This was rushed, Sorry…
Chapter Four: Into the Pisces Temple
"Pisces Albafica," Gleed breathed.
Virgo straightened and went in front of the female to hide her then inclined his head. "Hello, Pisces," he greeted.
The pretty male smiled. "Hello, Virgo. What are you doing in the Aquarius Temple?" he asked.
"I may ask you the same thing."
"I am here to give Degel some of my roses. He requested them a week ago."
Shion's chocolate brown orbs landed on the female hiding behind the other blonde. He could see her cheeks being tainted with pink. "Leave it there and you may go," Shion muttered, almost coldly.
Gleed, hearing why the pretty male came, stepped out of her hiding place and curtsied to Albafica. "Those are very beautiful," she commented with a small smile. "The scent of the flowers relaxes the body and eases the mind."
The blue haired male blinked a couple of times before chuckling. "Yes they are," he agreed and placed it on the table next to him. "They are as beautiful as the one that I am looking at."
The angel blushed. "I-I am not," she whispered.
Kneeling down, the gold saint took Gleed's hand and kissed the back of it. "Shall I show you my garden," he offered.
Both blondes was about to protest when the female answered with a soft yes.
Beaming, the male stood up again, still holding the female's hand. "May I borrow Miss Gleed for a while?" he asked his co-saints.
"Sure," Shion stated between gritted teeth.
"As long as you give her back in time," Virgo smiled mirthfully.
The Pisces saint nodded and led the female into the next temple.
Once the two were out of earshot, Ares gave a frustrated growl.
"You are jealous, Ares Shion," the blind saint muttered. He gave out a sigh before facing his companion.
"I am not jealous," the brown eyed male muttered, punching the table where the flowers were. The poor wooden table could not bear the saint's force so it broke into two, letting the roses fall with it. "Why would I be jealous?" he demanded.
"You couldn't have time with her," Virgo simply replied.
Shion was about to protest but the Virgo saint started to talk again. "I may be blind but I could feel the emotions of my fellow gold saints. You are attracted by Miss Gleed."
The Ares saint kept quiet and started thinking about what the other stated. "Yeah," he whispered, agreeing. "I am attracted."
"Don't worry, Ares Shion," Virgo smiled. "Pisces Albafica is not attracted to Miss Gleed. He is attracted to the Aquarius saint."
Shion's eyes widened. "What?" he demanded.
"Albafica is~!"
"Gleed!" The Ares saint yelled and was about to dash to the Pisces Temple but was stopped by a grinning Leo.
"Shion-sama," the young lion greeted. "We have to help the silver saints in their training," he stated and pulled the blonde down.
Shion started protesting but it landed on deaf ears. "I have to~!"
"Just go with them, Ares Shion," Virgo interrupted. "It might ease your paranoia."
Gleed gasped as she stared at the blooming field of roses in the Pisces Temple's garden. "I never imagined it to be like this."
Albafica chuckled. "Beautiful as it might be, they are still poisonous."
Violet eyes stared at him in wonder, making the saint blush. "How do remove them?" she asked curiously.
"I have to take in the poison. It might hurt a bit but it is worth it," he replied. He again stared at the field of roses. "Only Degel could appreciate the effects of the roses. I am glad."
Gleed blushed. She cleared her throat, getting the Pisces' attention. "Do-do you li-like Degel?" she asked. She immediately covered her mouth after her statement.
Albafica blinked a few times before laughing. "I like him. And I wish these feelings would stop," he chuckled. "I also wish that he is a female so that I could~!"
The female near him fell on her side. Eyes closed, trembling violently, skin turning pale… Albafica's eyes widened. She inhaled the poison of his plants. He felt the kiss of the breeze, as if caressing his soft skin. Immediately, he took Gleed to the safety of his temple. "I am so sorry, Miss Gleed," he apologized as he placed her on his bed.
Gleed gave a soft moan before settling on the soft bed. Her eyes opened then gave a smile. "I should have covered my nose," she murmured weakly.
Albafica smiled sadly. "Let us remove the toxin in your body. You are going to have to drink my blood," he murmured. Gleed closed her eyes and took a shuddering breath. Albafica, not taking his eyes on the angel, was about to cut his finger then an idea came to him. "You almost look like Degel," he commented.
Gleed grunted. "Everyone has a counterpart," she replied.
The Pisces saint was very much intrigued. He bit his lips until it bled. His cyan blue orbs dilated as his head went closer to hers.
Alarmed, Gleed knew what the gold saint was thinking. "This is bad," she thought. All rational thoughts flew out of the window when a pair of lips touched hers.
"You have to open your mouth so that you could drink the antidote," Albafica murmured. He licked the lower part of her lips, making the female shudder.
Gleed hesitantly opened her mouth and let the male do whatever he wants. Tasting the metallic flavor of blood, her shaking stopped and the pain she was feeling eased. "I am better now," she whispered.
Albafica still kept his lips on hers. Feeling something cold in his lips, he opened his eyes to gaze at violet orbs. Letting go of the female, the male stared at her in horror. "I am so sorry, Miss Gleed!" he panicked.
Gleed touched her blood splotched lips. She smiled and licked the remaining red substance off, making the male groan in yearning. "My," she started. "I got carried away."
Albafica smiled and sat next to her. "Let us go back to where the others are. I might do something that I will regret," he stated.
Gleed, remembering that she was once a male, nodded. She suddenly stood up, making her woozy and land into the Pisces' lap. She apologized and again stood up.
Thank Zeus there was a metal guard on Albafica's crotch. The blue haired beauty also stood up but with pain.
Next Chapter: Found Out. Everyone finds out that Gleed is really Degel. Will it stop the Goldies from harassing her?
