It was the next morning, Ellarya and Giovanni had returned to their home in the White Tower. Giovanni , slipped into Elle’s room , and slipped in beside her. This was not usual Ellarya awoke, looked at his gorgeous countenance that she loved so much and wished him a good morning. Slightly alarmed that he had worked out what she had done. He hadn’t a clue,Mymsha had covered everything with her antidote. Giovanni was amourous ; he knew the spell had not quite worked and could not figure out what was wrong. He figured maybe perhaps it would work in Elle’s domain.

He had slipped some of Alagron’s mix into her OJ ( a specialized Butterflairy nectar with Alagron’s flavourings)on the Breakfast tray he had brought into her. He had made it up himself. Ellarya was enjoying this new ,kinder side of Giovanni , him coming to her. Then she thought the better of it. Something was up and she had to get more of Mymsha’s antidote or the ” GIG ” would be up! She excused herself to her powder room and found the hidden vial in the vine leaves behind her Honeydew Crystal Mirror on the wall. She took it, just in time. Giovanni slipped in and slipped into her . He had Rossini’s William Tell Overture Finale playing.He said she looked to enticing for him and brought her back to her bedroom. He sat her down and handed her the morning drink to taste. Did she like it ? She did actually; she knew what was up, having had her own blend just before Gio entered into her privacy and space . Her powder room was exquisite. The same as Arasawti Prime with its own step in bathing pool. Beside it a soft and comfortable chaise lounge which Gio guided and placed himself and held onto Ellarya . She didn’t mind when he was ravenous ,insatiable all the things a loving partner should be, delicate and kind. Once back within her bedchamber,he changed again and put on Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake Op. 20 Act 11 No.10 – Rough and ready , he had his way with Ellarya once more to collect and complete his intentions of his spell.

He brought her to the brink of changing- he just enjoyed that about her so very much. Greedy and hot and mystically inspired,Giovanni was going to make sure they would always be connected . It was that inexplicable need about possession he had always had about her. It didn’t matter the lifetime or the span of centuries- she was his beloved hand – fast wife and he actually treasured her more than he ever let her know. Part of control , to keep her longing , so she would never leave him. He guessed. He got that wrong , because he had to leave her . She clearly found refuge and companionship elsewhere. He didn’t know for sure , but, he could make sure – they weren’t ever together again. Even worse, this was his Cousin. Elle was a very sensual and caring Butterflairy. She loved being enraptured by Giovanni. He was unique to her in so many ways. She wished he didn’t leave her and go off on his “trips”. Ellarya’s antidote did the trick and produced a false connection and vision for Giovanni, so that he felt connected to her through the Dragons . It was a false connection , with her 7th Eye intact. Giovanni , duplicate self , had his way with Elle. These encounters were consensual and exquisite ,on the brink of sensual ecstasy for them both. Ellarya and Giovanni had a weird and wild way with each other . They spent the entire morning together , ending with 1812 Overture (Tchaikovsky).

Later that afternoon, Giovanni satisfied. He had the control and insight into Elle’s mind and 7th eye , that he craved. He set out on another business journey. He said this one was going to be long. He would take short interval breaks to come back to her soon throughout the next year he said. Giovanni said he this trip would last 3 seasons of the year and he would be back at each change of the Season ie the Solstices or the Equinoxes. He said he would come back to celebrate with her and they would play all their tunes and be together for days. He looked at with that knowing gaze. She smiled at him. Ellarya didn’t smile very often. She missed him so very much when he left; she couldn’t handle it sometimes. She would dreamscape to Stefano and escape with him and be happy for short periods of time.Like most affairs, it had nothing to do with her “marriage” ; it was separate and could always come to an abrupt end . Lord Admiral Stefano had no intention of letting her go, ever , something Araswati Prime knew!

ELLARYA could not imagine her life without STEVE ,in it somewhere. She got that wrong. too.

Ellarya said celebrate ? He, said, his return to her and successful business trip of course. He gave her a knowing smile and left. Elle knew it was more but could not work out what it was. This would never do. She had just got around Mymsha”s antidote that kept her 7th eye her own and attached to both their dragons. She had to work out away to remain connected to Alagron even though he was Giovanni’s drake. One Drake.One DrakonRyder. This was not ever overcome ,unless you managed to break the connection or cause a “misconnection”. The ways to overcome or cause misconnection between a Ryder and its Drake were limited. You could kill the Drake, only its Ryder and partner would hear the final death breathes , whispers and screams. and the one causing the passing of a Great Magickal Creature. You could take the Ryder out, to pass, that is ,pass under the Wheel and before they passed , enter their 7th Eye and usurp and transfer the contents , to your own, including that of its Drake. ONE, other way to override a Ryder’s connection and to do that you had to enter the Dragon’s Cave.

Alagron’s Cave was at the base of the Dark D7 Mountain Range ,from behind Stephanu’s place.Through the Dark Forest trails ,to the Deep Dungeon Valley Chesster Fields with its Bronze Pagoda in the Center of the Field. Down each side, through vertical end rows of the Chesster Field ran a stream which had the run off from the mountains to the base of the Butterflairy Tree. The Chessterfield was at 3 levels with the Bronze Padoda stood , in the middle level . It was made of two tiers, each with its own mini field-boards. The Deep Dungeon Valley Chesster Field was a battle field to protect the balance and forces for which it stood and to travel through it one would have to play Chess with its particular Butterflairy special features: 3 levels, the Bronze Pagoda with its checkerboard and snakes and ladders level playing field., The Towers at each Corner of the Field from which Alagron’s Guardian DrakeBats . 4 additional guardian players on each corner Tower and with a roll of the dice to get up the Bronze Pagoda , you could play up and pass ,if reached the top then hop, skip and jump to one of the DragonBat Towers. Each DragonBat had its own quarter to protect and look over. They also moved with the roll of the dice. The dice being , the little dark hedgehogs that mossied and trudged about the fields. They would roll and the Chesster Fields, battlefield would shift and the streams flowed with moats around each Tower base. The battles within the Chesster Fields protecting its side domain , raged on!

Peace was a rare thing. Always somewhere , the was a war. Chaos reigned and the “Jesters danced.” ( American Pie by Don McLean)The Forces of White Life worked hard to keep things in balance as best they could .Like always , it is the little things in life, that bring the forces of good back into balance and harmony. Dhanya’s “Duances”. Nature relies on the green elements of this Rosedrop World, to keep and conserve ,its precious resources that give and bring life and to sustain its” “humanities” ,to educate the next generation. This is what is required to keep the forces and life in balance within one’s self and the surroundings of the planet and the Universe as a whole- so decreed the Celestial and Diablo 7s. The Higher Councils and the beings there of , throughout this Universe – agree. Ellarya was only Second , it was not her time, as yet. All Primes have the ability to do the little things and help spread that joy and happiness and the Feel , that is required to keep balance , with those who would have it the other way. Ellarya was fighting with Giovanni on all these levels , yet , still, they loved each other ,despite their differences. Despite the centuries. Despite space and time and having different lives. They would always be together one way or another. Gio was going to make sure of it.

Ellarya slithered and flitted through it all to reach the Drake’s Cave.Elle heard Mozart’s Don Giovanni during her stealth movements through the dark regions of the Forest Trails and dark Dungeon Valley Chesster Fields. Alagron had to be summoned to join Giovanni when he was away on his other family/ business trips. Elle knew that she had to connect with Giovanni’s Drake in another way; without Mymsha’s’ potion because she only just managed to take it before Giovanni’s surprise. She smiled at how he came to her , he had never done that before. In all their time together, she was always summoned to his quarters. The music and the way he was with her, something was up and she couldn’t put her mind to what it was. She was enthralled and intrigued to Giovanni’s next step. They did always seem to be battling with one another even with their desires for one another.

