Chapter 239 Fears And Joy



"Seth wake up, we need to leave" the voice of Irene sounded, and though Seth decided to remain still with eyes closed, he couldn't keep up with the pretense when she began shaking his shoulders.

With a sigh, Seth sat up and looked at Irene whose gaze was on the cave's entrance, and immediately she turned to look at him, Seth captured her lips in a kiss, his hands quick to begin roaming her naked body.

Irene wanted to disengage from the kiss, but Seth anticipating her actions, pressed against her, forcing the woman to move her attention towards keeping herself up.

By the time Irene steadied herself and was ready to deal with Seth, his lips had already left hers and were now on her nipple.

"Ahhhhh" Irene couldn't help but let out a moan, pleasure filling her from Seth's simulations of her breast and the sweet feeling of her milk leaving her body.

Seth planned to drain Irene's breast some more, but then he felt both Iren's hands rest on his head and the woman turn his head to look up at her.

The redness on Irene's face and her heavier than normal breathing told Seth that Irene enjoyed his actions, but when he looked into her eyes, these same feelings weren't reflected.

Her eyes portraying what seemed to be worry and determination, Seth let go of Irene's nipples and brought his head close to hers.

"Fine let's just play a little, then I'll carry you all way through the rest of the journey," Seth said, already beginning to layer kisses on her neck, his hands trailing for her cunt, but before he could reach the goal Irene's hand held his.

"No, we need to go now, I can feel it in my gut, I need to leave," Irene said staring at the opening of the cave.

A frown adorned Seth's face as he mulled on Irene's words, the thought that Irene might be sensing an impending danger crossed his mind but seeing as he who was quite confident in his ability to predict danger felt nothing, Seth was quite doubtful.

"Is something dangerous coming" Seth decided to ask.

"I'm not sure, all I feel is the need for us to get moving, or something bad will happen".

"Women and their gut feeling" Seth grumbled in his mind. While he didn't have faith in Irene's fears, Seth had heard on more than one occasion about the mysteries of woman and their gut feeling, so he figured he might as well follow Irene's.

Not to mention, it was also possible that it was Minuha's approach that triggered off Irene and with this thought, Seth was more than ready to immediately leave, but just as he stood up and took two steps, Irene spoke.

"Is it the fear that Minuha might be approaching that has you so motivated?" Irene said with a chuckle, but just as those words left her mouth, the temperature of the room figuratively went down by several degrees.

His back facing her, Irene could feel Seth's aura professing the cave, his thought on her words more than clear, but instead of backing down, Irene stood up and walked towards Seth.

"You're traumatized by her aren't you, that feeling of knowing you would be hopeless before an opponent even if you were allowed to prepare for them," Irene said, walking around and hugging Seth, her breast to his chest.

With Irene's words, Seth's qi began leaking off him, and even though Irene could feel it prickling her skin, she didn't let go of Seth.

"She's just level 9 mortal Seth, albeit a little bit special but still a level 9 mortal, her image isn't worthy to have a place in your memory if she isn't present," Irene said.

Seth wasn't used to being in such a position, for his fears to be brought to the table and talked about made him feel weak and pathetic, and worst of all though he wanted to believe 

Irene, he just couldn't find himself doing so.

Irene watched Seth closely and seeming to see the conflict going on within him, she spoke once more.

"No one is born the strongest Seth, at some point everyone has fear".

"I don't have fears" Seth snapped, but this only earned him a smile from Irene who quickly spoke.

"Of course, you don't, why do you think I went on to throw in my lot with you and not Minuha," she said, and before Seth could question her words, she sealed his mouth with a kiss and then quickly walked away.

.....

Seth and Irene had departed the cave when the last rays of the moon were still touching the Earth, and at the moment they were walking under the gaze of the cruel sun.

Despite not liking it, Seth had allowed to Irene hug him from the back and soar with him through the sky, this tact making their crossing over the mountains way easier and faster.

At the moment, they had stumbled into another fauna, one whose name Irene seemed to have forgotten.

In the far distance to their right, Seth could see a tree with a curved top sending on a hill, and this was the route both he and Irene were meant to take.

Irene was supposed to know the route better than him, yet like she had been possessed, she led Seth off course and though Seth wished to call her out on her mistake, in the end, he didn't due to the very familiar scent that entered his nose.

A few minutes more and Seth and Irene could hear the sound of Explosions, this sounds sending Irene moving faster.

While Irene made a mad dash, Seth's mind went on overdrive as he tried to discern what was going on, his brainstorming causing him to fail to keep pace with Irene.

By the time Seth got back in the game Irene's figure had disappeared behind a couple of trees and bushes, and as he drew closer he heard the sound of an explosion and a scream.

This scream didn't belong to Irene so Seth wasn't bothered, but then he heard a voice suddenly scream out "Irene".

The thought that Irene had met an acquaintance entered Seth's mind, but before he think further on it he heard Irene call out in a voice filled with surprise and care "Aimy".

This one word of Irene had a wide grin climbing Seth's face seconds later, and a joyous laughter leaving his mouth as he burst into the scene of two women hugging.
