This is ridiculous, why do I even bother, he is my Knight, he has to like me to develop my power, it doesn't matter if he wants to or not, the chain will force him. To develop my power? Nonsense, I don't want such powers, but I don't even want to die, no no, I definitely don't want to die, or do I? Then they'll leave me alone, won't they, and the dreams will stop? God, the dreams, yes, the dreams and all that lava covering his bare, strong, muscular, tattooed, sweaty chest.

And his hands, have you seen his hands? Those long fingers, stirring even more the long hair on his forehead, curled with sweat as he works out, and then those veiny hands wiping his forehead, slightly wrinkled from the effort after training, and his back, god, his back! And his chest, strong and quivering as he wields or twirls the swords, and his belly, taut abs, tight like a swimming pillow, on which droplets of water run and sink down to...Awake Athena!

This is not normal, I'm sure I need professional help! Yes, help! What am I even doing? Yes, I need clothes, Junkook is taking me on a date. What do people do on such a date, they have dinner, talk, drink, I don't drink, but he pretends to drink, then what, a movie? I read a lot of books, it will probably be boring, what should I wear, a dress or jeans?

Maybe I would have known if I had accepted that kid in seventh grade. I just compared Jungkook to a fourteen year old, man, I'm so bad, they have nothing in common, Jungkook is a man, in every way, at least I think so, he is a man, right,boys don't have bodies like that, or they do, where did I go?

Come on Athena, what does it matter what you wear, the minute you get out there he'll find something better or more interesting to look at. That's why I chose a black blouse with a dropped shoulder, shallow skirt-trousers and rubber boots, sporty elegant, ideal to be unnoticed. I braided my hair into a herringbone, which fell sideways on my left shoulder, a little mascara, a little gloss on the lips, that's it, ready and definitely unnoticeable.

God damn it! She is gorgeous! Look at her, nothing flashy, nothing that should attract my attention, not smeared like a clown from a circus show and definitely nothing too dirty, except her bare shoulder and the sleeves of her blouse hanging by a few nuts. Where have you been all this time beautiful? And her lips, those lips the color of an unripe but reddened cherry and the taste of honey, do I really have to take her out, this won't go smoothly, someone will look at her and I'll freak out!

"Stop it!" yes, as if I can. "What?" I know what, but I can't stop, these pants make your ass look so sexy I want to bend over and spank you! "Shall we go?" why is she irritated, oh yes, I'm staring at her. "What do you want us to do?" I asked, trying to get my mind off the thoughts of her ass. "Are you asking me, didn't you invite me, shouldn't you have planned something?" oooo, i have a few things in mind that you would really like, baby! "No, of course, I invited you, so we'll do whatever you decide" and yes, I know I'm grinning like an excited shopaholic!

"Oh, I thought you were up to something and, well...I..." here she is, blushing again, my god, this girl can boil an egg on her cheeks. Does she blush like that when she's excited? "Okay, what do you like to do?" I asked, looking up into her eyes. No difference, that gaze of a doe, the color of molten amber glass glinting in the light of the embers from the furnaces, only turns me on even more. I'm lost, totally and brutally, this girl will finish me! I don't know if it's because of the chain, or because of that innocence written on her blushing and shy face, but if her beautiful lips pucker up just a little more, I'm going to cum in my pants.

"I like to read" great, shrug some more, I'm sure those two higher entities of yours are dying to break free from their bra prison, and I don't mind giving them a massage to make them relax. Shit, you make me feel like an old lecher who only thinks about getting between the new maid's legs, laying her on the table and fucking her until hell freezes over!

Think, Jungkook, with your head, not with your dick! "What else?" at least I can still say whole sentences, simple things, but I don't sound like I need a speech therapist. "Ice cream, I like to eat ice cream" but of course. "And lie under a tree watching the sunset" can I lie under you? "Okay, what else?" god say yes!"I don't know what does this have to do with our date?" nothing, I just want to know what to put on that hot body before I lick it all over.

"Jungkook, if you don't stop staring at me, I'm going back to my room!" why don't you just kick me in the balls? "Okay, okay, I'm sorry, you're just really beautiful" aww, what a sweet talker I am! "Thanks, I guess" doesn't make sense pretending to be something I'm not, right? So I hastily decided where to take her, so I could stare without her noticing me.

"I hadn't ridden a bike" her rosy cheeks showed from under the helmet she handed to Jungkook and he smiled, still feeling her arms around his waist and her fingers digging into his abs to hold on.He felt like this was his first date with a girl at all. Everything Athena did or said was like she was on a first date and it was extremely arousing or Jungkook had just broken down. It hadn't been that long since he'd had a woman in his bed, now, he hadn't lied that since their chains had appeared, he hadn't looked at or been with another woman, but what, two weeks? Three? It didn't matter, he was still thinking with his dick.