Ellarya had not to wake the dark magical creatures that lurked about in the darker regions beyond Stefano’s home. She wondered how he was , working away in his music den- happy so she thought; oblivious that he was missing her.

She finally reached Alagron’s Cave. The Cave was dark and dampened with moss. Small little trickles of honeydew , trickled and sparkled. There was a deep pool that reflected ,like the dark side of the dark double helix from which it came. Dark Purple Lotuses floated on the top. They fragranced the air with a delicate , suttle , aorma. A much lighter version of Christian Dior’s Poison perfume aroma: dark, attractive and alluring . This was the aroma one got on approaching Alagron’s cave – a dark , mossy poisonous scent. An Aroma meant to scare intruders away; often the opposite can occur from the original attention. It had a deep sense and feeling of welcome to those who could feel it also. His treasure was strewn about the sides of the cave and shone. His hearth was a flame and Ellarya could see the shadows and reflections of the gold, silver and jewels- rubies, sapphires , emeralds, pearls of all colours , semi- precious stones and diamonds- that were strewn around the base and wall of the Cave. Beside the dark pool was a Clear Crystal Globe, it pointed and looked up to the Heavens through a small pothole in the Cave’s Ceiling, hidden by drippy dark, slimy moss. Only a certain angle could you see the lavender hued sky, its skyline and the Moon. The Moon Goddess had to be high and bright ,in the sky’s night. There was the flicker of wealth, over Alagron’s hoard. The hoard belonged to Giovanni. Puccini’s Madame Butterfly was playing via the Universal Helices. The Diablo 7 played it for its tragedy. The Celestial 7 played it for its undeniable Beauty. Ellarya transformed She was stunning in her tailed , horned humanoid self . She presented herself ,a flame, sweat glistening from her torso , blood tears trickling down her face on one side and bowed low. Her nose scraping the earth, inhaling and being one with its surrounding, prostrated beneath him. Alagron had no visitors but his Ryder ( with his duplicate Gemini self ) and Mymsha ,when she could get away. He looked at Ellarya , stood up and was about to flame her to a crisp when he got wave of her scent and he was aroused by her and stopped. He remembered and looked into his 7th Eye and started to unravel Ellarya .

Alagron was a dark Drake. He was not pure black , his scales reflected all the colours of the Rainbow. He shone darkened and fiery :red , orange, yellow , green, blue , indigo and violet. He shone with a dark glow as he saw Ellarya with sweat , blood ,fire flames glistening, reflecting ,mixed together , suttly and stunningly gliding off her.She was slippery. She was wet. She was more than hot. He reached out his forked tongue, his sharp teeth glowed a brilliant white , drew her to him. He let his tongue caressed her and surrounded her. Ellarya tasted him , when he had his tongue slithered into hers. He picked her up and swung her onto his nose , so she clung to him there and straddled him so they could look at one another. There in this position- Ellarya was open to him in many ways. Her tail stroked and caressed , the great Drake, in a petting fashion.bShe was looking directly into the The Dragon’s Eyes and connecting with his 7th eye. He continued to explore her and lick her sweat and blood soaked drippings that melted on his tongue. He enjoyed the taste and smell of her. He conjured the deeply hidden sensuality , that lay within her. He reached within her the place only Giovanni had been able to penetrate and felt part of Giovanni’s soul there , tied with Guilio .He envisioned her encounters with Giovanni and Guilio and within his 7th Eye, he watched their memories of being together- all of them through time and space. He saw Ellarya imprisoned by Giovanni. He remembered his part in holding her and breathing her into him once again. His senses were tingling with her delicate taste. She looked at him and he rolled onto his back. He placed her on his chest and her head was by his heart and she rested there, catching her breathe and holding it , praying she was going to achieve what she needed , to override Giovanni’s grip on his own Drake. As she laid against his chest and Alagron breathed in his own partner’s Ryder – he felt and delved into her 7th Eye. He touched and saw her sadness and the love she had for Stefano and how Giovanni had treated her and did not understand their attraction to one another. He saw her love for his Mymsha and their children to be. He saw the service and dedication and love , she gave to Arrswati Prime. He saw the Crystalline picture that Araswati had shown Ellarya to re- entrap her when she was so very young. She had total blind faith in them all and how badly all of them had let her down, with the exception of Stefano. He saw her pure love and faith and belief in him , that simply would not be shaken , when even the circumstances , should have dictated otherwise. He felt and saw Giovanni’s cruelty and how,he himself had been used. Alagron felt his heart melt for her and blend with hers. Alagron had turned. He wanted good things for his wife and children and this incredibly shy yet brave Butterflairy had come to him, with her hand in her hearts, to simply have the right to freedom and make her own choices with truth and honesty , not lies and deception. Ellarya had won the Dragon’s Heart. (James Horner’s An Ocean of Memories , played out from both the Diablo 7- for its Tragedy and the Celestial 7- the Beauty of the Music and the Memory of an innocent enduring love it symbolised)

Ellarya lay on Alagron, this beautiful creature of the dark and possessed the Dragon’s Heart . Possession of the Dragon’s Heart ,the 3rd way to override a Ryder’s connection from his/ her Drake. Alagron and Ellarya’s 3 hearts beat together felt as if they were in unison. They laid together, Ellarya on Alagron’s chest with her head on his apex beat of his heart and Alagron had his tongue wrapped around Ellarya with the tip over her double hearts’ apex beats. They did not move and remained together and connected , in a trance. the beating of their hearts creating their unique musical blend. The heart beats like drums. The Universe was still and silent as they listened too because they could hear not 3 beating hearts but 7.

Ellarya was carrying twins.

Taylor with his lifeforce Parian, heard 9 beats- triplets.

One baby belonged to Giovanni.

One baby belonged to Stefano .

One baby belonged to Taylor’s Parian- his lifeforce.

Alagron and Mymsha’s Eggs started to glow.

Music began to play. Shakespeare’s Macbeth’s witches were humming the tunes of ” Miss Saigon”from the D7. The Celestial 7 paused. They played over one by one all Allura’s “Happy Songs” to Celebrate Life. Life was Celebrated. And for this night, Peace was at hand in the Rosedrop World and its Magickal creatures awaited the coming of the Dawn and the Rise of the Morning Star Allura Prime.( the MAIN theme music from Space Odyssey played .)

( 2001: A Space Odyssey- the Music-

The Fantasy Art Works of Boris Vallejo and Luis Royo are both inspirational in the writing of this particular chapter.

Giovanni was kind and loving to Ellarya , in the next months After the Battle of Mt. LilleyHIll , Stefano learned of it and cried. He had been working in his music den after Elle left, conjuring up some new sounds. Giovanni made no attempt to confront him directly. Giovanni had an audience and certain “je ne sais quoi ” about him that he was all for ” the little Guy” . Deep in Charity work and appearances. All of it ” true” . However , he had a hidden side of dark dealings which had to be cleaned up on a regular basis. This was done by the Durgha DowagerPrime, and this had started long before The Battle of Mt. LilleyHill.

Araswati was a Vagrant , she had no place to call a home. Very sad . A Reject so to speak in her younger days. Her parents and siblings, she didn’t get on with , so it was a ” feeling” of not being accepted and not belonging. She never quite fit in. Do any of us actually ? She had a good school, good home life growing up , but yet, that want , that need to travel. To explore, to get out in the world, perhaps to see if she belonged elsewhere? A certain craving of sorts. We all have them when we are young and feel we don’t quite fit and somewhere else may just be better. Perhaps, that inevitable search for the one who loves me ! She did have her secret life,the key to it all. She was very , very Wiccan!

