Uriel's consciousness was transported to the mystical realm, more specifically, to Water warlock's lair. The young archaeology student opened his eyes and saw the smooth stone bricks similar to the Mayan architecture, but the design was different.
"What is this place?" He asked, his voice echoed in the chamber.
"Ah! What are you doing here!?" Water warlock was startled and hid the Lewd Ladies magazine behind his back.
"That's funny, I wanted to ask you the sa thing." Uriel said with an unamused tone of voice.
"I am the mighty..."
"Yes, yes, I know that already. Now tell what I want to know." Uriel cut the ancient almighty being inside his body short.

"I answer no questions, puny human."
"I thought you'd say sothing like that, but you see, I ca prepared. If you don't spill the beans, I'll kill Nika."
"You wouldn't..."
"I would kill her."
"You can't!"
"I can kill her."
"Stop saying that." Just hearing Uriel say those words got him anxious.
"What? That I will kill Nika?"
"I don't care about her, you can do whatever you want, just don't say it in front of ." Water warlock looked the other way trying to hide how uncomfortable he was by the thought of Nika getting killed.
"So it's true. The reason why I started having this weird feelings is because these are your feelings."
Water warlock looked defeated, he wondered when did things start going wrong in his life. Was it when he created the orichalcum dagger? Was it when he caused the universal deluge? Or was it when he allowed his best friend marry the woman he loved so many eons ago? There were no answers for him and the only thing he could do was to accept his fate and try to make the most of it.
He dropped his antsy attitude and beca a lot more calm, sothing that reminded Uriel of himself back when he cleared his mind to think better.
"You are correct, the sacrifice you perford linked us both. I know you rembered that I ate your heart, but what you forgot was that you ate mine too. Our feelings are swapped and let tell you, this is the most terrible punishnt for such a noble being like myself."
"Let get this straight, if I activate the blessing your feelings start becoming mine and mine beco yours?"
"Sothing of the sorts. You offered your feelings to , the sa as I offered mine to whoever picked the dagger. This is so sort of possession, the more you use my energy the more you beco like ."
"Does the sa apply to you?" Uriel said as small shimring particles started coming out of his hands.
"It seems you're running out of ti," Water warlock said with a smirk and then continued. "Buy another toy at your museum, one strong enough to withstand my consciousness and we'll be able to speak again. Also, if you find out the whereabouts of my people and what happened to them, I promise I'll give you back your feelings."
"No, wait! I have many more questions."
"You do, but you're also dying. What's more important, to know all the answers or to live another day?"

Uriel's body tossed and turned the whole ti he was on the mystical realm and dusa held him close to her chest to bring him so comfort as she knew he was most likely facing the dreadful creature that inhabited his body.
She placed her hand on Uriel's sweaty forehead expecting it to be cold, but it was the exact opposite. It was so cold, had it not been for his constant movent and the unintelligible words that ca out of his mouth in a coarse voice, she might have thought he was dead already.
Uriel beca rigid for a mont and then he opened his eyes like nothing happened.
"Did you see its plate?"
"What plate? What are you talking about?"
"The truck that ran over." He said faintly.
"Stop ssing around, I was really worried about you." She said teary eyed as she stroked his forehead, combing his hair all the way back with her soft fingers.
"I'm sorry for worrying you."
"So, how did it go?"
"Not great, but not bad either. At least I know what I need to do next... I guess."
"Did you... get your feelings back?" She asked with a glimr of hope in her crimson eyes, but Uriel shook his head. Only then did she realize her blouse was still unbuttoned and Uriel was resting his head directly on her bra which caused her to fall into a daze. She didn't mind it, but she didn't want Uriel to think she was trying to make a move on him or sothing.
"Does this bother you?" Uriel shook his head so more just to tease her.
"N-no." She blushed in red hot embarrassnt.
"It's what you get for almost killing . And also, this..." Uriel looked her directly on the eye and placed his hand on the back of her neck, drawing her close to him without using any force at all. dusa unconsciously followed the movent until her lips landed directly on his' and they remained like that as though fearing to break the mont with a sudden movent.
It wasn't the usual peck on the cheek, but it sohow transmitted the sa tenderness and intimacy they shared. They softly rubbed their lips until ti beca aningless
When the kiss ended, dusa heaved a long breath that sounded almost like a faint moan. Steam ca out of her mouth and it was as though a spell was broken and they were suddenly back to reality.
"I learned my lesson." Uriel said as he stood up to gather his belongings.
"What lesson?" dusa asked, still srized by the beautiful mont they shared.
"I will never again bet with you." He chuckled.
Even if his feelings hadn't yet returned, dusa knew there was sothing of the old Uriel in that kiss. She touched her lips with a hand and grabbed Uriel's hand with the other, intertwining her fingers into his.
