Chapter 137 Ellyn
Chapter 137 Ellyn
The next day.
"ARGH! FUUUCCCKK!"
Jackie yelled as she tried to walk while Alex supported her.
Last night was too wild and only now was she realizing just how overboard she had gone.
She shouldn't have done this. She should've known better and controlled herself, thought Jackie and somewhat regretted it.
The regret was only a little though and not much, since she enjoyed everything to the fullest.
You win some, you lose some, this was how it was.
"Honey, you should rest," said Alex with visible concern.
Like Jackie, he too was regretting, but the regret was about hurting his wife. He should've controlled himself and not gone overboard.
Anyway, what was done was done.
"No, I am fine. Let's get—ngg—going," Jackie said with a grunt.
Alex felt worried, but didn't comment on it further.
He helped Jackie for a bit and she let out a lot of pained groans while walking.
Not being able to bear with it anymore, he went in front of her and squatted down.
"Here, climb," said Alex while gesturing for Jackie to get on his back.
Jackie was surprised by this action. "There's no need for this, darling."
"I am not arguing on this," Alex said in a firm tone.
Jackie wanted to deny again, but then changed her mind and got on top of Alex.
Surprisingly enough, in their long life, they had never shared such a moment together.
There was no need for Alex to piggyback carry his wives and there never arised a moment where they could do this, since they were all gods.
Having Jackie successfully get on his back, Alex went to the buffet area and had some food with her. The two then left for the airport and made their way to Miami.
…..
In a dark chamber somewhere far away, a group of cloaked men were worshipping an X shaped altar.
Offerings were placed, heads were bowed, and the revelation was about to occur at any moment.
After about ten minutes of being in the same position, the altar shook and the offerings disappeared.
A bright light shined on the cloaked men and eventually disappeared in a few seconds.
As the light was gone, the men raised their heads and a complicated look surfaced on their faces.
"What was that…" One of the men couldn't help but say.
"Did we get the right visions?" Another man asked, to which he got his slapped on the back of his head.
"Questioning the lord is blasphemy," said the man who slapped the cloaked figure just now.
"I am sorry, but, this… is this really what we got as visions?" The man couldn't help but ask.
The other men nodded their heads, albeit reluctantly as they all had gotten the same vision.
"The Demon's Parade shall be preponed then. Vatican will pay for their crimes," a person said with murderous intent.
The others put their arms in a cross and said in unison, "Hail the Curseds!"
"We've been tortured, we've been shunned, and we've been discriminated against for many decades now. This shall end soon!"
"Hail the Curseds!"
These men belonged to the Church of Curseds.
Curseds were the opposite of Blesseds and brought great misfortune everywhere they went.
Naturally, people avoided them and tried to get rid of them because nobody wanted bad luck to rain down on them.
This led to a mass purging of the Curseds and eventually, the remaining survivors banded together and began worshipping a Cursed God to derive their powers from and go against the Blesseds.
As of now, the Curseds were almost as strong as the Blesseds. Not on par yet, but almost there.
They worked with a good majority of Evil Blesseds and their plans had been laid out properly.
It was now time for execution.
"How are the pawns?" A person asked.
"In place, ready to work at command."
"Good, we'll start in a month from now then."
"Hail the Curseds!"
…..
Miami, Florida.
Alex landed in Miami with Jackie, who was now feeling somewhat relieved.
As soon as they got out of the airport, they saw a gorgeous young lady holding a sign that read 'Dr. Alexander Gray'.
This young lady had an innocent looking face with bright green hair and eyes.
As Jackie noticed her, she couldn't help but be surprised. "Ellyn!"
Jackie waved at the lady and made her way towards her. Alex did so too as this lady was none other than his wife.
Ellyn felt slightly embarrassed to have her name be called so loudly. Everyone's eyes were on Jackie and Alex when they first walked out, but now their gazes were locked at Ellyn.
If Jackie could be called hot and seductive, Alex as handsome and charming, then Ellyn was an innocent and gentle beauty in comparison.
She seemed really pure and in a place like Miami, this was far too rare and the people just could not stop themselves from staring at her.
As Alex neared his wife Ellyn, he could feel the people's gazes and realized that Ellyn was feeling uncomfortable.
He wrapped his arms around Ellyn to cover her and establish his authority, then began moving towards the taxi waiting for them a few yards away.
Getting into the taxi, Alex couldn't help but ask, "Why are you here, El? This place isn't good for you."
Miami was not for the pure hearted and Alex wanted to keep all his wives away from this place.
People here had no shame and hit on whomsoever they liked, without caring for their marital status.
Drugs, sex, alcohol was really common and this whole place just wasn't the right one for someone like Ellyn.
Ellyn, being questioned by her husband, snuggled close to him and said softly, "I was told that you would need me…"
Snuggling like this was a natural thing for Ellyn and she felt nothing wrong with it. It was only Alex who was a bit surprised to see his wife attach herself to him so quickly as if they were long lost lovers.
Though, he had no complaints and it was merely a thought that passed in his head.
Caressing Ellyn's hair, Alex asked in a similar soft tone, "You don't need to bother yourself like this, honey. I'll be fine on my own."
Ellyn hugged Alex tightly and shook her head. "No. Fate sis never says anything wrong."
"Hmm?" Jackie caught onto this. "Fate sis sent you here?"
Ellyn nodded lightly. "She sent me saying husband would be in trouble soon, so I need to go."
"I see," said Jackie while nodding. If it was their big sister Fate, then it would make sense as to why Ellyn was here.
"Well, good on you for joining us. I would love some help from you…"
Jackie didn't miss out on this opportunity and using Ellyn, got herself healed of all soreness and pain in her body.
Ellyn was the very concept of Life.
Life originated because of her and what is called as 'living' is all due to her. She gave out the soul, body, and mind to a being and turned her alive.
If she didn't exist, then so wouldn't life anywhere in this boundless cosmos.
Except Elysian Gods, all life originated from Ellyn and they would eventually die and go to Yami, forever assimilating with her and finding their solace.
Yami was the concept of Death and together with Ellyn, created the reincarnation cycle of life.
As Ellyn was Life herself, she naturally was the best healer in the entire cosmos and treating such small soreness should not be a problem.
Jackie shamelessly used her younger sister's powers and Ellyn was a bit embarrassed while healing her.
Alex watched them both and didn't comment on anything.
The two talked together and despite being their husband, Alex felt like a third wheel as he just couldn't understand their talks.
They were talking about things related to the human body and stuff. It was a female's body and mostly about Jackie's last night with Alex.
Alex wished he could not hear this as Jackie was going into great details about the things she experienced. Ellyn was also listening to everything intently as if it was something super fascinating and out of this world.
Well, it was to be expected from the two as this was their first time being in mortal bodies themselves.
Even though Ellyn was the source of life, the creation of the mortal body was much more than just life.
It was a combination of all the elements and contained the essence of all the Gods of Elysium.
If such wasn't the case, then Ellyn and Jackie wouldn't be talking about it right now.
Alex decided to lean back and rest while his two girls talked.
The taxi driver was definitely eavesdropping on their conversations, but Alex was too unbothered to check up on him.
That guy was minding his own business and not even peeping, he was good at his job, Alex had to give him that.
Alex took a short nap while the taxi drove him from the airport to his hotel. It was a thirty minute ride and once he reached this place, he rested for a while with his wives in the suite.
There was some time to go out as the work he needed to do could be done only at night.