She ran into her life with Stefano or it was told. Came into his company , at a young age. She ran off to escape her training in a dark sect of Wiccandom. She ran off with Stefano , returning sometime later, after much success and being established in her work in Artistry, Translation, Healing and JPK reports , like NDAs for Giovanni.. She remained hidden from the world and cleaned up everyone’s life errors, mostly Giovanni. Arswati was ,as we know ,did not want Ellarya to be with Giovanni, but never came clean ,as to why. Elle was discerning asked about his other family and alleged ” accounts of aggressive altercations during meetings, known to be a “hard nut” and” hurt feelings”, more than just emotion . She had heard about it all, in relationships Giovanni had had and one particular image of his other wife with a Governor of sorts , in the New Lands. Giovanni was a keen and astute businessman and he had anyone who had any disagreement with him sign N.D.As: Niccodemus Dedication Agreements. The NDAs basically were payoffs, to be silent and gave monetary reimbursement, for the ordeal that was endured and suffered. It was alleged by Araswati, long after they were married that she had to clear up an altercation for Gio. He was late coming back on one of his work/family trips and Elle was concerned . She asked Ary, if she could chase him up. She mentioned that he had gone out with an “acquaintance” ( “business” meeting”) and there was an accident. . The injured party had to have surgery and have her wings and antennae repaired. A NDA was issued and it was all hushed up. Ellarya asked what it was all about and Aryswati said that it is something he is working on and getting Management assistance ( anger management ,in fact ) Ellarya – did not get it or her , Ary about this, in the slightest. She thought it must be a business thing of sorts. Her Giovanni was not an enforcer of wickedness. She knew him his as a good soul. She dismissed the claim as , it being something less and an embellished altercation. She knew but didn’t know and love had turned a blind eye and one thing for certain, Allura did actually love her hand-fasted husband. NDAs that Gio had designed had a flaw, which meant they were only civil agreements that Araswati , as Prime, could keep under control. If ever ,the receivers of the NDAs got together and brought a Class Act against him, in the Rosedrop World this would be of a more neglectful nature and possibly criminally so, would have to go before the Higher Councils of the C7 and D7 combined. This was how it worked. Giovanni always made sure that NDA recipients were isolated and alone with no one to turn or so he thought. Local Regional Governors and of course, Araswati Prime’s 2nd could be approached for appeal, if wished, for lack of a better term. As Elle was the 2nd and hence a potential conflict of interest- Gio, figured he had all angles covered.

Giovanni still had his “business” and family trips that he had to go on and Ellarya was left to work, study and be Araswati’s 2nd, which was taking up more and more time. Her transfer of learning had slowed down to a sluggish snails pace and the demands on her and her finances were unyielding and the promise of support from the Family Dowry from the Beaumont expense account were never forthcoming. Stefano said it would all be sorted etc and he was a man of his word. Ellarya trusted him and their mothers’ words and kept on working very hard.

Stefano decided that in dreamscape , in their 7th EYE, he was going to meet up with Ellarya again. Whenever, Giovanni was away, he summoned Elle to him. They had a hidden affair that lasted many weeks beyond their first encounter. Elle was enraptured and enthralled ; Giovanni had another family. The truth is Elle was very sad in her marriage with Giovanni and was very disappointed in him and she had shared her unhappiness and disappointment with Steve. He reached out to her probably for the same reason. It was an affair but whatever , they were good friends and stood by each other as best they could.

Giovanni remained sweet and kind and loving and everything a good husband should be when he was around which was never long. His chambers were also on the 3rd floor opposite his wife’s. His rooms were elegant and opulent and indulgent. He was a Prince in his Tower , and a Lord of the New Lands ( where he had a palatial home at the base of the Amethyst mountains with his other family) treated, as such, in all his home (s.)

He would come home and beckon his hand -fast wife to his quarters and be one with her as husband and wife should be. He knew something was different and was furious, as he suspected what it was. Giovanni was made of the constellations of Gemini and Scorpio , hence his attributes. He had dual personality with a Scorpion’s sting and venom.

As Halloween’s Eve approached and the seasons changed, Giovanni decided it was time, to teach Allura her lesson. He had awoken the drakes with his temper during the Battle of Mt Lilley Hill and his plan for Ellarya was to take away her ability to enter dreamscape with Stefano. There was a way, It was dark. It was sinister and it was forbidden as very invasive, sexual and intimidating verging on full on assault. He decided that he was going to use dark magic to combine her with his dragon so that their 7th eyes would be connected. Every Drakonryder was connected to their Drake and its senses. It could see ,feel and engage all ther Drake’s senses, even taste. This would mean that Giovanni would be connected to Allura’s 7th Eye through his Alagron and also Mymsha. Mymsha and Alagron were already connected. Alagron had fathered Mymasha’s eggs for their children ,that were to be. So this had already taken place , as the eggs incubation time was years , sometimes hundreds of years and the eggs could lay dormant for centuries, summoned to hatch when the Ryder was came into being or summoned by that Spirit. A drake would only hatch for one ryder only and they would be attached for life and the subsequent circle of life.

Giovanni had decided to use wine and black magic to engage Ellarya and connect them. He would have to take the Drakes’ fluids and mix them in her drink. Once consumed and they engaged in being connected as man and wife, the connection would be complete and Giovanni would have insight into Elle’s 7th Eye. He could also enter her 7th eye and take part in her dreamscape life as he wished- still being her Lord and as far as he was concerned Master of his hand – fast wife in all things, in all places she had to obey him .He was not even going to let her escape him, in her mind- all of her dreamscape between her and Stefano , were deemed a betrayal- the deed, the thought ,the mind , whether it be body and soul or not.

This particular spell was best cast on Old Hallow’s Eve. IT also needed to take place, in the trunk of the Butterflairy Tree. Giovanni ‘s kindness and caring with his hand -fast wife was completely genuine and he enjoyed her completely , when he was back in their Tower. The events of their honeymoon, were not repeated. They both agreed it was too intense and Gio also had to devise a defense against Elle freezing him. He wanted her to turn because he had enjoyed the heat and fire she brought to him in her horned curved humanoid self.

Old Hallow’s Eve approached, Gio said to Ellarya ,that they needed time a way and that he wanted to take her on another honeymoon. There was one other time, the spell would work, in the wake of a New Full Blue Moon.

On this night, Gio decided he was not going to wait. He came home in a hidden and deepened fury unexpectedly and caught Elle in her sleep calling out for Steve. He entered her room and cooly kissed her wake , she responded thinking it was Steve ,as she awoke. Not sure , being half asleep if she had spoken, called for Steve; she smile and kissed her husband and welcomed him home.

He scooped her up in his arms and said come with me. He said lets fly. He flew her around and about the ChessterFields surrounding their home. The fields in lighter and darker Lilac colours laid out like a Chess Board, the different allocations and suburbs within each square, alegrabically assigned , as , Chess Board notation ,from their White Tower. The flowers were in bloom in the different terrains, gardens and all was calm.

Gio brought Ellarya down into the Butterflairy Tree Trunk front room through the back hidden entrance. He had everything ,as their honeymoon. Elle as she turned to tell him it was “HIS TURN” , Giovanni changed. He split into two as if, he were twins. He held her in the front and from behind and had his dragon come and taste her everywhere as he pushed and explored her in his dual form. He turned her around and inside out. He was about to stop and drip the wine onto her and have her sip it , when she cried out. Alagron had gone to far and was squeezing her neck to have her mouth open, she nearly passed out. The wine went down and Gio took his wife and connected with her in every way, to assure the spell worked. Alagron conjured up the ancient words , “una mecum , intra IIT , et esto animo meo” (be one with me , enter to the dark side and be with my mind). They were all one. (Tchaikovsky:Swan Lake , The Final Scene , played in her head and she could see them dancing, the one choreographed by Nureyev, it blended into JS Bach: Toccata and Fugue in d minor- those darker tones with its hint of a more sinister edge) Gio had not turned to ice, instead he had reversed it and Ellarya was the one petrified in ice and his fury with her as he entered her, and invaded her 7th eye and found her trysts with Stefano. He repaid her in kind for every betrayal. He forced Steve ,to not see, but feel her pain and anguish as he stayed with his wife all through the night- on and on and on and on. Alagron feeding her with his specialized blend of wine which had her intoxicated and more than co-operative with Giovanni bringing their pain and pleasure to new forbidden heights that Giovanni knew no one could bring about in her but him.

