Love across eras: Bound by fate

Chapter 1:A deal with a devil.

Terielis ...

5000 years ago...

Somewhere in the Dark wastelands.

In a dark cavern where the even rays of the sun found it difficult to shine through,a deep,guttral voice echoed with an intensity enough to send send shivers down the spine of the bravest of humans.

" Human,do you really want to do this,you'll be...?"

"Yes." Replied a calm voice that oozed with determination and confidence not even waiting for the devil to complete his sentence. Underneath that calmness however lied an hint of grief.

Shrouded in the darkness the devil couldn't help but be stunned. It was very rare for a human to be so determined,not even waiting for him to complete his speech.

"Very well then,I'll start."

And without waiting for a reply the devil started chanting.

"Tingtomak roguzen,shinigami! By the power of the Demon God Azimuth,I Ragnarok bestow upon you the power of........AUROBON!"

"IGNATIUS!"

Immediately the devil completed the last word of the spell human figure fell to the ground convulsing while bleeding from all his orifices,clearly he was in pain,pain that was too much to bear for any normal human. However,gnashing his teeth he endured.

Aarrgh!

BOOM sshkrrrakh!

With a sharp crack,thunderbolts danced across the sky seemingly heralding a dark fate for the world.

Picking up from where it stopped the ancient devil went on.

"Rise and conquer,revel in carnage and unleash your wrath,destroy any who stands in your way and feast on their fear,that's it yes,yes,yes,Haha haha,huhahahaha........"

After about half an hour of intense pain the human figure rose up and looked towards the darkness where the devil. He still looked like a human except for the ominous air wrapped around him.

With a nod if satisfaction the devil spoke again,this time a hint if tiredness in it's tone.

"Go human,exact revenge on all those who hurt you. Don't disgrace the powers you have been granted."

Nodding his head,he turned around and started to leave the cavern when the devil called out to him while something flew towards him. Catching it with one hand it turned out to be a sword made of bones,white like death,it felt perfect in his hands.

"Thought you might need a weapon."

" Thank you." he said as he left. Drawing in a breath of the cool wintery air he glanced at the sword in his hand. It was emanating a deep thirst for blood and he was going to satisfy it,gazing at the lands beyond the mountains he rose into the air before flying forward vanishing into the distance.

There was only one thought on his mind.

Kill!

.................

Modern day

Juniper city...

"Oh yeah,looking good! Five thousand years ain't doin anything to ya."

Standing in front of a full length mirror,Theale Gamalok admired his reflection like an obsessed narcissist as he ran his slender fingers through his metal grey hair.

Standing at over six foot three,his deep,soul piercing blue eyes,perfectly shaped nose and mouth and well chiselled jawline made him look like an Adonis.

In fact it wasn't an exaggeration to say his handsomeness surpassed that of an Adonis!

The number of ladies that were drooling over him were too numerous to count. Damn! he had even received funny, suspicious looks from guys before,yuck! Just the thought made him shiver in fear.

Thus it was no surprise that he was so engrossed with his looks.

But that was were it stopped,unlike most narcissists who were so self absorbed,Theale was always able to extricate himself from getting lost in illogical ideologies.

He jokingly refered to it as healthy narcissism whenever he was with his friends.

"Sigh,despite my handsomeness it's a pity that there is no one to complement it if only.......Aiyah,just forget it."

With a somewhat reminiscing expression he mused to himself,a hint of loneliness emanating from him before it disappeared.

Waving his hands like he was scattering clouds in the air he grabbed his jacket before heading downstairs.

Grabbing the keys of his Gamon Travesty sports car he drove out of the premises.

As science and technology had advanced rapidly the level of development of Terielis was phenomenal. Thinking of those days when you needed a whole week to travel a two hour journey he sighed in his heart. Times had changed he thought,he was still reminiscing when his car's notification panel lit up signalling an incoming call.

"Alexa who is it?"

An holographic projection of a Latina appeared on the dashboard,she was a type of AI virtual assistant that was very common nowadays. They were very popular because they were very versatile and customizable.