"It's an amusement park!" Athena's eyes lit up like spotlights and he raised his eyebrows. "Do you like amusement parks?" she looked at him and bit her lip. "I've never come, I've always wanted to, but there was no one to go with" she admitted frankly, and Jungkook laughed. "Let's take it over then, what do you say,sparkly?" he took her hand and the two of them passed under the curved sign of the double, wide-open metal gate.

Jungkook had never had so much fun, Athena seemed to be seeing the world for the first time. She wouldn't turn down a single attraction, even after she almost set the House of Horrors on fire, then she got sick of the roller coaster and the gondola. They were eating cotton candy and hotdogs and she was swooning, as if they were eating at an incredibly expensive restaurant, with who knows what. They drank banana shakes, it turned out that she loved them and promised to make him homemade for breakfast.

Jungkook competed in the punching bag and won, with Athena cheering him on so much that he felt like he had won a world prize. So when they passed the archer, Jungkook proved that he could not only swing a sword, but also shoot, and now the two of them were walking towards the Ferris Wheel, Jungkook's hand resting securely low on her waist, and Athena had her arms around a giant stuffed panda, a prize from the shooting range he gave her.

Junkookie helped her into the cab and took the panda from her hands, placing her on the opposite seat, then sat down next to Athena, who, with her hands on the window and her back to him, was smiling at the crowd on the side, waiting for the wheel to start turning. . "Jungkook, look!" he approached her to see what Athena was pointing at and smiled. "Do you want to go there too later?" he asked, enjoying her profile and the joy on her face.

"Can I?" her hopeful voice made the hair on the back of his neck stand on end. "Anything you want, spark" he nodded with a smile, and he really meant it, he had never felt so free, calm and himself on a date with a girl. This laughing Athena was running around looking curiously at a newborn kitten who enthusiastically climbed all the swings, despite Jungkook's warnings that she might get scared, who entered the House of Horrors, constantly jumping on his neck from fear. The one who shouted for him while punching and then shooting was nothing like the quiet and withdrawn, shy Athena from the campus.

Her desire to try everything she saw infected him with eagerness to show it to her. She didn't expect him to be perfect, she laughed as they both screamed with their hands raised on the roller coaster, she looked at him with respect when she was scared, seeking safety in his arms, she let him be himself, enjoying his smile with a glowing gentle look when he stopped at the "boys" games, didn't criticize him when, while they were eating a hot dog, he smeared himself with mustard and instead of making a disgusted face like every other girl before her, she dipped her finger in the mustard and smeared it on his nose, bursting into gasping laughter as he drew a big thick line of the sauce across her cheek.

As a born Agoran, Jungkook had never thought about how the chain chose and matched a Guardian-Knight, but tonight, as his Guardian enjoyed herself, sincerely appreciating even the smallest gesture he made for her, Jungkook felt grateful for the red color of their chain, although even if it was white or purple, it would hardly change the fact of how she made him feel.

For her part, Athena seemed to be in seventh heaven. Jungkook was able to release all her secretly locked desires and make her feel happy and important, in fact alive was the right word. He was patient, funny, gave her a stuffed panda, behaved chivalrously while she moved between the jostling people in the crowd, shielded her with his body, patiently responded to all her wishes and paid her sweet compliments, making her feels beautiful and wanted.

There was no sign of the arrogant, sometimes callous Knight she had known until now, his smile was gorgeous and sincere, his gaze was adoring her, and if this was dating, Athena was convinced that there was no other man who would took her out on a better date.

Let me explain something to you about the Agorans, we are people like everyone else, plus minus a few differences, but now I'm talking in an emotional sense. However, our life is mainly centered around the family. If it is successful, then you have achieved everything, especially my parents, without going into details, failed miserably in this. And I have to admit, the nightmares from the memory are not the most pleasant experience.

Anyway, not only family, but love is something that we hide, like you people, money and success, fame, popularity, and we want to keep it at all costs. That's why we choose our partners very carefully, because they are for life. We don't get divorced, the only way to break up after marriage is for one of us to die.

This rule applies with even greater force when you become an Agora warrior with red chains. Call it magic if you want, but when the red chain closes, the two of you simply have no choice. No matter what you do, no matter how you try to pull in opposite directions, in the end you always end up together, in love, and your love for the other becomes like breathing, natural, necessary, hopelessly desired.The chains were never wrong, connecting the Guardian and her Knight, no matter how it looks from the sides and to others, the connection between the two is inevitable according to the color of the chain.