Mymsha was sitting and guarding her eggs. She could not assist. Shyvra, sat with Ary. Ary felt it was all justified and she was avenged for the betrayal she felt came from Ellarya . Araswati allowed the black magic to take place . IN agreement with Giovanni – they felt avenged. Ary was playing an interview of Steve’s and listening to his voice, it was the interview where NO MUSIC was playing , which says it all really.Steve had played this for Elle , when they first started seeing each other. He gave her his music and that made all the difference, because it came from him- himself!

Ellarya had tasted and been one with Alagron as well as her husband.He had it planned and he possessed the dragon’s eye and insight into his hand – fast wife’s mind.

Giovanni’s intention had every possibility of backfiring. HE was wrong.

Elle’s 7th Eye was now not her own .Giovanni figured he had access to all Elle’s secrets. Ellarya had already taken precautions,before this night. The question was who got up out of their bed earlier ? Giovanni or Ellarya Giovanni was quite sure he did. Ellarya let him think so, you see, Giovanni, mumbled in his sleep and had revealed all. Ellarya had taken an antidote from Mymsha before Alagron summoned,poured, connected and conjured them connected. She had felt intoxicated indeed and her horns and tail had sprouted – fire and ice prevailed between them- love and lust combined is more than a potent combination. They really didn’t need the wine between the pair of them when they both felt that way. Giovanni and his Gemini twinned self, Giulio ,were just the “Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde” versions of Giovanni that existed within him.

Ellarya had more control that evening, in the wake of the Blue Moon. Gio and Giulio would come to learn this , as would Alagron. Ellarya , was the one, who could see within Alagron’s and Gio’s and Guilio’s 7th Eye , not the other way around. Gio had made a fatal mistake in note waiting for Old Hallow’s Eve. IT was Ellarya , who had put into his head to rush their honeymoon, She was not asleep or in dreamscape with Steve when Gio came into her chambers the previous late afternoon. She was positioned and waiting for him. She had sensed the danger and was more in tune with his arrivals as soon as he was near. Steve was safely tucked away in his music den, oblivious to what was going to transpire. Elle always made sure as husband and wife they were completely alone, she maintained that marital privacy for Giovanni.

Ellarya could see within Alagron’s and Gio’s and Giulio’s 7th Eye directly. Gio was seeing a planted memory and nothing more. Stefano had felt and seen nothing, other than his connection with Elle had been temporarily suspended. He was worried for her and felt odd without her and that is why he wept. He missed his friend, his lover , who was more than a handful. She was comforting and a good ally. ( Stay with me , by Sam Smith was whispering in the background at Steve’s)) Ellarya had protected “her” Steve and done her best by him and kept her promise.

Ellarya had The Dragon’s 7th Eye. 2 Dragon’s :Alagron & Myrethe with all the abilities that came with it. Ellarya had gained power and control and told no one. ( the tune now playing in Ellarya’s head was Tchaikovsky Sleeping Beauty ;she saw the ballet in her head, one she had seen so many times as a child ).

“Your Nuts” he said! You think I owe you £15 million pounds ? You’ve lost it honey. You have also not protected her for the last 3 years . Do you think you can wipe that out ? Do you think , I am scared of them or you? I’m not. Never have been and never will be. I can get rid of anyone whom I think is NOTHING and I can get rid of them quickly. IN fact, I can get rid of them all. Is that what you want?

Your dreaming honey. They can’t protect her or you. So , I can give you some money and pay you off. But NOT £15 million. Do what I want and I’ll let you and her live. Make your decision by the end of the day.

Bye for now ” Muffin”.

Hello, Ellarya. You’re mad. I’m leaving and your righteous pals don’t have the ability to stop me. Ask your precious ” Ary”. The Celestial 7, Great Drakes none of them can stop me. Face you: “NO” – I don’t thinks so. I THINK I WILL JUST DESTROY EVERYTHING YOU LOVE ONE AT A TIME. You won’t know who or when but I will make sure that your precious friend is first. It won’t be today. I’ll wait until your Birthday Celebrations are over. Go on, ask Tristan, “if he can stop me”!

Bye “Steve”.

This was Stefano’s response to Ellarya for all her hard work taking care of Ary. He refused to pay her what he owed and ” The Voice ” within him shouted this out to her:

“Ellarya ” Go to HELL”. You’re not worth £5 let alone £15 million”.

Ellarya stood her ground and mailed off the invoices in ” the real world” to his Jurisprudence Keepers. Not one word of a response? OF course Tristan showed up! He always did, good , bad , indifferent, otherwise.

( Stefano, did not get , with this statement, he had released Ellarya from her promise; she never had to see or help Ary again. He did actually ,however, owe Ellarya and her family , for services, and broken promises and letting Ellarya basically raise her children with nothing but love and hard work and determination to build back what was lost due to his direct action by leaving her. Her being Elle , and he DUMPED , that tragedy of Ary on her. HE best bloody well get back to work! He had taken a very very long break! What an IDIOT, an ” OXY MORON”! ha ha! HA!

IF that dumb witted, half-baked pratt, thought “Coin” was going to keep Ellarya down. He damn well got that wrong! She was going to PRINT EVERY DAMN Blasted WORD!

( She still loved him! RIGHT! – Don’t tell him! )

Like, for Tristan it was “OK” – “I’m here tell me what is going on! Why am I here, and what are we gonna do about it to solve this, …man, always hitting that groove and vibe.”So, he would go on! Tristan , would take the time , make the time and show up. He always did ,when it came to Ellarya. She was never quite sure why. He would be her undoing . Tristan held the only key to Ellarya , not just her heart but her 7th EYE- he felt and saw her. Ary used this against them both ; only a pretense friend. Ary had lost her way in how to be a friend. Elle , always tried to compensate and assist her with that. She did her to care for her Prime . Elle was privileged and knew what had befallen Ary , when, she was still growing up. Unless of course , they had all lied about that too!. A Liar is a liar is a liar. But somehow, Elle , never felt that was the case. She was very very sad for Ary. The black cloud and hand of the Diablo 7 , its degenerate that lashed out FILTH.

Professionally, they all worked together., at one time or another. The Universe had made sure they were all together at every stage of their lifeforce years, one or all would be with one or the other of combinations there of. Tristan figured Ary was a gift from the Universe and admired and loved her gifts, beauty and talent. Everyone did , including Allura. Ary in her many disguises impersonated Tristan’s JPK and , decided that what ? ” she was going to teach Ellarya ” a lesson for shooting her mouth off”! Ellarya had written to many of the leaders and influencers of their age , asking for assistance in getting her friends to settle the DEBT owed to her. Ary ,was a JPK and she could do so because besides being an incredible ‘Artereest’ , she spoke several dialects of the different heritages and realms of our Magical World. She had a certificates in JPK, worked on digital artistry ; a Butterflariy of many , many talents and such beauty. )She threatened to take Ellarya to a “World Court” , far in the reaches of the Diablo Sect of our Universe. Twisted Friggin COW- Ellarya thought! I recognize you! Pretending to impersonate someone else!

