep drinking it, Val. Drinking too much wine will be bad for your body," advised Elyna as she snatched the wine glass from Val's hand. After storing it in a safe place, Elyna sat next to Val, leaning on her alpha's shoulder. Elyna held Val's hand gently and then began to close her eyes.

Val stroked the soft hair slowly. He looked at Elyna's beautiful face, which never changed, then smiled wryly.

"You didn't even know what a bathroom was before. And now? You're teaching me about what's healthy and what's not," Val said quietly. After a while, Elyna raised her head to see Val.

"I have learned many things from many people. We have been through many things together. Because of that, I know that you are thinking about something right now," said Elyna seriously. Val smiled a smile that made Elyna remember the reason why her husband was alone outside like this.

Elyna held her husband's hand tightly. Wiping it, smiling sincerely.

"You just panicked at that time, Val. Don't blame yourself anymore. I will give Triqi the understanding to stop being hostile to you."

Val smiled slightly. "I'm okay, Elyna."

Elyna shook her head. She looked closely at Val's face. That handsome and firm face looks like it's carrying a lot of burden now. Elyna put their noses together. She closed her eyes to feel Val's warm breath.

"I know it's hard for you to be my mate, Val. They just don't realize how much you love them. Regarding Valan's problem, I'm sure it wasn't on purpose that Tritan's power was passed down to him," said Elyna quietly. Her eyes opened again to look at Val's eyes, which seemed to suck her in. She then took the initiative to kiss Val's lips gently before hugging Val's body.

"We'll find a way. Stay with us, and we'll find a way, Val," Elyna whispered desperately. Val hugged the body tightly, finally responding to Elyna.

"I know. I'm not going anywhere, Elyna. You're my Luna. Whatever happens, you have to stay with me," said Val seriously. He buried his face in the crook of Elyna's neck. Val inhaled the scent of her pheromones, still in a hugging position.

Elyna smiled. "Want to do something as Alpha and Luna?" Elyna offered teasingly. Val nodded, then took Elyna inside while carrying her.

"Of course. You asked for it," answered Val before the sound of a moan became their lullaby that night.
