anwhile, inside the Mystic Starry Realm, Asher laid his unconscious sister onto a bed and placed a warm blanket over her body.
He then proceeded to remove his tattered clothes and wear a set of new, clean ones. They were made from soft, white silk, which felt cool against his skin, helping him relax sowhat after the tense monts he had experienced.
As Asher took a deep breath, he sat beside Alia on the bed, stroking her long, purple hair gently.
Her breathing was steady, and her face looked peaceful. She looked so beautiful and delicate in this mont that Asher couldn't help but feel a strong urge to protect her.
However, he knew that she wasn't soone who needed protection. She was much stronger than anyone else around her age. After all, she had a unique constitution that allowed her to absorb spirit essence into her body directly from the world itself. This ant that she had no need to cultivate like others did.
Yet, that very sa ability was the reason why she couldn't be by his side, for she needed to stay isolated from the outside world to control her power. As a child, her body wasn't able to handle this amount of spirit essence, causing her to lose control and cause massive damage to the Blake Family grounds.
It was a relief that she didn't kill anyone, but considering her elent affinity, she could have wiped out the whole mortal city if it weren't for Aria, who was with them at the ti. Aria protected everyone from her sister's uncontrolled elent, and even after that, Alia was still taken away to a faraway place.
Asher could rember that mont like it just happened yesterday. He rembered how sad she was to leave them. Her tears fell uncontrollably from her purple eyes as she looked back at Asher. She wanted to be with him, but she couldn't, as she feared that her power would one day hurt him.
Soon, Asher closed his eyes, allowing his emotions to calm down and his heart to settle. He needed to focus on the present rather than dwell on the past. There was no point in reminiscing about things that could not be changed.
He needed to make sure that Alia wouldn't ever end up in that kind of situation again. He imagined how hard it was for her to control her powers and what she had to go through while being stuck in a dark, cold room.
And so he wanted to give her everything she deserved. He wanted to give her happiness and joy, and most of all, he wanted her to know that he would always be there for her whenever she needed him.
'I'll make sure that you won't feel lonely again, Big Sis, Alia,' Asher thought, 'I promise that you'll be able to enjoy the happiness you deserve.'
With these thoughts in mind, he opened up his eyes once more and looked at his sister's sleeping figure before cradling her in his arms and hugging her tight. He then placed a gentle kiss on her forehead and whispered softly in her ear, "Sleep well, Big Sis."
***
When Alia woke up, she found herself lying in a comfortable bed in a cozy room, surrounded by soft pillows and warm blankets. The curtains were drawn shut, blocking out the light, but there was still enough light for her to see clearly.
It didn't take her long to notice Asher sleeping beside her. He had an arm wrapped around her waist while his other hand held hers.
The gentle look in his eyes as he smiled at her made Alia's heart skip a beat, and she felt a warm feeling rise from deep within her chest. This feeling made her smile back at him and snuggle closer to his chest, pressing her head against him.
She rembered what she was doing with his little brother and felt a wave of heat wash over her as she recalled the pleasure she experienced with him. The mory of it made her blush even more.
"Good morning, Big Sis. Did you sleep well?" Asher asked as he stroked Alia's long, purple hair with one hand.
Alia loved this feeling and gave a light nod while still looking into Asher's blue eyes. "Yes, Little Ash."
However, the very next mont, her eyes sharpened as she looked at him. "Little Ash, what did you do to ? Why was I feeling like I was drowning in pleasure? Not to ntion that I also lost consciousness after you did sothing to my soul. Explain!"
Alia's voice contained a hint of anger mixed with confusion, which made Asher flinch slightly. But he didn't say anything and simply stared into her purple eyes, his expression calm and unreadable.
A mont passed by in silence before Alia spoke again. "Why aren't you saying anything?"
"I know you're angry and confused right now. But please believe when I say that I had no choice but to do that. If I hadn't done what I did, then there's a chance that you would've done sothing that you'd regret later. And I couldn't let that happen."
Asher said this with a sincere tone, hoping that she'd understand his actions and forgive him.
"You an I will regret hurting soone who stole my little brother away from ?" Alia asked coldly as she narrowed her eyes at him. "Why would I regret it?"
Her words felt like a sharp dagger piercing through his heart, making his blood run cold. He knew that this wasn't just so casual question.
No, she was serious about her question.
He could see it in her eyes. She was angry, furious even, but more importantly, she was hurt. She felt betrayed by soone who ant everything to her. It was as though her entire world was collapsing around her, leaving her alone in a void with nothing to cling to.
The pain in her voice struck him hard. It was a pain he had never experienced before, like an invisible force squeezing his heart so tight that it felt like it would burst any second now.
But Asher didn't show any outward signs of weakness. Instead, he maintained calm composure while looking into her eyes. "I know that it's hard for you to believe right now, but please try to calm down and listen to carefully."
He paused for a mont before continuing.
"You were right. I did find other won I love, and they have stolen my heart. They've made happy in a way that I never imagined possible. They've given sothing I've never had before. But, Big Sis, I've never loved you any less. I love you.
I always have. I always will. You're my twin sister. We were born together, and we've grown up together. I've known you my whole life. I've known you better than anyone else in this world.
And even though I've found soone else to love, that doesn't an I don't love you anymore. I still love you. You're still important to , just like you've always been. That won't change, no matter what happens. You will always be my precious Big Sis."
As Asher said this, Alia's anger didn't subside, as she was still unable to accept what he was saying.
It was as if there was a wall between them now, separating them from each other forever.