Once more ,Ellarya , had to stand her ground and say, Go ahead- but before you do, just confirm your ID both of you. Tristan was out on his Rocky Road and probably indisposed and the JPK didn’t respond to either of Elle’s confirmation IDs; It was Ary- trying to play ” Creator of the Universe” so to speak., her narcissistic personality. She figured because she was a Dowager Prime, so she could get away with it all. Well , she was no longer a Prime. She gifted it away to Ellarya . Ellarya would learn , she was a PRIME , in her own right! However, Ary had been placed, in suspension, isolation in a Crystallized Honey Dew Containment Sphere. One she had temporarily captured Admiral Umbral Lord Stefano , in so many years before; the Creation she had cruelly used to show Ellarya her own entrapment by Giovanni in their previous life. They were all such good friends and literally loved each other until death figured would part them. Not this Circle of Friends, they were bound and set together by the Celestial 7 , counterbalanced by the Diablo 7 they possessed gifts, sight, spirit of the “magicka ! of the Universe. They could delve into dark and light practices as per their souls decreed. They engaged with creatures and fabulous magical abilities and they were all DRAKONRYDERS.

Stefano gave Ary, an ESI: Enlightenment Service Incentive payment. He gave it to her for her artistry work. She worked under a number of aliases. She had so many personalities that she worked under , one- would wonder about her split personality traits. She got payments for each one, not so split at all, just enough to be under the radar . She made lots of coin in different places, different worlds, different entities and it was pretended to be otherwise. Claiming hidden “fame”, utilizing poverty -all in one. This as the ” Ally ” reference in her attributes as a friend: subterfuge. Had a laugh at Ellarya , with her daily treks to THRC. Was it really that way ? Avoid taxes? but she was an “Artereest ” and didn’t pay any! Taxes everywhere even in fantasyland to quote a monsieur by the name of Oscar Wilde: ” one thing you can be sure of death and taxes” and so it seems in every world, realm, there are dues to pay of some sort or another. The Universe whether dark or light realms ,had an HMRC or IRS equivalent with someone in its own “Sheriff of Nottingham” position. Ary figured she could dupe them ! This was a very established and wealthy being, figured she would always be able to continue with her charade. She held enormous respect and huge income which came through in so many avenues, as well as her ESI, from Stefano . This was his kindness and caring endeavour to his “bonded” partner. ( Sadly, a lie- made up. Just for the ESI, which there was no entitlement. )

Ellarya , had real faith in Stefano. She never did stop believing in him, despite his cruel words and rant. He never looked at how much she went through just to help , get back to work. She took care of all his concerns with Ary, so the burden of taking care of her and all her “crapola” and baggage that she carried plus all her own heavy sluglike weight itself., would not feel like Atlas with the world on his shoulders. He could relax and create ! Elle just wanted to see her friend well and happy. The invoice would be suspended with love and grace in perpetuity. She just knew one day, he would ROCK UP and make it alright somehow. Elle’s children , begged her to stay away from Ary for sometime , before that final visit. IN fact it was at least 2 full orbits of the Rosedrop World around the Maypole Solar System in which they spun.

Stefano created and ran a special agency : the Bureau of Potions and Weapons : the BPW- here, his staff would work civil service agents to assure all the business side of things was done for him and that Ary got her ESI payments , even , though, she worked and didn’t really deserve them. Ary just thought as Prime she could continue to rip everyone off including Stefano and the BPW; her list of attributes growing: FRA: friendship, reliability and now an ally as well. Such a” good friend “to all and just “excellent”” at being Dowager, Kurgha Prime. Thankfully, she had a 2nd , who picked up the slack.

Regardless of the horrendous situations , Ellarya found herself in, she remained true to her Promise , despite the many moods and outbursts and aspects to the Admiral Umbral Lord Beaumont: she just loved him .In spite of his down right cruelty to her, she held onto that love she always had for him, this he knew. So, he ranted away! She let him.

The Blue Roses Order was a secret society and one that Lord Stefano, kept to himself. Within the Order , he was simply known as Steve. He kept himself humbled and tried to be plain when keeping company with the other members. The Truth is he was just too beautifully talented and his heart really wasn’t that mean at all. He was sweet and kind .He always loved Ellarya , of that she was sure , in her heart. He was older, she was younger and they had a funny odd friendship born not just out of their moms ‘ circle sisterhood, but mutual affection and respect for one another, each in their own right . They knew how to hit out and hurt one another. Elle had just had enough and she figured that sending the invoice , would just kick him into touch! Out of the ballpark actually. He lost it completely! She always knew the way , she was headed. This was her friend, coin didn’t matter. He mattered and that was the point she would make to him in the end. Let him sweat it out a bit first, just a little! She loved him with all her heart. She would never hurt him ,truly, ever! This he also knew! Typical!

The Blue Roses Order was basically a group of talented musicians and arteests who band themselves together to corner the different worldly markets and incomes and proceeds from these endeavours. They made their deals behind closed doors , the old boys , handshake deals and dominated the Opulent Universal Stage, flitting between domains, worlds and realms. Steve Beaumont , as he was known within the Order was quiet , humble, serene ,didn’t say much. HE was usually thinking or looking into his 7th EYE checking on things , but mostly to check on Elle , keeping his connection with her, as he had promised. When Steve spoke up: everyone stopped and listened. They would come together as if they ,”they were in one small world ” . Behind closed doors , in their special Domicallary meeting bunker. Those certain special moments of Steve , speaking out were pertinent. He had a lot of influence in performance and design., within his Order.

The Blue Roses Order, like all secret societies had its own greetings and good byes and ancient rituals of initiation and expulsion – if ever the case was needed! Boitrus and talented , the most talented ‘arteets ‘of the day, lots of egos , had to put a lid on it as there was so much Celebrity Sparkle and Glimmer ,in their Bunker. Really it was an old snobby “boys” club! Elle wanted to be a member! How to get in them walls, another chapter, down the road. It is actually , way down the road, like a highway to hell. One could feel all that buzz of electricity in the air with the sparkle and glimmer of them all. (7th EYE is playing AC/DC’s Highway to Hell)

Ultimately, Elle , just made peace with herself and them. She let it all go! She just figured that Steve was a being of his word , and one day he would just come and sort it all out. He had been so very ill ,at one stage, if she had one wish , it would be to see him well and working… all of which came to pass.

Into the past, down the portal into Steve’s Domed home : KELA AHETO, many moons ago, Elle went and found out about his place. Giovanni had just smashed it and him up and he had been recovering. Elle , had followed Giovanni , one time and found the secret back way in through the Portal Green and black and gold LadybirdFlairy.

The main room , had a high domed ceiling with a single crystal chandelier., like globed droplets. It was lightly coloured walls with the branches of the roots intertwined in neat rows. Simple plain light brown sofa and matching chairs, surrounding an open hearth, with an oval cobalt blue hessian carpet, much like the one in Ary’s THRC. Elle had sneaked in on this day and found him. Quiet and solemn. They were always very good friends.

He saw her , not in the least surprised she had come as they were always connected to one another’s distress. It would send out waves like a beacon and one would come to the other. As good friends do. On this particular day, though, both Steve and Elle were very upset. They weren’t quite their normal selves and they just turned to one another. It wasn’t rational or planned.

Steve and Elle were looking at the cool low blaze of the fire in the hearth. And as they became close and entwined they moved onto the blue cobalt oval shaped carpet. As they laid down with each other , enraptured and twinned together, they looked up and the celestial cool silver reflective mirror that was created from the oval carpet like the reflection of the South Sea . The Carpet was made with Cobalt blue seaweed from the South Seas. and had the power of reflection. It felt like they were rocking and riding on waves as they tumbled and turned and explored one another, in ways they had never planned. Steve decided this was their moment , the one time , they were going to be together . He had playing, in the background for her Pachelbel’s Canon in D, so whenever she heard it in the future , Ellarya would always remember their special moment in time together. He asked “can you FEEL me”? She replied “YES” and he kissed her deeply. The room was slightly smokey from the hearth. Yet there was a cool breeze that wafted over them. The scent of the South Seas prevailed. Steve continued intimately , to entice, tease and be with Elle ; their senses came alive and heightened – their moments togetherness, that went on and on and on and on, well into the night.