The only thing was her figure. In plain English SHE WAS HOT!

Damn,her figure was enough to cause a nosebleed!

Swiping her hand across the virtual control panel she replied while bowing,revealing hints of something exceptional.

" Master, it's young master Kevin,should I connect the call?"she asked.

The virtual assistant's voice was in an anime like voice that reeked of pure cottequishness,it made one wonder what was in Theale's mind when he customized her appearance.

"Hurhun."

Still driving Theale nodded, as he acknowledged her request.

Kevin was his best and only friend through high school,today was his birthday hence the reason he was going out.

Kevin's face popped onto the screen as he started speaking,slobbering the screen. If not for the screen seperating them he probably would be drowned in spit.

"Yooo...., where are you, it's getting late and the girls are getting restless."

"Am coming,am coming,am almost at your place and moreover isn't it just past two birthday boy?"he asked raising an eyebrow.

" Time waits for no man bro. Hurry up,am waiting for you and oh yeah there's this special babe, all for you,hehe. Hurry up!"

"Wait Kevin I don't need a girl!"

"Sorry I can't hear you,see you later."

"Don't you dare cut the...."

Piiiing!

And the call was cut off just like that.

"Did he just hang up on me?"

Rolling his eyes,Theale felt like beating Kevin up. How many times he had been setup with a girl by Kevin,he couldn't count.

He knew that he was trying to help him break his single spell but most of the ladies he met were always gone after a week of dating as they were only attracted to his money and looks. Most especially his looks.

Another reason was that he had sworn to only love one person so no matter how good they were they could never have a place in his heart.

Sighing in his heart he thought to himself that rich and handsome peoole like him often found it hard to find true love.

Alexa:ಠಿ⁠_⁠ಠ

Screech!

"Holy sh*t!"

He was still musing when his car suddenly skidded,causing him to curse. Stopping the car,he got down to check what he stepped on only to find out that his car had slid on dog poop!

"Fuck,am I going to have bad luck? Dang it who let their dog take a dump on the road?" Angry as he was there was nothing he could do.Hoping back into his car he resumed his journey this time with enough focus.

Not long after he soon arrived at the Grand continental,one of Juniper city's largest and classiest restraunts.

Handing his car key to the valet ,he went into inside and soon spotted Kevin who was seated amidst some young masters and a lot of ladies.

You had to give it up for Kevin as he really had this knack for choosing ladies. They were in all the types of categories you could think of tall,short lolita,cougar.......huhum,erm that's not the focus point.

Standing up Kevin approached him, spreading his arms for a hug.

"Here comes my man."

Immediately they hugged each other Theale whispered into Kevin's ear ."I'll break all your bones."

Without flinching,Kevin also whispered back

Yeah,yeah,you can do that later,for now just play along bro.

Without waiting for any reply Kevin was already drawing Theale to the others.

" People,listen up, here is my brother,the one and only,drumroll please ........Theale Gamalok !"

"Ahh!"

" Oh my God,he's too cute."

" He's mine! Don't contend with me,he's mine!

All the ladies gasped when they saw him as he was just too charming . What more his name alone was a huge guveaway. An heir of the Gamalok group! He's a walking bank !

All the comments they made were somewhat Exaggerated ,but it was not as the last one.

"Theale let me bear your child!"

Theale:(⁠＠⁠_⁠＠⁠;⁠)

Everybody else:(⁠⊙⁠_⁠◎⁠)

Somewhat embarrassed Theale replied:

"Err...,thank you but let's not go too far don't you think?"

Slapping his back Kevin roared with laughter."Good lord, it seems like you're still the ladies man as usual. Come,come we have a party to rock!

As soon as he sat down,no less than five ladies swarmed him. He felt exasperated as was not interested in these types of women.

At the same time he didn't want to just shoo them off as that would only be throwing away Kevin's face.

It seemed like stepping into that pile of dog poop really was bad luck.
