sounds of lightning and stars

When I got back to the room with Emily and everyone else Elise was already back in the arena

It was always nice watching her fight the way she skated around her opponent the way she moves her body to get out off the paths of attacks to deliver her own it was all so beautiful and elegant compared to her I fight like a wild animal

It didn't take long for her to defeat her opponent and return to the room after letting her sit down and congratulating her I handed a snack I thought she would like to keep her energy up after taking a bite of the snack she made a cute face making me crack a smile she is so serious most of the time it makes it nice when she puts her mask away

We continued watching the fights for about a hour until it was my turn again this time I had two opponents one was a male human while the other was a female dwarve they were fairly strong and there teamwork was also excellent but once i disrupted there rhythm it didn't take long for me to win When I got back to the room we continued watching the arena there was only one fight left after which both are cards lit up

Elise and I looked at one another with a smile " well I guess its time " I said to her as she smirks " yeah and you know your punishment will continue when I win" I smirked as well " we'll see about that "

I leaned towards her giving her a kiss before we both got up as Elise handed Emily to Amelia " don't go over board you two " she said you two but she stared at me the whole time she was talking Emily also gave us a look she wasn't happy that we would be fighting each other we just smiled at her before i grabbed Elise's hand teleporting us to the arena

I let go of Elise's hand and walked a little bit away as the colorful Dwarve popped out

" due to the number of participants the last fight will be a- " he didn't finish what he said because another dwarve popped out and whispered in his ear before disappearing back into the ground

The colorful Dwarve coughed before starting to speak again " because of a forfeit the final fight will be a one v one please give them a round of cheer for their bravery and skill " Elise and I looked at each other a bit confused as the crowd cheered as the cheers died down the dwarve shoed me to the other side of the arena I shrugged before walking over there

" begin " the dwarve said once I was in position " so how do y-" i was cut off when I felt a sudden chill I quickly dodged to the side as a solid slab of ice shot out of a magic circle on the ground I also noticed the ground get more muddy as I tried moving away from the attack

I looked at Elise hurt " wow " she smiled back at me " we are fighting my love " after she said that she slashed her spear twice making two arcs of water in the air before a magic circle appeared freezing the arcs and sending them flying towards me with great speed whistling through the air

' fuck woman are you trying to kill me ' I thought as I struggled to dodge the attack because of the mud she made I wasn't able to get out of the way in time so I closed my eyes and teleported behind Elise hoping to catch her off guard but when I appeared I instantly started to freeze so I was able to move out of the way of another attack which sent me flying a couple feet away

" not quick enough my love " looking up I saw Elise smirking at me as a mini freezing field circled around her freeze everything inside of it ' well that's new ' I thought as I smiled at her " we'll see how long you're advantage last " as I stopped talking hit my Gauntlets together allowing my armor to spread when that was done I used lightning and gravity to make me float so I wouldn't have to deal with any unnecessary terrain for the final piece icarus flew onto my back attaching herself to me with her talons

When she got into place the area around started to heat to a great degree making even the ground beneath me turn into slag Elise and I stared at each other for a before icarus flapped her wings hard shooting me at Elise too quick to track thanks to my gravity the ground behind turned to lava leaving a trail as I flew at her

Elise built a line of ice wall to block me but right before I crashed through the first one i teleported behind Elise again I was meet with a another slash and slab of ice but this time they were weakened greatly thanks to icarus so I crushed them easily as I continued towards Elise

A second even stronger freezing field appeared as I threw a colorfully flaming lightning coated punch at Elise my eyes went wide the field was so strong it could even block icarus's flames but that wasn't why I was shocked it was because I actually broke threw landing a solid punch on Elise sending flying even skidding on the ground a couple times before slamming into the arena wall causing it to crack

I ran towards Elise as the crowd cheered buy it wasn't to attack her ' why did she let me hit ' when i reached Elise she sat with her back against the arena wall she didn't seem to have anything broken but there was definitely some internal injuries I put my ear two her chest and let out a sigh of relief when I heard her remaining heart beating ok

I looked at Elise not sure what to say" I'm sor-" I was cut off as Elise kissed me deeply I felt regret as I tasted her blood through our kiss " I'll be fine my love I did it on purpose enjoy your victory " she whispered after our kiss then winked " if you feel so bad about you can make me feel better later " she didn't wait for my reply as she gathered her strength to state she surrenders loud enough for everyone to hear

The crowd cheered as Elise sank into the now ground smiling I keep looking at her until she disappeared full only then did I snap out of my trance and did my best to embrace my victory because I knew Elise would be mad if I didn't after what she did

After the colorful Dwarve popped out of the ground and gave his closing speech while congratulating me I was only really half listening to him wanting to rush out off the arena ' I think he said something about the dwarve king inviting me to the palace for my reward in a couple days ' I looked up towards the king's room

Whether speech was done I walked out of the arena waving to the crowd as they cheered as soon as I was out of sight I teleported to Elise who was back in the room already healing

I ignored the few dirty looks I got especially from Amelia as I walked towards Elise in slight hurry when I got to her I looked at her for a sec before leaning down to hug her tight while giving her a kiss we stayed embraced for a minute

" why did you do that to her " Amelia said pissed I turned towards her also angry but not really at her I opened my mouth to say something but Elise cut me off " you two please don't fight over this it was my decision let just move on and enjoy the rest of our day" Amelia huffed looking away as I looked towards Elise and nodded

We enjoyed going around the coliseum taking in the sights while looking at all the stalls around when the sun started to set we all got back on icarus to go home When we landed a maid welcomed us I told her to bring dinner to my room as I carried Elise there so she can rest

A little bit later Elise and I sat on the bed in our room eating when we were done eating I looked at Elise opening my mouth to say something but Elise kissed me " I'm sorry "she said breaking the kiss " I'm sorry too" we started to kiss again more passionately for a few minutes when Elise started touching me " are you sure " I asked her to make sure " she nodded " I'll be fine and I want it too" She didn't need to say more as I gently helped her get undressed

I took in the sight of Elise on the bed naked with her legs spread waiting for a moment before getting on top of her we only made love once because I didn't want to hurt her