Aryswati Dowager watched the reflection as it glimmered and shimmered through her carpet in THRC. She was going to kill them both. She was going to have to get in line. Giovanni had seen Elle enter Steve’s place and not come out.

Elle’s drake , alerted her mother as to the Firey and deadly thoughts that were going on within the 7th eye of the Prime about her 2nd. The Prime felt betrayed and plotted. She plotted and decided she was going to join forces with Giovanni , to make Steve pay for his ” liaison” with Elle . PRIME Dowager Kurgha attribute of understanding was somewhat twisted. She was actually , always thus , a little bit! She didn’t treat Steve as a soulmate, and that was his dilemma , the afternoon Elle had found him, Ary had left him alone and chased him away again. Elle was disappointed in her own situation with Giovanni and went searching for her friend to get some simple relationship advice. She had seen him being chased away by Ary in her cruel and heartless manner. Ary had lied to Elle about many things ,, including Stefano. Her harsh feelings and treatment of Elle stemmed from her own inadequacies, as is usually the case. Ellarya was the one ,who had been betrayed.

Elle and Steve together tumbled and explored one another and tears fell between them. They spent that night together in each other’s company, opened arms to one another .The “magicka” of their moment had transformed them both into their humanoid forms to be together this one night of their forever. Elle with her darker Indus heritage , Stefano with his deep beautiful brown eyes with a hint of green, his dark straight black fine,soft hair. He was stunningly beautiful. Elle , referred to him as such. Steve nicknamed Elle ” Muffin” this night. She had come with a special gift for him and put it in a muffin box and when he opened it, he was so taken aback, he hugged and kissed her. They ended up within each other’s grasp. Elle brought Steve , something special, not unique just special for him, being with her , in her life. It was given with love and innocent idyllic affection.Steve treasured the thought , the sentiment and her. He hadn’t quite planned it this way. It just happened.

Ary hated Elle for this , she was so jealous! Green green and more poison ivy green with envy. Steve and Elle and dropped a pebble in the pond with their enamoured friendship and the waves that came after caused battles neither of them could have anticipated. The waves went out and cascaded to both sides of the pond and broke the timeline continuance between past and present lives. The future had been changed for both of them.

Retrospectively, if they could take it all back would they ? Probably they would but at that one moment in time, the world outside fell away and they just explored and laughed and enjoyed each other ,with tears, all the same because perhaps somewhere they crossed a line with each other that they shouldn’t have. And it was a line of fire they crossed and they crossed it together. (Typical, their mothers both knew this was going to happen; didn’t they ! Elle never saw it coming. Steve, in all honesty, didn’t either! thoughts aside , it just wasn’t in the cards to happen, or so they thought?wrong again? or was it ? )

How we got from this to the the last words , Steve uttered to Elle , was all Giovanni’s and Ary’s doing to ruin their friendship.

Elle was not going to let that happen.That is also part of the reason why she decided that she was going to suspend the invoice out of love and respect for Steve. Steve was either going to prove himself or not. Elle decided , he was a man of his word and that the pebble they had both thrown in the pond , had delivered waves that Steve just could not get past. Elle was going to trust her friend and she never ever did stop believing in him to this day. There was going to be a reckoning one way of another. Ellarya was sure of that. Steve when he thought about it , would take it all back if he could. Ellarya , not so much. She really did love him,no one cared but her about that. Maybe Stefano did , it was also one of the last things he said to her ” Muffin, I know you love me! AND- there was more. Of Course there is more!!) Was love going to conquer all ? Whose love? Elle , Stefano, Giovanni, Ary, JANKUS and Elle’s Rock, Her Honey Rock Royal Highness, himself: HrRH: General Brandyn and Jerrick ,our “players” thus far.

When Pachelbel’s Cannon in D plays, Elle stops , remembers Steve and tears always come to her eyes of that one night of ‘blessed’ solitude with her most beloved and best friend. When she flits along the pondside in Butterflairy Rose drop world , she listens to the waves and looks for the Blue Roses that remind her of Stefano, wishing him well and peace and good health where ever he is ,in the Blue Rose Order within our Rosedrop World and beyond. The Universe , heard Elle’s thoughts for her friend and sent him those warm tidings , something he always knew, he could count on and hold in his heart. Ellarya always had apart of his heart. Elle when she got so upset when nothing felt right , so betrayed and let down by them all, she figured that her love for him had left her…it hadn’t ,Steve would always be part of Elle’s heart, good , bad or otherwise. She really did just love him , in her 7th EYE , listen and perhaps you too will hear : Pachelbel’s Canon in D playing . Elle’s love for Stefano, saved his life. He was on the brink of passing on and she couldn’t let him go. She could not bear her world without him in it somewhere, she prayed to the GREAT DRAKES and pleaded with them to bring him back for her. Elle’s prayer was heard , Stefano ,did not pass under the Wheel and Blue Roses grew and the Celestial 7 picked up their instruments and sent out Pachelbel’s Canon in D for all to hear and they played , within the 7th EYE :Elle’s love for Stefano and not allowing his great spirit and beautiful talent to pass. She was and is a practicing a Herebral Alchemist Healer to this day, Prime as well. She remains protected due to her practice and position, the lies unleashed upon her and her offspring and for being true of heart in all she did for Ary, for all of them and for what she still does. ELLARYA as Prime , maintained that innocent and pureness of white , of magicka and believed in her world and what she was and represents: purity of heart, belief in all kinds, regardless of origin or creed of being and the preservation of the Natural “Green” Worlds of her Universe.

Walking along the seashore, waves lapping and the quiet serenity of that sound, the blue and purple , and array of splendid flowers of all sorts that randomly appear long the cliff sides and the Celestial 7 sounds of the 7th Eye playing one of her tunes for those loves in her life,still she held within her .

HrRH , General Tristan was granted Parian’s 25 lifeforce gifted years and re-bonded with Elle , declared ,all those Moons and passage of time, nearly 50 lifeforce years ago. Tristan of his own “free will” had searched out and found Elle in her new role and position and in doing so,set , into the Universe the reunification of their ties. Giovanni, being the Lord of the New Lands, had the ability to rescind the ties , however, if he did so he would simultaneously regenerate his lavender and white bonds with Ellarya for the past, present and future and in doing so this time- BIND them together into eternity being no way to break those bonds of hand fasted husband and wife again.

Elle had either Tristan or Giovanni , one or the other , now, bonded to her into Eternity. This was set in stone by her Prime Dowager Kurgha when her word was law: written in blood in stone and to make sure that Stefano could never possess , Elle , alone by herself and sabotage their friendship.

Elle had found a way , around that sabotage, very simply Elle loved Steve and was going to trust him to make things “right” in this life and leave those eternal bonds to sort themselves out one way or another.

Elle was still not quite sure why Tristan showed up again in her life. He still had that lovely smile and funny laugh and way of being that , in truth, he was one of the few beings in the Universe , Elle completely trusted and felt ” at home ” ! She loved him more than she ever cared to admit to himself, to herself, to anyone. There was no special song or moment beyond those thoughts of when she was only just 5 years of lifeforce age. She looked at him 50 lifeforce years on and had the same thought as did he reached out in word and pen to her and the Universe , the Celestial 7 put them together again. Their word in thoughts , the 7th Eye had been heard and they were put together, Tristan had shown Elle a ring. All she wanted, was him. She didn’t ask for coin or jewellery, just him and that is why it was granted! Tristan was the General and leader of the Royal Guard known as tKOSS: the Knights of Socrates Service. Tristan had a sworn duty to protect the Prime and her household. Elle had placed Parian’s family as Stewards in post in the Royal Household. Nana , Parian’s Grandma was acting figurehead for Elle. She was stern and kind and had given her blessing to her’s and Tristan’s marriage, a 2nd one for each of them. Tristan, that is Parian ( being one in the same Parian being Tristan’s lifeforce ) . Without Nana’s approval , this marriage could not have taken place. The guardian ladies of the Felines: ladies M & M ( Dhanya ,who and taken her position with a name change: Mirra and the previous prime before Ary: Marwen ,were more or less omnipresent , in their children’s lives and approved of the union and re-union of Parian and Ellarya.