And that's exactly what was happening to me too, no matter how hard I tried to deny it, no matter how I pulled myself together, tonight when Jungkook showed me what he was, not the Knight, but the man behind him, the one who treated the woman, not the Guardian , just as naturally, and I showed him the one I hid from everyone else and which only my sister has seen when we are alone.

This woman loved to have fun, to try new things, to laugh, but she was too shy to do it, she felt too bound by the truth of her origin to show herself to everyone, so when I found a person, in front of with whom I could feel calm, with whom I was protected, this woman in me, experienced and felt everything to the max, because she didn't know when she would be able to show herself again.

"Thank you, it was an...amazing evening" Athena smiled, looking down, suddenly very embarrassed. She was leaning against the door of her room, hugging the huge panda to her chest, and Jungkook was towering over her, resting his hand on the door frame, while with the other he played with a strand of hair that had come out of her braid and looked at her hungrily, which it made Athena blush to the point that her lungs were ashamed to breathe.

"If I'd known I'd be hearing your laugh all night, I would have taken you there a long time ago" he brought the lock to his lips, breathing in the fresh scent of mint and apples from her shampoo and smirked as Athena began to breathe in heavy waves and the tattoo on his shoulder pulsed, a clear signal that her emotions were raging.

"I already know where I'm going to take you next time" she looked up at him and her eyes lit up, as it seemed to him, with the brilliance of the entire Milky Way. "Next time?" her voice caressed him and his body reacted like goose feathers tickling his insides. "You can't hide from me anymore, spark, not when I saw the woman you hide behind that shyness" he leaned in a little more and his lips almost touched hers.

He smirked even more, his tattoo pulsing, sending out warm waves that teased him under the spoon in the sweetest and most pleasurable way possible. Every part of his body and being craved her, wanted her, demanded that he get her, make her melt, surrender to him, subdue her and make her happy. Jungkook knew there was no point in pulling away, the moment her imprint appeared on his shoulder, despite his stubbornness, he knew he would do anything for her, for her smile, for her approval, even if it cost him life.

Now Athena was the meaning of his existence, her happiness, her love, how far she would go, how strong she would become, her survival, he was no longer important, there were no other desires and priorities, there was nothing else to keep him on earth . And with time, all this would only become stronger and stronger until he fell in love and she became his gravity, his universe.

To others, they would be the Guardian and her Knight, to them, they would be everything, their Agoran blood had written it among the stars since their birth, dooming their souls and hearts to intertwine and bring forth the greatest of all strength, that of lovers. Only a mother protecting her child had more power than a Guardian in love and her Knight.

And following the unwritten laws of blood, Jungkook did the only thing he knew she craved right now. His lips touched hers, his fingers let go of her lock and his hand locked around her waist, pressing her against his body as he deepened the kiss, absorbing her soft moan, learning her, feeling the uncertain movements of her lips, his tongue slipped and tasted so the ambrosia he needed when hers answered him. It didn't matter anymore, he had kissed her before, but this was their first real and conscious kiss for both of them and she bound him to her like no chain could.

For Athena, the emotion of their lips touching was no less thrilling. Jungkook's lips were soft and warm, they tasted like melted sugar, and with each slide of theirs on hers, they marked her soul and heart, making her feel the emotion of a fish that has returned to water after being on dry land for a long time. It's as if she didn't live until now, but only existed, waiting for this moment, this man, this feeling, his touch, his desires.

His kiss made her see the beauty of the infinite cosmos with every cell of her body, her blood boiled with the need for him, with desire, with excitement. And if she hadn't felt his hand on her waist, she could have sworn that her body no longer existed, and her soul roamed Heaven, feeling the ease and peace that Athena had sought all her life.

Jungkook broke the kiss and rested his forehead against hers, Athena protested with a whimper, as if something vital had been taken from her and she wanted it back. "There's a lot more where this is coming from, my little spark, but if I keep going, I don't know if I'll be able to stop, and you're tired" he smirked, instinctively sensing that Athena wasn't ready for the next step. But he had to and would be patient for her sake.

"Get some rest, we have practice tomorrow, and you promised me a banana shake for breakfast" he caressed her cheek, closing his eyes for a moment, enjoying the warmth of her breath against his lips. Then he pulled back and waited for her to enter into her room and closed the door. "Congratulations boy, you've just tasted the truth, what it means to find the other half of yourself and feel complete" he thought philosophically before walking to his room, heading straight for the bathroom, he definitely needed a cold shower.