As the Blue Moon approaches, Ellarya and Parian, have been re-united. This was, she is pretty sure, of it ,Ary’s doing, in her quest to seek revenge , she had put Parian with Tristan and Ellarya ,once again.

Elle had her protection of the Drakes as well , and as of the Blue Moon, Marwen. would re-join her. Shyvra would be without her Ryder , as of the Blue Moon, if the promises made are not kept. Ary, in seclusion and isolation until the debt settled , the Felines to pass over for the next 7 ages of time.

Time ticked by with a racingly slow speed with anticipation- dragging one minute, hours gone by the next.

Giovanni, looked into his 7th EYE, his plans for Ellarya , had not changed and The Drakes were going to be awoken. With fire and fury ,and old dark rituals , not , used, for many a Century. Giovanni, was going to test those dark rituals with his hand – fast wife. If what he had been taught was true, Elle would always be bound to him , through the dark ties of his binding which he passed to her their Wedding Night The Diablo 7 were not letting go of the Cherished Child quite yet. Giovanni remained their agent due to his fury was going bind her to him in darkness instead of light.

The Diabo 7’s ladder hit the sides of its double helix, and AC/ DC’s Highway to Hell, then Hell’s Bells played. Pachelbel’s Canon in D was still playing, it finished . The Celestial 7 began to play Beethoven’s 9th Symphony, with his Ode to Joy.( Wonderful ” flash mobs” to see ,for this particular piece ). Peace and calmness and retaining her inner light was one way, Elle would be able to over come. “Ode to Joy” played on, composed by one of this Universe Greatest Talents still heard over 250 lifeforce years beyond its Premiere : BEETHOVEN!

“I THINK I WILL JUST DESTROY EVERYTHING YOU LOVE ONE AT A TIME.”- Steve would have to start with himself. Ellarya would never let that happen. Through the Great Drakes restoration of lifeforce she gave him back what was lost with love and let him “create” his Artistry for all to enjoy. All She ever did was love him and be his friend, and she let him be free to create ,not to destroy . For as her mother had said, it was the little “Duances! ” of life that mattered in the end.

“Muffin” loved Steve and just let him be💜🌹💋💜

The Dragons Eye is like a mirror and reflects the Celestial / Diablo Activities of White and Dark Light. The Dragons are Guardians and have their own language and rules but live within the Butterflairy Tree and our Rosedrop World and by Free Will guard the Prime and all within her Circle for life. This is a duty once sworn is not broken. The duty dies with the dragon’s passing not the DrakonRyder as we call them in this tale. To see and believe in Dragons, is to see and believe in Unicorns. Just as you see the magical creatures of Light , one can also see and feel those beings of darkness. To see and feel both you need to keep the faith, never stop believing and make sure you don’t miss anything, within your 7th Eye.

Ellarya’s Drake, Mymsha felt her happiness and Gio’s sheer Glee. Shyvra her mother , Ary’s Drake was nervous- The Prime was angry with herself for allowing Elle and Gio up into the Butterflairy Tree – Front Trunk Room.All the same, she really did not have the right to stop them or come between them in any way- one of the ancient rules.

The Front Trunk Room of the Butterflairy Tree was just exquisite. It was simple, it had the wood panelling of a Eucalyptus Rainbow Tree and that divine soothing scent mixed with sandalwood.

The side wall to the right as you entered had a large cotton poofy wool bed that had twigs around with bedside knobbles as side tables. There was a large sunken central circular pool that had the heated and scented salty rosedrop water that filtered down from the tree leaves above. The Silver Reflective Mirrors were placed all around the room in Geometrical formations that made the Honeydew drop Crystals sparkle like Gems against the Rainbow Eucalyptus Panelling. The bathroom to the side of the entrance which was at the back of the tree trunk hidden was a smaller daintier version of Ary Prime’s Bathroom accept the flowers were Purply Blue Forget me Nots. There was a small parlour beyond the pool to recline and continue relaxation “therapies” , if one so desired.

It was a month on, since Gio took Ellarya out Dancing. He went and got her from her work at her new position as a Herebral Alchemist and whisked her away from Ary after only one cup of Rouge Rose hip Tea and scurried her back to the Dragons Alcove and up into the Trunk of the Tree and out the top once more. This time , he had a meal prepared for her with a splendid array of simple seafood horderves, her favourite with lots of salady tidbits that he knew she would like. Dandelion Wine from a friend’s homemade store. The music he had playing when they danced this time was Por Una Cabeza. To this day when Elle hears that song,she thinks of that night and tears fall. She just loved him so very him ,so very much. With this food and dance, Ellarya was granted by the Celestial 7 , the privilege of remembering one of their past lives as husband and wife. They were on an Island that was like a Greek Paradise, they lived in a simple cottage just the two of them. Gio was a cobbler and Ellarya was a cook , they met when Gio came to the local bakery and ran into her. He kept running into her. She was not from around those parts she was from the Indus Valley, had a darkened complexion with brown eyes and black curly hair with slightly darkened plump lips and a simple cream Sari and light sandals that just blew him away. He had his blue eyes , his golden hair and simple kaki shorts with a cream t shirt. They looked like they belonged together from that first meeting. Gio eventually asked her out and they courted and had a simple marriage in the local Church. Families delighted they lived their lives and adopted an orphan girl . Life passed , they had a very happy marriage .Died in each other’s arms one night , not bearing to be parted from one another, with the promise to meet again in another life. To always come together one way or another once on the same plain and the Universe heard their wish as they passed and granted the couple their dying wish as per the old ways.

The Celestial 7 , knew they could not interfere, no one is supposed to interfere with man and wife , regardless of the time, the century, that had evolved. That was the life they let her see. The one they tried to keep from her , or , so they thought was the one where Gio was a Prince. Ellarya fell into enemy arms and was delivered back to him for a fee. He locked her in a dungeon. She was pregnant with his twins – a boy and a girl .Prince Gio had one of his personnel tailors help her ESCAPE and offer her shelter with a poisonous drink and food, which put them all to rest that night.. The staff , Ellarya used to walk out the dungeon door was formulated over time a rope from plant vines . Gio kept that staff with him . He never let it go and it was transported with him to his next life. Elle had fallen pregnant before her Capture. Gio saw that when she was returned to him – she lived in a bubble- the dungeon was of sheer obsidian glass – thin enough and clear enough to be like a fishbowl with only a small wooden divider for privacy for personal care. He thought her Capture was a Betrayal of him and her fault . He ended her life. The twins were his ; Elle was not violated in her period away from him and she never betrayed him in any of their lives or time together ever. Giovanni had a cruel and dark side to him that depending on his life , role , position would find its way to Ellarya for or against her . But whatever way they were as far as Gio was concerned , no matter the life – Elle would always be his one way of another. He would not EVER let her go and he decided if she ever betrayed him with any thought or deed he would take steps to always make sure that she knew it was him that literally loved her to death. And this was Ary’s fear Gio would take “her Elle” away from her. IT was not friendship or a care for Elle that was the root of this fear , it simply , loosing the ” slave ” person she had procured in Elle. Ary knew that Giovanni could appear of light yet be dark and no one knew when and if he would flip. He could remain light and no one would ever be hurt. That bond between Ellarya and Gio could not be broken unless there was a previous bond taken in the lifetime before Giovanni came to claim her as his. There was the ” get out of jail ” card for Elle .She had to be have a prior bond to be released from Gio, or it was thought.

Elle had not seen Tristan or Admiral Beaumont for many years ,as she began her courtship with Gio, so , she was decided she was free to be with him. Ary continually tried to dissuade them from using the room and sneaking in and out of the Butterflairy Tree but to no avail. Giovanni always managed to get around that. Ellarya did not mind or resist when he pulled her to him.

After their dinner and dance, The Auoras just glowed and sang out , as Gio brought Ellarya back to the Butterflairy Tree within the confines of the Trunk, he asked her if she would agree to be his hand-fasted wife. Sbe agreed. He tied her hand with a white ribbon and he gave Elle , a light lavender one to tie around him. The threads had 3 specific strands- one for the past, one for the present and one for the future.

They emerged as a hand – fasted engaged couple. No one was really happy for them. Their parents were worried and Gio’s Mum pointed out he had another wife and family. He laughed and said that he was going to have both and as things were he had his family in his ” real “world and Ellarya , in his flairytale one. Elle loved him blindly. His mother didn’t quite get how he was going to manage, Gio did and that is all that mattered.

Tristan heard and with a Rocky Road trip booked he would have to make re- arrangements to come back and get her before their engagement became official which meant after 11 days , they would be hand- fasted man and wife. Admiral Stefano was in his home studio recording and had no idea what was taking place. If he had, he would have stopped it. He and Gio were cousins and their mothers were sisters and Stefano knew all about Gio’s flip switch personality and once more he knew about their past lives and how Gio felt about Elle and that he could hurt her if he felt betrayed – even if it wasn’t true.

Kurgha Prime would have to perform the hand tying ceremony for them ,as her duty. The 11 days passed and the Ceremony -hand – fast, hand tied man and wife . They were both very happy. Gio kept his lives and his wives separate so there would be no jealousy or hard feelings. He had children and wanted more with Ellarya, so she could never leave him and be bound to him one way or another.

The ceremony took place in the Sacred Alcove with the Drakes as witnesses. Kurgha Prime, then allowed them up into the Front Trunk Room for their honeymoon. The room had special fireflies that buzzed the colours of the rainbow and they hummed some the world’s greatest music from the Classical List that was formed Easter time every year. Ellarya’s wings shone brightly of purply with her silver and gold sparkles . Gio was golden and lovely but Ellarya noted something slightly different of him. his ” appendage” was like a scorpion’s tail. It dawned on her, the Scpn, Gio was part Scorpion as Stefano was part Scarab, warlock and fairy powers too.

Gio had anticipated Elle’s wedding night with him from the very start and he had always said he was the one to educate her in the Front Trunk Room of the Butterflairy Tree. He had his salamander guarding their bed, it had curled around the headboard of the bed onto the side tables as guardian to assure no one disturbed them. She guessed it was Drake protection features.

Gio laid her down and was so very gentle. Ellarya noted a small ancient staff , by the drake protection feature. At that moment of climax- explosion and pleasure he changed, the scorpion appendage released . Ellarya felt shearing pleasure and pain. At that moment she remembered her Prince and the feeling of falling, just falling and it went dark. She remembered her staff which she had just seen . Gio kissed her and bit down on her lip. He then flipped her over , turned her every which way assuring, feeling and being with him was intense. ! Satisfied and “done” for the time being , Gio then kissed Elle again and got up. He had transformed into his humanoid form as had Ellarya and they were as they forms from their first marriage together. He asked if she enjoyed being with him once again. All their memories together restored to them both. With tears, streaming down her face and blood dripping down her inner thigh and her lip ; she moved slowly and gently and kissed him. She did not answer him but the encounter had also changed her . She remembered their twins , the staff made from plant vines. She laughed at Gio and turned him around and pushed him back onto the bed. The bed which was now a full Superking sized bed with a Dark Dragon at his head and her staff beside him. This was Gio’s Dragon and this would not be their last encounter. Ellarya would meet Gio’s Drake, Alagron again under very different circumstances. The Fireflies had also changed into smaller versions and breathed out fire and ice. Ellarya looked at her hand -fasted husband and changed. Her Antennae had turned to Red horns with black tips that glowed red gold and orange silver .Her Prince, as she also remembered him, looked at her as the silhouette of her voluptuous form, just as he remembered her , she spread her wings which dripped with blood and fire .Elle’s form was bruised and on fire and as the tears streamed and fire and blood and sweat dripped from her she laughed at him. She snapped her devil’s forked tail like a whip. And whirled it around over his head , flicking it at his ears, so he could hear the snap and feel the whoosh and wonder where she was going to place it next. She caught his gaze and he froze- literally froze. His wings had spread out , with icicle formation , like waves of scales over them and his steel cold blue eyes gave her an icy iron – clad blue stare with anticipation , how dare you ? Did she ? She had frozen him. The Magicka of the Drakes and the Butterflairy Tree itself had transformed into a full size Red Wood Cedar Tree with Lavender base and the room inside and its occupants were now of Elvian humanoid fairy form and could enter the” Real World” that is why the Dragons and Prime guarded it- it was a metamorphic tree with transformation properties the trigger was extreme emotion; pleasure and pain. Gio’s venomous release had caused them both to metamorphose and the tree itself to transform. Who knew, only the Drakes this was their Magkica and not even the Prime knew until it ,for whatever reason ,was triggered No one else knew until it happened to them and of course held to secrecy by the very nature of what took place. Kurgha Prime and Admiral Stefano wept as they were bonded ; they both felt the transformation and the 7th eye showed them what had taken place in less than a nanosecond. Admiral Stefano wept for Ellarya .The Kurgha Prime was JEALOUS. Her sheer inner darkness , starting to break through to the surface. She wept out of spite and plain old fashioned -green eyed monster :Jealousy. Privacy was maintained, and the flutter lanes shuddered. The Rosedrop and “Real “worlds shook all night long; a thunderstruck storm rained down as volts of electricity pumped through the blood in their veins.

Gio frozen with in his glory standing to attention; his blonde , blued eyed self and ” Gorgeous “with his masculinity ,frozen and poised. She just looked at him and answered “YOUR TURN”! Ellarya , once again used plant vines, from the Butterflairy tree and tied him down. He was frozen and needed to be thawed out; it was time for her FIRE to meet his ICE. The Fireflies played Ravel’s Bolero for them.

NO one saw them for 2 weeks. When they came out Tristan was sat on one of the purple mushrooms crying. He looked at Elle and wept. She was furious with him. She had not seen or heard from him in more than 5 years . She was slightly alarmed that he was crying with such heartbreak ache. They had returned to the Rosedrop Butterflairy World in their Butterflairy forms and the Butterflairy Tree was back being small and petite and quaint, with its pond and band of mushrooms beside it where Tristan and perched himself, waiting for Ellarya .

Ellarya had transformed with a new type of romantic darkness within her. Giovanni was the only one who would ever see that side of her as he used his Venom to transform her! This was the lesson that Giovanni was so desperate to share with his hand- fast wife :first and foremost- HE was to be the one and only to teach her NEVER to betray him in any lifetime EVER! Giovanni had held that essence of feeling betrayed and how very much he actually loved her and he also knew the power of transformation of the Butterflairy Tree itself. The thought of what it and he was going to do to Ellarya brought a smile to his face every time because he could see it and feel her with him in his 7th Eye . He just loved her completely in his own old fashioned way. Elle and Giovanni brought together the sizzle of fire and ice meeting every time they were together as man and wife. This marriage lasted off and on for many years to come. Even when it came to its violent end, no one was sure if they were truly completely finished with each other. Their love was of the type that was beyond INFINITY, endless in time and space and thrived on dark and light elements within them both.
